SCALING-UP HELPING BABIES BREA...THE QUALITY IMPROVEMENT CYCLE (HBB-QIC) AT DISTRICT LEVEL IN NEPAL

Scaling-up Helping Babies Brea...the Quality Improvement Cycle (HBB-QIC) at district level in Nepal
more
|
To further accelerate the rate... of reduction of early neonatal mortality and intrapartum stillbirths a simplified neonatal resuscitation protocol: Helping Babies Breathe (HBB) has been developed, which has been shown to reduce intra-partum deaths by about 50%. There is however a need to evaluate different implementation strategies that promote retention of resuscitation skills and facilitate translation of knowledge into clinical practice, and to scale-up such implementation strategies. We have previously successfully completed an implementation trial of HBB at a tertiary hospital in Kathmandu, Nepal. The HBB protocol was complemented by a Quality Improvement Cycle strategy (QIC) and displayed good retention of skills and significant changes in clinical practice. We now propose a scale-up study at district level of the HBB-QIC concept. The research project till apply a stepped-wedge cluster-randomized controlled design at eight (8) district hospital in different regions of Nepal. To ensure good health and survival for all is at the core of the development research agenda and this project addresses a neglected area with great potential for improvement. With a successful scale-up strategy the HBB-QIC concept can potentially have far-reaching consequences and make a huge contribution to the efforts to reduce the burden of intrapartum deaths.

New chronic health challenges:... Cardiovascular diseases and diabetes in a high-burden HIV population in Uganda - risks, prevention and treatment opport
more
|
The global burden of disease i...s shifting from infectious disease to non-communicable diseases related to lifestyle such as cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and diabetes. NCDs now make up the most common cause of death, also in low-income countries. At the same time, increased access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) means that people living with HIV (PLHIV) are living longer lives, and studies from high-income countries indicate that PLHIV are at increased risk of NCDs, and especially CVDs. Health systems in sub-Saharan Africa, where 70% of PLHIV live, are not adequately prepared to tackle the upcoming NCD burden and specifically not the huge double burden caused by HIV and NCDs. This research proposes to specifically look into the role of HIV infection (low-grade chronic inflammation, added effect of ART, in relation to CVD. Rakai is a population-based open cohort based in 50 villages in Uganda where data in migration, cause of death, socioeconomic variables and HIV is collected annually in 20000 individuals since 1994. This study adds information on NCD risk factors (smoking, BMI, blood glucose), arterial stiffness and blood pressure. Screening tools for NCDs and risk scores used to classify CVD and diabetes risk will be evaluated for use in low-income settings for the first time. By understanding the role of HIV in NCDs, and correctly assessing the risk of NCDs in PLHIV, integrated treatment and care strategies can be formulated and implemented in resource-poor health systems.

A RAPID AND SIMPLE METHOD FOR ...DIAGNOSIS OF TUBERCULOSIS

|
A rapid and simple method for ...diagnosis of tuberculosis
more
|
Background: Despite the enormo...us global burden of tuberculosis (TB), present tests for diagnosis of TB have severe limitations, and none are of the most urgently needed point-of-care (POC) type of tests. We have previously developed a simple, inexpensive test for diagnosis of TB based on detection of mycobacterial lipoarabinomannan (LAM) in urine. The test format we used however had suboptimal sensitivity for routine clinical use. We have now increased the sensitivity of the test a 100-fold, using monoclonal antibodies with extremely high avidity, and increasing the signal by using new nanotechnology techniques, making it an extremely promising platform for rapid TB diagnosis. Aim: The central aim of this application is to assess the performance of the test prototype for diagnosis of TB in distinct clinical trials, both in high endemic (South Africa and Mozambique) and low endemic (Sweden and Portugal) countries, with particular emphasis on children and patients with/without HIV co-infection. Our second aim is to develop our test into a POC triage test, able to distinguish individuals who need referral for further confirmatory testing. Significance: A better diagnostic test would improve the detection rate and consequently decrease the transmission and spread of the TB pandemic in resource poor settings.

NEW NATURAL PRODUCT BASED ENTR...IES TO TREATMENT OF BACTERIAL RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS
more
|
New natural product based entr...ies to treatment of bacterial respiratory tract infections
more
|
Expanding the library of broad...-spectrum antibiotics is a central component of combating bacterial respiratory tract infections. By extension, this pursuit is also directed at poverty reduction in the developing world as it is intrinsically linked to infectious diseases. To this end, the proposed project aims at advancing natural products with known activity against multi-drug resistant bacteria towards clinical relevance. We will develop efficient chemical syntheses (total and semi-synthetic routes) to access compounds that are not available through other means for biological and mechanistic investigation. The mechanistic work will be used to guide the development of improved and/or simplified structural analogs that can be used at a lower cost. Understanding how to rationally design complex phenylalanine mimetics and oleane triterpenoid structures in this context provides entries to rational development of new generations of small molecule antibiotics working through the same mechanism. The work is enabled by an interdisciplinary collaboration between synthetic chemists in Sweden and Uganda, natural product chemists in Mexico, and microbiologists in South Africa.

PORTABLE DIAGNOSTICS FOR DISEA...SE AND DRUG RESISTANCE WITH FOCUS ON MALARIA AND BACTERIAL INFECTIONS
more
|
Portable diagnostics for disea...se and drug resistance with focus on malaria and bacterial infections
more
|
We will develop a novel type o...f diagnostic tool for malaria and bacterial infections that addresses the urgent need for quick diagnosis and the following biomedical questions that are difficult or impossible to address using current techniques: drug resistance, genotypic variants and mixed infections. Our novel tool consists of a combination of two recently developed methods. Cell-phone based fluorescence microscopy will be used to replace expensive standard fluorescence microscopy and to enable the widespread use of our diagnosis platform. The fluorescence microscope will be used to directly visualize fluorescent patterns along individual DNA molecules stretched in nanofluidic channels. With each molecule analyzed individually, no cell culturing nor any DNA amplification is necessary. The work will take place in an international collaboration. We have collaborators at Glasgow University who are well-known specialists in parasitology and collaborators at Karolinska that are experts in infections by bacteria resistant to antibiotics. For the development of the cellphone based fluorescence microscope we will collaborate with a group at UCLA who is the leading pioneer of simple to use and low-cost alternatives to standard microscopy. To ensure that our technology will be designed with the end-user in mind and during the later phase of the project tested under realistic conditions we will engage several researchers who are stationed in the affected countries in Africa and Asia.

Help Desk on health - Help Des...k on Global health
more
|
The goal of Sweden's global de...velopment policy is a fair and sustainable global development and to create conditions for better living conditions for people living in poverty and oppression. Health is both a prerequisite for and a result of development. Although health in the world has improved, successes are uneven where the poorest countries, and most vulnerable groups, lag behind. The questions have strong, often direct links to conflict threats, human rights, equality, the environment and climate change, as well as the degree of democratic social structure. Poor people generally have fewer opportunities to act or defend themselves when disasters are a fact.In order to meet these challenges, Sida has worked actively with various support functions in various forms, including: MR, environment, gender, education, etc. Global health and SRHR helpdesk is such a support structure. The Swedish Government's direct governance of Sida among other things Through regulatory letters, assignments and strategies, over time, changed priorities for Sida's work overall.The counseling function requires a broad and profound expertise in health and SRHR, across a large number of countries and sectors, as well as a good understanding of how cross-related issues such as gender, conflict, DEMO / MR, environment and climate relate to these. The function also requires good knowledge of Swedish development cooperation, governing documents, aid instruments and operational work, and how support for health programs and dialogue works. The effort is relevant to all the objectives of the Global Strategy for Global Sustainability Development Strategy 2014-2017, as well as about ten other bilateral and regional cooperation strategies.

Ultrafiltration membranes base...d cellulose nanomaterials from argiciultural waste; Sustainable cleaning of water
more
|
The project aims at utilizatio...n of agricultural residues for preparation of cellulosic nanomaterials and their applications in water treatment. For this purpose, some agricultural residues will be used as a source for isolation of cellulosic nanomaterials with different technologies available at the Swedish and Egyptian partners. Technologies available at the Swedish side include ultra-fine grinding, high pressure homogenization, and electro-spinning while the Egyptian side will use chemical/mechanical methods using high shear homogenizers. Different parameters will be studied to optimize the isolation of cellulosic nanomaterials regarding the yield and properties. The isolated nanomaterials will be y characterized using different tools including SEM, TEM, AFM, XRD, FTIR, surface charge, elemental analyses, and microbial resistance. The isolated nanomaterials will be assembled in form of ultrafiltration membranes with tailor made structure to study their use for water treatment. The membranes will be characterized regarding their structure, porosity, pore size, density, mechanical properties and surface characteristics.The project will be implemented in three years. The first year will involve isolation of nanomaterials and their characterization; the second and third year will involve application of the isolated of the nanomaterials for assembling membranes and testing their efficiency for water purification.

DIAKONIA FRAME 2016-2020
|
Diakonia frame 2016-2020
|
This programme is implemented ...during a five-year period (as framework organizations may now apply for grants for longer periods than in the past in order to increase aid effectiveness) and it is based on Diakonia's global strategy for 2015-2020. It includes 21 country programs in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East, and six regional programs and a new global program for innovation in the area of social and economic justice. Diakonia is working through local civil society organizations for the overall goal to change unfair structures that generate and uphold inequality, oppression and violence and to work for fulfilment of the right of all people to live a life in dignity. In total 216 partner organizations are included in this application. Operations are focused on the following six areas: human rights (HR), democracy, equality, social and economic justice, conflict and justice, as well as capacity development of partners. What is new compared to the previous contribution is primarily the inclusion of several new regional programs in various areas as well as the global innovation program.Expected results:General expected results are formulated for the six areas. These are linked to the expected results for each program (i.e. by country / regional / global program), which in many cases consist of a selection of results that are identical to the general results. The results at the program level are concretized through indicators.Examples of expected outcomes, one from each region, in some common thematic areas are:Mali: Women's political participation has been strengthened at the local and national levels (democracy)Bolivia: Gender-based violence has decreased (gender equality)Bangladesh: The conditions for decent work and fair income have improved (social and economic justice)Lebanon: The capacity of Diakonia's partners to integrate environment and conflict sensitivity in their work (where relevant) has been improved. (capacity development)Previous results:Reports often show results in terms of strengthened rights holders and increased capacity of partner organizations.The following examples show previous results in a few areas:Human rights: In Thailand five partner organizations assisted tens of thousands of stateless persons to obtain legal status. This means that they for example have the right to work and study, as well as to access rights-based services.Democracy: In Mali, partner organizations were trained in citizen budget monitoring and analysis of public policies. This has led to increased budgets for health and education in several municipalities. In one province all municipalities published their accounting in 2014, whereas in 2012 none of the municipalities did.Conflict and Justice: Seven partner organizations in Colombia, Honduras and Peru have increased their knowledge of the legal framework and have taken legal action, which in some cases resulted in the return to communities of pieces of land from extractive companies.T

A clinical scoring tool for po...int-of-care diagnosis of tuberculosis - a cluster randomized trial for the use of TBscore
more
|
The WHO estimate that at least... 3 million people with tuberculosis (TB) remain undiagnosed. In a previous network project between Sweden, Ethiopia, Denmark and Guinea Bissau, we have developed a clinical scoring tool (TBscore) aimed for low resource settings, which may increase the diagnostic yield of TB. The tool is an immediately assessable clinical index which accurately describes the risk of active TB disease and mortality prognosis, requiring only limited training and no use of expensive reagents. We plan to conduct a cluster-randomised trial in 2017-19 at health care facilities in Ethiopia and Guinea Bissau to evaluate the TBscore for increasing the diagnostic yield of TB among TB suspects compared with standard care. The main outcomes will be increase in number of patients diagnosed with TB compared with baseline and standard care in nonintervention clinics and 6-month mortality. A central part is to maintain the link in the network which will be a strong benefit for all partners and will enable this multi-center randomized trial and build capacity for future clinical trials. The interaction will involve several capacity building parts such as training of post docs and PhD students as well as training in TB diagnosis, GCP and statistical methods. New case finding strategies adopted for high endemic areas are essential in order to reach the goal of reducing TB world-wide.

OUTDOOR AND HOUSEHOLD AIR POLL...UTION-EXPOSURE AND EFFECTS ON PREGNANT WOMEN IN AFRICA

|
Outdoor and household air poll...ution-exposure and effects on pregnant women in Africa
more
|
In 2012, one in eight deaths w...orldwide resulted from air pollution. For Africa lack of data is a barrier to estimate effects. Satellite images indicate detrimental levels, but monitoring and high resolution outdoor air pollution modelling is lacking. Household air pollution is also a major source of exposure, more knowledge on how different cook stoves, fuels and habits affect exposure is crucial. No high quality study of the effect of outdoor and indoor air pollution on pregnant women in Africa has so far been conducted. We will investigate consequences of air pollution in a prospective cohort of women recruited during pregnancy at public health facilities in Ethiopia. Outdoor air pollution will be assessed by high quality modelling which combines measurements with Geographical Information System tools and aerial and topographical imaging. Individual exposure will be linked to the model by residential address. Indoor exposure will be assessed by questionnaires and validated by measurements. Emission factors from different fuels and cooking methods, and particle characteristics will be assessed in our Aerosol Lab in Lund. Data on pregnancy outcomes, exposures and confounders will be compiled and epidemiological studies on the effect of outdoor and household air pollution on pregnancy complications will be done. This study, which will increase knowledge of not only health impact but also of source characteristics, will provide important knowledge for appropriate policy making.

The initiative is an inception... phase for a long-term project of market systems development that will contribute to indigenous women and young people's economic empowerment in Guatemala. The results of the inception phase will form the basis for a full-scale project proposal for the economic inclusion of traditionally excluded groups in the Alta Verapaz region. The topics that will be examined through the contribution are indigenous women and youth's: (a) the socio-economic situation, (b) development opportunities such as education, c) access to funding, d) access to self-support for auto-employment; d) job-opportunities with decent working conditions, e) opportunities for improved living conditions through improved working conditions. The contribution aim at studying how the gap between the target group's skills and competencies that the market requires can be reduced, how the local economy in Alta Verapaz can be strengthened and how to increase access to sexual and reproductive health and rights for the target group. The result of the contribution will form the basis of a multiannual market systems development project aimed at improving the living conditions of indigenous women and young people through economic inclusion and increased access to sexual and reproductive health and rights.

|
Social and cultural dimensions... of the recent Ebola outbreak in West Africa: Ontological friction and the ills of 'western witchcraft'
more
|
The recent Ebola epidemic in W...est Africa was one of the worst public health crises in modern history. A major problem contributing to its rapid spread and tragic consequences was the widespread belief in afflicted communities that the epidemic was caused by foreign sorcery and that biomedical relief teams sent in to control the disease were actually spreading the disease rather than combatting it. As a result, the emergency response teams met with strong and sometimes violent resistance from local communities, significantly hampering the Ebola eradication effort. The present project aims to explore (1) the reasons for this widespread resistance to the eradication effort and, particularly, its association with witchcraft/sorcery, and (2) why sorcery allegations were primarily directed against foreign medical personnel to the point that afflicted communities perceived themselves to be victims of 'western sorcery'? The project will run for three years and involve anthropological fieldwork and extensive library research. Fieldwork will be carried out in Guinea and involve participatory observation, collection of illness narratives, case studies of sorcery allegations and interviews with recovered patients and afflicted families, local health workers, traditional healers and members of international Ebola response teams. No similar comprehensive study of the Ebola epidemic has been carried out.

A clinical scoring tool for po...int-of-care diagnosis of tuberculosis - a cluster randomized trial for the use of TBscore
more
|
The WHO estimate that at least... 3 million people with tuberculosis (TB) remain undiagnosed. In a previous network project between Sweden, Ethiopia, Denmark and Guinea Bissau, we have developed a clinical scoring tool (TBscore) aimed for low resource settings, which may increase the diagnostic yield of TB. The tool is an immediately assessable clinical index which accurately describes the risk of active TB disease and mortality prognosis, requiring only limited training and no use of expensive reagents. We plan to conduct a cluster-randomised trial in 2017-19 at health care facilities in Ethiopia and Guinea Bissau to evaluate the TBscore for increasing the diagnostic yield of TB among TB suspects compared with standard care. The main outcomes will be increase in number of patients diagnosed with TB compared with baseline and standard care in nonintervention clinics and 6-month mortality. A central part is to maintain the link in the network which will be a strong benefit for all partners and will enable this multi-center randomized trial and build capacity for future clinical trials. The interaction will involve several capacity building parts such as training of post docs and PhD students as well as training in TB diagnosis, GCP and statistical methods. New case finding strategies adopted for high endemic areas are essential in order to reach the goal of reducing TB world-wide.

Black carbon and tropospheric ...ozone in rural India: Implications for health, agriculture and sustainable development in a changing climate
more
|
The Indo Gangnetic plain, IGP,... (North India) is exposed to one of the most severe regional air pollutions situation on Earth. It is also, here, effects of air pollution on vegetation, human health and regional climate cause excessive misery to a vulnerable population. Here the accuracy of ecosystem services and cost-benefit models would be most appreciated due to limited resources available for mitigation action on air pollution and climate change. Today, Sweden is emphasizing the co-benefit of actions on short lived climate air pollutants such as black carbon and ozone. The overall aims of this project are to understand the presence, environmental effects and variability of the short-lived climate forcers black carbon (BC) and ozone (O3) by long term measurements combined with intensive campaigns to elucidate the relevant processes involved in rural India. The characterization of the rural air masses will be linked to laboratory experiments using state-of-the-art facilities to elucidate the chemical processes. In addition to improve modeling tools to assess the influences of biomass burning-driven air pollutants on agriculture and sustainable development, the project will ultimately pave the way to formulate life-improving environmental policies for poverty-stricken populations across the Indian subcontinent and beyond. The knowledge achieved will be delivered to schools and farming communities using the extensive networks of our partners in India.

Child labor and school attenda...nce in India
more
|
This project has three broad a...reas of focus: the role of market imperfections in the decision to send a child to work or to school, the impact of a compulsory schooling law on child labor and school enrollment, and an understanding the medium-run effects of child labor participation on outcomes such as education, household income and health. While both theoretical and empirical models will be utilized, the primary focus of this project is empirical. The data come from a large, representative panel of households in India, namely the IHDS-I and IHDS-II. This project will contribute to the literature by expanding the current understanding of how credit market imperfections interact with land and labor market imperfections in child labor and schooling decisions, by conducting a rigorous evaluation of the compulsory schooling law, and by adding to the research on the effects of child labor on future outcomes. The analysis will include a group of children that are often excluded from similar research, namely children involved in own household domestic work. This has important gender ramifications, as this category is dominated by girls. Further, the research into the role of household composition on child activities has a strong gender component. A deeper understanding of the factors that contribute to the choice of child activity, and the effects of policies aimed at increasing school attendance are crucial to the aim of eliminating child labor and achieving universal literacy.

|
Development of bio-inspired ca...talysts for oxidative degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater
more
|
This project is devoted to the... development of new molecular transition metal catalysts for the oxidation of persistent pollutants, with the aim of developing applications of the catalysts to waste water treatment. The catalysts will emulate essential aspects of biological oxygenase enzymes that utilize dioxygen to oxidize hydrocarbons. There is a great interest in mimicking the reactivity of monooxygenase enzymes (catalyzing the prototypical reaction R-H + O2 + 2H+ + 2e- -> ROH + H2O) and dioxygenases (that catalyze R + O2 -> RO2). In the present research project, focus will be put on the development of non-heme iron complexes that can oxidize alkanes, alkenes and alcohols (especially phenols and polyphenols, which are commonly encountered pollutants/xenobiotics in water, vide infra) into corresponding oxygenated compounds in green catalytic transformations, employing cheap and environmentally benign oxidants – ideally O2. The research will target (i) iron complexes of pentadentate ligands, designed to generate Fe(IV)=O complexes (ii) iron complexes of tetradentate ligands, designed to generate Fe(V)- or Fe(IV)-oxo-hydroxo oxidants, as well as reactive Fe(III)-OOH precursors (iii) iron(II) complexes of tetradentate ligands in the presence of sacrificial reductants that enable the complexes to activate dioxygen and generate iron-oxygen (Fe(II)-OOH, Fe(III)-OOH, Fe(IV)-oxo, Fe(IV)-oxo-hydroxo, Fe(V)-oxo-hydroxo) oxidants.

THE ROLE OF NATIVE BEES IN REN...DERING POLLINATION SERVICES AND FARM INCOME AUGMENTATION IN THE WESTERN GHATS LANDSCAPE, INDIA
more
|
The role of native bees in ren...dering pollination services and farm income augmentation in the Western Ghats landscape, India
more
|
In this project we propose to ...assess and value pollination by bees as an ecosystem service and for farm income augmentation in the Western Ghats landscape, in India. Habitat fragmentation has led to a reduction in pollinator communities worldwide but different pollinators are affected to different degrees. The Western Ghats are ione of the "hottest biodiversity hotspots" in the world. Our aim is to examine how the different native bee species utilize patchy, modified habitats, and to identify bee species that can cope with habitat modification. We will quantify the economic value of pollination services for small and marginal farmers, and develop strategies for the conservation of bees and thereby, augmenting farm incomes. This will be one of the first studies of effects of landscape structure on pollination services in the Asian tropics. Objective 1: To examine the role of landscape structure on foraging distances and navigation by social bees ranging from large carpenter bees, the Asian giant honeybee to the tiny stingless bees ( in structurally simple landscapes and in structurally complex landscapes. Objective 2: To examine the efficiency of native bee species as pollinators in agricultural landscapes and the effects of experimental augmentation of native bee colonies on crop yields in small farm holdings. Objective 3: To compare foraging performance of the western honeybee Apis mellifera and the native species Apis cerana on important wild and crop species.

SUSTAINABLE SMALL SCALE PRODUC...TION OF ENERGY FROM BIOMASS WASTE PRODUCTS.
more
|
Sustainable small scale produc...tion of energy from biomass waste products.
more
|
Developing countries are very ...dependent on biomass combustion for local energy production. New low cost energy resources, such as rice husk, straw and coconut shell briquettes are needed since wood has become scarce and the price increases continuously. Unfortunately the new energy resources accelerate the problem with high concentrations of particles and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. WHO states that air pollution is the largest single environmental health risk and most severe is the household pollution due to indoor smoke from cooking fuel. The objective of this project is to develop better understanding of how soot particles are formed in biomass combustion, how they burn in the fire and how the resulting ash can be removed from the exhaust. At Gadjah Mada University in Indonesia we will do experimental studies of how briquettes of different design will burn and form soot. At Chalmers University we will focus on how soot particles burn in the fire and can be trapped downstream. The co-workers in Indonesia have experience in briquette manufacturing and small scale biomass combustion. The group at Chalmers has experience in Computational Fluid Dynamics and in removing and burning particles in diesel exhaust. The combined knowledge will lead to new understanding and design concepts that can be used for making new stoves and furnaces with low emissions.

Metagenomics investigation to ...assess anthropogenic impact on West Indian Ocean coral reefs. An indicator of coral reef health.
more
|
Coral reefs provide most of th...e food for coastal communities in the Western Indian Ocean (WIO), often leading to over-use. Metagenomics studies have shown how pathogenic bacteria, viruses and human activities affect both exploited and unexploited species populations, community structureand ecological processes on coral reefs and thus, acts as a barometer of overall reef health. However, the WIO region lacks metagenomics capacity and cannot assess the status of their marine resources to ensure sustainable management for both conventional and hitherto unidentified potential new resources.Modern DNA sequencing, bioinformatics and metagenomics are changing approaches in biological sciences. Vast amounts of data generated are now stored in huge databases for interpretation and simultaneous manipulation of multiple gene sequences on an unprecedented scale. So, emphasis is shifting from single entities to the analysis of interactions within whole populations andcomplex networks that control biological systems, such as coral reef ecologies. This provides insights and new opportunities to tailor research goals for improved production and guide conservation and sustainable use of biological resources. This project will build capacity in next generation sequencing,bioinformatics and metagenomics and also assess the impact of human activities on coral reef ecosystem health in Kenya and Mauritius so as to inform policies and local communities on its sustainable use.

|
Control of Streptococcus agala...ctiae to reduce subclinical mastitis in pastoralist camel herds in Kenya.
more
|
Pastoralists play an important... role in mitigating climate change and also contribute highly to food security in the drylands that cover half the surface of the earth. They produce milk and other livestock products, for consumption and also as a regular source of income. In Kenya, camel milk attracts high price and is an important prerequisite for family survival both in the dryland and peri-urban areas. The development of the national camel milk sector is hindered by several constraints, of which mastitis is a key factor. Subclinical mastitis caused by Streptococcus agalactiae significantly reduces the milk yield. In cattle, S. agalactiae is controlled by simple measures such as grouping animals due to risk of transmission. These strategies have not been tested for camels in extensive herds.The purpose of the study is to develop strategies to reduce subclinical mastitis and eradicate S. agalactiae in pastoralist camel herds. The aims are to identify routes of transmission for S. agalactiae, and risk factors for subclinical mastitis, and to evaluate the impact of control measures in herds. The aims will be achieved through bilateral cooperation between Swedish and Kenyan partners. Part of the project is a prevalence study with clinical examination, sampling, interviews (participatory epidemiology) etcetera in 40 pastoralist camel herds. The second part is a longitudinal study over two years with regular visits in five herds to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of improved milking management measures.Isolation of S. agalactiae in samples will be performed using simple and robust field methods, and characterization of the isolates using advanced molecular biology.

Exploration of East African He...rbal Resources to Control Major Health Challenges
more
|
This study will make use of Ea...st African indigenous knowledge for the application of natural resources to control the major health and societal challenges malaria, tuberculosis and bacterial infections. Following an ethnomedical survey, traditional medicines and medicinal plants will be collected in Kenya and Tanzania. Their constituents will be isolated, and identified by NMR and MS analyses. The bioactivity of the extracts and the isolated constituents will be determined using cell-based assays. Standardized preparation techniques ensuring enrichment of the antiplasmodial, antitubercular or antibiotic and removal of the toxic ingredients will be established, along with the development of a methodology for rapid automated analysis of complex herbal extracts. These will be transferred to East Africa. The biochemical pathways targeted by the most promising bioactive substances will be identified by chemical genomics. Advanced NMR methods will be used to identify the binding mode of the substances to their protein targets to support their development into drugs. Besides achieving high scientific goals, the project aims the multidisciplinary training of African MSc and PhD students, and the establishment of a validation center for ethnomedicines at two African universities. It will support domestication of medicinal plants, facilitate the economic development of East Africa by strategic knowledge transfer and by supporting the local cottage industry, and increase patient safety.

THE EVERYDAY PRACTICE OF PAYIN...G TAXES IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA

|
The Everyday Practice of Payin...g Taxes in Sub-Saharan Africa
more
|
Why do citizens pay taxes? Thi...s question is surprisingly underexplored. Understanding when citizens pay taxes and why they find it relevant and purposeful is central for answering this question. Tax compliance is a major concern in developing countries and particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, in order to reduce dependency of foreign aid and increase state revenues for providing adequate health, educational and infrastructural services for their populations. In a nutshell, taxes are needed to build capable states that can provide for their citizens. Remarkably, taxation has not figured centrally on the agenda among scholars working on statebuilding in Africa or the African voter. Determinants of willingness to pay taxes in developing countries need to be scrutinized using an insiders' perspective of what it means to be a tax payer on an everyday basis across different socioeconomic groups. This project expands on current explanations through focusing on the social practice of taxes; when, how and where taxation occurs and how this practice forms part of the everyday for ordinary citizens. This is studied through an ethnographic study of the practices surrounding tax payment in three cases in Sub-Saharan Africa (Lesotho, Tanzania and Zambia), where the willingness to pay taxes and the relative tax burden vary. A comparative micro-study of citizens' experience with taxes, using interviews and observations, will reveal the room for building a tax paying culture.

WOMEN, WAR TRAUMA, AND PEACE B...UILDING: GENDERED ATTITUDES IN SIERRA LEONE AND LIBERIA

|
Women, War Trauma, and Peace B...uilding: Gendered Attitudes in Sierra Leone and Liberia
more
|
The 'women and peace' hypothes...is has long been an important influence in both scholarly and popular thinking around gender and conflict, suggesting that women hold more pacific attitudes than men. However, this hypothesis has until recently never been studied in countries that have been torn by internal armed conflict. Building on findings from a recent study on Rwanda, the present proposal suggests, counter to the hypothesis, that due to the different types and levels of trauma exposure women and men are subjected to in war, women will have significantly more negative attitudes than men to issues of relevance for peacebuilding. In essence, we suggest that there is a gendered effect on peacebuilding attitudes that go through exposure to war-related trauma and psychological health. Using a cross-disciplinary approach, combining peace research with psychology, this project will conduct surveys, focus groups, and in depth interviews in Sierra Leone and Liberia, to explore the challenges of and attitudes towards post-conflict peacebuilding among women and men. The project will make a unique contribution theoretically but also practically by increasing our knowledge of women's and men's experiences of and attitudes to peacebuilding in post-conflict settings, and the reasons for these attitudes, which will provide critical information for understanding the challenges of peace-building, and ultimately for improving the prospects for peace.

SOCIAL AND CULTURAL DIMENSIONS... OF THE RECENT EBOLA OUTBREAK IN WEST AFRICA: ONTOLOGICAL FRICTION AND THE ILLS OF 'WESTERN WITCHCRAFT'

|
Social and cultural dimensions... of the recent Ebola outbreak in West Africa: Ontological friction and the ills of 'western witchcraft'
more
|
The recent Ebola epidemic in W...est Africa was one of the worst public health crises in modern history. A major problem contributing to its rapid spread and tragic consequences was the widespread belief in afflicted communities that the epidemic was caused by foreign sorcery and that biomedical relief teams sent in to control the disease were actually spreading the disease rather than combatting it. As a result, the emergency response teams met with strong and sometimes violent resistance from local communities, significantly hampering the Ebola eradication effort. The present project aims to explore (1) the reasons for this widespread resistance to the eradication effort and, particularly, its association with witchcraft/sorcery, and (2) why sorcery allegations were primarily directed against foreign medical personnel to the point that afflicted communities perceived themselves to be victims of 'western sorcery'? The project will run for three years and involve anthropological fieldwork and extensive library research. Fieldwork will be carried out in Guinea and involve participatory observation, collection of illness narratives, case studies of sorcery allegations and interviews with recovered patients and afflicted families, local health workers, traditional healers and members of international Ebola response teams. No similar comprehensive study of the Ebola epidemic has been carried out.

Reference is given to agreemen...t AA_52090074 with the Ministry of Public Works, Liberia (Ministry of Public Works, MPW) onThe implementation of the Liberia Swedish Feeder Road Project (LSFRP) 3 'project in Liberia with the amount of 197 million SEK during the period 2017-2021.The effort aims at improving the opportunities for poor people to improve theirliving conditions and income by building rural roads that (a) enablesmall-scale farmers to market their agricultural products; (b) facilitate delivery ofsocial services especially in the health and education sectors and (c) to createincome opportunities for young men and women in rural areas.As part of the operation, a procurement of an international project implementation consultant (TA) is included. The procurement is conducted by Minstry of Public Works (MPW), supported by PWC procurement consultant. Due to the weaknesses of MPW, the need to strengthen the Tender Evaluation Team with additional technical capacity during the Tender Evaluation Phase has arisen. Opportunity to cover the need for own resources is not available. Tender evaluation is expected to take place between 17 October 2017 and 1 November 2017. As a consequence, there is a need to directly procure the consultancy service. Special urgency is considered to be particular reasons for the direct procurement according to LOU. Applicable framework agreement in the area is not available.

Mali is one of the most risk-e...xposed and vulnerable countries in the world, and many of the risks are related to the quality and quantity of ecosystems and natural resources, air and water pollution, climate variability and change. Two thirds of the population live in rural areas and 80% of the country's population subsist on small-scale farming with low productivity due to unsustainable agricultural practices, degraded natural resources and climate change. Inadequate basic infrastructure, low education and rudimentary system food production are all causes of chronic food and nutrition insecurity that affects much of the population. Poverty, chronic malnutrition among children, the general vulnerability and low resilience to drought and other environmental and climate challenges stress the need to strengthen the population's capacity to deal with external shocks. The situation has been further exacerbated by recurrent conflict and the country is undergoing a peace and reconciliation process following the recent conflict that broke out in 2012. In view of this it is important in the Malian context to focus on supporting the transition from emergency humanitarian efforts to medium and long term sustainable development with local ownership.ACF's three-year intervention with a budget of 78 million SEK is aimed at strengthening the resilience of the most vulnerable people in the cercles of Timbuktu and Kita. These two areas have been identified on the basis of indicators related to food security and nutritional vulnerability. The initiative aims to improve vulnerable households' food security and livelihoods through increased food production, improved household incomes and reduced vulnerability to disasters by implementing a multisector strategy, which include improved food security and income opportunities, increased access to clean water and sanitation, health, hygiene and nutrition.The project focuses on four strategic results that together will lead to the fulfilment of the overall objective:R1: The causes of food and nutrition insecurity, vulnerabilities and disaster risks are analysedand monitoring improved.R2: The vulnerabilities related to disaster risks and the food and nutrition insecurity arereduced.R3: The local capacity for adaptation and preparedness of households and communities arestrengthened.R4: Advocacy actions and sharing experiences for building resilience are conducted at localand national levels.Furthermore, this effort is a relevant complement to Sida's humanitarian efforts and the earlier resilience support the Embassy implemented during the crisis of 2012. The planned support will bridge the immediate emergency needs to several different aspects of long-term resilience, including income generation, diversification of livelihoods, nutrition and food security .The intervention is also in line with the Malian government's development goals in line with the poverty reduction strategy (CSCRP). It is also relevant to the action pla

The overall objective of the 2...015–2019 country programme is to support the Government of Mali to increase equitable access to basic social services, strengthen the resilience of communities, support service delivery systems and promote policies and budgets that are sensitive to the situation of the most disadvantaged groups and children, while ensuring a better transition from humanitarian action to development.The Country Programme includes eight outcome areas that will seek to reduce the bottlenecks that limit communities' access to and utilisation of services, particularly the most disadvantaged rural communities. The outcome areas are: Health, Nutrition, Equitable access to quality basic education, Water, sanitation and hygiene, Child protection and Social policy and inclusion. These components are complemented by Cross-sectorial support programme which includes four sub-components: 1) Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation; 2) Communication for Development (C4D); 3) External Communication and Partnerships and 4) Emergency coordination and strategy for the North. An additional area is cross-sectorial costs which covers costs related to supplies, logistics, operation of area offices, and administrative and operating expenses.The Embassy has supported UNICEF Child Protection component since 2005 with a thematic contribution. During the eruption of the 2012 multidimensional crisis with political instability, worsened security situation and increased food insecurity, the 2008-2012 Country Programme was shifted to respond both to the complex emergency situation and development intervention in areas relatively less affected by the crisis. To respond to this situation, the Embassy decided to expand the contribution towards the component 'Young Child Survival and Development'. This support to the UNICEF previous country programme ended on June 2014. In addition, the Embassy has financed UNICEF WASH-program during the period 2013-2015 which will end this year. The Embassy has an overall positive experience from the cooperation and is therefore planning to continue the cooperation and to extend with the area of Social Policy and inclusion.Sweden will support three of the eight outcomes areas: a) Child Protection; b) Water, sanitation and hygiene and c) Social Policy and Inclusion. These components will contribute to a) improve the governance framework for the protection of children, community level prevention and expansion of the response to abuse, exploitation and violence b) improve the health, nutritional and educational outcomes of rural populations through increasing the availability of safe drinking water and adequate sanitation, in conjunction with other programme components; and c) help to define strategies to strengthen resilience, especially in the most vulnerable communities. The choice to support these three outcome areas and not to support UNICEF's entire country program has been made since these areas are in line with the current Swedish coo

During the eruption of the 2012 multidimensional crisis with political instability, worsened security situation and increased food insecurity, the 2008-2012 Country Programme was shifted to respond both to the complex emergency situation and development intervention in areas relatively less affected by the crisis. To respond to this situation, the Embassy decided to expand the contribution towards the component 'Young Child Survival and Development'. This support to the UNICEF previous country programme ended on June 2014. In addition, the Embassy has financed UNICEF WASH-program during the period 2013-2015 which will end this year. The Embassy has an overall positive experience from the cooperation and is therefore planning to continue the cooperation and to extend with the area of Social Policy and inclusion.Sweden will support three of the eight outcomes areas: a) Child Protection; b) Water, sanitation and hygiene and c) Social Policy and Inclusion. These components will contribute to a) improve the governance framework for the protection of children, community level prevention and expansion of the response to abuse, exploitation and violence b) improve the health, nutritional and educational outcomes of rural populations through increasing the availability of safe drinking water and adequate sanitation, in conjunction with other programme components; and c) help to define strategies to strengthen resilience, especially in the most vulnerable communities. The choice to support these three outcome areas and not to support UNICEF's entire country program has been made since these areas are in line with the current Swedish coo

The overall objective of the 2...015–2019 country programme is to support the Government of Mali to increase equitable access to basic social services, strengthen the resilience of communities, support service delivery systems and promote policies and budgets that are sensitive to the situation of the most disadvantaged groups and children, while ensuring a better transition from humanitarian action to development.The Country Programme includes eight outcome areas that will seek to reduce the bottlenecks that limit communities' access to and utilisation of services, particularly the most disadvantaged rural communities. The outcome areas are: Health, Nutrition, Equitable access to quality basic education, Water, sanitation and hygiene, Child protection and Social policy and inclusion. These components are complemented by Cross-sectorial support programme which includes four sub-components: 1) Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation; 2) Communication for Development (C4D); 3) External Communication and Partnerships and 4) Emergency coordination and strategy for the North.

DIAKONIA FRAME 2016-2020
|
Diakonia frame 2016-2020
|
This programme is implemented ...during a five-year period (as framework organizations may now apply for grants for longer periods than in the past in order to increase aid effectiveness) and it is based on Diakonia's global strategy for 2015-2020. It includes 21 country programs in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East, and six regional programs and a new global program for innovation in the area of social and economic justice. Diakonia is working through local civil society organizations for the overall goal to change unfair structures that generate and uphold inequality, oppression and violence and to work for fulfilment of the right of all people to live a life in dignity. In total 216 partner organizations are included in this application. Operations are focused on the following six areas: human rights (HR), democracy, equality, social and economic justice, conflict and justice, as well as capacity development of partners. What is new compared to the previous contribution is primarily the inclusion of several new regional programs in various areas as well as the global innovation program.Expected results:General expected results are formulated for the six areas. These are linked to the expected results for each program (i.e. by country / regional / global program), which in many cases consist of a selection of results that are identical to the general results. The results at the program level are concretized through indicators.Examples of expected outcomes, one from each region, in some common thematic areas are:Mali: Women's political participation has been strengthened at the local and national levels (democracy)Bolivia: Gender-based violence has decreased (gender equality)Bangladesh: The conditions for decent work and fair income have improved (social and economic justice)Lebanon: The capacity of Diakonia's partners to integrate environment and conflict sensitivity in their work (where relevant) has been improved. (capacity development)Previous results:Reports often show results in terms of strengthened rights holders and increased capacity of partner organizations.The following examples show previous results in a few areas:Human rights: In Thailand five partner organizations assisted tens of thousands of stateless persons to obtain legal status. This means that they for example have the right to work and study, as well as to access rights-based services.Democracy: In Mali, partner organizations were trained in citizen budget monitoring and analysis of public policies. This has led to increased budgets for health and education in several municipalities. In one province all municipalities published their accounting in 2014, whereas in 2012 none of the municipalities did.Conflict and Justice: Seven partner organizations in Colombia, Honduras and Peru have increased their knowledge of the legal framework and have taken legal action, which in some cases resulted in the return to communities of pieces of land from extractive companies.T

Studies on the role of pRB-CYC...LIN/CDK pathway in tissue regeneration and its response to viral infection in Ambystoma salamander species
more

Overall purpose of the researc...h program is to explore the molecular mechanism underlying the unique regeneration capacity of salamanders and to investigate the response of this mechanism to viral infection. Laboratory in Mexico initiated an RNA sequencing approach to identify genes of the pRB-CYCLIN/CDK pathway. Proteins encoded by pathway genes will be expressed by the group in Sweden to study the Plk-mediated activation of CYCLIN/CDK complexes, test their phosphorylation activity against pRB and map phosphorylation sites by mass spectrometry. Initial phase of the collaboration aims to establish molecular tools and to determine functional relationships between pathway members. Following up on this knowledge the in vivo expression patterns of Plk, pRB and CYCLIN/CDK genes will be investigated by in situ hybridization and immunolocalization techniques in transgenic Ambystoma lines in response to ATV infection and during regeneration. Finally, the phenotypes of gain-of-function and loss-of-function approaches for all the key genes will be studied. Our results will lead to a better understanding of the host response mechanism to ATV virus infection and will enable novel strategies for the conservation of amphibian species. Furthermore, our results of how the pRB-CYCLIN/CDK pathway acts in salamanders during regeneration will facilitate understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying cellular reprogramming and will be valuable in tissue regenerative biology and biomedicine.
