Beyond the Survivor: The Impact of Conflict-Related Sexual Violence on Families of Women Survivors in Northern Uganda
REFNo: SS36ES
The objective of this research project is to assess Ugandan women’s experiences of conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV), explore how CRSV experiences affect family members, and evaluate current response programs to survivors. The overall goal is to provide evidence that can inform better response programming to CRSV survivors, and their family members. This project will address the following aims and research questions (R):\r\nAMI 1: Gain a better understanding of the experiences of CRSV survivors and families of survivors \r\nFrom the perspective of CRSV survivors\r\nR1a. How has the experience of CRSV affected the physical, psychological, and social well-being of women survivors living in post-conflict regions of northern Uganda?\r\no R1b. How do women survivors in northern Uganda think their CRSV experience has affected their relationship with their family?\r\no R1c. What kind of support, including response services, do survivors in northern Uganda seek or/and find the most helpful? \r\nFrom the perspective of families of CRSV survivors \r\no R1d. How do family members of CRSV survivors in northern Uganda think the experience has affected their relationship with the survivor? \r\no R1e. How has the presence of a CRSV survivor in the family affected the internal dynamics of the household? \r\no R1f. What kind of support or services related to CRSV experience did family members seek (if any) or would have liked to access?\r\nAIM 2 Estimate the costs of programs and their potential impact\r\no R2a. What are the main types of health services that organizations provide? \r\no R2b. What are the types of outcome measures are used by organizations that provide health services to survivors of CRSV in northern Uganda? \r\no R2c. How do programs measure effectiveness? \r\no R2d. Which programs or interventions are cost-effective, and what are their characteristics? \r\n

An Assessment Of Entomological Diversity And The Effect of Organic Coffee Farming on Biodiversity In South Western Uganda Along A National Park Gradient.
REFNo: NS63ES
We will go to Bwindi Forest Farm in Uganda to investigate the effects on agro- organic farming. This will be done to analyse what best ways to conserve nature amidst a growing population taking up more space for settlement and agriculture. Here we will look at how effective organic coffee farming is compared to conventional farming in terms of biodiversity seen, incorporation of pollinators and the reduction of coffee's worst enemy, the coffee borer beetle. In this case you will help to support a project where data is collected about renewal of conventional farming into a more agro-organic approach.
Project 1 - One of our goals is to investigate how well it is to practice organic farming in relation to conventional agriculture as regards to what supports biodiversity best. In relation to this, we will do some specific studies on the entomologi around organic and conventionel coffee plantations as coffee has a huge economic and cultural significance worldwide. This will be done during the dry season running from september till November and during the rainy season running from November til December. Project 2 - In this project, we look at one of the coffee plant's biggest enemies, Coffee Borer Beetle, which is a pest that drills into coffee beans and lays eggs in it. These beetles have some enemies, which are parasitoid wasps that naturally fight these pests. Here we will examine whether organic or conventional coffee cultivation is most effective in the natural control of these pests, and in this context where the greatest biodiversity of these wasps occurs. The collection of coffee berries will be done 30 different coffee plants on different conventional and organic farms. This will be done during harvest season of ripe coffee berries in October and as well when the immature green berries show up to see if there are seasonal differences in pest presence. Project 3 - In addition, we will look at the effect of organically grown coffee on pollinators of the plant, such as bees, and the conditions that best benefit them. This is done as the number of pollinators worldwide is in decrease, which is a huge problem since pollination- dependent crops, such as the coffee plant, contribute 35 percent of the global crop production volume. This can have a huge impact on the yield and quality of the product, depending on whether it is an organic or conventional farm. This follows the same timeline as project 1.

Imagining Gender Futures in Uganda (IMAGENU) Project
REFNo: SS301ES
The overall purpose of this project is to enhance research capacity by generating new knowledge about how changing patterns of gender partnerships relate to livelihood, education, and reproductive and mental health. This will contribute to the development of relevant social gender policies, and create debate in the wider public.
The specific objectives are to explore the following research questions, which constitute Work Packages.
1. How do men and women imagine futures of marriage and child filiation in light of current far reaching changes in patterns of partnership?
2. How are gendered livelihood possibilities affected by changes in partnership and child filiation?
3. How do patterns of gendered reproductive and mental health affect and reflect changing patterns of partnership?
4. How are changing partnership patterns related to education?

Digitizing Revenue Collection in Northern Uganda
REFNo: SS456ES
This project studies the introduction of a digital tax assessment and collection system into local tax administration in Northern Uganda. We will partner with the UNCDF and Ministry of Local Government to measure the impacts of the digitized system on the process of tax assessment and revenue collections relative to a status quo manual registration and collection system. To study how the digital system affects the accuracy of tax assessment, the research team will conduct independent, objective assessments of
taxpayers and match them to official records. This exercise will provide an opportunity to shed light on how gaps in assessment accuracy correlate with tax compliance to investigate how accuracy and perceived fairness in the
assessment step of taxation impact payment and revenues.
