On 24th of February 2022, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russia's offensive war has resulted in great material destruction and hardship for the population, especially in the temporarily occupied and frontline areas. Over three and a half million people have been forced to flee within the country, and nearly seven million are displaced outside Ukraine's borders as a result of the war. The country's ability to care for all those who have participated in combat and who have been forced to flee is crucial for long-term stability and reconstruction. It is currently estimated that there are more than one million Ukrainian veterans, a figure that could increase significantly by the end of the war. In parallel with fighting against the Russian aggression, Ukraine has made impressive progress on its path towards Euro-Atlantic integration in both membership negotiations with the EU and rapprochement with NATO. The country maintains a steady pace of reform and receives extensive international support for both reforms and for rebuilding what has been destroyed in Russia's war of aggression. Corruption is a central challenge for Ukraine, and several institutions and reforms have been launched in recent years to limit corruption. Sweden provides extensive assistance to Ukraine in terms of development cooperation focusing on reforms, humanitarian aid and support for Ukraine's reconstruction. FBA works in close cooperation with a wide range of state actors and civil society organisations within the country. FBA seconds experts to international missions and organisations such as the EU's international crisis management operation (EUAM), the UN Development Program (UNDP) and the UN Resident Coordinator's Office (UN RCO). FBA works to strengthen democratic governance with a focus on defence and security sector reform, support for Ukraine's EU integration and work against hybrid threats. Reforms linked to insight, governance, transparency and anti-corruption are central, not least in the transition when emergency laws are lifted. FBA contributes to increasing understanding of the reforms needed in the defence sector, as well as to how Ukraine's international partners can support this. FBA also supports Ukraine's reconstruction focusing on the support for sustainable and gender-equal reintegration of veterans. This includes cooperation with national ministries, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the UN and civil society organisations. The aim is to support the business community in contributing to the reintegration of female and male veterans into the labour market, as well as to support the ability of state actors to develop sustainable policies and tools to this end. FBA also cooperates with a regional police college to strengthen the ability of police officers to meet the security needs of the population, especially in particularly war-torn areas. Kriget i Ukraina bröt ut i början av 2014 i samband med Rysslands olagliga annektering av Krim och ryskstödda separatisters övertagande av delar av området Donbass. Den 24 februari 2022 inledde Ryssland den fullskaliga invasionen av Ukraina. Rysslands anfallskrig har inneburit stor materiell förstörelse och stora umbäranden för befolkningen, i synnerhet i de tillfälligt ockuperade och frontnära områdena. Över tre och en halv miljoner människor har tvingats fly inom landet, och nära sju miljoner är på flykt utanför Ukrainas gränser till följd av kriget. Landets förmåga att ta hand om alla dem som har deltagit i strid och som drivits på flykt är avgörande för långsiktig stabilitet och uppbyggnad. Ukrainas veteraner uppskattas i dagsläget uppgå till mer än en miljon, vilket är en siffra som kan kommer att växa betydligt vid krigets slut. Parallellt med att bekämpa Rysslands aggression har Ukraina gjort imponerande framsteg på sin väg mot euroatlantisk integration i såväl medlemsskapsförhandlingarna med EU och närmandet till Nato. Landet håller en stadig reformtakt och får ett omfattande internationellt stöd till både reformer och uppbyggnad av det som förstörts i Rysslands anfallskrig. Korruption är en central utmaning för Ukraina, och ett flertal institutioner och reformer har under senare år sjösatts för att stävja korruptionen. Sverige ger ett omfattande bistånd till Ukraina både när det gäller reforminriktat utvecklingssamarbete, humanitärt stöd och stöd till Ukrainas uppbyggnad. FBA arbetar i nära samarbete med en bredd av statliga aktörer och civilsamhällesorganisationer inom landet. FBA sekonderar experter till internationella insatser och organisationer såsom EU:s internationella krishanteringsinsats EUAM, FN:s utvecklingsprogram UNDP och UN Resident Coordinator’s Office (UN RCO). FBA arbetar med stärkt demokratisk samhällsstyrning med fokus på försvars- och säkerhetssektorreform, stöd till Ukrainas EU-närmande och arbete mot hybrida hot. Reformer kopplade till insyn, styrning, transparens och antikorruption är centrala, inte minst i övergången då undantagslagar lyfts. FBA bidrar till att öka förståelsen för de reformbehov som finns inom försvarssektorn, bortom det militärt operativa, samt hur Ukrainas internationella partners med fokus på EU kan stödja detta. FBA arbetar även med stöd till Ukrainas uppbyggnad med fokus på stöd till hållbar och jämställd återintegrering av veteraner. Detta sker i samarbete med såväl nationella ministerier, Europeiska banken för uppbyggnad och utveckling, FN och civilsamhällesorganisationer. Syftet är bland annat att främja näringslivets roll att bidra till kvinnliga och manliga veteraners återintegrering på arbetsmarknaden och att stödja statliga aktörers förmåga att utveckla hållbara policier och verktyg. FBA samarbetar dessutom med en regional polishögskola för att stärka polisers förmåga att möta befolkningens säkerhetsbehov, i synnerhet i särskilt krigsdrabbade områden.

FBA works to strengthen democratic governance with a focus on defence and security sector reform, support for Ukraine's EU integration and work against hybrid threats. Reforms linked to insight, governance, transparency and anti-corruption are central, not least in the transition when emergency laws are lifted. FBA contributes to increasing understanding of the reforms needed in the defence sector, as well as to how Ukraine's international partners can support this. FBA also supports Ukraine's reconstruction focusing on the support for sustainable and gender-equal reintegration of veterans. This includes cooperation with national ministries, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the UN and civil society organisations. The aim is to support the business community in contributing to the reintegration of female and male veterans into the labour market, as well as to support the ability of state actors to develop sustainable policies and tools to this end. FBA also cooperates with a regional police college to strengthen the ability of police officers to meet the security needs of the population, especially in particularly war-torn areas. Kriget i Ukraina bröt ut i början av 2014 i samband med Rysslands olagliga annektering av Krim och ryskstödda separatisters övertagande av delar av området Donbass. Den 24 februari 2022 inledde Ryssland den fullskaliga invasionen av Ukraina. Rysslands anfallskrig har inneburit stor materiell förstörelse och stora umbäranden för befolkningen, i synnerhet i de tillfälligt ockuperade och frontnära områdena. Över tre och en halv miljoner människor har tvingats fly inom landet, och nära sju miljoner är på flykt utanför Ukrainas gränser till följd av kriget. Landets förmåga att ta hand om alla dem som har deltagit i strid och som drivits på flykt är avgörande för långsiktig stabilitet och uppbyggnad. Ukrainas veteraner uppskattas i dagsläget uppgå till mer än en miljon, vilket är en siffra som kan kommer att växa betydligt vid krigets slut. Parallellt med att bekämpa Rysslands aggression har Ukraina gjort imponerande framsteg på sin väg mot euroatlantisk integration i såväl medlemsskapsförhandlingarna med EU och närmandet till Nato. Landet håller en stadig reformtakt och får ett omfattande internationellt stöd till både reformer och uppbyggnad av det som förstörts i Rysslands anfallskrig. Korruption är en central utmaning för Ukraina, och ett flertal institutioner och reformer har under senare år sjösatts för att stävja korruptionen. Sverige ger ett omfattande bistånd till Ukraina både när det gäller reforminriktat utvecklingssamarbete, humanitärt stöd och stöd till Ukrainas uppbyggnad. FBA arbetar i nära samarbete med en bredd av statliga aktörer och civilsamhällesorganisationer inom landet. FBA sekonderar experter till internationella insatser och organisationer såsom EU:s internationella krishanteringsinsats EUAM, FN:s utvecklingsprogram UNDP och UN Resident Coordinator’s Office (UN RCO). FBA arbetar med stärkt demokratisk samhällsstyrning med fokus på försvars- och säkerhetssektorreform, stöd till Ukrainas EU-närmande och arbete mot hybrida hot. Reformer kopplade till insyn, styrning, transparens och antikorruption är centrala, inte minst i övergången då undantagslagar lyfts. FBA bidrar till att öka förståelsen för de reformbehov som finns inom försvarssektorn, bortom det militärt operativa, samt hur Ukrainas internationella partners med fokus på EU kan stödja detta. FBA arbetar även med stöd till Ukrainas uppbyggnad med fokus på stöd till hållbar och jämställd återintegrering av veteraner. Detta sker i samarbete med såväl nationella ministerier, Europeiska banken för uppbyggnad och utveckling, FN och civilsamhällesorganisationer. Syftet är bland annat att främja näringslivets roll att bidra till kvinnliga och manliga veteraners återintegrering på arbetsmarknaden och att stödja statliga aktörers förmåga att utveckla hållbara policier och verktyg. FBA samarbetar dessutom med en regional polishögskola för att stärka polisers förmåga att möta befolkningens säkerhetsbehov, i synnerhet i särskilt krigsdrabbade områden.

The mission aimed to strengthen Niger's security forces in combating terrorism, organized crime, and irregular migration, with a strong emphasis on upholding human rights. Since 2013, MSB (Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency) has seconded experts to the mission, including positions such as Engineer, Nurse, Medical Adviser, and Chief of Communication and Information Systems. The Chief of CIS has been part of the mission from late 2015 until its conclusion. MSB's support has contributed to developing both the technical and physical infrastructure of the mission. This has resulted in improved communications and IT security, as well as increased internal efficiency and quality in all activities conducted across different regions. The medical expertise seconded has enhanced the health of the men and women serving in the mission and thus enabled the mission to operate effectively in the country. The secondment of a leadership position within CIS to EUCAP Sahel Niger has, during the mission's final phase, ensured a controlled and safe closure of the mission, both at headquarters in Niamey and at the field office in Agadez. This was a significant and complex task, involving many aspects, particularly administrative ones, such as transferring large amounts of information from the mission's servers to headquarters in Brussels. It also included the physical decommissioning of equipment such as vehicles, computers, and satellite phones. A substantial part of this work was carried out in close collaboration with the mission's logistics unit. Before the mission's closure, the seconded expert also played a role in strengthening national actors internal communication systems. EUCAP Sahel Niger, en civil kapacitetsuppbyggande insats under EU:s gemensamma säkerhets- och försvarspolitik, inleddes 2012 och avslutades den 30 juni 20242. Insatsen syftade till att stärka Nigers säkerhetsstyrkor i kampen mot terrorism, organiserad brottslighet och irreguljär migration där stor vikt har lagts vid upprätthållande av mänskliga rättigheter. MSB har haft experter sekonderade till insatsen sedan 2013 i i positionerna Engineer, Nurse samt Medical Adviser och Chief of Communication and Information Systems. Chief of CIS har arbetat i insatsen sedan slutet på 2015 till dess att insatsen avslutades. MSB:s stöd har bidragit till att utveckla både den tekniska och fysiska infrastrukturen för insatsen. Detta har i sin tur lett till bättre kommunikationer och IT-säkerhet, samt ökad intern effektivitet och kvalitet vid samtliga verksamheter som genomförts i de olika regionerna. Den medicinska kompetensen som sekonderats har bidragit till ökad hälsa hos de kvinnor och män som tjänstgjort i insatsen och möjliggjort för insatsen att kunna verka i landet. Sekondering av chefstjänsten till EUCAP Sahel Niger har under insatsen sista tid resulterat i att missionen har kunnat genomföra nedstängningen av insatsen på ett kontrollerat och säkert sätt, både på huvudkontoret i Niamey och på fältkontoret i Agadez. Det har varit en stor och komplex uppgift med många delar, inte minst administrativa, då bland annat stora mängder information förts över från insatsens servrar till huvudkontoret i Bryssel. Det har även skett en fysisk avveckling med nedmonteringar av master samt insamlande av mobiler, datorer, satellittelefoner. En stor del av arbetet har skett i nära samarbete med insatsens logistikenhet. Innan avvecklingen av insatsen var den sekonderade också bidragande till att stärka Nigers säkerhetsstyrkors interna kommunikationssystem.

This is done by reintegrating former FARC combatants into society, by training them in mine and ammunition management within the framework of the organization (Humanicemos DH). At the same time, the increased clearing capacity is contributing to the freeing up of land for agriculture and the construction of national infrastructure. UNMAS provides technical capacity building support with the goal that the organization will reach full operational capacity to help make Colombia free of mines and other ERWs (Exlosive Remnant of War). The effort thus contributes both to reducing recidivism in conflict and promotes increased security for the population. Stödet bidrog till den pågående fredsprocessen samt en stärkt nationell ammunitionsröjningsförmåga. Detta görs genom att återintegrera tidigare FARC-kombattanter i samhället, genom att utbilda dessa inom min- och ammunitionshantering inom ramen för den fortfarande unga organisationen (Humanicemos DH).

A peace process is underway, but the ceasefire that began in April 2022 is fragile, making it difficult to secure funding for long-term aid projects. In addition to the ongoing conflict, Yemen is plagued by explosive remnants of previous wars that date back a long time. Furthermore, the conflict in Yemen is supported by other countries' governments and actors from other nations. The collapsed rule of law, combined with clan structures and hybrid warfare, has, for example, led to militant Islamist groups from the wars in Syria and Iraq now being present in Yemen. They represent a significant force in the fighting between Houthi rebels and government forces. This results in a large number of improvised explosive devices, whose explosive power is greater and more unpredictable than conventional weapons, posing a critical threat to life, health, and development/reconstruction. The UNDP has supported Yemen in establishing a national mine management authority, the National Mine Action Committee/Yemen Executive Mine Action Center (NMAC/YEMAC), and the Yemen Mine Action Coordination Center (YMACC), with offices in Aden. The MSB contribution was a long-term planned support initiative but was interrupted in 2023 when the UNDP suddenly decided to shut down the mine action program. The assessment is that the initiative contributed to ensuring capacity in mine and ammunition management and thereby achieved the expected results given the conditions of the effort Den utdragna konflikten har pågått sedan 2014 och har resulterat i en mycket svår humanitär situation i landet. En fredsprocess pågår, men vapenvilan som inleddes i april 2022 är skör vilket gör det svårt att få finansiering till långsiktiga biståndsprojekt. Utöver den pågående konflikten har Jemen explosiva lämningar av tidigare krig som sträcker sig långt tillbaka i tiden. Dessutom understödjs konflikten i Jemen av andra länders regeringar och aktörer i andra länder. Det raserade rättssamhället i kombination med klanstrukturer och hybridkrigföring har till exempel gjort att militanta islamistiska grupperingar från kriget i Syrien och Irak nu befinner sig i Jemen och utgör en maktfaktor i striderna mellan huthi-rebeller och regeringsstyrkor. Detta gör att ett stort antal improviserade explosiva vapen, vars sprängkraft är större och mer oberäknelig än konventionella vapens, utgör ett avgörande hot mot liv, hälsa och utveckling/återuppbyggnad. UNDP har gett stöd till Jemen i etableringen av en nationell minhanteringsmyndighet, National Mine Action Committee/Yemen Executive Mine Action Center (NMAC/YEMAC) och Yemen Mine Action Coordination Center (YMACC) med kontor i Aden. Insatsen var ett långsiktigt planerat stöd, men avbröts 2023 när UNDP hastigt fattade beslut om nedstängning av minhanteringsprogrammet. Bedömning är att insatsen har bidragit till säkerställd kapacitet i min- och ammunitionshantering och därmed uppnått förväntade resultat utifrån förutsättningarna för insatsen.

MSB har stöttat UNDP Crisis Bureau med tre experter inom biståndseffektivitet och informationshantering. Experterna har dels arbetat med att bedöma behovet av och utveckla en ny typ av digitalt informationshanteringsverktyg, Aid Information Management System (AIMS), och dels med att utveckla UNDP:s policydokument för biståndseffektivitet. Genom gediget arbete har experterna skapat underlag för UNDP att fatta beslut kring hur de bör förhålla sig till AIMS i framtiden i syfte att undvika att tid och resurser läggs på att skapa verktyg som inte är hållbara och därmed inte till nytta för krisdrabbade länder. Teamet har skapat en teknisk specifikation för en ny typ av AIMS utformad för att svara upp mot existerande utmaningar. En prototyp av produkten utvecklades för att visualisera och validera arbetet. Experterna presenterade även två alternativa vägar till att stärka UNDP:s kapacitet gällande biståndshantering, med förslag på hur redan existerande strukturer kan förbättras istället för att skapa ett nytt verktyg. Vidare har teamet via sin expertis bidragit till utvecklingen av UNDP:s policydokument för effektiv biståndshantering (Guidance Note on Effective Aid Management) avseende innehåll och utformning. Policydokumentet ska ingå i UNDP:s Crisis Response Package on Aid Management, till stöd för landskontor och regeringar i deras arbete med biståndshantering. Due to the military coup in Sudan the team was redirected to support UNDP NY with global policies and tools in waiting for the situation to improve. The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) has supported the UNDP Crisis Bureau with three experts in aid effectiveness and information management. The project originated when the support provided to the Sudanese government regarding the mapping, coordination, and streamlining of development aid was halted due to the military takeover in October 2021. The experts have worked partly on assessing the need for and developing a new type of digital information management tool, the Aid Information Management System (AIMS), and partly on developing UNDP’s policy documents for aid effectiveness. Through thorough work, the experts have created a foundation for UNDP to make decisions on how to approach AIMS in the future, aiming to prevent time and resources from being spent on creating tools that are not sustainable and therefore not beneficial for crisis-affected countries. The team has produced a technical specification for a new type of AIMS designed to address existing challenges. A prototype of the product was developed to visualize and validate the work. The experts also presented two alternative approaches to strengthening UNDP's capacity in aid management, proposing ways to improve already existing structures instead of creating a new tool. Additionally, the team has, through their expertise, contributed to the development of UNDP's policy document for effective aid management (Guidance Note on Effective Aid Management) regarding its content and design. The policy document is intended to be part of UNDP's Crisis Response Package on Aid Management, supporting country offices and governments in their aid management efforts.

The support is implemented in partnership with EUAM and channelised towards the implementation of a digitalised case management system (SMERKA). Together with EUAM, MSB will focus on supporting modules (software development) related to the digitalised case management system that specifically increases the capacity to investigate international crimes. The support also includes equipping the Office of the Prosecutor General, the police and the security services with IT-related hardware necessary for war crimes investigation. MSB stödjer Ukrainas åklagarmyndighet, polis och säkerhetstjänst med tekniska lösningar (materiel och mjukvaruutveckling) för att öka förmågan till krigsbrottsutredning. Insatsen sker i samarbete med EUAM och implementeras genom stöd till ett EU-lett projekt som syftar till att bistå det ukrainska åklagarämbetet att utveckla ett digitaliserat ärendehanteringssystem (SMERKA). Tillsammans med EUAM kommer MSB att fokusera på att öka kapacitet specifikt inriktat på förmåga att utreda krigsbrott inom ramen för SMERKA. Insatsen inkluderar både mjukvaruutveckling och införande av det digitaliserade ärendehanteringssystemet i sig som ett IT-materielstöd som möjliggör ett digitaliserat arbete. Materielstödet riktas utöver till den ukrainska åklagarmyndigheten även till polismyndigheten samt säkerhetstjänsten som direkta förmånstagare för stödet. Insatsen genomförs under perioden juni 2024-december 2025. Total budget för insatsen är 27 MKR Expected results: Increased capacity of Ukrainian authorities to investigate and prosecute war crimes, increased effectiveness and improved management praxis amongst the Ukrainian judiciary and improved conditions for Ukraine’s EU accession Förväntade resultat: Ökad förmåga hos ukrainska myndigheters att utreda och åtala krigsbrott, ökad effektivitet och förbättrad förvaltning hos det ukrainska rättsväsendet och stärkta förutsättningarna för Ukrainas EU närmande Sweden The Swedish Civil Defence and Resilience Agency The Swedish Civil Defence and Resilience Agency +46 7 712 40 240 registrator@mcf.se www.mcf.se 651 81, Karlstad Ukraine Civilian peace-building, conflict prevention and resolution Conflict, Peace & Security Ryska överträdelser mot internationell humanitär rätt har ställt ökade krav på Ukraina att utreda och åtala krigsbrott. MSB har under året – i samarbete med EU:s stödinsats i Ukraina, EUAM – stöttat Ukrainas förmåga att bidra till att upprätthålla rättsstatens principer genom att uppgradera det ukrainska rättsväsendets digitala infrastruktur. Genom mjukvaruutveckling och donation av nödvändig hårdvara till ett värde av 17 miljoner kronor har MSB moderniserat riksåklagarämbetets datalagringssystem och bidragit till utvecklingen av Ukrainas digitaliserade brottsärendehanteringssystem, SMEREKA. MSB har även köpt in och donerat hårdvara och programvara till säkerhetstjänsten, polisen samt åklagarmyndighetens lokalkontor i Odessa för att öka förmågan att säkert lagra, analysera och dela dokument mellan brottsbekämpande myndigheter och inom rättsväsendet. Stödet möjliggör mer konsekvent flöde av kritisk information, möjliggör snabbare brottsutredningar och kortar den tid som krigsbrottsoffer måste vänta på rättvisa. Stödet har därmed ökat Ukrainas förmåga att utreda och åtala krigsbrott som begåtts under Rysslands fullskaliga invasion, såväl som andra internationella brott. Stödet bygger ett mer resilient och modernt rättsväsende i Ukraina och har därför bidragit även till att uppnå de krav som ställs på ett EU-medlemskap och bidrar till Ukrainas EU närmande. Mjukvaruutveckling och slutgiltig överlämning till nationella aktörer sker under början av 2026. Russian violations of international humanitarian law have placed increased demands on Ukraine to investigate and prosecute war crimes. Throughout the year, the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) – in cooperation with the EU Advisory Mission Ukraine (EUAM) – has supported Ukraine’s ability to uphold the rule of law by upgrading the digital infrastructure of the Ukrainian justice system. Through software development and the donation of essential hardware valued at 17 million SEK, MSB has modernised the Prosecutor General’s Office’s data storage system and contributed to the development of Ukraine’s digital case‑management system, SMEREKA.MSB has also procured and donated hardware and software to the Security Service, the police, and the Prosecutor’s Office’s local branch in Odesa to strengthen their ability to securely store, analyse, and share documents between law‑enforcement agencies and within the justice system. This support enables a more consistent flow of critical information, allows for faster criminal investigations, and reduces the time war‑crime victims must wait for justice.The assistance has therefore strengthened Ukraine’s capacity to investigate and prosecute war crimes committed during Russia’s full‑scale invasion, as well as other international crimes. It is helping to build a more resilient and modern justice system in Ukraine and has contributed to meeting the requirements associated with EU membership, supporting Ukraine’s EU integration. Software development and final handover to national actors will take place in early 2026.

The need for both training and equipment to enable Ukraine to carry out emergency response operations during an ongoing war is very high. At the same time, Sweden and the Swedish rescue services have much to learn from Ukraine’s hard‑earned experiences when building up Sweden’s civil defence. During the autumn of 2025, the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) carried out a pilot project focused on exchanging experiences and knowledge between Ukrainian and Swedish rescue services. Two groups of around ten Swedish firefighters from various rescue services, together with MSB staff, visited several locations in Ukraine and met their counterparts. The project has provided an opportunity to exchange experiences and bring home knowledge to develop their own organisations. The Ukrainian rescue services have received requested equipment and training in tactical emergency medical care. The two pilot exchanges focused specifically on ammunition and mine management, and have enabled the Swedish participants – responsible for this area within about ten rescue services across Sweden – to bring back extensive and highly relevant experience and knowledge to implement in their own operations. The exchange has also been complemented by a donation of equipment from Sweden to the relevant Ukrainian rescue services, including both medical supplies and workshop equipment. The project will continue during 2026 but will change its form of financing; therefore, reporting under development aid will be concluded. Den fullskaliga invasionen av Ukraina, och med denna ett stort antal ryska angrepp på städer över hela Ukraina, har i grunden förändrat förutsättningarna för den ukrainska räddningstjänsten. Behovet av både utbildning och materiel för Ukraina att kunna bedriva räddningstjänst under pågående krig är mycket stort. Samtidigt har Sverige och svensk räddningstjänst mycket att lära av Ukrainas dyrköpta erfarenheter för uppbyggnaden av det svenska civila försvaret.Under hösten 2025 har MSB genomfört ett pilot-projekt med fokus på erfarenhets_x0002_och kunskapsutbyte mellan ukrainska och svenska räddningstjänster. Två grupper av ett tiotal svenska brandmän från olika räddningstjänster vardera har, tillsammans med personal från MSB, besökt flera olika platser i Ukraina och där mött sina motsvarigheter. Projektet har inneburit en möjlighet att utbyta erfarenheter och ta med hem kunskap för utveckling av de egna organisationerna. De ukrainska räddningstjänsterna har fått efterfrågad materiel och utbildning inom taktisk sjukvård. De två pilot-utbytena har haft specifikt tema ammunitions- och minhantering, och lett till att de svenska deltagarna – med ansvar inom detta område på ett tiotal räddningstjänster runtom i Sverige – tagit med sig omfattande och högaktuella erfarenheter och kunskaper hem att implementera i den egna verksamheten. Utbytet har även kompletterats av en materieldonation från Sverige till berörda ukrainska räddningstjänster, där såväl sjukvårdsutrustning som verkstadsutrustning ingått. Projektet kommer fortgå under 2026 men byter finansieringsform, därför avslutas rapporteringen på utvecklingsbistånd.

SWEDO: The proposed project, “Civic Inclusion of women and youth” aims to improve the integration of youth, women, girls, and marginalized groups into civic engagement activities and advocacy efforts, focusing on youth agency to be mainstreamed into greater community development efforts. SWEDO will qualify 6 Civil Society Organizations (CSO) as trainers on the civic engagement of youth and marginalized groups. The organizations will be trained on the principles and theories of research and infographics and its support of civic initiatives. The project perform civic initiative activities with the selected CSOs utilized as hubs for civic engagement efforts. SWEDO will also seek to develop a youth civic engagement manual/toolkit to be utilized by marginalized groups throughout Jordan and the region. 2 BF: Palestinian youth is a highly marginalised group within a fragmented society with dysfunctional participatory and engagement mechanisms. The voices of Palestinian youth are not heard which is both a democratic problem and a neglect of their human rights. Through this project an inclusive and highly participatory survey among Palestinian youth in different locations will be carried out. The youth will then be involved to make sense of the differences and similarities of the challenges and obstacles for effective active citizenship. Tools will be created to disseminate the findings and information to international and Palestinian civil society, as well as duty bearers with the intention to increase understanding of youth perspectives and lay the foundations for a more inclusive approach. 1.

KFUM: Decades of ongoing conflict and a volatile and economic political situation has put women´s rights and the democratic development in Palestine on the back foot. This is especially evident in marginalized communities such as refugee camps where conservative values are more prevailing and opportunities are scarcer. Therefore, this project seeks to empower young Palestinian women to increase their political participation and increase women’s influence in their community. We will do this by working with locally elected women and young women in 3 refugee camps in the west bank. The targeted young women and YWCA of Palestine will produce guidelines political and support national advocacy for increasing women’s representation and participation in Palestinian politics. 2. Björkåfrihet: Palestinian youth is a highly marginalised group within a fragmented society with dysfunctional participatory and engagement mechanisms. The voices of Palestinian youth are not heard which is both a democratic problem and a neglect of their human rights. Through this project an inclusive and highly participatory survey among Palestinian youth in different locations will be carried out. The youth will then be involved to make sense of the differences and similarities of the challenges and obstacles for effective active citizenship. Tools will be created to disseminate the findings and information to international and Palestinian civil society, as well as duty bearers with the intention to increase understanding of youth perspectives and lay the foundations for a more inclusive approach. 1. KFUM: Projektet syftar till att öka de palestinska kvinnornas möjligheter att delta i politiska processer och påverka sina lokala samhällen, främst i tre flyktingläger i Västbanken med fokus på lokala folkkommittéer. 2. Projektet syftar till att undersöka hur palestinska ungdomar i flera länder i MENA regionen uppfattar sina möjligheter till aktivt politiskt deltagande. Projektets resultat kommer att spridas till palestinska och internationella civilsamhällesorganisationer samt beslutsfattare i form av bland annat infografik, videomaterial och påverkanskampanjer.

The Ambassadors, children 10–17, become changemakers where they live and in schools, for equal rights, especially girls’ rights, the Global Goals and a sustainable future. Both trainers and children go on to educate and empower their peers, also demanding from duty-bearers – including leaders on local and municipal levels – on the Rights of the Child, democracy, sustainable development and every child’s right to participation in local government. In the long term this will contribute to systematic and structural change, and the fulfilment of Global Goal 16.

So far women, especially young women have received little support to organize themselves, strategize and voice their SRHR issues. Hence, the project will promote a bottom-up approach and assist young women in the ages 18-35 to create a young women’s network for SRHR activism. The idea to build a network has been developed by young women and girls Kvinna till Kvinna works with in Rwanda. The project will target young women since they are future of the women’s right movement in Rwanda and will be able to create a more diverse and vibrant civil society around SRHR. Just as the call Young Voices Initiative indicates, to engage young women champions in Rwanda in SRHR activism is instrumental for making sure that young voices are heard. The project will clearly contribute to fundamental rights since access to SRHR is a basic human right for all and enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. A human rights perspective will be adopted throughout the project and civil society participation and participatory engagement will be crucial to the project. The advancement of SRHR is instrumental to achieving SDG 16. Ett kapacitetsstärkande projekt som bl a ska skapa nätverk av organisationer som leds av ungdomar och kvinnor.

Syftet med programmet är att stärka offentlig sektor i de medverkande partnerländerna genom att främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Long-term: Strengthened capacity of professionals (public sector employees and elected representatives) to work with innovation and green transition in the public sector and through this support the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. In the long term, the Si Public Sector innovation Program shall contribute to the public sector in partner countries conducting activities that lead to an egalitarian, equal, sustainable and/or inclusive society in order to achieve the global goals. To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska Si Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen. För att bidra till detta ska programmen stärka deltagarnas kunskap om arbetssätt, metoder och förändringsarbete för att driva en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, inkluderande och/eller hållbart samhälle, men också stärka deras tilltro till sin egen förmåga att driva förändringsarbete inom den egna organisationen. Detta görs genom att dels främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, dels bidra till grön omställning och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Efter avslutat program förväntas deltagarna ha ett ökad kunskap inom de berörda frågorna, ett utökat nätverk (både inom och utanför deltagargruppen) samt en stärkt kapacitet att driva förändring i och/eller utanför den egna organisationen.

Syftet med programmet är att stärka offentlig sektor i de medverkande partnerländerna genom att främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Long-term: Strengthened capacity of professionals (public sector employees and elected representatives) to work with innovation and green transition in the public sector and through this support the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. In the long term, the Si Public Sector innovation Program shall contribute to the public sector in partner countries conducting activities that lead to an egalitarian, equal, sustainable and/or inclusive society in order to achieve the global goals. To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska Si Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen. För att bidra till detta ska programmen stärka deltagarnas kunskap om arbetssätt, metoder och förändringsarbete för att driva en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, inkluderande och/eller hållbart samhälle, men också stärka deras tilltro till sin egen förmåga att driva förändringsarbete inom den egna organisationen. Detta görs genom att dels främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, dels bidra till grön omställning och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Efter avslutat program förväntas deltagarna ha ett ökad kunskap inom de berörda frågorna, ett utökat nätverk (både inom och utanför deltagargruppen) samt en stärkt kapacitet att driva förändring i och/eller utanför den egna organisationen.

Long-term: Strengthened capacity of professionals (public sector employees and elected representatives) to work with innovation and green transition in the public sector and through this support the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. In the long term, the Si Public Sector innovation Program shall contribute to the public sector in partner countries conducting activities that lead to an egalitarian, equal, sustainable and/or inclusive society in order to achieve the global goals. To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska Si Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen. För att bidra till detta ska programmen stärka deltagarnas kunskap om arbetssätt, metoder och förändringsarbete för att driva en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, inkluderande och/eller hållbart samhälle, men också stärka deras tilltro till sin egen förmåga att driva förändringsarbete inom den egna organisationen. Detta görs genom att dels främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, dels bidra till grön omställning och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Efter avslutat program förväntas deltagarna ha ett ökad kunskap inom de berörda frågorna, ett utökat nätverk (både inom och utanför deltagargruppen) samt en stärkt kapacitet att driva förändring i och/eller utanför den egna organisationen. Programmet förväntas också ges en organisatorisk effekt.

People with intellectual disabilities will visit schools and tell about their lives after they have been trained in presentations techniques by Glada Hudik theatre. It will be an admirable achievement, as people with intellectual disabilities often live in exclusion and are not used to be in the center of attention. Barn föds inte med fördomar är ett projekt som Glada Hudik-teatern driver om mänskliga rättigheter, utanförskap och olikheter. Tanken med projektet är att bidra till ett öppet, demokratiskt och inkluderande samhälle där varje människa har rätt till ett värdigt liv, där människor med intellektuella funktionshinder är synliga och accepterade. Vi vill sprida kunskap och värderingar för lika deltagande i samhället för personer med funktionsnedsättning, för att främja ett demokratiskt samhälle där rättigheter enlighet med FN:s konvention om mänskliga rättigheter. Beslutsfattare, icke-statliga organisationer, massmedia, lärare, socialarbetare, föräldrar och barn blir de viktigaste målgrupperna. Barn föds inte med fördomar vänder sig till skolelever och vuxna. Budskapet är att integration inte handlar om att alla ska bli lika. Det handlar om att lära sig att acceptera och uppskatta att vi är olika. Barn föds inte med fördomar. Projektets syfte är att öka skolelevers tolerans för olikheter och deras förståelse för och kunskap om personer med utvecklingsstörning och andra grupper i samhället som ses som avvikande och riskerar utanförskap. Ett andra syfte är också att vid sidan om skolarbetet arbeta med opinionsbildningen och öka medvetenheten och sprida kunskap om personer med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning generellt i olika samhällskretsar, genom att anordna lokala aktiviteter, arrangemang, utställningar,uppmärksamma och främja frågor om inkluderande utbildning och integrering av ovan nämnda gruppen i samhället.

The Sweden Alumni Academy offers activities that build competence in areas such as green transition, innovation, entrepreneurship, and leadership. Strategic support has been developed during 2024 in consultation with alumni, alumni networks and employees at foreign missions. This developed support, which can be found on the Sharing Sweden platform, is designed to support UM in working strategically with alumni relations through a practical handbook, information material (PPT), social media templates, etc. However, the display on openaid.se means that the total financial outcome per country is reported as separate interventions. In 2025, the offerings include: Capacity Boost, scholarships for participation in the Nobel Prize Teacher Summit, Sweden Talks (seminar series and master classes on sustainable entrepreneurship and leadership), and Impact Lab, which provides professional coaching, peer learning, and tailored resources to initiate or develop change initiatives. SI also provides strategic and financial support to foreign missions for alumni relations through the Sharing Sweden platform. SI:s alumnnätverk samlar tidigare deltagare i SI-program och personer som studerat i Sverige och som alla kommer från OECD/DAC-länder, med syfte att stärka deras kapacitet att bidra till hållbar utveckling och ekonomisk tillväxt i sina länder och regioner. SI stödjer nätverken genom material, digital kommunikation och kontakter med svenska aktörer och utlandsmyndigheter. SI ger även strategiskt och ekonomiskt stöd till utlandsmyndigheter för att arbeta med alumnrelationer via Sharing Sweden-plattformen. Sweden Alumni Academy erbjuder aktiviteter som stärker kompetens inom grön omställning, innovation, entreprenörskap och ledarskap. År 2025 omfattar erbjudandena: Capacity Boost, stipendium för Nobel Prize Teacher Summit, Sweden Talks (seminarier och masterklasser om hållbart entreprenörskap och ledarskap) samt Impact Lab, som ger professionell coaching, kollegialt lärande och resurser för att initiera eller utveckla förändringsinitiativ. På openaid.se visas det finansiella utfallet som separata insatser. The main goal of this program is to strengthen alumni from OECD-DAC countries, both SI-alumni and Sweden alumni, who have previously been students in Sweden or participated in leadership programmes. By providing support and resources, we aim to help them further develop their respective skills and competencies to enhance their capabilities and capacity to contribute to sustainable development and economic development and prosperity in their respective countries. Huvudmålet med detta program är att stärka alumner från OECD-DAC-länder, både SI-alumner och Sverigealumner, som tidigare varit studenter i Sverige eller deltagit i ledarskapsprogram. Genom att tillhandahålla stöd och resurser strävar vi efter att hjälpa dem att vidareutveckla sina respektive färdigheter och kompetenser för att förbättra sin förmåga att bidra till hållbar utveckling och ekonomisk utveckling och välstånd i sina respektive länder.

The assignment includes announcing and receiving applications, proposing candidates within each award category – individual and organization – and reporting on how the funds have been used. In the selection process, the Swedish Institute, in close cooperation with the commissioning authority (Ministry of Foreign Affairs), has developed criteria to serve as the basis for assessment. The purpose of the award is, by highlighting exemplary efforts, to increase non‑governmental Swedish contributions that support Ukraine’s reconstruction and reform cooperation and to support initiatives further in the benefit of reconstruction of Ukraine. The basis for assessment includes, among other things, well‑implemented initiatives that benefit Ukraine, including confirmation from Ukrainian partners regarding relevant activities. The funds distributed through the award must be used for civilian initiatives within the framework of Swedish development assistance and are financed under Expenditure Area 7, in accordance with the Strategy for Sweden’s Reconstruction and Reform Cooperation with Ukraine 2023–2027. The funds received are subject to conditions set out in agreements between the Swedish Institute and the recipients. Svenska institutet fick i regleringsbrevet 2025 i uppdrag att upprätta och administrera en årlig utmärkelse för civila svenska insatser till stöd för Ukraina. I uppdraget ingår att utlysa och ta emot ansökningar, föreslå kandidater inom respektive utmärkelsekategori – individ respektive organisation – och att redovisa hur medlen använts. I urvalsarbetet har SI i nära samarbete med uppdragsgivaren tagit fram kriterier, som utgångspunkt för bedömningen. Syftet med utmärkelsen är, genom att lyfta goda insatser, att öka de icke-statliga svenska insatserna till nytta för Ukrainas återuppbyggnad och reformsamarbete. Grund för bedömningen inkluderar bland annat väl genomförda insatser till nytta för Ukraina inkl. intygande från ukrainska partners om relevant verksamhet. Medlen som delas ut genom utmärkelsen ska användas för civila insatser inom ramen för det svenska biståndet och finansieras inom utgiftsområde 7 i enlighet med Strategi för Sveriges uppbyggnads- och reformsamarbete med Ukraina 2023–2027. Mottagna medel är förenade med villkor kring detta, fastställda i avtal mellan SI och mottagarna. The project is implemented within the framework of the Swedish Institute’s objective aimed at strengthening the capacity to drive reconstruction and reform processes in Ukraine. This work forms part of the implementation of the Strategy for Sweden’s Reconstruction and Reform Cooperation with Ukraine 2023–2027. The purpose of the award is to increase non governmental Swedish contributions in support of Ukraine by highlighting and recognizing exemplary efforts. The Swedish Institute’s assessment framework was based on the premise that award recipients who have contributed to Ukraine’s reconstruction can serve as a source of inspiration for others. This was reflected in the criteria applied during the evaluation of nominations. Increased visibility through media coverage is expected to encourage additional actors to engage in support initiatives for Ukraine. Recipients of the award have implemented activities directly on the ground in Ukraine and are expected to continue contributing to Ukraine’s reconstruction efforts and reform cooperation. Their ongoing engagement is considered to contribute to achieving the strategic objectives of Sweden’s support to Ukraine. Projektet genomförs inom ramen för SI:s verksamhetsmål som handlar om stärkt kapacitet att driva uppbyggnads- och reformprocesser i Ukraina. Detta handlar konkret om genomförande av Strategi för Sveriges uppbyggnads- och reformsamarbete med Ukraina 2023–2027. Syftet med utmärkelsen är, genom att lyfta goda insatser, att öka de icke-statliga svenska insatserna för Ukraina. SI:s utgångspunkt var att vinnare som genomfört insatser för Ukrainas återuppbyggnad kan inspirera andra (vilket var ett av kriterierna som nomineringarna bedömdes utifrån). Genom medial uppmärksamhet kan det resultera i att fler aktörer inspireras till handling för stöd till Ukraina. De som utses till vinnare har genomfört insatser på plats i Ukraina och förväntas genomföra fortsatt verksamhet till nytta för Ukrainas återuppbyggnad och reformsamarbete.

The Minister for International Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade, Benjamin Dousa, presented the awards in September, and the ceremony received media attention. The Ministry for Foreign Affairs has provided positive feedback to the Swedish Institute regarding the administration, implementation, and outcomes of the assignment. Project/Programme Implementation The Swedish Institute designed a nomination process that was announced and promoted through various communication efforts. This resulted in more than fifty nominations in each category. The nominations were assessed internally by a group of four SI staff members. The highest ranked candidates were presented to a jury appointed and chaired by the commissioning authority (the Ministry for Foreign Affairs). The jury proposed winners in each category, after which the Minister for International Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade made the final decision. The Swedish Institute subsequently entered into agreements with each award recipient and decided on the disbursement of award funds, which were paid out following the award ceremony in September. By the end of 2026, the recipients are required to submit a report detailing activities carried out to support Ukraine’s reconstruction and reform cooperation, as well as a financial report. Achievements and Changes During the Project Period The results can be viewed in two parts. First, the aim was to inspire additional Swedish actors to support Ukraine, which SI assesses has occurred as a result of the media attention generated by the award ceremony. Second, the award recipients will conduct activities that support Ukraine using the funds they received. Under the agreed terms, the recipient in the individual category will procure medical equipment for civilian hospitals in Ukraine. The recipient in the organizational category will organize and implement rehabilitation and reconstruction camps for Ukrainian veterans, both in Ukraine and in Sweden. All activities are to be completed by December 2026. These initiatives are assessed to be fully aligned with the Strategy for Sweden’s Reconstruction and Reform Cooperation with Ukraine 2023–2027. Resultat 2025: Arbetet med den första utmärkelseomgången resulterade i två vinnare: Tilde Addenbrooke som vann kategorin för individinsatser, och Help Ukraine Gothenburg som vann kategorin för organisation. Bistånds- och utrikeshandelsminister Benjamin Dousa delade ut utmärkelsen i september, och utdelningen fick medial uppmärksamhet. Utrikesdepartementet har gett SI positiv återkoppling på både administrationen, genomförandet och resultatet av uppdraget. Hur genomfördes projektet/programmet? SI designade en nomineringsprocess som lystes ut och marknadsfördes genom diverse kommunikationsinsatser. Det resulterade i över femtio nomineringar i respektive kategori. Dessa bedömdes internt på SI av fyra medarbetare. De som rankades högst presenterades för en jury som uppdragsgivaren (UD) utsett och satt som ordförande för. Juryn tog fram vinnarförslag i respektive kategori som bistånds- och utrikeshandelsministern sedan beslutade om. SI skrev avtal med respektive vinnare och beslutade om utbetalning av utmärkelsemedel. Dessa betalades ut efter utdelningen i september. Per slutet av 2026 ska vinnarna inkomma med en rapport om genomförd verksamhet till nytta för Ukrainas återuppbyggnad och reformsamarbete, samt ekonomisk redovisning. Vad har åstadkommits/har förändrats under projektperioden? Resultatet är tudelat. Dels ska fler svenska parter inspireras till att stötta Ukraina, vilket SI bedömer har skett genom den mediala uppmärksamheten som utdelningen resulterade i. Dels kommer vinnarna genomföra verksamhet för att stötta Ukraina, genom de medel de erhöll. Enligt uppsatt avtal ska vinnaren i individkategorin köpa in sjukvårdsmateriel till civila sjukhus i Ukraina. Vinnaren i organisationkategorin ska organisera och genomföra rehabiliterings- och återbyggnadsläger för ukrainska veteraner, både i Ukraina och i Sverige. Verksamheten ska vara genomförd per december 2026. Dessa aktiviteter bedöms ligga väl inom ramen för Strategi för Sveriges uppbyggnads- och reformsamarbete med Ukraina 2023–2027.

The programme is implemented annually by the Swedish Institute, with support from procured programme consultants, and in cooperation with Swedish organizations and companies with expertise and experience in areas linked to the promotion of entrepreneurship and innovation. In 2025, the programme was based on the theme “Enabling Climate Tech Entrepreneurship”, offering activities targeted at key actors working within local entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems with a particular interest in this thematic area. The purpose of the programme was to equip participants with knowledge, inspiration and a global network to help them develop their organizations and local ecosystems to better support the foundation, growth and impact of entrepreneurship focused on new solutions that prevent or mitigate climate‑related challenges. Participants were recruited through an open call that received approximately 1,200 applications. After a screening process, a final selection of 64 participants from the programme countries was made. Participation was funded through the following financing strategies: the Strategy for Innovation, Partnership and Capacity Development 2024–2028 and the Strategy for Sweden’s Regional Development Cooperation with the Middle East and North Africa 2024–2027. Countries included and funded through Swedish development cooperation funding: Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, Uganda, South Africa, Zambia, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, Türkiye, Morocco, Egypt (in addition 10 more countries are participating funded by non ODA funds such as Eastern Partnership countries and the Baltic States) Ledarskapsprogrammet Impact Pioneers har som mål att stärka grogrund, tillväxt och genomslag för entreprenörskap och innovation, och därigenom bidra till arbetstillfällen och nya lösningar som främjar hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt. Programmet genomförs årsvis av Svenska Institutet med stöd av upphandlade programkonsulter, samt i samverkan med svenska organisationer och företag med expertis och erfarenhet inom tematiker knutna till främjande av entreprenörskap och innovation. 2025 utgick programmet från temat ”Enabling Climate Tech Entrepreneurship” med ett erbjudande som riktade sig till nyckelpersoner verksamma inom lokala ekosystem för entreprenörskap och innovation och med särskilt intresse för just detta tema.

Sammantaget visar programmet tydliga omedelbara värden och lovande utsikter för långsiktig påverkan. I den avslutande enkäten fick deltagarna ange om programmet lett till några direkta resultat. Även om det är för tidigt att förvänta sig mer långtgående förändringar gav många konkreta exempel — bland annat följande från en deltagare från Marocko: ”As a direct outcome of my participation in the Impact Pioneers programme, we are organizing a multi-stakeholder session with 22 representatives from universities, public agencies, corporates, and civil society to discuss the green transition in Morocco and the role of each actor in accelerating it. This initiative was inspired by the Swedish quadruple helix model and aims to foster more coordinated, trust-based collaboration across sectors." The 2024 pilot's short-term goal was to strengthen knowledge and networks among the participants and thereby increase capacity to drive change in accordance with the program's overall goal: to strengthen the nurture, growth and impact of 'impact entrepreneurship'. Results were followed up through a final questionnaire with a total response rate of 84.1% (53/63 responses). 1. Percentage of participants who state that they gained increased knowledge through programme participation: 94.4% 2. Share of participants who state that the programme further inspired them to drive change and sustainable development: 98.1% 3. Share of participants who state that they received a value-creating network with other program participants: 100% 4. Share of participants who state that they received a value-creating network with Swedish organizations: 90.4% 5. Share of participants who identify partnership opportunities for continued cooperation with Swedish companies and organizations after the program: 92.5% Survey results from the 2025 Impact Pioneers leadership programme show that the short‑term goals of increasing participants’ knowledge, inspiration and networks have been met. Among the six participants funded through the Strategy for Sweden’s Regional Development Cooperation with the Middle East and North Africa (100% response rate), all respondents report increased knowledge and inspiration, with many strongly agreeing. Networking stands out as the strongest result. All participants state that the network built with fellow participants will benefit their future work, and all strongly agree. Connections with Swedish organisations are also highly valued: 100% believe these networks will support their work, with two‑thirds strongly agreeing. The results also indicate strong potential for continued collaboration. All participants expect partnerships with fellow participants’ organisations and with Swedish actors. All also foresee opportunities for cooperation on innovation and technology, while 83.3% believe the programme may lead to new funding opportunities. Overall, the programme demonstrates clear immediate value and promising prospects for long‑term impact. In the final survey, participants were asked whether the programme had led to any immediate results. Although it is still too early to expect more far‑reaching changes, many provided concrete examples, including the following accounts from a participant from Morocco: ”As a direct outcome of my participation in the Impact Pioneers programme, we are organizing a multi-stakeholder session with 22 representatives from universities, public agencies, corporates, and civil society to discuss the green transition in Morocco and the role of each actor in accelerating it.

För mer information se SI:s hemsida: https://si.se/sv/apply/leadership-programmes/leaderlab/ Expected results 2025: Through SI Leader Lab, participants are expected to strengthen their capacity to lead and manage more effective and sustainable development efforts that promote democracy, human rights, and freedom of expression. This is grounded in the programme’s aim to invest in actors who hold influence and a mandate for change within their respective societies. The programme reinforces the role of civil society actors as change leaders. Through training and network‑building, participants gain tools to influence policy, mobilise public opinion, and implement strategic initiatives. Change occurs both at the individual level (knowledge and tools) and the organisational level (implementation and institutional anchoring). Immediate expected results include increased knowledge in leadership, team development and advocacy; new and improved tools for driving change in line with the programme objectives; and organisational anchoring of results through the implementation of change projects. These outcomes are achieved through capacity‑building training, individual coaching, peer learning and networking, as well as practical application in the form of change projects within the participants’ own organisations. Expected results 2024: Strengthened capacity of influential civil society leaders and their organisations to drive successful advocacy work linked to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16: promoting just, peaceful and inclusive societies. Immediate expected results: 1. Increased knowledge as a reult of the programme. 2. New/improved tools to drive change in accordance with Programme objective 3. 3. Impact of the results in the participating organisations. Förväntade resultat 2025: Genom SI Leader Lab förväntas deltagarna ha stärkt sin kapacitet att driva och förvalta ett mer effektivt och hållbart utvecklingsarbete som bidrar till demokrati, mänskliga rättigheter och yttrandefrihet. Detta motiveras av programmets syfte att investera i aktörer med inflytande och förändringsmandat i sina respektive samhällen. Programmet stärker civilsamhällets aktörer i deras roll som förändringsledare. Genom utbildning och nätverksbyggande får deltagarna verktyg att påverka policy, mobilisera opinion och genomföra strategiska initiativ. Förändringen sker både på individnivå (kunskap och verktyg) och organisatorisk nivå (implementering och organisatorisk förankring). Omedelbara förväntade resultat: ökad kunskap inom ledarskap, teamutveckling och påverkansarbete, nya och förbättrade verktyg för att driva förändring i linje med programmets mål, organisatorisk förankring av resultat genom implementering av förändringsprojekt.

A broad spring offering was combined with a more in‑depth “Impact Lab” in the autumn, where 36 participants implemented change projects that generated clear and measurable results. Regional knowledge exchange, particularly on EU integration, provided unexpectedly strong added value. The results show tangible impact: participants have initiated projects exposing corruption, developed leadership training, and launched mentorship programmes for law students. Long‑term follow‑up indicates that 95% continue to use the tools and 87% report strengthened organisational capacity to drive change. Actual results 2024: SI Leader Lab Eastern Europe/MENA: Senior participants: 97% hold a management position. High attendance: 100 out of 106 participants received a diploma (94%).

Through training and network‑building, participants gain tools to influence policy, mobilise public opinion, and implement strategic initiatives. Change occurs both at the individual level (knowledge and tools) and the organisational level (implementation and institutional anchoring). Immediate expected results include increased knowledge in leadership, team development and advocacy; new and improved tools for driving change in line with the programme objectives; and organisational anchoring of results through the implementation of change projects. These outcomes are achieved through capacity‑building training, individual coaching, peer learning and networking, as well as practical application in the form of change projects within the participants’ own organisations. Expected results 2024: Strengthened capacity of influential civil society leaders and their organisations to drive successful advocacy work linked to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16: promoting just, peaceful and inclusive societies. Immediate expected results: 1. Increased knowledge as a reult of the programme. 2. New/improved tools to drive change in accordance with Programme objective 3. 3. Impact of the results in the participating organisations. Förväntade resultat 2025: Genom SI Leader Lab förväntas deltagarna ha stärkt sin kapacitet att driva och förvalta ett mer effektivt och hållbart utvecklingsarbete som bidrar till demokrati, mänskliga rättigheter och yttrandefrihet. Detta motiveras av programmets syfte att investera i aktörer med inflytande och förändringsmandat i sina respektive samhällen. Programmet stärker civilsamhällets aktörer i deras roll som förändringsledare. Genom utbildning och nätverksbyggande får deltagarna verktyg att påverka policy, mobilisera opinion och genomföra strategiska initiativ. Förändringen sker både på individnivå (kunskap och verktyg) och organisatorisk nivå (implementering och organisatorisk förankring). Omedelbara förväntade resultat: ökad kunskap inom ledarskap, teamutveckling och påverkansarbete, nya och förbättrade verktyg för att driva förändring i linje med programmets mål, organisatorisk förankring av resultat genom implementering av förändringsprojekt. Resultaten uppnås genom kapacitetsstärkande utbildningsinsatser, individuell coachning, erfarenhetsutbyte och nätverksbyggande samt praktisk tillämpning i form av förändringsprojekt i deltagarnas egna organisationer. Förväntade resultat 2024: Stärkt kapacitet hos aktiva och inflytelserika civilsamhällesaktörer i MENA/Östeuropa så att de kan driva och förvalta ett mer effektivt och hållbart utvecklingsarbete som bidrar till fredliga och inkluderande samhällen (mål 16, Agenda 2030).

The aim is to build leadership skills, strategic advocacy, and networks that promote democracy, human rights, and freedom of expression – while fostering long‑term relationships with Swedish civil society. The programme was delivered in a hybrid format, including a physical week in Sweden. This year, 108 participants were admitted from Eastern Europe, the Western Balkans, and Türkiye. A total of 98% completed the programme, and the majority hold managerial positions. A broad spring offering was combined with a more in‑depth “Impact Lab” in the autumn, where 36 participants implemented change projects that generated clear and measurable results. Regional knowledge exchange, particularly on EU integration, provided unexpectedly strong added value. The results show tangible impact: participants have initiated projects exposing corruption, developed leadership training, and launched mentorship programmes for law students. Long‑term follow‑up indicates that 95% continue to use the tools and 87% report strengthened organisational capacity to drive change. Actual results 2024: SI Leader Lab Eastern Europe/MENA: Senior participants: 97% hold a management position. High attendance: 100 out of 106 participants received a diploma (94%). The results from the evaluation are good: 81% (knowledge) and 76% (tools). Relatively good in terms of organizational anchoring: 74%. Through the program, 182 workshops were conducted, and 1607 people were reached through these. Network meeting with 130 participants including representatives from Swedish civil society. Faktiska resultat 2025: SI Leader Lab svarar mot behovet av att stärka civilsamhällesledare i komplexa kontexter med ökande repression och med begränsade möjligheter till samverkan och kapacitetsutveckling. Målet är att utveckla ledarskap, strategiskt påverkansarbete och nätverk för att främja demokrati, mänskliga rättigheter och yttrandefrihet – samt att bygga långsiktiga relationer med det svenska civilsamhället. Programmet genomfördes i hybridformat med en fysisk vecka i Sverige. Till årets program antogs 108 deltagare från Östeuropa, västra Balkan och Turkiet. 98 % slutförde programmet och majoriteten innehar en chefsposition. Ett bredare erbjudande på våren kombinerades med ett fördjupat ”Impact Lab” på hösten, där 36 deltagare drev förändringsprojekt som gav tydliga och mätbara resultat. Regionalt erfarenhetsutbyte, särskilt kring EU‑integration, gav oväntat stort mervärde. Resultaten visar tydliga effekter: deltagare har initierat projekt som avslöjar korruption, utvecklat ledarskapsutbildningar och lanserat mentorskapsprogram för juridikstudenter. Långtidsuppföljning visar att 95 % fortsatt använder verktygen och 87 % uppger att organisationen stärkts i sin kapacitet att driva förändring Faktiska resultat 2024: SI Leader Lab Östeuropa/MENA (resultat i hela gruppen): Seniora deltagare: 97 % har en chefsposition Hög närvaro: 100 av 106 deltagare fick diplom (94 %) Resultaten från utvärderingen är goda: 81 % (kunskap) och 76% (verktyg).

A total of 98% completed the programme, and the majority hold managerial positions. A broad spring offering was combined with a more in‑depth “Impact Lab” in the autumn, where 36 participants implemented change projects that generated clear and measurable results. Regional knowledge exchange, particularly on EU integration, provided unexpectedly strong added value. The results show tangible impact: participants have initiated projects exposing corruption, developed leadership training, and launched mentorship programmes for law students. Long‑term follow‑up indicates that 95% continue to use the tools and 87% report strengthened organisational capacity to drive change. Actual results 2024: SI Leader Lab Eastern Europe/MENA: Senior participants: 97% hold a management position. High attendance: 100 out of 106 participants received a diploma (94%).

The aim is to build leadership skills, strategic advocacy, and networks that promote democracy, human rights, and freedom of expression – while fostering long‑term relationships with Swedish civil society. The programme was delivered in a hybrid format, including a physical week in Sweden. This year, 108 participants were admitted from Eastern Europe, the Western Balkans, and Türkiye. A total of 98% completed the programme, and the majority hold managerial positions. A broad spring offering was combined with a more in‑depth “Impact Lab” in the autumn, where 36 participants implemented change projects that generated clear and measurable results. Regional knowledge exchange, particularly on EU integration, provided unexpectedly strong added value. The results show tangible impact: participants have initiated projects exposing corruption, developed leadership training, and launched mentorship programmes for law students. Long‑term follow‑up indicates that 95% continue to use the tools and 87% report strengthened organisational capacity to drive change. Actual results 2024: SI Leader Lab Eastern Europe/MENA: Senior participants: 97% hold a management position. High attendance: 100 out of 106 participants received a diploma (94%).

The program adds value to SI’s scholarship offering by providing activities focused on career planning and professional development for scholarship recipients from OECD/DAC countries pursuing master’s studies in Sweden. These activities serve as tools to enhance the scholars’ skills and capacity, complementing the theoretical knowledge acquired in their respective master’s programs. NFGP strengthens scholars’ ability to return to the labour market in their home countries by offering activities focused on career planning and career development. SI Network for Global Professionals (NFGP) är utvecklat för att möta målet kring stärkt kapacitet och kompetens hos aktörer inom privat och offentlig sektor, akademi och civilsamhället i utvecklingsländer att verka för innovativa och effektiva metoder för hållbar utveckling, inklusive genom synergier med handel och bistånd. Programmet utgör ett mervärde inom SI:s stipendieerbjudande genom att erbjuda aktiviteter med fokus på karriärplanering och karriärutveckling för individer från OECD/DAC länder som får stipendier för masterstudier i Sverige. Dessa aktiviteter fungerar som verktyg för att stärka stipendiaternas kompetens och kapacitet, och kompletterar den teoretiska kunskap som erhålls inom respektive mastersprogram. NFGP stärker stipendiaternas kapacitet att återvända till arbetsmarknaden i sina hemländer genom att erbjuda aktiviteter med fokus på karriärplanering och karriärutveckling. The expected long-term outcome is that the scholarship holders have gained increased competence and motivation to contribute to sustainable development in their home countries. Through, among other things, self-leadership training and online sessions, the scholars are provided with useful tools from a neuroscience perspective. The activities are intended to contribute in the long term to increasing access to qualified and gender-equal skills supply, by ensuring that the scholars return to the labour market in their home countries (OECD/DAC). NFGP aims to strengthen the scholars’ ability to drive their own career development in their home country and to ensure that they perceive career opportunities and a future there. Det förväntande långsiktiga resultatet är att stipendiaterna har fått ökad kompetens och motivation att bidra till hållbar utveckling i sina hemländer. Genom bland annat självledarskapsutbildningar och online sessioner ges stipendiaterna användbara verktyg ur ett neurovetenskapligt perspektiv. Verksamheten ska långsiktigt bidra till att öka tillgången till kvalificerad och jämställd kompetensförsörjning, genom att stipendiaterna återvänder till arbetsmarknaden i sina hemländer (OECD/DAC).

NFGP goda resultat och resultaten visar att vi når målgruppen med våra aktiviteter. Efter tre år hade 42% återvänt till arbetsmarknaden i sitt hemland och 75% anser att de haft användning av de verktyg de fick under sin stipendieperiod efter tre år. Detta visar att NFGP bidrar till stipendiaternas kompetensutveckling och att de får stärkt kapacitet genom aktiviteterna som är användbar efter studierna. Resultat 2025: På kort sikt visar NFGP mycket goda resultat: 95% av deltagarna upplever att de fått ny kunskap och 93% nya verktyg efter aktiviteterna, vilket indikerar stärkt individuell kapacitet direkt efter insatsen. På lång sikt är effekterna fortsatt tydliga. 88% av stipendiaterna anser att verktygen är användbara efter studierna, och 79% rapporterar faktisk nytta både ett och tre år senare, vilket visar på bestående kompetensutveckling. Återvändande till hemlandet är lägre: 33% efter ett år och 38% efter tre år, men ökningen över tid tyder på att effekten på återvändande är fördröjd.

After three years, 42% had returned to the labour market in their home country and 75% believe that they have used the tools they received during their scholarship period after three years. This shows that NFGP contributes to the competence development of the scholarship holders and that they gain strengthened capacity through the activities that are useful after their studies. Results 2025: In the short term, NFGP shows very strong results: 95% of participants report gaining new knowledge and 92% new tools after the activities, indicating strengthened individual capacity immediately following the intervention. In the long term, the effects remain clear. 88% of scholars consider the tools useful after completing their studies, and 79% report actual benefits both one and three years later, demonstrating lasting competence development. Return to the home country is lower: 33% after one year and 38% after three years, but the increase over time suggests that the effect on return is delayed.

NFGP goda resultat och resultaten visar att vi når målgruppen med våra aktiviteter. Efter tre år hade 42% återvänt till arbetsmarknaden i sitt hemland och 75% anser att de haft användning av de verktyg de fick under sin stipendieperiod efter tre år. Detta visar att NFGP bidrar till stipendiaternas kompetensutveckling och att de får stärkt kapacitet genom aktiviteterna som är användbar efter studierna. Resultat 2025: På kort sikt visar NFGP mycket goda resultat: 95% av deltagarna upplever att de fått ny kunskap och 93% nya verktyg efter aktiviteterna, vilket indikerar stärkt individuell kapacitet direkt efter insatsen. På lång sikt är effekterna fortsatt tydliga. 88% av stipendiaterna anser att verktygen är användbara efter studierna, och 79% rapporterar faktisk nytta både ett och tre år senare, vilket visar på bestående kompetensutveckling.

After three years, 42% had returned to the labour market in their home country and 75% believe that they have used the tools they received during their scholarship period after three years. This shows that NFGP contributes to the competence development of the scholarship holders and that they gain strengthened capacity through the activities that are useful after their studies. Results 2025: In the short term, NFGP shows very strong results: 95% of participants report gaining new knowledge and 92% new tools after the activities, indicating strengthened individual capacity immediately following the intervention. In the long term, the effects remain clear. 88% of scholars consider the tools useful after completing their studies, and 79% report actual benefits both one and three years later, demonstrating lasting competence development. Return to the home country is lower: 33% after one year and 38% after three years, but the increase over time suggests that the effect on return is delayed.

NFGP has good results, and the results indicate that we reach the target group with our activities. After three years, 42% had returned to the labour market in their home country and 75% believe that they have used the tools they received during their scholarship period after three years. This shows that NFGP contributes to the competence development of the scholarship holders and that they gain strengthened capacity through the activities that are useful after their studies. Results 2025: In the short term, NFGP shows very strong results: 95% of participants report gaining new knowledge and 92% new tools after the activities, indicating strengthened individual capacity immediately following the intervention. In the long term, the effects remain clear. 88% of scholars consider the tools useful after completing their studies, and 79% report actual benefits both one and three years later, demonstrating lasting competence development. Return to the home country is lower: 33% after one year and 38% after three years, but the increase over time suggests that the effect on return is delayed. Despite slightly lower figures in 2025 compared to previous years, NFGP contributes to long-term capacity building and some impact on return rates.

NFGP goda resultat och resultaten visar att vi når målgruppen med våra aktiviteter. Efter tre år hade 42% återvänt till arbetsmarknaden i sitt hemland och 75% anser att de haft användning av de verktyg de fick under sin stipendieperiod efter tre år. Detta visar att NFGP bidrar till stipendiaternas kompetensutveckling och att de får stärkt kapacitet genom aktiviteterna som är användbar efter studierna. Resultat 2025: På kort sikt visar NFGP mycket goda resultat: 95% av deltagarna upplever att de fått ny kunskap och 93% nya verktyg efter aktiviteterna, vilket indikerar stärkt individuell kapacitet direkt efter insatsen. På lång sikt är effekterna fortsatt tydliga. 88% av stipendiaterna anser att verktygen är användbara efter studierna, och 79% rapporterar faktisk nytta både ett och tre år senare, vilket visar på bestående kompetensutveckling.

Return to the home country is lower: 33% after one year and 38% after three years, but the increase over time suggests that the effect on return is delayed. Despite slightly lower figures in 2025 compared to previous years, NFGP contributes to long-term capacity building and some impact on return rates.

The expected long-term outcome is that the scholarship holders have gained increased competence and motivation to contribute to sustainable development in their home countries. Through, among other things, self-leadership training and online sessions, the scholars are provided with useful tools from a neuroscience perspective. The activities are intended to contribute in the long term to increasing access to qualified and gender-equal skills supply, by ensuring that the scholars return to the labour market in their home countries (OECD/DAC). NFGP aims to strengthen the scholars’ ability to drive their own career development in their home country and to ensure that they perceive career opportunities and a future there. Det förväntande långsiktiga resultatet är att stipendiaterna har fått ökad kompetens och motivation att bidra till hållbar utveckling i sina hemländer. Genom bland annat självledarskapsutbildningar och online sessioner ges stipendiaterna användbara verktyg ur ett neurovetenskapligt perspektiv. Verksamheten ska långsiktigt bidra till att öka tillgången till kvalificerad och jämställd kompetensförsörjning, genom att stipendiaterna återvänder till arbetsmarknaden i sina hemländer (OECD/DAC).

The program adds value to SI’s scholarship offering by providing activities focused on career planning and professional development for scholarship recipients from OECD/DAC countries pursuing master’s studies in Sweden. These activities serve as tools to enhance the scholars’ skills and capacity, complementing the theoretical knowledge acquired in their respective master’s programs. NFGP strengthens scholars’ ability to return to the labour market in their home countries by offering activities focused on career planning and career development. SI Network for Global Professionals (NFGP) är utvecklat för att möta målet kring stärkt kapacitet och kompetens hos aktörer inom privat och offentlig sektor, akademi och civilsamhället i utvecklingsländer att verka för innovativa och effektiva metoder för hållbar utveckling, inklusive genom synergier med handel och bistånd. Programmet utgör ett mervärde inom SI:s stipendieerbjudande genom att erbjuda aktiviteter med fokus på karriärplanering och karriärutveckling för individer från OECD/DAC länder som får stipendier för masterstudier i Sverige. Dessa aktiviteter fungerar som verktyg för att stärka stipendiaternas kompetens och kapacitet, och kompletterar den teoretiska kunskap som erhålls inom respektive mastersprogram. NFGP stärker stipendiaternas kapacitet att återvända till arbetsmarknaden i sina hemländer genom att erbjuda aktiviteter med fokus på karriärplanering och karriärutveckling. The expected long-term outcome is that the scholarship holders have gained increased competence and motivation to contribute to sustainable development in their home countries. Through, among other things, self-leadership training and online sessions, the scholars are provided with useful tools from a neuroscience perspective. The activities are intended to contribute in the long term to increasing access to qualified and gender-equal skills supply, by ensuring that the scholars return to the labour market in their home countries (OECD/DAC). NFGP aims to strengthen the scholars’ ability to drive their own career development in their home country and to ensure that they perceive career opportunities and a future there. Det förväntande långsiktiga resultatet är att stipendiaterna har fått ökad kompetens och motivation att bidra till hållbar utveckling i sina hemländer. Genom bland annat självledarskapsutbildningar och online sessioner ges stipendiaterna användbara verktyg ur ett neurovetenskapligt perspektiv. Verksamheten ska långsiktigt bidra till att öka tillgången till kvalificerad och jämställd kompetensförsörjning, genom att stipendiaterna återvänder till arbetsmarknaden i sina hemländer (OECD/DAC). NFGP ska bidra till att stipendiaterna fått stärkt förmåga att driva sin egen karriärutveckling i hemlandet och att de upplever att det finns karriärmöjligheter och en framtid i hemlandet.

NFGP goda resultat och resultaten visar att vi når målgruppen med våra aktiviteter. Efter tre år hade 42% återvänt till arbetsmarknaden i sitt hemland och 75% anser att de haft användning av de verktyg de fick under sin stipendieperiod efter tre år. Detta visar att NFGP bidrar till stipendiaternas kompetensutveckling och att de får stärkt kapacitet genom aktiviteterna som är användbar efter studierna. Resultat 2025: På kort sikt visar NFGP mycket goda resultat: 95% av deltagarna upplever att de fått ny kunskap och 93% nya verktyg efter aktiviteterna, vilket indikerar stärkt individuell kapacitet direkt efter insatsen. På lång sikt är effekterna fortsatt tydliga. 88% av stipendiaterna anser att verktygen är användbara efter studierna, och 79% rapporterar faktisk nytta både ett och tre år senare, vilket visar på bestående kompetensutveckling. Återvändande till hemlandet är lägre: 33% efter ett år och 38% efter tre år, men ökningen över tid tyder på att effekten på återvändande är fördröjd. Trots något lägre siffror 2025 jämfört med föregående år, bidrar NFGP till långsiktig kapacitetsförstärkning och viss påverkan på återvändande. Results 2024: 96% believe they have gained new knowledge, 94% believe they have gained new tools and 89% believe they have gained new contacts after participating in NFGP activities. NFGP has good results, and the results indicate that we reach the target group with our activities. After three years, 42% had returned to the labour market in their home country and 75% believe that they have used the tools they received during their scholarship period after three years. This shows that NFGP contributes to the competence development of the scholarship holders and that they gain strengthened capacity through the activities that are useful after their studies. Results 2025: In the short term, NFGP shows very strong results: 95% of participants report gaining new knowledge and 92% new tools after the activities, indicating strengthened individual capacity immediately following the intervention. In the long term, the effects remain clear. 88% of scholars consider the tools useful after completing their studies, and 79% report actual benefits both one and three years later, demonstrating lasting competence development. Return to the home country is lower: 33% after one year and 38% after three years, but the increase over time suggests that the effect on return is delayed.

NFGP has good results, and the results indicate that we reach the target group with our activities. After three years, 42% had returned to the labour market in their home country and 75% believe that they have used the tools they received during their scholarship period after three years. This shows that NFGP contributes to the competence development of the scholarship holders and that they gain strengthened capacity through the activities that are useful after their studies. Results 2025: In the short term, NFGP shows very strong results: 95% of participants report gaining new knowledge and 92% new tools after the activities, indicating strengthened individual capacity immediately following the intervention. In the long term, the effects remain clear. 88% of scholars consider the tools useful after completing their studies, and 79% report actual benefits both one and three years later, demonstrating lasting competence development. Return to the home country is lower: 33% after one year and 38% after three years, but the increase over time suggests that the effect on return is delayed.

Expected results 2024: Female entrepreneurs from the Middle East and North Africa region and Türkiye expand their operations and impact. Immediate measurable results: 1. Increased knowledge 2. New tools and skills 3. Programme's impact on participants' organisations/companies Expected 2025: Equal participation in the labour market is essential for economic growth. Increasing women’s opportunities to realise their full potential in the workforce can directly strengthen a country’s competitiveness and productivity. Despite a growing pool of highly educated women, the MENA region has the lowest female labour force participation rate in the world. The share of women who start and run businesses is also significantly lower than that of men. She Entrepreneurs 2025 is carried out within the framework of Sweden’s MENA strategy, which includes objectives related to economic development, education, trade, and the green transition in the region. The programme specifically targets women entrepreneurs who contribute sustainable climate solutions in areas such as water, energy, agriculture, transport, construction, waste management, and manufacturing. The programme is designed to strengthen the conditions for these promising entrepreneurs to succeed in their businesses and contribute to job creation, private sector development, and sustainable economic growth in their home countries. It provides participants with knowledge, tools, and networks that support their development as entrepreneurs and leaders, and help them scale their businesses and increase their positive societal impact.

Organisatorisk förankring av resultat Förväntade resultat 2025: Jämlikt deltagande på arbetsmarknaden är centralt för ekonomisk tillväxt. Att öka kvinnors möjligheter att utnyttja sin fulla potential på arbetsmarknaden kan direkt påverka ett lands konkurrenskraft och produktivitet. Trots en växande talangpool av högutbildade kvinnor har MENA-regionen det lägsta deltagandet av kvinnor på arbetsmarknaden i världen. Andelen kvinnor i regionen som startar och driver företag ligger också långt under andelen män. She Entrepreneurs 2025 genomförs inom Sveriges MENA-strategis mål om ekonomisk utveckling, utbildning, handel och grön omställning i MENA. Programmet riktar sig särskilt till kvinnliga entreprenörer som bidrar med hållbara lösningar för klimatet, inom områden som vatten, energi, jordbruk, transport, bygg, avfall och tillverkning. Programmet är utformat för att stärka förutsättningarna för dessa lovande entreprenörer att nå framgång i sina företag och att bidra till jobbskapande, privatsektorutveckling och hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt i hemländerna. Programmet ger deltagarna kunskap, verktyg och kontakter som hjälper dem att utvecklas som entreprenörer och ledare, samt att skala upp sina företag och öka dessas positiva samhällspåverkan.

Efter avslutat projekt förväntas målgruppen ha stärkt sin kapacitet att fortsätta driva förändring genom att till exempel ha fått tillgång till ny kunskap, nya metoder, nätverk, plattformar eller stärkt sina mandat till förändring. Resultaten möjliggörs av projektstöd till samarbetsprojekt om max 2 miljoner kronor och såddfinansiering om max 200 000 kronor. Alla projekt har en svensk huvudsökande som samarbetar med en eller flera parter i programländerna.

During the year, 14 projects submitted final reports. All of them stated that the project objectives had been met and that the target group had been strengthened in line with the program objectives. During 2025, 11 projects were financed within the framework of SI CPP. The projects shared the overarching objective of contributing to strengthened capacity and competence among civil society actors as well as public and private actors to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development.The projects were implemented in the areas of culture, independent media, and civil society. They contributed to strengthening and developing the participants’ and target groups’ knowledge, methods, and networks within their respective thematic areas and geographical contexts. Som examples of results: In the MENA region, a regional cultural project provided psychosocial support to more than 4,000 children and adults in marginalized areas. In Ethiopia, one project led local authorities to introduce new approaches for dialogue with and openness towards citizens, which is expected to contribute to increased social accountability within the authorities. In Zambia, civil society organisations, public officials, and media houses collaborated to improve media reporting on sexual and reproductive health and rights, resulting in the training of 222 individuals and reaching more than 10,000 people through radio broadcasts, podcasts, and social media. SI Creative Partnerships Programme kunde under 2024 bevilja 33 av 134 inkomna ansökningar, vilket motsvarar en beviljandegrad på drygt 24%. Under året slutrapporterade 14 projekt. Samtliga uppgav att projektmålen uppnåtts och att målgruppen stärkts i linje med programmålen. Under 2025 finansierades 11 projekt inom ramen för SI CPP. Projektens gemensamma, övergripande syfte var att bidra till stärkt kapacitet och kompetens hos civilsamhällesaktörer samt offentliga och privata aktörer att verka för innovativa och effektiva metoder för hållbar utveckling. Projekten genomfördes inom områdena kultur, oberoende medier och civilsamhälle. De bidrog till att stärka och utveckla deltagares och målgruppers kunskaper, metoder och nätverk inom sina respektive tematiska områden och geografier. Några resultatexempel: I MENA-regionen bidrog ett regionalt kulturprojekt till psykosocialt stöd för över 4000 barn och vuxna i marginaliserade områden. I Etiopien ledde ett projekt till att lokala myndigheter införde nya arbetssätt för dialog med och öppenhet gentemot medborgare, vilket förväntas bidra till myndigheternas ökade sociala ansvarstagande. I Zambia samverkade civilsamhällesorganisationer, tjänstepersoner och mediehus för att förbättra medierapporteringen om sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter, med resultatet att 222 personer utbildades och över 10 000 personer nåddes av inslag i radio, poddar och sociala medier.

During the year, 14 projects submitted final reports. All of them stated that the project objectives had been met and that the target group had been strengthened in line with the program objectives. During 2025, 11 projects were financed within the framework of SI CPP. The projects shared the overarching objective of contributing to strengthened capacity and competence among civil society actors as well as public and private actors to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development.The projects were implemented in the areas of culture, independent media, and civil society. They contributed to strengthening and developing the participants’ and target groups’ knowledge, methods, and networks within their respective thematic areas and geographical contexts. Som examples of results: In the MENA region, a regional cultural project provided psychosocial support to more than 4,000 children and adults in marginalized areas. In Ethiopia, one project led local authorities to introduce new approaches for dialogue with and openness towards citizens, which is expected to contribute to increased social accountability within the authorities. In Zambia, civil society organisations, public officials, and media houses collaborated to improve media reporting on sexual and reproductive health and rights, resulting in the training of 222 individuals and reaching more than 10,000 people through radio broadcasts, podcasts, and social media. SI Creative Partnerships Programme kunde under 2024 bevilja 33 av 134 inkomna ansökningar, vilket motsvarar en beviljandegrad på drygt 24%. Under året slutrapporterade 14 projekt.

Under 2025 finansierades 22 projekt i västra Balkan och Turkiet inom SI CPP. Programmet bidrog till stärkt demokratisk samhällsstyrning och respekt för mänskliga rättigheter och rättsstatens principer. Programmet bidrog vidare till stärkta förutsättningar för ansvarsutkrävande, ökad transparens och minskad korruption samt stärkta förutsättningar för ett jämställt samhälle. Resultaten är särskilt starka inom mänskliga rättigheter och ansvarsutkrävande och inkluderar bland annat minskad stigmatisering av HBTQI-personer och stärkt samverkan mellan aktörer som verkar för jämställdhet och mot könsbaserad diskriminering. På portföljnivå visar projekten tydliga prestationsnära effekter, särskilt inom områden som attitydförändringar, ökad kapacitet hos målgrupper och etablering av nya samverkansformer. Flera projekt har dessutom bidragit till policyutveckling, nätverksbyggande och långsiktig påverkan. Många av partnerskapen har mynnat ut i planer på fortsatt och fördjupad samverkan, vilket sannolikt bidrar till god hållbarhet och möjlighet till fortsatt arbete för stärkt demokrati och mänskliga rättigheter.

After project completion, the target group is expected to have strengthened its capacity to continue driving change by, for example, gaining access to new knowledge, new methods, networks, platforms, or strengthened mandates for change. The results are made possible through project support of up to SEK 2 million and seed funding of up to SEK 200,000. All projects have a Swedish main applicant who cooperates with one or more partners in the programme countries. SI CPP bidrar till mänskliga rättigheter, demokrati, rättsstatens principer och jämställdhet, i enlighet med strategierna för Sveriges reformsamarbete med västra Balkan, Turkiet och Östeuropa. I Afrika och MENA-regionen bidrar programmet till stärkt kapacitet och kompetens att verka för innovativa och effektiva metoder för hållbar utveckling, i enlighet med Strategi för innovation, partnerskap och kapacitetsutveckling. Projekten möter lokalt definierade behov inom relevanta områden, såsom stärkande av minoriteters eller HBTQI-personers mänskliga rättigheter, grävande journalistik, säkerhet för demokrati- och människorättsaktivister, motverkande av desinformation, främjande av kvinnors politiska deltagande, med mera. Efter avslutat projekt förväntas målgruppen ha stärkt sin kapacitet att fortsätta driva förändring genom att till exempel ha fått tillgång till ny kunskap, nya metoder, nätverk, plattformar eller stärkt sina mandat till förändring. Resultaten möjliggörs av projektstöd till samarbetsprojekt om max 2 miljoner kronor och såddfinansiering om max 200 000 kronor. Alla projekt har en svensk huvudsökande som samarbetar med en eller flera parter i programländerna.

During the year, 14 projects submitted final reports. All of them stated that the project objectives had been met and that the target group had been strengthened in line with the program objectives. During 2025, 22 projects in the Western Balkans and Türkiye were financed under SI CPP. The programme contributed to strengthened democratic governance and respect for human rights and the rule of law. It further contributed to improved conditions for accountability, increased transparency and reduced corruption, as well as strengthened conditions for a gender-equal society. The results are particularly strong within human rights and accountability, and include, among other things, reduced stigmatisation of LGBTQI persons and strengthened cooperation between actors working for gender equality and against gender-based discrimination. At portfolio level, the projects demonstrate clear performance-related effects, particularly in areas such as changes in attitudes, increased capacity among target groups, and the establishment of new forms of collaboration. Several projects have also contributed to policy development, network-building, and long-term impact. Many of the partnerships have resulted in plans for continued and deepened cooperation, which is likely to contribute to strong sustainability and the ability to continue advancing democracy and human rights. SI Creative Partnerships Programme kunde totalt under 2024 bevilja 33 av 134 inkomna ansökningar för alla regioner, vilket motsvarar en beviljandegrad på drygt 24%. Under året slutrapporterade 14 projekt. Samtliga uppgav att projektmålen uppnåtts och att målgruppen stärkts i linje med programmålen. Under 2025 finansierades 22 projekt i västra Balkan och Turkiet inom SI CPP. Programmet bidrog till stärkt demokratisk samhällsstyrning och respekt för mänskliga rättigheter och rättsstatens principer. Programmet bidrog vidare till stärkta förutsättningar för ansvarsutkrävande, ökad transparens och minskad korruption samt stärkta förutsättningar för ett jämställt samhälle. Resultaten är särskilt starka inom mänskliga rättigheter och ansvarsutkrävande och inkluderar bland annat minskad stigmatisering av HBTQI-personer och stärkt samverkan mellan aktörer som verkar för jämställdhet och mot könsbaserad diskriminering. På portföljnivå visar projekten tydliga prestationsnära effekter, särskilt inom områden som attitydförändringar, ökad kapacitet hos målgrupper och etablering av nya samverkansformer. Flera projekt har dessutom bidragit till policyutveckling, nätverksbyggande och långsiktig påverkan. Många av partnerskapen har mynnat ut i planer på fortsatt och fördjupad samverkan, vilket sannolikt bidrar till god hållbarhet och möjlighet till fortsatt arbete för stärkt demokrati och mänskliga rättigheter.

During the year, 14 projects submitted final reports. All of them stated that the project objectives had been met and that the target group had been strengthened in line with the program objectives. During 2025, 21 projects in Eastern Europe were funded under SI CPP. In the cultural sector, projects were carried out that—through literature, documentary film, and photography—helped strengthen freedom of expression, gender equality, and human rights. Other projects created new platforms and networks for experience exchange and capacity development between, for example, independent media actors and journalists, contributing to improved conditions for accountability in the region. SI CPP contributed to strengthened democratic governance and respect for human rights and the rule of law. The programme also contributed to improved conditions for accountability, increased transparency and reduced corruption, as well as strengthened conditions for a gender-equal society. In several of the programme countries, democratic space decreased during the year. Through SI CPP, project participants were given the opportunity to strengthen their knowledge, develop working methods, and build relationships with relevant actors in Sweden and the region; thereby enabling them to work for democracy and human rights despite the overall negative trend in many contexts. SI Creative Partnerships Programme kunde totalt under 2024 bevilja 33 av 134 inkomna ansökningar för alla regioner, vilket motsvarar en beviljandegrad på drygt 24%. Under året slutrapporterade 14 projekt. Samtliga uppgav att projektmålen uppnåtts och att målgruppen stärkts i linje med programmålen. Under 2025 finansierades 21 projekt i Östeuropa inom SI CPP. Inom kultursektorn genomfördes projekt som med hjälp av litteratur, dokumentärfilm och fotografi bidrog till att stärka yttrandefrihet, jämställdhet och mänskliga rättigheter. Andra projekt skapade nya plattformar och nätverk för erfarenhetsutbyte och kompetensutveckling mellan exempelvis oberoende medieaktörer och journalister, vilket bidrog till att förbättra förutsättningarna för ansvarsutkrävande i regionen. SI CPP bidrog till rättsstatens principer och stärkta förutsättningar för ansvarsutkrävande. Programmet bidrog vidare till ökad transparens och minskad korruption samt stärkta förutsättningar för ett jämställt samhälle. I flera av programländerna minskade det demokratiska utrymmet under året. Projektdeltagarna fick genom SI CPP möjlighet att stärka sin kunskap, utveckla arbetssätt och skapa relationer med relevanta aktörer i Sverige och regionen; härigenom kunde de verka för demokrati och mänskliga rättigheter trots att den övergripande trenden på området på många håll var negativ.

SI CPP bidrog till rättsstatens principer och stärkta förutsättningar för ansvarsutkrävande. Programmet bidrog vidare till ökad transparens och minskad korruption samt stärkta förutsättningar för ett jämställt samhälle. I flera av programländerna minskade det demokratiska utrymmet under året. Projektdeltagarna fick genom SI CPP möjlighet att stärka sin kunskap, utveckla arbetssätt och skapa relationer med relevanta aktörer i Sverige och regionen; härigenom kunde de verka för demokrati och mänskliga rättigheter trots att den övergripande trenden på området på många håll var negativ.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

The programme is implemented within the framework of Sweden’s INPAKT strategy objectives and aims to contribute to “enhanced capacity and competence among actors in the private and public sectors, academia, and civil society in developing countries to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry.” The purpose of the leadership programme is therefore to equip participants with increased knowledge of sustainability issues and tools, as well as exposure to good and innovative practices that enable them to drive change and anchor sustainability work within their organisations, while also expanding their professional networks. The programme is designed so that participants—executives within the business sector with mandates to influence and drive change in their respective companies—parallel to gaining theoretical knowledge and exchanging experiences with others active in the same priority sectors, begin implementing concrete sustainability-related change initiatives during the programme: “Strategic Business Projects.” These initiatives, along with the programme’s approach of fostering connections with potential trade and cooperation partners, aim to further embed knowledge and tools within the participants’ companies and to build relevant relationships that help accelerate sustainable development and the green transition within their organisations, and ultimately, in the programme countries. 2024: OVERARCHING GOAL Promote democratic, just, and sustainable development by creating preconditions for better living standards for people living in poverty and under oppression.

In the long term, the SI Public Sector innovation Program shall contribute to the public sector in partner countries conducting activities that lead to an egalitarian, equal, sustainable and/or inclusive society in order to achieve the global goals. To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska SI Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen.

Delprogrammen riktar sig till olika utvalda länder (ofta regionalt) och skiljer sig tematiskt åt. Geografiskt kan delprogrammen överlappa varandra. De resultat som presenteras här är det sammanlagda resultatet över alla slutförda delprogram, men i redovisningen uppdelat på olika länder. Under 2024/2025 slutfördes de 7 av de 8 delprogram som beviljades medel 2023, ett avbröts i förtid på grund av förändrade förutsättningar att driva projektet i Ukraina. Totalt diplomerades 173 deltagare från offentlig sektor i 18 OECD/DAC länder, varav 63% kvinnor. Inom vilken tematik som varje delprogram förväntas visa ökad kunskap och ökade färdigheter för deltagande individer varierar. Det som rapporteras är i vilken grad kunskapsökning och färdighetsökning har skett oavsett tematik. Kunskapsökning, andel som svarat 4-5 på femgradig skala vad gäller kunskaper inom resp tema. Mätt genom enkät efter genomfört program så svarar 82% att de har hög eller mycket hög kunskap inom respektive delprograms tematik. Färdighetsökning, andel som svarat 4-5 på femgradig skala vad gäller färdigheter inom resp tema. Mätt genom enkät efter genomfört program så svarar 80% svarar att de har höga eller mycket höga färdigheter inom respektive delprograms tematik. Överlag har de respektive delprogrammen goda resultat, men några program har mindre tydliga resultat. En insikt som ytterligare förstärkts är att geografi och tematik bör vara mer fokuserat. Inför utlysningen för medel som beviljades 2024 (med slutrapportering 2025) har detta genomförts men då de delprogrammen är pågående har det inte följts upp ännu. Programmet utlyses inte igen för 2025, då istället nya former av mer fokuserat och avgränsat stöd i linje med regeringens strategier kommer att undersökas. In 2024/2025, 7 of the 8 sub-programs that were granted funds in 2023 were completed, one was canceled early due to changed conditions for running the project in Ukraine. A total of 173 participants from the public sector in 18 OECD/DAC countries graduated, of which 63% were women. The theme within each sub-program is expected to show increased knowledge and increased skills for participating individuals varies. The degree to which knowledge growth and skill growth has taken place regardless of the topic is reported. Knowledge increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of knowledge within each theme. Measured by a survey after completing the program, 82% answer that they have a high or very high knowledge of the respective sub-programme's subject matter. Skill increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of skills within each theme. Measured by a survey after completing the program, 80% respond that they have high or very high skills within the respective sub-programme's subject matter. Overall, the respective sub-programmes have good results, but some programs have less clear results. An insight that has been further reinforced is that geography and thematics should be more focused. Prior to the call for funds granted in 2024 (with final reporting in 2025), this has been carried out, but as those sub-programmes are ongoing, it has not yet been followed up.

Delprogrammen riktar sig till olika utvalda länder (ofta regionalt) och skiljer sig tematiskt åt. Geografiskt kan delprogrammen överlappa varandra. De resultat som presenteras här är det sammanlagda resultatet över alla slutförda delprogram, men i redovisningen uppdelat på olika länder. Under 2024/2025 slutfördes de 7 av de 8 delprogram som beviljades medel 2023, ett avbröts i förtid på grund av förändrade förutsättningar att driva projektet i Ukraina. Totalt diplomerades 173 deltagare från offentlig sektor i 18 OECD/DAC länder, varav 63% kvinnor. Inom vilken tematik som varje delprogram förväntas visa ökad kunskap och ökade färdigheter för deltagande individer varierar. Det som rapporteras är i vilken grad kunskapsökning och färdighetsökning har skett oavsett tematik. Kunskapsökning, andel som svarat 4-5 på femgradig skala vad gäller kunskaper inom resp tema. Mätt genom enkät efter genomfört program så svarar 82% att de har hög eller mycket hög kunskap inom respektive delprograms tematik.

Mätt genom enkät efter genomfört program så svarar 80% svarar att de har höga eller mycket höga färdigheter inom respektive delprograms tematik. Överlag har de respektive delprogrammen goda resultat, men några program har mindre tydliga resultat. En insikt som ytterligare förstärkts är att geografi och tematik bör vara mer fokuserat. Inför utlysningen för medel som beviljades 2024 (med slutrapportering 2025) har detta genomförts men då de delprogrammen är pågående har det inte följts upp ännu. Programmet utlyses inte igen för 2025, då istället nya former av mer fokuserat och avgränsat stöd i linje med regeringens strategier kommer att undersökas.

The theme within each sub-program is expected to show increased knowledge and increased skills for participating individuals varies. The degree to which knowledge growth and skill growth has taken place regardless of the topic is reported. Knowledge increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of knowledge within each theme. Measured by a survey after completing the program, 82% answer that they have a high or very high knowledge of the respective sub-programme's subject matter. Skill increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of skills within each theme.

To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska SI Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen. För att bidra till detta ska programmen stärka deltagarnas kunskap om arbetssätt, metoder och förändringsarbete för att driva en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, inkluderande och/eller hållbart samhälle, men också stärka deras tilltro till sin egen förmåga att driva förändringsarbete inom den egna organisationen. Detta görs genom att dels främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, dels bidra till grön omställning och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Efter avslutat program förväntas deltagarna ha ett ökad kunskap inom de berörda frågorna, ett utökat nätverk (både inom och utanför deltagargruppen) samt en stärkt kapacitet att driva förändring i och/eller utanför den egna organisationen. Programmet förväntas också ge en organisatorisk effekt.

The degree to which knowledge growth and skill growth has taken place regardless of the topic is reported.

Measured by a survey after completing the program, 80% respond that they have high or very high skills within the respective sub-programme's subject matter. Overall, the respective sub-programmes have good results, but some programs have less clear results. An insight that has been further reinforced is that geography and thematics should be more focused. Prior to the call for funds granted in 2024 (with final reporting in 2025), this has been carried out, but as those sub-programmes are ongoing, it has not yet been followed up. The SIPSIP- program will not be announced again for 2025, when instead new forms of more focused support in line with the government's strategies will be investigated. SIPSIP-programmet utlystes årligen, och sedan beviljades 7-8 olika delprogram medel som genomförs över 18 månader. Delprogrammen riktar sig till olika utvalda länder (ofta regionalt) och skiljer sig tematiskt åt. Geografiskt kan delprogrammen överlappa varandra. De resultat som presenteras här är det sammanlagda resultatet över alla slutförda delprogram, men i redovisningen uppdelat på olika länder.

In the long term, the SI Public Sector innovation Program shall contribute to the public sector in partner countries conducting activities that lead to an egalitarian, equal, sustainable and/or inclusive society in order to achieve the global goals. To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska SI Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen. För att bidra till detta ska programmen stärka deltagarnas kunskap om arbetssätt, metoder och förändringsarbete för att driva en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, inkluderande och/eller hållbart samhälle, men också stärka deras tilltro till sin egen förmåga att driva förändringsarbete inom den egna organisationen. Detta görs genom att dels främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, dels bidra till grön omställning och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Efter avslutat program förväntas deltagarna ha ett ökad kunskap inom de berörda frågorna, ett utökat nätverk (både inom och utanför deltagargruppen) samt en stärkt kapacitet att driva förändring i och/eller utanför den egna organisationen. Programmet förväntas också ge en organisatorisk effekt.

In the long term, the SI Public Sector innovation Program shall contribute to the public sector in partner countries conducting activities that lead to an egalitarian, equal, sustainable and/or inclusive society in order to achieve the global goals. To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska SI Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen. För att bidra till detta ska programmen stärka deltagarnas kunskap om arbetssätt, metoder och förändringsarbete för att driva en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, inkluderande och/eller hållbart samhälle, men också stärka deras tilltro till sin egen förmåga att driva förändringsarbete inom den egna organisationen. Detta görs genom att dels främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, dels bidra till grön omställning och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Efter avslutat program förväntas deltagarna ha ett ökad kunskap inom de berörda frågorna, ett utökat nätverk (både inom och utanför deltagargruppen) samt en stärkt kapacitet att driva förändring i och/eller utanför den egna organisationen. Programmet förväntas också ge en organisatorisk effekt.

A total of 173 participants from the public sector in 18 OECD/DAC countries graduated, of which 63% were women. The theme within each sub-program is expected to show increased knowledge and increased skills for participating individuals varies. The degree to which knowledge growth and skill growth has taken place regardless of the topic is reported. Knowledge increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of knowledge within each theme. Measured by a survey after completing the program, 82% answer that they have a high or very high knowledge of the respective sub-programme's subject matter. Skill increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of skills within each theme. Measured by a survey after completing the program, 80% respond that they have high or very high skills within the respective sub-programme's subject matter. Overall, the respective sub-programmes have good results, but some programs have less clear results. An insight that has been further reinforced is that geography and thematics should be more focused. Prior to the call for funds granted in 2024 (with final reporting in 2025), this has been carried out, but as those sub-programmes are ongoing, it has not yet been followed up. The SIPSIP- program will not be announced again for 2025, when instead new forms of more focused support in line with the government's strategies will be investigated. SIPSIP-programmet utlystes årligen, och sedan beviljades 7-8 olika delprogram medel som genomförs över 18 månader. Delprogrammen riktar sig till olika utvalda länder (ofta regionalt) och skiljer sig tematiskt åt. Geografiskt kan delprogrammen överlappa varandra. De resultat som presenteras här är det sammanlagda resultatet över alla slutförda delprogram, men i redovisningen uppdelat på olika länder. Under 2024/2025 slutfördes de 7 av de 8 delprogram som beviljades medel 2023, ett avbröts i förtid på grund av förändrade förutsättningar att driva projektet i Ukraina. Totalt diplomerades 173 deltagare från offentlig sektor i 18 OECD/DAC länder, varav 63% kvinnor. Inom vilken tematik som varje delprogram förväntas visa ökad kunskap och ökade färdigheter för deltagande individer varierar. Det som rapporteras är i vilken grad kunskapsökning och färdighetsökning har skett oavsett tematik. Kunskapsökning, andel som svarat 4-5 på femgradig skala vad gäller kunskaper inom resp tema. Mätt genom enkät efter genomfört program så svarar 82% att de har hög eller mycket hög kunskap inom respektive delprograms tematik. Färdighetsökning, andel som svarat 4-5 på femgradig skala vad gäller färdigheter inom resp tema. Mätt genom enkät efter genomfört program så svarar 80% svarar att de har höga eller mycket höga färdigheter inom respektive delprograms tematik. Överlag har de respektive delprogrammen goda resultat, men några program har mindre tydliga resultat. En insikt som ytterligare förstärkts är att geografi och tematik bör vara mer fokuserat. Inför utlysningen för medel som beviljades 2024 (med slutrapportering 2025) har detta genomförts men då de delprogrammen är pågående har det inte följts upp ännu. Programmet utlyses inte igen för 2025, då istället nya former av mer fokuserat och avgränsat stöd i linje med regeringens strategier kommer att undersökas.

Skill increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of skills within each theme. Measured by a survey after completing the program, 80% respond that they have high or very high skills within the respective sub-programme's subject matter. Overall, the respective sub-programmes have good results, but some programs have less clear results. An insight that has been further reinforced is that geography and thematics should be more focused. Prior to the call for funds granted in 2024 (with final reporting in 2025), this has been carried out, but as those sub-programmes are ongoing, it has not yet been followed up. The SIPSIP- program will not be announced again for 2025, when instead new forms of more focused support in line with the government's strategies will be investigated. No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-24-SIPSIP-5027-ZAMBIA-1 Sweden SI Public Sector Innovation Programme is implemented in collaboration with universities and colleges. Financial support for organisations with capacity-enhancing training programmes, focusing on innovation and green transition in the public sector for participants living in OECD/DAC countries. The training programmes are for public sector employees and elected representatives from more than 20 OECD/DAC countries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Indonesia, Kenya, Malawi, Moldova, North Macedonia, Rwanda, South Sudan, South Africa, Tanzania, Türkiye, Uganda, Ukraine, Zambia). The purpose is to strengthen the capacity of professionals to contribute to innovation and green transition in the public sector in low and middle income countries and thereby contributing to sustainable development as well as economic development in these countries.

Ekonomiskt stöd till organisationer med kapacitetshöjande utbildningsprogram, med fokus på innovation och grön omställning i den offentliga sektorn för deltagare som bor i OECD/DAC-länder. Utbildningsprogrammen är för anställda inom den offentliga sektorn och förtroendevalda från mer än 20 OECD/DAC-länder (Armenien, Azerbajdzjan, Kambodja, Etiopien, Georgien, Indonesien, Kenya, Malawi, Moldavien, Nordmakedonien, Rwanda, Sydsudan, Sydafrika, Tanzania, Turkiet, Uganda, Ukraina, Zambia). Syftet är att stärka yrkesverksammas kapacitet att bidra till innovation och grön omställning inom offentlig sektor i låg- och medelinkomstländer och därmed bidra till hållbar utveckling såväl som ekonomisk utveckling i dessa länder. Mer information https://si.se/sv/svenska-institutet-fortsätter-stödja-internationella-utbildningsprogram-med-fokusering-på-innovation-och-hållbarhet-i-den-offentliga-sektorn/ Long-term: Strengthened capacity of professionals (public sector employees and elected representatives) to work with innovation and green transition in the public sector and through this support the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. In the long term, the SI Public Sector innovation Program shall contribute to the public sector in partner countries conducting activities that lead to an egalitarian, equal, sustainable and/or inclusive society in order to achieve the global goals. To contribute to this, the programs must strengthen the participants' knowledge of working methods, methods and change work to run an activity that leads to an equal, equal, inclusive and/or sustainable society, but also strengthen their confidence in their own ability to drive change work within the own organization. This is done by partly promoting innovation and renewal in the public sector, partly contributing to a green transition and thus contributing to the implementation of Agenda 2030. After completing the program, the participants are expected to have increased knowledge in the relevant issues, an expanded network (both within and outside the participant group) and a strengthened capacity to drive change in and/or outside their own organization. The program is also expected to have an organizational effect. På lång sikt ska SI Public Sector innovation Programme bidra till att offentlig sektor i samarbetsländer bedriver en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, hållbart och/eller inkluderande samhälle för att uppnå de globala målen. För att bidra till detta ska programmen stärka deltagarnas kunskap om arbetssätt, metoder och förändringsarbete för att driva en verksamhet som leder till ett jämlikt, jämställt, inkluderande och/eller hållbart samhälle, men också stärka deras tilltro till sin egen förmåga att driva förändringsarbete inom den egna organisationen. Detta görs genom att dels främja innovation och förnyelse i offentlig sektor, dels bidra till grön omställning och på så sätt bidra till implementeringen av Agenda 2030. Efter avslutat program förväntas deltagarna ha ett ökad kunskap inom de berörda frågorna, ett utökat nätverk (både inom och utanför deltagargruppen) samt en stärkt kapacitet att driva förändring i och/eller utanför den egna organisationen. Programmet förväntas också ge en organisatorisk effekt.

Expected results 2024: The programme as a whole will contribute to global sustainable development. The scholarship holders are expected to use their knowledge, insights, tools and networks in the work for sustainable development where they are. In this way, organizations/institutions have an improved access to skilled labor in specific areas – which leads to an increased capacity in low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda. Within 1-3 years, the programme is expected to contribute to organisations in partner countries having improved access to a skilled and equal workforce in relevant areas. Within 3-5 years, the programme is expected to contribute to an increased capacity of low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda and thus contribute to global sustainable development Expected immediate results The performance-related effects are that these change agents, through a university education and participation in NFGP, gain knowledge, insights, tools and a larger network. That they gain contacts and exchange experiences with other change agents and that they are strengthened in their leadership skills. The immediate/performance-related effects are as follows: • Awarded scholarship holders undergo and complete their studies at advanced level in Sweden. • Individuals are given tools to better contribute to global development • Individuals gain contacts and exchange of experience with other change agents. Expected results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should according to the governing Strategy for innovation, partnership and capacity development 2024–2028 strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries through education. A prerequisite for this is that the selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level at Swedish universities. After completed master’s studies in Sweden, the scholarship holders are expected to have strengthened their abilities and capacity to contribute to sustainable development.

In this way, organizations/institutions have an improved access to skilled labor in specific areas – which leads to an increased capacity in low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda. Within 1-3 years, the programme is expected to contribute to organisations in partner countries having improved access to a skilled and equal workforce in relevant areas. Within 3-5 years, the programme is expected to contribute to an increased capacity of low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda and thus contribute to global sustainable development Expected immediate results The performance-related effects are that these change agents, through a university education and participation in NFGP, gain knowledge, insights, tools and a larger network. That they gain contacts and exchange experiences with other change agents and that they are strengthened in their leadership skills. The immediate/performance-related effects are as follows: • Awarded scholarship holders undergo and complete their studies at advanced level in Sweden. • Individuals are given tools to better contribute to global development • Individuals gain contacts and exchange of experience with other change agents. Expected results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should according to the governing Strategy for innovation, partnership and capacity development 2024–2028 strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries through education. A prerequisite for this is that the selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level at Swedish universities. After completed master’s studies in Sweden, the scholarship holders are expected to have strengthened their abilities and capacity to contribute to sustainable development. This through employment in key positions in the private sector, public sector, academia or civil society in their home countries and that they use the knowledge and competences they gained through studies in Sweden to address societal challenges through innovative and effective measures. Förväntade resultat 2024: Programmet i stort ska bidra till en global hållbar utveckling. Stipendiaterna förväntas använda sina kunskaper, insikter, verktyg och nätverk i arbetet för en hållbar utveckling där de befinner sig. På så sätt har organisationer/institutioner en förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad arbetskraft inom särskilda områden – vilket leder till en ökad kapacitet i låg- och medel-inkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030. Inom 1–3 år förväntas programmet bidra till att organisationer i partnerländerna har förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad och jämställd arbetskraft inom relevanta områden. Inom 3–5 år förväntas programmet bidra till en ökad kapacitet hos låg- och medelinkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030 och därmed bidra till en globalt hållbar utveckling Förväntade omedelbara resultat De prestationsnära effekterna är att dessa förändringsaktörer, genom en högskoleutbildning och deltagande i NFGP, får kunskaper, insikter, verktyg och ett större nätverk. Att de får kontakter och erfarenhetsutbyten med andra förändringsaktörer samt att de stärks i sin ledarskapsförmåga.

Expected results 2024: The programme as a whole will contribute to global sustainable development. The scholarship holders are expected to use their knowledge, insights, tools and networks in the work for sustainable development where they are. In this way, organizations/institutions have an improved access to skilled labor in specific areas – which leads to an increased capacity in low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda. Within 1-3 years, the programme is expected to contribute to organisations in partner countries having improved access to a skilled and equal workforce in relevant areas. Within 3-5 years, the programme is expected to contribute to an increased capacity of low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda and thus contribute to global sustainable development Expected immediate results The performance-related effects are that these change agents, through a university education and participation in NFGP, gain knowledge, insights, tools and a larger network. That they gain contacts and exchange experiences with other change agents and that they are strengthened in their leadership skills. The immediate/performance-related effects are as follows: • Awarded scholarship holders undergo and complete their studies at advanced level in Sweden. • Individuals are given tools to better contribute to global development • Individuals gain contacts and exchange of experience with other change agents. Expected results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should according to the governing Strategy for innovation, partnership and capacity development 2024–2028 strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries through education. A prerequisite for this is that the selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level at Swedish universities. After completed master’s studies in Sweden, the scholarship holders are expected to have strengthened their abilities and capacity to contribute to sustainable development. This through employment in key positions in the private sector, public sector, academia or civil society in their home countries and that they use the knowledge and competences they gained through studies in Sweden to address societal challenges through innovative and effective measures. Förväntade resultat 2024: Programmet i stort ska bidra till en global hållbar utveckling. Stipendiaterna förväntas använda sina kunskaper, insikter, verktyg och nätverk i arbetet för en hållbar utveckling där de befinner sig. På så sätt har organisationer/institutioner en förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad arbetskraft inom särskilda områden – vilket leder till en ökad kapacitet i låg- och medel-inkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030. Inom 1–3 år förväntas programmet bidra till att organisationer i partnerländerna har förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad och jämställd arbetskraft inom relevanta områden. Inom 3–5 år förväntas programmet bidra till en ökad kapacitet hos låg- och medelinkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030 och därmed bidra till en globalt hållbar utveckling Förväntade omedelbara resultat De prestationsnära effekterna är att dessa förändringsaktörer, genom en högskoleutbildning och deltagande i NFGP, får kunskaper, insikter, verktyg och ett större nätverk. Att de får kontakter och erfarenhetsutbyten med andra förändringsaktörer samt att de stärks i sin ledarskapsförmåga. De omedelbara/prestationsnära effekterna är följande: •Beviljade stipendiater genomgår och slutför sina studier på avancerad nivå i Sverige. •Individerna får verktyg för att bättre kunna bidra till en global utveckling •Individerna får kontakter och erfarenhetsutbyten med andra förändringsaktörer. Förväntade resultat 2025: Svenska institutets stipendieprogram ska enligt Strategin för Innovation, Partnerskap och Kapacitetsutveckling (2024-2028) stärka kompetensen hos relevanta aktörer som genom utbildning kan bidra till en hållbar utveckling i utvecklingsländer. En grundförutsättning för att uppnå detta är att stipendiaterna som väljs ut i programmet är kvalificerade att genomföra och slutföra kvalitativ utbildning på mastersnivå vid svenska universitet. Vidare förväntas stipendiaterna efter genomförd masterutbildning i Sverige få stärkt förmåga och kompetens att bidra till hållbar utveckling. Detta genom anställning inom näringsliv, offentlig sektor, akademi eller civilsamhälle i sina hemländer samt att de använder kunskapen för att ta sig an samhällsutmaningar genom effektiva och innovativa metoder.

Expected results 2024: The programme as a whole will contribute to global sustainable development. The scholarship holders are expected to use their knowledge, insights, tools and networks in the work for sustainable development where they are. In this way, organizations/institutions have an improved access to skilled labor in specific areas – which leads to an increased capacity in low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda. Within 1-3 years, the programme is expected to contribute to organisations in partner countries having improved access to a skilled and equal workforce in relevant areas. Within 3-5 years, the programme is expected to contribute to an increased capacity of low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda and thus contribute to global sustainable development Expected immediate results The performance-related effects are that these change agents, through a university education and participation in NFGP, gain knowledge, insights, tools and a larger network. That they gain contacts and exchange experiences with other change agents and that they are strengthened in their leadership skills. The immediate/performance-related effects are as follows: • Awarded scholarship holders undergo and complete their studies at advanced level in Sweden. • Individuals are given tools to better contribute to global development • Individuals gain contacts and exchange of experience with other change agents. Expected results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should according to the governing Strategy for innovation, partnership and capacity development 2024–2028 strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries through education. A prerequisite for this is that the selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level at Swedish universities. After completed master’s studies in Sweden, the scholarship holders are expected to have strengthened their abilities and capacity to contribute to sustainable development. This through employment in key positions in the private sector, public sector, academia or civil society in their home countries and that they use the knowledge and competences they gained through studies in Sweden to address societal challenges through innovative and effective measures. Förväntade resultat 2024: Programmet i stort ska bidra till en global hållbar utveckling.

Expected results 2024: The programme as a whole will contribute to global sustainable development. The scholarship holders are expected to use their knowledge, insights, tools and networks in the work for sustainable development where they are. In this way, organizations/institutions have an improved access to skilled labor in specific areas – which leads to an increased capacity in low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda. Within 1-3 years, the programme is expected to contribute to organisations in partner countries having improved access to a skilled and equal workforce in relevant areas. Within 3-5 years, the programme is expected to contribute to an increased capacity of low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda and thus contribute to global sustainable development Expected immediate results The performance-related effects are that these change agents, through a university education and participation in NFGP, gain knowledge, insights, tools and a larger network. That they gain contacts and exchange experiences with other change agents and that they are strengthened in their leadership skills. The immediate/performance-related effects are as follows: • Awarded scholarship holders undergo and complete their studies at advanced level in Sweden. • Individuals are given tools to better contribute to global development • Individuals gain contacts and exchange of experience with other change agents. Expected results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should according to the governing Strategy for innovation, partnership and capacity development 2024–2028 strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries through education. A prerequisite for this is that the selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level at Swedish universities.

På så sätt har organisationer/institutioner en förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad arbetskraft inom särskilda områden – vilket leder till en ökad kapacitet i låg- och medel-inkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030. Inom 1–3 år förväntas programmet bidra till att organisationer i partnerländerna har förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad och jämställd arbetskraft inom relevanta områden. Inom 3–5 år förväntas programmet bidra till en ökad kapacitet hos låg- och medelinkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030 och därmed bidra till en globalt hållbar utveckling Förväntade omedelbara resultat De prestationsnära effekterna är att dessa förändringsaktörer, genom en högskoleutbildning och deltagande i NFGP, får kunskaper, insikter, verktyg och ett större nätverk. Att de får kontakter och erfarenhetsutbyten med andra förändringsaktörer samt att de stärks i sin ledarskapsförmåga.

Stipendiet riktar sig till personer med yrkes- och ledarskapserfarenhet och syftar till att stärka stipendiaters förmåga, kompetens och förutsättningar att göra meningsfulla bidrag till hållbar utveckling i sina hemländer. Stipendiet är tillgänglig för sökande från 34 OECD/DAC länder (2026) och inkluderar masterprogram inom områdena STEM, entreprenörskap och innovation, folkhälsa och samhällsstyre. Läshänvisning: Detta är ett sammanhållet program som täcker kostnader för studenter från flera länder. Det totala finansiella utfallet för masterstudenter från respektive land visas på openaid.som separata insatser. Det betyder att insatsen återkommer flera gånger. Expected results 2024: The programme as a whole will contribute to global sustainable development. The scholarship holders are expected to use their knowledge, insights, tools and networks in the work for sustainable development where they are. In this way, organizations/institutions have an improved access to skilled labor in specific areas – which leads to an increased capacity in low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda. Within 1-3 years, the programme is expected to contribute to organisations in partner countries having improved access to a skilled and equal workforce in relevant areas. Within 3-5 years, the programme is expected to contribute to an increased capacity of low- and middle-income countries to implement the 2030 Agenda and thus contribute to global sustainable development Expected immediate results The performance-related effects are that these change agents, through a university education and participation in NFGP, gain knowledge, insights, tools and a larger network. That they gain contacts and exchange experiences with other change agents and that they are strengthened in their leadership skills. The immediate/performance-related effects are as follows: • Awarded scholarship holders undergo and complete their studies at advanced level in Sweden. • Individuals are given tools to better contribute to global development • Individuals gain contacts and exchange of experience with other change agents. Expected results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should according to the governing Strategy for innovation, partnership and capacity development 2024–2028 strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries through education. A prerequisite for this is that the selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level at Swedish universities. After completed master’s studies in Sweden, the scholarship holders are expected to have strengthened their abilities and capacity to contribute to sustainable development. This through employment in key positions in the private sector, public sector, academia or civil society in their home countries and that they use the knowledge and competences they gained through studies in Sweden to address societal challenges through innovative and effective measures. Förväntade resultat 2024: Programmet i stort ska bidra till en global hållbar utveckling. Stipendiaterna förväntas använda sina kunskaper, insikter, verktyg och nätverk i arbetet för en hållbar utveckling där de befinner sig. På så sätt har organisationer/institutioner en förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad arbetskraft inom särskilda områden – vilket leder till en ökad kapacitet i låg- och medel-inkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030. Inom 1–3 år förväntas programmet bidra till att organisationer i partnerländerna har förbättrad tillgång till kvalificerad och jämställd arbetskraft inom relevanta områden. Inom 3–5 år förväntas programmet bidra till en ökad kapacitet hos låg- och medelinkomstländer att genomföra Agenda 2030 och därmed bidra till en globalt hållbar utveckling Förväntade omedelbara resultat De prestationsnära effekterna är att dessa förändringsaktörer, genom en högskoleutbildning och deltagande i NFGP, får kunskaper, insikter, verktyg och ett större nätverk. Att de får kontakter och erfarenhetsutbyten med andra förändringsaktörer samt att de stärks i sin ledarskapsförmåga. De omedelbara/prestationsnära effekterna är följande: •Beviljade stipendiater genomgår och slutför sina studier på avancerad nivå i Sverige. •Individerna får verktyg för att bättre kunna bidra till en global utveckling •Individerna får kontakter och erfarenhetsutbyten med andra förändringsaktörer. Förväntade resultat 2025: Svenska institutets stipendieprogram ska enligt Strategin för Innovation, Partnerskap och Kapacitetsutveckling (2024-2028) stärka kompetensen hos relevanta aktörer som genom utbildning kan bidra till en hållbar utveckling i utvecklingsländer. En grundförutsättning för att uppnå detta är att stipendiaterna som väljs ut i programmet är kvalificerade att genomföra och slutföra kvalitativ utbildning på mastersnivå vid svenska universitet. Vidare förväntas stipendiaterna efter genomförd masterutbildning i Sverige få stärkt förmåga och kompetens att bidra till hållbar utveckling. Detta genom anställning inom näringsliv, offentlig sektor, akademi eller civilsamhälle i sina hemländer samt att de använder kunskapen för att ta sig an samhällsutmaningar genom effektiva och innovativa metoder.

The aim is to contribute to Ukraine’s reconstruction, reform efforts, and EU integration process by strengthening the capacity of institutions and organizations, as well as enhancing the skills and competencies of individuals. The programme is based on the Swedish Government’s Strategy for Reconstruction and Reform Cooperation with Ukraine 2023–2027 and operates within two strategic objectives: inclusive economic development, entrepreneurship, and trade, and human rights, democracy, the rule of law, and gender equality. Project owners may apply for funding for Project Preparation (network-building and feasibility studies) or Cooperation Projects (capacity-building interventions) through an open call format. SI’s target group consists of change agents in Ukraine—individuals and organizations—from the public and private sectors, civil society, and academia, with long-term ambitions to contribute to democratic and economic development. Applications are submitted by a Swedish organization in cooperation with Ukrainian partners to address challenges in Ukraine. Selection is carried out according to established criteria and portfolio balance, through internal and external assessments. A key added value of working through project financing and open calls is that a broad range of Swedish stakeholders can be mobilized and engaged. In this way, Swedish expertise and experience can contribute to Ukraine’s development. Over the course of the strategy period, the programme is expected to have awarded funding to approximately 200 projects in total. The training programme is also included as of 2025. SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme möjliggör projektsamarbete mellan svenska och ukrainska aktörer genom öppna utlysningar. Syftet är att bidra till Ukrainas återuppbyggnad, reformarbete och EU-integrationsprocess genom att stärka kapacitet hos institutioner och organisationer och stärkt kompetens hos individer. Programmet utgår från regeringens strategi för uppbyggnads- och reformsamarbete med Ukraina 2023–2027 och verkar inom två strategimål: inkluderande ekonomisk utveckling, företagande och handel samt mänskliga rättigheter, demokrati, rättsstatens principer och jämställdhet. Projektägare kan söka bidrag för Projektförberedelse (kontaktskapande och förstudier) eller Samarbetsprojekt (kapacitetsstärkande insatser) genom öppet utlysningsformat. SI:s målgrupp är förändringsaktörer i Ukraina – individer och organisationer - från offentlig, privat sektor, civila samhället och akademi, med långsiktiga målsättningar att bidra till demokratisk och ekonomisk utveckling. Ansökan lämnas av en svensk aktör i samarbete med ukrainska partners för att lösa utmaningar i Ukraina. Urval sker genom enligt fastställda kriterier och portföljbalans genom intern och extern bedömning. Ett stort mervärde med att arbeta genom projektfinansiering och öppna utlysningar är att en bredd av den svenska resursbasen kan mobiliseras och engageras. På så sätt kan svensk kompetens och erfarenhet bidra till utvecklingen av Ukraina. Under hela strategiperioden förväntas aktiviteten sammantaget ha beviljat cirka 200 projektstöd. Från 2025 omfattas här även utbildningsprogram. The programme is intended to strengthen the capacity of Ukrainian organizations and institutions to drive reconstruction and reform processes, as well as to provide individuals with enhanced skills and access to networks. This will better equip actors to promote economic and democratic development in line with Ukraine’s EU integration objectives. The results are linked to the two strategic objective areas for which SI has a mandate: inclusive economic development, entrepreneurship, and trade promotion, and human rights, democracy, the rule of law, and gender equality. To achieve these objectives, SI needs to approve high-quality applications and ensure that projects are implemented, and final reports are submitted in a satisfactory manner. Programmet ska leda till att stärka ukrainska organisationers och institutioners kapacitet att driva uppbyggnads- och reformprocesser samt ge individer ökad kompetens och tillgång till nätverk. Detta gör aktörer bättre rustade att främja ekonomisk och demokratisk utveckling i linje med Ukrainas EU-integrationsmål. Resultaten kopplas till de två målområden där SI har uppdrag: inkluderande ekonomisk utveckling, företagande och handelsfrämjande samt mänskliga rättigheter, demokrati, rättsstatens principer och jämställdhet. För att nå dessa mål behöver SI bevilja ett tillräckligt antal ansökningar av god kvalitet och säkerställa att projekten genomförs och slutrapporteras på ett tillfredsställande sätt. Förändringen uppnås genom projektstöd genom öppna utlysningar där svenska och ukrainska aktörer samarbetar i projekt som adresserar identifierade behov i Ukraina. Projekten ska leda till att målgrupperna stärks i kapacitet och förmåga, och att enskilda deltagare får ökad kompetens, erfarenheter och nätverk i linje med programmets tematiska inriktningar. Detta ska i sin tur bidra till förändrade beteenden och arbetssätt – både på individuell och organisatorisk nivå, vilket skapar förutsättningar för reformer och långsiktig utveckling som stärker demokratisk styrning och ekonomisk återhämtning.

The programme is implemented through project funding, where Swedish actors cooperate with Ukrainian partner organizations. A preliminary analysis shows that the programme has begun to deliver results, even though only a limited number of approved projects have so far reached the final reporting phase and/or been completed. At the performance level, the quantitative targets for the number of applications received and the number of project grants awarded have shown good target achievement across the two calls implemented to date. Since the start of the programme, 110 projects have been approved, of which 47 were approved in 2025. The projects cover several thematic areas linked to strategic objectives and EU negotiation chapters. During 2025, 14 project preparation projects were completed. 88 percent of respondents assessed that the predefined project objectives had been achieved to a large or very large extent. According to the submitted final reports, the project preparation activities—which were primarily intended to lay the foundation for cooperation—have led both to the establishment of new (or expanded) partnerships and to continued funding, as well as to tangible behavioral change among Ukrainian partner organizations or stakeholders. The reports also show results in the form of strengthened knowledge and capacity through studies, pilot training activities, and the development of expertise in EU law, standardisation, and digitalisation. In addition, new partnerships and working routines have been established that are expected to be sustainable over time. Based on the 29 interim reports received, early results can be observed in the form of updated courses, new ways of working, and strengthened networks. Taken together, the projects contribute to democratic governance, economic recovery, and inclusive employment—key elements for Ukraine’s EU integration and the strategic objectives of inclusive economic development, as well as democracy, human rights, and gender equality.

Projektförberedelserna som i huvudsak var tänkta att lägga grunden till samarbete har enligt inlämnade slutrapporter dels lett till etableringen av nya (eller expanderade) partnerskap, dels till fortsatt finansiering, men också till faktisk beteendeförändring hos ukrainska samarbetsparter eller intressenter. Dessa visar också på resultat i form av stärkt kunskap och kapacitet genom studier, pilotutbildningar och utveckling av expertis inom EU-rätt, standardisering och digitalisering. De har även etablerat nya partnerskap och rutiner som förväntas bestå. Med utgångspunkt i de 29 inkomna interimsrapporterna ser vi tidiga resultat i form av uppdaterade kurser, nya arbetssätt och stärkta nätverk.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-24-SIUCPP-DEV-5036-DEV-1 Sweden Administrative costs for implementing SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme The SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme enables project-based collaboration between Swedish and Ukrainian actors through open calls for proposals. The aim is to contribute to Ukraine’s reconstruction, reform efforts, and EU integration process by strengthening the capacity of institutions and organizations, as well as enhancing the skills and competencies of individuals. The programme is based on the Swedish Government’s Strategy for Reconstruction and Reform Cooperation with Ukraine 2023–2027 and operates within two strategic objectives: inclusive economic development, entrepreneurship, and trade, and human rights, democracy, the rule of law, and gender equality. Project owners may apply for funding for Project Preparation (network-building and feasibility studies) or Cooperation Projects (capacity-building interventions) through an open call format. SI’s target group consists of change agents in Ukraine—individuals and organizations—from the public and private sectors, civil society, and academia, with long-term ambitions to contribute to democratic and economic development. Applications are submitted by a Swedish organization in cooperation with Ukrainian partners to address challenges in Ukraine. Selection is carried out according to established criteria and portfolio balance, through internal and external assessments. A key added value of working through project financing and open calls is that a broad range of Swedish stakeholders can be mobilized and engaged. In this way, Swedish expertise and experience can contribute to Ukraine’s development. Over the course of the strategy period, the programme is expected to have awarded funding to approximately 200 projects in total. Administrativa kostnader: SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme: Projektförberedande och Samarbetsprojekt SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme möjliggör projektsamarbete mellan svenska och ukrainska aktörer genom öppna utlysningar. Syftet är att bidra till Ukrainas återuppbyggnad, reformarbete och EU-integrationsprocess genom att stärka kapacitet hos institutioner och organisationer och stärkt kompetens hos individer. Programmet utgår från regeringens strategi för uppbyggnads- och reformsamarbete med Ukraina 2023–2027 och verkar inom två strategimål: inkluderande ekonomisk utveckling, företagande och handel samt mänskliga rättigheter, demokrati, rättsstatens principer och jämställdhet. Projektägare kan söka bidrag för Projektförberedelse (kontaktskapande och förstudier) eller Samarbetsprojekt (kapacitetsstärkande insatser) genom öppet utlysningsformat. SI:s målgrupp är förändringsaktörer i Ukraina – individer och organisationer - från offentlig, privat sektor, civila samhället och akademi, med långsiktiga målsättningar att bidra till demokratisk och ekonomisk utveckling. Ansökan lämnas av en svensk aktör i samarbete med ukrainska partners för att lösa utmaningar i Ukraina. Urval sker genom enligt fastställda kriterier och portföljbalans genom intern och extern bedömning. Ett stort mervärde med att arbeta genom projektfinansiering och öppna utlysningar är att en bredd av den svenska resursbasen kan mobiliseras och engageras. På så sätt kan svensk kompetens och erfarenhet bidra till utvecklingen av Ukraina. Under hela strategiperioden förväntas aktiviteten sammantaget ha beviljat cirka 200 projektstöd. The programme is intended to strengthen the capacity of Ukrainian organizations and institutions to drive reconstruction and reform processes, as well as to provide individuals with enhanced skills and access to networks. This will better equip actors to promote economic and democratic development in line with Ukraine’s EU integration objectives. The results are linked to the two strategic objective areas for which SI has a mandate: inclusive economic development, entrepreneurship, and trade promotion, and human rights, democracy, the rule of law, and gender equality. To achieve these objectives, SI needs to approve high-quality applications and ensure that projects are implemented, and final reports are submitted in a satisfactory manner. Programmet ska leda till att stärka ukrainska organisationers och institutioners kapacitet att driva uppbyggnads- och reformprocesser samt ge individer ökad kompetens och tillgång till nätverk. Detta gör aktörer bättre rustade att främja ekonomisk och demokratisk utveckling i linje med Ukrainas EU-integrationsmål. Resultaten kopplas till de två målområden där SI har uppdrag: inkluderande ekonomisk utveckling, företagande och handelsfrämjande samt mänskliga rättigheter, demokrati, rättsstatens principer och jämställdhet. För att nå dessa mål behöver SI bevilja ett tillräckligt antal ansökningar av god kvalitet och säkerställa att projekten genomförs och slutrapporteras på ett tillfredsställande sätt. Förändringen uppnås genom projektstöd genom öppna utlysningar där svenska och ukrainska aktörer samarbetar i projekt som adresserar identifierade behov i Ukraina. Projekten ska leda till att målgrupperna stärks i kapacitet och förmåga, och att enskilda deltagare får ökad kompetens, erfarenheter och nätverk i linje med programmets tematiska inriktningar. Detta ska i sin tur bidra till förändrade beteenden och arbetssätt – både på individuell och organisatorisk nivå, vilket skapar förutsättningar för reformer och långsiktig utveckling som stärker demokratisk styrning och ekonomisk återhämtning.

These programmes sets out to promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation, thereby connecting to SDG9 goal in promoting sustainable and inclusive industrial growth and increasing research, technological capacity, and innovation. The programme also sets out to promote cross-sector collaboration between governments, the private sector, civil society, and international organizations, thereby building access to technology, innovation, and knowledge‑sharing to promote capacity building effective partnerships. In 2025, visitors programme activity took a starting point in the thematic of sustainable forestry and wood construction, industry sectors in which Sweden both has a strong heritage as well as strong modern day innovation capabilities. Based on this thematic the visitors programme Woodlife Business was developed, connecting key actors across local forestry and construction value in two programme countries, Türkiye and Thailand. The fact that Thailand and Türkiye were selected has an explanation: the embassies in those countries have turned to the SI and requested support in implementing a visitor program. Both embassies have been working with the Woodlife Sweden exhibition for several years, and in connection with the exhibition being shown, they have – particularly the embassy in Nairobi – promoted the issue of transitioning to timber construction through receptions, breakfast seminars, and other types of events. The networks of stakeholders in Thailand and Türkiye that have been established through this work are now the focus of a visitor program organized by SI, partly to enable them to learn from and be inspired by Swedish experiences, and partly to explore whether there are concrete collaboration opportunities between Swedish and Thai, as well as Turkish, actors. The aim of the visitor programmes is to strengthen the participants' capacity and skills to nurture the growth and impact sustainable forestry and construction in wood in the local context as a way to reduce local climate footprint and promote the development of sustainable cities of the future. In doing so, the programme aims to contribute to long-term sustainable development and synergies with trade and business, in the form of new jobs and new solutions that promote sustainable development and economic growth. SI finansierar besöksprogram som en del av vårt arbete inom den svenska strategin för utvecklingssamarbete, Strategi för innovation, partnerskap och kapacitetsutveckling 2024–2028. Dessa program syftar till att främja hållbar industrialisering och stärka innovationsförmåga, och kopplar därmed till mål 9 i de globala målen genom att stödja hållbar och inkluderande industriell tillväxt samt stärka forskning, teknologisk kapacitet och innovation. Programmet syftar även till att främja sektorsövergripande samarbete mellan regeringar, näringsliv, civilsamhälle och internationella organisationer. På så sätt stärks tillgången till teknik, innovation och kunskapsdelning, vilket i sin tur bidrar till kapacitetsutveckling och effektiva partnerskap i linje med mål 17. Besöksprogram genomförs av Svenska Institutet med stöd av upphandlade programkonsulter, samt i samverkan med svenska organisationer och företag med expertis och erfarenhet inom tematiker knutna till svenska styrkeområden. År 2025 utgick verksamheten inom besöksprogrammet från temat hållbart skogsbruk och träbyggande – industrisektorer där Sverige både har ett starkt arv och en hög innovationsförmåga i nutid. Utifrån detta tema utvecklades besöksprogrammet Woodlife Business, som knyter samman centrala aktörer inom de lokala värdekedjorna för skogsbruk och byggnation i två programländer: Türkiye och Thailand. Att det blev just Thailand och Turkiet har sin förklaring i att de ambassaderna har vänt sig till SI och efterfrågat stöd i genomförandet av ett besöksprogram. Båda ambassaden har arbetat med utställningen Woodlife Sweden sedan flera år tillbaka och i samband med att utställningen har visats har de, i synnerhet ambassaden i Nairboi, drivit frågan omställning till träbyggande i samband med mottagningar, frukostseminarier och andra typer av evenemang. Det nätverk av aktörer i Thailand respektive Turkiet som då har etablerats i båda länderna har SI ordnat ett besöksprogram för, dels för att lära sig/inspireras av svenska erfarenheter dels för att undersöka om det finns konkreta samarbetsmöjligheter för svenska och thailändska respektive turkiska aktörer. 2025 utgick besöksprogram från det svenska styrkeområdet hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, med erbjudande som riktade sig till nyckelpersoner verksamma inom lokala skogsvärdekedjor i programländerna. Genom besöksprogrammet var målet att erbjuda deltagarna kunskap, inspiration och ett nationellt nätverk som hjälper dem att utveckla sina organisationer och lokala ekosystem att bättre främja hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, som ett led i att förebygga klimatrelaterade utmaningar. Deltagarna rekryterades av svenska utlandsmyndigheter i programländerna, med c:a 30 deltagare vardera till 2 besök. Deltagande finansierades inom Sveriges strategi för Innovation, Partnerskap och Kapacitetsutveckling Common strategic objective: The Swedish Institute's activities shall contribute to the following objectives: Strengthened capacity and competence of actors in the private and public sectors, academia and civil society in developing countries, to work for innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, including through synergies with trade and industry. GOAL 9: The activity promotes sustainable industrialization and fosters innovation. Connecting to SDG9 goal in promoting sustainable and inclusive industrial growth and increasing research, technological capacity, and innovation. Overall, the activity sets out to strengthen the foundations needed for long‑term economic growth, competitiveness, and sustainable development. GOAL 17: In strengthening international partnership this activity sets out to strengthening the global partnerships needed to achieve all the Sustainable Development Goals. The exchange promotes cross-sector collaboration between governments, the private sector, civil society, and international organizations and builds access to technology, innovation, and knowledge‑sharing to promote capacity building effective partnerships. Förädling av skogsråvara, bland annat genom byggande i trä, har potential att främja värdeskapande tillväxt och minskat klimatavtryck i framtidens hållbara städer. Ökad hållbarhet i skogs- och byggvärdekedjor påverkar således ett lands konkurrenskraft och produktivitet. Besöksprogrammet Woodlife Business genomförs Sveriges strategi för Innovation Partnerskap och Kapacitetsutveckling som bland annat betonar mål relaterade till ekonomisk utveckling, utbildning, handel och grön omställning i världen. Programmet 2025 riktade sig särskilt till aktörer verksamma inom skogsvärdekedjan och byggsektorn och som sammantaget kan bidra till att stärka grogrund, tillväxt och genomslag för hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä. Programmet är utformat för att stärka förutsättningarna för att målgruppen når framgång i sitt arbete med att främja hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, något som i sin tur kan bidra till jobbskapande, handel och grön omställning. Genom utbildning, kapacitetsstärkande aktiviteter och ett nationellt nätverk skapas vidare förutsättningar för lokala partnerskap, vilket i sin tur hjälper deltagarna att samverka efter programmet och tillsammans öka sin positiva samhällspåverkan. Genom programmet stärks deltagarnas kunskap, inspiration och nätverk inom hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, vilket syftar till att främja utvecklingen av hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä i programländerna. Genom hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, kan vidare nya arbetstillfällen och hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt. Sweden Swedish Institute Swedish Institute +46 8 453 78 00 si@si.se www.si.se Slottsbacken 10, Box 7434. 103 91 Stockholm Thailand Industrial development Industry Enkätresultat visar att satsningens kortsiktiga mål att stärka kunskap, inspiration och nätverk bland deltagarna uppnåtts. För påståendet "The experience has offered me new knowledge", visar resultaten att en majoritet av deltagarna i både Turkiet (87%) och Thailand (100%) håller med om att de har fått ny kunskap. Andelen som Starkt håller med varierar mellan Turkiet 56,6% och Thailand 94,7% vilket medför slutledningen delegationen från Thailand upplevt den allra största behållningen, vad gäller ny kunskap. När det gäller påståendet "The experience has offered me inspiration to drive change and sustainable development", är siffrorna ännu starkare. En överväldigande majoritet av deltagarna i Turkiet (91,3%) och Thailand (100%) uttrycker enighet, med en mycket stor andel som Starkt håller med (Turkiet 69,6%, Thailand 94,7 %). Detta tyder på att upplevelsen inte bara har varit informativ utan också inspirerande, vilket antas ha en långsiktigt positiv effekt på deltagarnas engagemang och bidrag till lokal hållbar utveckling. Slutligen, beträffande påståendet ”The experience has offered me new network and relations to peer participants that will benefit my work” (/…”to Swedish organisations that will benefit my work), visar resultaten att deltagarna känner att de har etablerat värdeskapande relationer både med övriga programdeltagare och med svenska organisationer. För påståendet om ett positivt värde av nätverk med övriga programdeltagare från hemlandet, är enigheten hög i både Turkiet och Thailand med en stor andel som håller med i både Turkiet (73,9%, varav 47,8% Starkt håller med) och Thailand (100%, varav 89,5% Starkt håller med). Även för påståendet om ett positivt värde av nätverk med deltagande svenska företag och organisationen är enigheten hög i både Turkiet (77,6%) och Thailand (100%) med en stor andel som Starkt håller med (Turkiet 43,5% resp Thailand 78,9%). Sammantaget visar siffrorna upplevelsen har varit framgångsrik i att främja ett upplevt värdefullt nätverksbyggande, vilket är avgörande för självbärande relationer också efter programavslut. En trend av hög optimism fortsätter genom slutliga frågor, såsom en uppskattning av sannolikhet för affärer med svenska företag som ett utfall av programmet, där 69,6% av deltagarna från Turkiet, och 68,4% av deltagarna från Thailand svarar “JA”. The activities were carried out by the Swedish Institute with the support of the Swedish Forestry Agency, as well as in collaboration with Swedish organizations and companies with expertise and experience in themes linked to the programme thematic. Participants for the programmes were recruited with the support from Swedish foreign missions abroad in the programme countries, with about a group of around 30 participants for each of the 2 delegation visits (one per country). Delegation visits for Türkiye were carried out in April with activities in Stockholm and Skellefteå, for Thailand with activities in Stockholm and Växjö in November. Activities during the week focused on study visits and practical exchanges with Swedish actors along the entire forest value chain, from forestry and processing of raw materials to the end product in the form of completed buildings in wood. What effects have we observed so far of the activities within the strategy ? Survey results for the Woodlife Business visitor programme show thatthe short-term and performance-related goals of strengthening knowledge, inspiration and networks among the participants have been achieved. An analysis of the survey results shows an overall positive result from the participants in both Türkiye and Thailand in terms of their evaluation of the programme's contribution of knowledge, inspiration and networks. For the statement "The experience has offered me new knowledge", the results show that most of the participants in both Türkiye (87%) and Thailand (100%) agree that they have gained new knowledge through their participation. The proportion that strongly agrees with varies between Türkiye 56.6% and Thailand 94.7%, which means that the delegation from Thailand has experienced the greatest benefit, in terms of new knowledge. As for the statement "The experience has offered me inspiration to drive change and sustainable development", the numbers are even stronger. An overwhelming majority of respondents in Türkiye (91.3%) and Thailand (100%) express agreement, with a very large proportion strongly agreeing (Türkiye 69.6%, Thailand 94.7%). This suggests that the experience has been not only informative but also inspiring, which is assumed to have a long-term positive effect on participants' engagement and contribution to local sustainable development. Finally, regarding the statement "The experience has offered me new network and relations to peer participants that will benefit my work" (/..."to Swedish organisations that will benefit my work), the results show that the participants feel that they have established value-creating relationships both with other programme participants and with Swedish organisations. For the claim of a positive value of networking with other program participants from the home country, the consensus is high in both Türkiye and Thailand with a large proportion agreeing in both Türkiye (73.9%, of which 47.8% strongly agree) and Thailand (100%, of which 89.5% strongly agree) Also for the claim of a positive value of networks with participating Swedish companies and the organization, the consensus is high in both Türkiye (77.6%) and Thailand (100%) with a large proportion strongly agreeing (Türkiye 43.5% and Thailand 78.9%). Overall, the figures show the experience has been successful in promoting a perceived valuable networking, which is crucial for self-sustaining relationships even after the end of the program. A trend of high optimism continues through final questions, such as an estimate of the likelihood of doing business with Swedish companies as an outcome of the program, where 69.6% of participants from Türkiye, and 68.4% of participants from Thailand answer "YES". Changes from the previous year and Long-term effects The short-term and performance-related results of programme activities for 2025 show no major differences with the previous year during the strategy period. In the spring of 2027, the program's first 1-year follow-up will be carried out, with participants from the 2024 program round. Impacts, such as new self-sustaining partnerships and collaborations, developed as a result of the programme need to be determined. The follow-up also provides an opportunity to investigate whether expected results have been achieved and also to take into account unexpected results and any undesirable results, including results further out in the impact chain. After the first 1-year follow-up has been studied, lessons learned will be compiled how the activities have contributed to strengthening knowledge, inspiration and networks that promote local fertile ground, growth and impact for entrepreneurship, as part of contributing to sustainable development and synergies with trade and business, in the form of new jobs and to new solutions that promote sustainable economic growth. Lessons learned Similar activities will not be carried out in 2026. Is there any central lesson about the target groups, which affects how SI will work in the future? A 1-year follow-up is planned, which will form the basis for decisions on a possible further development of SI's implementation of visit programs funded within the Strategy for Innovation, Partnership and Capacity Development 2024-2028. No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-24-WOODLIFE-5027-THAILAND-1 Sweden The Swedish Institute (SI) funds visitor programmes as part of our work within the Swedish development cooperation strategy Strategy for Innovation, Partnership and Capacity Development 2024-2028. These programmes sets out to promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation, thereby connecting to SDG9 goal in promoting sustainable and inclusive industrial growth and increasing research, technological capacity, and innovation. The programme also sets out to promote cross-sector collaboration between governments, the private sector, civil society, and international organizations, thereby building access to technology, innovation, and knowledge‑sharing to promote capacity building effective partnerships. In 2025, visitors programme activity took a starting point in the thematic of sustainable forestry and wood construction, industry sectors in which Sweden both has a strong heritage as well as strong modern day innovation capabilities. Based on this thematic the visitors programme Woodlife Business was developed, connecting key actors across local forestry and construction value in two programme countries, Türkiye and Thailand. The fact that Thailand and Türkiye were selected has an explanation: the embassies in those countries have turned to the SI and requested support in implementing a visitor program. Both embassies have been working with the Woodlife Sweden exhibition for several years, and in connection with the exhibition being shown, they have – particularly the embassy in Nairobi – promoted the issue of transitioning to timber construction through receptions, breakfast seminars, and other types of events. The networks of stakeholders in Thailand and Türkiye that have been established through this work are now the focus of a visitor program organized by SI, partly to enable them to learn from and be inspired by Swedish experiences, and partly to explore whether there are concrete collaboration opportunities between Swedish and Thai, as well as Turkish, actors. The aim of the visitor programmes is to strengthen the participants' capacity and skills to nurture the growth and impact sustainable forestry and construction in wood in the local context as a way to reduce local climate footprint and promote the development of sustainable cities of the future. In doing so, the programme aims to contribute to long-term sustainable development and synergies with trade and business, in the form of new jobs and new solutions that promote sustainable development and economic growth.

Besöksprogram genomförs av Svenska Institutet med stöd av upphandlade programkonsulter, samt i samverkan med svenska organisationer och företag med expertis och erfarenhet inom tematiker knutna till svenska styrkeområden. År 2025 utgick verksamheten inom besöksprogrammet från temat hållbart skogsbruk och träbyggande – industrisektorer där Sverige både har ett starkt arv och en hög innovationsförmåga i nutid. Utifrån detta tema utvecklades besöksprogrammet Woodlife Business, som knyter samman centrala aktörer inom de lokala värdekedjorna för skogsbruk och byggnation i två programländer: Türkiye och Thailand. Att det blev just Thailand och Turkiet har sin förklaring i att de ambassaderna har vänt sig till SI och efterfrågat stöd i genomförandet av ett besöksprogram. Båda ambassaden har arbetat med utställningen Woodlife Sweden sedan flera år tillbaka och i samband med att utställningen har visats har de, i synnerhet ambassaden i Nairboi, drivit frågan omställning till träbyggande i samband med mottagningar, frukostseminarier och andra typer av evenemang. Det nätverk av aktörer i Thailand respektive Turkiet som då har etablerats i båda länderna har SI ordnat ett besöksprogram för, dels för att lära sig/inspireras av svenska erfarenheter dels för att undersöka om det finns konkreta samarbetsmöjligheter för svenska och thailändska respektive turkiska aktörer. 2025 utgick besöksprogram från det svenska styrkeområdet hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, med erbjudande som riktade sig till nyckelpersoner verksamma inom lokala skogsvärdekedjor i programländerna.

För påståendet "The experience has offered me new knowledge", visar resultaten att en majoritet av deltagarna i både Turkiet (87%) och Thailand (100%) håller med om att de har fått ny kunskap. Andelen som Starkt håller med varierar mellan Turkiet 56,6% och Thailand 94,7% vilket medför slutledningen delegationen från Thailand upplevt den allra största behållningen, vad gäller ny kunskap. När det gäller påståendet "The experience has offered me inspiration to drive change and sustainable development", är siffrorna ännu starkare. En överväldigande majoritet av deltagarna i Turkiet (91,3%) och Thailand (100%) uttrycker enighet, med en mycket stor andel som Starkt håller med (Turkiet 69,6%, Thailand 94,7 %). Detta tyder på att upplevelsen inte bara har varit informativ utan också inspirerande, vilket antas ha en långsiktigt positiv effekt på deltagarnas engagemang och bidrag till lokal hållbar utveckling. Slutligen, beträffande påståendet ”The experience has offered me new network and relations to peer participants that will benefit my work” (/…”to Swedish organisations that will benefit my work), visar resultaten att deltagarna känner att de har etablerat värdeskapande relationer både med övriga programdeltagare och med svenska organisationer. För påståendet om ett positivt värde av nätverk med övriga programdeltagare från hemlandet, är enigheten hög i både Turkiet och Thailand med en stor andel som håller med i både Turkiet (73,9%, varav 47,8% Starkt håller med) och Thailand (100%, varav 89,5% Starkt håller med).

Ökad hållbarhet i skogs- och byggvärdekedjor påverkar således ett lands konkurrenskraft och produktivitet. Besöksprogrammet Woodlife Business genomförs Sveriges strategi för Innovation Partnerskap och Kapacitetsutveckling som bland annat betonar mål relaterade till ekonomisk utveckling, utbildning, handel och grön omställning i världen. Programmet 2025 riktade sig särskilt till aktörer verksamma inom skogsvärdekedjan och byggsektorn och som sammantaget kan bidra till att stärka grogrund, tillväxt och genomslag för hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä. Programmet är utformat för att stärka förutsättningarna för att målgruppen når framgång i sitt arbete med att främja hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, något som i sin tur kan bidra till jobbskapande, handel och grön omställning. Genom utbildning, kapacitetsstärkande aktiviteter och ett nationellt nätverk skapas vidare förutsättningar för lokala partnerskap, vilket i sin tur hjälper deltagarna att samverka efter programmet och tillsammans öka sin positiva samhällspåverkan. Genom programmet stärks deltagarnas kunskap, inspiration och nätverk inom hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, vilket syftar till att främja utvecklingen av hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä i programländerna. Genom hållbart skogsbruk och byggande i trä, kan vidare nya arbetstillfällen och hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt.

Their unparalleled ability to take-off at a moment’s notice, make rapid but highly-controlled turns or home in on small prey or territorial interlopers has ensured their continued mastery over the aerial habitat. To carry out rapid modulations of their wing kinematics, often at frequencies of a few hundred beats per second, insect nervous systems need rapid sensory updates of their flight trajectory. This information is acquired by various sensors distributed over their body including vision, and mechanosensation. Through this collaborative effort, we hope to extend previous studies on the role of individual sensory modalities in flight behavior to now include multiple sensory modalities. The Indian collaborator, Sanjay Sane, has previously studied physics and the mechanosensory control of insect flight, and the Swedish collaborator, Marie Dacke, has worked on the visual modality with special focus on behavioral and physiological aspects of low-light level responses in insects and spiders. Through close exchanges between each laboratory, we aim to combine our expertise in vision and mechanosensation to address how insect brains combine and process information from diverse sensory modalities to generate their spectacular flight repertoire. The secrets of the aerial acrobats The aerobatic maneuvers of insects have long fascinated scientists and engineers alike. The unparalleled ability of the insects to take-off at a moment’s notice, make rapid but highly controlled turns or home in on small prey naturally requires rapid modulations of flight. For this, insect nervous systems require equally rapid sensory updates of their flight trajectory. Various sensors distributed over their body provide the nervous system with this information. One challenge that the insects faces involves integrating and processing the sensory feedback from various modalities as it arrives at the brain with varying time delays. For instance, mechanosensory information is usually transduced rapidly, whereas visual information is slower. Thus, although the input from mechanosensory modalities is available to the insect well in advance of the next wing stroke, the simultaneous visual input may not be available until a few strokes later. How does an insect process two or more sensory inputs with different latencies during flight? How do these latencies influence the time it takes for an insect to respond to each stimulus? These are only two of many questions that we seek to answer within this project. Through an international collaborative effort, we hope to extend our work on the role of individual sensory modalities in flight behavior to now include multiple sensory modalities. The Indian collaborator, Sanjay Sane, has previously studied physics and the mechanosensory control of insect flight, and the Swedish collaborator, Marie Dacke, has worked on the visual modality with special focus on behavioral and physiological aspects of low-light level responses in insects and spiders. Through close interactions between each laboratory, we aim to combine our expertise in vision and mechanosensation to jointly address how insect brains combine and process information from diverse sensory modalities to generate their spectacular flight repertoire. We will focus on maneuvers such as take-offs, sharp turns and landing behaviors that require rapid input. These maneuvers challenge the nervous system to work within the limitations of their sensory latencies. The main tool to record their behaviour will be high-speed videography. Using this set-up, we can recording the flying insects at temporal resolutions below a tenth of a millisecond, sufficient to observe how their kinematics vary from one wing stroke to another. From these recordings we can quantify and characterize how varying visual and mechanosensory feedback influences the different flight behaviors. For example, our previous data suggests that bees crash into a transparent wall placed in their path under bright light conditions, but are able to land on the wall under very dim light. Do insects change their flight strategy based on the feedback it can process better? Because our high speed video cameras are infra-red sensitive, we can film the insects flying also under low visible light. Our approach to the sensory control of flight is novel because we will also compare each behavior across different insect orders. This will help us to understand how insects with vastly different sensory and aerodynamic properties coordinate the complex behaviors necessary for flight, and uncover generalities in their behavioral strategies. From a flight dynamics perspective, the insects we will study encompass diverse qualitative traits. Flies are highly agile flyers capable of sharp, rapid turns in minimal space whereas bumblebees are relatively slower, but can execute controlled landing on swaying flowers. Butterfly flight is erratic, but they can navigate past obstacles and feed from various flowers. Beetle wings are covered by the hard and protective forewing, whose role in flight control remains unstudied. From a visual perspective, our study animals above also include nocturnal and diurnal species with widely varying eye morphology.

Through this collaborative effort, we hope to extend previous studies on the role of individual sensory modalities in flight behavior to now include multiple sensory modalities. The Indian collaborator, Sanjay Sane, has previously studied physics and the mechanosensory control of insect flight, and the Swedish collaborator, Marie Dacke, has worked on the visual modality with special focus on behavioral and physiological aspects of low-light level responses in insects and spiders. Through close exchanges between each laboratory, we aim to combine our expertise in vision and mechanosensation to address how insect brains combine and process information from diverse sensory modalities to generate their spectacular flight repertoire. The secrets of the aerial acrobats The aerobatic maneuvers of insects have long fascinated scientists and engineers alike. The unparalleled ability of the insects to take-off at a moment’s notice, make rapid but highly controlled turns or home in on small prey naturally requires rapid modulations of flight. For this, insect nervous systems require equally rapid sensory updates of their flight trajectory. Various sensors distributed over their body provide the nervous system with this information. One challenge that the insects faces involves integrating and processing the sensory feedback from various modalities as it arrives at the brain with varying time delays. For instance, mechanosensory information is usually transduced rapidly, whereas visual information is slower. Thus, although the input from mechanosensory modalities is available to the insect well in advance of the next wing stroke, the simultaneous visual input may not be available until a few strokes later. How does an insect process two or more sensory inputs with different latencies during flight? How do these latencies influence the time it takes for an insect to respond to each stimulus? These are only two of many questions that we seek to answer within this project. Through an international collaborative effort, we hope to extend our work on the role of individual sensory modalities in flight behavior to now include multiple sensory modalities. The Indian collaborator, Sanjay Sane, has previously studied physics and the mechanosensory control of insect flight, and the Swedish collaborator, Marie Dacke, has worked on the visual modality with special focus on behavioral and physiological aspects of low-light level responses in insects and spiders. Through close interactions between each laboratory, we aim to combine our expertise in vision and mechanosensation to jointly address how insect brains combine and process information from diverse sensory modalities to generate their spectacular flight repertoire. We will focus on maneuvers such as take-offs, sharp turns and landing behaviors that require rapid input. These maneuvers challenge the nervous system to work within the limitations of their sensory latencies. The main tool to record their behaviour will be high-speed videography. Using this set-up, we can recording the flying insects at temporal resolutions below a tenth of a millisecond, sufficient to observe how their kinematics vary from one wing stroke to another. From these recordings we can quantify and characterize how varying visual and mechanosensory feedback influences the different flight behaviors. For example, our previous data suggests that bees crash into a transparent wall placed in their path under bright light conditions, but are able to land on the wall under very dim light. Do insects change their flight strategy based on the feedback it can process better? Because our high speed video cameras are infra-red sensitive, we can film the insects flying also under low visible light. Our approach to the sensory control of flight is novel because we will also compare each behavior across different insect orders. This will help us to understand how insects with vastly different sensory and aerodynamic properties coordinate the complex behaviors necessary for flight, and uncover generalities in their behavioral strategies. From a flight dynamics perspective, the insects we will study encompass diverse qualitative traits. Flies are highly agile flyers capable of sharp, rapid turns in minimal space whereas bumblebees are relatively slower, but can execute controlled landing on swaying flowers. Butterfly flight is erratic, but they can navigate past obstacles and feed from various flowers. Beetle wings are covered by the hard and protective forewing, whose role in flight control remains unstudied. From a visual perspective, our study animals above also include nocturnal and diurnal species with widely varying eye morphology.

For other products, e.g. HVAC and generator sets, the produced noise has to be measured in several spots after installation to conform to the limits set by the customer regulations. This project deals with the reduction of noise from the source when acoustic waves propagate inside ducts. For 1D analysis of duct systems it is usually assumed that only plane waves can propagate, which limits the frequency range of the simulation. This technique is valid for several applications such as automotive mufflers. In some applications, such as HVAC or muffler systems for large diesel engines in ships or generator sets, the duct dimensions are large compared to the frequency of interest. Therefore, the simple methods fail and it is important in this case to use some other complicated techniques such as Finite (FEM) or Boundary Element Methods (BEM) which are time consuming and require experience to build the model. The main objective of this project is to investigate the use of simple analytical methods even in the high frequency region. The new model will be validated against FEM calculations and measurements. The measurements will be conducted by the Egyptian team at Ain Shams University (ASU). ASU will derive and code the new simplified technique whereas KTH will perform the validation with FEM. Protection of the environment is a concern of global interest. It is universally acknowledged that the steady rise in all kinds of pollution cannot be allowed to continue indefinitely. The acoustical environment has likewise suffered from the increase in use and power of machines in the workplace, increasing road traffic, larger aircraft, etc. High intensities of noise have been associated with numerous harmful health effects including noise-induced hearing loss and other nervous system diseases. In 1970, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) set limits on the levels of noise to which workers may be exposed in their work environments. Many countries and communities have followed suit making it a legal requirement to measure community noise level, to reduce noise at the source, and to maintain acceptable noise levels in factories. Furthermore, noise has become a major factor influencing the marketability and competitiveness of industrial products such as cars, machinery, office equipment, and buildings. In many applications, the amount of sound power produced by a product is indicated by a label giving the customer additional information to help decide which product to choose. Several products, e.g. cars, trucks and heavy equipment, need to pass a certain noise certification in order to be admitted to certain markets. For other products (HVAC and generator sets), the produced noise has to be measured in several spots after installation to conform to limits set by customer regulations. Accordingly, manufacturers and researchers have become increasingly concerned with better ways to attenuate or reduce noise. Traditionally, noise control engineers have identified noise problems experimentally and have solved them in a trial and error manner. However, the automotive, heavy equipment, and HVAC industries are now gravitating towards the use of numerical noise prediction early in the design phase. If computer models can adequately model the physics of the real problem, design changes can be anticipated before a prototype is even fabricated, reducing product delivery time and engineering effort. In IC-engine exhaust and inlet systems and HVAC systems, acoustic waves propagate inside ducts. At lower frequencies, the duct cross-sectional dimensions are small compared to the acoustic wavelength. Accordingly, it can be assumed that plane waves propagate inside the duct system simplifying the analysis. Several university codes have been developed to predict sound attenuation in complex duct networks assuming plane wave propagation. Examples of 1D codes include Davies, LAMPS, SID and SIDLAB. SIDLAB is the 1D software which has been developed by the Egyptian and Swedish research teams. It is based on two-port theory and has benefited from their previous research, teaching and consulting experience. However, SIDLAB and other 1D codes are limited. In some applications, such as HVAC or muffler systems for large diesel engines in ships or generator sets, the duct dimensions are large compared to the frequency of interest. The plane wave assumption is no longer applicable and more complicated techniques like finite and boundary element methods are used. However, both methods are CPU intensive requiring considerable effort to build the model.

A PAT system will be optimised and algorithms developed to allow real-time analysis. To detect precise localisation of fungal infection in food products, 3-D NIR hyperspectral images will be constructed by combining an array of tomographic NIR images.

Development of rapid and real-time imaging methods for safety and quality measurements of food products. Near infrared (NIR) hyperspectral imaging integrates conventional digital imaging and NIR spectroscopy to attain information in two directions (both spatial and spectral) from an object or sample. This allows to tell not only how much of a compound might be present but also where it might be located within the sample. During this project NIR hyperspectral imaging will be used to detect faults in grains before it becomes visible to the human eye. Using pre-germinated barley during malting costs the South African brewing industry millions of Rands each year due to loss in quality. Being able to detect these pre-germinated grains early on will be of great advantage to the industry. Similary methods will be developed to detect spices that has been adulterated by adding cheaper ingredients such as milled bran to ground mixed spices. This will protect the consumer. Mathematical models will be developed that would allow the use of NIR hyperspectral imaging in industry. To be able to use this technique on-line, real-time methods will also be developed for these two applications. The mathematical models needed to be developed for this will allow fast measurement and calculation of results. These analysis are, however, only in two dimensions. To allow evaluations to be made three dimensionally, thin slices of grain samples, infected with a fungus, will be imaged and the images obtained put together mathematically to form a 3-D image. This would allow precise localisation of infection within a 3-D sample. This will allow information being obtained not possible with any other analytical method as well as the detection of precise localisation of infection within grain. To be able to execute these research projects effectively skills and expertise on imaging, chemometrics, food science and microbiology respectively available at SLU, Sweden and SU, South Africa are needed. All these expertise needed to be applied simultaneously to effectively interpret the results. At the same time knowledge will be transferred between the two countries to the benefit of both. Food safety and security is becoming increasingly important. This cutting-edge technique might not be suitable for immediate implementation in industry. However, it needs to be evaluated and methods developed as in future it will become an economical method for rapidly analysing food and agricultural products to ensure a safe, quality product for the consumer.

Furthermore, to study outcome of post abortion contraceptive counselling by MLPs as well as decision-making related to induced abortion. One RCT (880 women), one follow-up interview study (400 women), and one qualitative study (10-20 women and partners) are planned. Women seeking treatment for incomplete spontaneous or induced abortion at Nyanza Provincial Hospital in Kisumu are included. The main outcome for the RCT is complete abortion and for the follow-up study it is adherence to the chosen contraceptive method. Kenya has high fertility, 4.6 children per women, contraceptive use is low, unwanted pregnancy is common, and induced abortion is strongly restricted. Deaths from unsafe abortion are common. A problem related to post-abortion care is lack of physicians. Strategic use of MLPs could mitigate human resource problems in emergency obstetric and gynaecological care. Manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) and misoprostol has been suggested as effective tools in the treatment of incomplete abortions. The safety and effectiveness of MLPs conducting MVA and administering misoprostol has not been tested. The long-term goal of this project is to provide evidence based information for policy development regarding post abortion care including effective countraceptive counselling to reduce maternal mortality Bakgrund: Ca 20 miljoner illegala aborter utförs i världen varje år. Följderna av dessa ofta osäkra aborter dödar årligen ca 70 000-100 000 kvinnor och blir därmed en av de vanligaste dödsorsakerna bland kvinnor i fertil ålder. För att minska dödligheten och sjukligheten i relation till oönskade graviditeter finns rekommendationer att utbilda så kallade Mid Level Providers (MLP). Exempel på MLP är barnmorskor och sjuksköterskor. Med deras hjälp vill man öka tillgängligheten till och kvaliteten på abortvården. Det vill säga behandling av ofullständig abort och komplikationer uppkomna efter illegal abort men även efter missfall. Globalt sett finns det många fler barnmorskor och sjuksköterskor än läkare. MLP:s styrka är att de, förutom antalet, är mer lättillgängliga för kvinnorna, jämfört med tillgängligheten till läkare. Tidigare internationella studier visar att MLP kan utföra säker kirurgisk abort vid tidig graviditet och även ge behandling vid ofullständig abort, vilket är en vanlig komplikation vid både missfall och illegal abort. Internationellt används misoprostol (abortpiller) vid medicinsk abort och behandling av ofullständig abort vilket i studier har visat sig vara en billig, skonsam och effektiv metod. Att även involvera MLP:s vid användning av misoprostol skulle öka kvinnors tillgänglighet till säker behandling av ofullständig abort. Inga tidigare studier har jämfört utfallet om MLP eller läkare utför behandling vid ofullständig abort. Som ett led i att minska abortrelaterad dödlighet och sjuklighet bland kvinnor världen över är dessutom tillgång till preventivmedel och preventivmedelsrådgivning centralt. Även här kan MLP, med rätt utbildning, ta ett större ansvar. Projektet kommer att genomföras i Kisumu i västra Kenya där preventivmedelsanvändningen är låg och antalet oönskade graviditeter med åtföljande osäkra aborter är högt. Det finns en stor medvetenhet bland Kenyanska forskare och politiker om de hälsofrågor som studeras i projektet. Framkallad abort är i princip otillåten i Kenya men lokala forskare och policy makers har deltagit i utvecklingen av projektet och bedöms av dessa som helt genomförbart, i linje med Kenyas policy och dessutom nödvändigt för att hitta metoder för att minska den höga mödradödligheten i landet. Syfte och metod: För att utvärdera effektivitet och säkerhet av att MLP genomför kirurgisk abort alternativt administrerar misoprostol som behandling vid ofullständig abort jämfört med läkare, planeras en randomiserad kontrollerad studie (patienterna fördelas slumpmässigt mellan vårdgivarna) (Studie I). För att analysera preventivmedelsanvändning bland kvinnor som erhållit preventivmedelsrådgivning av MLP efter genomförd behandling i studie 1 kommer uppföljning att ske vid återbesök efter 3 samt 6 månader (Studie II). Vidare kommer kvalitativa intervjuer att genomföras för att ge en djupare förståelse för kvinnor och deras partners beslutsfattande i relation till abort (Studie III). Genomförande: Kvinnor som söker vård för ofullständig abort på Kisumu Provincial hospital, lottas till att bli behandlade av MLP eller läkare. Utfallen som analyseras är fullständig abort utan komplikation (studie I) samt val av preventivmedelsmetod och användning av den valda metoden (Studie II). I studie I identifieras unga kvinnor, som medger att de försökt genomföra en abort, samt deras partner för att medverka i individuella intervjuer (Studie III).

Resultatet av studierna kan komma att bidra till minskad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet dels genom att förebygga oönskade graviditeter och därmed skador och komplikationer av osäkert utförda aborter dels genom utveckling av bättre tillgång till säker vård efter abort.

We also aim at gaining knowledge on how T cell lymphopenia occurring during HIV-1 infection contributes to alter the homeostasis and survival of sub-populations of B cells and plasma cells (PCs), devoted to maintain long-lived antibody memory. This new knowledge may contribute to the development of novel immune-based therapies aimed at correcting aspects of immunopathology during HIV-1 infection and to the design of HIV-1 vaccines. The specific aims of the project in the frame of HIV-1 infection are to study: 1)Development and maintenance of Ab responses to childhood vaccinations in HIV-1 infected children 2) Molecular mechanisms for development of specific antibodies upon vaccination 3) Modulation of B cell responses in HIV-1 infected patients treated with CCR5 inhibitors 4) Evolution of antibody (Ab) specificity 5) Impact of CD4+ T cell depletion to homeostasis of survival niches for PCs. 6) Evolution of the B cell compartment in SIV infected macaques 7) Molecular pathways relevant for differentiation of memory B cells to PCs. Our studies may have an important impact on the global effort for the design of HIV-1 vaccines by contributing with new knowledge in the field of B cell immunology and responses. Det övergripande målet för detta projekt är att förstå de mekanismer som leder till förlusten av antikroppssvar vid HIV infektion. HIV mediciner dämpar förökningen av viruset men inte de immunologiska störningarna hos patienten. Det är därför oerhört viktigt att få fram nya mediciner som kan rätta till och begränsa de immunologiska skadorna på celler i immunförsvaret. För att kunna få fram sådana immunstärkande mediciner behövs mer kunskap. Mitt nuvarande project kan bidra till utvecklingen av nya immunbaserade terapier samt bidra till framställningen av ett fungerande HIV vaccin. Den specifika delen av projektet är: 1) Det finns delade kunskaper om huruvida HIV-1 infekterade barn svarar på barnvaccinationer men många olika studier pekar mot att just denna grupp av barn inte svarar tillräckligt bra mot dessa vaccinationer. Med detta projekt hoppas vi kunna förmedla viktig kunskap om mekanismer som motverkar bildandet av ett långvarigt antikroppssvar vid vaccinering av HIV-1 infekterade barn. Studien görs i samarbete med ALERT/AHRI sjukhus i Addis Ababa, Etiopien. Särskilda mål är att studera utvecklingen och bevarande av serologiska minne vid vaccinering av HIV-1 infekterade barn med MPR (mässling, påssjuka och röda hund) vaccin och granska om antikroppssvaret mot dessa vaccin består över tiden. Det har nyligen rapporterats att mässling sprider sig igen i en del länder i Afrika (samt Europa). Om vi, med dessa studier, kan fastställa att HIV-1 infekterade barn inte bildar antikroppar mot barnvacciner måste vaccinationsstrategierna ändras för att säkerställa immunsvaret i denna grupp av immunosupprimerade barn. 2) Bildandet av antikroppar styrs av komplexa molekylära mekanismer. Tidigare studier där vi tittat på vaccinering av HIV-infekterade personer har visat att patienter som inte svarar bra på vaccinering har lägre nivåer av ett protein som reglerar bildandet av antikroppar med hög affinitet. I denna studie vill vi försöka förstå de molekulära aspekterna som styr bildningen av antikroppar hos HIV infekterade patienter. 3) Vi kommer bli delaktiga i studier där man vill utforska vad som händer när man blockerar HIV virusets bindning till sin co-receptor CCR5. Man vet inte vilken roll CCR5 har vid bildandet av minnesantikroppar under HIV infektion men man har sett att en subgrupp av minnes B celler som bildar antikroppar mot HIV även uttryckar höga nivåer av CCR5. Denna kliniska studie med CCR5-hämmare kommer göra det möjligt att studera om CCR5 har någon viktig roll vid bildningen av ett långvarigt antikroppssvar mot HIV och andra vaccinationsantigen. 4) Samtidigt som HIV infekterade förlorar antikroppssvar mot vaccinationsantigen, bildar de höga nivåer av IgG. Dessa antikroppar är mest troligt auto-antikroppar vars cellulära specificitet är okänd. Vi vill undersöka specificiteten av IgG i serum hos patienter som utvecklar antikroppar efter primär HIV-1 infektion och följa över tid deras bildning av antikroppar samt definiera deras antigenspecificitet. 5) Plasmaceller producerar långlivade antikroppar mot vaccinationsantigen. Dessa celler finns i benmärgen lokaliserade i specifika överlevnadsnischer. Vi vill studera om förlusten av CD4+ T celler har någon betydelse för homeostasen av plasmacellernas överlevnadsnischer. 6) Vi kommer att studera överlevnadsfaktorer for specifika subpopulationer av B celler som kallas minnesceller och som bär ett långvarigt antikroppssvar; vi kommer i den del av studien att fokusera på receptorer vars roll är att förmedla överlevnad av minnesceller. Resultaten från detta projekt kommer att användas på flera sätt. Vi kommer naturligtvis att löpande informera läkare om resultaten samt diskutera om vaccinationsprotokollen för HIV-1 infekterade barn bör kompletteras med påfyllningar av vaccinering av MPR. Studiens resultat kommer publiceras i peer-reviewed vetenskapliga tidskrifter, att presenteras på konferenser samt i både nationella och internationella vaccinationsriktlinjer.

They are the first such programs for maternal healthcare in the world. All three programs aim to increase institutional delivery among target mothers. They are based on innovative financial incentives for the provision and utilization of care; and the participation of the private sector, yet there are major differences in the provider/mother payment models and incentives, quantums of financial assistance, levels of private sector involvement, socioeconomic contexts in which each program operates, all of which will have a bearing on desired maternal health outcomes. There have been few reports on the evaluation of such programs. Recent scientific literature has recommended robust evaluations to fill in the evidence gap on the impact of such programs. Aim: to evaluate and compare three, strategically different, innovative programs in terms of a) health outcomes (maternal + perinatal), b) influence of incentive structure on outcomes, c) extended benefits of program, d) private sector contribution to outcomes e) financial sustainability. The evaluation of two Indian programs has been funded by EU FP7 recently (Sweden coordinator). This application is being sought to facilitate inclusion of the third such innovative program in South India (Karnataka). Det här programmet föreslår utvärderingar av tre innovativa storskaliga program i Indien, som har inrättats för att minska mödradödligheten. Indien står för 20 procent av den globala mödradödligheten och 26% av befolkning lever under fattigdomsgränsen, och fortsätter att ha en av de högsta mödradödlighetstalen i världen. Således framsteg i Indien (trots långsam hittills) är en förutsättning för att kunna uppnå millenniemål 5 till 2015. Syftet med dessa statliga program är att minska mödradödligheten genom att främja institutionella förlossningar, och genom att minska hinder för att kvinnor ska ha tillgång till mödrahälsovård. Dessa program verkar i tre stora indiska provinser.

They are the first such programs for maternal healthcare in the world. All three programs aim to increase institutional delivery among target mothers. They are based on innovative financial incentives for the provision and utilization of care; and the participation of the private sector, yet there are major differences in the provider/mother payment models and incentives, quantums of financial assistance, levels of private sector involvement, socioeconomic contexts in which each program operates, all of which will have a bearing on desired maternal health outcomes. There have been few reports on the evaluation of such programs. Recent scientific literature has recommended robust evaluations to fill in the evidence gap on the impact of such programs. Aim: to evaluate and compare three, strategically different, innovative programs in terms of a) health outcomes (maternal + perinatal), b) influence of incentive structure on outcomes, c) extended benefits of program, d) private sector contribution to outcomes e) financial sustainability. The evaluation of two Indian programs has been funded by EU FP7 recently (Sweden coordinator). This application is being sought to facilitate inclusion of the third such innovative program in South India (Karnataka). Det här programmet föreslår utvärderingar av tre innovativa storskaliga program i Indien, som har inrättats för att minska mödradödligheten. Indien står för 20 procent av den globala mödradödligheten och 26% av befolkning lever under fattigdomsgränsen, och fortsätter att ha en av de högsta mödradödlighetstalen i världen. Således framsteg i Indien (trots långsam hittills) är en förutsättning för att kunna uppnå millenniemål 5 till 2015. Syftet med dessa statliga program är att minska mödradödligheten genom att främja institutionella förlossningar, och genom att minska hinder för att kvinnor ska ha tillgång till mödrahälsovård. Dessa program verkar i tre stora indiska provinser. Vart och ett av dessa program fungerar med hjälp av olika innovativa ?demand side? finansieringsmekanismer, som särskilt syftar till att förbättra tillgången för utsatta grupper.

If these questions are successfully answered, new therapeutic and preventive strategies can be developed to modulate inflammation and strengthen host defense. The specific aims to achieve this are: (1) Understand how Mtb-infected apoptotic cells are recognized, ingested and handled by macrophages, and how an anti-inflammatory response (TGF-ß,IL-10) is switched to a pro-inflammatory one (TNFa, IL12, NO). (2) Evaluate how these apoptotic cells can induce dendritic cell maturation and enhance antigen cross-presentation.

Närmare en tredjedel av jordens befolkning är smittade och 2 miljoner dör varje år i sjukdomen. Trots vaccination, effektiv antibiotikabehandling och förbättrade socioekonomiska förhållanden, ökar sjukdomen idag. En orsak är urbaniseringen i fr.a. Afrika, en annan är HIV utvecklingen som ökar känsligheten för aktiv tuberkulos. En tredje orsak är den ökade resistensutvecklingen som också sker i industrialiserade länder, fr.a. Östeuropa. Det behövs därför nya effektivare insatser för att förhindra en fortsatt spridning av denna sjukdom. Omfattande forskning sker nu för att utveckla nya effektivare vacciner som i första hand kan komplettera nuvarande BCG vaccination. Men traditionell vaccination räcker inte för att skydda oss mot tuberkulos. Vi har ställt oss frågan varför *bara* 5-10% av alla de som smittas inte blir sjuka, och därför studerat kroppens naturliga (medfödda) immunitet mot denna infektion, och hur den kan förstärkas. När kroppens vita blodkroppar som ansamlas i lungan och där äter upp och avdödar tuberkelbakterier, sker också programmerad celldöd (apoptos). Dessa celler tas upp av lungans makrofager, som nu bildar inflammationsstimulerande och bakterieavdödande ämnen, bl.a. kväveoxid (NO). I det fortsatta arbetet studerar vi hur aktiveringen av makrofager och andra immunceller (dendritiska celler) sker och vilka egenskaper hos tuberkelbakterien som medverkar i denna process. Aktivering av makrofager via apoptotiska celler skulle kunna vara ett effektivt sätt att under det tidiga infektionsförloppet stoppa infektionen. På basen av dessa grundläggande studier, genomför vi kliniska studier i Etiopien, där vi utvecklar strategier för att förstärk immunförsvaret hos patienter med tuberkulos. Vi har tidigare visat att tillskott av aminosyran arginin påskyndar tillfrisknandet hos patienter med TB. Detta beror på an ökad lokal produktion av NO. Aktuella studier visar vidare att samtidig HIV/TB infektion stör bildningen av NO i lungan, vilket ökar känsligheten för infektion. Vi utvecklar nu dessa nutritionsinriktade studier bl.a genom tillskott som stimulerar makrofagfunktionen, och studier av dubbelinfekterade (HIV eller mask) patienter. Genom en kombination av grundläggande infektionsimmunologiska och kliniska studier av tuberkulos, hoppas vi kunna hitta modeller för hur tuberkulossjukdomen kan förebyggas och behandlas.

The hypothesis, based on pilot studies, is that bacteria in water survive and retain expression of certain genes required for survival, transmission and virulence even after long exposure in water.

In this research programme, we will focus to study the induction and regulation of antimicrobial effector pathways in TB infection, also in relation to the mechanisms responsible for the deadly synergy with HIV, which is a key challenge to public health. Bactericidal functions in macrophages (nitric oxide, LL37) and cytolytic T cells (perforin, granulysin) have been shown to be crucial for protective immunity in TB but the relative contribution of these different effectors and the immunoregulatory pathways that control these imperative antimicrobial systems are not known. To explore this, we take advantage of key scientific and technological platforms involving unique clinical study cohorts and quantitative imaging techniques that has been developed by our group, to study immunopathology at the site of microbial infection. Immune responses in patients will be carefully evaluated and related to clinical disease severity. Integration of patient materials with comprehensive cell and tissue models in vitro will be used to perform mechanistic studies and confirm our clinical findings in human TB and TB/HIV (AIM 1), which will facilitate the discovery of novel targets for vaccine development (AIM 2), diagnosis (AIM 3) or disease treatment (AIM 4). Our findings will provide important knowledge of how deficient immune responses can be restored to obtain control of chronic TB disease. Tuberkulos (TB) är en bakteriell lungsjukdom med ett starkt globalt fäste och ett utav våra största folkhälsoproblem. Trots att TB är en av världens största infektionssjukdomar vet vi förhållandevis lite om sjukdomen. En tredjedel av världens befolkning beräknas vara infekterad med TB, vilket medför en enorm reservoar för spridning av sjukdom. Den epidemiologiska statistiken visar att miljontals människor drabbas varje år och många dör. Risken för att utveckla TB ökar också betydligt vid en samtidig infektion med HIV. Det enda vaccinet, BCG, är över 80 år gammalt och har en mycket begränsad effektivitet. Det är också svårt att förhindra eller bota TB på medicinsk väg och befintlig behandlig är lång och ofta förknippad med starka biverkningar, vilket kan resultera i en ökning av multidrogresistent TB. Givet dessa fakta, så är det lätt att förstå att behovet av nya vacciner, diagnostiska tester och behandlingsformer är stort. För att kunna förbättra de kliniska verktygen och hjälpa patienterna till ett bättre liv, så måste vi först lära oss om mekanismerna kring uppkomst och utveckling av infektion och sjukdom. Det finns många både värd- och bakteriespecifika parametrar att ta hänsyn till och jag har valt att fokusera min forskning på den del av det humana immunsvaret som leder till direkt avdödning av bakterien i människa. Det inkluderar vita blodkroppar, makrofager och cytolytiska T celler som har unika tuberkulosdödande egenskaper. Dessa celler uttrycker olika effektor molekyler till exempel cellulärt kväveoxid men och antimikrobiella peptider (kroppens eget antibiotikum) som kan döda bakterier genom att förstöra deras membran. Förutom att döda mikroorganismer kan dessa peptider aktivera vårt immunsystem på flera sätt. Vi har resultat som visar att vita blodkroppars aktivitet och produktion av antimikrobiella proteiner är avsevärt lägre vid infektionsstället hos TB-sjuka individer. Min forskning går ut på att försöka förstå när, var och hur antimikrobiella effektor molekyler induceras i mikromiljön vid infektionsstället hos TB patienter samt utforska vilka specifika signalvägar som reglerar uttrycket av effektorerna. Jag vill också studera hur det antimikrobiella svaret vid kronisk TB påverkas av HIV infektion. Min forskargrupp använder unika metoder för att studera immunsvaret lokalt i mänskliga vävnader, där antalet reaktiva immunceller är högt. Med mikroskopi och bildanalys jämförs immunsvaret i tex. lunga eller lymfknuta med det systemiska svaret i blodet. Resultaten från sjuka individer relateras till svårighetsgraden av sjukdom, men också till relevanta kontroller. Vi kommer att studera uttryck och funktion av olika celler, signalvägar och lösliga signalsubstanser sk. cytokiner, och hur de påverkar det antimikrobiella systemets förmåga att avdöda eller kontrollera bakterieväxt i infekteras vävnad. Intressanta fynd från patienter kommer att undersökas i en ny lungvävnadsmodell som är konstruerad att imitera den fysiologiska funktionen hos den mänskliga lungan. Här har vi den unika möjligheten att studera hur organ-specifika celltyper påverkar TB infektion och det immunsvar som uppkommer, men vi kan även manipulera de immunregulatoriska signalvägarna, för att studera hur uttrycket av de antimikrobiella effektor proteinerna påverkas. Resultaten från vår forskning på patient material och lungvävnadsmodellen kommer att användas för att identifiera nya biomarkörer för immunkorrelat samt sjukdom. Dessa applicerar vi i kliniken för att utvärdera nya TB vaccin kandidater men också för att testa och utveckla ett nytt diagnostiskt test för aktiv TB sjukdom. Den kommersiella diagnostik som används idag kan inte skilja mellan aktiv och latent TB och fungerar ofta betydligt sämre i TB patienter med svår sjukdom tex. immunsuppremerade TB/HIV koinfekterade patienter.

In this research programme, we will focus to study the induction and regulation of antimicrobial effector pathways in TB infection, also in relation to the mechanisms responsible for the deadly synergy with HIV, which is a key challenge to public health. Bactericidal functions in macrophages (nitric oxide, LL37) and cytolytic T cells (perforin, granulysin) have been shown to be crucial for protective immunity in TB but the relative contribution of these different effectors and the immunoregulatory pathways that control these imperative antimicrobial systems are not known. To explore this, we take advantage of key scientific and technological platforms involving unique clinical study cohorts and quantitative imaging techniques that has been developed by our group, to study immunopathology at the site of microbial infection. Immune responses in patients will be carefully evaluated and related to clinical disease severity. Integration of patient materials with comprehensive cell and tissue models in vitro will be used to perform mechanistic studies and confirm our clinical findings in human TB and TB/HIV (AIM 1), which will facilitate the discovery of novel targets for vaccine development (AIM 2), diagnosis (AIM 3) or disease treatment (AIM 4). Our findings will provide important knowledge of how deficient immune responses can be restored to obtain control of chronic TB disease. Tuberkulos (TB) är en bakteriell lungsjukdom med ett starkt globalt fäste och ett utav våra största folkhälsoproblem. Trots att TB är en av världens största infektionssjukdomar vet vi förhållandevis lite om sjukdomen. En tredjedel av världens befolkning beräknas vara infekterad med TB, vilket medför en enorm reservoar för spridning av sjukdom. Den epidemiologiska statistiken visar att miljontals människor drabbas varje år och många dör. Risken för att utveckla TB ökar också betydligt vid en samtidig infektion med HIV. Det enda vaccinet, BCG, är över 80 år gammalt och har en mycket begränsad effektivitet. Det är också svårt att förhindra eller bota TB på medicinsk väg och befintlig behandlig är lång och ofta förknippad med starka biverkningar, vilket kan resultera i en ökning av multidrogresistent TB. Givet dessa fakta, så är det lätt att förstå att behovet av nya vacciner, diagnostiska tester och behandlingsformer är stort. För att kunna förbättra de kliniska verktygen och hjälpa patienterna till ett bättre liv, så måste vi först lära oss om mekanismerna kring uppkomst och utveckling av infektion och sjukdom.

Although both diseases have a strong genetic component, the genes involved have only been identified in a minority of patients (less than 10 %).

På grund av bristen på antikroppar drabbas patienterna av frekventa infektioner och behandlas därför regelmässigt med gammaglobulin och antibiotika. Den genetiska orsaken till sjukdomarna är fortfarande okänd (mindre än 10 % av patienterna har fått en molekylärt baserad diagnos) och avsikten med vårt projekt är att identifiera ytterligare gener som orsakar dessa defekter. Vidare syftar projektet till att försöka förstå den starka koppling som finns mellan IgA brist och autoimmuna sjukdomar som diabetes och glutenintolerans. CVID och IgA brist har tidigare betraktats som obotbara sjukdomar men vi har nyligen funnit ett tiotal patienter som gradvis normaliserat sina immunglobulinnivåer.

The worldwide prevalence of PE ranges from 3 to 15% of pregnancies, affecting a total of 8.5 millions women worldwide. PE is responsible for about 18 % of the maternal and 40% of the fetal mortality. PE still lacks, a safe and effective therapy, as well as a reliable, early means of diagnosis. Results from our recent gene profiling and proteomic studies have independently shown increased production and accumulation of free fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in the placenta. This study aims to decipher the pathophysiological mechanisms of HbF in PE. Specific aims -To evaluate the hemodynamic changes induced by free HbF in animal and ex-vivo placenta models. -To study the micro RNA and protein content of placental derived microparticles in respons to free Hb. -To study the inflammatory response in PE using a new antibody array technology. Significance Deeper understanding of the underlying patho-physiological mechanisms opens up for improvement of new diagnostic tools. Furthermore, the understanding is crucial for development of a new specific, rather than symptomatic, treatment. Today the only curative intervention is to induce delivery. It is estimated that US$30 billion is spent worldwide per year in health care costs to treat women with PE. A new treatment for PE would therefore have a tremendous impact on women?s health worldwide. Bakgrund: Havandeskapsförgiftning-Preeklampsi (PE) drabbar varje år 8 500 000 blivande mödrar i världen varav 5000 i Sverige. Det är den ledande dödsorsaken hos både mödrar och foster under graviditeten. PE har kallats teoriernas sjukdom och beskrevs så tidigt som för 3000 år sedan av de gamla egyptierna. Sjukdomen utvecklas i två steg, det första steget kännetecknas av en defekt bildning av moderkakan-placentan. Under den sk. placentation har en defekt invasion av placentans celler i livmoderslemhinnans spiral artärer påvisats. Detta bidrar till ett minskat blodflöde som leder till oxidativ stress, vävnadsskada och inflammation. Nedsatt blodflöde kan även resultera i att fostret utvecklar en intrauterin tillväxthämning (IUGR). Det andra steget, de kliniska manifestationerna, dvs hypertoni och proteinuri, debuterar som tidigast från och med 20e graviditetsveckan. Vad som länkar steg ett och två är ännu oklart dock är det mycket som talar för en placentär faktor. Trots intensiv forskning är PE ännu idag svårdiagnosticerad och behandling saknas. Det enda som kan göras för att avbryta sjukdomsförloppet är att förlösa modern, ett svårt avvägande där både barnets och moderns välmående måste tas i beaktning. I och med detta svarar PE för 15 % av alla för tidigt födda barn, vart fjärde barn föds dessutom tillväxthämmat. Sammantaget bidrar PE till ökat lidande för både mor och barn. Tidigare resultat: Vi har med hjälp av gen- och proteinanalys identifierat ansamling av fritt foster hemoglobin (HbF) i moderkakor (placentor) vid PE. Våra aktuella resultat visar att HbF skadar placentan varvid läckage till den maternella blodcirculationen uppstår. Nivåeerna av fritt HbF stiger i mammans blod och bidrar till de kärl och njurskador som så småningom leder till de kliniska manifesten. Specifika målsättningar: Detta translationella projekt avser att systematiskt studera effekterna av fritt HbF vid PE; 1. Då fritt Hb är generellt vävnadsskadande, kommer skadeeffekterna av fritt Hb att studeras med nya ex-vivo och djur modeller med speciellt fokus på placenta, njur- och kärlfunktioner. Förutom fysiologiska parametrar som blodtryck, kärlkontraktilitet samt blodflöde, utvärderas även molekylära aspekter med gen- proteinprofilering samt vävnadshistologi. 2. Fritt Hb ger upphov till oxidative stress i placentan vilket leder till specifika cellskador. Cellmembranen tar skada och sk. mikropartiklar bildas som läcker ut i mammans blodcirkulation. Vi avser att studera innehållet i dessa mikropartiklar med avseende på proteiner och micro RNA. 3. När mikropartiklar från placentan når mammans blodcirkulation aktiveras hennes immunförsvar, olika vid PE respektive intrauterine tillväxthämning (IUGR). Vi kommer att studera den inflammatoriska profilen med hjälp av en ny antikroppsarray och korrelera den till innehållet i mikropartiklarna och fritt HbF vid dessa tillstånd. Dopplerultraljudsundersökningar görs på patienterna i tidig graviditet i syfte att mäta blodflödet i placentan. Detta görs i Lund, Stockholm (Life Gene Study) samt på St Georges sjukhuset i London. För att få tillgång till blod och vävnad från kvinnor med mycket allvarlig form av PE, samlas kontinuerligt prover i etablerade samarbete med kliniker i Egypten, Ghana, Kenya och Tanzania. Betydelse: En effektiv prediktiv och diagnostisk markör med hög specificitet och känslighet skulle kunna användas för att identifiera kvinnor med ökad risk att utveckla PE och IUGR. En effektiv screening skulle kunna minska onödigt lidande och stora sjukvårdskostnader sparas genom att: -Omfördelning av vårdresurser till kvinnor med ökad risk för PE ± IUGR. -Undvika onödig sjukhusvistelser för mödrar med misstänkt PE. -Mer precis övervakning av sjukdomsförloppet, vilket möjliggör att tidpunkten för förlossning bättre kan planeras och antalet prematurfödslar minimeras.

This provision is coupled to the need to protect the environment from pollution. In many countries, the cost of infrastructure and operation of conventional water treatment plants is prohibitively large. A major initial step in water purification is aggregation of particulate impurities so that they settle from the water that can then be filtered. The present project investigates alternative flocculants from natural products. Crushed seeds from the Moringa tree have been found to be effective, both in small-scale purification and to replace synthetic chemicals in larger treatment works. These give compact dense aggregates of impurity particles. Work will study how the protein in the seeds acts so effectively to aggregate different particles even in the presence of surface active impurities. The seed protein can replace chemicals such as aluminium and iron salts or synthetic polymers that have been identified as potential hazards to health. The work will identify what refinement of the protein is necessary and whether alternative seeds from other species of Moringa or even other plants could be used. In parallel, the capability of binding metals to the protein will be explored. Washing of contaminated soil with such binding agents is a good means to remove heavy metal impurities. Development of these technologies using natural products is likely to be of use in many countries. Rent vatten är en grundförutsättning i dagens samhälle. När man tillgodoser behovet av rent vatten måste man även tänka på att värna om miljön och minimera utsläpp av föroreningar. I många länder är dessutom kostanden för infrastruktur och drift av traditionella vattenreningsverk oöverkomligt stor. Det här projektet undersöker alternativa, hållbara vattenreningsmetoder där man använder naturliga produkter, rikt förekommande i tropiska och sub-tropiska områden. I vattenreningsprocessen är ett omfattande första steg sammanklumpning av partikelföroreningar, så att dessa faller till botten och kan filtreras av. Krossade frön ifrån det rikligt förekommande Moringa oleifera trädet har visat sig väldigt effektiva att forma partikelföroreningar till kompakta, filtrerbara klumpar. Dessa kan användas både i småskalig vattenrening och som alternativ till syntetiska kemikalier i större vattenreningsverk. Fröna skulle således kunna ersätta kemikalier såsom aluminium och järnsalter eller syntetiska polymerer som vanligen används vid vattenrening, då dessa har negativa effekter på både hälsa och miljö. Andra delar av Moringa oleifera trädet används bl.a. i föda, vilket gör användadet av dessa frön för rening av dricksvatten allmänt accepterat. Den här studien är fokuserad på proteiner i fröna, vad det är som gör dem så effektiva att klumpa samman partiklar, även i närvaro av föroreningar såsom tvål och oljor. Studien syftar till att identifiera hur mycket fröna behöver bearbetas och renas för att effektivt kunna användas till vattenrening, och huruvida frön ifrån andra sorters närbesläktade träd eller växter kan användas. Parallellt med detta arbete kommer även proteinernas kapacitet att binda till metallatomer att studeras. Att skölja jord som förorenats av tungmetaller med ett bindemedel är ett bra sätt att avlägsna metallatomer ur jorden. Metalliska föroreningar i jord är ett utbrett problem, speciellt i samband med gruvarbete. Utveckling av tekniker där miljövänliga och naturligt förekommande produkter används kan sannolikt tillämpas i många länder. Användandet av dessa produkter kommer att förbättra hälsan och rena miljön, samt erbjuder ekonomisk utveckling då lokala produker kan användas både inom utvecklingsländer och för export.

The seed protein can replace chemicals such as aluminium and iron salts or synthetic polymers that have been identified as potential hazards to health. The work will identify what refinement of the protein is necessary and whether alternative seeds from other species of Moringa or even other plants could be used. In parallel, the capability of binding metals to the protein will be explored. Washing of contaminated soil with such binding agents is a good means to remove heavy metal impurities. Development of these technologies using natural products is likely to be of use in many countries. Rent vatten är en grundförutsättning i dagens samhälle. När man tillgodoser behovet av rent vatten måste man även tänka på att värna om miljön och minimera utsläpp av föroreningar. I många länder är dessutom kostanden för infrastruktur och drift av traditionella vattenreningsverk oöverkomligt stor. Det här projektet undersöker alternativa, hållbara vattenreningsmetoder där man använder naturliga produkter, rikt förekommande i tropiska och sub-tropiska områden. I vattenreningsprocessen är ett omfattande första steg sammanklumpning av partikelföroreningar, så att dessa faller till botten och kan filtreras av. Krossade frön ifrån det rikligt förekommande Moringa oleifera trädet har visat sig väldigt effektiva att forma partikelföroreningar till kompakta, filtrerbara klumpar. Dessa kan användas både i småskalig vattenrening och som alternativ till syntetiska kemikalier i större vattenreningsverk. Fröna skulle således kunna ersätta kemikalier såsom aluminium och järnsalter eller syntetiska polymerer som vanligen används vid vattenrening, då dessa har negativa effekter på både hälsa och miljö. Andra delar av Moringa oleifera trädet används bl.a. i föda, vilket gör användadet av dessa frön för rening av dricksvatten allmänt accepterat. Den här studien är fokuserad på proteiner i fröna, vad det är som gör dem så effektiva att klumpa samman partiklar, även i närvaro av föroreningar såsom tvål och oljor. Studien syftar till att identifiera hur mycket fröna behöver bearbetas och renas för att effektivt kunna användas till vattenrening, och huruvida frön ifrån andra sorters närbesläktade träd eller växter kan användas. Parallellt med detta arbete kommer även proteinernas kapacitet att binda till metallatomer att studeras. Att skölja jord som förorenats av tungmetaller med ett bindemedel är ett bra sätt att avlägsna metallatomer ur jorden. Metalliska föroreningar i jord är ett utbrett problem, speciellt i samband med gruvarbete. Utveckling av tekniker där miljövänliga och naturligt förekommande produkter används kan sannolikt tillämpas i många länder. Användandet av dessa produkter kommer att förbättra hälsan och rena miljön, samt erbjuder ekonomisk utveckling då lokala produker kan användas både inom utvecklingsländer och för export.

This increase is largely related to rapid changes in life style including a more unhealthy diet and a marked reduction of physical activity (PA). In the wake of the increased prevalence of diabetes, cardiovascular morbidity and mortality rises. This puts a large toll on GDP growth and the economical situation for families, of which many risk poverty. Diabetes can, cost-effectively, both be prevented and treated with improved life style, e.g. increased PA. The main purpose of this study is to compare clinical and quality of life outcomes of an Individualized PA (IPA) intervention programme with the outcomes of standard care (SC) for newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients in Hanoi, Viet Nam. Other purposes are to establish and deepen the collaboration between Swedish and Viet Namese biomedical researchers in physical activity patient research. METHODS: 50 newly diagnosed patients with T2D will receive a 12-week IPA programme. A comparison group (n=50) will receive SC. The IPA group receives intensive education and individualized recommendation for PA and weekly telephone calls. Before and after the programme, fasting and oral glucose tolerance test, HbA1c, plasma insulin level and fitness level will be assessed. INDIVIDANPASSAD FYSISK AKTIVITET SOM BEHANDLING AV DIABETES I Viet Nam Förekomsten av diabetes ökar snabbt i Viet Nam, vilket är ett mönster som liknar det i andra medelinkomstländer. Denna ökning är till stor del orsakad av förändrade levnadsvanor, däribland en mer ohälsosam kost och minskad fysisk aktivitet. Som en följd av den tilltagande förekomsten av diabetes ökar sjuklighet och dödlighet i hjärtkärlsjukdom. Detta påverkar såväl Viet Nams BNP-tillväxt som enskilda familjers ekonomi negativt med risk för fattigdom för många. Diabetes kan, på ett kostnadseffektivt sätt, både förebyggas och behandlas med förbättrade levnadsvanor, däribland ökad fysisk aktivitet. Huvudsyftet med denna studie är att, i Hanoi i Viet Nam, jämföra intensiv och individanpassad fysisk aktivitetsbehandling med gängse behandling för nydiagnosticerade typ 2 diabetiker vad gäller sjukdomsgrad och livskvalitet. Andra syften med projektet är att fördjupa samarbetet mellan svenska och Viet Namesiska medicinska och folkhälsovetenskapliga forskare inom området fysisk aktivitet för sjukdomsprevention och sjukdomsbehandling. METOD: 50 nydiagnosticerade patienter med diabetes genomgår ett 12 veckor långt individanpassat program med fysisk aktivitet. Detta innefattar intensiv utbildning, individuella rekommendationer för fysisk aktivitet och ett telefonsamtal per vecka. Jämförelsegruppen erhåller gängse behandling. Före och efter programmet mäts fasteblodsocker, sockertolerans, insulinnivåer, livskvalitet samt fysisk funktionsförmåga. Vi förväntar oss att denna strukturerade studie av livsstilsförändring i Hanoi ger ny kunskap om hur en Viet Namesisk grupp av diabetiker leder till ny kunskap om effekter och metoder i ett medelinkomstland med ökande förekomst av kroniska sjukdomar. Dessutom är avsikten att framgent kunna utforma optimerade, individanpassade ordinationer av livsstilsförändringar. Vi har stor tilltro till möjligheten att genomföra en mycket välkontrollerad studie.

It aims to study two large innovative demand side financing programs to reduce maternal death by promoting institutional delivery among women living below poverty line in India. One program is a conditional cash transfer to poor women on delivering in a state hospital. The other is a reimbursement by the state to private sector obstetricians for deliveries of poor women that they have performed i.e a voucher scheme. The programs operate to scale in Madhya Pradesh & Gujarat provinces of India respectively.

Detta projekt är ett forskningssamarbete mellan Sverige och Indien inom mödrahälsovård. Syftet är att studera två stora innovativa finansieringsprogram som avser öka efterfrågan på vård och minska mödradödligheten genom att främja institutionella förlossningar för kvinnor som lever under fattigdomsgränsen i Indien. Indien står för 20 procent av den globala mödradödligheten, 26 procent av befolkningen lever under fattigdomsgränsen, och fortsätter att ha en av den högsta mödradödligheten (MMR) i världen. Därför krävs framstegen i Indien för att nå Millennieutvecklingsmål (MDG) 5 till 2015. Ett program innebär villkorlig kontantöverföring till fattiga kvinnor när de föder på ett offentliga sjukhus, medan det andra programmet innebär statlig kompensation till obstetriker vid privata kliniker som förlöser fattiga kvinnor, dvs. ett kupongsystem. Alla betalningar görs av staten. Programmen finns i provinserna Madhya Pradesh (70 000 000 personer) respektive Gujarat (60 000 000 personer). Programmen är baserade på liknande koncept, dvs. finansiella incitament för tillhandahållande av, och användning av hälsovård. Däremot finns stora skillnader som påverkar önskade resultat av mödrahälsa; kontext, finansieringsmekanismer, modell av betalningsleverantör, incitament, och olika nivåer av privata sektorns inblandning. Det övergripande målet är att granska effekten av och jämföra dessa två storskaliga program inom mödrahälsa i Indien gällande a) hälsoeffekter (speciellt mödradödlighet) b)incitamentsstrukturens påverkan på hälsoeffekter c)den fördelade effekten av programmen d) privata hälsosektorns bidrag till hälsoeffekterna.

Recent knowledge concerning the vulnerability of preterm and term infants exposed to distress and pain has increased requirements for careful handling. In order to develop less painful techniques and methods for the purpose of diminishing procedural pain, the infant?s experience of pain must be objectively assessed. In this project, we will study pain assessment by using behavioral indicators: facial expressions. Facial expression display has been considered as an objective indicator of pain and shown consistencies in both infants and toddlers. Different facial expression coding systems have been extensively used as research tools, and also tested for bedside application. Although these facial expression coding systems are promising in characterizing pain expressions, they require human observers, which is very time intensive. Manual FACS coding would require as much as 10 hours for each minute of video data. In addition, the coding results are highly observer-dependent. To enable rigorous, efficient, and quantitative measurement of facial expressions, it is highly desirable to have an automated facial expression analysis system. The goal of the project is to develop theory and methods of automatic facial expression analysis for building quantitative pain assessment based on facial expressions. Smärtan hos nyfödda har länge varit underskattad och otillräckligt behandlad. Kunskap om barns känslighet för smärta och stress har under de senaste åren väckt krav på skonsammare hantering. För att kunna utveckla mindre smärtsamma tekniker och metoder vid vårdprocedurerna för nyfödda, måste graden av stress och smärta kunna bedömas. Bedömaren är hänvisad till att iaktta barnets beteende samt fysiologiska och biokemiska reaktioner. Ofta finns det inte något betydelsefullt samband mellan de tre faktorerna. I vårt projekt kommer vi att bedöma smärta genom att mäta barnets ansiktsuttryck. Olika system för att analysera ansiktsuttryck har använts inom forskning och olika applikationer. Exempelvis är Neonatal Facial Coding System (NFCS) utvecklad från ett system som bedömer känslor hos vuxna: Facial Action Coding System (FACS). Detta system har använts intensivt som forskningsverktyg. Trots att dessa tekniker är lovande när det gäller bedömningar av smärta, krävs det dock fortfarande att människor gör bedömningen. De mänskliga faktorerna kan skapa olika variationer, till exempel graden av objektivitet, omfattningen av smärtan mm, vilket skapar osäkerhet i bedömningarna. Efterfrågan på ett automatiskt system är därför stor. Målet med detta projekt är att utveckla tekniker och metoder för automatisk bedömning av smärta genom att titta på ansiktsuttryck. För att avgöra vad ansiktsuttryck är behövs ordentliga beskrivningar. Craig?s Neotanal Facial Coding System (NFCS) kommer att användas i detta projekt. NFCS innehåller 10 ansiktsuttryck som människan visar vid smärta och analysen av smärta grundar sig helt på dessa. Exempelvis kan negativa uttryck kan härledas till hopdragna ögonbryn, rynkor vid näsan, öppna läppar mm. NFCS anses vara ett bra verktyg för att mäta smärta under de nyföddas första period. Ett system som automatiskt analyserar ansiktsuttryck kommer att tas fram som bygger på NFCS och standarden Modified Behavioral Pain Scale (MBPS). I jämförelse med att manuellt analysera uttryck är ett datorbaserat system mycket mer tidseffektivt. Att göra allt manuellt kräver mycket träning och det kan ta upp till 10 timmar att analysera en minut av en videofilm. Ett automatiskt system kommer att klara av att analysera 5-10 bilder per sekund.

Recent knowledge concerning the vulnerability of preterm and term infants exposed to distress and pain has increased requirements for careful handling. In order to develop less painful techniques and methods for the purpose of diminishing procedural pain, the infant?s experience of pain must be objectively assessed. In this project, we will study pain assessment by using behavioral indicators: facial expressions. Facial expression display has been considered as an objective indicator of pain and shown consistencies in both infants and toddlers. Different facial expression coding systems have been extensively used as research tools, and also tested for bedside application. Although these facial expression coding systems are promising in characterizing pain expressions, they require human observers, which is very time intensive. Manual FACS coding would require as much as 10 hours for each minute of video data. In addition, the coding results are highly observer-dependent. To enable rigorous, efficient, and quantitative measurement of facial expressions, it is highly desirable to have an automated facial expression analysis system. The goal of the project is to develop theory and methods of automatic facial expression analysis for building quantitative pain assessment based on facial expressions.

Samtidigt kommer forskningsresultaten ge ökad insikt om varför det mänskliga immunsystemet inte kan kontrollera infektion med HIV virus, och förhoppningsvis ge infallsvinklar till nya behandlingsformer vid såväl HIV infektion som andra kroniska infektioner.

To detect selective sweeps attributed to domestication processes genomes of wild and domestic Bos javanicus will be sequenced using massive parallel sequencing. Genomic comparisons to whole genome data from taurine and indicine cattle will be used to draw general conclusions about the domestication process in bovids and its effect on the genome. This knowledge will be used to improve the Indonesian cattle stock, mainly focusing on Bali cattle. This collaborative project has great potential to benefit the local Indonesian community; it will provide further insight into genetic diversity and the origin of banteng and Bali cattle. Information that will contribute to knowledge of the mutations underlying variation in economically important traits in the dairy and beef cattle industries, thus benefiting the livestock industry in Indonesia in particular, and also all over the world. This can contribute to the management and conservation of both domestic and wild cattle. The project is of particular interest because wild banteng is on the verge of extinction. Demonstrating that banteng carry unique genes or gene variants, and establishing the species as a model species for studies of domestication, evolution and animal genetics may add to the case for its conservation. Balinötkreatur kan svara på frågor om domesticeringen och anpassning till subtropiskt klimat. Domesticeringen av djur och växter är bland de viktigaste förändringar som ägt rum i mänsklighetens historia och lade grunden till det moderna samhället. Ett av våra viktigaste husdjur är nötkreatur. Under 10 000 år har vi fått bland annat kött, mjölk och draghjälp av nötkreatur. Uroxen, som är ursprunget till Europeiska nötkreatur, utrotades för ungefär 400 år sedan. Det är därför inte möjligt att göra jämförande studier mellan tama och vilda nötkreatur. I en separat domesticeringsprocess i Indonesien tämjdes en annan bovid (nötkreatur), Bantengen, dess tama variant kallas Balinötkreatur. Det finns idag bara ett fåtal vilda Bantenger kvar, och de hotas främst av tjuvjakt och minskade habitat. Balinötkreatur däremot är vanlig i småjordbruk i Indonesien eftersom den är väldigt väl anpassad till det subtropiska klimatet, och kan överleva på foder av dålig kvalitet. Balinötkreatur är därför bland de viktigaste Indonesiska husdjuren och nyttjas främst för köttproduktion,jämfört med andra nötkreatur ger de en hög production av kött. Domesticeringen har medfört en rad förändringar i de tama djuren jämfört med deras vilda förfäder. Främst är det förändringar i temperament, pälsfärg, storlek, och produktionsförmåga. De tidiga förändringar som skedde på grund av domesticeringen kan lätt bli överskuggade av senare tiders extrema avel av t.ex., hund, nötkreatur och gris. Balinötkreatur utgör ett viktigt undantag då de ej har selekterats hårt för produktionsegenskaper. Det är också förvånansvärt liten morfologisk skillnad mellan Banteng och Balinötkreatur. Det finns inte heller olika raser av Balinötkreatur, detta är unikt när det gäller husdjur. Undersökningar av Banteng och Balinötkreatur erbjuder därför ett nytt och mycket lovande system för att undersöka adaptiva egenskaper och domesticering. Huvudmålet med projektet är att identifiera regioner i genomet som gör att Balinötkreatur är väl anpassade till ett subtropiskt klimat, det finns även stor potential att hitta områden i arvsmassan hos Balinötkreatur och Bantenger som påverkats av selektion som en följd av domesticeringen. Vi förväntar oss att hitta regioner som innehåller gener vilka kan vara viktiga för uthållig köttproduktion. Baserat på erhållna resultat kan vi utveckla avelsprogram. Vi kommer att sekvensera hela arvsmassan från Balinötkreatur och vilda Bantenger.Det är nu möjligt att sekvensera hela arvsmassan från däggdjursindivider mycket snabbt och till relativt låga kostnader. Vi kommer sedan jämföra arvsmassan från Balinötkreatur och Banteng med arvsmassan från flera vanliga Europeiska nötraser. Jämförelser av detta slag gör det möjligt att hitta regioner i arvsmassan med extremt låg variation, vilka kan innehålla gener som selekterats. Den föreslagna forskningen kan leda till en ökad förståelse för hur domesticeringen påverkat arvsmassan hos våra husdjur, samt öka förståelsen för hur viktiga funktioner i nötboskap och dess släktingar utvecklats, till exempel reproduktion, idisslande, kött och mjölkproduktion.

To detect selective sweeps attributed to domestication processes genomes of wild and domestic Bos javanicus will be sequenced using massive parallel sequencing. Genomic comparisons to whole genome data from taurine and indicine cattle will be used to draw general conclusions about the domestication process in bovids and its effect on the genome. This knowledge will be used to improve the Indonesian cattle stock, mainly focusing on Bali cattle. This collaborative project has great potential to benefit the local Indonesian community; it will provide further insight into genetic diversity and the origin of banteng and Bali cattle. Information that will contribute to knowledge of the mutations underlying variation in economically important traits in the dairy and beef cattle industries, thus benefiting the livestock industry in Indonesia in particular, and also all over the world. This can contribute to the management and conservation of both domestic and wild cattle. The project is of particular interest because wild banteng is on the verge of extinction. Demonstrating that banteng carry unique genes or gene variants, and establishing the species as a model species for studies of domestication, evolution and animal genetics may add to the case for its conservation. Balinötkreatur kan svara på frågor om domesticeringen och anpassning till subtropiskt klimat. Domesticeringen av djur och växter är bland de viktigaste förändringar som ägt rum i mänsklighetens historia och lade grunden till det moderna samhället. Ett av våra viktigaste husdjur är nötkreatur. Under 10 000 år har vi fått bland annat kött, mjölk och draghjälp av nötkreatur. Uroxen, som är ursprunget till Europeiska nötkreatur, utrotades för ungefär 400 år sedan. Det är därför inte möjligt att göra jämförande studier mellan tama och vilda nötkreatur. I en separat domesticeringsprocess i Indonesien tämjdes en annan bovid (nötkreatur), Bantengen, dess tama variant kallas Balinötkreatur. Det finns idag bara ett fåtal vilda Bantenger kvar, och de hotas främst av tjuvjakt och minskade habitat. Balinötkreatur däremot är vanlig i småjordbruk i Indonesien eftersom den är väldigt väl anpassad till det subtropiska klimatet, och kan överleva på foder av dålig kvalitet. Balinötkreatur är därför bland de viktigaste Indonesiska husdjuren och nyttjas främst för köttproduktion,jämfört med andra nötkreatur ger de en hög production av kött. Domesticeringen har medfört en rad förändringar i de tama djuren jämfört med deras vilda förfäder. Främst är det förändringar i temperament, pälsfärg, storlek, och produktionsförmåga. De tidiga förändringar som skedde på grund av domesticeringen kan lätt bli överskuggade av senare tiders extrema avel av t.ex., hund, nötkreatur och gris. Balinötkreatur utgör ett viktigt undantag då de ej har selekterats hårt för produktionsegenskaper. Det är också förvånansvärt liten morfologisk skillnad mellan Banteng och Balinötkreatur. Det finns inte heller olika raser av Balinötkreatur, detta är unikt när det gäller husdjur. Undersökningar av Banteng och Balinötkreatur erbjuder därför ett nytt och mycket lovande system för att undersöka adaptiva egenskaper och domesticering. Huvudmålet med projektet är att identifiera regioner i genomet som gör att Balinötkreatur är väl anpassade till ett subtropiskt klimat, det finns även stor potential att hitta områden i arvsmassan hos Balinötkreatur och Bantenger som påverkats av selektion som en följd av domesticeringen. Vi förväntar oss att hitta regioner som innehåller gener vilka kan vara viktiga för uthållig köttproduktion. Baserat på erhållna resultat kan vi utveckla avelsprogram. Vi kommer att sekvensera hela arvsmassan från Balinötkreatur och vilda Bantenger.Det är nu möjligt att sekvensera hela arvsmassan från däggdjursindivider mycket snabbt och till relativt låga kostnader. Vi kommer sedan jämföra arvsmassan från Balinötkreatur och Banteng med arvsmassan från flera vanliga Europeiska nötraser. Jämförelser av detta slag gör det möjligt att hitta regioner i arvsmassan med extremt låg variation, vilka kan innehålla gener som selekterats. Den föreslagna forskningen kan leda till en ökad förståelse för hur domesticeringen påverkat arvsmassan hos våra husdjur, samt öka förståelsen för hur viktiga funktioner i nötboskap och dess släktingar utvecklats, till exempel reproduktion, idisslande, kött och mjölkproduktion.

First, it seeks to develop comparative studies on welfare systems in different development contexts. Particularly the project explores characteristics and outcomes of welfare policies in different social policy sectors. The project also tries to develop an understanding of the main actors (government, market, etc) in shaping the development of the welfare systems in different economies. The collaborative research includes partners from Lund University, Institute of European Studies at Chinese Academy of Social Science in Beijing and Faculty of Sociology at Viet Nam National University in Haoni. Second, the project aims to establish an international collaborative research network with researchers at universities and research institutes in East Asia. Third, it compares existing Swedish research on welfare and social policy and research being conducted in East Asia partner countries. Fourth, it will be a contribution to the interdisciplinary study of globalisation and welfare development. The collaboration within the project will be coordinated by Lund University and is organised around three yearly workshops including all of the partners. Each workshop will be organised by the partner universities and focus on the specialty of each partner´s research. The main result of the project will be an anthology to which each partner will contribute and joint comparative research programmes. Vårt projekt av jämförande forskning av välfärd och socialpolitik i olika utvecklingskontexter skiljer sig från traditionell forskning inom området. Istället för att fokusera analyser av välfärd och socialpolitik i utvecklingsländer på makronivå, såsom välfärdsregimer, studerar vårt projekt välfärdsresultat inom specifika sektorer.

De etablerade samarbetena kommer att vidareutvecklas i projektet som i huvudsak består av fyra faser. Under första fasen planerar vi att jämföra empiriskt material av välfärdsindikatorer inom sektorer som t ex socialförsäkringar, utbildningssystem, barnomsorg, äldreomsorg, bostadspolitik i de olika länderna. Förutom att erhålla en klarare bild av välfärden i de olika länderna i ett jämförande perspektiv planerar vi också att analysera huvudaktörernas (stat, marknad, hushåll m fl) roller visavi de olika socialpolitiska programmen. Denna första fas resulterar i en workshop i Beijing (april 2012) där insamlat empiriskt material analyseras. I den andra fasen planerar vi att med hjälp av en standardiserad modell genomföra jämförande analyser av det insamlade materialet. Denna fas avslutas med en workshop i Hanoi (februari 2013). Slutligen leder projektet till en sammanställning av en antologi med de sektorspecifika välfärdsanalyserna i ett jämförande perspektiv. Denna sista fas avslutas med en workshop i Lund (april/maj 2014) där varje forskarlag presenterar texter avsedda för antologin. Projektet koordineras av forskarlaget vid Lunds universitet, medan varje workshop organiseras av forskarlagen i respektive land. Vårt projekt vidareutvecklar jämförande välfärds- och socialpolitisk forskning genom att skifta fokus från makro till mikronivå, där regimanalyser ersätts av sektoranalyser för att möjliggöra en fördjupad och mer detaljerad jämförelse av välfärd i olika länder. På så sätt kan vi på ett mer träffsäkert sätt analysera välfärden såsom den upplevs, produceras och reproduceras av olika aktörer. Vår fokus på särskilda sektorer gör att vi kan undvika de största hindren som traditionellt uppstått i den analytiska överföringen från utvecklade till utvecklingsländer. Vårt fokus minskar beroendet av homogena välfärdskontexter och kan appliceras på heterogena kontexter. Projektet bidrar också till att fördjupa internationellt samarbete inom välfärds- och socialpolitisk forskning genom det nätverk mellan svenska och asiatiska forskare som utgör projektets grund. För övrigt utvidgar projektet analytiska metoder inom forskningsområdet genom att vi utvecklar en modell för jämförande forskning av välfärd inom olika sektorer. Slutligen bör nämnas att projektet i sig utgör en inventering av pågående välfärds- och socialpolitisk forskning i Sverige och våra partnerländer, en inventering som i sig utgör en kunskapsplattform som blir grunden för framtida projekt i vilka projektgruppen kommer att samarbeta.

For this reason, it is an important preventative against malnutrition and due to long-time storage capability of the seeds, an important food security component. Finger millet is grossly neglected on R&D, compared to the research lavished on wheat, rice, and maize. The overall purpose of this project is, via networking and selected inputs, to build a knowledge base on finger millet in East Africa, where also the bulk of the gene pool is located. Our aim will be accomplished by: 1. Joining meetings/workshops with new regional programmes to optimise outputs of R&D and thereby establish a strong network including private partnerships. 2. Inviting international experts to boost knowledge where gaps have been identified and direct various inputs including capacity building. 3. Collect P. oryzae isolates from various grass hosts & use M. grisea genome information for further characterisation. 4. Use public available grass genome sequences to test their informative value on finger millet genotypes collected. Dissemination of our results to small farmers and the international scientific community are obvious parts of the work. Overall, clarifying breeding strategies, foresee obstacles and suitable materials is the primary goal in food security and innovation perspectives. Creating a platform on which capacity can be built on is a long-term investment including new projects. Finger millet, a cereal crop, is the most important small millet species grown in eastern and southern Africa, and it serves as a subsistence and food security crop that is especially important for its nutritive and cultural values. As such, it is an important food crop in traditional low input cereal-based farming systems in Africa. Finger millet is thought to be African native probably originated in the highlands of Uganda and Ethiopia, where farmers have been growing it for thousands of years. The genetic knowledge and research is limited on finger millet, and the bulk of the gene pool, located in East Africa, remains largely uncharacterized. Finger millet is suitable as a subsistence food crop because it can store safely for many years without insect damage due to its small seeds, hence fitting well in farmers risk avoidance strategies in drought-prone regions. The yields of finger millet on farmers fields are generally low, just about 10-15 % of its theoretical maximum. Beside low research and developmental inputs, blast caused by the fungus Pyricularia oryzae is the most serious disease of finger millet, decreasing yields even further. Finger millet is of special benefit, notably for those who depend on plant foods for their protein. It is higher in protein, fat and minerals than rice, corn, or sorghum. For this reason, finger millet is an important preventative against malnutrition. By virtue of its high nutritive value, finger millet has huge industrial potential so far not exploited. Finger millet is grossly neglected both scientifically and internationally in terms of research, compared to the research lavished on wheat, rice, and maize. With this as a background, the overall aim of this project is, via networking and selected inputs, to build a knowledge bas on finger millet in East Africa. We plan following work, to: 1. Join meetings/workshops with regional programmes to optimise outputs of R&D in the region, and thereby establish a strong network including private partnerships. 2. Invite international experts to boost knowledge where gaps have been identified and direct various inputs including capacity building. 3. Collect P. oryzae isolates from various grass hosts & use M. grisea genome information for further characterisation. 4. Use public available grass genomic sequences to test their informative value on finger millet. We expect to find new novel materials since the gene pool of finger millet has its centre in East Africa. Any new materials have great potentials to generate new genetic knowledge and a broad variety of improvements. Knowledge on adaption of the P. grisea fungal pathogen to different grass hosts and or new races is crucial information and could be important for other regions than East Africa. Knowledge and materials generated will in a long-term perspective be open for new projects to build on. We anticipate for example to identify novel plant and fungal genotypes worthwhile to employ to next-generation sequencing to shed light on natural variation and evolutionary aspects. One important goal is to compile and publish our data to the international scientific community. Similarly, reaching farmers and extension service groups at the Makerere University Farm is another important task where information channels need to be established.

For this reason, it is an important preventative against malnutrition and due to long-time storage capability of the seeds, an important food security component. Finger millet is grossly neglected on R&D, compared to the research lavished on wheat, rice, and maize. The overall purpose of this project is, via networking and selected inputs, to build a knowledge base on finger millet in East Africa, where also the bulk of the gene pool is located. Our aim will be accomplished by: 1. Joining meetings/workshops with new regional programmes to optimise outputs of R&D and thereby establish a strong network including private partnerships. 2. Inviting international experts to boost knowledge where gaps have been identified and direct various inputs including capacity building. 3. Collect P. oryzae isolates from various grass hosts & use M. grisea genome information for further characterisation. 4. Use public available grass genome sequences to test their informative value on finger millet genotypes collected. Dissemination of our results to small farmers and the international scientific community are obvious parts of the work. Overall, clarifying breeding strategies, foresee obstacles and suitable materials is the primary goal in food security and innovation perspectives. Creating a platform on which capacity can be built on is a long-term investment including new projects. Finger millet, a cereal crop, is the most important small millet species grown in eastern and southern Africa, and it serves as a subsistence and food security crop that is especially important for its nutritive and cultural values. As such, it is an important food crop in traditional low input cereal-based farming systems in Africa. Finger millet is thought to be African native probably originated in the highlands of Uganda and Ethiopia, where farmers have been growing it for thousands of years. The genetic knowledge and research is limited on finger millet, and the bulk of the gene pool, located in East Africa, remains largely uncharacterized. Finger millet is suitable as a subsistence food crop because it can store safely for many years without insect damage due to its small seeds, hence fitting well in farmers risk avoidance strategies in drought-prone regions. The yields of finger millet on farmers fields are generally low, just about 10-15 % of its theoretical maximum. Beside low research and developmental inputs, blast caused by the fungus Pyricularia oryzae is the most serious disease of finger millet, decreasing yields even further. Finger millet is of special benefit, notably for those who depend on plant foods for their protein. It is higher in protein, fat and minerals than rice, corn, or sorghum. For this reason, finger millet is an important preventative against malnutrition. By virtue of its high nutritive value, finger millet has huge industrial potential so far not exploited.

This bi-lateral project will definitely deepen the collaboration and communication between Swedish and Chinese institutions. A deeper understanding of the causes and consequences of the problem with ?missing girls? in China (People's Republic of). A preference of sons over daughters has always been a part of the Chinese culture. It has partly been manifested in a high so-called sex ratio at birth (SRB), i.e. the number of boys born per hundred girls. Under normal circumstances, there are approximately 105-107 boys born per 100 girls. Historical documents suggest that China (People's Republic of) has had high SRB for centuries and well into the mid 2000th century. By the beginning of the 1970s SRB in China (People's Republic of) was within the normal range, but after the introduction of the one-child-policy in 1979, it has risen steadily. Most alarming is the fact that the SRB has recently continued to increase in some areas and, at the same time, have spread to new geographic areas and social groups, previously unaffected. The latest available statistics show that in 2005, the SRB was 120.5 national wide. According to the 2000 census, the estimated number of China (People's Republic of)?s missing girls was 40.9 million. Son preference? has been considered particularly strong in rural areas and among less educated parents and it has been implied that the current high sex ratios may be a transitory phenomenon that will diminish with modernization. Contrary to these expectations, the SRB is now rising even in urban areas, among well-educated couples. The rising sex ratio, in the context of the rapid demographic transition with falling fertility, is considered as one of the most alarming demographic and social issues in China (People's Republic of) today. The issue of the ?missing girls? in China (People's Republic of) has aroused broad attention from scholars, the public, Chinese central and provincial governments, and the international community. Most studies, though, have focused on regional trends trends and differences, but very little research has been conducted on a deeper understanding of the causes and consequences of the increasing SRBs. The project ?Dynamics and Consequences of Sex Ratio at Birth in China (People's Republic of)? is mainly a qualitative study, with in-depth interviews with young couples in one rural and one urban area in Northern China (People's Republic of). An additional study includes interviews with village level officials. The project focuses on the on cultural, religious and socio-economic factors that have stimulated and intensified son preference, for example the lack of a social-security system, especially in rural areas, decision-making within the family, and the strict patrilineal and patrilocal family system in China (People's Republic of), which put the responsibilities upon male descendants for economic, socio-cultural and religious functions, all of which encourage son preference.

At the same time, there is a risk that women are once again being marginalized. Women have been very active in the democratic uprisings, especially in Tunisia and Egypt. However, without deliberately focus on how to include women and on the effects of the new quota laws, there is a risk of very little improvement, even a risk of backlash. This research collaboration between Swedish and Arab researchers will focus on the crucial importance of agency, institutional and discursive changes for the new public life in the Arab region. The aim of this project is to develop research ties and collaboration between Swedish and Arab researchers - particularly resrearchers based in North Africa- that are experts on women´s political participation and representation. One key theme is the use of new social media, especially by younger women. The research collaboration will consist of research visits between Sweden and North Africa; two workshops and one larger conference; a PhD course (2-4 ECTS) for younger scholars doing research in this field; joint elite interviews and a common book project. The principal partners are WIP, Women in Politics Research Centre at the Department of Political Science at Stockholm University and CAWTAR, Center for Arab Women Training and Research, settled in Tunis, Tunisia, but working at the regional level. Den senaste händelseutvecklingen i Arabvärlden - den arabiska våren - med revolter mot förtryckande regimer och krav på demokrati ger också kvinnor nya möjligheter till makt och inflytande i politiken. Men samtidigt som en kraftansamling för att skapa nya, politiska system och stabila demokratier har påbörjats, finns en risk att kvinnor återigen underordnas och marginaliseras. Många forskare och kvinnoorganisationer i regionen baserar sitt arbete för kvinnors politiska inflytande på detta dubbla perspektiv. Ett av projektets huvudsyfte är således att studera hur kvinnors tillgång till makt och inflytande i politiken har påverkats efter den arabiska våren. Kvinnor var mycket aktiva i de demokratiska upproren i Arabvärlden, särskilt i Tunisien och Egypten. De spelade en avgörande roll genom att aktivt delta i demonstrationer, ofta med risk för sina liv, men också genom att sprida meddelanden och synpunkter via sociala medier och därigenom utmana gamla maktstrukturer. Men i återbyggnaden av de politiska institutionerna har deras roll varit mycket begränsad, om inte obefintlig. Feministiska forskare och kvinnorörelsen i regionen är väl medveten om att det finns flera historiska exempel på att kvinnor åter förpassas till hemmen efter att ha deltagit i revolutionära processer och att den för regionen höga kvinnorepresentationen, 27,6 % i Tunisien (2009), inte är för alltid given. Sammantaget utmanar den arabiska våren befintliga teorier om kvinnors politiska representation. Kombinationen av faktorer, inklusive den omfattande användningen av sociala medier gör situationen unik. Man kan hävda att nya vägar till politiskt inflytande har öppnats, inte minst genom inrättandet av nya politiska partier, ett nytt valsystem, och nya regler om könskvotering. Vilka konsekvenser dessa förändringar kommer att få för kvinnors politiska representation är relevant för hela regionen och något som kommer att studeras i detta projekt. Projektet, som utgår från de deltagande forskarnas expertis och tidigare forskning på området, ämnar genom ett 3-årigt samarbete att utveckla och bredda redan pågående forskning. Detta projekt är ett forskningssamarbete mellan WiP (Women in Politics Research Center), Statsvetenskapliga institutionen vid Stockholms universitet och CAWTAR (Center for Arab Women Training and Research) i Tunis, Tunisien. Projektet avser framförallt att föra samman svenska och tunisiska forskare inom området kön och politisk deltagelse och representation. Inom detta område kommer tre teman att särskilt fokuseras: 1, agency, 2, institutionell förändring och 3, diskursiv förändring. Den första tematiken handlar om frågor såsom i vilken utsträckning den arabiska våren har bidragit till mobilisering av nya grupper, särskilt nya grupper inom kategorierna ?kvinnor? och ?unga?? Den andra tematiken koncentreras kring studiet av insatser och trender för att öka kvinnors politiska inflytande i nya politiska regimer, såsom institutionella förändringar av valsystem, partisystem, kvoteringssystem och dess konsekvenser för en ökad kvinnorepresentation. Den tredje tematiken fokuserar diskursiva spänningar och förändringar, närmare bestämt hur kvinnorörelsen har ramat in sina krav på politiskt deltagande och vilken syn på kvinnor och kvinnliga politiker som dessa diskurser ger uttryck för. Inom ramen för projektet kommer flera seminarier i Sverige och i Tunisien arrangeras, samt en avslutande konferens i MENA-regionen. Syftet bakom dessa aktiviteter är att föra samman specialister på området, författa en redigerad antologi om nya vägar till politiskt inflytande för kvinnor i Arabvärlden. Forskare från andra institutioner vid Stockholms universitet och från andra universitet i Sverige liksom forskare från universitet runt om i Arabvärlden, speciellt Nordafrika, kommer att bli inkluderade i nätverket och flera har redan uttryckt en önskan om att få delta. Projektet avser även att särskilt uppmuntra yngre forskare på området.

The principal partners are WIP, Women in Politics Research Centre at the Department of Political Science at Stockholm University and CAWTAR, Center for Arab Women Training and Research, settled in Tunis, Tunisia, but working at the regional level. Den senaste händelseutvecklingen i Arabvärlden - den arabiska våren - med revolter mot förtryckande regimer och krav på demokrati ger också kvinnor nya möjligheter till makt och inflytande i politiken. Men samtidigt som en kraftansamling för att skapa nya, politiska system och stabila demokratier har påbörjats, finns en risk att kvinnor återigen underordnas och marginaliseras. Många forskare och kvinnoorganisationer i regionen baserar sitt arbete för kvinnors politiska inflytande på detta dubbla perspektiv. Ett av projektets huvudsyfte är således att studera hur kvinnors tillgång till makt och inflytande i politiken har påverkats efter den arabiska våren. Kvinnor var mycket aktiva i de demokratiska upproren i Arabvärlden, särskilt i Tunisien och Egypten. De spelade en avgörande roll genom att aktivt delta i demonstrationer, ofta med risk för sina liv, men också genom att sprida meddelanden och synpunkter via sociala medier och därigenom utmana gamla maktstrukturer. Men i återbyggnaden av de politiska institutionerna har deras roll varit mycket begränsad, om inte obefintlig. Feministiska forskare och kvinnorörelsen i regionen är väl medveten om att det finns flera historiska exempel på att kvinnor åter förpassas till hemmen efter att ha deltagit i revolutionära processer och att den för regionen höga kvinnorepresentationen, 27,6 % i Tunisien (2009), inte är för alltid given. Sammantaget utmanar den arabiska våren befintliga teorier om kvinnors politiska representation. Kombinationen av faktorer, inklusive den omfattande användningen av sociala medier gör situationen unik. Man kan hävda att nya vägar till politiskt inflytande har öppnats, inte minst genom inrättandet av nya politiska partier, ett nytt valsystem, och nya regler om könskvotering. Vilka konsekvenser dessa förändringar kommer att få för kvinnors politiska representation är relevant för hela regionen och något som kommer att studeras i detta projekt. Projektet, som utgår från de deltagande forskarnas expertis och tidigare forskning på området, ämnar genom ett 3-årigt samarbete att utveckla och bredda redan pågående forskning. Detta projekt är ett forskningssamarbete mellan WiP (Women in Politics Research Center), Statsvetenskapliga institutionen vid Stockholms universitet och CAWTAR (Center for Arab Women Training and Research) i Tunis, Tunisien. Projektet avser framförallt att föra samman svenska och tunisiska forskare inom området kön och politisk deltagelse och representation. Inom detta område kommer tre teman att särskilt fokuseras: 1, agency, 2, institutionell förändring och 3, diskursiv förändring. Den första tematiken handlar om frågor såsom i vilken utsträckning den arabiska våren har bidragit till mobilisering av nya grupper, särskilt nya grupper inom kategorierna ?kvinnor? och ?unga?? Den andra tematiken koncentreras kring studiet av insatser och trender för att öka kvinnors politiska inflytande i nya politiska regimer, såsom institutionella förändringar av valsystem, partisystem, kvoteringssystem och dess konsekvenser för en ökad kvinnorepresentation. Den tredje tematiken fokuserar diskursiva spänningar och förändringar, närmare bestämt hur kvinnorörelsen har ramat in sina krav på politiskt deltagande och vilken syn på kvinnor och kvinnliga politiker som dessa diskurser ger uttryck för. Inom ramen för projektet kommer flera seminarier i Sverige och i Tunisien arrangeras, samt en avslutande konferens i MENA-regionen. Syftet bakom dessa aktiviteter är att föra samman specialister på området, författa en redigerad antologi om nya vägar till politiskt inflytande för kvinnor i Arabvärlden. Forskare från andra institutioner vid Stockholms universitet och från andra universitet i Sverige liksom forskare från universitet runt om i Arabvärlden, speciellt Nordafrika, kommer att bli inkluderade i nätverket och flera har redan uttryckt en önskan om att få delta. Projektet avser även att särskilt uppmuntra yngre forskare på området.

Improved understanding of plant-soil-microbe interactions to improve crop growth & biotic and abiotic stress tolerance has therefore never been a more urgent priority than it is today.

Dessa jordbrukssystem är ett resultat av en medveten satsning på forskning inom vad vi i Sverige kallar för ekosystemtjänster inom jordbruket. Dessa resultat har nåtts genom att använda växtföljder, aktiv tillsättning av tillväxtbefrämjande bakterier och svampar och tillsats av olika typer av kompost. Dessa strategier kan användas som en bas när när hållbara jordbruksstrategier ska utvecklas på andra håll i världen. Inom detta projekt kommer vi att arbeta med ett aktuellt hot mot jordbrukssproduktiviteten i låglänta delar av världen, nämligen översvämning av saltvatten i jordbruksmark på grund av höjda havsnivåer som orsakats av växthuseffekten. I Viet Nam har man tagit fram speciella salttoleranta rissorter för att motverka detta miljöhot. I detta projekt kommer vi att studera hur den mikrobiologiska floran hos dessa sorter påverkas i jämförelse med mer traditionella sorter. Vidare kommer generell påverkan på bakterier och svampar vid saltöversvämmning att studeras liksom gener som uttryck när växthusgaserna metan och lustgas omsätts av bakterier. I en annan del av projektet kommer vi att mer specifikt att studera vilka mekanismer som ligger bakom att vissa mikro-organismer kan öka jordbrukets skördar. Då kommer bakterien Burkholderia Viet Namensis att användas som studieobjekt. Den kan fixera kväve ur luften (ett viktigt växtnäringsämne), försvara grödan mot patogena svampar liksom stimulera tillväxten. Bakteriens mekanismer kommer att studeras genom att dess genom sekvenseras så att vi ser vilka gener som ligger bakom dess växtstimulerande funktion. De vetenskapliga resultaten kommer att implenteras i det dagliga jordbruket på så sätt att vi kommer att kunna peka på hur jordens långsiktiga bördighet påverkas av saltöversvämmningar.

Virus infekterar växter och kan då orsaka allvarliga sjukdomar med stora skördeförluster. Begomovirus har dykt upp som en viktig patogen på många grödor i tropiska och subtropiska regioner runt hela världen. Arvsmassan hos begomovirus består av DNA, vilket annars är ovanligt för växtinfekterande virus. Begomovirus överförs mellan växter av en art av vita flygare: Bemisia tabaci. Tomat påverkas av många olika begomovirus. År 2007 hade 55 arter av begomovirus rapporterats infektera tomat i Europa, Asien, Afrika, Sydamerika, Nordamerika och Australien. En del av dessa begomovirus orsakar sjukdomen tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD), vilket anses vara en av de allvarligaste sjukdomarna på tomat. I medelhavsregionen har Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) och Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus (TYLCSV) snabbt spridits och de är nu vanliga. Nyligen har också nya begomovirus uppträtt i Spanien som ett resultat av utbyte av genetiskt material mellan olika virus. TYLCV har spritt sig från medelhavsregionen till andra delar av världen, inklusive Nordamerika och Ostasien. Det har antagligen skett genom transport av infekterade växter. Att begomovirus framträtt som en viktig patogen har förknippats med spridningen av biotyp B av B. tabaci. Kontroll av insektsvektorn med insekticider försvåras av att den lätt utvecklar resistens. För närvarande finns det heller inga tomatsorter som är helt resistenta mot begomovirus. Kontrollen av TYLCD är därför beroende av odlingsmetoder som förhindrar virusspridning och utvecklandet av resistenta tomatsorter. För effektiv kontroll av TYLCV är det nödvändigt med forskning på virusdiversitet och evolution, vektorn B. tabaci, och virusresistens. TYLCD är av signifikant betydelse i MENA-regionen. Även i Sverige finns det risk för att begomovirus och B. tabaci etablerar sig i växthus. De tre sökandena Dr. Anders Kvarnheden (Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet), Professor Toba Osman (Fayoum University, Egypten) och Dr. Ayed Al-Abdallat (University of Jordan) kommer att kombinera sin expertis för att öka kunskapen om TYLCD-associerade virus och hur TYLCD kan kontrolleras. Olika molekylära verktyg kommer att användas för detta projekt. Tomatprover insamlade i Egypten, Jordanien och Sverige (importerad frukt) kommer att analyseras för att studera virusdiversitet och för att detektera eventuella nya stammar och arter av begomovirus. Fokus kommer speciellt ligga på tomatplantor som uppvisar nya typer av symtom. Transgena tomatplantor kommer användas för att förstå växt-virusinteraktioner och för att erhålla virusresistens. Förmågan hos olika begomovirus från medelhavsregionen och Afrika att infektera de transgena plantorna kommer att undersökas. Resistensen mot TYLCD ska kunna motstå infektion från existerande och nya begomovirus samt de DNA-satelliter som ofta följer med begomovirus. Det är dåligt känt hur begomovirus infekterar frukt och hur de påverkar fruktutvecklingen. För att studera virus-värdinteraktioner på cellnivå kommer frukter av olika ålder samlas in från infekterade tomatplantor och virusmängder och virusets utbredning i frukten bestämmas. Årliga workshops kommer anordnas i Jordanien, Sverige och Egypten för att diskutera projektets framsteg och för planering. De tre sökandena samt deltagande doktorander och masterstudenter kommer delta i dessa workshops. Mötena kommer också omfatta en öppen del för forskare och användare i regionen. Projektet kommer vara en viktig plattform för att initiera ytterligare samarbeten mellan de deltagande universiteten och länderna. Visionen är att projektet är startpunkten för ett långtgående samarbete, som också omfattar andra länder med ett intresse för TYLCV.

HCAIs are characterized by high rates of antimicrobial use and resistance. Previous studies in Ethiopia indicated 59% of patients attending the surgical ward at Tikur-Anbessa University Hospital (TAH) acquired HCAI. HCAI is a major problem in Ethiopian Hospitals. The present study is designed through research collaboration between Karolinska Institutet and Addis Ababa University to perform the first controlled intervention testing in Ethiopia through capacity building and knowledge transfer for early identification and prevention of HCAIs and antimicrobial-resistance. The study focuses in 2 major areas that are inseparable (HCAIs + antimicrobial use and resistance). A 3-phase prospective study will be conducted at TAH in Addis Ababa. First baseline surveillance study will be done to identify the prevalence, severity, etiology, risk factors, pathogens responsible for HCAIs and antimicrobial resistance, spread pattern, knowledge, practice and attitudes of healthcare staff towards HCAIs. In the 2nd phase, educational interventions will be introduced based on the gap and problems identified. In the 3rd phase we will evaluate the impact of intervention. The study will strengthen further the existing collaboration between Karolinska and Addis Ababa University to fight against infection outbreak, epidemics of communicable diseases and poverty. Antimikrobiell resistens är ett av de allvarligaste hoten mot folkhälsan, och om inget görs riskerar vi att stå utan många av de läkemedel som utgör grunden för den moderna sjukvården. Ett område som särskilt prioriterats av europeiska smittskyddsmyndigheten, och som starkt berör resistensproblematiken, är vårdrelaterade infektioner. Vårdrelaterade infektioner (sjukhusinfektioner) är ett stort problem som orsakar ökad sjukhusvistelse, kostnader för behandling och dödlighet. Vårdrelaterade infektioner (VRI) drabbar patient till följd av vård, undersökning eller behandling inom hälso- och sjukvård eller tandvård oavsett om det sjukdomsalstrande ämnet tillförs i samband med vården eller härrör från patienten själv samt oavsett om infektionstillståndet yppas under eller efter vårdtillfället. Med VRI avses även infektionstillstånd som personal ådragit sig till följd av arbetet. Dessa problem är i länder med låg sjukdomsstandard enligt sporadiska rapporter än avsevärt större om än dåligt undersökt. Överföring av VRI från tidigare patienter, besökare och personal kan leda till utbrott och spridas ut till samhället. Behandling av VRI är komplicerat på grund av hög förekomst av multiresistenta bakterier (MRB) och hälso- och omsorg kan fungera som förstärkare av utbrott, öka antalet nya fall. Tidigare studier i Etiopien har visat att upp till 59% av patienterna på en kirurgavdelning vid Tikur Anbessa sjukhus, fick en vårdrelaterad sårinfektion framförallt av multiresistenta gramnegativa bakterier . En hög andel (63%) av vårdrelaterade urinvägsinfektioner orsakades av MRB vid samma sjukhus. Flera studier visat att antibiotikaresistens och VRI är ett stort problem i Etiopien, har ingen interventionsstudie för att förebygga dessa infektioner har hittills genomförts. Det är tydligt visat att många VRI kan förebyggas genom övervakning och olika interventions program. Antimikrobiell resistens är vanligare vid VRI jämfört med samhällsförvärvade infektioner. Inom sjukhus ses högst andel av antibiotikaresistens på enheter med högst antibiotikaanvändning. Därför har denna studie fokuserat på dessa för VRI fundamentala och oskiljaktiga problemområden (VRI + antimikrobiella användningen och resistens). Målet är att genom kapacitetsuppbyggnad och kunskapsöverföring etablera hållbara övervakningsprogram för kontroll av VRI och skapa vårdhygieniska team och nätverk med uppgift att arbeta med förebyggande åtgärder i enlighet med nationella program ör infektionskontroll och riktlinjer för rationell antibiotikaanvändning. Den aktuella studien är den första studien av detta slag i landet och genomförs som en prospektiv interventionsstudie i tre faser vid Tikur Anbessa Universitetssjukhus i Addis Abeba, Etiopien. I fas 1 genomförs en observationell studie för att identifiera smittkällor och riskfaktorer för VRI, prevalens av antibiotikabehandling, bakteriella orsaker till identifierade fall av VRI och dess antimikrobiella resistensmönster. Kvalitativa metoder kommer att utnyttjas för att utvärdera kunskap och attityder rörande VRI hos vårdpersonal. I fas 2 kommer baserat på problem och brister identifierade under fas 1 en detaljerat protokoll för interventionen att utarbetas i avsikt att förbättra vårdhygieniska rutiner och antibiotikaanvändning samt öka både kunskapen och medvetenheten om VRI. Det europeiska nätverket för metodstandardisering (EUCAST), som har sina rötter i svenska RAF-M, spelar en nyckelroll för de mikrobiologiska metoderna. Ett utbildningsprogram baserat på europeiska smittskyddsmyndigheten (ECDC), WHO och svenska program för kontroll av VRI kommer därvid att utnyttjas. I fasen tre kommer vi att utvärdera effekterna av interventioner genom att upprepa undersökningar som genomförts i fas 1. Studien avser att öka medvetenhet, kompetens och kvalitet i det förebyggande arbetet av VRI och generera evidensbaserad rekommendationer för beslutsfattare för tidig upptäckt av VRI, kontroll av utbrottssituationer.

We will establish new large cohorts of school children and perform repeat studies in China (People's Republic of) to study trends in asthma, allergy and respiratory disease, and perform new studies in pre-school children and study the indoor environment in schools and day care centres. We will evaluate the biological properties (oxidative capacity) of airborne outdoor and indoor particles from different parts of China (People's Republic of). Moreover we will study effects of dietary pattern on asthma, allergy and respiratory disease in Chinese children, and study food allergy food intolerance, and study associations between phthalates and other hormone disrupting environmental contaminants in food, and asthma allergy and respiratory disease, by analysing urine levels of chemical contaminants. This will contribute to the knowledge and skill in environmental epidemiology in China (People's Republic of), especially with respect to the environment in schools and day care centres but also the home environment, and add new and important knowledge on risk factors for asthma, allergy, and respiratory disease in China (People's Republic of). Heading: Environmental and dietary studies in Chinese children There is a high level of outdoor air pollution in some parts of China (People's Republic of), due to coal burning, traffic exhausts, and industrial activities. This can influence the health of both adults and children. Since both adults and children spend about 90% of their life indoors, indoor pollution is also important. It has been estimated that globally, indoor air pollution is responsible for nearly 2 million excess deaths per year in developing countries, and for about 4% of the global burden of disease. Both indoor and outdoor air pollution has the strongest impact on the poorer part of the population, because higher exposure levels, and higher susceptibility due to higher exposure levels and poorer nutritional status. In China (People's Republic of), the building stock is rapidly increasing, and new building material, building techniques are introduced and there is an increase of energy use in buildings. This may have consequences for the indoor environment. Dietary pattern is changing, and there is evidence that the levels and chemical contamination of food products is significant and higher than in Europe. One important type of food contamination is by phthalates, bis-phenol A and other hormone disrupting chemicals. We have had co-operation with China (People's Republic of) (Shanxi University and Fudan University and others) since 1998 and we have published about 20 scientific articles together. The co-operation will give education within environmental medicine, environmental science and dietary aspects, with a focus on health studies in school and pre-school children. We will establish new large cohorts of school children and perform repeat studies in China (People's Republic of) to study trends in asthma, allergy and respiratory disease, and perform new studies in pre-school children and study the indoor environment in schools and day care centres.

The modes of collaboration include arranging methodological workshops, writing joint publications and performing pilot studies to prepare for joint applications. Social capital has emerged as a potential useful resource for health promoting strategies at individual as well as community level. However, there is a need to further explore what forms of social capital that are health enhancing (or damaging), and for which groups. There is also a need to deepen the understanding of the implications of the observed unequal access to individual social capital as well as the role of collective social capital for health in different contexts. In Sweden our studies so far have focused on self-rated health and health behavior and in Tanzania the focus has been on HIV/AIDS related risks. However, implementation of this knowledge in practice requires contextually relevant studies that can give practical guidance about the social processes that are involved in mobilizing social capital. We expect our joint research to be of relevance for locally designed health promotion strategies for different health outcomes and contribute to the theoretical framework of social capital that can be generalized globally. Socialt kapital står för våra sociala nätverk, vår tillgång till socialt stöd, våra möjligheter att vara delaktiga i samhällslivet och graden av social samhörighet i vår närmiljö.

The mangroves have undergone loss of forest cover and anthropogenic contamination due to land use changes, logging, diversion of rivers, and agricultural activities. Higher influx of both nutrients and various pollutants indicate their internal cycling and retention, and enhanced primary production. Sparse environmental data before the 1990s, and unknown long-term effects on the forests led us to propose an environmental impact study with researchers at University of Dar es Salaam. We will: 1) examine indicators of paleoenvironmental changes through variations in nutrient and pollutant fluxes, 2) apportion organic matter sources based on biomarkers and stable C and N isotopes, and 3) predict changes in ecological conditions as a result of aquatic temperature, pH, and salinity shifts through modeling. Temporal and spatial differences in nutrients and organic compounds will be assessed through intensive sampling, chronological assessment, geochemical analyses, flux estimates, and modeling. While the study will provide a baseline for future actions related to environmental mitigation, many aspects of the study can be extended to areas that have undergone similar changes. Finally, the joint research initiatives and collaboration will provide new insights, benefit exchange of students and scientists, improve existing research facilities, and transfer of technology. Mangroveträsk hör till jordens produktivaste ekosystem. Dessa områden spelar en stor roll för stabilisering av kusterna, för att fånga upp sediment och som yngelområden för fisk och skaldjur. I utvecklingsländerna har mangroveträd traditionellt använts för virke och taninproduktion, men stora områden med mangroveskogar tas nu i anspråk för jordbruks- och industriutveckling. Skogarna utsätts för stora påfrestningar genom överexploatering och miljöförstöring. Pä senare år har mangrove i Tanzania förändrats innebärande allvarliga miljömässiga problem. Skogen har förlorat sina skyddande grönska, anthropologisk förorening orsakad av förändringar i brukandet av land, skogsbruk, omdirigering av floder, landbruk och av människor orsakade anthropologiska förändringar.

The mangroves have undergone loss of forest cover and anthropogenic contamination due to land use changes, logging, diversion of rivers, and agricultural activities. Higher influx of both nutrients and various pollutants indicate their internal cycling and retention, and enhanced primary production. Sparse environmental data before the 1990s, and unknown long-term effects on the forests led us to propose an environmental impact study with researchers at University of Dar es Salaam. We will: 1) examine indicators of paleoenvironmental changes through variations in nutrient and pollutant fluxes, 2) apportion organic matter sources based on biomarkers and stable C and N isotopes, and 3) predict changes in ecological conditions as a result of aquatic temperature, pH, and salinity shifts through modeling. Temporal and spatial differences in nutrients and organic compounds will be assessed through intensive sampling, chronological assessment, geochemical analyses, flux estimates, and modeling. While the study will provide a baseline for future actions related to environmental mitigation, many aspects of the study can be extended to areas that have undergone similar changes. Finally, the joint research initiatives and collaboration will provide new insights, benefit exchange of students and scientists, improve existing research facilities, and transfer of technology. Mangroveträsk hör till jordens produktivaste ekosystem. Dessa områden spelar en stor roll för stabilisering av kusterna, för att fånga upp sediment och som yngelområden för fisk och skaldjur. I utvecklingsländerna har mangroveträd traditionellt använts för virke och taninproduktion, men stora områden med mangroveskogar tas nu i anspråk för jordbruks- och industriutveckling. Skogarna utsätts för stora påfrestningar genom överexploatering och miljöförstöring. Pä senare år har mangrove i Tanzania förändrats innebärande allvarliga miljömässiga problem. Skogen har förlorat sina skyddande grönska, anthropologisk förorening orsakad av förändringar i brukandet av land, skogsbruk, omdirigering av floder, landbruk och av människor orsakade anthropologiska förändringar. Inflöde av näringsämnen (och möjligen också organiska/oorganiska föroreningar) tyder på en hög primärproduktion, anhopning av organiskt material och ett internt kretslopp av näringsämnen.

Since about three years the Centre for Image Analysis at Uppsala University, CBA, the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing, C-DAC(T) and the Regional Cancer Centre, RCC, in Kerala, India are collaborating to develop an image analysis system for PAP-stained cell samples from cervical cancer screening so that early malignancy associated changes and atypical cells can be detected and used as a basis for a new kind of computer assisted screening device suitable for wide deployment in developing countries like India.

I hela världen dör årligen ungefär en kvarts miljon kvinnor i denna sjukdom trots att den går att nästan helt förhindra genom tidig upptäckt av cancerns förstadier genom granskning av cellprover från gynekologisk hälsokontroll. I Sverige och många andra västländer har man sedan 1960-talet erbjudit sådan hälsokontroll som mycket kraftigt minskat förekomsten av livmoderhalscancer. Granskningen är dock mycket personalkrävande och kräver välutbildad personal som i mikroskop känner igen de typiska cellförändringarna. Det man tittar efter är celler med förstorad, mer oregelbunden kärna med grövre kromatinteckning. Redan på 1950 talet påbörjade man försök att automatiskt granska dessa cellprover men problemet var svårare än man trott och det dröjde till millennieskiftet innan de första granskningsmaskinerna fanns på marknaden. Dessa maskiner är komplexa system med mycket känslig finmekanik och optik och omfattande specialbyggd elektronik och är därför alltför dyra och underhållskrävande för att kunna användas i de stora delar av världen där man ännu ej har möjlighet erbjuda någon gynekologisk hälsokontroll. I Indien pågår sedan ett par år tillbaka ett projekt med målsättningen att utveckla en granskningsutrustning anpassad för indiska förhållanden. Projektet drivs vid Centre for Development of Advanced Computing, C-DAC, i Thiruvananthapuram i Kerala i södra Indien med finansiering från indiska staten. Regional Cancer Centre för Kerala, RCC, står för cytologisk/medicinsk expertis. Eftersom vi i den sökandes forskningsgrupp har erfarenhet av forskning på detta område sedan 1973 med ett 50 tal internationella artiklar publicerade har vi inbjudits att samarbeta med det Indiska projektet. För att möjliggöra detta har vi fått ett litet projektstöd från Vinnova. En ytterligare grund för samarbete är vårt VR stödda projekt 2009-11 för att med hjälp av tredimensionell analys av cellkärnornas kromatinstruktur få fram en säkrare metod för att upptäcka de cellförändringar som är förknippade med cancerutveckling. Arbetet hittills har bedrivits relativt oberoende i Uppsala och Indien och har lett till lovande initiala resultat. Vid RCC i Indien provkör man för närvarande en prototyp som med nästan tillräcklig noggrannhet klarar att analysera prover, dock med en tidsåtgång som är åtminstone 10 gånger för stor för fullskalig användning. I Uppsala har vi fåt fram lovande resultat som visar att man skall kunna använda en detaljerad kromatinanalys för att se skillnad på ?friska? celler från friska personer och personer med cancerförstadier. För att komma vidare behöver vi nu arbeta närmare tillsammans för att integrera våra system. Detta kräver betydligt fler resor och samarbetskonferenser än vi har finansiering för i vårt befintliga projekt. Vi söker därför medel till detta genom denna ansökan. Vi planerar såväl utbyte av forskare och utvecklare under perioder på några veckor åt gången som gemensamma workshops och seminarier för att i detalj arbeta igenom metoder och utvärdera preliminära resultat. Vi kommer också att producera gemensamma publikationer där våra resultat dokumenteras. Vi kommer att testa det utvecklade integrerade systemet vid det regionala cancercentret i Kerala i Indien. Om det fungerar som avsett kommer det sedan att kunna användas vid en lång rad cancercentra runt om i Indien och efterhand i övriga världen. Ett system som kan hjälpa en operatör att avgöra om ett cellprov är friskt eller kan misstänkas peka på ett cancerförstadium skulle göra gynekologisk hälsokontroll tillgänglig i hela världen så att hundratusentals cancerfall kan upptäckas på så tidigt stadium att de är lätta att behandla istället för när de vuxit och spritt sig till dödlig form.

Without diagnostic tests health workers treat presumptively. In Uganda we have shown a majority of children dying from pneumonia had first been treated with malaria drugs. With poor access to quality public care, two thirds of febrile children in rural Uganda are treated from private drug shops, while drug resistance is mounting from excess use on the wrong indication. Point-of-care diagnostics for malaria and pneumonia and prepackaged quality drugs are now being introduced as Integrated Community Case Management (iCCM) through Community Health Workers to increase access. Meanwhile the private sector continues to see a majority of patients with poor quality and excess drug use. This project will assess effects of introducing diagnostics and promoting pediatric-dosage pre-packed drugs for acute febrile illnesses (malaria pneumonia diarrhoea) in private pharmacies in rural Uganda. Using a two-arm design comparing iCCM, to presumptive antimalarial treatment we evaluate the effect on appropriate and prompt treatment, quality of care, adherence and drug use. Household surveys, exit interviews, treatment register review and an adherence survey will be done, as well as qualitative interviews with parents and shopkeepers. Results will add to the meager evidence on private sector and inform ongoing Global Fund private sector interventions Nästan åtta miljoner barn dör i världen varje år före fem års ålder. Malaria, lunginflammation och diarre är de tre största dödsorsakerna, och visar sig som akut febersjukdom hos barn. Det finns effektiv behandling för att bota dessa barn, men i brist på tillgång till adekvat undersökning och diagnos får ofta barnen behandling för det både sjukvårdare o föräldrar är mest rädda för: malaria. Tyvärr visar det sig i våra studier från Uganda att barn som har lunginflammation även får malaria behandling, vilket leder till allvarlig sjukdom och död. Den offentliga sjukvården har vårdcentraler vilka ofta ligger 5 kilometer från hemmet. Dessutom saknar de ofta läkemedel. Istället har en stor privat sektor vuxit fram med privatapotek o kiosker, ofta hemma i byn. I våra studier från Uganda har två av tre barn fått behandling som föräldrarna köpt i privata sektorn. Tyvärr är det ofta fel medicin i dålig kvalitet och otillräcklig dos, och många gånger ges medicinen i onödan, speciellt malariatabletter och antibiotika. Detta är både kostsamt för familjen och leder till resistensutveckling. Och till att 10% av barnen dör före fem års ålder, två av tre på grund av botbara sjukdomar. Snabbtest för malaria har nu kommit. Tillsammans med ?äggklockor? för att äta andningsfrekvens som tecken på lunginflammation ger detta möjligheter att bättre diagnosticera barn, även hemma i byn. Byhälsovårdare utrustas nu med sådana diagnostika, och med dosförpackade mediciner mot malaria, lunginflammation och diarre i många länder i Afrika o Asien nu. Emellertid visar det sig att många föräldrar ändå fortsätter gå till privatapoteken, och på grund av läkemedelsbrist o utan betalning slutar många byhälsovårdare. Medans privatapoteken jobbar på? Vi vill nu testa om snabbtest, dosförpackade läkemedel, och information, så kallad ?social marketing? kan ge fler barn tillgång till snabbare och bättre vård via privatapotek i Uganda. Och om det samtidigt går att reducera onödig användning av mediciner. Vi kommer att göra en kontrollerad studie där vi jämför två distrikt, ungefär som två svenska landsting, där privatapotek får snabbest o dosförpackade läkemedel mot malaria, lunginflammation och diarre, med ett kontrolldistrikt där privatapoteken fortsätter som förut, det vill säga att sälja malariatabletter till föräldrar utan att först träffa eller diagnosticera barnet. Vi kommer att utvärdera projektet genom att mäta vårdsökande för sjuka barn före och efter projektet i både interventions och kontrolldistrikten, och jämföra förändringarna. VI kommer att mäta hur privatapoteken förskriver läkemedel, samt om föräldrarna ger hela doser som rekommenderat. Våra resultat kommer att peka på möjligheten att förbättra vård för barn genom dessa insatser, och är direkt relevanta för WHO och UNICEF, samt för Globala Fonden, som nu subventionerar effektiva malaria läkemedel till privata sektorn i nio Afrikanska länder, men inte vet hur introducera diagnostika eller annan behandling för att minska onödig, kostsam, och farlig övermedicinering, vilken även driver resistensutvecklingen.

Without diagnostic tests health workers treat presumptively. In Uganda we have shown a majority of children dying from pneumonia had first been treated with malaria drugs. With poor access to quality public care, two thirds of febrile children in rural Uganda are treated from private drug shops, while drug resistance is mounting from excess use on the wrong indication. Point-of-care diagnostics for malaria and pneumonia and prepackaged quality drugs are now being introduced as Integrated Community Case Management (iCCM) through Community Health Workers to increase access. Meanwhile the private sector continues to see a majority of patients with poor quality and excess drug use. This project will assess effects of introducing diagnostics and promoting pediatric-dosage pre-packed drugs for acute febrile illnesses (malaria pneumonia diarrhoea) in private pharmacies in rural Uganda. Using a two-arm design comparing iCCM, to presumptive antimalarial treatment we evaluate the effect on appropriate and prompt treatment, quality of care, adherence and drug use. Household surveys, exit interviews, treatment register review and an adherence survey will be done, as well as qualitative interviews with parents and shopkeepers. Results will add to the meager evidence on private sector and inform ongoing Global Fund private sector interventions Nästan åtta miljoner barn dör i världen varje år före fem års ålder. Malaria, lunginflammation och diarre är de tre största dödsorsakerna, och visar sig som akut febersjukdom hos barn. Det finns effektiv behandling för att bota dessa barn, men i brist på tillgång till adekvat undersökning och diagnos får ofta barnen behandling för det både sjukvårdare o föräldrar är mest rädda för: malaria. Tyvärr visar det sig i våra studier från Uganda att barn som har lunginflammation även får malaria behandling, vilket leder till allvarlig sjukdom och död. Den offentliga sjukvården har vårdcentraler vilka ofta ligger 5 kilometer från hemmet. Dessutom saknar de ofta läkemedel. Istället har en stor privat sektor vuxit fram med privatapotek o kiosker, ofta hemma i byn. I våra studier från Uganda har två av tre barn fått behandling som föräldrarna köpt i privata sektorn. Tyvärr är det ofta fel medicin i dålig kvalitet och otillräcklig dos, och många gånger ges medicinen i onödan, speciellt malariatabletter och antibiotika. Detta är både kostsamt för familjen och leder till resistensutveckling. Och till att 10% av barnen dör före fem års ålder, två av tre på grund av botbara sjukdomar. Snabbtest för malaria har nu kommit. Tillsammans med ?äggklockor? för att äta andningsfrekvens som tecken på lunginflammation ger detta möjligheter att bättre diagnosticera barn, även hemma i byn.

SFST involves an audiometer and trained personnel, which contributes to making services rare and costly. The Simplified Hearing Aid Rehabilitation (SHARE) provision method has been developed to reduce the need for audiometric tests, which potentially leads to cheaper and more accessible services. To increase the strategic knowledge-base for provision of hearing aids in low-income countries, the objective of this study is to determine the cost-effectiveness of SHARE by comparing its costs and effects on self-reported and audiometric outcomes with those of existing SFST. The study will apply a prospective, randomized, controlled, intention-to-treat research design with a random sample of 140 girls and boys with hearing impairments living in Dhaka division, Bangladesh. The experimental group will receive SHARE from trained community workers and the control group will receive SFST from existing providers. The findings will inform the development of low-cost hearing health systems. The study will also address the lack of knowledge about the importance of frequency specific tests in low-income countries. Access to hearing aids is a pre-requisite for health equity and enjoyment of human rights. Att nå de 97 procenten - en utvärdering av enklare hörapparatsförsörjning Målet med studien är att öka kunskapen om jämlik och kostnadseffektiv tillgång till hörapparater i låginkomstländer. Detta sker genom att jämföra kostnader för och effekter av två metoder för hörapparatsförsörjning. Den ena metoden innehåller obligatoriska hörseltester enligt Världshälsoorganisationens riktlinjer och är den som i begränsad utsträckning finns i Bangladesh idag. Enligt den andra metoden provar man en hörapparat i personernas hemmiljö utan behov av långa resor. Bara om användaren inte är nöjd går man vidare med hörseltester. De effekter som studeras är självupplevd nytta med hörapparater samt hörsel med hjälp av hörapparat. Kostnader som studeras är bland andra reskostnader, utprovningskostnader, hörapparatkostnader och inkomstbortfall. I utvecklingsländer har bara 3% av de som behöver hörapparater tillgång till sådana. Detta lämnar över 200 miljoner människor utan ett hjälpmedel som visat sig ha stor betydelse för hälsa, utbildning och arbete. Enligt FN-konventionen om rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsättning är det staters skyldighet att se till att alla som behöver hjälpmedel får tillgång till sådana och att de har råd med dem. Den nya kunskapen kan bidra till ökad tillgång till hörapparater i låginkomstländer. Ett enklare och billigare system för hörapparatsförsörjning, utan stora krav på utrustning och kompetens, kan inkluderas i närbaserade rehabiliteringsprogram som når ut på landsbygden.

Det har visat sig att en andel nyopererade män har samlag innan de har läkts, vilket leder till ökat risk för spridning av sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar till och från sin partner. Syftet med studien är att utvärdera effekten av en självhjälpsintervention via mobiltelefoni för att minska sexuellt riskbeteende under den postoperativa perioden för män som har kirurgiskt omskurits i Western Cape Province, Sydafrika. Den kommer att bestå av ett antal inspelade meddelanden som nyopererade män kan välja att få levererade till sina mobiltelefoner under läkningsperioden. Det primära utfallet av interventionens effekt är samlag under de första sex veckorna efter operationen. Studien har två faser; den första formativa fasen används kvalitativa metoder (fokusgrupper och kognitiva intervjuer) för att utveckla lämpliga meddelanden; den andra fasen används en randomiserad, kontrollerad design för att testa effekten av meddelanden på patienters sexuella beteenden. Om interventionen är effektiv, kommer det att ge många män och deras sexuella partner möjligheter för att undvika sexuellt samlag under de första sex veckorna efter omskärelse och därmed minska risken för infektioner såsom hiv. Interventionen är också en tidseffektiv strategi för vårdpersonal som kommer att få allt mindre tid med patienter under och efter deras operationer när manlig omskärelse blir allt vanligare i Sydafrika enligt statliga planer. I tre oberoende randomiserade, kontrollerade studier har kirurgiskt manlig omskärelse (MMC) visats kunna minska överförande av hiv från kvinnor till män med upp till 60%. Därför har en strategi utvecklats för att sprida MMC i tretton länder i östra och södra Afrika där hiv-prevalensen är hög och manlig omskärelse inte är utbrett. Efterfrågan är hög men det finns åtskilliga resurs-, organisations- och politiska problem som förhindrar det redan belastade offentliga systemet att svara på efterfrågan i dessa länder. Det finns även en viss oro att män som genomgår omskärelse kommer att tro att de är 100% skyddade från hiv, vilket kan komma att leda till ett ökat sexuellt riskbeteende bland dessa män. Det finns blandade bevis när det gäller denna möjliga effekt. Ett riskabelt beteende som har observerats i samband med MMC är män som återupptar samlag under den rekommenderade sexveckors läketiden efter ingreppet, vilket ökar risken överföring av sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar inklusive hiv till och från sin partner. Risken är särskilt hög för par där bara en är hivpositiv. Det finns ett behov av att utveckla en intervention som ger råd till nyopererade män om hur de kan vara sexuella aktiva utan att öka risken för sig själva och sina partner. Denna intervention får inte belasta vårdpersonalen utan levereras bäst genom röstmeddelande via mobiltelefoner. I Sydafrika används mobiltelefoni till nästan 100% bland befolkningen. Den Sydafrikanska staten har bestämt sig för att sprida MMC till alla provinser och hittills har över 135,000 operationer ägt rum. Ett problem är mänskliga resurser.

Malaria elimination has been proposed as potential target even in high endemic areas. Our project in Zanzibar was first to demonstrate the general potential of the new tools when used on large scale. We want to pursue this further, also developing new surveillance methods and targeted control strategies. We have identified obstacles, e.g. *hot spot areas* and asymptomatic parasite carriers as possible transmission reservoirs. We want to study this with a microepidemiological approach and evaluate a novel *screen and treat* strategy. New surveillance tools, PCR and serology based, will be introduced including evaluation of new molecular (LAMP) field applicable diagnostic tool. Malaria vector studies and mathematical modeling of malaria transmission/elimination will be added. Monitoring drug efficacy is critical. We have been involved in developing new molecular markers and in vivo assessment methodology. These will now be applied in longitudinal studies to study any evolution of tolerance/resistance to the ACT in use since 2003. Our project is expected to provide an answer to today´s potential for malaria elimination and its constraints and technologies/strategies to overcome such constraints as a unique case study for future malaria control in sub-Saharan Africa.

Our observations are built on data with known infection dates combined with ~20 years of cohort study period. In the current proposal, we outline studies focusing on comparing different HIV progressor groups (HIV-1 vs. HIV-D; HIV-1 vs. HIV-2; and HIV-2 normal vs. HIV-2 fast progressors) with respect to differences in i) cellular host factors, ii) immune response and iii) viral characteristics. There is a great need of increased in-depth knowledge on how virus properties and virus-host pathways are connected to the viral pathogenesis. Such knowledge would provide important information of clinical significance and on the HIV pathogenesis in general, that might be exploited in the discovery of novel prophylactic and therapeutic interventions against HIV. Det globala initiativet för att stoppa spridningen av HIV/AIDS omfattar utveckling av nya profylaktiska och terapeutiska strategier mot HIV, och i slutändan utvecklingen av ett effektivt HIV-1 vaccin. Ett vaccin är en långsiktig investering ur både ett vetenskapligt perspektiv och globalt hälsoperspektiv, vilket även var fallet med poliovaccinet som utvecklades efter årtionden av forskning. Den centrala frågan för att utveckla ett HIV-1-vaccin är att förbättra den skyddande effekten hos vaccinet. För att uppnå detta mål är det avgörande att få en bättre förståelse av immunförsvarets skyddande potential mot HIV-infektion. Ny kunskap och viktiga insikter angående HIV-1 patogenes har uppnåtts genom studier av en minoritet av HIV-1 infekterade individer som kan kontrollera sin infektion bättre än majoriteten av HIV-1 infekterade. I vårt forskningsprogram föreslår vi studier av ytterligare grupper av HIV-infekterade som uppvisar kontrollerad infektion och långsam sjukdomsutveckling, nämligen de med HIV-2 infektion och de med både HIV-1/HIV-2 infektion. HIV-2 utgör en viktig modell för en mindre aggressiv form av HIV-infektion. Det långsammare sjukdomsförloppet utgör normen för majoriteten av HIV-2 infekterade individer och står i kontrast till HIV-1, där enbart en minoritet uppvisare ett långsamt sjukdomsförlopp. Således ger HIV-2 infektion i sig en möjlighet att jämföra olika grupper av HIV infekterade: de med snabb respektive långsam sjukdomsutveckling, men även HIV-2-inverkan på HIV-1-infektion. Studier på dessa grupper bör inte förbises, eftersom de kan bidra med viktig information om virus-värd interaktioner och avslöja mekanismer som kan visa sig vara av stort värde för utformningen av terapeutiska strategier och HIV-1 vaccinkandidater. Våra senaste resultat tyder på att HIV-2 kan utgöra en viktig modell för nya insikter i de mekanismerna som är ansvariga för långsam sjukdomensutveckling och viral kontroll. Vårt forskningsprogram bygger på två viktiga fynd, där vi 1) identifierade individer med både HIV-1/HIV-2 infektion (HIV-D) som en ny grupp av långsamma sjukdomsutvecklare som kan kontrollera sin HIV-1-infektion på ett sätt som inte syns i det normala HIV-1 infekterade fallet, och 2) identifierade ett stort antal HIV-2 infekterade individer som har snabb eller långsam sjukdomsutveckling. Våra observationer är byggda på seroincidenta (känd tid för infektion) individer i kombination med långa uppföljningstider (ca. 20 års tid i en kohort från Guinea-Bissau, Västafrika). I vårt forskningsprogram föreslår vi studier av virus-värd interaktioner som kan leda till identifiering av nya mekanismer som orsakar långsam sjukdomsutveckling. Vi fokuserar på att jämföra olika HIV grupper (nämligen HIV-1 mot HIV-D, HIV-1 mot HIV-2, och HIV-2 normala jämfört med HIV-2 med snabb sjukdomsutveckling) med avseende på skillnader av i) cellulära värdfaktorer, ii) immunsvar, och iii) virala egenskaper. Dessa studier är möjliga eftersom vår kohort innehåller dessa olika grupper som annars är svåra att studera. Det finns ett stort behov av ökad och fördjupad kunskap om hur virusegenskaper och virus-värdinteraktioner är kopplade till HIV patogenes. Denna nya kunskap skulle kunna utnyttjas i utvecklingen av nya profylaktiska och terapeutiska strategier mot HIV infektion. Vi tror att studier av olika grupper av HIV med avseende på sjukdomsutveckling kommer att utgöra en viktig väg för att uppnå dessa mål.

Our observations are built on data with known infection dates combined with ~20 years of cohort study period. In the current proposal, we outline studies focusing on comparing different HIV progressor groups (HIV-1 vs. HIV-D; HIV-1 vs. HIV-2; and HIV-2 normal vs. HIV-2 fast progressors) with respect to differences in i) cellular host factors, ii) immune response and iii) viral characteristics. There is a great need of increased in-depth knowledge on how virus properties and virus-host pathways are connected to the viral pathogenesis. Such knowledge would provide important information of clinical significance and on the HIV pathogenesis in general, that might be exploited in the discovery of novel prophylactic and therapeutic interventions against HIV. Det globala initiativet för att stoppa spridningen av HIV/AIDS omfattar utveckling av nya profylaktiska och terapeutiska strategier mot HIV, och i slutändan utvecklingen av ett effektivt HIV-1 vaccin. Ett vaccin är en långsiktig investering ur både ett vetenskapligt perspektiv och globalt hälsoperspektiv, vilket även var fallet med poliovaccinet som utvecklades efter årtionden av forskning. Den centrala frågan för att utveckla ett HIV-1-vaccin är att förbättra den skyddande effekten hos vaccinet. För att uppnå detta mål är det avgörande att få en bättre förståelse av immunförsvarets skyddande potential mot HIV-infektion. Ny kunskap och viktiga insikter angående HIV-1 patogenes har uppnåtts genom studier av en minoritet av HIV-1 infekterade individer som kan kontrollera sin infektion bättre än majoriteten av HIV-1 infekterade.

Understanding how the extensive genetic polymorphism of the parasite affects the acquisition and maintenance of immunity is a prerequisite for the development of efficacious control tools such as vaccines. In our previous studies, we have shown that persistent asymptomatic multiclonal infections predict a reduced risk of disease in high transmission settings. The aim of this project is to further establish how the genetic diversity of P. falciparum infections affects protective immunity to malaria. We will investigate polymorphisms in P. falciparum antigen genes, i.e. genes under immune selection, in individuals with different levels of exposure and immunity both within and between geographical areas, and identify potential ?hotspots? of transmission. The genetic diversity of P. falciparum infections will be related to the breadth and magnitude of antibody responses directed to a panel of several P. falciparum antigens. The longevity of immune responses (antimalarial antibody and memory B cell responses) will be studied. The project includes well defined and closely monitored cohorts living in areas of different transmission in Kenya, Tanzania and Mali, as well as Swedish travellers who experience malaria for the first time. The project will contribute to the understanding of the molecular epidemiology of P. falciparum and the acquisition and maintenance of protective immunity against malaria. Immunförsvaret mot malaria: betydelsen av parasitens stora genetiska mångfald Malaria är ett av de stora globala hälsoproblemen. I Afrika söder om Sahara drabbas främst barn under fem års ålder innan de gradvis blir immuna efter upprepade infektioner. Immunitet är dock inte fullständig och många är bärare av parasiter utan att vara sjuka. Svårigheten med att utveckla ett vaccin mot malaria är att malariaparasiten Plasmodium falciparum består av oerhört många olika stammar som skiljer sig genetiskt. Tiden som behövs för att bli immun bedöms vara beroende av behovet att träffat på olika stammar. Vår forskning har visat att antalet stammar som friska bärare i ett malariaomåde är infekterade med är ett mått på immunitet och vår hypotes är att förekomsten av flera stammar i blodet underhåller bredare och mer effektiva antikroppsvar som skyddar mot att bli sjuk i malaria. Vi tror även att förekomsten av parasiter i blodet underhåller annars relativt kortlivade immunsvar. Målet med detta projekt är att studera hur olika P. falciparum stammar sprids och hur förekomsten av olika stammar påverkar olika immunsvar hos värden. Studierna utförs i områden med olika malariatransmission i Tanzania, Kenya och Mali samt resenärer som diagnostiserats med malaria i Sverige. Plasmodium falciparum infektioner kommer att typas genetiskt utifrån ett antigen som är en potentiell vaccinkomponent. Antalet och typen av stammar kommer att korreleras till individers ålder och sjuklighet i malaria, var de bor enligt GPS-koordinat, samt hur mycket malaria som sprids i området. Detta kommer att kunna visa hur stammar sprids vid olika mycket transmission samt i detalj identifera om infektioner sprids mer i vissa delar av en by vilket kan bidra till möjligheter att bättre bekämpa infektionen. Vidare kommer antikroppssvar mot olika antigen att analyseras i förhållande till antalet stammar samt skydd mot malaria. Hos de svenska resenärerna har vi även möjlighet att studera hur breda och långlivade immunsvar som uppnås efter endast en infektion. Det övergripande målet med projektet är att bidra till ett vaccin mot malaria; och specifikt antalet stammar som bör ingå i ett vaccin och även hur immuniteten ska bibehållas utifrån olika nivåer av transmission. Resultaten kommer även att bidra till förståelsen för hur infektion sprids och därmed möjliggöra riktad och bättre bekämpning av malaria.

Antibiotic efficacy displays a biphasic course in TB, with a rapid reduction in bacterial load followed by a steady-state phase due to antibiotic-tolerant bacteria. Our data show that macrophage immunity causes Mtb to reduce replication, making it tolerant towards antibiotics. We will investigate our idea that immunosuppressive (IS) treatment given to macrophages prevents them from triggering Mtb-tolerance. Hypotheses: 1) Latent TB infection is maintained by macrophages causing increased tolerance towards antibiotics. 2) IL-1â and TNF-á stimulate antimycobacterial functions of the macrophage, including autophagy antimicrobial peptides and NO. 3) IS of macrophages results in antibiotics-sensitive Mtb, thus a combination of IS and antibiotics accelerates microbial clearance. We will define how Mtb alters when exposed to macrophage immunity and what host factors trigger phenotypic shift. We will use our unique TB-models with state-of-the art techniques to evaluate how macrophages are optimally modulated to kill bacteria in combination with antibiotics. Identified candidate drugs will be further explored in other models. The unique goal of the present bench-to-bedside project is to identify a strategy for combination therapy based on existing drugs that reduces the time required for TB treatment, thus minimizing drug resistance. Tuberkelbakterien, bakterien som orsakar tuberkulos (tbc), är fortfarande ett globalt hälsoproblem, trots att den har varit känd i över hundra år. Bakterien skördar 1,6 miljoner människoliv årligen, främst i låginkomstländer, och AIDS-epidemin som ger ett försämrat immunförsvar hos den drabbade, bidrar till spridning och ökad dödlighet av tbc. De senare årens larmrapporter om antibiotikaresistent tbc, mot vilken inga kända mediciner hjälper, gör sjukdomen till ett globalt hot. Tuberkelbakterien överlever inuti vita blodkroppar (immunceller) som finns i lungan. Dessa celler har normalt förmåga att avdöda bakterier, men denna förmåga hämmas av tuberkelbakterien. Bakterierna kan dels föröka sig inne i sina värdceller, men också övergå i ett vilande (latent) tillstånd, som gör att en infekterad individ kan bära på infektionen under många år. Detta latenta tillstånd hos bakterien gör den otillgänglig för behandling med antibiotika, vilket medför att patienter med tuberkulos måste behandlas under mer än ett halvår. Svårigheter att följa den rekommenderade behandlingen har gjort att nya, antibiotikaresistenta bakteriestammar ständigt uppstår. Ett viktigt forskningsmål idag är, förutom utveckling av ett effektivt vaccin, att finna möjligheter att förkorta behandlingstiden. En effektivare och på så sätt billigare och säkrare behandling skulle inte bara minska risken för utveckling av antibiotikaresistens, utan också på sikt kunna möjliggöra att sjukdomen utrotas. Målet med det planerade projektet är att öka kunskapen om mekanismerna bakom uppkomsten av tuberkelbakteriens vilotillstånd och att använda denna kunskap för att identifiera nya sätt att behandla tuberkulos. Forskningen bygger på experimentell infektion av vita blodkroppar med tuberkelbakterier, som genomförs på ett sätt så att man får fram den vilande formen av bakterien inuti cellerna. Sedan kan man med hjälp av mikroskopi och andra relevanta metoder undersöka hur bakterien träder in i vilostadiet och hur den kan väckas ur det vilande stadiet. Växelverkan mellan den infekterade blodkroppen och bakterien är en dynamisk process, där den ena eller den andra parten kan få övertaget. Genom att de båda aktörerna studeras samtidigt, ökas kunskapen om cellens egen förmåga att kontrollera eller förgöra tuberkelbakterierna. En unik metod som används inom projektets ramar kommer att underlätta sökandet efter kombinationer av läkemedel som kan påverka samspelet mellan bakterien och infekterade vita blodkroppar, och på så sätt hitta nyua sätt att effektivt behandla tuberkulos. Sammanfattningsvis kan sägas att projektet kommer att öka kunskapen om infektionsmekanismerna bakom tuberkulos och undersöka hur denna kunska kan användas för att möjliggöra effektivare behandling, som kan vara ett led i kampen mot det globala hälsoproblem som sjukdomen idag utgör.

Also to study outcome of post abortion contraceptive counselling by MLPs as well as decision-making related to induced abortion. The long-term goal is to provide evidence-based information for policy development regarding post abortion care including effective contraceptive counselling to reduce maternal mortality in Kenya but also in other similar settings. One RCT (880 women), one follow-up interview study (400 women), and one qualitative study (10-20 women and partners) are planned. Women seeking treatment for incomplete spontaneous or induced abortion at Nyanza Provincial Hospital in Kisumu are included. The main outcome is complete abortion and adherence to the chosen contraceptive method. The collaboration will be in form of seminars and workshops in Sweden and in Kenya involving researchers and PhD students from both countries in order to plan and implement the project. Results will be disseminated to clinicians, policy makers and other researchers in Sweden, Kenya and elsewhere through workshops and international collaborative publications. The outcome of the project, apart from evidence-based knowledge that can reduce maternal morbidity and mortality, will be academic capacity building and long-term collaboration between Swedish and Kenyan researchers and institutions. Bakgrund: Ca 20 miljoner illegala aborter utförs i världen varje år. Följderna av dessa ofta osäkra aborter dödar årligen ca 70 000 kvinnor och är därmed en av de vanligaste dödsorsakerna bland kvinnor i fertil ålder. För att minska dödligheten och sjukligheten i relation till oönskade graviditeter finns rekommendationer att utbilda så kallade ?Mid Level Providers? (MLP). Exempel på MLP är barnmorskor och sjuksköterskor. Med deras hjälp vill man öka tillgängligheten till och kvalitén på abortvården. Det vill säga behandling av ofullständig abort och komplikationer uppkomna efter såväl illegal abort som missfall. Globalt sett finns många fler barnmorskor och sjuksköterskor än läkare. MLP:s styrka är att de, förutom antalet, är mer lättillgängliga för kvinnorna. Tidigare internationella studier visar att MLP kan utföra säker kirurgisk abort vid tidig graviditet och även ge behandling vid ofullständig abort, vilket är en vanlig komplikation vid både missfall och illegal abort. Internationellt används misoprostol (abortpiller) vid medicinsk abort och behandling av ofullständig abort vilket i studier har visat sig vara en billig, skonsam och effektiv metod. Att även involvera MLP:s vid användning av misoprostol skulle öka kvinnors tillgänglighet till säker behandling av ofullständig abort. Inga tidigare studier har jämfört utfallet om MLP eller läkare utför behandling vid ofullständig abort. Som ett led i att minska abortrelaterad dödlighet och sjuklighet bland kvinnor världen över är dessutom tillgång till preventivmedel och preventivmedelsrådgivning centralt. Även här kan MLP, med rätt utbildning, ta ett större ansvar. Projektet genomförs i Kisumu i västra Kenya där preventivmedelsanvändningen är låg och antalet oönskade graviditeter med åtföljande osäkra aborter är högt. Det finns en stor medvetenhet bland forskare och politiker i Kenya om de hälsofrågor som studeras i projektet. Rätten till framkallad abort är relativt begränsad i Kenya men en ny konstitution har antagits. I denna har möjligheten till legal abort inkluderats och lokala forskare och policy makers som deltagit i utvecklingen av projektet bedömer detta som helt genomförbart och dessutom nödvändigt för att hitta metoder för att minska den höga mödradödligheten i landet. Syfte och metod: För att utvärdera effektivitet och säkerhet av att MLP genomför kirurgisk abort alternativt administrerar misoprostol som behandling vid ofullständig abort jämfört med läkare, genomförs en randomiserad kontrollerad studie (patienterna fördelas slumpmässigt mellan vårdgivarna) (Studie I). För att analysera preventivmedelsanvändning bland kvinnor som erhållit preventivmedelsrådgivning av MLP efter genomförd behandling i studie 1 kommer uppföljning att ske vid återbesök efter 3 samt 6 månader (Studie II). Vidare kommer kvalitativa intervjuer att genomföras för att ge en djupare förståelse för kvinnors och deras partners beslutsfattande i relation till abort (Studie III). Genomförande: Kvinnor som söker vård för ofullständig abort på Kisumu Provincial hospital, lottas till att bli behandlade av MLP eller läkare. Utfallen som analyseras är fullständig abort utan komplikation (studie I) samt val av preventivmedelsmetod och användning av den valda metoden (Studie II). I studie I identifieras unga kvinnor, som medger att de försökt genomföra en abort, samt deras partner för att medverka i individuella intervjuer (Studie III). Betydelse: Vinsten med projektet är att ta fram evidensbaserad information för att säkerställa en hög vårdkvalitet genom att involvera MLP:s och på så sätt öka kvinnors tillgänglighet till säker behandling av ofullständig abort samt adekvat preventivmedelsrådgivning. Resultatet av studierna kan komma att bidra till minskad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet dels genom att förebygga oönskade graviditeter och därmed skador och komplikationer av osäkert utförda aborter dels genom utveckling av bättre tillgång till säker vård efter abort.

Natural product analogues will be synthesized for exploration of their SAR. Target molecules of the antimalarial constituents will be identified utilizing sing S. cerevisiae gene deletion libraries and RNAi screens in cultured mammalian cells. The cellular interaction sites of the natural products will be studied by high resolution NMR spectroscopic techniques. Since resistance to natural remedies consisting of mixtures of active compounds almost never develops in Plasmodium, we expect to be able to identify from each plant extract several constituents with different modes of action in the cell. We anticipate reaching a major breakthrough in the development of resistance-free treatments. Expected outcomes are (a) standardized methods for the traditional preparation of indigenous malaria medicines with expected supportive effects on the local cottage industry and economic development as well as preserved low cost therapy, (b) novel leads and (c) target biochemical pathways for the development of modern malaria medicines, and (d) an improved understanding of resistance in malaria. Nya malariamedel från afrikanska naturläkemedel Malaria är en allvarlig sjukdom som är mycket utbredd i tropiska och subtropiska länder, framför allt i Afrika. Genom historien tros ungefär halva mänskligheten ha dött av malaria, och trots förebyggande åtgärder och intensiv läkemedelsforskning förorsakar den fortfarande ungefär 800 000 dödsfall årligen. Vid sidan av allt lidande bidrar sjukdomen starkt till fattigdomen i Afrika. Trots försök att använda de modernaste teknikerna (vaccinutveckling, kombinatorisk kemi, karläggning av parasitens DNA) har inga nya läkemedel utvecklats på många år, medan parasiten har utvecklat resistens mot alla existerande läkemedel. Ett ytterligare problem är att de moderna läkemedlen, med sina höga utvecklingskostnader, oftast inte är tillgängliga för dem som mest skulle behöva dem, pga deras höga pris. Som konsekvens av resistensutveckling och brist på billig och effektiv medicinering är risken för en ökning av malariafallen överhängande. I detta projekt samarbetar en kenyansk och två svenska forskargrupper för att utvärdera naturmediciner som används mot malaria i östra Afrika. Preliminära tester visar att några av dessa är aktiva och några toxiska, medan andra fungerar även mot de parasiter som är resistenta mot de flesta läkemedel som är tillgängliga idag. I detta projekt kommer vi att beskriva metoder för framställning av naturläkemedel mot malaria, föreslå metoder för att snabbt kontrollera sådana blandningar för sitt innehåll av de viktiga substanserna, samt för rester av toxiska ämnen. Substanserna med antimalariaaktivitet kommer att undersökas både kemiskt och biologiskt för att förstå deras verkningsmekanismer. Vi kommer att studera potentialen för utveckling av läkemedel mot malaria som har lägre risk för resistensutveckling samt möjligheterna att förstärka deras effekt genom små strukturförändringar. Arbetet förväntas att bidra till en högre patientsäkerhet i Afrika genom standardisering av läkemedelstillverkning och kvalitetsanalys. Projektet har hög potential för identifiering av nya substanser som kan vidareutvecklas till morgondagens malarialäkemedel.

Vidare förändras snabbt den politiska situationen i regionen med revolution i Egypten och delningen av Sudan.

Four LLS cases will be carried out in each country focusing on the development of specific capabilities within science, math´s, languages and crafts and will function as a strategy for a research based, *bottom up* school development. The design contains a cyclical process of planning, analysis and revision of a lesson and is documented. Meta-analysis will focus on prerequisites and barriers for the LLS as a part of school development. The research processes are continuously discussed and analyzed at joint workshops twice a year. In-between ITC-collaboration will be used: sharing *research lessons*, work processes and results. Expected outcome are concrete development work in the form of *research lessons*, joint articles and cross-school teacher networks but also general knowledge on content and goals, students´ learning, teaching difficulties and design of teaching. Lesson/Learning Study in a transnational space as in this project engages with ideas that flow from different cultural settings than those prevailed in the context of origin and will shed further light on some of the critical issues within the research area i.e. the sustainability outside the collaborative organizational culture to be found in East Asian countries. Skolutveckling genom lärarforskning - en komparativ studie om Lesson och Learning Studies i Sverige och Tanzania Det övergripande syftet med det här projektet är att genom lärarforskning testa och vidareutveckla vad som kallas Lesson/Learning Study (LLS) som modell för skolutveckling; utveckling och förbättring av undervisningen och lärandet och därmed ökad måluppfyllelse. Forskningsprojektet bygger på forskarnas omfattande erfarenheter av klassrumsbaserad forskning och ett intresse för kunskap, lärande, undervisning och bedömning i olika pedagogiska miljöer från skola till universitet samt skolutveckling och lärares professionella utveckling. Lesson Study har sina rötter i det japanska skolsystemet och beskrivs som en lokal skolutveckling. Learning Study i sin tur kombinerar Lesson Study traditionen och Design and Development Research. För att upptäcka särdrag som gör skillnad för elevernas lärande används variationsteori. För och efter testning av elevernas kunskaper, forskares och lärares samarbete och begreppen lärandeobjekt och kritiska aspekter är några kännetecken. I det här projektet används termen Lesson/Learning Study för att visa på att utgångspunkt är Lesson Study traditionen men att element från Learning Study lånas; begreppet lärandeobjekt, elevtesterna och forskarnas starkare medverkan. Projektet organiseras kring fyra LLS-fall i varje land (Sverige & Tanzania) med fokus på utvecklingen av specifika förmågor inom ämnesområdena naturvetenskap, matematik, språk och slöjd som en strategi för en forskningsbaserad *bottom-up* skolutveckling. Uppläggningen följer en cyklisk process av planering, analys, och revidering av en lektion. Lärare och forskare väljer gemensamt vilka förmågor (lärandeobjekt) som eleverna ska uppnå. Utgångspunkt utgörs av vad lärare erfar att elever har svårt med. Forskningslektionen planeras och en av deltagande lärare genomför lektionen.

Four LLS cases will be carried out in each country focusing on the development of specific capabilities within science, math´s, languages and crafts and will function as a strategy for a research based, *bottom up* school development. The design contains a cyclical process of planning, analysis and revision of a lesson and is documented. Meta-analysis will focus on prerequisites and barriers for the LLS as a part of school development. The research processes are continuously discussed and analyzed at joint workshops twice a year. In-between ITC-collaboration will be used: sharing *research lessons*, work processes and results. Expected outcome are concrete development work in the form of *research lessons*, joint articles and cross-school teacher networks but also general knowledge on content and goals, students´ learning, teaching difficulties and design of teaching. Lesson/Learning Study in a transnational space as in this project engages with ideas that flow from different cultural settings than those prevailed in the context of origin and will shed further light on some of the critical issues within the research area i.e. the sustainability outside the collaborative organizational culture to be found in East Asian countries. Skolutveckling genom lärarforskning - en komparativ studie om Lesson och Learning Studies i Sverige och Tanzania Det övergripande syftet med det här projektet är att genom lärarforskning testa och vidareutveckla vad som kallas Lesson/Learning Study (LLS) som modell för skolutveckling; utveckling och förbättring av undervisningen och lärandet och därmed ökad måluppfyllelse. Forskningsprojektet bygger på forskarnas omfattande erfarenheter av klassrumsbaserad forskning och ett intresse för kunskap, lärande, undervisning och bedömning i olika pedagogiska miljöer från skola till universitet samt skolutveckling och lärares professionella utveckling. Lesson Study har sina rötter i det japanska skolsystemet och beskrivs som en lokal skolutveckling. Learning Study i sin tur kombinerar Lesson Study traditionen och Design and Development Research. För att upptäcka särdrag som gör skillnad för elevernas lärande används variationsteori. För och efter testning av elevernas kunskaper, forskares och lärares samarbete och begreppen lärandeobjekt och kritiska aspekter är några kännetecken. I det här projektet används termen Lesson/Learning Study för att visa på att utgångspunkt är Lesson Study traditionen men att element från Learning Study lånas; begreppet lärandeobjekt, elevtesterna och forskarnas starkare medverkan. Projektet organiseras kring fyra LLS-fall i varje land (Sverige & Tanzania) med fokus på utvecklingen av specifika förmågor inom ämnesområdena naturvetenskap, matematik, språk och slöjd som en strategi för en forskningsbaserad *bottom-up* skolutveckling. Uppläggningen följer en cyklisk process av planering, analys, och revidering av en lektion. Lärare och forskare väljer gemensamt vilka förmågor (lärandeobjekt) som eleverna ska uppnå. Utgångspunkt utgörs av vad lärare erfar att elever har svårt med. Forskningslektionen planeras och en av deltagande lärare genomför lektionen. Den dokumenterade lektionen och elevresultat analyseras som grund för en reviderad forskningslektion, osv i tre till fyra cykler. LLS-cyklerna av följs utveckling av former för dokumentation och kunskapsspridning. Vidare genomförs en metastudie där dokumentationen från fallstudierna analyseras i syfte att beskriva hur kunskapen från dem kan belysa förutsättningar och hinder för att LLS ska kunna bli en del av skolutvecklingen.

Collaboration with Umeå University in Sweden will foster this process, providing additional external expertise as well as professional development opportunities for the Tigrean team. This will take place as the Millennium Development Goals reach their conclusion in 2015 and the global community possibly sets new targets for key health outcomes. Specifically, this collaboration will address four key areas of health in Tigray: 1. implementing bottom-up approaches to measuring maternal, newborn and child mortality 2. evaluating malaria control strategies through a health systems lens 3. monitoring the effectiveness of the new Health Extension Worker and Family Folder programmes on monitoring population health 4. assessing progress towards MDG outcomes from a health equity perspective. The significance of the collaboration is twofold. Firstly it will contribute directly to health in Tigray, since the close partnership between the University and the Health Bureau ensures that evidence-based findings can readily be translated into policy decisions. Secondly it will create an on-going culture of practical research in the Region, which will provide a long-term basis for evidence-based health care delivery.

Besides of the largest iron ore reserves, Carajás also comprises another several international class deposits, such as Cu-Au, Au, Ni, Mn and PGE. Besides of a well known geological and metallogenetic context, data on the mafic-ultramafic rocks (MUM) are still very limited and prevent a better comprehension of the evolution of the Carajás region. Recent mineral exploration projects developed by VALE Mining Company and scientific research conducted by the applicant group have already indicated that there are different MUM associations within the Province, probably with distinct ages and metallogenetic affinity. Hence, this collaborative project aims at understanding the nature and evolution of this voluminous magmatism and associated mineral deposits through mineral trace element and isotope compositions of different igneous layered intrusions and, consequently, providing an improved geological-metallogenetic scenario for the Carajás Province. The research project will promote the cooperation among Swedish and Brazilian researchers in both field and laboratory work, using several advanced micro-analytical techniques, thus consolidating the international cooperation among these groups. The results obtained throughout this project will provide remarkable and innovative tools to support mineral exploration, especially in deposits associated with MUM magmatism. Carajás Mineral Province, Brasilien, är en av de största källorna till metaller i världen. Det ligger i sydöstra delen av Amazon regionen och är till största delen formad av gammal vulkanisk och sedimäntär sten, så gammal som 2.8 Ga. Förrutom de stora malm depositionerna, hittar man viktiga fyndigheter av Cu, Ni, Au, Pt Group Elements, Cr och Mn. Stora järn och koppar-guld fyndigheter bryts för närvarande i Carajás, så investeringar för att hitta nya fyndigheter är ytterst viktiga. Av den anledningen behöver man utnyttja inte bara konventionella geokemiska och geofysiska metoder utan också utreda hur malmrika stenar formas och vad som leder till metallinnehåll.Med denna ansökan vill vi undersöka spårämnen och isotop innehåll för olika magmatiska skiktade intrång i Carajás Mineral provins, för att se potentialen för att de innehåller nya metall avlagringar. Den kemiska sammansättningen av hela sten prover och deras Hf-O isotop sammansättning kan ge anmärkningsvärda verktyg för brytnings strategin i Carajás Province. Den här studien kräver dock flera sofistikerade analytiska tekniker som bara delvis finns i Brasilien. Speciellt undersökningen av O isotopsammansättningen i silikatmineral kan inte utföras på isotop laboratorierna i Brasilien, men kan utföras på NORDSIM som finns på Naturhistoriska riksmuseet i Sverige ,som är värdar för en av den mest framstående laboratorier för jon mikrosonder i världen.Därför kommer detta internationella samarbete forskningsprogram vara av stort intresse för båda parter, eftersom det kommer att möjliggöra utbyte av geologiska och analytisk kunskap mellan de brasilianska och svenska forskare som deltar i projektet.

Although agricultural crops are being used for the production of biofuels since some years, it has led to a strong concern for competition with food production. To make the production of non-food products sustainable and economical, use can be made of agriculture- and forestry residues and wastes as feedstocks for production of biofuels along with other valuable chemicals or materials. The proposal concerns a collaborative project between University of Lund, Sweden, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang, Malaysia, and Hanoi National University of Education in Vietnam, to develop a biorefinery based on rice straw, which is produced in enormous quantities in many parts of the world, especially Asia, and is burnt leading to environmental pollution. In this project, methods for hydrolyzing the cellulose component of rice will be developed and the released glucose will be converted to biopolyester using bacteria from mangroves. The fermentation residues will be converted to biogas as energy carrier. The biopolyester will also be blended with hemicellulose fraction to form composites. The project will involve exchange of scientists and students, and seminars and workshops in Malaysia and Vietnam. Mankind has become highly dependent on fossil resources for its need for energy and materials used in everyday life. With increasing demands of the growing human population, especially in developing economies, there is a strong concern that fossil resources will sooner or later come to an end. This has led to a global interest in finding alternative sources that are renewable and easily accessible in the region of interest. The other problem that motivates a shift from fossil resources is the negative environmental impact of the products in terms of greenhouse gas emissions, global warming and climate change. Fossil energy and -plastics are among the most environmentally damaging products used in enormous amounts. Large amounts of plastic wastes are collected in the landfills and oceans, creating a major threat to the land and marine ecosystems. During the past couple of decades, there has been increasing development towards the use of plant biomass as feedstock for biofuels, biomaterials and other products. The first generation of biofuels is currently produced from agricultural crops - ethanol from sugar cane or corn, and biodiesel from soybean, rapeseed or palm oil depending on the geographical location. These biofuels meet only a small fraction of the global fuel demand and are highly subsidized. They have furthermore raised some critical social and ecological issues - they compete with food for the feedstock and the land used for growing the crop. Diverting the crops for biofuel production is seen as an important factor underlying the drastic increase in food costs during 2008. For future production of bioenergy, a holistic approach needs to be taken so that both food and bioenergy are produced in a sustainable manner especially in developing countries where production of crops suffers from prevalent poor soil conditions and insufficient availability of water. Biofuel production needs further to be combined with the production of other valuable materials in a biorefinery so as to make the operation economical. The ideal feedstock for biofuels is considered to be the agricultural- and forestry by-products and wastes accumulated in abundance and with low or no profit and -nutritional value. Rice straw, wheat straw, bagasse and corn stover are the major farm residues generated in developing countries. Rice is a staple diet for a large part of the global population in a number of countries. Over 700 million tonnes of rice straw is produced worldwide, mostly in Asia and while some straw is used as animal feed, much of it is currently burned in the fields leading to environmental pollution. Production of valuable compounds will add value to this enormous resource providing extra income to the farmers and at the same time reducing the environmental burden. This project proposal is to apply for funds for collaborative exchange between universities in Sweden, Malaysia and Viet Nam, with an aim is to develop a biorefinery around rice straw. The products within the scope of the project are biogas as an energy carrier and biodegradable plastics that can replace the petroleum based plastics. Industrial biotechnology, based on microorganisms and their enzymes, will be used for sustainable conversion of the rice straw to these products. Enzymatic tools will be developed and used for mild and selective hydrolysis of lignocellulosic straw material. Production of bioplastics will be investigated using the bacteria isolated from mangroves in Vietnam. Furthermore, anaerobic digestion of the straw will be optimized for production of biogas, which can potentially be used for heating purposes for the local communities or may be cleaned and compressed for use as biofuel. Biogas has a higher energy value than bioethanol, and hence a better biofuel. The Swedish group at Lund University has expertise in organisms from extreme environments and enzyme development and engineering for biomass conversion, and biogas production.

Although agricultural crops are being used for the production of biofuels since some years, it has led to a strong concern for competition with food production. To make the production of non-food products sustainable and economical, use can be made of agriculture- and forestry residues and wastes as feedstocks for production of biofuels along with other valuable chemicals or materials. The proposal concerns a collaborative project between University of Lund, Sweden, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang, Malaysia, and Hanoi National University of Education in Vietnam, to develop a biorefinery based on rice straw, which is produced in enormous quantities in many parts of the world, especially Asia, and is burnt leading to environmental pollution. In this project, methods for hydrolyzing the cellulose component of rice will be developed and the released glucose will be converted to biopolyester using bacteria from mangroves. The fermentation residues will be converted to biogas as energy carrier. The biopolyester will also be blended with hemicellulose fraction to form composites. The project will involve exchange of scientists and students, and seminars and workshops in Malaysia and Vietnam. Mankind has become highly dependent on fossil resources for its need for energy and materials used in everyday life. With increasing demands of the growing human population, especially in developing economies, there is a strong concern that fossil resources will sooner or later come to an end. This has led to a global interest in finding alternative sources that are renewable and easily accessible in the region of interest. The other problem that motivates a shift from fossil resources is the negative environmental impact of the products in terms of greenhouse gas emissions, global warming and climate change. Fossil energy and -plastics are among the most environmentally damaging products used in enormous amounts. Large amounts of plastic wastes are collected in the landfills and oceans, creating a major threat to the land and marine ecosystems. During the past couple of decades, there has been increasing development towards the use of plant biomass as feedstock for biofuels, biomaterials and other products. The first generation of biofuels is currently produced from agricultural crops - ethanol from sugar cane or corn, and biodiesel from soybean, rapeseed or palm oil depending on the geographical location. These biofuels meet only a small fraction of the global fuel demand and are highly subsidized. They have furthermore raised some critical social and ecological issues - they compete with food for the feedstock and the land used for growing the crop. Diverting the crops for biofuel production is seen as an important factor underlying the drastic increase in food costs during 2008. For future production of bioenergy, a holistic approach needs to be taken so that both food and bioenergy are produced in a sustainable manner especially in developing countries where production of crops suffers from prevalent poor soil conditions and insufficient availability of water.

Sökande efter indikationer på supersymmetri. I strävan att utforska materiens minsta beståndsdelar och de fundamentala växelverkningarna studeras hela tiden mindre partiklar vid högre energier. I den nya acceleratorn *Large Hadron Collider* (LHC) som startade hösten 2009 vid CERN i Genéve kollideras protoner mot varandra vid 7 TeV, den högsta energi som är tillgänglig i världen. I kombination med den höga intensiteten hos partikelstrålarna som förväntas under 2011 och 2012, kommer den att ge enastående möjlighet att söka efter ny fysik i ett energiområde där dagens s.k. *standardmodell* inte nödvändigtvis är giltig.

Det finns dock anledning att tro att ny fysik kan finnas i energiomr?det kring 1 TeV. Bl.a. behöver parametrar i standardmodellen finjusteras till en onaturlig precision för att Higgs-bosonens massa inte skall vara för stor.

Traditionellt så har materialutveckling ofta handlat om att man provar sig fram genom att testa funktionen hos en stor mängd olika material. Det har varit det mest kostnadseffektiva sättet och ofta det enda sättet då de kommersiella produkterna är synnerligen komplexa och har ej kunnat förstås på en mer grundläggande nivå. Idag har dock grundläggande teoretisk och experimentell forskning alltmer sammansmält med tillämpat utvecklingsarbete. Det är ett naturligt resultat av de ständigt ökande kraven på kontroll i tillverkningsprocessen och att dimensionerna på komponenterna ofta måste minska. Till exempel så består katalysatorer ofta av nanometerstora metallpartiklar förankrade på ett oxidmaterial bestående av en mängd små porer för att maximera den aktiva arean. Dagens materialutveckling kräver alltså en grundläggande förståelse, helst på molekylär nivå, för hur material skapas och hur de fungerar i olika tillämpningar. Forskning kring katalysatorer är ett fascinerande område med en tvärvetenskaplighet som sträcker sig från fundamental kvantfysik och kemi till ren ingenjörskonst. Nya katalytiskt aktiva material kan vara lösningen på många av de nyckelproblem inom miljö- och energiområdet som finns i världen idag. Exempel på områden där katalytiska och liknande ytkemiska processer är viktiga är energiomvandling, bränsleceller och avgasrening. Det sistnämnda exemplet är troligen det som de flesta förknippar med katalys då ju i princip alla bilar numera utrustas med en katalysator för avgasrening. Detta projekt rör teoretiska och experimentella studier i samverkan för att studera (1) Oxidytor med och utan defekter; (2) Komplexa oxid/metallnanostrukturer och (3) Metallpartiklar på oxidsubstrat. De teoretiska studierna kommer att genomföras med metoder baserade på täthetsfunktionalteori, en välkänd metod (Nobelpriset i kemi 1998) som möjliggör studier av olika sorters växelverkan, bindning samt termodynamiska och elektroniska egenskaper på den mest grundläggande nivån.

Det har varit det mest kostnadseffektiva sättet och ofta det enda sättet då de kommersiella produkterna är synnerligen komplexa och har ej kunnat förstås på en mer grundläggande nivå. Idag har dock grundläggande teoretisk och experimentell forskning alltmer sammansmält med tillämpat utvecklingsarbete. Det är ett naturligt resultat av de ständigt ökande kraven på kontroll i tillverkningsprocessen och att dimensionerna på komponenterna ofta måste minska. Till exempel så består katalysatorer ofta av nanometerstora metallpartiklar förankrade på ett oxidmaterial bestående av en mängd små porer för att maximera den aktiva arean. Dagens materialutveckling kräver alltså en grundläggande förståelse, helst på molekylär nivå, för hur material skapas och hur de fungerar i olika tillämpningar. Forskning kring katalysatorer är ett fascinerande område med en tvärvetenskaplighet som sträcker sig från fundamental kvantfysik och kemi till ren ingenjörskonst. Nya katalytiskt aktiva material kan vara lösningen på många av de nyckelproblem inom miljö- och energiområdet som finns i världen idag. Exempel på områden där katalytiska och liknande ytkemiska processer är viktiga är energiomvandling, bränsleceller och avgasrening. Det sistnämnda exemplet är troligen det som de flesta förknippar med katalys då ju i princip alla bilar numera utrustas med en katalysator för avgasrening. Detta projekt rör teoretiska och experimentella studier i samverkan för att studera (1) Oxidytor med och utan defekter; (2) Komplexa oxid/metallnanostrukturer och (3) Metallpartiklar på oxidsubstrat. De teoretiska studierna kommer att genomföras med metoder baserade på täthetsfunktionalteori, en välkänd metod (Nobelpriset i kemi 1998) som möjliggör studier av olika sorters växelverkan, bindning samt termodynamiska och elektroniska egenskaper på den mest grundläggande nivån. Dessa kvantmekaniska metoder ger oss möjlighet att behandla olika faser såsom fasta ämnen, gaser samt vätskor på likvärdiga sätt. Beräkningarna utförs utan att använda justerbara parametrar så att den enda information som behövs är den som finns i det periodiska systemet.

RVF virus (RVFV) is transmitted by various mosquito species but also by blood or aerosols. It is crucial to understand the mechanisms driving the transmission cycles to establish effective countermeasures. In south Tanzania RVF has not been described although there exist a high seroprevalence. We hypothesize the occurrence of an endemic low level transmission cycle of low-pathogenic RVFV strains Aims: -Characterization of the enzootic transmission cycle of RVFV -Identification and characterization of RVFV strains in Tanzania RVF antibody and virus will be analysed in ruminants, rodents and mosquitoes to characterize the local enzootic cycle. We hypothesize that low-pathogenic RVFV circulate in rodents and that these may contribute to maintain the enzootic cycle in non-epidemic periods. They may be well adapted to their vectors and vertebrate hosts without causing severe disease. These strains may contribute to enzootic maintenance of RVFV and may act as an outbreak source when transferred to new insect vectors or vertebrates. Properties of isolated RVFV strains will be compared to highly pathogenic strains and their ability to suppress IFN-â induction will be monitored. Laboratory rodents and sheep will be inoculated with endemic and epidemic RVFV strains and the differences in pathogenesis in these animals will be analysed Plötsliga utbrott av infektionssjukdomar orsakar inte bara lidande i form av sjukdom och dödsfall. I framförallt länder i tredje världen bidrar de också till förödande effekter på landets resurser och ekonomi. Den myggburna virussjukdomen Rift Valley feber förekommer i stora utbrott som har katastrofala effekter i form av hög dödlighet hos boskap och allvarlig sjukdom, inkluderande dödsfall, även hos människor. Dessutom beläggs länder som drabbats av utbrott med exportförbud av djurprodukter, som ofta är den största inkomstkällan. Varför utbrott av Rift Valley feber äger rum är ännu till stor del okänt. Utbrotten sker med flera års uppehåll och Rift Valley feber viruset måste då cirkulera i ett, för oss idag, okänt värddjur. I södra Tanzania förkommer det inte Rift Valley feber trots att många i befolkningen har antikroppar mot Rift Valley feber virus, vilket betyder att de har haft en infektion. Vår hypotes är att dessa människor har blivit infekterade av ett virus som inte orsakar allvarlig sjukdom. Vi kommer att undersöka om detta stämmer genom att ta prover på djur och myggor i detta område. De Rift Valley feber virus som vi kan isolera kommer vi att studera med avseende på hur de skiljer sig från de virus som orsakar allvarlig sjukdom. I nuläget finns inte något godkänt Rift Valley feber virus vaccin för människor eller några antivirala mediciner. Vaccin för veterinärt bruk finns att tillgå, men dessa är inte optimala då vaccinet i sig kan inducera abort. En av målsättningarna med projektet är att förbättra möjligheterna att behandla de som drabbas av RVF genom att förstå vad det är som gör att Rift Valley feber virus orsakar sjukdom och utnyttja den kunskapen till att utveckla vaccin och antivirala mediciner mot Rift Valley feber virus infektion. Generellt kommer resultaten av denna studie förbättra befintliga system för tidig varning mot Rift Valley feber utbrott och ge verktyg som stöder beslutsfattandet.

The collaborative program will unite the efforts of the teams and their expertise in two adjacent fields - synthesis and surface modification of metal oxide nanoparticles and mesoporous microparticles (with advanced experience in physicochemical characterization of surface binding) from the Swedish side and the synthesis and functionalization of mesoporous silica and silica-based nanocomposites (together with valuable experience of their implementation in water purification) from the Ukrainian side. Our specific aims: 1) Creation of metal oxide coated silica with well defined composition for selective uptake and release of active biomolecules/enzymes. 2) Synthesis of highly biocompatible silica-metal oxide based adsorbents functionalized for uptake of several hazardous radioactive species. 3) Creation of nanocomposite multi-functional microparticles, testing them on wastewater samples modeling complex water systems generated by natural disasters of the type of Chernobyl and Fukushima catastrophe. The goals will be achieved through coordinated research uniting the efforts of specialists in materials synthesis, characterization and theoretical modeling. Project plan involves 2 workshops, several mutual research visits and a conference. Fri tillgång till rent vatten är ett av de absolut viktigaste mänskliga behov. Människor behöver vatten för att kunna dricka, laga mat, tvätta sig själva och sina kläder. Naturkatastrofer som resulterar från klimatförändringen och olyckor orsakade av människor, speciellt kärnkraftsolyckor som den i Chernobyl, och nyligen i Fukushima i Japan där naturen har bidragit till att kärnkraftsolyckan inträffat, skapar ohållbara situationer då allt tillgängligt vattnet blir kraftigt förorenat av organiskt avfall, radioaktiva ämnen, eller i värsta fall av dessa bägge i kombination. Ukraina lider fortfarande av konsekvenser av Chernobyl katastrofen som inträffade för strax över 25 år sedan och gjorde många annars tillgängliga vattenresurser obrukbara. En stor utmaning för forskare som jobbar med reningsteknologier för att återskapa vattnets kvalité är att kunna hitta eller egentligen snarare skapa nya reningsmaterial kapabla på rekordtid och till rimlig kostnad återställa de nödvändiga vattenresurserna. I sökandet efter lämpliga material kan man vända sig till två fungerande alternativ: antingen membranmaterial för att rengöra vatten genom filtrering vilket är relativt kostsammare och energikrävande eller försöka använda adsorbenter, material som suger in i sig de farliga föroreningarna och kan i vissa fall hjälpa till att destruera dem. Diverse adsorbenter används aktivt på reningsverk världen över redan idag, men utmaningen är att principiellt effektivisera och påskynda reningsprocessen. Man vill gärna att adsorbenter inte bara fångar de farliga föroreningarna som t.ex. radioaktiva isotoper, men även samtidigt hjälper till att bli av med farligt organiskt avfall. För att vara riktigt effektiva måste de således vara multifunktionella, kapabla att hjälpa till på flera olika sätt samtidigt. En annan principiell utmaning är att det tar rejält med tid att bli av med redan förorenade adsorbenter, avlägsna dem från vattnet som har blivit rent. Idag gör man det genom sedimentering, d.v.s. låter adsorbent partiklar falla ner på botten av kärlet där vatten renas upp, och sedan häller ut det rengjorda vattnet. Man vill gärna påskynda processen utan att det behöver bli särskilt mycket dyrare. En principiell lösning som kan tas till vara är att skapa adsorbent partiklar med magnetiska egenskaper, så att man lätt ska kunna samla dem med en magnet (och även regenerera sedan genom att avlägsna de koncentrerade föroreningarna och återbilda det aktiva adsorbent materialet). Forskningsgrupperna i Sverige och Ukraina som står bakom detta projektförslag har på senare tid utvecklad mycket värdefull och kompletterande kompetens inom syntes, funktion och användning av komplexa adsorbenter som visar förmåga att effektivt ta bort radioaktiva föroreningar (Ukraina) och snabbt destruera organiskt avfall med hjälp av på adsorbenterna immobiliserade enzymer (Sverige). Bägge grupper har börjat aktivt experimentera med adsorbenter som har magnetiska egenskaper. Ytkemiska Institutet i Ukraina (Chuiko Institute of Surface Chemistry) är också den organisationen som i sitt land ansvara för utvecklingen av vattenreningsteknologier som även ingår i SLUs ansvarsområde. Det är därför inte alls underligt att dessa bägge har kommit i kontakt med varandra för ett tag sedan och startade informationsutbyte. De har även i samarbete genomfört en NATO-stödd workshop ?Sol-Gel Materials for Pollution Control, Water Purification and Soil Remediation? som ägde rum i Kiev i oktober 2007. Starkare samarbete med stöd från VR kan leda till genombrott inom detta mycket viktiga område och göra stort bidrag till människors välstånd i Ukraina, speciellt på mindre orter och på landsbygden där uppbyggnad av större konventionella reningsverk blir även i framtiden ekonomiskt ohållbart.

Clinical trials show that cooling has a positive effect on the brain injury caused by oxygen deprivation. Our research is based on examinations of cellular mechanisms underlying the brain damage and the protective effects of hypothermia. The project aims to implement and perform multicentre clinical trials with a new solution, including a newly invented Phase Changing Material (PCM) mattress methodology, both for patients within a clinic and during transport addressing the problem of fast low fluctuation cooling. The aim is to carry out the clinical trials at a site with different temperature variations and limited resources, Viet Nam. Goals: Development of a clinical protocol as alternative to current relatively complex and expensive cooling methods, independent of electricity and water, for a global implementation. When PCM changes phase from solid to liquid it can take up a large amount of energy from the surroundings, in our case from the patient. This energy transfer will cause the patient to cool down. Significance would be to demonstrate that a novel method, previously not tested, could be developed all the way to a clinical application and implemented globally. The advantage with the PCM includes being a reusable, environmentally safe cooling method, independent of clean water and electricity. Allvarlig syrgasbrist vid födelsen drabbar ca 1-2 barn/1000 födslar och hälften utvecklar en medelsvår eller allvarlig syrebristskada. I utvecklingsländer kan antalet individer som drabbas av allvarlig syrebristskada vara 10-falt högre. Internationell koncensus enligt Cochrane, är att de barn som haft medelsvår nyföddhetsasfyxi, fått en förbättrad prognos (minskning av död och CP-skador) om behandling genom nedkylning inleds inom 6h. Mitt doktorsavhandlingsarbete rörde forskning kring vad som sker i hjärnan när nyfödda drabbas av allvarlig syrebrist samt utveckling av en ny metodik för terapeutisk kylning, där vi använder en av oss utvecklad kylmaddrass innehållande fasförändringsmatrial (PCM, Phase Change Material) för enkel, effektiv kylbehandling. I djurmodeller gjordes analys av nyckelgener som påverkas av nedkylning till olika temperaturer samt kombinationsbehandling med xenon. Sammantaget är resultatet att nedkylning med PCM är lika effektivt som nuvarande metod (vattenkylning) och därför bör ha samma effekter som traditionell kylning vad gäller att minska hjärnskadeutbredningen. Sammarbetsstödet planeras användas för att utveckla och tillämpa kylning med PCM-baserade madrasser på nyfödda barn som drabbats av syrebrist och som lever i resurssvagare länder. De kan kylas ned med PCM-madrasser redan under transport, eftersom PCM-kylning är oberoende av el och vatten. Detta förkortar tid mellan födsel och inledning av behandling. Vid ankomst till centra för fortsatt nedkylning kan sådan ske under hela behandlingsperioden med enbart PCM-madrasser eller med traditionell metod. Vår forskning har bidragit till ökad kunskap om PCMs egenskaper i intervallet 20- 45°C. Fortsatt grundvetenskaplig utveckling av PCM och kylteknik sker i samarbete med Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan, ass. prof. Viktoria Martin vid ?Division of Energy Processes?. PCM med olika egenskaper kan utnyttjas i en rad ytterligare medicinska och tekniska tillämpningar, såsom kylning vid stroke, brännskador, etc eller för upprätthållande av kroppstemperatur hos barn och vuxna med störd temperaturreglering. I fattigare länder är nyföddhetsasfyxi betydligt vanligare. Jag har på ort och ställe skaffat mig goda kontakter för att genomföra kliniska tester av PCM-kylning i Hanoi, Viet Nam, där intresset för, och behovet av nedkylning är stort.

Modern crop cultivars have lost many important adaptive genetic resources related to biotic and abiotic stress fitness components found in the wild progenitors. Here we propose some studies on application of beneficial soil bacteria which enhance plant stress tolerance and phosphorus (P) availability. The bacteria are isolated from the rhizosphere of wild progenitors of cereals at climatically stressful areas. The project builds upon our experience on plant abiotic stress regulation and a collection of bacterial strains from our joint collection. In the frame of the project we develop the technology of the bacterial field application and evaluate its efficiency on P uptake and stress tolerance enhancement on Egyptian wheat, barley and rice. Special attention is paid to the method communication between two countries. We also aim at establishing local initiative groups for potential information and product users in Egypt.

Torka och saltstress tillsammans med lågt näringsanvändningseffektivitet är ett stort problem i det Egyptiska jordbruket och leder ofta till stora skördeförluster. Moderna sorter av våra grödor har ofta svag tolerans mot abiotisk stress och är mer mottagliga för sjukdomsangrepp jämfört med sina vilda förfäder, vilket kan leda till stora förluster inom jordbruket. Problemet är särskilt relevant eftersom den globala utvecklingen tyder på att olika abiotiska stressituationer för växter kommer att öka framöver. Vi föreslår här en studie för att öka växternas tolerans mot olika stressituationer genom användning av markorganismer som kan öka grödornas tolerans mot stressfaktorer, särskilt torka, saltstress och fosforbrist. Användning av naturligt förekommande jordmikroorganismer med positiv inverkan på växternas tillväxt och hälsa är ett attraktivt alternativ till konventionella jordbruksmetoder. Sådana mikroorganismer kan underlätta växternas vatten- och näringsupptag, samt kan motverka flera olika typer av stress som kan drabba växter. De positiva effekterna som många av dessa mikroorganismer har på växter förmedlas av en rad mekanismer, inklusive förbättrat upptag av mineralnäring, förbättring av plantornas tolerans mot biologisk och icke biologisk stress, modifiering av rotutveckling samt hämning av jordburna sjukdomar. De bakteriella egenskaper som är inblandade i dessa aktiviteter inkluderar kvävefixering, upplösning av fosfater, bindning av järn, syntes av fytohormoner, anpassning av växtens etylennivåer samt kontroll av fytopatogena mikroorganismer. Det är känt att vissa bakterier i rotzonen har utvecklats tillsammans med växtrötter under årtusenden och flera system i växter och bakterier är kända för att ha utvecklat system som utlöser tillgängliga resurser och initierar metabolisk tillväxt vilket behövs i olika stressituationer. På så sätt reglerar energikänsliga system genuttrycken på många nivåer för att tillåta flexibilitet i växternas omfattande stressförsvar. Moderna växtsorter har förlorat många viktiga genetiska förmågor för anpassning till biologiska och abiotiska stressfaktorer vilka annars finns naturligt i vilda arter och populationer. Därför inkluderar vårt system vilt korn Hordeum spontaneum från naturlaboratoriet ?Evolution Canyon?. Vi har under de senaste åren utvecklat en metod för användning av markmikroorganismer för att öka torktolerans i stråsäd odlad under kontrollerade förhållanden. I det föreslagna projektet vill vi utveckla denna teknik för användning i fält, och vi kommer att utvärdera mikroorganismernas effekt på fosforupptag och torktolerans hos Egyptiska sorter av vete, korn och ris. Särskild fokus ligger på förbättrad kommunikation av metodutvecklingen mellan forskare i Sverige och Egypten, och med potentiella användare av metoden i Egypten. Vi kommer exempelvis att försöka skapa lokala initiativgrupper för informationsspridning och produktutveckling i Egypten, som diskuterar tekniken med berörda parter inom ramen för konferenser och workshops som planeras inom projektet. Inom detta projekt ger en kombination av praktisk fältforskning och molekylära forskningsmetoder en unik möjlighet för att på sikt öka avkastning av viktiga grödor som vete, korn och ris i Egypten på ett miljövänligt och ekologiskt hållbart sätt.

Qualified surgeons are few, elective surgery is rare and the annual budget for health care is minimal. The burden of disease due to groin hernias accumulates. Consequently, morbidity is significant and mortality occurs. Techniques which use surgical mesh in groin hernia surgery significantly reduced the risk for recurrence and are standard in high income settings. The commercial mesh is very costly and is consequently not available to patients in low income countries. Mosquito nets have many similar properties as the commercials. They are currently used in several locations and small studies done show very promising results. However, the research is not sufficient to fully support this practice. For this reason, a large trial has been initiated in a medical collaboration between surgeons from Sweden and Uganda. Hypothesis The hypothesis is that there will be no significant difference between the two materials. Method A double blinded, randomized clinical trial. The surgeries are performed under local anaesthesia, by qualified surgeons on a day care basis. The study also involves a cost effectiveness analysis. Ethical approval has been granted from the Institutional Review Board at School of Biomedical Sciences, Makerere University, Uganda. Significance If the hypothesis is proven correct, the mesh technique can be introduced on large scale with a benefit for millions of patients with untreated groin hernias. Bakgrund Behovet av kirurgi i Uganda är stort. Prevalensen av ljumskbråck bland vuxna män ligger på drygt 10 %. Förmodligen något lägre bland kvinnor. Vana kirurger är få, avstånden mellan sjukhusen är stort och den totala sjukvårdsbudgeten är låg. Planerad kirurgi är därför mycket sparsamt förekommande varför uttalad morbiditet och dödsfall förekommer vid bland annat ljumskbråck vilket i hög grad påverkar individens förmåga att försörja sig. I Sverige och andra höginkomstländer används idag tekniker där inläggning av ett nätmaterial ingår vid ljumskbråckskirurgi. Omfattande dokumentation har visat att det ger dramatiskt bättre resultat med framförallt mindre risk för återfall. De nät som används är dyra och därför sällan eller aldrig tillgängliga i låg- och medel inkomstländer. Dessa nät liknar de myggnät som finns lättillgängliga(snarlikt material) och endast kostar en bråkdel. Tidigare, små studier har visat mycket lovande resultat av ljumskbråckskirurgi med myggnät, men en större jämförande studie är nödvändig för att bekräfta detta innan metoden kan introduceras på bred front. De allra flesta ljumskbråcksoperationer i Uganda utförs i full narkos. Det innebär alltid en viss risk och kräver i väst uttalad anestesikompetens och avancerad utrustning vilket saknas i Uganda. Åtskilliga välkontrollerade studier har visat att lokalbedövning har uttalade fördelar med mindre risk för komplikationer, kortare vårdtid och stora kostnadsbesparingar. Medelvårdtid efter en ljumskbråcksoperation i Uganda är 3?7 dagar vilket innebär hög kostnad och större inkomst bortfall. I Sverige utförs över 80 % av all ljumskbråckskirurgi som dagkirurgi. Nu har ett, sedan längre tid planerat, samarbetsprojekt mellan kirurgkolleger från Karolinska och Umeå universitet samt Makerereuniversitetet i Kampala, Uganda startats upp. Det är en omfattande randomiserad (jämförande) studie som nu pågår i Uganda med hypotesen att kommersiella nät och myggnät är jämförbara vad gäller postoperativa komplikationer, smärta och återfall men till en betydligt lägre kostnad för myggnät. Metod Kontrollerad, randomiserad, dubbelblind studie där kommersiellt nät jämförs med myggnät. Standardiserad operationsteknik med nät används. 360 patienter ska randomiseras. Klinisk kontroll 14 dagar och ett år efter operation. Målsättningen är att samtliga operationer ska utförs som dagkirurgiska ingrepp i lokalbedövning. Erfarna bråckkirurger med specialistutbildning från Uganda och Sverige utför operationerna. Preoperativt tas anamnes och status. Livskvalitet utvärderas med hjälp av EuroQol 5D frågeformulär. De som uppfyller inklusionskriterierna lottas till antingen intervention (myggnät) eller kontrollgrupp (kommersiella nät). För att kunna följa upp patienter från en region används en så kallad Demographic Surveillance Site (DSS). En DSS är ett geografiskt avgränsat område med ett system för att övervaka födslar, dödsfall, dödsorsaker, och migration i befolkningen över tid. Demografiska kontrollområden anses vara en av hörnstenarna i folkhälsoforskning. Studiekohorten hämtas från DSS:en i distrikten Iganga och Mayuge, Uganda. Det verkar i ett geografiskt avgränsat område med landsbygd (~ 80%) och stadsnära (~ 20%) befolkning på cirka 67 tusen människor. Eftersom patienter som ingår kommer från DSS:en är det känt exakt var de bor och om de flyttat vilket möjliggör långtidsuppföljning. Klinisk uppföljning genomförs av en blindad läkare som inte utfört eller varit med vid operationen. Uppföljning planeras vid två tillfällen, men patienterna uppmanas att söka kontinuerligt vid eventuella komplikationer. Fjorton dagar och ett år postoperativt genomgår patienterna kliniska kontroller.

An approach for fighting malaria is to transform mosquito symbiotic bacteria to produce effectors against the malaria parasite, a.k.a. paratransgenesis. We have previously isolated a new family of bacteria, Thorsellia, which is uniquely associated with malaria mosquitoes, and by DNA sequencing shown its existence in Brazil. To know more about the biology of this mosquito symbiont and its potential for paratransgenic approaches against malaria, we aim to isolate Thorsellia spp. from Brazil and investigate its relative abundance in mosquitoes and their breeding waters. In addition, we will investigate the survival and stability of Thorsellia in the Anopheles mosquitoes. A deeper understanding of Thorsellia and its relation to the mosquitoes is a prerequisite for fruitful paratransgenesis. In Brazil this system is optimal since the most important malaria mosquito cannot mate in captivity for a transgenic approach and thus is restricted to paratransgenesis. In the project, researchers from Sweden will go to Manaus for on-site development of sampling techniques. Students from Brazil will go to Sweden for development of transformed Thorsellia bacteria that can be followed in the malaria mosquitoes and to learn more about techniques in microbiology. For both research teams the current proposal would serve as a starting point with a common goal, the development of paratransgenic malaria mosquitoes. Förekomst och etablering av den unika bakterien Thorsellia i brasilianska malariamyggor Malaria är en sjukdom som orsakas av en encellig parasit och sprids via blodsugande myggor i stora delar av världen. Ofta är det i mycket fattiga regioner som människor råkar mest illa ut. I Brasilien drabbas 600 000 personer av malaria varje år, framförallt i Amazonas. Det finns flera sätt att försöka bekämpa sjukdomen. För närvarande används metoder som förutsätter en relativt väl fungerande infrastruktur, till exempel mediciner och myggnät impregnerade med bekämpningsmedel. Det pågår sedan länge forskning på att ta fram ett vaccin mot malaria, men hittills utan att få någon praktisk tillämpning. På senare tid har man börjat titta på möjligheten att sprida ut genmodifierade myggor som inte kan föra malariaparasiten vidare, men detta tillvägagångssätt kräver att den myggart man är intresserad av att förändra går att föda upp på lab. Den viktigaste malaria vektorn i Syd-Amerika är Anopheles darlingi, som inte kan föröka sig i labmiljö. Ett alternativ är därför att istället använda sig av bakterier som naturligt finns i myggornas mag-tarmsystem och modifiera dessa så att de producerar ett ämne som slår ut malariaparasiten. För att detta ska fungera så krävs det en bakterie som lever i symbios med malariamyggor. Nyligen har vi och andra visat att en tidigare okänd bakterie, Thorsellia anophelis, är knuten till malariamyggor och DNA från den har bara hittas i malaria myggor eller kläckningsvatten från malariaområden, varav ett i Brasilien. DNA-jämförelser visar att Thorsellia är ett mycket unikt släkte och att det kan bestå av flera närstående arter eller stammar. Idag finns bara ett isolat av Thorsellia, från Kenya, och vi behöver fler för att kunna kartlägga denna intressanta bakteries släktskap, genetik och biologi. I detta projekt vill vi därför, tillsammans med kolleger i Brasilien, leta upp nya isolat av Thorsellia i mygglarver och fullvuxna myggor samt i ytvatten från deras kläckningsområden. För att förstå hur Thorsellia samverkar med myggorna, kommer vi att undersöka förekomsten av Thorsellia i larver, adulter och myggornas kläckningsvatten vid olika tidpunkter på året. Eftersom Thorsellia verkar vara starkt knuten till malariamyggor, vill vi också undersöka hur den etablerar sig inuti myggorna. Den uppnådda kunskapen kommer att vara en nödvändighet för att testa lämpligheten av Thorsellia för försök med paratransgenes för att slå ut malariaparasiten. Ett antal av de metoder som behövs i projektet finns etablerade i Sverige, men de lokala förhållandena är avgörande för att kunna tillämpa paratransgenes i verkligheten. Endast genom ett internationellt utbyte kan den senaste forskningen komma de utsatta människorna till gagn, men samtidigt är ett internationellt samarbete ofrånkomligt för att etablera all den baskunskap som behövs för en framgångsrik strategi mot malaria.

In Central America (CA) heat stress is a suspected causal factor in a severe epidemic of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This project will develop a core set of methods for field monitoring of heat stress and its early physiological response. Specifically, it will explore indicators for heat stress exposure, indicators for dehydration, and methods for estimation of physical work load suitable for occupational settings in developing countries. Methods will be based on recommendations from an international workshop in Lund in 2012 and field tested in sugarcane, construction, mining and salt workers in Costa Rica, El Salvador and Nicaragua during 2013. In 2014, the associations between heat exposure, physical activity and dehydration during work will be analyzed. During a final workshop in CA a grant application will be prepared for a full-scale heat-stress exposure study, aiming at constructing a job-heat exposure matrix for common occupational activities suitable for use in epidemiologic evaluations of the CKD epidemic. Reseachers from CA will visit the FAS Excellence Center MetaLund for training, and Swedish students will participate in field studies in CA. The project builds on a longstanding Swedish-Cental American collaboration, through an existing research network, the Central American Program on Work, Environment and Health, SALTRA. Orsakar arbete i mycket varmt klimat dehydrering och nedsatt njurfunktion? Enkla metoder för att mäta värmepåverkan behövs för fortsatta epidemiologiska studier. Konsekvensanalyser av den pågående klimatförändringen har hittills främst varit fokuserade på miljöeffekter och direkta hälsoaspekter. Man har oftast förbisett den direkta effekten av värme på människors arbetsförmåga, och i förlängningen på produktivitet och ekonomisk utveckling. Redan i dag påverkas många människor i tropikerna alltför mycket av hetta, och framtida ökad värmestress kommer att ge betydande förluster i arbetsförmåga. Behovet av att skapa lösningar för att skydda arbetstagarnas hälsa och produktivitet är stort. I Centralamerika är en stor del av arbetskraften utsätts för hög värme under stora delar av året. Undersökningar för att förstå de kort- och långsiktiga effekterna av den globala uppvärmningen avseende arbetsvillkor, arbetstagarnas hälsa och arbetsförmåga ar har varit en viktig del av nätverket SALTRAs (Hälsa och arbete i Centralamerika) program under de senaste fem åren (www.saltra.info). SALTRA är ett program för kapacitetsuppbyggnad inom arbetsmedicin och arbetshälsa genom syd - syd - nord samarbeten. Sedan flera decennier tillbaka har man i vissa delar av Centralamerika sett en kraftig ökning av allvarlig kronisk njursjukdom, som främst drabbar män redan i unga åldrar. Traditionella riskfaktorer såsom diabetes, övervikt och hypertoni kan inte förklara denna ökning. Den folkliga uppfattningen är att arbete på sockerrörsplantager är orsak till sjukdomen. De senaste åren har man i epidemiologiska studier kunnat bekräfta att sockerrörsarbetare är mer drabbade än andra, men orsakerna till detta är ännu inte kända. Det finns dock misstankar om att det mycket tunga kroppsarbetet vid skörd av sockerrör på nyss avbrända fält leder till ständigt återkommande vätskeförluster, som i sin tur skulle kunna orsaka ackumulerande njurpåverkan som så småningom kan leda till njursvikt, ensamt eller tillsammans med andra samverkande faktorer i arbets- eller omgivningsmiljön. Stöd för denna hypotes har man fått av observationer att sockerarbetare på plantager på högre höjd (och därmed svalare klimat) inte verkar drabbas på samma sätt som de som arbetar på det varmare låglandet. Liknande hittills oförklarliga regionala epidemier av njursjukdom har också observerats i i Sri Lanka, Indien och Egypten, som alla också har mycket varmt klimat. Detta projekt är ett samarbete mellan forskare i Centralamerika, och forskare vid Lunds universitet. Det syftar till att utveckla billiga och robusta metoder för att kvantifiera exponering för värme, värmestress och förändringar i vätskestatus under en arbetsdag. Metoderna ska kunna användas vid fältstudier på alla typer av arbetsplatser. Sådana metoder behövs för identifiering av risker i arbetet, övervakning av arbetstagare, och för utvärdering av interventionsprogram. Metoderna ska också kunna användas i epidemiologiska studier för att utvärdera om långvarig värmestress skulle kunna ge upphov till njurskador. Om så är fallet innebär det en hälsorisk, som kan ge ha stora folkhälsokonsekvenser och öka belastningen på hälso- och sjukvården i länder med redan i dag knappa resurser. Men det är samtidigt en hälsorisk som kan påverkas med förhållandevis enkla åtgärder på arbetsplatsen för att minska värmebelastningen och dess konsekvenser. Projektet bygger på forskning inom det befintliga SALTRA programmet i Centralamerika. Genom samarbetsprojektet kommer forskarna i Centralamerika att kunna ta del av resurser vid FAS Excellenscengtrum MetaLund, med ett termiskt laboratorium i världsklass, och en forskargrupp med lång erfarenhet av kvantitativ mätning av muskelaktivitet under fältmässiga förhållanden.

Effective vector control methods including the use of pesticides, insecticide-treated bed nets, and synthetic and plant-based repellents are important means of control against such invertebrates. However, insecticide resistance, outdoor transmission, and mosquito behavioral changes threaten the effectiveness of vector control measures. Research by our group in 66 villages identified a total of 92 plant species as traditional repellents. Subsequent studies on the repellence efficacy of essential oil or crude extracts of the most commonly reported species showed that the traditional plant repellents were effective repellents against leeches, fly larvae and mosquitoes. Many of the plant-based repellents had similar efficacy to synthetic repellents, have promise as alternatives to expensive synthetics. This project aims to use gas chromatography (GC), high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectroscopy (MS) to identify the active components in the most promising species in order to develop plant-based repellents; to evaluate genotype constituent variability; to test the efficacy of these purified or fractionated repellents using field trials; and to create easy-to-understand, intuitive protocol for local harvesting, extraction and use of the plant-based repellents. Blood-feeding parasites such as mosquitoes, leeches, ticks, mites, lice, bedbugs, and myiasis-producing fly larvae are a common cause of health problems in Lao People's Democratic Republic. Several infectious diseases are spread by insect hosts, e.g. malaria, dengue fever, and Japanese encephalitis, and these are very common in rural areas in Lao People's Democratic Republic. Some of these diseases can be treated with modern pharmaceuticals, but some of the best treatments are very expensive and hard to-come-by in Lao People's Democratic Republic. Another factor complicating diseases treatment is the emergence of drug-resistance, most recently resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to the last effective cure, artemisine, has been found. Controlling the spread of these insect-disease-hosts, i.e. disease-vectors, is an important focal area in absence of effective, available or affordable treatments to these infections. Effective vector control methods include the use of pesticides, insecticide-treated bed nets, and synthetic and plant-based repellents. However, insecticide resistance, outdoor transmission, and mosquito behavioural changes threaten the effectiveness of vector control measures. The cost of synthetic chemicals for impregnation can be an important factor limiting their optimal use. Mosquito control programs often distribute bed nets and chemicals for impregnation free of charge, but sometimes it is required that people subsequently pay for future impregnation of the nets. In rural Lao areas where a majority of the population lives below the World Bank poverty line, costs of USD 4 per net and USD 1 per impregnation are unaffordable. The value of plants traditionally used to repel blood-feeding arthropods has often been underestimated. Plants used to obtain extracts or oils containing natural repellents can often be easily cultivated at a low cost in most tropical areas; especially practical are herbaceous or shrub-like species. However, research on phytochemical composition and repellence efficacy has to an extent focused only a handful of species with promising efficacy in trials, but planting lemon eucalyptus or neem trees does not provide a short-term solution for affected populations. A nationwide study of traditional knowledge on plants that are used to repel or kill hematophagous arthropods conducted by our group in 2009 identified a total of 92 plant species as traditional repellents used to repel or kill mosquitoes, bedbugs, human lice, mites and ticks, fly larvae, and blood-sucking leeches (de Boer et al., 2010). Studies on the repellence efficacy of the 9 most commonly reported species showed that the traditional plant repellents were effective repellents against leeches, fly larvae infesting foods and mosquitoes. Many of the plant-based repellents had similar efficacy to synthetic repellents. The project aims to build on quantitative ethnobiological data on plant-based repellents gathered in prior studies, and to characterize the active phytochemical constituents or/and fractions containing repellents in species that showed promising efficacy in repellence field trials; to evaluate genotype constituent variability to select plant lines with the highest levels of active compounds; and to develop protocols for local harvesting, extraction and storage of plant-based repellents in order to empower communities to create their own repellents, independent of ethnicity, location or government programs.

The use of energy storage technologies can help providing smarter electrical grids and distributed generation. Flywheels are, among other energy storage technologies, very attractive due to their fast response time and weak life-time dependence on charge/discharge rate. The electrical connection and control of flywheels are multidisciplinary topics, including electrical machines design, magnetic bearings, power electronics and control systems. Those electrical components required for the functionality of such flywheel based energy storage systems are the focus of the proposed project. Aspects as functionality and efficiency can be evaluated, as well as the expected effects of energy storage systems on the grid. Simulations of the different system components and a small scale prototype are expected as deliverables of this project. The work developed is expected to result in scientific publications, patentable material and also to enhance the interest of the academia and industry in this research area. The project will last 36 months and it is to be developed with the collaboration of three different universities: Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Fluminense Federal University and Uppsala University. Detta projekt syftar till att studera tillämpningen av system för lagring av energi på elnätet, speciellt svänghjul. Användningen av teknik för lagring av energi kan bidra till att ge ett smartare elnät och möjliggöra distribuerad produktion. Tre frågor ämnas undersökas i projektet: - Möjliga tillämpningar för energilagringssystem (särskilt svänghjul) i det brasilianska och det svenska elnätet, - Studie, modellering och implementering av det elektriska systemet (kraftelektronik och styrningsstrategi) som krävs för att ansluta de studerade energilagringsteknikerna, - Design för ett högeffektivt system, inklusive studier av olika topologier för den elektriska maskinen och magnetiska lager. Särskilt i Brasilien, som är ett mycket stort land och där produktionsanläggningar ofta ligger långt från slutkonsumenten, är energilagring ett mycket bra alternativ för att minska behovet av långa transmissionssystem. Detta kan leda till en avsevärd energibesparing, minska förlusterna i elsystemet och kostnaden för att bygga långa kraftledningar. Med de växande politiska insatserna för att omforma den globala energiförsörjningen, förväntas marknaden för energilagring öka. I Europa driver ?20-20-20-målet?, som definierar en uppsättning klimat- och energimål, utvecklingen framåt. För att förstå hur behovet av lagring uppstår, måste man förstå hur överförings- och distributionssystemen har utvecklats och hur intermittent och distribuerad produktion kan ändra kraven på nätet. Den elektriska anslutningen och styrning av elektriska system för lagring av energi är ett mycket intressant ämne, eftersom det kan ha stor påverkan på energisystemets prestanda och effektivitet. I fallet med svänghjul kan den lagrade energin överföras in i eller ut genom användning av en elektrisk maskin, som är mekaniskt ansluten till själva svänghjulet där huvuddelen av energin lagras. Utvecklingen av kraftelektronik gör det möjligt att använda svänghjul med hög effekt, där elektroniken är jämförbar i storlek med svänghjulet själv eller mindre. Kompositmaterial möjliggör hög rotationshastighet. Magnetiska lager och vakuumdrift erbjuder mycket låg friktion under långvarig lagring och längre livslängd för höga rotationshastigheter. Hög hastighet är önskvärd eftersom den energi som lagras är proportionell mot kvadraten på hastigheten, men endast linjärt proportionell mot massan. Både Uppsala universitet och federala universitetet i Rio de Janeiro bedriver forskning om svänghjulssystem. Vid Uppsala universitet har utformningen av elektriska maskiner beträffande både elektromagnetiska och mekaniska begränsningar undersökts. Dessutom har studier av olika strategier för kontroll och kraftelektronik till svänghjulet utförts. På det federala universitetet i Rio de Janeiro, och mer nyligen på Fluminense Federal University, har studier på supraledande magnetiska lager, tillämpade på svänghjulssystem, utförts vilket resulterat i en prototyp av ett supraledande snabbt svänghjul för energilagring. Den kunskap forskarna vid de olika universiteten fått genom tidigare projekt kan kombineras, vilket resulterar i en mycket kompetent och tvärvetenskaplig forskargrupp. Detta arbete, i ett sådant intressant och relevant ämne, förväntas resultera i vetenskapliga publikationer och även öka intresset från såväl akademi som industri inom detta forskningsområde.

It is however not yet clear how feasible in Tropical Africa. An essential question is left unanswered: how can the malaria free situation be sustained in a long run? Islands provide natural experiments. On Aneityum island in Vanuatu, Oceania malaria was eliminated in 1991 with a short-term mass drug administration (MDA), sustained vector control and surveillance (Kaneko 2000 Lancet). Malaria freedom has been maintained up to now with a community-directed strategy. We apply the Aneityum strategy to islands in Lake Victoria with high malaria transmission to examine whether malaria can be eliminated by an aggressive attack and whether malaria freedom can be maintained in Tropical Africa. We specifically aim to examine: 1) the strategy of radical MDA in concert with vector control to eliminate malaria, 2) the roles of community in malaria elimination, 3) the values of malaria elimination for an equitable and sustainable development in Tropical Africa. The outcomes can serve as a model for the proposal of community-directed strategies for sustainable malaria freedom to follow the short-term push by external donors. Along with an ambitious goal we intend to establish new research ties between Sweden and Kenya to conduct collaborative research of high scientific quality, which is essential for us together to plan and submit a further collaborative research proposal to expand our ideas towards global malaria eradication. Svenskt-Kenyanskt vetenskapligt samarbete för att utrota malaria i tropiska Afrika Idag är utrotning av malaria en global fråga. Det är dock ännu inte klart hur denna omfattar det tropiska Afrika och hur kan denna del av Afrika kan förbli malariafritt på lång sikt? Öar ger naturliga möjligheter till experiment. På ön Aneityum i Vanuatu eliminerades Oceanienmalarian 1991 genom att administrera en snabb massmedicinering (MDA) med intensiv övervakning och vektorkontroll (Kaneko et al.2000 Lancet). Frihet från malaria har tills nu upprätthållits genom en samhällsstyrd strategi. Vi tillämpar ?Aneityum strategin? i Lake Victoria med hög malaria överföring för att undersöka om malaria kan elimineras genom en aggressiv attack och om frihet från malaria kan upprätthållas i det tropiska Afrika. Vi ämnar särskilt undersöka: 1) strategin för en radikal MDA tillsammans med vectorkontroll för att eliminera malaria, 2) samhällets roll vid eliminering av malaria, 3) värdet av att eliminera malaria för en rättvis och uthållig utveckling i det tropiska Afrika. Resultaten kan tjäna som en modell för förslag på samhällsinriktade strategier för hållbar frihet från malaria och åstadkomma ett snabbt tryck från externa donatorer. Tillsammans med ett ambitiöst mål i de föreslagna epidemiologiska miljöerna avser vi att etablera nya band mellan forskning i Sverige och i Kenya, en forskning i samarbete med hög vetenskaplig kvalitet och som utbildning för nästa generations forskare i båda länderna inom relevanta områden mot en global utrotning av malaria.

This will be done by initially isolating relevant species from Sri Lankan coastal water. Thereafter we will conduct manipulated experiments in Sri Lanka in which we look at the fitness of the selected species under ambient and future oceanographic settings. In Sweden we will conduct yet another manipulated experiment where we will study the expression of functional genes of the same species under increased and ambient temperature, decreased and ambient salinity, and increased and ambient pCO2. The two PIs will jointly be responsible for all the scientific experiments. The rational for using our sets of variable for the manipulated experiments are based on IPCC climate projections, and on our own analyses of long-term hydrographic monitoring data set from the region. Our intention is to build a strong collaboration between Sweden and Sri Lanka, to generate good and relevant scientific results and to publish our findings in high ranked international scientific journals. Our results will contribute to sustainable development in tropical countries dependent on export of marine products. We will promote focused microbial monitoring of coastal water, which will ensure safe bivalves-an environmental friendly protein source. Växtplankton är viktiga komponenter i hav och sjöar, dels för att de utgör basen för akvatiska näringskedjor, men också för att de fixerar koldioxid genom fotosyntes. Mängden CO2 som fixeras av växtplankton är faktiskt större än den mängd som fixeras av alla jordens skogar. Bakterier är också viktiga i dessa ekosystem för att de bryter ner organiskt material och bidrar till återanvändning av näringsämnen. I de flesta fall är tillväxt av växtplankton positivt för akvatiska ekosystem och vattenbruk, men under vissa förhållanden blommar skadliga arter och bakterier. Dessa blomningar är en hälsorisk för människor och kan orsaka stora ekonomiska förluster för fiskeri-, vattenbruk- och turistnäring. Man räknar med att ungefär 100 marina algarter producerar gifter. Gifterna från alger och bakterieceller ackumuleras i filtrerande organismer, som t.ex. musslor. När vi äter dessa musslor så blir vi sjuka och kan i värsta fall dö. Andra gifter har haemolytisk verkan som kan skada ömtåliga vävnader hos fisk och marina ryggradslösa djur. Giftet som orsakar haemolys gör mest skada på arter som hålls i fångenskap, exempelvis odlad fisk och skaldjur. Dessa odlade organismer kan ju inte fly från algblomningen. Bakterier infekterar fisk och skaldjur med skadlig utgång antingen för djuret direkt, eller för människan då hon äter djuret. På Sri Lanka, och i flera andra kustsbelägna utvecklingsländer nära ekvatorn, är akvakultur och fiskerinäring en viktig inkomstkälla för miljontals människor. Dessutom utgör exportindustrin av odlade akvatiska organismer, t.ex. jätteräkor, en viktig del av landets finansiella intäkter. I denna delen av världen är musslor och ostron den huvudsakliga proteinkällan för många fattiga människor som lever längs kusterna. Under senare år har man haft mycket problem med marint vattenbruk. Sjukdomsalstrande bakterier, virus och algtoxiner har angripit de odlade räkorna. Följden har blivit att man matar djuren med antibiotika som ger antibiotika resistens på sikt, eller behandlar vattnet i dammarna med kemikalier som är skadliga för omgivningen. Sri Lankesiska myndigheter förespråkar därför mussel och ostronodling som ett miljövänligt alternativ som genererar protein till befolkningen och exportinkomster till företag och nationen. Men för att detta ska fungera så krävs övervakning, med fokus på utbredning och tillväxt av giftiga växtplanktonarter. Klimatmodeller för det kommande seklet förutspår ökad temperatur och nederbörd. Teoretiska modeller förutspår att effekterna av dessa förändringar blir som störst i tropiska områden som redan idag får stora mängder nederbörd. Sri Lanka är ett sådant område. Ett framtida scenario för regionen är ökad nederbörd och avrinning, högre närsaltsbelastning och skarpare språngskikt i vattenpelaren mellan salt marint vatten, och sött vatten från land. Detta är scenarion som experimentellt har visat sig mycket gynnsamma för dinoflagellater, som är alggruppen som innehåller många toxinproducerande arter, jämfört med kiselalger, som är den största gruppen primärproducenter i den marina pelagialen och som innefattar mycket få arter som producerar toxiner. Ett sötare ytvatten och varmare temperatur är dessutom faktorer som gynnar tillväxten av marina patogena bakterier av exempelvis släktet Vibrio, där Vibrio cholerae, bakterien som orsakar diarrésjukdomen kolera, är den mest fruktade. Följaktligen så förutspås att intensiteten och frekvensen av skadliga alg- och bakterieblomningar längs Sri Lankas kuster kommer att öka.

De facto costs of obtaining licenses and permits in developing countries, for individuals and for society, and the effects from bureaucratic reform on citizens de facto access to the bureaucracy. The project uses the implementation of a bureaucracy reform in Brazil, i.e. Citizen Service Centres (PoupaTempo), in order to study these two questions. It involves the analysis of existing Brazilian data as well as original data collection over a two-year period. Preliminary work shows that São Paulo is a proper place for data collection, as intermediary use is quite common. It is likely that PoupaTempo has resulted in less intermediary use, reduced time costs at the bureaucracy and potentially better access for low-income citizens.

The project uses the implementation of a bureaucracy reform in Brazil, i.e. Citizen Service Centres (PoupaTempo), in order to study these two questions. It involves the analysis of existing Brazilian data as well as original data collection over a two-year period. Preliminary work shows that São Paulo is a proper place for data collection, as intermediary use is quite common. It is likely that PoupaTempo has resulted in less intermediary use, reduced time costs at the bureaucracy and potentially better access for low-income citizens.

Using unique data we will compare a treatment group with a control group of farmers that have been exposed to a donor-financed agricultural sector program in Kenya. In addition to the micro-analysis the project will also explore the broader impact using an economy-wide multi-sectoral model. In both the micro and the sectoral model approach distributional, gender and poverty effects will be discussed.

It is believed that a climate-sensitive planning can minimize negative consequences of urbanization and climate change and enhance the possibilities to use solar energy. This project will investigate the consequences of current urban regulations on land use, energy use, microclimate and solar access and suggest how these regulations could be modified. The methods include interviews, microclimate measurements, simulations of microclimate and solar energy potential. The project is expected to lead to increased local knowledge and to higher building densities and increased solar potential in Dar es Salaam in the future. This will benefit the urban poor through improved microclimate, cheaper infrastructure and transports and better access to electricity.

Previous research shows a relative absence of such an approach, but it also tentatively shows a positive impact when it has been pursued. Working with a structured multiple case-study approach, the three cases focus on: i) nature of local government reform in light of sustainable peace; ii) the impact of local government on peacebuilding, statebuilding and deepened democracy; iii) the policies that lead to the attained impact.

Many hopes and investments rest upon the young African scientists that undergo scientific training abroad and subsequently return to their home countries. However, detailed case studies of their experiences are surprisingly few. This study examines the situation of scientists that return to three African countries. It focuses on two fields of science that are particularly relevant to sustainable development and improved qualities of life: agricultural science and the science of infectious diseases. Theories from science and technology studies as well as economic anthropology are combined with qualitative and quantitative methods to carry out a comparative and multisited study.

It focuses on two fields of science that are particularly relevant to sustainable development and improved qualities of life: agricultural science and the science of infectious diseases. Theories from science and technology studies as well as economic anthropology are combined with qualitative and quantitative methods to carry out a comparative and multisited study.

The lack of adequate management of urban organic waste (including human and animal manure) is in manylow-income countries a serious problem, spreading diseases and contaminating water sources. In order to make the organic waste management sustainable it has to be financially favorable. In this project two systems for converting organic waste into protein rich animal feed and high value fertilisers. The larvae of the tropical black soldier fly combined with earth worms can consume large amounts of waste and convert it into biomass of high protein content. The systems will be evaluated regarding its potential to process organic matter, reduce pathogens, produce proteins, recover nutrients and its material flow and environmental impact. The most promising system will be implemented as a pilot plant in collaboration with Makerere University, Uganda for on site evaluation. From Waste to Worth.

First, what determines where the acquisitions are taking place, their size when they do take place, and what characterizes the countries from which the investors come will be investigate using a macro-level approach. Second, how small-scale farmers in Zambia adapt to the introduction of larger farms will be investigated using a micro-level approach. Since Zambia during the last decade attracted large quantities of agricultural FDI of several different kinds it is very well suited as a case. Preliminary work indicates that large-scale land deals results are more likely in countries that are poor and closer to the sea or a navigable river.

Bio-char attracts attention for its potential to sequester C and enhance soil fertility. The objective is to bring evidence on the role bio-char can play in small-holder farming systems. The hypothesis is that crop productivity and energy availability can be improved through introduction of biochar-producing stoves and use of biochar in soils, even when considering alternative uses of organic resources and labour. This will be tested by studying (1) organic resource availability and current use (2) energy efficiency and emissions when cooking and producing biochar (3) effects of different quality bio-char on crop productivity and soil biological, chemical and physical processes and (4) the socio-economic challenges of production and use of bio-char. Results will be used to propose better ways to use farm organic resources for improved impacts on energy, farm output and soil health.

Greatest losses are usually considered to be inflicted on the poorer producers who are less likely to implement prevention and control strategies, but few or no proper attempts to assess and quantify the impacts have been made. Nor has any proper analysis been performed on the effect and feasibility of interventions. This project will undertake an economic analysis of the pig production in in Uganda, to assess the economic impact of ASF, prevention and control. A participatory approach will be used also to assess the feasibility of available intervention strategies in the different production settings, and to understand drivers of compliance vs non-compliance.

Cross- and within-case comparisons, framed around how the formulation process proceeds, how different actors perform, and what room for interpretation policy content allows, will yield in-depth case specific findings and comprehensive insights, aiming at theory development.

Worldwide, the problem of HIV infection is complicated by the occurrence of many infections caused by bacteria and fungi, increasing the number of HIV/AIDS cases that has raised the demand for medical care and hence created a burden to the available limited health budgets. This necessitates continued effort to search for natural medicines of plant origin. The targeted plant species are those claimed traditionally to infection diseases. The project will involve ethnomedical survey, extracts preparation, bio-guided isolation of active ingredients and standardization of herbal drugs, to be done at ITM-MUHAS. Further purification and structural determination of isolated active compounds which requires access to preparative HPLC systems and advanced Spectroscopic facilities, will be done at the University of Stockholm (SU). Furthermore, synthesis of active molecules and their analogues (SU), will give better understanding of the structure activity relationship (SAR) of the target molecules. This project aims to assess a clinical scoring system for evaluation of immunosuppression in HIV-infected patients with tuberculosis (TB) in Ethiopia. The score contains 15 items based on clinical examination. Results of scoring will be correlated with CD4 cell counts, recommended CD4 cut-off levels for initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) and TB treatment outcome. At diagnosis of TB, patients will undergo HIV testing and clinical scoring. HIV-positive participants will be followed longitudinally with repeated scoring and CD4 cell testing. HIV-negative TB patients will serve as a control group. Blood for further immunological analyses will be collected. Finding simple alternative methods for assessment of TB/HIV co-infected patients could improve management and facilitate scaling up of ART and integration to peripheral levels of the health care system in resource-limited settings.

The country is the second largest silk manufacturer contributing to 18% of the total raw silk production after China. It is, however, only a fraction of the raw silk that is use in the high end to middle range textile industry. The remaining raw silk and waste silk is left under-exploited. It is therefore the aim of this project to valorise this remainder of raw silk by transforming it into functional fibres nanocomposites. The method used is supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2); scCO2 is a green technology that enables, in this case, the solubilization and safe impregnation of active metal oxide into silk fibres to form nanocomposites. The combination of metal oxide such as titanium or silver can impart to the fibres antibacterial, electrical and/or magnetic properties with application to low cost decontamination pads, visual sensing of contaminants and as economical components in the detection of clinical and environmental analytes. Overall, the activities and results of this project will significantly increase the possibilities of technological advancement as well as value addition to the silk industry. This project addresses the use of new scientific tools to economic and environmental growth of the masses In many developing countries there is a significant deficit of water, which may increase with the climate change. Projects aimed at increasing groundwater sources form a part of the efforts to meet the United Nations Millenium Development Goals. However, these projects often fail due to the lack of knowledge of the geo-hydrological conditions. With this proposal, focusing on groundwater problems in Mozambique, the hypothesis of a successful use of Magnetic Resonance Sounding (MRS) and a new technique of MRS to provide reliable hydro-geological parameters for deep seated groundwater aquifers and aquifers in magnetic rocks, will be tested. This will be followed by a hydro-geological characterization of different geological environments and an assessment of the quality of the groundwater. The results may form a guide for future groundwater exploration in Mozambique.

A high-resolution prediction model will be developed that enables specific counter measures specifically directed to the affected areas and stakeholders. The model will be built on translational research including sustainable relationship between environment and biological life and cultural and equality factors and will deploy a multidisciplinary team of specialists to set up a strategy towards prevention and control.

There are no vaccines or cures for the chronic phase of the disease so programmes rely on killing the insect vectors. We aim at developing a trap for the insects that transmits this lethal disease by using the same substances as these insects use in order to aggregate prior to mating. The first goal, to identify these attracting substances is well under way (we have published 5 papers) and the next step is to make and test these compounds in behavioural assays.

Our results could lead to a re-evaluation of current aid development strategies.

In the South this is poorly understood. This project studies the implications for marginal urban groups of strategies being adopted by governments in African cities to promote economic growth and to reinvent the image of cities. Central questions will address how specific strategies of city visioning and boosterism impact on the ability of groups of the urban poor to access economic opportunities; the extent to which the strategies necessitate or unintentionally result in the displacement of groups in already precarious situations; and, crucially, how affected groups respond to these developments. The study will generate new insights into consequences of implementing urban planning ideals aimed to develop African cities economically and generate processes of socio-economic inclusion.

The disease mechanisms are poorly understood, largely due to the lack of adequate animal models. We propose to use a placental perfusion model to study the interaction between malaria parasites accumulated in the human placenta in relation to the development of preeclampsia with ot without intrauterine growth restriction. The studies will also provide immediate guidance for ongoing efforts to develop a vaccine, protecting women from pregnancy malaria, and basic insight about the disease processes, which can lead to new treatment and prevention strategies for these complicated pregnancies affecting women in the sub-Saharan region. The specific aims of this project are to uncover common disease mechanisms behind PE with or without IUGR and pregnancy-associated malaria (PAM); to enable predictive diagnosis of high risk cases in the field; to prove feasibility of a cure using A1M in perfusion experiments. This work involves personnel and high risk pregnancy patients from Kenya, Egypt, Tanzania, and Ghana. The research is a socio-economic and institutional analysis of how the capacity of people to adapt to environmental change is affected by ongoing trends of privatization of natural resources. The research takes its point of departure in the Vietnamese context, with a comparative discussion on other countries in Southeast Asia. The research will be done in the context of a post doc position at the Stockholm Environment Institute Asia, located in Bangkok, and will be conducted in cooperation with researchers involved in analysis of adaptation to climate change.

The challenges have to do with Plasmodium vivax. Islands provide natural ecological experiments and a great potential for intervention studies. On Aneityum island, Vanuatu both P. falciparum and P. vivax malaria were eliminated with short-term mass drug administration (MDA) in 1991 and sustained case surveillance and vector control with a high degree of community participation. I intend to i) assess whether malaria freedom can be sustained and ii) examine the applicability of the proposed elimination strategy at the natural endemic margin to larger areas. For its evaluation annual malariometric surveys of the entire population on Aneityum will be continued in comparison with six Vanuatu islands with variable malaria transmission. I specifically aim to: 1) investigate resurgence and relate them to anti-malaria immune responses and parasite antigen diversities, 2) examine the strategy of radical MDA in concert with vector control to eliminate P. vivax infections in selected islands, 3) assess feasibility of sustainable community commitment after malaria elimination and impacts of malaria elimination on people?s gains, tourism and community development. The outcomes can serve as a model for the proposal of community-directed strategies towards sustainable malaria freedom to follow the short-term push by external donors, particularly for the areas where P. vivax can be a concern. Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), one of the most common causes of acute diarrhoea in developing countries, produce two main groups of virulence factors; colonization factors (CFs) and enterotoxins (ST and/or LT). The aim of this project is to study the genetic variability, infection patterns and antibiotic resistance of ETEC from several countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America as a basis for planned interventions and prophylaxis strategies, focusing on emerging toxin/CF profiles. This will be performed by Multi Locus Sequence Typing (MLST) of strains to be isolated from patients at hospitals in Bangladesh (ICDDR,B), Bolivia and Mozambique, and of strains from several other countries; sequencing of the toxin and CF genes, and correlation of the genetic findings and antibiotic resistance profiles with severity of disease, patient age, seasonality, and socioeconomic factors.

Based on this view, large funds have been channeled to NGOs with the assumption that NGOs can advance development and stimulate democracy. Where corruption is the social norm due to the lack of appropriate rules, empirical evidence does not correspond to social capital theory. There is often a discrepancy between the assumed role of NGOs according to the premises of social capital and their behavior that has been described as being corrupt and self-serving. There is however no conducted studies to explain from a theoretical point of view why NGOs often perform the way described. Thus our research aims to bridge this academic gap. We put forward and examine the applicability of game theory to explain the behavior of NGOs. We explore the different rationales of NGOs in relation to their specific context. The research is designed as case studies and will use the described qualitative and quantitative methods. We aim to contribute to theoretical development of our understanding of civil society, in particular regarding the role of the social context and linking theory with practice. The research will also generate knowledge for policy measures on the usefulness of aid to fulfill the purposes of advancing development and democracy goals. Drawing on different theoretical perspectives, the project explores the institutional and power constellations influencing the ability of the states of Bolivia, Argentina and Paraguay to fight land degradation in the Gran Chaco Americano, the largest dry forests in South America. These countries share many historical and cultural features and the same environmental objective, while they differ as regards theoretically relevant variables as their degree of decentralization. By means of within-country and cross-country analysis, the study will provide empirical insights on the characteristics and implications of state involvement in the region and contribute to theoretical development regarding the conditions and implications of institutional interplay for environmental protection in complex ecosystems. The study will, hopefully, have practical significance for policy-making in the region.

The present project addresses the question *When do international and local initiatives of democratization reinforce each other?* It includes case studies on external democracy promotion, as well as local initiatives to improve governance. Since the 1990s, democracy promotion has become an integral part of international interventions of peacebuilding and security. At the same time, there is debate on whether or not democracy can be introduced from the outside, or whether international democracy promotion rather undermines local initiatives for sustainable democracy. This project investigates this topic through analysis of international and local projects in selected regions to understand how these two types of initiatives affect democratization in aid recipient countries. The influences of these efforts of democratization on each other are analyzed through comparative case analysis both within countries and between different international interventions. The project contributes with new empirical knowledge on external aid to loal processes of democratization by enhancing the understanding of what happens to local processes when democracy promotion is introduced from the outside. Thus, the project is valuable for the design and implementation of future international interventions, and moves the research field forward. Detta projekt undersöker frågan om när internationella och lokala processer för att främja demokratisering och utveckling förstärker varandra. Det inkluderar flera fallstudier av internationella och lokala initiativ för att främja demokratisering i länder såsom Afganistan, Bosnien-Herzegovina, Sydafrika och Somalia. Studien består i att undersöka hur internationalla och lokala initiativ påverkar varandra och hur internationellt stöd påverkar den lokala demokratiutvecklingen. Detta undersöks främst genom analys av policy-dokument och genom intervjuer i de länder som är mottagare av det internationella stödet. Intervjupersonerna inkluderar praktiker som arbetar i det lokala civilsamhället, internationella biståndsarbetare och militärer, traditionella ledare såsom hövdingar, lokala och nationella politiker samt byråkrater. Projektet utgår ifrån den stora politiska och akademiska debatten kring internationella interventioner för att bygga fred och demokrati. Sedan 1990-talet har demokratifrämjande åtgärder ingått som en central del i både utvecklingsbistånd och i FN-stödda militära insater. Samtidigt råder det oklarhet kring om demokrati kan introduceras utifrån, eller om internationellt bistånd snarare underminerar varaktig demokratisering. Erfarenheter från demokratistöd till länder såsom Japan, Västtyskland och Italien visar visserligen att detta kan bidra till demokratisering, men i dagens mottagarländer ser villkoren annorlunda ut. Flera av dessa är låginkomstländer och många har dessutom nyligen genomgått ett inbördeskrig och lider fortfarande av sviterna efter detta. Det är vanligt att samhällena fortsätter att vara uppdelade längs de forna konfliktlinjerna också efter det att inbördeskriget avslutats. Det kan innebära att etniskt ursprung, språk eller religion avgör hur människor röstar och även hur de organiserar sig socialt. Skolor och sportklubbar är ofta uppdelade. Det kan också gälla organisationer och nätverk som arbetar för demokratisering och fredsbyggande. Internationella insatser kan innebära att maktbalansen i samhället påverkas genom att den ena sidans nätverk och organisationer får mer stöd än andra. Projektet syftar till att bidra med ny kunskap om hur internationella insatser påverkar lokala demokratiseringsprocesser, både teoretiskt och empiriskt. Teoretiskt avser projektet att identifiera villkor för när internationella och lokala processer kan förstärka varandra. Empiriskt avser projektet att identifiera och anlysera även fall av demokratisering som tidigare inte undersökts i ett jämförande perspektiv. Det är en utmaning för forskningen att förstå hur lokalsamhällen fungerar, och särskilt att finna lokala processer som inte följer det västerländska mallen för hur civilsamhället är organiserat. Kunskap om detta är värdefull vid planering av framtida internationella insatser för utveckling och demokratisering i våldsdrabbade länder.

Att uppnå millenniemålet för sanitet har visat sig vara en övermäktig utmaning. Medans andelen människor i världen som saknar tillgång till drägligt vatten har redan halverats, går utökningen av sanitetstjänster och ökad tillgång till toaletter mycket trögt. I Afrika söder om Sahara, där hela 70% av befolkningen fortfarande inte tillgång till en dräglig toalett, delar man faciliteter med många andra, eller så använder man helt odrägliga eller inga toaletter alls. Det finns många orsaker till att sanitetssektorn fungerar dåligt. Dels så är det i många länder oklart var ansvaret för sanitet och närmiljö ligger. Ofta decentraliseras ansvaret till lokala myndigheter med låg kapacitet och små resurser. Dessutom är det så att utanför urbana centra så sköter hushållen för det mesta sin egen sanitet. Det vill säga, man förlitar sig inte på några centralstyrda avloppssystem utan den vanligaste lösningen är enskilda latriner. Ofta brister kunskaperna om hur man bör bygga, och underhållet lider ofta av att eventuella tjänster för tömning och underhåll är dyra eller svåråtkomliga. Om toaletten luktar illa så vill man ha den långt ifrån bostaden. Å andra sidan kan det vara farligt att gå ut för att besöka toaletten när det är mörkt. Detta drabbar särskilt kvinnor. Denna forskning jämför hur man hanterar dessa frågor i Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, och Burundi. Alla länderna har stora landsortsbefolkningar, men de har lyckats olika vad gäller befolkningens tillgång till dräglig sanitet. I Rwanda har utvecklingen gått snabbt under de senaste åren och hela 55% av befolkningen där har tillgång till så kallad förbättrad sanitet. Preliminära resultat visar på en tydligare styrning från högsta ort vad gäller normer och deras efterlevnad i Rwanda. I Tanzania har sanitetstillgången legat kvar på en låg nivå, med bara 10% av befolkningen som använder toaletter som uppskattas vara säkra och ändamålsenliga. Decentraliseringen av statsbyråkratin där har också kombinerats med tydliga prestationskrav och större medel för investeringar på lokal nivå. I Tanzania har man också decentraliserat, men ser mer till att möta efterfrågan snarare än att driva igenom krav på miljö-och boendestandards. Sanitet i Uganda är huvudsakligen styrd av statens policys och reglerande funktioner och hushåll ordnar tillgången till sanitetsfaciliteter själva. I Burundi förklaras avsaknaden av nationell hygien- och sanitetspolicy med brist på politisk vilja och prioritering av ämnet. Procentandelen av Burundis befolkning som hade tillgång till förbättrad sanitet år 2010 var 46%. Vad är det som skiljer länderna? Det som projektet ska ta reda på är vilken politik eller normer som i praktiken påverkar hushållens vilja att investera i säkra toaletter och se till att hygienbeteendet inte tillåter att sjukdomar sprids. Intervjuundersökningar i olika områden två i Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, och Burundi, som representerar rurala och semi-urbana miljöer, ska visa på hur saniteten ser ut. Vilka sorters toaletter används, och hur? Vilka sanitetstjänster finns, och vilka behövs? Vad kostar det? Och hur står det till med hälsan och eventuella diarrésjukdomar? Dessa undersökningar kompletteras med djupintervjuer där enskilda personer berättar om hur de tänker kring sanitetsfrågor: Hur har de själva löst sina problem?

Starting a business entails learning and risk taking, implying that project returns can be backloaded or uncertain. Also, indivisible start-up costs often require large investments. Meanwhile, features of the standard debt contract, such as a constant repayment stream and caps on the initial loan, may distort investment toward inputs that involve less learning, less uncertainty, and smaller projects; hampering firm growth. Together with BRAC Uganda´s lending program we study the effect of the credit terms on starting firms´ input use, profits, and repayment performance. Using a randomized controlled trial design we offer different repayment schemes, indivisible goods´ subsidies, or advice on how to shorten the learning process to test if the standard contract restricts firms that face indivisible costs or are plagued by backloaded or uncertain returns. The project will provide unique evidence on the constraints caused by the interaction of financial structure and technology use that complements the recent emphasis on access to finance. A better grasp of the economic impact of debt design offers insights to entrepreneurial behavior both in developing and developed markets.

Starting a business entails learning and risk taking, implying that project returns can be backloaded or uncertain. Also, indivisible start-up costs often require large investments. Meanwhile, features of the standard debt contract, such as a constant repayment stream and caps on the initial loan, may distort investment toward inputs that involve less learning, less uncertainty, and smaller projects; hampering firm growth. Together with BRAC Uganda´s lending program we study the effect of the credit terms on starting firms´ input use, profits, and repayment performance. Using a randomized controlled trial design we offer different repayment schemes, indivisible goods´ subsidies, or advice on how to shorten the learning process to test if the standard contract restricts firms that face indivisible costs or are plagued by backloaded or uncertain returns. The project will provide unique evidence on the constraints caused by the interaction of financial structure and technology use that complements the recent emphasis on access to finance. A better grasp of the economic impact of debt design offers insights to entrepreneurial behavior both in developing and developed markets. Also, shedding light on contractual mechanisms that affect business investments is important to guide policies aimed at firm growth, especially given the development community´s focus on credit programs.

Vad händer i en molnskog utan moln? Tropiska regnskogar i bergiga områden bidrar med ett flertal viktiga ekosystemtjänster, både till mänskliga populationer lokalt samt till regeringar och därför på nationell nivå, såsom biodiversitet, vattenreglering och kolbinding. Dessa ekosystem kallas ofta för molnskogar eftersom de nästan alltid är omringade av ett tjockt molntäcke. Men detta kan komma att förändras i och med klimatförändringar. En förväntad global uppvärmning kommer troligen leda till att höjden där moln bildas i tropiska berg ökar. Detta kommer i sin tur betyda att stora områden molnskog kan plötsligt stå inför ovanligt torra och molnfria förhållanden. Eftersom dessa ekosystem sällan har upplevt vattenbrist är det troligt att de inte har någon förmåga att anpassa sig till dessa nya förhållanden, vilket kan ha stora konsekvenser för skogliga ekosystemtjänster.

Detta experiment syftar till att skapa de förutspådda framtida förhållandena i en molnskog i Anderna i Peru, Sydamerika.

The Portuguese who leave for Angola and Cabo Verde are motivated by the strong economic growth in these countries in combination with the crisis in Portugal. The aim of this project is to explore the dynamics and experiences of the recent Portuguese-African labour migration, focusing on the migrants´ potential contribution to development in the form of human and social capital. These kinds of capital include knowledge, skills, experiences and connections to transnational social networks. The main methods of data collection are participant observation and open-ended interviews. Analytically, the project departs from the field of migration and development studies. Contemporary European labour migration to Africa represents something totally new in relation to this field, which implies that the project fills a gap in current research. The project analyses how the Portuguese migrants experience their integration into the receiving societies and their contribution to these. It also explores how the migrants negotiate the changing power dynamics in relation to the Angolans/Cabo Verdeans they meet in their working life. Furthermore the project analyses how these Angolans and Cabo Verdeans understand the Portuguese migrants´ integration into the host societies and their potential contribution to development. För första gången i Afrikas postkoloniala historia söker en stor skara medborgare i en före detta kolonialmakt förbättrade levnadsvillkor i de forna kolonierna. Ungefär 125.000 portugiser har de senaste åren migrerat till Angola, och 15.000 till Kap Verde. Den långa kön utanför Angolas konsulat i Lissabon är en tydlig signal på att en ny epok inträtt. Bakgrunden till denna utveckling är den starka makroekonomiska tillväxten i Angola och Kap Verde i kombination med den ekonomiska krisen i Portugal. Det tvingande behovet av att skaffa sig en säker inkomst delar de portugisiska migranterna med arbetskraftsmigranter över hela världen. I detta fall sammanfaller emellertid den ekonomiska utsattheten med en position av symbolisk överlägsenhet som har sina rötter i den portugisiska koloniala identiteten. Vidare har Portugal under de senaste årtiondena byggt upp utvecklingssamarbeten med de forna afrikanska kolonierna och sänt ut *experter* för att leda dessa samarbeten. Denna roll som utvecklingsexperter verkar delvis prägla de nya portugisiska migranternas syn på sig själva. Det grundläggande syftet med projektet är att undersöka de portugisiska migranternas eventuella bidrag till utveckling i Angola och Kap Verde genom överföring av socialt kapital och humankapital. Med socialt kapital avses band till transnationella sociala nätverk som kan vara av betydelse för utveckling. Humankapital handlar om migranternas kunskaper, färdigheter och erfarenheter. Projektet är fokuserat på följande forskningsfrågor: -Hur upplever de portugisiska migranterna sin integration i de afrikanska mottagarländerna och sina eventuella bidrag i form av socialt kapital och humankapital? -Hur förhandlar de portugisiska migranterna sin identitet i förhållande till de angolaner / kapverdier de möter i arbetslivet, och hur förstår och hanterar migranterna de förändrade maktförhållandena? -Hur ser angolaner / kapverdier som arbetar med de portugisiska migranterna på a) migranternas bidrag i form av socialt kapital och humankapital, b) deras förändrade identitet och maktposition, c) deras integration. I relation till specifika forskningsfält anknyter projektet till migrations- och utvecklingsstudier i kombination med en postkolonial ansats. Inom migrationsstudier finns det en mycket omfattande forskning kring arbetskrafts- / ekonomisk migration från utvecklingsländer till Europa, men ingenting är publicerat om migration i den motsatta riktningen. Beträffande samband mellan migration och utveckling är existerande forskning helt fokuserad på hur migranter från utvecklingsländer kan bidra till utveckling i sina ursprungsländer. Samtida europeisk arbetskraftsmigration till Afrika är ett outforskat tema, liksom frågor kring vad denna typ av migration kan bidra med i termer av överföring av socialt kapital och humankapital. Projektet pågår i tre år och fokuserar på migranter i Benguela (Angola) och Mindelo (Kap Verde). De viktigaste metoderna för materialinsamling är deltagande observation och intervjuer. Deltagande observation genomförs på klubbar och i andra sociala sammanhang där portugisiska migranterna möts, samt i deras hem och på deras arbetsplatser. För intervjuer görs ett urval av 30-40 migranter i vardera Angola och Kap Verde och dessa intervjuas vid upprepade tillfällen 2014-2016. Intervjuerna fokuserar på 1. migranternas syn på vilka nya former av socialt kapital och humankapital som de eventuellt bidrar med, 2. migranternas syn på de viktigaste sociala och kulturella skillnaderna mellan Portugal och Angola / Kap Verde och på hur de själva förhåller sig till dessa, 3 migranternas syn på sin identitet och på sin situation som arbetskraftsmigranter i de forna kolonierna. Projektet intervjuar också migranternas arbetskamrater om deras syn på portugisernas roll i förhållande till den utveckling som äger rum i Angola / Kap Verde och om de skiftande maktrelationerna mellan dem själva och portugiserna.

Ungefär 125.000 portugiser har de senaste åren migrerat till Angola, och 15.000 till Kap Verde. Den långa kön utanför Angolas konsulat i Lissabon är en tydlig signal på att en ny epok inträtt. Bakgrunden till denna utveckling är den starka makroekonomiska tillväxten i Angola och Kap Verde i kombination med den ekonomiska krisen i Portugal. Det tvingande behovet av att skaffa sig en säker inkomst delar de portugisiska migranterna med arbetskraftsmigranter över hela världen. I detta fall sammanfaller emellertid den ekonomiska utsattheten med en position av symbolisk överlägsenhet som har sina rötter i den portugisiska koloniala identiteten. Vidare har Portugal under de senaste årtiondena byggt upp utvecklingssamarbeten med de forna afrikanska kolonierna och sänt ut *experter* för att leda dessa samarbeten. Denna roll som utvecklingsexperter verkar delvis prägla de nya portugisiska migranternas syn på sig själva. Det grundläggande syftet med projektet är att undersöka de portugisiska migranternas eventuella bidrag till utveckling i Angola och Kap Verde genom överföring av socialt kapital och humankapital. Med socialt kapital avses band till transnationella sociala nätverk som kan vara av betydelse för utveckling. Humankapital handlar om migranternas kunskaper, färdigheter och erfarenheter. Projektet är fokuserat på följande forskningsfrågor: -Hur upplever de portugisiska migranterna sin integration i de afrikanska mottagarländerna och sina eventuella bidrag i form av socialt kapital och humankapital? -Hur förhandlar de portugisiska migranterna sin identitet i förhållande till de angolaner / kapverdier de möter i arbetslivet, och hur förstår och hanterar migranterna de förändrade maktförhållandena? -Hur ser angolaner / kapverdier som arbetar med de portugisiska migranterna på a) migranternas bidrag i form av socialt kapital och humankapital, b) deras förändrade identitet och maktposition, c) deras integration. I relation till specifika forskningsfält anknyter projektet till migrations- och utvecklingsstudier i kombination med en postkolonial ansats. Inom migrationsstudier finns det en mycket omfattande forskning kring arbetskrafts- / ekonomisk migration från utvecklingsländer till Europa, men ingenting är publicerat om migration i den motsatta riktningen. Beträffande samband mellan migration och utveckling är existerande forskning helt fokuserad på hur migranter från utvecklingsländer kan bidra till utveckling i sina ursprungsländer. Samtida europeisk arbetskraftsmigration till Afrika är ett outforskat tema, liksom frågor kring vad denna typ av migration kan bidra med i termer av överföring av socialt kapital och humankapital. Projektet pågår i tre år och fokuserar på migranter i Benguela (Angola) och Mindelo (Kap Verde). De viktigaste metoderna för materialinsamling är deltagande observation och intervjuer. Deltagande observation genomförs på klubbar och i andra sociala sammanhang där portugisiska migranterna möts, samt i deras hem och på deras arbetsplatser. För intervjuer görs ett urval av 30-40 migranter i vardera Angola och Kap Verde och dessa intervjuas vid upprepade tillfällen 2014-2016. Intervjuerna fokuserar på 1. migranternas syn på vilka nya former av socialt kapital och humankapital som de eventuellt bidrar med, 2. migranternas syn på de viktigaste sociala och kulturella skillnaderna mellan Portugal och Angola / Kap Verde och på hur de själva förhåller sig till dessa, 3 migranternas syn på sin identitet och på sin situation som arbetskraftsmigranter i de forna kolonierna. Projektet intervjuar också migranternas arbetskamrater om deras syn på portugisernas roll i förhållande till den utveckling som äger rum i Angola / Kap Verde och om de skiftande maktrelationerna mellan dem själva och portugiserna.

Peste des petits ruminants hos får, getter och vilda idisslare - ökad förståelse av utbredning och sjukdomsmekanismer kan leda till bättre levnadsvillkor för småbrukare i Tanzania och Pakistan Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) är en smittsam virussjukdom hos får, getter och andra små idisslare som främst drabbar de fattigaste människorna i de fattigaste länderna i världen. Får och getter är nämligen vanliga husdjur i små lantbruk och för eget husbehov i Afrika, Mellanöstern och Asien, områden där PPR är vanligt förekommande och därmed drabbar extra hårt. Djuren sköts ofta av kvinnor och småbruket utgör en stor extrainkomst för dem och deras familjer, avgörande för deras dagliga överlevnad och ett viktigt led i demokrati- och jämlikhetsutvecklingen då kvinnor får en egen inkomst. Smittsamma sjukdomar såsom PPR utgör emellertid allvarliga hinder för vidareutveckling av småbruken och har beskrivits som en viktig faktor som kan leda till kronisk fattigdom bland småbrukare. PPR orsakas av PPR virus (PPRV), som är ett morbillivirus likt mässlingsvirus och framför allt boskapspestvirus (Rinderpestvirus, RPV). RPV orsakade liknande symtom som PPRV (feber, ödem, blåsor och skador i slemhinnor, diarré, minskad mjölkproduktion, akut död och hög dödlighet) fast hos nötboskap. Nyligen förklarades RPV utrotat, vilket betyder att det är den andra allvarliga virussjukdomen som utrotats efter smittkoppor hos människa. Viktiga anledningar till att RPV lyckosamt utrotades var tillgången till enkla och effektiva vacciner, att det endast var en kort tid då infekterade djur spred smitta och då enbart genom nära kontakt, samt ekonomiska incitament för att fullfölja ett utrotningsprogram på lokal och nationell nivå. PPR fortsätter dock att sprida sig snabbt trots tillgång till vaccin och bra diagnostik. Sjukdomen har spridit sig till Nordafrika och Turkiet, nära EU:s gränser, och hotar även att sprida sig allt längre söderut i Afrika. Vilda idisslares roll för smittspridning är ännu oklar, men PPRV har nyligen påvisats i bl a vilda getter i Tibet, Pakistan och Kurdistan, samt i antiloper i Tanzania. En viktig fråga att besvara är därför om vilda idisslare kan bli sjuka och/eller sprida virus till tamboskap. Forskningsprojektets övergripande mål är därför att klargöra den nuvarande situationen för PPRV hos både tama och vilda små idisslare i Tanzania och Pakistan genom att föra samman ett tvärvetenskapligt och multinationellt team med forskare inom virologi, epidemiologi, immunogenetik och evolutionsbiologi. Specifika mål för projektet är att: i) identifiera särskilt intressanta och viktiga områden där vilda och tama idisslare interagerar med varandra och utvärdera betydelsen av detta för smittspridning; ii) förstå och övervaka hur PPRV utvecklas genetiskt baserat på sekvensering av hela arvsmassan; iii) förstå varför vilda och tama idisslare har olika sjukdomsmottaglighet; iv) bestämma genuttrycket hos infekterade djur för att förstå skillnader i immunsvar och sjukdomsutveckling mellan olika djurarter, samt att v) förklara vilka funktioner vissa PPRV-proteiner har och deras roll för sjukdomsutveckling. Sådan kunskap som projektet ämnar leda till är viktiga och fundamentala för att kunna utveckla bättre vacciner och bättre kontrollstrategier för att bekämpa PPRV.

This bleak picture is not all-embracing, however. Surrounded by seven neighbors plagued by conflicts, Botswana, Malawi and Zambia constitute a ´Zone of Peace´ spared from violent conflict since independence. This ´Zone of Peace´ comprises 73% of the African population spared from conflict since the end of World War II. This project aims to explain why peace has prevailed in these three countries, despite their location in the world´s most volatile continent and with all their neighbors struck by conflict. In doing so we are looking for causes of peace. Contemporary peace and conflict research focuses on causes of war and conflict resolution. Causes of peace however are understudied. This is unfortunate as such a focus can generate profound insights about peace as it asks new questions which may highlight factors previously overlooked. We will examine this puzzle from a bottom-up approach and see if the ´Zone of Peace´ can be explained by the structure of civic life or by local conflict-resolution mechanisms. Despite the peace they share, Botswana, Malawi and Zambia vary substantially in regards to many factors emphasized as causes of conflict in previous research such as population size, poverty, institutional stability, resources, and ethnic composition. This makes Mill´s method of agreement a suitable methodological approach for this project. Afrika är världens mest konfliktdrabbade kontinent och har upplevt en tredjedel av alla krig som brutit ut sedan andra världskriget. Afrika har även drabbats av 75 % av alla konflikter mellan icke-statliga grupper sedan slutet av kalla kriget. Dessutom har nio av tio, som dött i våld som avsiktligt riktar sig mot civila, såsom folkmord, etnisk rensning och massakrer, varit afrikaner. Denna negativa bild är dock inte allomfattande. Botswana, Malawi och Zambia är omringade av sju länder som drabbats av konflikter, men utgör själva en ?fredszon? helt förskonad från väpnad konflikt sedan de blev självständiga för 50 år sedan. Sedan slutet av andra världskriget har endast tio afrikanska länder varit skonade från krig. Den totala befolkningen hos dessa tio länder är 44 miljoner. Utav dessa bor 32 miljoner (73 %) i Botswana, Malawi och Zambia. Trots den fred de delar så skiljer sig Botswana, Malawi och Zambia avsevärt åt på flera punkter som är identifierade i tidigare forskning som viktiga orsaker till krig. Bland annat skiljer sig länderna betydligt åt när det gäller befolkningsstorlek, fattigdom, institutionell stabilitet, resurser, och etnisk sammansättning. Detta gör ?fredszonen? än mer anmärkningsvärd. Målet med detta projekt är att förklara varför fred har rått i dessa tre länder trots att de är del av den kontinent som är värst drabbad av konflikt och trots att alla deras grannländer har plågats av konflikt. I och med det söker vi orsakertill fred. Freds- och konfliktforskningen uppstod som ett forskningsfält dedikerat till att förstå orsakerna till krig genom att systematiskt analysera de historiska erfarenheterna från krig. Dagens freds- och konfliktforskning fokuserar på orsaker till krig och på konfliktlösning. Orsaker till fred är emellertid ett förbisett område. Detta är olyckligt då ett fokus på fredsorsaker kan generera djupgående förstålse rörande fred - likväl som krig - då ett sådant fokus gör att nya frågor ställs, vilket kan leda till att viktiga variabler som tidigare har förbisetts identifieras. Tidigare forskning visar att orsaken till att konflikter ofta uppstår i samma regioner antingen är att länderna i dessa regioner delar många likartade förhållanden eller att konflikter sprids från ett land till ett annat. Då ingen av dessa orsaker på ett övertygande sätt kan förklara den empiriska gåta som detta projekt fokuserar på kommer vi att använda två nya teoretiska angreppsvinkar. Först kommer vi att undersöka om förklaringen till denna ?fredszon? är strukturen på samhällslivet. Mer precist kommer vi att undersöka hur människor från olika befolkningsgrupper interagerar. Tidigare forskning om Indien visar att städer där hinduer och muslimer umgås mycket sinsemellan, drabbas i mindre utsträckning av konflikter mellan dessa två grupper. Vi kommer därför att undersöka om en liknande förklaring kan härledas till den rådande freden i Botswana, Zambia och Malawi. Vårt andra angreppsätt fokuserar på närvaron av effektiva lokala konfliktlösningsmekanismer. Många inbördeskrig startar med att olika befolkningsgrupper strider om vem som har rätt till ett visst landområde. Sådana förhållanden finns även i de länder vi studerar, men här har inte dessa lett till våldsamma konflikter. Därför vill vi också undersöka om avsaknaden av konflikt kan förklaras med effektiva lokala konfliktlösningsmekanismer. Utöver dess stora akademiska betydelse är projektet även väldigt viktigt utifrån ett policyperspektiv. En fördjupad förståelse om varför vissa länder kan fortsätta att vara fredliga trots att de är omringade av krig innebär viktiga lärdomar för policyaktörer. En sådan kunskap ökar möjligheten att fatta välgrundade beslut om hur man kan öka motståndskraften mot krig i fredliga länder. Sådana lärdomar är även användbara för att minska risken att en konflikt bryter ut i länder där fred råder för närvarande, men som tidigare drabbats av konflikter.

En fördjupad förståelse om varför vissa länder kan fortsätta att vara fredliga trots att de är omringade av krig innebär viktiga lärdomar för policyaktörer. En sådan kunskap ökar möjligheten att fatta välgrundade beslut om hur man kan öka motståndskraften mot krig i fredliga länder. Sådana lärdomar är även användbara för att minska risken att en konflikt bryter ut i länder där fred råder för närvarande, men som tidigare drabbats av konflikter. De lärdomar som kan dras från projektet är därför viktiga för beslutsfattare som är en Sweden Uppsala universitet The Swedish Research Council Uppsala universitet Gender Equality Aid to Environment Participatory Development/Good Governance Trade Development Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Mitigation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Adaptation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention to Combat Desertification Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH) Disaster Risk Reduction(DRR) Disability 557333.33 438666.67 431666.67 4283000 Uppsala universitet 557333.33 Uppsala universitet 438664 Uppsala universitet 431666.67 Uppsala universitet SE-0-SE-29-2013-6422_1 Sweden Political tolerance - the idea that citizens in a democratic society need to accept that even groups and individuals they dislike or object to have rights - is commonly regarded as an essential citizen virtue for a democratic state to be viable. However, due to the design of the methodologies that are commonly employed in tolerance studies, there is no distinction between those that base their intolerance on poor or false information - here referred to as ?uninformed intolerant? - and those who are ?informed intolerant? that maintain intolerant views despite having access to information that we normally see as supporting tolerant norms. This research project will focus on the informed intolerant individuals, since their impact on the viability of a relatively new or fragile democracy can be significant, while on the other hand the origin of their beliefs, values, and attitudes has been far too little explored. Hence the research question: how can ?informed intolerance? among individuals in low- and middle income countries be understood or explained? In order to investigate this question it is necessary to combine the genre of political tolerance studies with institutionalism and political psychology, where at least related questions have been explored. The study will employ in-depth interviews and small-scale surveys in India, Pakistan and Uganda to also test explanations that derive from a tolerance matrix which has been constructed for the project. Informerad och intolerant ? Om antidemokratiska värderingar i låg- och mellaninkomstländer Att vara ?politiskt tolerant? innebär att man accepterar att individer och grupper som man själv ogillar ändå ska ha samma politiska rättigheter som en själv - åtminstone så länge de ?ogillade? också är beredda att acceptera grundläggande demokratiska spelregler. Politisk tolerans beskrivs ofta som en nödvändig förutsättning för fredlig samexistens och fördjupad demokrati. I studier genomförda i välbeställda demokratier har forskningen visat att individers utbildningsnivå och en någorlunda jämn fördelning av ekonomiska resurser är starkt korrelerade med hög politisk tolerans. Men hur kommer det sig att en del individer är mycket svåra att övertyga om att rättigheter bör betraktas som universella och att de bör gälla lika för alla? Vad är det som gör att politisk intolerans, fördomar mellan individer, eller att hat mellan etniska grupper, ibland kan te sig opåverkbara av dialog, information, upprättandet av personliga kontakter och utbyten mellan människor av olika slag? Frågan som ställs i detta forskningsprojekt är vad som formar djupt rotade politiskt intoleranta värderingar hos personer i miljöer som präglas av fattigdom. Forskningsresultat från låg- och mellaninkomstländer visar att utbildningssystemens kvalitet i dessa länder ofta är så låg att även om individer kan lära sig att läsa och skaffa sig en del grundläggande färdigheter i skolan, så fungerar den sällan bra för att förmedla demokratiska ideal. Fattigdomen ligger ofta på sådan nivå att effekterna av materiell välfärd, och fungerande skol- och sjukvård sällan får chans att manifestera sig. I den forskning som bedrivits inom det s.k. TOLEDO-projektet har vi kunnat visa att otrygghet och konflikter ofta ytterligare trycker ner nivåerna av politisk tolerans i sådana miljöer. Men trots svåra förutsättningar, fattigdom och svaga demokratiska institutioner, så kan politisk tolerans ändå uppstå. Istället för skolan blir partier, fackföreningar, frivilligorganisationer viktiga för att lära ut de demokratiska grundprinciperna. Emellertid finner vi i dessa utsatta miljöer en grupp intoleranta medborgare som vi borde ägna mer av vårt intresse. Det är individer som tycks vara nästintill immuna mot de flesta av de faktorer som vi hittills nämnt som viktiga för att politisk tolerans ska uppstå. De har ofta en rätt god utbildning och många kan beskrivas som relativt välinformerade om omvärlden. Ändå upprätthåller de djupt förankrade politiskt intoleranta attityder och ett mycket stabilt stöd för anti-demokratiska regimmodeller. De kan beskrivas som ?välinformerade intoleranta?. Det föreslagna projektet introducerar en helt ny typlogi som beskriver olika slags intolerans bland medborgarna, och syftet är att försöka förstå och förklara vad som formar attityder hos de mest oböjliga intoleranta individerna, och vad, när vanliga informationskampanjer inte når fram, som kan påverka sådana individer till att inta mer demokratiskt orienterade värderingar. Projektet bygger vidare på tre omfattande undersökningar som genomförts inom ramen för TOLEDO-projektet i länderna Indien, Pakistan och Uganda. Dessa tre länder har brittiskt kolonialstyre som gemensam nämnare och de plågas alla av fattigdom och svaga offentliga stödsystem till medborgarna.

We have chosen to focus primarily on the monsoon impacts in Bhutan, with a planned extension of the study area to neighbouring Nepal: this region is mainly affected by the Indian Monsoon subsystem, but it is likely to be influenced by the South-East Monsoon subsystem as experienced e.g. in Thailand. We emphasise in particular the use of stable water isotopes (SWI) to better understand and constrain processes in the atmospheric water cycle. The suggested approach combines ground- based (precipitation sampling, shallow ice-cores) and remote-sensed (tropospheric vapour) ob- servations with global and regional climate models with embedded SWI diagnostics. The periods of interest cover present-day, recent (1981-2010) and future (2021-2050) Mon- soon variability. Beyond the inherent scientific challenges in improving our understanding of the Asian Monsoon, the present project is highly relevant for supporting sustainable develop- ment policies in the partner countries. Analysing the regional SWI signature will also contribute to a refined interpretation of isotopic climate archives in Southern and Eastern Asia. Anthropogenic climate change, whose historical responsibility mainly lies with industrial nations, represents a critical challenge for developing countries. It is commonly accepted that the mean global temperature will increase by approximately 1 to 5 °C by 2100. This considerable temperature increase does not fully express the consequences of global climate change for, in this case, the populations of Bhutan and Nepal. Bhutan is a small country on the southern foothills of the Himalayas, bordered by India to the south and the Chinese Autonomous Region of Tibet to the north. The water resource issue is critical for Bhutan: 67% of its population lives in rural areas, with a limited use of irrigation techniques. Furthermore, Bhutan has recently developed its hydro-electrical capacities; electricity production exceeding the domestic demand is exported to India, which constitutes a major source of foreign currencies (42% of all exports). Hence, the people and economy of Bhutan are very vulnerable to any modification of precipitation, both in terms of total amount and seasonality. Bhutanese authorities, which for several decades have been particularly concerned with environmental conservation and sustainable development, need therefore a detailed assessment of the impacts of the global climate change on Bhutan. Evaluating the consequences of global climate change for Bhutan is not a trivial task. Projections for future climate change, as delivered by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), are generally obtained from global climate models (GCM), whose coarse spatial resolution fail to represent the local climate characteristics over Bhutan, marked by a steep topography. Furthermore, most GCM were developed, evaluated and optimized in developed countries for temperate climates, and are therefore likely to present significant biases in their representations of the South-East Asian Monsoon. Therefore, we plan to use a high-resolution (up to 15 km) regional climate model over Bhutan, in order to evaluate its performance over present-day and recent (1981-2010) periods, before performing a dynamical downscaling of global IPCC projections for the near future (2021-2050). Yet the evaluation of the model performance over Bhutan is complicated by the fact that long observational series, as required for statistical significance assessment, are not available in Bhutan. Therefore, we opted for including stable water isotopes (SWI) as an additional indicator of the atmospheric water cycle. The SWI signal integrates processes along the air-mass trajectory, such as the source region, cumulative rain-out, evapo-transpiration over land etc. SWI will be studied both in observations (precipitation monitoring network over Bhutan, shallow ice-cores, satellite retrieval) and modeling (SWI module in the regional climate model REMOiso). Combining observations and model results, we will concentrate on distinguishing between natural climate variability and underlying climate change over Bhutan during 1981-2010. Thanks to our improved understanding of Monsoon dynamics in Bhutan, and the metrics characterizing the statistical properties of Monsoon variability, we intend to deliver not only a validated climate projection for Bhutan, but also an assessment of the reliability (i.e. statistical level of confidence) of the simulated climate projection.

The potential for further increase as a consequence of climate change has so far received little attention. Even less focus has been given to the complex risks caused by the direct and indirect associations between climate change, marine microbes and human wellbeing, and how such risks can be assessed and governed. With a focus on the west coast of India, this study will identify climate change conditions under which species of toxic microalgae and marine pathogens proliferate and identify the adaptive mechanism for the success. We will in controlled experiments investigate the susceptibility of infection and exposure to algal toxins in bivalves and cultured prawns during elevated temperature and lowered salinity. Simultaneously we will study the influence of rapid urbanization on the use and consumption of bivalves and cultured prawns in coastal urban areas and thereby assess the infrastructural, human and institutional vulnerability to the risk of climate induced effects on seafood. By systematically and empirically link specific biophysical risks to infrastructural, human and institutional vulnerabilities, the study will provide a policy relevant synthesis in the form of alternative risk scenarios. The study is expected to contribute to risk assessment and management of complex environmental risks influenced by changing climate- and socio-economic conditions. Indien har under de senaste tio åren genomgått ekonomisk tillväxt i rask takt och samtidigt upplevt en snabb urbanisering. Den växande indiska medelklassen börjar efterfrågar nya varor och tjänster, bl.a. välsmakande, hälsosamma, miljövänliga och lättillgängliga marina produkter. Denna utveckling skapar grogrund för innovationer och tillväxtmöjligheter i ett land med en 750 mil lång kustremsa. Indien har en lång tradition av fiske och akvakultur, men nu finns en ny inhemsk konsumentgrupp och möjligheterna är fler. Samtidigt skapar den ökande efterfrågan av odlade räkor, ostron och musslor hälsorisker och ett behov av övervakning och kontroll. Planktoniska alger som producerar gifter och marina sjukdomsalstrande bakterier finns naturligt i havet, men kan i förekommande fall infektera eller ackumuleras i fisk och skaldjur. En expanderande odling och kommersialisering av dessa produkter måste alltså ta hänsyn till de risker som finns. Klimatmodeller genererade för att projicera framtida marina förhållanden för den indiska västkusten förutspår förändrade oceanografiska förhållanden. En kombination av ökad temperatur och nederbörd kommer att leda till en ökad skiktning av vattnet. Dessa förhållanden gynnar gruppen med giftproducerande alger, dinoflagellater, och många marina bakterier, exempelvis det sjukdomsalstrande släktet Vibrio. Mer omfattande blomningar av dessa organismer medför större risker för odlare och konsumenter. Ett dylikt scenario får särskilda konsekvenser i ett land där många fattiga människor är direkt beroende av både mat och inkomster från fiskesektorn och där information och hälsovård ofta är bristfällig för de sämst bemedlade. Trots vetenskapliga belägg för att förekomsten av marina alg- och bakterie blomning ökar runt om i världen, och det faktum att klimatförändringars inverkan är gynnsam för sådana händelser så har det inte rönt särskilt stor uppmärksamhet. Än mindre har uppmärksamheten riktats mot de möjliga risker för mänsklig hälsa och välfärd som ökad förekomst av mikrobakteriella blomningar på grund av klimatförändringar kan föra med sig. Vår tvärvetenskapliga studie syftar till att kombinera studier av de biofysiska faktorer som skapare förutsättningar för en ökad förekomst av marina alg- och bakterie blomning längs den Indiska sydvästkusten, och de socio-ekonomiska faktorer som bestämmer samhällets sårbarhet i förhållande till dessa risker. Projektet innehåller följande huvudsakliga forskningsuppgifter: 1. Vi kommer att identifiera de klimatförhållanden under vilka giftiga marina mikroalger och sjukdomsalstrande bakterier frodas och definiera de evolutionära mekanismer som möjliggör en anpassning till förändrade klimatförhållanden. 2. I manipulerade experiment kommer vi att undersöka i vilken utsträckning musslor, ostron och odlade räkor påverkas av alg gifter och marina bakterier under förhöjd temperatur och sänkt salthalt. 3. Vi kommer att studera hur den snabba urbaniseringen längs indiska sydvästkusten påverkar användning, produktion och konsumtion av musslor, ostron och odlade räkor. 4. Projektet avser att analysera tre dimensioner av sårbarhet (sårbarhet relaterad till infrastruktur, mänsklig sårbarhet, institutionell sårbarhet) i relation till risken för ökad förekomst av blomningar längs den indiska sydvästkusten. 5. Vi kommer i projektets slutskede att identifiera olika scenarier för marina alg- och bakterie blomningar för att på så sätt kunna relatera den socio-ekonomiska sårbarheten till de biofysiska riskerna. Vi förväntar oss att vårt projekt ska skapa förutsättningar för att bättre kunna bestämma och förutse de miljö- och samhällsrisker som klimatförändringar och ökad förekomst av skaldliga marina blomningar medför och därmed skapa en utgångspunkt för effektiv riskhantering.

The proposed research involves the genotyping and phenotyping of durum wheat core collection, and the use of association mapping (based on linkage disequilibrium) for identifying marker genes related to traits enhancing adaptation to both drought- and heat-prone environments. Durum wheat breeders can directly employ this information to design targeted crosses to pyramid useful alleles within a single genotype and to estimate breeding values for applying genome wide-selection. High-yielding durum wheat cultivars will assure the maintenance of total grain produced, increase total proteins available for the diet, reduce water consumed, and provide means for crop rotation to rice, and offer options for a more diversified diet in northwest Africa. Local capacity strengthening will be also achieved by training a Mauritanian or a Senegalese student in a sandwich PhD program between the University of Rabat (Morocco), ICARDA and SLU. Den globala uppvärmningen kommer att ha en långtgående inverkan nord-väst kusten i Afrika, med en allvarlig reduktion av vattentillgången och signifikant ökad temperatur. För att möta detta måste växtförädlarna förse jordbruket med sorter som är kapabla att bibehålla hög avkastning med mindre tillgång på vatten (vattenanvändningseffektivitet, WUE), höga temperaturer (värmetolerans), och reducerad nederbörd (torktolerans). WUE, och anpassning till hetta och torka är mycket komplexa kvantitativa egenskaper som endast kan förbättras genom noggranna selektioner i definierade miljöer och genom att kombinera många gener. Den traditionella metoden för växtförädling har visat sig effektiv hittills, men med en betydande förlust i potentiell kärnskörd och allmän agronomiska egenskaper. För att möta den växande efterfrågan på livsmedel från en stadigt ökande befolkning, skulle en mer effektiv växtförädling behövs, något som möjliggör identifiering av alla användbara alleler i arvsmassan och underlättar deras introgression i högeffektiva sorter. Mauretanien och Senegal är extremt svält-drabbade fattiga länder (55e och 44e i Global Hunger Index), med ett starkt beroende av jordbruk och boskap. Stora områden är öken eller halvöken, med en otillräcklig nederbörd. Längs Atlantens kustområde möjliggör nederbörd under regnperioden (juni-oktober) en odling av torktoleranta grödor främst hirs. Fertila områden finns längs med Senegal floden, som utgör gräns mellan de två länderna. Durumvete har potential för sådd i regnbevattnade områden i Mauretanien och Senegal i rotation med hirs. I samarbete med nationella partners kommer därför genetisk och växtförädlingsforskning bedrivas för att bland annat identifiera WUE, torka och värme-toleranta durumvete sorter och öka acceptansen för durumodling. Vi kommer också utvärdera nya gener kapabla att lindra de negativa effekterna av den globala uppvärmningen och utforska nya förädlingsmetoder för att införliva nya gener i högavkastande sorter för anpassning till torka och värme. Projektet kommer att ge praktisk utbildning av en mauretanska eller senegalesiska student i ett sandwich-program mellan universitetet i Rabat (Marocko), ICARDA och SLU i Alnarp. En utvald samling av durumvete från ICARDAs genbank kommer att användas. Denna samling sorter/linjer har en betydande genetisk mångfald och är en idealisk resurs för att upptäcka nya källor till variation. Associationsgenetik kommer att användas där vi kombinerar fältdata (dvs. fenotypning) avsende torka, WUE och värme på de aktuella platserna och DNA-fingeravtryck (eller genotypning).

Den långsiktiga effekten av den föreslagna forskningen kommer att bidra till en hållbar odling av durumvete i torra områden i Afrika, och kommer att underlätta durumvetets anpassning till det förändrade klimatet.

Heavy metal pollution is one of the main environmental problems in post-mining landscapes, posing serious hazards to human health and agricultural productivity. Although green restoration technologies have advanced elsewhere, little information is available in Zambia. The project aims to develop restoration model for mining wastelands. Specifically the following research questions will be studied: a) Which native species in the Copperbelt region of Zambia are suitable for restoration of post-mining landscape?; b) Which organic amendments are efficient for sequestering heavy metals in situ and enhance growth performance of native species?; c) How do the soil amendments interact with the physiological response of metal tolerant species and d) Which planting method will ensure better survival and growth performances of native species planted on amended mining wastelands? The project will generate basic and applied knowledge for developing restoration model, and will provide scientific evidence for decision-makers, environmental groups and the general public about pathways for reclamation of mining wastelands, thereby contributing towards the achievement of ?Green Economy Development? goals. Mot grön ekonomisk utveckling i Zambia: Skogsrestaurering av nedlagda gruvområden Människans strävan efter ekonomisk utveckling medför ofta stora negativa effekter på ekosystemen, såsom globala klimatförändringar, miljöförstöring och en snabb minskning av den biologiska mångfalden. Gruvdrift utgör en av de stora industriella aktiviteterna i Zambia sedan början av 2000-talet och har förutom god ekonomisk utveckling genererat en stora miljöproblem på grund av stora mängder toxiskt gruvavfall och anrikningsmaterial. Omhändertagandet av gruvavfall är ofta komplicerat på grund av höga halter tungmetaller med instabil struktur, brist på växtnäringsämnen och lågt pH i marken. Som ett resultat förblir inaktiva och övergivna gruvor i allmänhet obevuxna under längre tid vilket innebär allvarliga risker för människors hälsa och produktivitet i jordbruket på grund av yt-och grundvatten föroreningar, kontaminering via vinddrift och vattenerosion, samt upptag i växter som används som livsmedel.

FSWs are considered to be a core group for transmission of HIV in Guinea-Bissau, and in the neighbouring country Senegal high rates of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections have been reported among MSM. Our proposal involves studies that directly may improve health among these two groups of marginalized and vulnerable individuals at high risk of HIV infection, as well as restricting further spread of HIV in the society by proper management of STIs and improvement of antiretroviral treatment. In addition, we address specific basic medical questions that may reveal novel approaches to combat HIV transmission and disease. The latter is based on our recent major finding from studies of seroincident individuals, where we identified HIV-1+HIV-2 dually infected subjects as a new group of slow progressors that is able to control their HIV-1 infection as compared to single HIV-1 infected subjects. Our observations were built on a study cohort of police officers in Guinea-Bissau with high follow-up rate (>75%) and long follow-up times (>20 years). In the current proposal, we will instead follow the ongoing cohorts of FSW and MSM in Guinea-Bissau that has been running since 2007. Vi har startat ett samarbete med ENDA (environmental and development action in the third world), vilket är en internationell organisation baserad i Dakar, Senegal, som sysslar med hållbar utveckling, miljö, energi, hälsa och särskild inriktning på fattigdomsbekämpning. De har drivit ett interventionsprojekt i Guinea-Bissau sedan 2007 riktat mot kvinnliga sexarbetare (FSW) och män som har sex med män (MSM). Man har funnit hög förekomst av HIV bland FSW, över 50% i de först1 122 analyserade proverna. De använder dock bara snabbtester för HIV vilket är något osäkra, och behandlingen av övriga sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar (STI) grundar sig enbart på uppgivna symtom. Alla HIV-positiva FSW uppmuntras till antiretroviral behandling (ART), men tyvärr är följsamheten relativt låg, både i denna grupp och nationellt. I grannlandet Senegal har man testat > 500 MSM och man fann en HIV-prevalens på ca 22% vilket var ungefär lika mycket som hos de prostituerade kvinnorna i Senegal. Dessutom visade det sig att > 80% av dessa män också hade heterosexuella kontakter. Det nationella antiretrovirala behandlingsprogrammet startade 2005 i Guinea-Bissau och hittills har mer än 5000 satts in på behandling. WHO rekommenderar att man bör utföra återkommande undersökningar av eventuella överförda resistensmutationer mot HIV-läkemedel hos nydiagnosticerade personer med HIV som en kontroll på det nationella behandlingsprogrammets kvalité. Några sådana undersökningar har dock aldrig gjorts i Guinea-Bissau. Inga möjligheter finns heller i landet att mäta virusnivåerna i blodet för att kontrollera att behandlingen fungerar, utan behandlingen styrs utifrån symtom och CD4 mätningar. Detta gör att viral svikt upptäcks sent med risk för ökad smittsamhet samt resistensutveckling. Vi har i en unik studie identifierat en ny grupp av HIV slow-responders, alltså personer som har en långsammare sjukdomsuteckling än förväntat. Genom vår långa uppföljningsstudie av poliser i Bissau har vi funnit en stor grupp personer med nysmitta av HIV-1 och HIV-2 (seroincidenta med känd infektionstid), och genom att följa dessa med virologiska, immunologiska och kliniska undersökningar under mer än 20 år har vi kunnat visa att personer som smittats med både HIV-1 och HIV-2 förefaller ha en långsammare sjukdomsutveckling jämfört med de som bara har HIV-1. Detta gäller i särskilt hög grad de som första har en konstaterad HIV-2 infektion innan de blir smittade av HIV-1. Det förefaller alltså som om HIV-2 infektionen kan modulera HIV-1 förloppet på ett fördelaktigt sätt. Vi har nyligen avslutat en prospektiv studie av kvinnor med misstanke på sexuellt överförd infektion (STI) vid ett center för kvinnohälsa i Guinea-Bissau. En första sammanställning har visat att > 12% var smittade med HIV, och ungefär lika många hade Chlamydia trachomatis. Knappt 8 % var positiva för Herpes simplex typ 2 respektive Mycoplasma genitalium. Vi undersökte också antibiotikaresistensen hos identifierade gonorréstammar mot vanligt förekommande preparat i Bissau och vi fann väldigt höga siffror (80-100%) mot en del antibiotika. I de nu planerade studierna vill vi förbättra det pågående interventionsprojektet med FSW och MSM, två mycket utsatta och marginaliserade grupper i samhället. Vi kommer att införa tillförlitlig diagnostik av HIV och andra STI, och vi kommer även att implementera virusbestämning av HIV i Bissau. Vi kommer att erbjuda testning och gratis behandling av förekommande könssjukdomar, och HIV-positiva kommer att remitteras till ett särskilt antiretroviralt behandlingsprogram. Dessutom kommer ett särskilt utformat preventionsprogram att genomföras riktat till MSM. Denna typ av information har visat sig särskilt viktig för att minska riskbeteende i denna grupp och vi tror att vårt projekt kan få stor betydelse när det gäller minskad smittspridning av HIV och andra STI.

The genital samples will be defined by expression of junction proteins, distribution and density of HIV receptors, innate immune proteins and genital microflora by using immunohistochemistry, qPCR, proteomics and microbiomics.

Neurodevelopmental disorders have previously been neglected due to more challenging health problems, e.g., under 5 mortality. However, CP is a common cause of movement disability and it has a devastating impact on the child and its family affecting occupational activities, social relationships, psychological well-being and financial conditions. We plan to perform a randomized controlled study comparing clusters of villages with the community based program to villages maintaining the ordinary health services. However, before commencing the intervention we need to understand the panorama of CP in Uganda. There is little information available about the epidemiology of CP in Sub-Saharan Africa. We are currently studying a hospital cohort at Mulago University Hospital in Kampala, but there are obvious limitations. Therefore, we plan to perform a population-based epidemiology study on CP at the Iganga DSS, in which we will explore the prevalence, type of CP, severity level, associated risk factors as well as available rehabilitative and therapeutic services. The subsequent intervention study will be performed on this cohort of children. The information and the results from this project will be useful for advocacy purposes and aiding policy makers allocate adequate resources for children with neurodevelopmental disabilities. Det långsiktiga målet med detta projekt är att utveckla ett rehabiliteringsprogram för barn med CP i Uganda som dels syftar till att barnen och deras familjer inkluderas i samhället (ökad delaktighet); dels till att förbättra de nedsatta funktioner som barnen har så att de ska klara dagliga aktiviteter bättre. Projektet tar sitt avstamp i den internationella ledarroll som Sverige har inom forskningen på detta område, och den i internationell jämförelse välutvecklade barnhabilitering som byggts upp i Sverige under de senaste decennierna, samt den studie på barn med CP som nu pågår vid Mulagosjukhuset i Kampala. Ungefär var tionde barn har någon form av neurologisk utvecklingsavvikelse i Sverige och andra höginkomstländer. Den vanligaste formen av motoriskt funktionshinder kommer av cerebral pares (CP) som finns hos 2 bland 1000 barn och som beror på en tidig hjärnskada. Svårighetsgraden varierar från mildare former, då barnen klarar det mesta själva, till svårare former då de behöver hjälp även med de mest basala funktionerna. I Uganda, liksom i övriga Södra Afrika, saknas information om hur vanligt det är med CP, vilka olika former av CP som finns, och vad det är som förorsakar CP. Det finns skäl att tro att CP-panoramat skiljer sig liksom orsakerna till hjärnskadan, t ex bristande mödra- och förlossningsvård, infektioner. Den preliminära studie vi nu gör på Mulagosjukhuset indikerar att så är fallet. Vi kommer också att kartlägga den sociala situationen för barn med CP och deras familjer och vilken typ av medicinsk vård och habilitering CP-barn får. I ett land där den stora utmaningen utgörs av den stora barnadödligheten i malaria och andra infektionssjukdomar faller det sig naturligt att detta inte varit ett prioriterat område, men det finns en stor grupp med barn och familjer som är i behov stöd och habiliteringsinsatser. Den första fasen i detta projekt är därför att genomföra en populationsbaserad epidemiologisk studie om CP på Iganga Demographic Surveillance Site. Där kommer vi att utforska förekomsten, typ av CP, svårighetsgrad, associerade riskfaktorer; det senare för att se om det finns en riskfaktor som skulle kunna förebygga en del fall av CP. Vi kommer även att undersöka den drabbade familjens situation, eftersom CP i många fall upplevs som ett stigma och där föräldrarna försöker hålla undan det CP-skadade barnet från övriga samhället. Vi kommer även att kartlägga vilka former av habilitering barnen får. I den andra fasen kommer vi att utveckla ett *community based* habiliteringsprogram. Det utgår från de principer som tagits fram för *Community Based Rehabilitation* och kommer att arbetas fram i fokusgrupper med medverkan av föräldrar, kommunansvariga, NGOs och internationella experter. Vi kommer även att utveckla ett tidigt terapeutiskt interventionsprogram för att förbättra de motoriska funktionerna hos det drabbade barnet baserat på evidensbaserad forskning och anpassad till de lokala förutsättningar som finns. I den sista fasen kommer detta kommunbaserade habiliteringsprogram att evalueras i randomiserade, kontrollerade studier.

Using a translational approach our goal is to find a strategy to modulate and stimulate the innate immune response, thereby strengthening macrophage capacity in individuals exposed to Mtb and coinfecting agents (HIV, helminths) in endemic areas, and shorten the duration of disease. Specific aims to achieve this are (i) to characterize how apoptotic cells and Hsp72 activate macrophages; (ii) to identify how polymorphisms in the inflammasome genes affect susceptibility to Mtb infection; (iii) how coinfections with HIV or helminths affect macrophage capacity to handle Mtb; (iv) to evaluate how stimulation of NO production and anti-helminth treatment can enhance macrophage function, and serve as adjuvant treatment to conventional chemotherapy. This translational project links basic infectious biology knowhow to clinical applications in high burden TB areas like Ethiopia and Peru. Tuberkulos är världens mest spridda infektionssjukdom. Närmare en tredjedel av jordens befolkning är smittade och 1,2 miljoner dör varje år i sjukdomen. Trots vaccination, effektiv antibiotikabehandling och förbättrade socioekonomiska förhållanden, ökar sjukdomen idag. En orsak är urbaniseringen i fr.a. Afrika, en annan är HIV utvecklingen som ökar känsligheten för aktiv tuberkulos. En tredje orsak är den ökade resistensutvecklingen som också sker i industrialiserade länder, fr.a. Östeuropa. Det behövs därför nya effektivare insatser för att förhindra en fortsatt spridning av denna sjukdom. Omfattande forskning sker nu för att utveckla nya effektivare vacciner som i första hand kan komplettera nuvarande BCG vaccination. Men traditionell vaccination räcker inte för att skydda oss mot tuberkulos. Vi har ställt oss frågan varför *bara* 5-10% av alla de som smittas inte blir sjuka. Frågan är hur kroppens naturliga (medfödda) immunitet skyddar oss mot denna infektion, och hur den kan förstärkas. Hur kan vi stimulera kroppens skydd mot tuberkulos? När kroppens inflammatoriska celler ansamlas i lungan och där äter upp och avdödar tuberkelbakterier, sker också programmerad celldöd (apoptos) och aktivering av lungans immunceller som nu bildar inflammationsstimulerande och bakterieavdödande ämnen, bl.a. kväveoxid (NO). I det fortsatta arbetet studerar vi hur aktiveringen av dessa celler sker och vilka egenskaper hos tuberkelbakterien som medverkar i denna process. På basis av dessa grundläggande studier, genomför vi kliniska studier i Etiopien, där vi utvecklar strategier för att förstärk immunförsvaret hos patienter med tuberkulos. Vi har tidigare visat att tillskott av aminosyran arginin och jordnötter, som innehåller höga mängder arginin, påskyndar tillfrisknandet hos patienter med TB. Detta beror på an ökad lokal produktion av NO. Aktuella studier visar vidare att samtidig HIV/TB infektion stör bildningen av NO i lungan, vilket ökar känsligheten för infektion. Vi breddar nu dessa nutritionsinriktade studier med att följa TB patienter som är dubbelinfekterade med HIV eller mask. Här är målet att förstå varför dessa patienter löper ökad risk att utveckla tuberkulos, och därmed kunna förebygga att sjukdomen bryter ut. Genom en kombination av grundläggande infektionsimmunologiska och kliniska studier av tuberkulos i endemiska områden, hoppas vi kunna utveckla nya strategier för hur tuberkulossjukdomen kan förebyggas och behandlas.

The project is designed as a PhD project, so as to train a young scientist and provide knowledge and incentive for further research efforts. A participatory approach will be adopted, involving local animal health workers, farmers and scientists. By identifying the main problems, investigating their main causes and designing herd-specific measures for prevention and assessing the economic feasibility, the results will be immediately useful in the field situation. The project combines a broad holistic approach with an individual-based design for solutions. The project consists of three parts. The first part will characterise the major infectious diseases in different types of cattle production in the different districts of Uganda. The second part is an in-depth study of the diseases and their socio-economic impact in selected herds. The third part adopts a community participatory approach to design tailor-made measures for each herd, applicable to its particular disease risks and potential. This will be further evaluated to assess the compliance and effect in each herd. In addition to scientific publications, the results will be communicated directly back to the participating farmers through feedback workshops and reported via suitable channels to other stakeholders. Smittskyddsverktyg för nötkreatursägare i Uganda: Nötkreatur har stort värde för afrikanska bönder, för produktion av kött och mjölk, samt som dragdjur och för ekonomisk trygghet. Projektet syftar till att ge nötkreatursbönder i Uganda såväl motivation som verktyg för att förhindra smittsamma sjukdomar som kan skada deras verksamhet. Först kartläggs de viktigaste sjukdomarna hos nötkreatur i Uganda. Därefter undersöks utvalda besättningar för dessa sjukdomar, relaterat till verksamhet, smittskydd och produktivitet. Sedan upprättas besättningsegna åtgärder i samma besättningar, för att på bästa sätt hindra smitta. Slutligen utvärderas effekterna av åtgärderna. Resultaten värderas både i ekonomiska termer och i förekomst av olika sjukdomar, för att direkt kunna koppla förekomst av smitta till produktionsförluster. Genom att engagera djurägarna i såväl identifiering av de viktigaste sjukdomarna som lämpliga åtgärder i deras individuella besättningar ökar möjligheten att genomföra sjukdomsförebyggande åtgärder. Djurägarnas egen bedömning av motivation och möjlighet att genomföra åtgärderna utvärderas också. Resultaten förmedlas inte bara i vetenskapliga publikationer utan även via workshops och direkt kommunikation till djurägarna. Projektet kombinerar en bred vetenskaplig ansats med praktiskt användbara verktyg för enskilda djurägare. Det är ett doktorandprojekt som även syftar till att stärka och utveckla det vetenskapliga samarbetet mellan Sverige och Uganda, och de svenska förutsättningarna att med forskning bidra till hållbar utveckling i låg- och medelinkomstländer.

Topical prevention strategies designed to block HIV transmission at mucosal surface represents one of the currently most promising tool for preventing this infection. A major impediment to any passive administration of microbicides is the efficient and practical delivery of the active product. The aim of this project is to develop a prophylactic therapy based on lactobacilli delivering llama single domain antibody fragments (VHH) against HIV envelope proteins in the vaginal tract. Compared to conventional antibodies, VHHs are markedly more acid resistant, easier to express in a functional recombinant form, and can more easily reach cavities in proteins due their longer CDR3 region. The genes encoding the VHHs will be cloned in lactobacilli with an ability to colonise the vaginal tract using a pharmaceutical grade and biologically contained expression system. The modified lactobacilli will subsequently be tested for safety in humans in a clinical trial. The modified lactobacilli would be lyophilised, and incorporated in tampons or capsules allowing stockpiling of a prophylactic that can be conserved for long periods of time. Administration of modified vaginal isolates of lactobacilli, expressing VHH fragments, could prevent access or entry of HIV into host cells and tissues, thereby markedly reducing the risk for infection. Sexuell/reproduktiv ohälsa, speciellt HIV/AIDS, leder till svårigheter att uppnå målen för fattigdomsreduktion, global utveckling och jämställdhet mellan könen. Mer än 25 miljoner människor har hittills avlidit till följd av AIDS, en sjukdom som orsakas av infektion med HIV-1. Heterosexuellt överförd smitta är i dagsläget den vanligaste formen av transmission. Utvecklandet av ett vaccin har visat sig vara oerhört svårt. Lokal behandling med virushämmande agens är en metod som för närvarande verkar vara den mest lovande som förebyggande behandling mot sexuell överföring av virus. Det största hindret idag är att finna en enkel, praktisk och effektiv metod för att administrera dessa medel. Vi har tidigare utvecklat metoder för att få vanliga mjölksyrebakterier (lactobaciller) att producera antikroppar. Denna typ av bakterier förekommer normalt i hög mängd både i tarmen och i vagina. Syftet med projektet är att modifiera de utvalda stammarna så att de producerar antikroppar mot HIV på cellerna som behövs för infektion, och att testa den profylaktiska effekten av dessa bakterier mot smitta med HIV-1. Dessa försök skulle kunna leda fram till en framtida behandling med frystorkade, modifierade laktobaciller som appliceras regelbundet via tamponger eller vagitorier och som skulle kunna producera ett lokalt skydd mot smitta.

Rapid tests for Malaria and HIV have in recent years dramatically improved management of patients and are extremely useful where there is no access to laboratories and qualified staff. However, today no rapid tests are available for many of the most serious infectious diseases such as TB and pneumonia, and further the sheer number of rapid tests is becoming untenable financially and practically. We will employ protein microarray technology to allow simultaneous detection of a patient´s antibody-response to a variety of pathogens, where each pathogen´s unique antibody signature allows greatly improved specificity. Our group has recently developed novel microarray formats that through use of certain nitrocellulose substrates and novel nanoparticle-based amplification strategies allow retained accuracy as compared with lab-based assays within 10 minutes of analysis at a fraction of the cost. The main focus of the project is to create a rapid test for reliable determination of active/latent TB in pediatric patients and at the same time detect signatures of a number of other relevant viral, bacterial and parasitic infections.

Destructive harvesting and overexploitation of fragile populations has forced traders to tap into new resource areas further east, such as the Kopet-Dagh Mts. Terrestrial orchids in the genera Orchis and Dactylorhiza are most frequently collected, but due to high demand and prices all species are targeted indiscriminately. Pilot data from Iran indicates that traders visit Turkmen communities in the Kopet-Dagh to solicit orchid collection. Salep prices lie at roughly 100 euro/kg, and increase year-on-year. Orchids are sensitive to overexploitation, and it is important to know what species are traded. Conventional morphology-based studies cannot be used to identify roots. Orchidaceae-specific markers designed using NGS genomic data can be used for accurate molecular barcoding identification. NGS High-Throughput Sequencing, which enables sequencing of multiple samples in parallel, will be used to establish presence of different species in powdered bulk. The development of a salep molecular barcoding identification system based on a reference library with sequence data of the 49 Iranian and Turkmen species will: 1) provide a tool to identify conservation priority species; 2) aid the Iranian Environmental Protection Organization to monitor and control illegal trade; 3) help customs seize and identify smuggled tubers; and 4) reduce health risks to consumers by detecting food and medicinal fraud. Orkidéer samlas i stor utsträckning i Turkiet och Kaukasusområdet för att användas i salep, ett mjöl som görs av rötterna. Salep är en viktig ingrediens inom traditionell folkmedicin där det används i salvor, drickor och glass. Handeln är störst i Turkiet, men förekommer även i Kina, Indien, Pakistan och Azerbajdzjan. Under de senaste åren har överexploatering och destruktiva skördessätt av sårbara orkidépopulationer tvingat samlarna och säljarna att leta sig till nya områden i Kopeth-Dagh-bergen, som ligger i gränsområdet mellan Iran och Turkmenistan. Kopeth-Dagh-bergen utgör den östligaste delen av Irano-Anitolian Biodiversity Hotspot som är känd för sin rika flora och sitt höga antal endemiska arter. Efter Sovjets fall har efterfrågan på salep i Turkmenistan ökat då traditionell växtkunskap har kommit att bli viktigare, delvis på grund av bristande tillgång till modern sjukvård. En pilotstudie visar att de orkidéer som samlas i störst utsträckning är de marklevande släktena Orchis och Dactylorhiza. Dock har stigande priser och en ökad efterfråga medfört att orkidéinsamlingen idag sker mer godtyckligt och att den även inkluderar hotade arter av släktena Limodorum, Steveniella och Ophrys. Insamling av orkidéer i Iran uppmuntras av handlare som besöker de turkmeniska samhällena i södra Kopeth-Dagh-området. Handlarna köper in rötterna och säljer dem sedan vidare genom Tehran, Baneh i iranska Kurdistan, Erbil i irakiska Kurdistan och vidare till Turkiet. Enligt handlarna i Tehran kommer de största mängderna salep in under juni och juli. Priserna stiger årligen och det aktuella grossistpriset ligger idag på 90-110 euro per kilo för de torkade rötterna. Handelsvägen för orkidéer i Turkmenistan är dåligt känd, men försäljningen av rötterna sker säsongsvis i huvudstaden Ashgabat. Eftersom salep framställs av olika orkidéarter, och då orkidéer är känsliga för överexploatering, är det viktigt att kartlägga vilka arter som används i handeln. Konventionell artbestämning med hjälp av morfologi kan inte tillämpas på torkade rötter. Molekylär identifikation genom DNA-streckkodning har visat sig vara en framgångsrik metod för artbestämning av svårbestämt växtmaterial som säljs i handeln. Orkidéspecifika markörer som designas med hjälp av Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) av kloroplastgenom och nukleära genom kan användas för korrekt och reproducerbar identifikation. Ett DNA-streckkodningssystem som bygger på en referensdatabas med sekvensdata från de 49 iranska och turkmeniska arterna, inklusive de 22 arterna från Kopeth-Dagh-bergen, kan användas för bestämning av allt orkidématerial som säljs i Iran och Turkmenistan. Ett ytterligare problem är att orkidérötterna ofta ersätts med andra rötter, vilka kan utgöra en överhängande förgiftningsfara. Det är till exempel känt att giftiga icke-orkidéer såsom Arum maculatum (fläckig munkhätta), Ranunculus ficaria (svalört) och Colchicum autumnale (hösttidlösa) används som tillsatser i salep. Genom att fastställa vilka arter som förekommer i den pulveriserade slutprodukten kan arter som bör prioriteras för bevarande identifieras och konsumenterna kan skyddas mot potentiellt hälsofarliga tillsatser. Projektet kommer att använda Second Generation High-Throughput Sequencing, en snabb och kostnadseffektiv metod som gör det möjligt att sekvensera flera prover samtidigt. Ett DNA-baserat identifikationssystem för salep kommer att: 1) utgöra ett verktyg för våra samarbetspartners vid Golestan National Park i Iran och Kopeth-Dagh State Nature Reserve i Turkmenistan för identifikation av arter som bör prioriteras för bevarande så att lämpliga åtgärder kan vidtas; 2) hjälpa den iranska Environmental Protection Agency att övervaka och kontrollera den illegala handeln med orkidérötter; 3) hjälpa Iran och Turkmenistan att genomföra the Convention on International Trade of Endangered Species (CITES), vilken förbjuder all internationell handel med orkidéer; 4) hjälpa internationella tullmyndigheter att beslagta och id Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Iran (Islamic Republic of) Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2013-6648-1 Sweden Orchids are collected widely in Asia Minor for use in the traditional product salep.

After that the model will be used to simulate how the maize production will be affected by the future climate scenarios A1B and B2 in Sweden and Nicaragua. An important outcome is to start a forage network between UNA (agricultural university in Nicaragua) and SLU (agricultural university in Sweden). This will be done by research meetings each year, attending international conferences, conduct experiments with a common protocol and work with crop modelling together. Other research institutions working with forage crops will be invited to participate in the network. There is an urgent need to enhance the efficiency of forage use in livestock production in order to reduce the impact on the environment. One part will be determined the energy efficiency for the maize crop. Small silage experiments, mixing forage maize with a local protein crop, will be conducted in Sweden and Nicaragua. Local protein sources such as faba bean and Moringa (Moringa oleifera) will be studied. I detta projekt kommer förutsättningarna för odling av ensilagemajs att jämföras mellan Sverige och Nicaragua. I fältförsök i båda länderna kommer tillväxten noga mätas för att kunna kalibrera en tillväxtmodell för majs. När detta är gjort kommer modellen att användas för att beräkna hur framtida klimatscenarier påverkar majsens tillväxt i Sverige och Nicaragua under detta sekel. Klimatpanelens scenarier A1B och B2 utnyttjas. Scenario A1B innebär en snabbare tillväxt och befolkningsökning än B2, vilket leder till mer utsläpp av växthusgaser och en större temperaturökning. Alla beräkningar skall hjälpa lantbrukare att i framtiden anpassa sin produktion av majs till klimatförändringar. Det är viktigt att säkra den framtida produktionen av bra foder till nötboskap, därför kommer även studier att göras av samensilering av majs och en viktig lokal proteingröda.

However, the techniques used for nanoparticle production provided no control over nanoparticle size and their efficacy was not investigated in animal models. This study focuses on the design of TQ-NPs using Flash Nanoprecipitation (FNP), a recent technology that allows for preparing optimal nanoparticle sizes with high entrapment efficiency and loading capacity. The efficacy of TQ-NPs will be determined in a panel of cells that range from normal to less aggressive and highly aggressive cancer cell lines, and the anticancer activity will be investigated in animal models. The project has three main aims: 1- Prepare stable TQ-NPs 2- Investigate uptake of TQ-NPs versus free TQ in vitro and in vivo, and 3- Evaluate the anticancer activity of free TQ and TQ-NPs in vitro and in vivo. This project will provide a new approach for the enhancement of TQ-NP anticancer activity and for the first time assess its activity in animal models, which is instrumental for clinical translation. Beskriv vad som ska göras och varför Hydrofoba läkemedel visar dålig absorptionsförmåga och biotillgänglighet i djurmodeller på grund av deras låga löslighet. Detta resulterar i att små mängder av läkemedlet når måltumören och orsakar ökad toxicitet för normala vävnader. Thymoquinone (TQ) är en sådan hydrofob anti-cancer molekyl härledd från det svarta fröet Nigella sativa som har visat mycket lovande anti-tumöreffekter i flera cancersystem. Sedan 2010 har flera forskare preparerat och utvärderat anti-canceraktiviteten av TQ-nanopartiklar (TQ-NP), och fann dem vara mer aktiva än fri TQ, men ingen av TQ-NP har varit inom ett rekommenderat storleksintervall och deras effektivitet har inte undersökts i djurmodeller. Vi kommer att utforma TQ-NP med en ny metod som gör det möjligt att förbereda nanopartiklar med optimal storlek, och som har hög inneslutningseffektivitet och lastkapacitet. Vi kommer att avgöra effekten av TQ-NP i flera celler som sträcker sig från normala och mindre aggressiva cancer cellinjer till mycket aggressiva och invasiva cancer cellinjer, och för första gången undersöka anti-canceraktiviteten av TQ-NP i djurmodeller. Förklara på vilket sätt den nya kunskapen kan vara betydelsefull De resultat som erhålls i detta projekt kommer att beskriva en ny strategi för att öka TQ-NP anti-canceraktivitet och bestämma deras bakomliggande verkningsmekanismer. Dessutom kommer detta projekt var det första i sitt slag med att ge en bedömningen av TQ-NPs in vivo formulering, vilket är avgörande för dess potential att som behandlingsmetod överföras till klinisk verksamhet. Beskriv hur internationellt samarbete kan bidra till denna forskning Teamet på American University of Beirut (AUB) har utförligt undersökt anti-canceraktiviteten av thymoquinone i flera system och fann denna molekyl vara effektiv mot cancer, exempelvis hud, kolon, och osteosarkom. Med hjälp av nanoteknik, har forskargruppen vid AUB nyligen med en ny formulering försökt att kapsla in TQ i nanopartiklar. Resultaten av denna studie visade att nanopartiklarnas storlekar passar de som rekommenderas av National Cancer Institute. De fann också att inkapsling av TQ i nanopartiklar ökar dess anti-canceraktivitet jämfört med fria TQ. Men AUB har inte tillgång till lämpliga experimentella anläggningar för att studera TQ-NP i en panel av tio humana tumörcellinjer av olika histologiska ursprung och som innehåller resistenta och känsliga cellinjer. Denna panel av cellinjer är avgörande för utvärderingen av TQ-NPs aktivitet och preliminära mekanistiska klassificering. Detta system som finns i Sverige kommer att bidra till att komplettera och validera resultaten från AUB. Även om AUB har en djuranläggning, kommer djurmodellen tillgänglig i Sverige, som bygger på ihåliga rör som placerats under huden, vara en idealisk och relativt billig modell (jämfört med xenotransplantat) för att bekräfta den observerade aktiviteten av TQ-NP i många cellsystem.

System för vätgasproduktion En växande befolkning och en samtida förbättring av människors livsvillkor resulterar i ett stigande globalt energibehov. De negativa effekterna på miljön i form av luftföroreningar och global uppvärmning blir allt mer uppenbara. På grund av detta är det av yttersta vikt att nu agera och koncentrera sig på att aktivt söka alternativ till vår nuvarande energiförsörjning som är beroende av fossila bränslen. Väte är bundet och homogent fördelat över jordytan och kan avge energi genom kemiska reaktioner med syre, med endast vatten som biprodukt, i till exempel förbränningsmotorer och bränsleceller. Tack vare dessa egenskaper, så betraktas väte som ett idealt syntetiskt bränsle för en ny återvinningsbar, säker, och miljövänlig global infrastruktur för energi, som kan säkra en hållbar framtida utveckling. Tyvärr, finns inte väte i naturen som ren gas, utan existerar i kombination med andra grundämnen, såsom i vatten och organiska molekyler. Därför, förlitar sig en omfattande användning av väte som bränsle (detta kallas vanligen ?väteekonomi?) på utvecklingen av effektiv väteproduktion. Medan vårt fokus inte ligger på behoven av vätgaslagring och användningen av väte i bränsleceller, skulle vi ändå vilja nämna att omfattande framsteg krävs även inom dessa områden. Traditionellt produceras vätgas från naturgas genom reaktionen CH4(g) + H2O(g) ==> CO(g) + 3H2(g). (1) Den här reaktionen kräver mycket energi för att bryta de kemiska bindningarna och därför utförs den vid höga temperaturer (kring 800 °C) samt i närvaron av katalysatorer, vanligtvis Ni/Al2O3, som påskyndar bildandet av reaktionsprodukterna. Den syntetiska vätgasen som produceras på detta sätt måste separeras från CO gas som också produceras. Detta görs vanligen genom en kemisk rekation som kallas ?vatten-gas-växlingsreaktion?. Kolmonoxiden får då reagera med vatten för att producera mer väte och koldioxid, vilka på ett enklare sätt kan avlägsnas från blandningen. Reaktionen är som följer CO(g) + H2O(g) ==> CO2(g) + H2(g). (2) Problemet är att vätgasen som produceras på detta sätt innehåller någon andel kolmonoxid, vilket gör den olämplig för att användas i bränsleceller. Omvandlingen av etanol och biomassa anses också vara ett alternativ till vätgasproduktion eftersom de extraheras från återvinningsbara och miljövänliga källor. Men omvandlingen av etanol konsumerar mycket energi i form av värme samt kolmonoxid, så att reningsmetoder krävs även här. En ny och attraktiv metod för att producera vätgas är delningen av vatten i en process som kallas fotolys. I den här metoden används väldigt nanometerstora halvledarpartiklar som förs in i en vattenlösning och belyses sedan med ljus. Ljuset inducerar en laddningsöverföring från partiklarna till vattenmolekylerna, vilket leder till delning av vattenmolekylerna. Det finns många system tillgängliga i litteraturen, men de flesta av dem opererar i UV-regionen. Huvudmålet här är att finna ett system som absorberar hela skalan av synligt ljus så att man på ett mycket effektivt sätt att omvandla solenergi till kemisk energi. Varför solenergi? Bland den mängd olika återvinningsbara energikällor så är solen den absolut största. På en timme träffar cirka 4.3*10^20 J solljus jorden. Det är mer än all energi som för närvarande produceras på jorden på ett år. Just därför skulle solen vara en ypperlig energikälla för att producera vår energibärande vätgas som skulle fungera som ett syntetiskt bränsle.

I de material där vätet reversibelt kan lagras är dock är väteinnehållet per viktenhet ännu för lågt.

We suggest to start up this collaboration with a population-based study aiming to determine the feasibility, acceptability and real-life effectiveness of combined HIV prevention interventions targeting population groups that make up the majority of new infections: discordant couples and young women aged 15-24 years Kenya är ett av de länder i världen som drabbats hårdast av HIV-epidemin. Omkring 1,6 miljoner människor i landet bär på HIV. 1,1 miljoner barn har blivit föräldralösa som en följd av epidemin. År 2011 dog närmare 62,000 människor i Kenya av AIDS-relaterade sjukdomar och 104,137 beräknas ha nyinfekterats av viruset. Stora framsteg har dock skett avseende antalet HIV-infekterade i Kenya som erhåller antiretroviral läkemedelsbehandling (ART). Som en följd av detta har antalet dödsfall relaterat till AIDS minskat. År 2011 behandlades 83% av de vuxna HIV-infekterade i Kenya som uppfyllde kriterierna för antiretroviral behandling. Ibland barn är andelen infekterade som får behandling lägre (31%), men även ibland dessa ökar andelen behandlade. Kostnaden är det största hindret för att kunna inleda och fullfölja behandling av alla som uppfyller kriterierna för läkemedelsbehandling i Kenya. Eftersom behandling ej når alla med behov av detta, och eftersom antalet nyinfekterade fortfarande överstiger antalet döda i sjukdomen, så finns ett stort behov av satsningar för att förebygga vidare smittspridning. Utöver tidigare kända metoder för att förebygga HIV-smitta såsom minskat antal sexualpartners, kondomanvändning, behandling av sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar (STIs) och sprutbytesprogram så har ett antal åtgärder för att förebygga HIV-smitta visat sig effektiva i randomiserade kontrollerade studier - oftast inom högriskgrupper. Antiretroviral behandling för att förebygga smittspridning (TasP), kan förhindra smitta från mor till barn (PMTCT) och mellan sexualpartners. Andra åtgärder är manlig omskärelse samt preexposiotionsprofylax (PreP) med läkemedel som används före och/eller i samband med sexuell kontakt av den som ej är infekterad. I verkliga livet så kombineras ofta olika förebyggande åtgärder beroende på tillgång, acceptans och kunskap. Även om man kan anta att skyddseffekten ökar genom att kombinera flera smittförebyggande åtgärder, så finns också en risk för att exempelvis kondomanvändning minskar hos män som är omskurna eller hos sådana som erhåller antiretroviral behandling. Det kan också vara så att vissa åtgärder kan betraktas som för kostsamma, besvärliga, stigmatiserande eller oacceptabla för att användning av dessa ska få genomslag på samhällsnivå. Hur dessa delvis skyddande åtgärder kan kombineras och hur de påverkar riskbeteende och spridning av HIV på samhällsnivå i låginkomstländer är till stor del okänt. Denna populationsstudie kommer att kartlägga effektivitet, acceptans och grad av användande av kombinerade åtgärder för att förebygga HIV-smittspridning. Studien inriktas mot de grupper som står för störst antal nysmittade: kvinnor mellan 15-24 år och diskordanta par (där den ena partnern är smittad). Studien kommer att genomföras i områden med hög HIV-förekomst (runt 10%) i Nairobis slum samt i stadsmiljö och på landsbygd i västra Kenya.

Will use a TILLING wheat population, e.g. a non-GM method using the chemical EMS produces mutations in wheat seeds, called the M1 generation (10-15 000 lines). These seeds are planted and M2 seeds collected (ca. 2-3000 seeds depending on the EMS titration). One seed of each M2 line is planted for collection of M3 seeds. Harvesting the M3 generation will be the starting point for screening of specific traits due to enough seeds in hand. Up to the M3 generation Sweden will be the work place but then Bangladesh with great potential to grow larger quantities in field trials etc will be the work place. Except for salt tolerance we will in parallel look for e.g. high protein content in the grain, and slow energy releasing carbohydrate. The project took off in Dhaka May 2012 when Olsson and Aronsson visited Rahman and ACI. Since then the EMS titration and the M1 generation has been produced. In November 2013 M3 seeds will be in Bangladesh to be planted out prior the start of the growth season. The situation of millions of people in Bangladesh suffering from non-optimized usage of saline soil will be improved, and researchers in Bangladesh will benefit learning a useful technical approach for the future. I många områden i världen är det inte optimala odlingsförhållanden vilket kan ha negativa effekter för de människor som lever i dessa områden. De kan ha brist på mat och inte få i sig daglig näring i den utsträckning som möjliggör en dräglig vardag. De icke-optimal odlingsförhållanden kan vara miljöbetingade via olika sorters stress utifrån exempelvis vind, vatten, torka, salt, värme, kyla etcetera. Saltstress återfinns i Bangladesh i ett vidsträckt bälte kring landets kustområden och delvis inåt landet. Hög salthalt i jorden minskar möjligheterna för många växter att tillväxa optimalt eftersom vatten dels är svårare att ta upp och dels för att växter tar upp mer salter som i stora mängder kan sägas vara giftiga för växten. Växten får lägga energi dels på att ta upp vatten mer effektivt samtidigt som den får motarbeta förhöjda saltkoncentrationer i cellerna. För människorna betyder det också att utbytet av odling av grödor försämras och inte nyttjas optimalt och i slutändan leder det till undernäring och i värsta fall svält med dödsfall som resultat. Vad man gör är naturligtvis att förädla fram grödor som kan klara saltbördiga jordar bättre än andra grödor. Bl.a inriktar man sig på ris och vete i Bangladesh eftersom båda utgör en stor del av människornas föda i landet. Klassisk växtförädling har varit framgångrik sen ända sen människan började odla grödor. Meningen med klassisk växtförädling är att man korsar växter med olika egenskaper som man hoppas sen ska återfinnas i nästa generation, men man kan inte med säkerhet förutsäga vilka egenskaper som kommer föras över till nästa generation. I dagens moderna tidevarv med molekylärbiologiska och biotekniska applikationer kan forskare precist gå in och ändra så att man med större sökerhet kan få fram nya generationer av växter, så kallade genetiskt modifierade (GM), som innehåller egenskaper som efterfrågas, oftast också tidsbesparande. Men tveksamheter till GM växter i framför allt Europa har lett till att mycket av denna kunskap inte blommat ut fullt så som man skulle kunnat förvänta sig. Bland annat så är det svårt att få tillstånd till att odla GM växter. På grund av detta har vi valt att ta fram salttoleranta vetelinjer som inte är GM växter för att kunna få plantorna in i dagligt jordbruk utan eventuellt byråkratiska hinder. Den teknik vi kommer använda kallas för TILLING och utgår från att man behandlar frön från vete med en kemikalie kallad EMS som använts frekvent i svenskt jordbruk sen mitten av 1900-talet för att ta fram muterade växter. Men eftersom man inte tillför en gen eller tar bort en gen så går dessa behandlade växter ej under kriteriet GM växter. Med optimal titrering av EMS får man alla gener hos en större mängd vetefrön muterade. Dessa mutationer kommer ge upphov till nya egenskaper hos nästa generation. I vårt fall kommer vi leta efter tre egenskaper hos vete till att börja med: 1, tål hög salthalt i jorden; 2, har en hög proteinhalt i vetekornen; 3, har en hög andel kolhydrater som frigör energi långsamt. I första fallet är det för att kunna odla vete på jordar i Bangladesh som har hög salthalt. Vete kräver mindre vatten än ris och kan också odlas under flera årstider. Högre proetinhalt i kornen är för att den ökade koldioxidhalten i vår luft har bidragit till ca 10% minskad proteinhalt i vetekorn vilket har en negativ effekt för människor med vete som daglig huvudföda. En hög andel kolhydrater som frigör energi långsamt är bra för människor med diabetes, en sjukdom som även sprider sig snabbt bland befolkningen ibland annat Bangladesh. Det internationella samarbetet medför möjlighet till storskalig odling i Bangladesh under forskningen s fortskridande bland människor med stor kunskap om klassisk växtförädling.

These seeds are planted and M2 seeds collected (ca. 2-3000 seeds depending on the EMS titration). One seed of each M2 line is planted for collection of M3 seeds. Harvesting the M3 generation will be the starting point for screening of specific traits due to enough seeds in hand. Up to the M3 generation Sweden will be the work place but then Bangladesh with great potential to grow larger quantities in field trials etc will be the work place. Except for salt tolerance we will in parallel look for e.g. high protein content in the grain, and slow energy releasing carbohydrate. The project took off in Dhaka May 2012 when Olsson and Aronsson visited Rahman and ACI. Since then the EMS titration and the M1 generation has been produced. In November 2013 M3 seeds will be in Bangladesh to be planted out prior the start of the growth season. The situation of millions of people in Bangladesh suffering from non-optimized usage of saline soil will be improved, and researchers in Bangladesh will benefit learning a useful technical approach for the future. I många områden i världen är det inte optimala odlingsförhållanden vilket kan ha negativa effekter för de människor som lever i dessa områden. De kan ha brist på mat och inte få i sig daglig näring i den utsträckning som möjliggör en dräglig vardag. De icke-optimal odlingsförhållanden kan vara miljöbetingade via olika sorters stress utifrån exempelvis vind, vatten, torka, salt, värme, kyla etcetera. Saltstress återfinns i Bangladesh i ett vidsträckt bälte kring landets kustområden och delvis inåt landet. Hög salthalt i jorden minskar möjligheterna för många växter att tillväxa optimalt eftersom vatten dels är svårare att ta upp och dels för att växter tar upp mer salter som i stora mängder kan sägas vara giftiga för växten. Växten får lägga energi dels på att ta upp vatten mer effektivt samtidigt som den får motarbeta förhöjda saltkoncentrationer i cellerna. För människorna betyder det också att utbytet av odling av grödor försämras och inte nyttjas optimalt och i slutändan leder det till undernäring och i värsta fall svält med dödsfall som resultat. Vad man gör är naturligtvis att förädla fram grödor som kan klara saltbördiga jordar bättre än andra grödor. Bl.a inriktar man sig på ris och vete i Bangladesh eftersom båda utgör en stor del av människornas föda i landet. Klassisk växtförädling har varit framgångrik sen ända sen människan började odla grödor. Meningen med klassisk växtförädling är att man korsar växter med olika egenskaper som man hoppas sen ska återfinnas i nästa generation, men man kan inte med säkerhet förutsäga vilka egenskaper som kommer föras över till nästa generation. I dagens moderna tidevarv med molekylärbiologiska och biotekniska applikationer kan forskare precist gå in och ändra så att man med större sökerhet kan få fram nya generationer av växter, så kallade genetiskt modifierade (GM), som innehåller egenskaper som efterfrågas, oftast också tidsbesparande. Men tveksamheter till GM växter i framför allt Europa har lett till att mycket av denna kunskap inte blommat ut fullt så som man skulle kunnat förvänta sig. Bland annat så är det svårt att få tillstånd till att odla GM växter. På grund av detta har vi valt att ta fram salttoleranta vetelinjer som inte är GM växter för att kunna få plantorna in i dagligt jordbruk utan eventuellt byråkratiska hinder. Den teknik vi kommer använda kallas för TILLING och utgår från att man behandlar frön från vete med en kemikalie kallad EMS som använts frekvent i svenskt jordbruk sen mitten av 1900-talet för att ta fram muterade växter. Men eftersom man inte tillför en gen eller tar bort en gen så går dessa behandlade växter ej under kriteriet GM växter. Med optimal titrering av EMS får man alla gener hos en större mängd vetefrön muterade. Dessa mutationer kommer ge upphov till nya egenskaper hos nästa generation. I vårt fall kommer vi leta efter tre egenskaper hos vete till att börja med: 1, tål hög salthalt i jorden; 2, har en hög proteinhalt i vetekornen; 3, har en hög andel kolhydrater som frigör energi långsamt. I första fallet är det för att kunna odla vete på jordar i Bangladesh som har hög salthalt. Vete kräver mindre vatten än ris och kan också odlas under flera årstider. Högre proetinhalt i kornen är för att den ökade koldioxidhalten i vår luft har bidragit till ca 10% minskad proteinhalt i vetekorn vilket har en negativ effekt för människor med vete som daglig huvudföda. En hög andel kolhydrater som frigör energi långsamt är bra för människor med diabetes, en sjukdom som även sprider sig snabbt bland befolkningen ibland annat Bangladesh. Det internationella samarbetet medför möjlighet till storskalig odling i Bangladesh under forskningen s fortskridande bland människor med stor kunskap om klassisk växtförädling.

I vår alltmer urbaniserade värld bor snart en tredjedel av stadsborna i slumområden; i de så kallade informella delarna av städer. Slum kännetecknas av dåligt utbyggda - eller total avsaknad av - viktiga tjänster och infrastruktur, såsom rent vatten, el, avlopp, sophämtning och transporter. Där de formella strukturerna fallerar erbjuds de här tjänsterna istället av en växande informell sektor, till exempel sop-plockare som med häst och vagn hämtar sopor hos folk i slummen mot betalning. Många biståndsprogram har utan större framgång försökt ändra på detta och förbättra den formella försörjningen av tjänster i slumstadsdelar. Denna brist på framgång har fått både praktiker och forskare att alltmer intressera sig för så kallade *genomförandeunderskott*, d.v.s. gapen mellan vad som uttrycks i politiska mål och planer och vad som faktiskt genomförs i praktiken och i de stadsdelar som har de största behoven. Utifrån denna mycket problematiska skillnad tidigare mål och genomförande formuleras projektets forskningsfrågor som: - Hur går det till då program för avfallshantering i informella delar av städer i det globala syd? ska omsättas till praktisk verksamhet, vilka aktörer är inblandade, och vilka roller spelar de? - Vilka är de organisatoriska, sociala och rumsliga svårigheter som möter organisering av avfallshantering i sådana informella stadsdelar? - Hur kan dessa svårigheter bemästras? Vårt av studieområde - avfallshantering - är ett sätt att närma sig en problematik av generell karaktär: hur grundläggande tjänster och infrastruktur organiseras i informella stadsdelar.

In an international perspective, evidence exists that describe how poor health and fatalities relate to climate directly and indirectly. However, on a local level in low- and middle- income countries, including Indonesia and Vietnam, the evidence of climate change health impacts on communities is limited or totally lacking hindering adaptation efforts. Researchers from Umeå University have recently been involved in projects aiming to fill some of these research gaps in low- and middle-income countries. These efforts have gained significant international attention. We are for the moment looking for possibilities and funding to strengthen the collaboration with Indonesia and Vietnam to continue a recently initiated research collaboration. The proposed project focuses on generating local evidence of climate change impacts, and the need for adaptation and mitigation strategies in these two countries and to build local capacity through a north-south partnership. Suggested methods include development of courses, workshops, and research exchange. The project will also provide mentoring and economical support to facilitate publication of research in international scientific journals. The potential impacts from the proposed project have significant international as well as local value. We anticipate the proposed project would also help the effort to build a long-term and sustained international partnership. Klimatförändringar medför risker för hälsa och välbefinnande i världen och länder som Indonesien och Vietnam är hårt drabbade av torka, cykloner, översvämningar, värmeböljor, vattenbrist och minskad livsmedelsproduktion. I ett internationellt perspektiv finns bevis på hur klimatförändringen riskerar att påverka människors hälsa på olika sätt, men i Indonesien och Vietnam saknas denna typ av evidens, framför allt på lokal nivå. Beslutsfattare har därför begränsad kunskap om vilka konsekvenser som kan drabba samhället och det råder stor brist på experter som kan stödja och vägleda anpassningsinitiativ och utveckling av policys som ämnar öka motståndskraften hos befolkningen. Vid Umeå Universitet har man bedrivit forsknings och undervisning om klimatförändringar och hälsokonsekvenser sedan många år tillbaka. Forskningskompetensen är internationellt erkänd och flera av de personer som är forskningsaktiva i Umeå är involverade i internationella sammanhang, t.ex. FNs klimatpanel, samt i forskning och klimatförändringar i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Det övergripande syftet med projektet är att stödja forskning inom området klimat och hälsa i Vietnam och Indonesien med utgångspunkt från lokala behov och lokala data. Projektet ämnar även främja etableringen av lokalt förankrad men internationellt erkänd expertis och ett forskningsklimat där forskare tar en aktiv del i arbetet med att utveckla anpassningsstrategier och policys på lokal nivå. I detalj syftar projektet till att; i) skapa förutsättningar för ett aktivt samarbete mellan Sverige, Indonesien och Vietnam rörande forskning och utbildning inom området klimatförändringar och hälsa, ii) Aktivt stödja forskningssamarbete och erbjuda möjligheter för Indonesiska and Vietnamesiska forskare att publicera sin forskning i internationella tidskrifter, iii) Stimulera forskningsinitiativ inom området hållbar utveckling och hälsa, iv) Uppmuntra lokala forskare att ta en ledande roll som nationella och lokala experter inom området klimatförändringar och hälsa, samt v) Stödja utvecklingen av en forskningskultur där forskare tar aktiv del i genereringen av evidensbaserade politiska processer och strategier. Relevans: Klimatförändringarna är en global och kritisk fråga och låg- och medelinkomstländer är de som kommer att möta flest utmaningar med potentiella förödande konsekvenser för samhället och människors hälsa. Extra svårt tros klimatförändringarna påverka fattiga grupper i samhället samt kvinnor. Eftersom Vietnam och Indonesien är två länder där forskning om klimatförändringar och hälsa med ett lokalt perspektiv i stort sett saknas kommer projektet att skapa kunskap som är kritisk för att överhuvudtaget kunna utveckla strategier för att begränsa dessa konsekvenser. Ett av de viktigaste syftena med projektet är att stödja arbetet med att översätta de vetenskapliga resultaten till handling, genom att främja en forskningskultur där forskarna tar aktiv del i arbetet med att forma evidensbaserade anpassningsåtgärder. Därmed kommer projektet att direkt bidra till att öka befolkningens kapacitet att hantera existerande och kommande hälsokonsekvenser, samt bidra till ökad jämställdhet och ökat skydd för fattiga samhällsgrupper. Preliminära resultat: Umeå Universitet har erfarenhet från mer än 20 års samarbete med Indonesien inom området folkhälsa. Sedan 2012 innefattar detta även samarbete forskningsområdet klimatförändring och hälsa genom ett SIDA-finansierat projekt. Detta projekt har under 2012-2013 genererat resultat som starkt understryker behovet av lokal forskning och lokal evidens för att starta och stödja processer med att skydda befolkningen mot klimatförändringens effekter. I Vietnam pågår ett annat initiativ som har utmynnat i 2 workshops som fokuserat på analys och generering av lokal forskning med fokus på klimatförändringar och hälsa.

In an international perspective, evidence exists that describe how poor health and fatalities relate to climate directly and indirectly. However, on a local level in low- and middle- income countries, including Indonesia and Vietnam, the evidence of climate change health impacts on communities is limited or totally lacking hindering adaptation efforts. Researchers from Umeå University have recently been involved in projects aiming to fill some of these research gaps in low- and middle-income countries. These efforts have gained significant international attention. We are for the moment looking for possibilities and funding to strengthen the collaboration with Indonesia and Vietnam to continue a recently initiated research collaboration. The proposed project focuses on generating local evidence of climate change impacts, and the need for adaptation and mitigation strategies in these two countries and to build local capacity through a north-south partnership. Suggested methods include development of courses, workshops, and research exchange. The project will also provide mentoring and economical support to facilitate publication of research in international scientific journals. The potential impacts from the proposed project have significant international as well as local value. We anticipate the proposed project would also help the effort to build a long-term and sustained international partnership. Klimatförändringar medför risker för hälsa och välbefinnande i världen och länder som Indonesien och Vietnam är hårt drabbade av torka, cykloner, översvämningar, värmeböljor, vattenbrist och minskad livsmedelsproduktion. I ett internationellt perspektiv finns bevis på hur klimatförändringen riskerar att påverka människors hälsa på olika sätt, men i Indonesien och Vietnam saknas denna typ av evidens, framför allt på lokal nivå. Beslutsfattare har därför begränsad kunskap om vilka konsekvenser som kan drabba samhället och det råder stor brist på experter som kan stödja och vägleda anpassningsinitiativ och utveckling av policys som ämnar öka motståndskraften hos befolkningen. Vid Umeå Universitet har man bedrivit forsknings och undervisning om klimatförändringar och hälsokonsekvenser sedan många år tillbaka. Forskningskompetensen är internationellt erkänd och flera av de personer som är forskningsaktiva i Umeå är involverade i internationella sammanhang, t.ex. FNs klimatpanel, samt i forskning och klimatförändringar i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Det övergripande syftet med projektet är att stödja forskning inom området klimat och hälsa i Vietnam och Indonesien med utgångspunkt från lokala behov och lokala data.

They enable numerous applications such as environmental monitoring, surveillance and control. Many applications, and the low cost, make these networks interesting for developing countries. Sensor nodes are usually battery-driven, and the main energy consumer is the radio. SICS has recently developed a directional antenna (SPIDA) whose direction can be controlled via software and that, in contrast to other similar antennas, fits well with existing sensor nodes. Our earlier simulation results show that using these antennas we can halve energy consumption while achieving higher packet delivery rates compared to omni-directional antennas. The major gain stems from avoiding packet collisions. We see potential to further reduce the energy consumption and packet loss.

Trådlösa sensornätverk består av små inbyggda system, utrustade med sensorer, som kommunicerar via radio (sensornoder, hädanefter). De kan användas för att övervaka till exempel känsliga utomhusmiljöer, eller för övervakning och styrning inom industrin. De många användningsområdena och den låga kostnaden gör att sensornätverk är intressanta för utvecklingsländer. Sensornoderna är ofta batteridrivna med radion som den största energiförbrukaren. Martin Nilsson på SICS har nyligen utvecklat en riktbar antenn, SPIDA, som kan kontrolleras via mjukvara. Den är till skillnad från liknande antenner redan anpassad till existerande sensornoder. Tidigare resultat baserad på simulering visar att med dessa antenner kan energiförbrukningen reduceras drastiskt, samtidigt som dataförlusterna via radion minskar jämfört med icke-riktade antenner. Den största besparingen kommer av att de riktade antennerna minskar antalet kollisioner i radiotrafiken när flera sensornoder samtidigt använder radio. Vi ser en god potential att fortsätta minska energiförbrukningen och mängden radiokollisioner med hjälp av SPIDA. Energiförbrukningen kan minskas ytterligare när man också styr mottagarens antenn och inte bara sändarens. Detta gör också mottagaren mera robust mot radiostörningar från andra enheter som använder samma frekvensband. Dessutom tror vi att man kan skapa parallella dataströmmar vilket inte skulle vara möjligt om man riktade bara sändaren eller mottagarens antenn. I detta fall skulle man nämligen få kollisioner som förstör datapaketen. Parallella dataströmmar är intressanta för tillämpningar där man vill skicka mycket data under en kort tid. De flesta forskare har inte använt riktiga antennar utan gjort simuleringar baserade på förenklade antennmodeller. Detta gör det oklart om deras resultat håller i verkligheten. Vi baserar våra modeller på mätdata från riktiga antenner vilket medför att våra simuleringsresultat ligger närmare det vi kan åstadkomma i verkligheten. Vår forskning möjliggör sensornätverk som med mindre energiförbukning leverar mer data även under svåra radioförhållanden.

Further, the damage caused by elephants to property and crop is tens of thousands of Euros. Our project targets wireless sensor actuator networks to understand the behaviour of elephants better, warn villagers when elephants come close and tries to prevent the elephants from entering fields and villages by flexible actuation (lights, sounds etc). Sensor networks are well suited for this task due to low cost and the intelligence that can be put into the network. While sensor networks have been deployed for animal monitoring there are only a few that also include actuation and none has targeted elephants, intelligent and huge animals which makes this task challenging. Since each deployment usually develops their own management subsystem, we develop a novel management subsystem based on recently developments: Antelope, a unique on-node database management system developed by Voigt´s PhD student, and UCSC´s TikiriDB, that enables SQL-like query and actuation commands. Considering the non-stable infrastructure in Sri Lanka, the storage-centric paradigm of our management system will help to break the dependency on steady availability of the base station assumed in previous deployments. The elephant monitoring and control application will demonstrate the efficiency of our solution and at the same time help to solve a challenging societal problem in Sri Lanka. I Sri Lanka kan det uppstå stora problem när elefanter och människor möts. Varje år dör 150 elefanter och 60 människor i dessa situationer. Elefanterna orsakar även stor skada på egendom och grödor, med årliga kostnader på tiotusentals euro. I detta projekt kommer vi använda trådlösa sensornät för att lära oss mer om elefanternas beteende och för att kunna varna människor när elefanter kommer för nära byar och jordbruk. I samarbete med zoologer vill även utveckla lämpliga varningssignaler (ljus, ljud, m.m.) som kan styras från sensornäten, för att på så vis förhindra att elefanterna kommer för nära. Sensornät är väl lämpade för denna uppgift på grund av dess låga kostnad och dess kapacitet att lösa komplicerade uppgifter med hjälp av många sensorer som samarbetar mot ett gemensamt mål. Även om sensornät har använts tidigare för att studera djur, så är det endast ett fåtal sådana som även styr signaler som kommunicerar med djuren. Vidare är vår inriktning på elefanter unik i detta hänseende, där dessa stora och intelligenta djur gör denna uppgift till en utmaning. Tekniken som kommer användas i sensornäten i Sri Lanka kombinerar och bygger vidare på den senaste forskningen från Sverige och Sri Lanka. Tidigare har varje utplacerat sensornät använt egenutvecklade system för låta forskare kontrollera nätet utifrån. I vårt fall vill vi utveckla ett nytt kontrollsystem som bygger på Antelope, ett nytt databassystem för lagring av strukturerad data direkt i sensornoder utvecklad av Thiemo Voigts doktorand Nicolas Tsiftes, samt TikiriDB, vilket är USCS:s metod för att modellera hela sensornätet som en databas och skicka SQL-liknande kommandon till nätet. Med tanke på den opålitliga infrastrukturen i Sri Lanka kan denna metod för att lagra data lokalt på noderna i stället för att periodiskt skicka den med radio bryta behovet av hög tillgänglighet till en basstation.

Early and efficient diagnosis of breast cancer is essential for the treatment/ disease management. Presently X-rays are used for diagnosis of breast cancer that have certain limitations due to ionizing nature and may itself cause cancer,and it cannot differentiate between benign and malignant tumors, especially in dense breast. Diffused optical spectroscopy (DOS), on the other hand, utilizes near NIR non-ionizing radiations, has proven itself a potential candidate for the non-invasive and efficient diagnosis of cancer. It is based on the absorption and scattering properties of cancerous tissues. Two approaches has been developed so far, namely Time and Frequency-resolved DOS for the determination of the optical properties of normal and diseased tissues. In this project, our aim is to achieve improvements in optical diagnostics of female breast. The research and development of the proposed project will be carried out through collaboration between National Institute of Lasers and Optronics Islamabad and Lund University Sweden. In-vivo studies on cancer patients will be carried out at Nuclear oncology Radiation Institute Islamabad Pakistan. The results of this project has the potential to benefit many patients yearly. Utveckling av frekvensupplöst diffust optiskt spektroskopisystem för optisk mammografi Bröstcancer är en ledande orsak till cancerrelaterad dödlighet bland kvinnor i hela världen. För närvarande är Röntgenavbildning, magnetisk resonanstomografi (MRT), ultraljud och radioisotopavbildning tekniker som rutinmässigt används för diagnostik av cancer. Alla dessa lider av begränsningar i användbarhet. Röntgen-baserade tekniker används i många länder för screening av bröstcancer, men kan för vissa patienter ge svårtolkade resultat, vilket tar ned känslighet och specificitet i diagnostiken. Dessutom, kan röntgenstrålningen i sig orsaka biverkningar på grund av sin joniserande natur. Röntgenbaserade tekniker är inte heller kapabla att skilja mellan godartade och elakartade tumörer. På samma sätt har radioisotopavbildning (t.ex. PET (?Positron emission tomography?) och SPECT (?Single Photon emission computer tomography?)) begränsade tillämpningar för bröstcancerdiagnostik då ett radioaktivt kontrastmedel,som kan ha sidoeffekter,krävs. Ultraljud å sin sida saknar upplösningen att upptäcka föremål mindre än några millimetrar. Den teknik som erbjuder såväl submilimeter upplösning som förmåga att detektera specifika kemiska ämnen i kroppen är MRT. Denna teknik kräveremellertid supraledande magneter vilket gör den mycket dyr. Mot denna bakgrund är det intressant att utveckla en avbildande teknik som är icke invasiv, säker, billig, kompakt och kan övervaka vävnadskemiska förhållanden in vivo, företrädesvis i realtid. Optiska diagnostiska metoder är icke-invasiva, ofarliga och kostnadseffektiva, och är därför potentiellt intressanta för medicinsk diagnostik av cancer för världsomspännande populationer. Optisk mammografi syftar till att upptäcka onormal bröstvävnad och att diskriminera mellan malign och godartad vävnad, baserat på skillnader i optiska egenskaper mellan patologiska lesioner och frisk vävnad. De optiska absorptionsegenskaperna kan ge information om vävnadssammansättning och besläktade fysiologiska parametrar (som blodets syresättning), medan ljusspridningen beror på den mikroskopiska strukturen av vävnad, och kan ge information om dess densitet. Optisk mammografi kandärför betraktas som en icke-invasiv funktionell medicinsk avbildningsmodalitet, med vilket syftet är att erhålla tredimensionella bilder av vävnaden i det infraröda (NIR) eller synligt röda våglängdsområdet. Absorptionen vid olika våglängder är av särskilt intresse, då denstarktberor på koncentrationen av syresatt och icke-syresatt hemoglobin (HbO2 och Hb). Förändringarna i syresatt och syrefattigt hemoglobin kan vara en viktig information som kan hjälpa till att diagnostisera friska och maligna vävnader. Tids- och frekvens-upplöst diffus optisk spektroskopi har redan utvecklats för diagnostik av vävnad. Dessa tekniker kräver fortfarande förbättringar i fråga om precision och robusthet för såväl mätinstrument som algoritmer. Det nu föreslagna projektet syftar till att utveckla system för optisk mammografi som kombinerar frekvens-domän (FD) signaler och mätning av reflekterat kontinuerligt vitljus. Detta instrument kommer att byggas i Pakistan i samarbete med Lund. Lund kommer därmed hjälpa det pakistanska samhället med utveckling av medicinsk teknik gångbar i tredje världen för diagnostik av kvinnors bröstcancer. Detta kan resultera i räddade liv i bekämpning av denna dödliga sjukdom.

Röntgen-baserade tekniker används i många länder för screening av bröstcancer, men kan för vissa patienter ge svårtolkade resultat, vilket tar ned känslighet och specificitet i diagnostiken. Dessutom, kan röntgenstrålningen i sig orsaka biverkningar på grund av sin joniserande natur. Röntgenbaserade tekniker är inte heller kapabla att skilja mellan godartade och elakartade tumörer. På samma sätt har radioisotopavbildning (t.ex. PET (?Positron emission tomography?) och SPECT (?Single Photon emission computer tomography?)) begränsade tillämpningar för bröstcancerdiagnostik då ett radioaktivt kontrastmedel,som kan ha sidoeffekter,krävs. Ultraljud å sin sida saknar upplösningen att upptäcka föremål mindre än några millimetrar. Den teknik som erbjuder såväl submilimeter upplösning som förmåga att detektera specifika kemiska ämnen i kroppen är MRT. Denna teknik kräveremellertid supraledande magneter vilket gör den mycket dyr. Mot denna bakgrund är det intressant att utveckla en avbildande teknik som är icke invasiv, säker, billig, kompakt och kan övervaka vävnadskemiska förhållanden in vivo, företrädesvis i realtid. Optiska diagnostiska metoder är icke-invasiva, ofarliga och kostnadseffektiva, och är därför potentiellt intressanta för medicinsk diagnostik av cancer för världsomspännande populationer. Optisk mammografi syftar till att upptäcka onormal bröstvävnad och att diskriminera mellan malign och godartad vävnad, baserat på skillnader i optiska egenskaper mellan patologiska lesioner och frisk vävnad. De optiska absorptionsegenskaperna kan ge information om vävnadssammansättning och besläktade fysiologiska parametrar (som blodets syresättning), medan ljusspridningen beror på den mikroskopiska strukturen av vävnad, och kan ge information om dess densitet. Optisk mammografi kandärför betraktas som en icke-invasiv funktionell medicinsk avbildningsmodalitet, med vilket syftet är att erhålla tredimensionella bilder av vävnaden i det infraröda (NIR) eller synligt röda våglängdsområdet. Absorptionen vid olika våglängder är av särskilt intresse, då denstarktberor på koncentrationen av syresatt och icke-syresatt hemoglobin (HbO2 och Hb). Förändringarna i syresatt och syrefattigt hemoglobin kan vara en viktig information som kan hjälpa till att diagnostisera friska och maligna vävnader. Tids- och frekvens-upplöst diffus optisk spektroskopi har redan utvecklats för diagnostik av vävnad. Dessa tekniker kräver fortfarande förbättringar i fråga om precision och robusthet för såväl mätinstrument som algoritmer. Det nu föreslagna projektet syftar till att utveckla system för optisk mammografi som kombinerar frekvens-domän (FD) signaler och mätning av reflekterat kontinuerligt vitljus. Detta instrument kommer att byggas i Pakistan i samarbete med Lund. Lund kommer därmed hjälpa det pakistanska samhället med utveckling av medicinsk teknik gångbar i tredje världen för diagnostik av kvinnors bröstcancer. Detta kan resultera i räddade liv i bekämpning av denna dödliga sjukdom.

Surface reconstruction from the pristine cleavages of sulfide minerals. 2. Interaction of water with the reconstructed sulfide mineral surfaces. 3. Interaction of molecules present in the leaching solution with the sulfide mineral surfaces. 4. Oxidation mechanism of the sulfide minerals in the presence of leaching agents such as Fe(III). The main goal of the project is to contribute to determine the chemistry of AMD with the purpose of finding means to alleviate this environmental hazard with particular focus on conditions of AMD in Brazil.

Today SiO2-technology, inherited from traditional Si manufacturing, is the dominating choice both for passivation layers and as gate dielectrics. This limits the usefulness of SiC and results in low surface mobilities, poor reliability, lower breakdown fields and lower temperature operation than would be the case with a more optimized dielectric layer. Preliminary results show that aluminum oxide (Al2O3) can be a better choice due to its larger dielectric constant and better thermal stability than SiO2. The main objective of the project is to acquire an atomic-level understanding of chemical bonding at the Al2O3/SiC interface. This will help in optimization of the depositions process, also of other high-k dielectrics on 4H-SiC. The goal will be reached by a detailed investigation of the electronic structure, using refined X-ray techniques, in combination with studies of the atomic stoichiometry and positioning of atoms at the interface, using novel ion beam scattering techniques. The research will predominantly be performed in Sweden, using unique resources both for processing and characterization in an environment of other SiC related research. The co-applicant of this proposal is a former PhD student of the main applicant and well acquainted with this environment. Kiselkarbid (SiC) är ett halvledarmaterial som kan användas till att tillverka elektronikkomponenter som tål mycket högre spänningar och temperaturer än dagens kiselkomponenter. Utveckling av materialet har skett under snart 20 år i både Europa, USA och Asien och Sverige har en mycket framskjuten position inom denna forskning. Det är framför allt materialets spänningstålighet (10 gånger större än kisel) och den goda temperaturledningsförmågan (3 gånger större än kisel), som gör att det är så användbart i tillämpningar för höga elektriska effekter. Genom att ersätta dagens kisel-baserade kraftelektronik med SiC-komponenter kan mankraftigt reducera energianvändandet tack vare att SiC-komponenternas effektförluster är betydligt mindre. En ny generation krafthalvledarkomponenter kommer också att göra ny miljövänlig energiproduktion tillgänglig genom att effektivisera reglering och effektuttag för t ex vind- och våggeneratorer. Det kommer också att avsevärt förenkla introduktionen av elbilar och hybridfordon genom att elektroniken blir effektivare och betydligt mindre utrymmeskrävande. Dessutom slipper man stora och tunga vätskekylda system, eftersom man kan klara sig med luftkylning och detta kan vara avgörande för eldrifter av lättare fordon. Idag kan man köpa enklare SiC-komponenter, s k Schottkydioder, som kan användas i spänningsomvandlare, batteriladdare, och andra liknande tillämpningar. Det är dock väldigt svårt att konkurrera med kisel-komponenter, eftersom priset för dessa än så länge är betydligt lägre. Det är framför allt för högre effekter och för mer komplicerade komponenter, transistorer, som fördelarna med SiC kommer till sin rätt och där man kan förvänta sig de stora vinsterna, både ekonomiska och miljömässiga. Med detta projekt vill vi driva på utvecklingen mot dessa högspända SiC komponenter. En av de återstående flaskhalsarna är det material och de tekniker som används för att skydda ?passivera- SiC materialets ytor. Komponenter av SiC arbetar under extremt höga elektriska fält och temperaturer. Själva kiselkarbiden tål detta, men komponenterna måste ju fungera i en omgivning som inte tål sådana påfrestningar. Därför kommer de kontaktmaterial, inkapslingar och omgivande strukturer att vara begränsande för hur hårt kiselkarbiden kan utnyttjas. De största problemen finns just i gränsytan mellan kiselkarbiden och det första omslutande materialet, som oftast utgörs av ett elektriskt isolerande skikt. Idag används en teknologi som lånats från kiselteknologin, nämligen att omsluta SiC med kiseldioxid, SiO2. Detta är främst av praktiska skäl, eftersom teknologin existerar och fungerar hjälpligt för de spänningsnivåer som dagens SiC komponenter når upp till. Kiseldioxid används också som isolering för tänd- och släckbara komponenter som regleras med elektriska fält, s k MOS-transistorer. På sikt, med högre spänningsnivåer och för högre temperaturer, behövs dock andra lösningar än SiO2. I detta projekt ska vi i detalj studera gränsytan mellan SiC och aluminiumoxid, ett annat mycket isolerande material som har visat sig ha bättre egenskaper än SiO2. Denna teknologi är dock ännu inte utvecklad och man behöver lära sig mer om ytpreparering och deponeringsmetoderna innan den kan etablera sig. Dessutom är det ännu tämligen outforskat vad som händer i gränsytan på atomär nivå när SiC beläggs med aluminiumoxid. I projektet ska vi inrikta oss på förståelsen av detta gränsskikt och försöka optimera ytprepareringen och deponeringsparmetrar för att göra gränsskiktet så bra som möjligt. Vi kommer att använda modern röntgenspektroskopi baserad på synkrotronljus för att studera elektronstrukturen i gränsskiktet och även använda ny analysteknik med jonstrålar för att studera positionen av olika atomer på ytan. Detta kompletteras med elektriska mätningar, t ex kapacitans och ström-mätningar. Arbete görs i huvudsak i Sverige, där vi inom vår forskargrupp har tillgång till de olika process- och karakteriseringsmetoderna.

Today SiO2-technology, inherited from traditional Si manufacturing, is the dominating choice both for passivation layers and as gate dielectrics. This limits the usefulness of SiC and results in low surface mobilities, poor reliability, lower breakdown fields and lower temperature operation than would be the case with a more optimized dielectric layer.

En speciellt intressant effekt är, att icke-linjäriteten kan leda till att ljuset inte sprider ut sig bland vågledarna så som det skulle gjort om systemet varit linjärt, utan huvudsakligen förblir lokaliserat runt en enda vågledare.

Ett centralt problem, både ur en fundamental teoretisk och en praktisk tillämpbar synvinkel, är att bättre förstå vilka villkor som måste vara uppfyllda för att en diskret soliton ska vara rörlig, så att en väl lokaliserad ljusvåg transporteras i systemet.

It is the first cancer to be associated with a retroviral infection and occurs in 5% of the people infected by HTLV-1 (Human T-cell lymphotropic virus-1). In general ATL becomes resistant to chemotherapy and while awaiting new therapeutics, patients commonly face a detrimental progress of the disease and death. The viral oncoprotein Tax has been identified as a key player in the etiology of ATL, acting by inducing antiapoptotic and proliferative cellular programs. Our preliminary results suggest that degradation of Tax induces loss of self-renewal and death of leukemia initiating cells (LICs), providing a novel target area for the development of new ATL therapeutics. Indeed, we have found that a combined treatment with interferon-alpha and arsenic trioxide specifically induce Tax degradation in ATL cell lines and prolongs the life of a murine ATL model. This project aims at studying the molecular mechanism of IFN/arsenic-induced Tax degradation with an emphasis on the extensive modifications of Tax by ubiquitin-like posttranslational modifications. By joining forces, we will build a platform where the Drosophila model system will be combined with mammalian tissue culture and in vivo studies in mice, to enable a rapid progress in our understanding of the Tax oncoprotein. Ultimately, our goal is to provide a new treatment paradigm for curing ATL. Adult T-cellsleukemi (ATL) är en aggressiv tumörsjukdom som har starka kopplingar till det humana retroviruset HTLV-1 (humant T-lymphotropt virus typ 1). Sjukdomen drabbar främst människor i låg- och medelinkomst länder, så som sydvästra Japan, den Karibiska övärlden samt delar av Afrika och Mellanöstern, men har genom invandring blivit vanligare även i andra delar av världen, inklusive Sverige. Man räknar med att ca 5 % av de 20-30 miljoner människor som idag är bärare av HTLV-1 kommer att utveckla ATL, vilket ofta inträffar efter en långvarig latensperiod på upp till 20-30 år. Patienter med ATL insjuknar som regel akut med en allmän sjukdomskänsla av trötthet, feber och hosta, uppvisar lymfkörtelförstoring och hudutslag och diagnosticeras i allmänhet genom uppvisande av kraftigt förhöjda nivåer av cirkulerande T-lymfocyter med karateristiskt veckade cellkärnor, samt laboratoriskt genom förekomst av antikroppar mot HTLV-1 viruset. Sjukdomsförloppet som följer after diagnosen är ofta elakartat och karaktäriseras av opportunistiska infektioner och organsvikt. ATL patienter utvecklar i allmänhet resistens mot cytostatikabehandling, vilket ger sjukdomen en dålig prognos där den förväntade överlevnaden i dagsläget inte är längre än ett år. ATL sprids från mor till barn via bröstmjölken, men även genom sexuella kontakter samt blod och blodprodukter. Ett protein som identifierats som en viktig bidragande orsak till ATL är det virala onkoproteinet Tax. Tax tillverkas i de infekterade T-cellerna av HTLV-1 viruset och har som funktion både att stimulera produktionen av nya viruspartiklar och att säkerställa överlevnaden av värdcellen. Genom flera vetenskapliga studier har man kunnat påvisa att Tax-proteinet påverkar en rad av våra cellulära processer. Tax hindrar den programmerade celldöd som ofta används för att undvika spridning av infektioner (apoptos), stimulerar kroppens immunförsvar (NF-kappaB signalering) vilket leder till rekrytering av fler T-celler, och aktiverar flera av de cellulära program som stimulerar tillväxt och celldelning. Man har även observerat att transgena möss som på konstgjord väg inducerats att producera Tax-proteinet, utvecklar en sjukdomsbild som på många sätt liknar ATL i människor. Studier som genomförts i professor Ali Bazarbachis laboratorium i Beirut, Libanon, har visat att Tax-proteinet är absolut nödvändigt för bildandet av ATL och att avlägsning av Tax kan hindra eller till och med bota tumörbildningen. Genom studier i klinik, möss och cellinjer etablerade från ATL-patienter har forskargruppen kommit fram till att en behandling där den immun-stimulerande substansen (cytokinet) interferon-alpha kombineras med arsenik (IFN-alpha/arsenik), aktivt kan stimulera nedbrytning av Tax-proteinet och eliminera de sjukdomsframkallande ATL-stamcellerna (vilka kallas för LIC = leukocyt-initierande celler). Tillsammans med en forskargrupp vid Umeå universitet som leds av Caroline Grabbe, vill nu Bazarbachi-laboratoriet arbeta vidare för att ta reda på vilken mekanism som ligger bakom den IFN-alpha/arsenik-inducerade elimineringen av denna sjukdom. Forskargruppen i Sverige använder biokemiska metoder samt bananflugan som modellsystem för att studera en grupp små proteiner (ubiquitin-liknande molekyler (UBL)) som påverkar många av våra intracellulära signalvägar och proteiner.

Genom detta samarbete har vi som målsättning att bilda en plattform som gör det möjligt att utföra studier som sträcker sig från molekylära/genetiska frågeställningar i bananfluga och cellinjer, till fysiologiska analyser i mus och ända in i kliniken, där behandling av ATL-pa Sweden Umeå universitet The Swedish Research Council Umeå universitet Gender Equality Aid to Environment Participatory Development/Good Governance Trade Development Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Mitigation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Adaptation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention to Combat Desertification Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH) Disaster Risk Reduction(DRR) Disability 281000 215000 245000 741000 Umeå universitet 281000 Umeå universitet 214992 Umeå universitet 245000 Umeå universitet SE-0-SE-29-2013-6762 Sweden The main aim is mutual exchange of knowledge and research methodology in environmental medicine, in particular on associations between health and indoor exposures. Schools is an important environment for children, and we will focus on studies on health effects of the school environment in Malaysia. In addition we will include epidemiological studies on the home environment, day care centres and the office environment in Malaysia. We measure key pollutants from indoor and outdoor sources, including house dust mite, tropical storage mites, cockroach and furry pet allergens, fungal DNA (a marker of mould), microbial components from moulds and bacteria, formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds (VOC) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). Outdoor measurements will be performed in parallel. We study the prevalence of asthma, asthmatic symptoms and other respiratory symptoms, and allergy among the pupils, and associations between these health parameters and the exposure in the school environment, day care environment and the dwelling. Moreover we measure NO in exhaled air, a clinical marker of asthma and tear film break up time (BUT), a marker of eye irritation. The project is important since there is few previous studies on the school, day care centre and office environment in Malaysia. The co-operation will include workshops with Malaysian and Swedish participants, training of Malaysian master and PhD students in Sweden, and a number of collaborative scientific publications are planned.

The underlying cause of the inflammatory attack against PNS nerves in GBS remains largely unknown. Recently, a particular T cell subset that expresses the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17 (T helper 17) cells and IL-23 has been identified as a novel mechanism mediating tissue inflammation and autoimmune response. The overall goal of the collaborative project is provide the necessary rationale to introduce specific biologic agents that block the IL23/IL17/Th17 pathway in the treatment of GBS patients with Swedish and Pakistani origin. We will do: 1) Explore the role of IL-23 in disease development and progression in EAN, an animal model for GBS; 2) Examine the effect of IL-23 on T cells from EAN mice and GBS patients; 3) Identify the molecular pathways that mediate the effect of IL-23 on EAN and GBS T cells; 4) Determine IL-23 affects on T and B cell cooperation; 5) Determine the therapeutic effects of specific biologic agents that block the IL23/IL17/Th17 pathway in EAN in vivo and GBS in vitro.

De immunmedierade polyneuropatierna, Guillain-Barrés syndrom (GBS) är en inflammatorisk demyeliniserande sjukdom i det perifera nervsystemet (PNS), som vanligen leder till en mycket hög nivå till neurologiskt handikapp trots behandling med antiinflamamtoriska medel såsom intravenös immunoglobulin (IvIg) och kortison. Årligen förekommer 2-15 fall av GBS per befolkning av 100,000 personer. Även om tidigare infektioner i andningsorganen och mag-/tarmkanalen (hos 50-60% av GBS-patienterna) talar för externa miljöfaktorers betydelse för sjukdomsprocessen. Den underliggande orsaken till det inflammatoriska angreppet mot PNS vid GBS är fortfarande till stor del okända. Därmed saknas det immunoterapeutiska behandlingar som är riktade mot sjukdomsspecifik neuroinflammation vid GBS och CIDP och många patienter blir kroniskt handikappade, och 5-10% dör under den akuta fasen, trots behandling med immunomodulerande läkemedel. Det har bevisats att infektioner med Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni), vilket är en ledande orsak till akuta bakteriella gastroenterit förknippas med GBS. En hög incidens av C. jejuni infektioner har hittats i många utvecklingsländer, till exempel Pakistan. Därför, är GBS orsakad av C. jejuni infektion en vanlig sjukdom i Pakistan. Experimentell autoimmun neurit (EAN) speglar många av de kliniska, immunologiska och morfologiska aspekterna av GBS och fungerar som en experimentell modell för studier av patogenes, immunoreglering och terapi för human GBS eller mer generella T-cellsmedierade autoimmuna sjukdomar. På senare tid har en viss typ av vitablodkroppar vid namn T-celler (T hjälparceller) som uttrycker pro-inflammatorisk cytokinen IL-17 (Th17-celler) och IL-23 identifierats som en ny mediatör av vävnad inflammation vid autoimmuna tillstånd. Det övergripande målet för detta samarbetsprojekt är undersöka eventuella rollen av IL-17/IL-23/Th17-celler vid uppkomst av autoimmun inflammation i PNS vid GBS. Om dessa cytokiner visar sig vara en bidragande sjukdomsframkallande mekanism vid GBS, finns det i sin tur potential till behandling med biologiska läkemedel som påverkar sekretion eller effekt av IL-23/IL-17 vid dessa sjukdomstillstånd. Vi planerar att: 1) undersöka effekten av IL-23 på blod T-celler från patienter med GBS och EAN hos möss; 2) identifiera de molekylära signalvägar som medierar effekten av IL-23 på blod T-celler erhållna från patienter med GBS och EAN hos möss; 3) undersöka huruvida IL-23 påverkar samarbetet mellan olika typer av vita blodkroppar (dvs T och B-celler) och 4) undersöka huruvida behandling specifikt riktad mot IL23/IL17/Th17 signallering har en effekt på djurmodellen av GBS, dvs EAN hos möss. Dessa mänskliga och murina studier kommer att bidra till en bättre förståelse av IL-23 i utvecklingen av autoimmun inflammatorisk polyneuropati i allmänhet, och av GBS i synnerhet, vilket stödjer inrättandet av nya forskningsprogram band mellan Sverige och Pakistan.

Predictions say that we will face constant threat from variants of old as well as from completely new infectious agents. The society need to be prepared for these threats by investing in research that enables us to better understand the nature of the infectious agents that are around us. Coronaviruses are important pathogens within veterinary science causing disease in a number of different species such as bovine, feline, avian, pigs etc. But in the last decade we have also seen that these viruses have zoonotic potential, with the SARS outbreak in 2003, and recently with the novel coronavirus that emerged in 2012 causing up till now 7 number of human deaths out of 13 known cases. These viruses have a rapid evolution allowing them to adapt to novel hosts as well as evolve from non-pathogenic to pathogenic variants. Therefore, the purpose of this proposal is to use *next generation of sequencing technology* (NGS) and up-to-date bioinformatics tools to gain insights in the viral quasispecies composition and evolution of these most complex RNA viruses in different host situations. This knowledge is vital for better understanding the complex interaction between viruses and host leading to disease and may give us tools for prediction and prevention of this important group of viruses. Hur kan vi förbereda oss mot nuvarande och framtida hot mot virus? Globala smittsamma infektionssjukdomar är ett stort problem för välfärden och förutspås komma att fortsätta öka i betydelse även i framtiden. Detta beror på många faktorer såsom klimatförändringar, ökat resande, ökat naturresursutnyttjande etc. Detta innebär att vi kommer att möta helt nya infektionsagens (bakterier, virus, parasiter, svampar) med alla de utmaningar som detta innebär med avseende på detektion, behandling och så vidare. För merparten av dessa nya agens och dess sjukdomar kommer det inledningsvis antagligen inte finnas varken bra metoder för detektion eller behandling tillgängliga. Det är därför ur samhällssynvinkel viktigt att investera i forskning av infektionsagens för att öka vår förståelse för dess biologi för att på så sätt kunna förbereda oss för de utmaningar som detta ökade tryck av infektionsagens innebär. Speciellt antas nya virus uppkomma och/eller finna nya miljöer vilket kommer att utsätta vår och våra husdjurs hälsa för stora ansträngningar. Virus har förmågan att förändra sig enormt, anpassa sig till nya miljöer och värdar och det innebär att nya varianter, med nya egenskaper, ständigt bildas. Faktum är att virus smittar som *ett moln* av olika virus varianter, där det är deras samlade egenskaper som avgör om de leder till sjukdom eller ej. I dessa moln finns en, särskilt för RNA virus, enorm variation som hittills varit mycket svår och tidsödande att studera och därför känner vi inte till det exakta sambandet mellan sammansättningen av *virusmolnet* och utfallet av sjukdom eller ej.

I korthet går det ut på att man med hjälp av denna sekvenseringsteknologi och bioinformatik bestämmer alla virala genetiska varianter ur ett givet prov. Syftet med detta projekt är att med denna nya teknik studera en ur veterinär och humanmedicinen mycket viktig RNA virusfamilj, coronavirus. Vi kommer att studera hur några varianter ur denna virusfamilj fungerar med avseende på mutationsbenägenhet under utveckling av sjukdom.

The fungus was first noted by cashew growers in Mtwara; then in their cassava farms; later on they also found it causing destructive wilting in eucalyptus plantations. It may become epidemic within weeks, leading to complete crop loss especially during the later rains. Many families are about to abandon their cashew and cassava cultivations, which has caused an unsustainable decrease in their household income along with increases in food price. It is a serious threat to the establishment of a sustainable agroforestry in the area. Aims of this project: 1) to characterize and classify this previously unknown fungus, for which both molecular and morphological characters will be used. 2) establish its pathogenicity and suggesting mitigation measures to improve crop production and salvage the forest industry in the area. Tissue cultures in order to isolate the macro-fungus - germplasm will be used for in vitro pathogenicity test in susceptible plant cultivars. Both direct inoculation of the germplasm to damaged plant and inoculating the pathogen to the plant surface (undamaged) will be used to assess the transmission mechanism. The host range and knowledge about transmission will then provide a basis for validating intervention methods, which will be communicated to Agricultural Institutes centers for sensitization and adoption in the region. Cashew är den viktigaste kommersiella grödan i sydöstra Tanzania och den viktigaste inkomstkällan för över 320.000 hushåll. Nyligen har odlingarna drabbats av en drastisk produktionsnedgång. Sedan mer än tre år har odlarna i Tanzanias Södra regioner identifierat orsaken som en hittills oidentifierad parasitisk svamp, som dödar träden. I dessa delar av Tanzania hotas nu jordbruk, skogsbruk och även livsmedelsförsörjning av kollaps på grund av denna allvarliga parasit. Svampen observerades först av odlare i Mtwara och de fann även angrepp på kassava- och eukalyptusplanteringar. Denna parasit kan utvecklas till en epidemi på några veckor och leder till total skördeförlust. Många familjer håller nu på att överge sina planteringar, vilket inte bara leder till ekonomisk katastrof utan också till höjda livsmedelspriser. Svampen förekommer också på ett antal andra vilda och odlade träd och utgör således ett akut hot inte bara mot jord- och skogsbruk (särskilt den högt prioriterade s.k. ?agroforestry?), utan hotar tillika existensen för befolkningen genom att föröda både cashew och de viktigaste matgrödorna. Projektet syftar till 1) att vetenskapligt namnge och beskriva denna hittills okända svamp. 2) Utforska dess patogenicitet. 3) Kartlägga dess värdspecificitet och spridningsvägar. 4) Utveckla metoder för att kontrollera parasiten. 5) Sprida kunskap om de bästa bekämpningsmetoderna till jordbuksforskningsinstitut i området Begränsa skadeverkningar och förbättra produktionen av de angripna grödorna, i första hand cashew, och därigenom rädda skogsindustrin och ´agroforestry´ i området. Såväl morfologisk som molekylära metoder kommer att användas för att karaktärisera svampen. Den kommer att odlas i renkulturer, som kommer att användas för att testa patogenicitet och infektionskänslighet hos olika grödor. Värdspecificiteten kommer att undersökas i fält. Sammantaget kommer dessa studier att leda till beskrivning/identifiering av svampparasiten, fastläggandet av dess patogenicitet, värdspektrum och spridningsvägar; allt som en bas för utarbetandet av effektiva bekämpningsmetoder. Ur vetenskaplig synpunkt kommer här för första gången forskningsuppgifter om afrikanska svampar att formuleras i Afrika, snarare än av forskare från andra delar av världen. Forskningen kommer också att utnyttja och vidareutveckla afrikanska forskares kompetens, särskilt den yngre generationens. En mycket viktig strategisk aspekt är att kompetens i Tanzania, från ledande forskare i molekylärbiologi, taxonomi och svamppatologi involveras och säkerställer kontakt och informationsflöde hela vägen till den individuelle odlaren. Odlarna måste förses med välfungerande och enkla kommunikationsvägar till forskarna och de vetenskapliga centra och vice versa.

The fungus was first noted by cashew growers in Mtwara; then in their cassava farms; later on they also found it causing destructive wilting in eucalyptus plantations. It may become epidemic within weeks, leading to complete crop loss especially during the later rains. Many families are about to abandon their cashew and cassava cultivations, which has caused an unsustainable decrease in their household income along with increases in food price. It is a serious threat to the establishment of a sustainable agroforestry in the area. Aims of this project: 1) to characterize and classify this previously unknown fungus, for which both molecular and morphological characters will be used. 2) establish its pathogenicity and suggesting mitigation measures to improve crop production and salvage the forest industry in the area. Tissue cultures in order to isolate the macro-fungus - germplasm will be used for in vitro pathogenicity test in susceptible plant cultivars. Both direct inoculation of the germplasm to damaged plant and inoculating the pathogen to the plant surface (undamaged) will be used to assess the transmission mechanism. The host range and knowledge about transmission will then provide a basis for validating intervention methods, which will be communicated to Agricultural Institutes centers for sensitization and adoption in the region. Cashew är den viktigaste kommersiella grödan i sydöstra Tanzania och den viktigaste inkomstkällan för över 320.000 hushåll. Nyligen har odlingarna drabbats av en drastisk produktionsnedgång. Sedan mer än tre år har odlarna i Tanzanias Södra regioner identifierat orsaken som en hittills oidentifierad parasitisk svamp, som dödar träden. I dessa delar av Tanzania hotas nu jordbruk, skogsbruk och även livsmedelsförsörjning av kollaps på grund av denna allvarliga parasit. Svampen observerades först av odlare i Mtwara och de fann även angrepp på kassava- och eukalyptusplanteringar. Denna parasit kan utvecklas till en epidemi på några veckor och leder till total skördeförlust. Många familjer håller nu på att överge sina planteringar, vilket inte bara leder till ekonomisk katastrof utan också till höjda livsmedelspriser. Svampen förekommer också på ett antal andra vilda och odlade träd och utgör således ett akut hot inte bara mot jord- och skogsbruk (särskilt den högt prioriterade s.k. ?agroforestry?), utan hotar tillika existensen för befolkningen genom att föröda både cashew och de viktigaste matgrödorna. Projektet syftar till 1) att vetenskapligt namnge och beskriva denna hittills okända svamp. 2) Utforska dess patogenicitet. 3) Kartlägga dess värdspecificitet och spridningsvägar. 4) Utveckla metoder för att kontrollera parasiten. 5) Sprida kunskap om de bästa bekämpningsmetoderna till jordbuksforskningsinstitut i området Begränsa skadeverkningar och förbättra produktionen av de angripna grödorna, i första hand cashew, och därigenom rädda skogsindustrin och ´agroforestry´ i området. Såväl morfologisk som molekylära metoder kommer att användas för att karaktärisera svampen. Den kommer att odlas i renkulturer, som kommer att användas för att testa patogenicitet och infektionskänslighet hos olika grödor. Värdspecificiteten kommer att undersökas i fält. Sammantaget kommer dessa studier att leda till beskrivning/identifiering av svampparasiten, fastläggandet av dess patogenicitet, värdspektrum och spridningsvägar; allt som en bas för utarbetandet av effektiva bekämpningsmetoder. Ur vetenskaplig synpunkt kommer här för första gången forskningsuppgifter om afrikanska svampar att formuleras i Afrika, snarare än av forskare från andra delar av världen. Forskningen kommer också att utnyttja och vidareutveckla afrikanska forskares kompetens, särskilt den yngre generationens. En mycket viktig strategisk aspekt är att kompetens i Tanzania, från ledande forskare i molekylärbiologi, taxonomi och svamppatologi involveras och säkerställer kontakt och informationsflöde hela vägen till den individuelle odlaren. Odlarna måste förses med välfungerande och enkla kommunikationsvägar till forskarna och de vetenskapliga centra och vice versa.

Most of these applications use anaerobes that are adapted to grow in non-extreme environments, with the exception of acidophiles - anaerobes that are adapted to grow at acidic pH. This project aims to isolate anaerobes from other neglected extreme environments using techniques such as microdroplet. One of the major obstacle in isolation of anaerobes using the traditional agar palate isolation technique is that they are slow growers. Few anaerobes that relatively grow faster than others suppress the growth of other anaerobes making the isolation of the very slow grower anaerobes almost impossible. Moreover, agar plates can dry when incubated for long time. On the other hand, the microdroplets immobilize cells separately which can be packed in column reactor which allows continuous feeding. In this case each cell will grow independent of the other cell and then beads will sorted out. Anaerobes isolated in this way will be studied if they produce platform chemicals from renewable resources. Moreover, isolates will be screened fro production of novel enzymes that can be of interest for biorefinery application.

Detta project iniktas på att isolera nya organismer, studera dessas egenskaper och när intressanta bakterier identifierats utnyttja den för fortsatta studier. En del av de anaeroba bakterierna växer långsamt och har svårt att klara sig I konkurrensen när man gör isoleringsförsök. Man kan jämföra med situationen I en grupp personer som sitter och diskuterar. Några är dominanta medan andra är ganska tysta och inte kommer till tals. Man får lyssna på dem en och en, då inser man att även tysta individer har mycket att erbjuda. För bakterierna under isoleringssituationen kommer de snabbväxande att ta över och inte ge långsamväxande en chans.

Notably, there is a profound increase in prevalence of T2D amongst urban black South Africans (SA), particularly women. We hypothesize that lifestyle factors influence metabolic pathways, thereby increasing the risk for T2D. In the caregivers of the Birth to Twenty (Bt20) cohort women (n=1,251), from the urban township of Soweto in Johannesburg, SA, underwent extensive testing (body composition, socioeconomic status, fasting blood samples) in 2003 and 2013/4. Based on analyses of fasting glucose collected in 2013/4, we will classify women as having normal glucose tolerance (NGT), impaired fasting glucose (IFG) or T2D. Eighty women per group (n=240) will undergo an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) to confirm their diabetic status. Longitudinal metabolomics analyses will be performed on fasting plasma samples from 2003 and 2015, and their 30 and 120 min OGTT blood samples from 2015. We aim to i) identify metabolites and metabolic pathways that predict progression from NGT to IGT and T2D, ii) identify metabolites and metabolic pathways associated with insulin sensitivity and secretion in black SA women and iii) determine whether lifestyle factors can modify these findings. I dag har fler än 370 miljoner människor diabetes och de kommande åren beräknas denna siffra öka kraftigt där merparten av ökningen utgörs av typ 2 diabetes (T2D). Diabetes medför en kraftigt ökad risk för följdsjukdomar, inte minst hjärtkärlsjukdom. Detta innebär nedsättningar i livskvalitet för de drabbade och stora samhällskostnader, direkta och indirekta. Det som får fler att insjukna i T2D, enligt den Internationella Diabetesfederationen, är främst livsstilsförändringar och då specifikt en ökning av fett- och sockerrik kost i kombination med låg fysisk aktivitet. Den största och snabbaste ökningen av T2D sker i låg- och medel-inkomstländer, i regioner som Afrika, Asien och Stillahavsområdet. En förklaring till detta fenomen ligger i de livsstilsförändringear som äger rum bland folkgrupper som lämnar en traditionell livsstil i samband med flytt från landsbygd till stad. I Afrika är T2D mer förekommande hos den svarta befolkningen än hos den vita. Ökningen av T2D är särskilt påtaglig bland kvinnor. Vi vet också, från studier i USA och Sydafrika, att traditionella riskfaktorer för T2D skiljer sig åt mellan vita och svarta. Det är därför av stor vikt att hitta faktorer som kan förutspå risk för T2D hos svarta sydafrikanska kvinnor. Vår hypotes är att de nämnda livsstilsfaktorerna påverkar olika metabola vägar och därmed ökar risken för förstadium till och fullt utvecklad T2D. Vi har en unik möjlighet att analysera denna hypotes i den största longitudinella studien i Afrika, the Birth to 20 chohort, som startades 1990 och inkluderar 1,251 Sydafrikanska kvinnor från ett urbant område i Soweto, Johannesburg. Sedan 2003 har noggranna tester kontinuerligt utförts i denna kohort (kroppssammansättning, socialt status, fastande blodprov). Vi kommer att välja ut 240 kvinnor som i dagsläget är uppdelat utifrån insulinkänslighetsnivåer; normal, störd sockeromsättning och T2D. Kvinnorna kommer att genomgå ett glukosbelastningstest för att fastställa insulinkänslighet inklusive eventuell förekomst av diabetes Detaljerade mätningar görs av kroppssammansättning, fysisk aktivitet, kost och andra relevanta kliniska mätningar. Fastande blodprov från 2003 och 2015 samt prover i samband med glukosbelastning kommer att analyseras. Vi avser att mäta tusentals små molekyler i blodet, s k metabolomik, som sammantaget ger en god reflektion av metabolismen, och utvärdera samband mellan dessa molekyler och livsstilsfaktorer. Målet är att identifiera faktorer och processer som visar på risk för utveckling av störd sockeromsättning och T2D. Vi hoppas med detta arbete möjliggöra förebyggande åtgärder innan uppkomst av sjukdom, såväl i denna population som globalt. En tidig upptäckt är nyckel till att kunna arbeta förebyggande och på sikt minska lidande och sjukvårdskostnader i denna resurssvaga grupp. Ohälsa och faktorer som leder till för tidig död i större utsträckning hos fattiga människor är ett hot mot en rättvis globalt hållbar utveckling. Detta är ett uttalat prioriterat område inom den svenska utvecklingspolitiken. Detta projekt möjliggör för forskare att undersöka, till T2D relevanta, livsstilsfaktorer och därtill associerade metabola rubbningar i en underpriviligerad folkgrupp med hög förekomst av T2D. Mer än hälften av kvinnorna i denna studie saknar toalett och rinnande vatten i sin bostad och 44 % har ingen gymnasial utbildning. Projektet är ett internationellt samarbete mellan forskare vid Umeå Universitet i Sverige och forskare vid University of Witwatersrand i Sydafrika. Detta samarbete möjliggör ett värdefullt utbyte av expertis rörande sjukdomsmekanismer vid T2D. Sverige har i och med projektet möjlighet att bidra, tillsammans med lokala inom området världsledande forskare, till att bygga upp forskningskapaciteten i Sydafrika kring T2D.

En tidig upptäckt är nyckel till att kunna arbeta förebyggande och på sikt minska lidande och sjukvårdskostnader i denna resurssvaga grupp. Ohälsa och faktorer som leder till för tidig död i större utsträckning hos fattiga människor är ett hot mot en rättvis globalt hållbar utveckling. Detta är ett uttalat prioriterat område inom den svenska utvecklingspolitiken. Detta projekt möjliggör för forskare att undersöka, till T2D relevanta, livsstilsfaktorer och därtill associerade metabola rubbningar i en underpriviligerad folkgrupp med hög förekomst av T2D. Mer än hälften av kvinnorna i denna studie saknar toalett och rinnande vatten i sin bostad och 44 % har ingen gymnasial utbildning. Projektet är ett internationellt samarbete mellan forskare vid Umeå Universitet i Sverige och forskare vid University of Witwatersrand i Sydafrika. Detta samarbete möjliggör ett värdefullt utbyte av expertis rörande sjukdomsmekanismer vid T2D. Sverige har i och med projektet möjlighet att bidra, tillsammans med lokala inom området världsledande forskare, till att bygga upp forskningskapaciteten i Sydafrika kring T2D.

Recently we have seen how crowded refugee camps, flooding and earth quakes may result in rapid spreading of diarrhoea and other water borne infectious diseases. Hence we need to understand how water borne diarrhoeal pathogens can emerge and spread so rapidly. The aim of this project is to understand how pathogenic bacteria survive in water and how water transmission affects virulence and acquired antibiotic resistance. The hypothesis is that bacteria in water transiently actively regulate genes that aid in infection of new hosts but that long term water incubation select for antibiotic resistant dormant bacteria that still may be infectious. Determination of the transcriptome in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) in water by Illumina RNA-seq analyses revealed active gene regulation and indicated adaptation towards antibiotic resistant so called persister cells We aim to verify essential genes required for survival by advanced sequencing methods as well as determine if water is a inducer for uptake of naturally occurring antibiotic resistance genes as well as increased infecitvity. The project is a collaboration with Bangladesh and Bolivia and includes local capacity building by PhD training of Bolivian students. The aim is to identify means to predict and prevent epidemic outbreaks of gastrointestinal infections transmitted via water. Hur överlever och sprids vattenburna sjukdomsframkallande bakterier i flodvatten i Bolivia? Kontaminerat dricksvatten är en vanlig källa till infektion i utvecklingsländer och framförallt många diarrépatogener anses vara vattenburna Vi har tidigare visar att den diarreframkallande bakterien enterotoxigen Escherichia coli (ETEC) finns i dricksvatten och överlever i vatten i flera månader med intakt cellmembran och med en aktiv transkription av vissa gener. Våra resultat indikerar att diarreframkallande bakterier kan ligga tysta i vattenkällor under mycket lång tid och att de sedan kan orsaka sjukdom hos människor som dricker vattnet. Men hur bakterierna kan överleva i näringsfattigt dricksvatten under så lång tid är ännu inte utrett. För att undersöka detta har vi i ett tidigare projekt studerat alla gener som uttrycks hos ETEC när den befinner sig i vatten. Vi fann att ETEC snabbt anpassar sig till vattenmiljön genom att direkt upp och nedreglera olika gener. Därefter fann vi att ETEC efter ca 2 timmar i vatten kraftigt uppreglerar en grupp av gener som vi tror kan göra bakterien ännu mer motståndskraftig mot vattenmiljön samt även virulent. Ytterligare en grupp gener uppreglerades successivt efter dagar och månader i vatten. Dessa gener gör att bakterierna låser sig i ett inaktivt läge och överlever i vatten med minimal metabolism. Vi avser nu vidareutveckla hypotesen att spridning av vattenburna bakterier kräver en aktiv genreglering och vi avser att verifiera detta med ett transposon-mutantbibliotek för att bestämma de gener som är essentiella för överlevnad i vatten. I ett samarbete med forskare i Bolivia och Bangladesh kommer vi att bestämma om dessa essentiella gener även uttrycks i patogena E. coli som förekommer i kontaminerat flodvatten. Slutligen kommer vi att studera om spridning i vatten påverkar patogena bakteriers resistens mot antibiotika samt även om upptag av naturligt förekommande resistensgener ökar i vatten, vi kommer specifikt att studera vattendrag i närheten av gruvor och jämföra med flodvatten nära La Paz i Bolivia. Vår hypotes är att förekomsten av metalljoner i vatten driver resistensupptag av både metallresistens och antibiotikaresisten eftersom de ofta sitter på samma plasmider. Syftet med studien är att förstå vilka gener som diarréframkallande patogener reglerar för att kunna överleva i vatten under lång tid och hur de kan behålla sin infektionsförmåga. Vi kommer även att studera de mekanismer för upptag av antibiotika och metall-resistens som kan förekomma i naturliga vatten. Projektet är ett aktivt samarbete mellan forskare i främst Bolivia men även Bangladesh, båda länder som drabbas hårt av vattenburen infektionssmitta. Projektet kommer att stärka forskningen vid Universidad Mayor San Andres i La Paz genom metodöverföring samt doktorandutbildning som sker inom ramen för ett större Sida-finansierat anslag. Resultaten kommer att ge generell kunskap om vattenburen bakteriell smitta som kan användas för att hindra spridning och förvärvad antibiotikaresistens hos vattenburna patogener.

This randomized clinical trial will evaluate the benefit of glucose administration already ay blood glucose levels <5.0mmol/l in children presenting to a Ugandan hospital with an acute febrile illness. It will further explain the metabolic response, through the measurement of metabolic markers, in pediatric acute infections and how this influences the final outcome in children with hypo-, normo- and hyperglycemia. Our results will highlight the potential need to revise current hypoglycemia cut off values in order to increase child survival in acute infections. Den globala barnadödligheten har minskat under senaste åren, men fortfarande dör varje år sju miljoner barn under fem år, de flesta av dem av behandlingsbara infektionssjukdomar som lunginflammation, diarré och malaria. Majoriteten dödsfall sker i Afrika söder om Sahara. Basen i omhändertagandet av barn med akut febersjukdom är behandling med antibiotika och antimalarialäkemedel. Terapi som syftar till att understödja basala vitalfunktioner har däremot fått mindre fokus och är många gånger påtagligt eftersatt. Lågt blodsocker är förenat med sämre prognos vid en akut infektion men symptomen är ofta diffusa och därmed svåra att diagnostisera. Man vet att dödligheten är hög hos barn med blodsockernivåer under det av världshälsoorganisationen definierade gränsvärdet. Det finns nu ett antal studier som också pekar på en ökad dödlighet bland barn med blodsockervärden som i nuläget räknas som inom det normala referensintervallet. Vi ifrågasätter i denna studie den etablerade gränsen för lågt blodsocker. Vi vill samtidigt hitta förklaringar till varför en del barn har lågt eller lågt normalt blodsocker när de läggs in på sjukhus med en infektionssjukdom. Det normala fysiologiska svaret på en infektion är att kroppen släpper ut stresshormonet kortisol som verkar genom att höja blodsockret. Orsakerna till att detta inte alltid fungerar, och att en del barn istället uppvisar en blodsockernivå som är lägre än det normala, är inte kända. Kanske beror det på att barn i resursfattiga länder söker sent i sjukdomsförloppet och därmed inte längre ?orkar? producera stresshormon, eller så beror det på att det läggs föga fokus på energitillförsel hos sjuka barn. Det kan också vara så att barns kroppar reagerar på infektioner på ett annorlunda sätt än vuxna, något som en del studier från höginkomstländer redan indikerat. Vi kommer att studera 8000 barn mellan två månader och 13 års ålder som läggs in på sjukhus med en akut infektion på ett sjukhus i Mbarara i södra Uganda. Blodsockervärdet kommer att mätas vid ankomsten. Hälften av barnen kommer att få extra sockerlösning vid inläggningen redan om deras blodsocker är måttligt sänkt, medan hälften kommer att behandlas enligt rådande riktlinjer, alltså ges sockerlösning vid en lägre blodsockernivå. Sockertillförsel och blodsockermätning kommer att fortgår över behandlingstiden och som mest intensivt under första dygnet. För de tusen första patienterna i studien kommer vi att ta ytterligare prover vid ankomsten till sjukhuset för att få bättre förståelse för orsaker till olika blodsockernivåer i akuta infektioner. Vi kommer att ta blodprov för stresshormonet kortisol och hormonet insulin, som hjälper till att minska höga nivåer av socker i blodet. Vi kommer också att mäta socker och en viss typ av syror, som ökar när man svälter och ibland också vid infektion. Sen kommer vi att följa sjukdomens utveckling under tiden på sjukhuset. Vi kommer att intervjua barnens vårdnadshavare för att få information om hur barnen ätit och druckit under sjukdomen samt hur länge de varit sjuka. Vi kan sedan jämföra hur olika nivåer av hormon, syror och socker påverkar barnens tillfrisknande. Informationen från föräldrarna bidrar till att ge en tidsuppfattning till sjukdomen, om barnet varit sjukt länge eller inte, och om det har fått i sig näring och energi under sjukdomstiden.

We here suggest that rosetting enhances the invasion of the parasite into attached- rosetting- erythrocytes since we have found associations between the multiplication rate of the parasites, rosetting and peripheral parasitemia of Ugandan malaria patients. We were however not able to prove this at the molecular level with in vitro propagated strains using antibodies to the identified ligands. As a consequence we suggest to explore freshly isolated parasites (including merozoites) in detail, identify the red blood receptors used, ligands as well as serum proteins employed by the parasite at the level of the merozoite as well as the iRBC. Aims Aim 1. Isolate parasites of patients with different invasion characteristics Aim 2. Determine involved parasite ligands and receptors Aim 3. Understand merozoite invasion as a function of rosetting The purpose of the suggested work is to explore in what way Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte rosetting enhances parasite invasion to initiate severe malaria.

Parasitytan består av ett fåtal äggviteämnen som utbytes i en kapplöpning med immunsystemet. Det möjliggör för parasiten att överleva mitt i blodomloppet och spridas vidare till andra individer med hjälp av myggor.

Vi skall undersöka hur allmängiltigt detta fynd är genom att analysera en lång rad nya parasiter från olika kontinenter för dessas kapacitet att dela sig och invadera nya röda blodkroppar och undersöka om denna kapacitet är korrelererad till förmågan att binda till sig oinfekterade rödablodkroppar.

Remarkably, an estimated 80-90% of the adults in low and middle income countries are infected with H. pylori. An estimated 10-15% of the infected individuals will develop peptic ulcer disease and 1-2% gastric cancer. Antibiotic treatment can cure peptic ulcer disease but reinfection is common. From a public health perspective, a vaccine against H. pylori will reduce the consumption of antibiotics, the incidence of associated symptoms and rate of reinfections. The main target group for such a vaccine would be adults in low and middle income countries where H. pylori infection is endemic. Our group at the University of Gothenburg (UG) has been working for the last 20 years on the development of a mucosally delivered vaccine against H. pylori infection. Based on the results from our pre-clinical studies, a vaccine candidate will be chosen to advance to Phase I clinical trials in H. pylori infected adults and later in children in close collaboration with an industrial partner. The vaccine will be scaled up for production under GMP conditions. Pre-vaccine specific immune responses in H. pylori infected individuals in India will be studied and a Phase I trial will be carried out in India. Considering the previous experience at UG in developing mucosal vaccines, we are optimistic that we could develop an effective and low-cost H. pylori vaccine under the framework of this application. Man räknar med att mer än hälften av världens befolkning, alltså ca 2,5 miljarder, är infekterade med bakterien Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) i magen varav 80-90% lever i låg- och medel inkomstländer. Av de infekterade personerna utvecklar alla inflammation i magslemhinnan (gastrit), 10-15% utvecklar magsår och 1-2% magcancer. Magcancer är idag den näst vanligaste cancerformen i världen. Detta gör att H. pylori-infektion är ett globalt hälsoproblem, framförallt i fattigare delar av världen. I dagsläget finns inget effektivt sätt att behandla eller förhindra sjukdomarna. Det enda sättet är att behandla med antibiotika. Detta är dock inte effektivt och dessutom är det vanligt att man blir infekterad igen efter behandling. Antibiotikabehandling har dessutom gett upphov till antibiotikaresistenta bakterier, även detta gör att behandlingen ofta inte fungerar särskilt bra. Behovet av ett vaccin är därför stort för att skydda befolkningen i låg- och medelinkomstländer mot H. pylori-infektion, och på lång sikt magsår och magcancer. Syftet med projekt är att ta fram ett vaccin som ska ge ett bra skydd mot H. pylori-infektion, magsår och magcancer. Vaccinet riktar sig till H. pylori-infekterade individer i låg- och medelinkomstländer som har en hög risk att utveckla magsår eller som har magcancer inom familjen (terapeutiskt vaccin) samt till barn och resenärer som inte är infekterade (profylaktiskt vaccin). Målet är att framställa vaccin kostnadseffektivt i stora volymer. Vi vill även testa hur vårt vaccin kan bidra till ett snabbare och starkare immunförsvar hos människor. Vi ska börja med en dostitreringsstudie och när vi funnit en optimal vaccindos ska vi studera immunsvaret mot H. pylori i ett större antal patienter med magsår eller tidiga tecken på magcancer. Efter 15 års arbete med en väletablerad musmodell av H. pylori-infektion ska vi nu välja ett av två lovande vacciner för de fortsatta studierna i människa. De två vaccinerna består av (i) avdödade bakterier med en immunförstärkande substans (ii) bakterieproteiner tillsammans med samma immunförstärkande substans som ovan. I musstudier har vi visat att båda vaccinerna effektivt kan minska antalet H. pylori-bakterier i magen. Vi ska nu utföra ytterligare studier i möss och det vaccin som fungerar bäst ska i nästa steg produceras i stor volym under mycket kontrollerade förhållanden för att sedan kunna testas på människor. Tack vare våra lovande resultat på möss har vi fått förfrågan om ett samarbete med ett företag i Indien (Cadila). Företaget vill hjälpa oss att utveckla vårt vaccin så att det kan testas på människor. Vi som arbetar med framtagningen av H. pylori vaccinet vid Göteborgs universitet har stor erfarenhet av vaccinutveckling, bl.a. har vi utvecklat vacciner mot andra mag/tarm infektioner som kolera och E. coli-diarré. Vi är därför optimistiska till att vaccinet mot H. pylori-infektion effektivt kan förebygga återkommande H. pylori-infektioner, magsår och magcancer. Vi hoppas att vaccinet inte bara ska rädda liv genom att förebygga magcancer utan också förbättra livskvaliteten genom att förebygga magsår för både resenärer och människor i låg- och medelinkomstländer.

Remarkably, an estimated 80-90% of the adults in low and middle income countries are infected with H. pylori. An estimated 10-15% of the infected individuals will develop peptic ulcer disease and 1-2% gastric cancer. Antibiotic treatment can cure peptic ulcer disease but reinfection is common. From a public health perspective, a vaccine against H. pylori will reduce the consumption of antibiotics, the incidence of associated symptoms and rate of reinfections. The main target group for such a vaccine would be adults in low and middle income countries where H. pylori infection is endemic. Our group at the University of Gothenburg (UG) has been working for the last 20 years on the development of a mucosally delivered vaccine against H. pylori infection. Based on the results from our pre-clinical studies, a vaccine candidate will be chosen to advance to Phase I clinical trials in H. pylori infected adults and later in children in close collaboration with an industrial partner. The vaccine will be scaled up for production under GMP conditions. Pre-vaccine specific immune responses in H. pylori infected individuals in India will be studied and a Phase I trial will be carried out in India. Considering the previous experience at UG in developing mucosal vaccines, we are optimistic that we could develop an effective and low-cost H. pylori vaccine under the framework of this application. Man räknar med att mer än hälften av världens befolkning, alltså ca 2,5 miljarder, är infekterade med bakterien Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) i magen varav 80-90% lever i låg- och medel inkomstländer. Av de infekterade personerna utvecklar alla inflammation i magslemhinnan (gastrit), 10-15% utvecklar magsår och 1-2% magcancer. Magcancer är idag den näst vanligaste cancerformen i världen. Detta gör att H. pylori-infektion är ett globalt hälsoproblem, framförallt i fattigare delar av världen. I dagsläget finns inget effektivt sätt att behandla eller förhindra sjukdomarna. Det enda sättet är att behandla med antibiotika. Detta är dock inte effektivt och dessutom är det vanligt att man blir infekterad igen efter behandling.

The pfmdr1 N86Y mutation will be used as the reference (86N allele: resistance to AL; 86Y allele: resistance to ASAQ). In one arm the infection is genotyped. If 86Y, it is treated with AL, if 86N, with ASAQ. In another arm AL and ASAQ are used randomly without support information, in accordance to the national guidelines for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria. An increased in efficacy, as well as decreased selection of resistance associated alleles is expected at arm1. 3- Finally, the output of the trial will be re-analysed with reference methods (PCR-RFLP, direct PCR amplicon sequencing) for the post-hoc evaluation of the specificity and sensitivity of the device in the field conditions Minst en miljon människor, nästan alla små barn, dör varje år av malaria. Et litet antal kombinationsterapier, kollektivt kallade ACT (artemisinin combination therapy), utgör det centrala vapnet mot sjukdomen. Den mest använda ACT behandlingen i Afrika är Artemether-Lumefantrine (AL), som lanserades mycket framgångrikt för mindre än tio år sedan. Även om behandlingen fortfarande är effektiv, är det tydligt att malariaparasiten nu hittar vägar att undkomma behandlingens verkningar - resistens börjar uppkomma. Ny forskning har visat att en mutation i en gen men namnet pfmdr1 (P. falciparum multidrug resistance 1) påverkar behandlingseffekten av AL. Genen kodar för en transportör, ett protein som transporterar läkemedel i parasiten. Mutationen sker i aminosyreposition 86, vilken gör att aminosyran förändras från tyrosin (Y) till aspargin (N). Med N mutationen blir parasiten mindre känslig för AL. I det här projektet vill vi utveckla och utvärdera en ny teknik ? en liten analysapparat som snabbt kan analysera den infekterande parasitens genetiska karakteristika innan behandling sätts in. Apparaten bryter snabbt ner blodcellerna, extraherar DNAt och amplifierar en liten del av det DNA som kodar för position 86. De resulterande DNA bitarna skickas genom ett system av nanotrådar som emitterar olika ström styrkor när det interagerar med DNA kodande för N respektive Y. Hela proceduren tar 20 minuter. Apparaten är tänkt att kosta ca 300 ? och varje analys 1?, lika mycket som en ACT behandling. Analysen kommer att ge information till sjukvårdspersonalen om huruvida parasiterna som infekterat patienten är av N eller Y typ. Förutom kunskap om parasitens känslighet för AL, är analysen viktig i ytterligare ett avseende. Parasiter med genvarianten som kodar för N är mer känslig för en annan viktig ACT, Artesunat-Amodiaquin (ASAQ). Kunskapen om vilken aminosyra som finns i position 86 medför således att behandlingen kan väljas utifrån vilken behandling som förutses ha bäst effekt mot den infekterande parasiten. Parasiten har ingen utväg: den behandlas med AL om det är en 86Y parasit, ASAQ om parasiten har 86N. Projektet har tre faser: 1) Först ska apparaten optimeras i laboratoriet så att den har maximal prestanda avseende känslighet (för att kunna analysera även små populationer av cirkulerande parasiter)och specificitet (särskiljandet av genotyper utan tveksamheter). Det här kommer att göras med blandningar av parasiter som odlas i laboratoriet, samt med prover från kliniska studier. 2) En klinisk studie kommer att utföras. I studien kommer en del av patienterna att behandlas som vanligt, dvs AL kommer att ges utan kunskap om parasitens genuppsättning. Den andra delen av patienterna kommer att få behandling på basis av den infekterande parasitens genuppsättning: ASAQ om 86N hittas, AL om parasiten är av 86Y typ. Armarnas kliniska effekter kommer att jämföras. I den genetiskt styrda behandlings armen förväntas bättre behandlingseffekt. 3) Slutligen, i den sista fasen undersöks resistenta parasiter på jakten efter mutationer som kan ge ytterligare viktig information om parasitens resistens. Apparaten kan då utvecklas för analys av också dessa mutationer. De resistenta parasiterna kommer här från den kliniska studien dvs. från blod av patienterna med terapisvikt. Detta kommer att bli första gången individuell behandling ?personalised medicine? kommer att appliceras för malaria. Möjligheten att i framtiden optimera malariabehandlingen öppnar dörren för säkrare och mer effektivbehandling. Det kommer också att möjliggöra överföringen av 50 års forskning om resistensutveckling till praktisk klinisk användning för att bekämpa den dödliga malariaparasiten, Plasmodium falciparum:s resistens utveckling.

The aim of the proposed project is to increase farming outcome by replacing the present ecologically unsustain use of non-indigenous Asian strains of the economically important Eucheuma and Kappaphycus, with vigorous native ones. By mapping wild seaweed populations, their performance and adaptive capacity to climate change, strains suitable for commercial cultivation will be identified and tested.

The results will improve the sustainability of seaweed farming and thereby secure its ability for providing continuous poverty reduction in East Africa. Kan inhemska alger rädda Östafrikas algodlingar? I ljuset av ny forskning står den hitintills framgångsrika Östafrikanska odlingen av marina makroalger inför stora utmaningar. Framgångssagan hur kvinnor i fattiga kustbyar på Zanzibar kan tjäna egna pengar och förbättra livssituationen för sin familj och bli ekonomiskt mer oberoende fortgår och sprider sig till kusterna i omkringliggande länder. Samtidigt försämrar klimatförändringarna algernas produktivitet och kvalitet. De odlade algerna som ursprungligen kommer från Asien sprider sig även till områden utanför odlingarna där de har blivit vanliga och har negativ påverkan på den inhemska algfloran. Detta projekt syftar till att förbättra den Östafrikanska algodlingens potential till att även i fortsättningen vara högproduktiv och bidra till fattigdomsbekämpning, men även till att minimera dess ekologiska påverkan. Algodling hör framtiden till. Utan att konkurrera om vare sig färskvatten, den odlingsbara jorden eller andra icke förnyelsebara resurser kan alger förse oss med stora kvantiteter föda, foder och i framtiden kanske även biobränsle. På Zanzibar och längs den Östafrikanska kusten utgör odling av alger redan idag en viktig inkomstkälla. Ofta för dem utan andra resurser och möjligheter; de fattigaste, oftast kvinnor. Inkomsterna från algodlingen har gjort kvinnorna mer ekonomiskt oberoende och förbättrat deras familjers livssituation. Algodling har tack vare detta spridit sig, och från att ha införts från Sydostasien till Zanzibar 1989 förekommer odlingar idag på många håll längs hela Östafrikas kust. Förhoppningen är att odlandet skall fortsätta expandera, men algodlingen står idag inför stora utmaningar. Problem med produktiviteten har under senare tid inneburit minskade skördar och inkomster. Orsaken till problemet är klimatförändringar med förhöjda vattentemperaturer som gör att algerna växer sämre och eventuellt även gör dem mer mottagliga för sjukdomar. Algerna som odlas kommer ursprungligen från Asien och det finns farhågor att de odlade algernas oförmåga att anpassa sig till förändringarna beror att deras genetiska diversitet är för liten. En tidigare studie har också visat att de odlade algerna har spridit sig till områden utanför odlingarna. Där kan de utgöra ett potentiellt hot mot ekosystemet. På andra håll i världen har främmande odlade alger invaderat korallrev, med stora konsekvenser för revens struktur och funktion. Studien kommer att kartlägga förekomsten av vilda, inhemska varianter av de kommersiellt odlade rödalgerna Euchuema och Kappaphycus och undersöka om någon eller några har de kvaliteter som krävs för att vara odlingsbara. Detta kommer att testas i en rad försök där algernas tillväxt och kvalitet jämförs då de odlas under olika miljöförhållanden, t ex under höga temperaturer. Projektet kommer även att få ökad kunskap om hur de odlade varianterna spridit sig och hur de konkurrerar med de inhemska algerna samt hur de påverkar ekosystemens funktion mer generellt. P g a spridningsrisken och dess negativa följder bör ytterligare introduktion av asiatiska varianter för att vitalisera de afrikanska odlingarna om möjligt undvikas. Projektets mål att hitta inhemska varianter och arter som går att odla kommersiellt är därför av avgörande betydelse för att upprätthålla och utveckla den Östafrikanska algodlingen.

In a novel breakthrough toward the creation of a mass trapping system for malaria vectors, we identified several synthetic odour blends that attract gravid mosquitoes. Our current objectives are to use this knowledge to develop a ?super-blend? to attract gravid malaria mosquitoes under field conditions, and to optimise the positioning of gravid traps within the landscape. The overall aim is to demonstrate that gravid traps can reduce malaria prevalence under epidemiologically relevant conditions. The ?super blend? will be created in large-tent assays, then optimised binary choice assays inside a large semi-field enclosure at icipe?s field station in Kenya. Field evaluation of the ?super blend? will then be conducted as a multi choice assay at two sites in Kenya and at one site in Ethiopia, in collaboration with icipe and Addis Ababa University, respectively. To establish the importance of landscape features in the selection of oviposition sites, we will conduct a longitudinal survey of mosquito breeding sites and the surrounding environment. Finally, we aim to reduce malaria prevalence in a western Ethiopian village by augmenting existing IVM interventions with our odour-baited gravid traps. Entomological and parasitological data will be monitored before and during interventions to assess the effect. Malariamyggor älskar doften av gräs ? så kan vi använda den emot dem Insektsgifter och mediciner mot mygg och de sjukdomar de sprider är grundpelarna till de program som syftar mot att bekämpa malaria i världen.

Nya metoder behöver utvecklas som ett komplement till befintliga. Vi har utvecklat syntetiska dofter, baserat på dofterna av olika typer av gräs, som attraherar äggläggande malariamyggor.

I detta projekt planerar vi ta fram en ?superblandning?, baserad på de syntetiska dofter vi har tillgängliga, för att utveckla en massfångstmetod för malariamyggor. Genom att locka äggläggande malariamyggor i tillräckligt stort antal kan vi minska myggpopulationen och deras bitfrekvens och därmed reducera spridningen av malaria. I samarbete med icipe (Kenya) ska vi optimera denna ?superblandning? i stora semi-fältförsök. Därefter ska vi analysera hur effektiv denna blandning attraherar malariamyggor under epidemiologiska förhållanden. Dessa försök kommer att utföras på två platser i Kenya i samarbete med icipe och en plats i Etiopien i samarbete med Addis Ababa University. I Etiopien kommer vi även att utföra en landskapsanalys för att bättre förstå hur malariamyggor förflyttar sig och gör sina val vad gäller äggläggningsplats. Målet med projektet är att försöka reducera antalet malariafall i en by i västra Etiopien, ett område där vi tidigare utfört entomologiska och parasitologiska analyser, genom att komplettera befintliga bekämpningsmetoder med fällor för äggläggande malariamyggor.

In a novel breakthrough toward the creation of a mass trapping system for malaria vectors, we identified several synthetic odour blends that attract gravid mosquitoes.

Changes in the climate are already present, at the same time as the region is experiencing land use changes and water exploitation at an unprecedented scale. To improve our understanding of the basins and the potential impacts due to environmental and societal change we will conduct large scale hydrological modelling for present climate and future scenarios. Experiments will be performed using different hydrological models covering large domains and many observation sites representing different environmental conditions. This makes it possible to carefully assess the models? accuracy and reliability. We will develop holistic and robust adaptation strategies, based on model results as well as in-depth end-user dialogs, to drive planning for proper and efficient water resources management for food security and poverty alleviation. We will also investigate ways of communicating uncertainty to end-users and policy makers. The project will contribute to international and Indian initiatives and thus strengthen Swedish hydrological research on the global arena. The project will foster innovative integrated science, raise awareness in the scientific community, and deliver new knowledge with focus on floods, droughts and water status in sensitive environmental and societal systems under change. Regionen kring Himalaya, som omfattar fler miljoner kvadratkilometer, har mer snö och is än någon annanstans utanför polerna, vilket gett området namnet Den tredje polen. Inom området finns världens högsta berg och 10 stora floder börjar i detta område. Socio-ekonomiskt och kulturellt finns stora skillnader inom regionen, med dess olika etniska grupper och språk. Områdets naturresurser utgör den direkta basen för de flera hundra miljoner människor som bor i området, samt indirekt för den dryga miljard som bor i nedströms avrinningsområden. Klimatförändringen är ett allvarligt hot mot Himalaya eftersom bergsområden är speciellt känsliga för klimatförändring samt att delar av befolkningen hör till jordens mest sårbara. Förändringar av flodsystemen och avrinningsområdena har redan påverkat välbefinnandet för miljoner männsikor. Uppvärmningen är markant högre än jordens medeluppvärmning och den ökande trenden förväntas fortsätta. Klimatscenarier visar att medeltemperaturen i Södra Asien generellt förväntas öka med 1°C till slutet av seklet och i vissa områden kan ökningen bli 3-4°C. Detta lär komma att påverka stabiliteten och utvecklingen i de regioner som är beroende av Himalaya, vilket kan få konsekvenser för hela Asien såväl som för hela världen. Problematiken förstärks av att markanvändningen och befolkningsstrukturen förändras och vattenresurserna exploateras i en oöverträffad takt redan nu. Hanteringen av vattenresurserna kommer att behöva anpassas till de olika förändringar som sker. Denna anpassning måste bygga på en förståelse för de hydrologiska systemen som har sitt ursprung i Himalaya. Denna förståelse måste i sin tur bygga på observationer av klimat (temperatur, nederbörd, m.m.) och vattenflöden; observationer som kan användas för att bygga fysikaliskt baserade hydrologiska datormodeller av det hydrologiska systemet. Dessa modeller kan sedan användas för att bedöma vad som kommer att hända med vattenresurserna i takt med att klimatet såväl som t.ex. markanvändning och befolkningsmängd förändras. Detta underlag ger förutsättningar för en dialog med olika grupper av människor om hur förändringarna bäst ska mötas genom förändringar i viktiga samhälleliga sektorer såsom vattenförsörjning, jordbruk och energiproduktion. I detta projekt ska vi fokusera på de tre stora indiska floderna Ganges, Indus och Brahmaputra, vars vatten främst har sitt ursprung i Himalaya. Genom att använda olika hydrologiska modeller för att beskriva vattenflödena i dessa floder, modeller som är utvecklade både i Sverige och i Indien, samt att inhämta kunskap från lokal expertis, ska vi skapa en gemensam förståelse för de hydrologiska systemen som kommer att ge ny viktig kunskap om processerna. Speciellt fokus kommer att läggas på att utveckla beskrivningarna av avdunstning och snö-glaciär processer, som är avgörande för en fullständing beskrivning av systemet. Genom att kalibrera modellerna mot uppmätta vattenflödesdata kommer optimala modeller att tas fram, som kan beskriva dels dagens situation men också hur vattenflödena reagerar på olika förändringar i klimat, miljö och samhälle. Vad gäller klimatförändringen kommer vi att använda de allra senaste klimatscenarierna som finns för regionen, samt anpassa dessa för att på bästa sätt kunna använda dem i de hydrologiska modellerna. Förändringar i markanvändning och befolkning kan simuleras genom att studera historiska data eller framtida projektioner. Det slutliga resultatet är ett antal olika framtida vattenresursscenarier som avspeglar de kombinerade effekterna av olika förändringar. Modelleringen kommer hela tiden att ske i nära samarbete med olika avnämare, för att säkerställa att de framtagna vattenresursscenarierna har relevans. I början av projektet kommer olika avnämargrupper (t.ex. vattenförsörjning, jordbruk och energi) att identifieras och intervjuas, för att p.s.s. identifiera kopplade avnämargrupper och möjliggöra dialog mellan oika sektorer.

Better models are urgently needed to clarify complex interactions in systems where stewardship and sustainability are challenged by conflicting demands of multiple stakeholders with different resource-use profiles. Human-dominated landscape areas with abundant wildlife present particular challenges. First, large animals often inflict serious hazards to health and safety of humans and livestock. Second, mandated conservation policies prohibit converting land to agriculture. Resource management in these areas can be contentious when diverse stakeholders hold conflicting interests, or benefits and costs are unequally distributed. To maximize the inherently precarious potential of these systems, management must weigh social, economic and ecological factors. We have worked since 2010 with authorities and Maasai communities using participatory GIS in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Our established collaborations combined with ecological, genetic and social data will provide new approaches for securing pastoralist livelihoods and ecological sustainability. We will test feasibility of an incentive-based Performance Payment scheme that would counter costs of livestock depredation suffered by pastoralist communities, and establish an exchange program between Maasai pastoralists and reindeer herding Sámi communities in northern Sweden, where an incentive-based mitigation model was first implemented. Att främja traditionella boskapsskötares levnadsvillkor och sund viltförvaltning Människor påverkar idag en majoritet av jordens ekosystem, ofta som en direkt följd av växande befolkningar som förbrukar alltmer resurser.

Sverige och Tanzania har båda stora viltpopulationer i mångbrukade landskap, vilket skapar både utmaningar och möjligheter.

Förvaltningen av resurser som delas mellan olika parter med olika behov, och där vinster och kostnader fördelas ojämlikt är svår. Det ställer stora krav på förvaltningen som måste väga in sociala, ekonomiska och ekologiska faktorer. Vårt forskarteam har i nära samarbete med lokalbefolkning och Tanzaniska myndigheter jobbat med den här typen av frågor sedan 2010 i Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA). Området delas av Maasaier (nomadiserande boskapsskötare), deras boskap, stora viltstammar och en intensiv turistindustri, främst baserad på viltturism. Här lever Maasaierna nästan enbart på boskapsskötsel, odling är förbjudet och det finns få andra tillgängliga inkomstkällor. Samtidigt som befolkningen har ökat tiofalt de senaste femtio åren, så har boskapshjordarna stagnerat då bete och vatten inte räcker till. Färre boskap per person och begränsat med alternativ har lett till ökad marginalisering, fattigdom och hunger. Konflikter med rovdjur är därför kännbara. I NCA attackeras mer än tusen boskap årligen av stora rovdjur. För att förhindra rovdjursangrepp så är det vanligt att rovdjuren dödas. Lejon står för cirka 20% av dessa angrepp, och de attackerar främst de värdefulla korna. Konflikterna har lett till att lejonstammen minskat drastiskt i området. Samtidigt är lejonet en ikon for Afrika, för turisterna och, inte minst, för Maasaierna som trots allt inte vill förlora detta vördade rovdjur. I det här tvärvetenskapliga strävar vi efter att stärka nomadiserande boskapsskötares kunskap och inflytande, främja samexistens mellan människa och vilt, samt att uppmuntra till uthålligt resursnyttjande i ett mångbrukat landskap. Interaktioner mellan människa och vilt kan ha stor betydelse för människors livsuppehälle och på viltpopulationerna.

Med hjälp av lokal medverkan kommer vi angripa dessa frågor från en ny vinkel genom att kombinera geografiska, genetiska och sociala data som vi samlar tillsammans med intressenterna. Våra huvudsakliga frågeställningar är: 1) Hur nyttjar människor, boskap och vilt landskapet i tid och rum, och hur ser samspelet ut? 2) Utforska metoder för att förhindra konflikter mellan människa och vilt? 3) Hur påverkar interaktioner rovdjurens populationsdynamik och rörelsemönster? 4) Hur fungerar partnersamverkan i NCA mellan stat och lokalbefolkningen?

Molecular identification of plant material is an expressed critical interest for the research capacities at the Institute of Traditional Medicine, ITM, as it allows for the identification and monitoring of trade in Tanzania´s rich biological and genetic resources, which is crucial to implementing the CBD and CITES conventions. Our lab in Uppsala has been at the forefront of the development of DNA barcoding of plant species in trade and forensic material, and our work with next-generation sequencing for analysis of species complexes and mixtures is state-of-the-art. The objectives of the project are to: 1) make a quantitative investigation of wild-harvested medicinal plants; 2) identify diversity and volumes of medicinal plants traded in Tanzania; 3) use DNA barcoding for the identification of medicinal plants traded from local markets, border checkpoints and Dar es Salaam Airport; 4) use Ion-Torrent NGS for molecular identification of species in mixtures and processed products; 5) and use standard and innovative NGS-generated markers for the identification of wild-harvested orchids. This project will help our partners to take directed measures to protect consumers from toxic adulterants, protect endangered species from destructive overharvesting, curb biopiracy and trade in endangered wildlife, and facilitate controlled sustainable exploitation of medicinal plant resources. I Tanzania används medicinalväxter av många människor som primär källa för hälsovård. Kommersiell handel är det största hotet mot vilda medicinalväxter. Där insamlingen av vilda medicinalväxter sker mest, är i kustskogar och i afroalpina områden, som också är några av de mest hotade platserna för den biologiska mångfalden i Afrika. Övervakning av handeln med vilda medicinalväxter är komplicerad eftersom de flesta material handlas i torkad eller pulveriserad form. Uppskattningsvis så bedrivs denna handel med mer än 500 arter. Övervakning av handeln i Tanzanias genetiska resurser är avgörande för implementering av Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) och Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), samt för att skapa ett system för hållbart utnyttjande. Molekylära metoder för identifiering av biologiskt material, såsom DNA barcoding med standardmarkörer och nästa generations sekvensering (NGS), gör det möjligt att identifiera bearbetat material som hittills har varit omöjligt att identifiera. Dessa metoder har förbättrats de senaste åren och i allt högre grad används forensisk identifiering av CITES-listade växter. Projektet syftar till att använda kvantitativa marknadsundersökningar i kombination med strukturerade intervjuer för att dokumentera förekomst, tillgänglighet och kvalitet på arterna i handeln, och att använda nästa generations DNA-sekvensering för molekylär artbestämning. DNA-sekvensdata från marknadsprov kommer att användas för molekylär identifiering genom att matcha de genererade sekvenserna med sekvenser från identifierade refererade herbariesamlingar från tidigare fältarbete, internationella herbarier, och även mot online-databaser. Detta kommer att möjliggöra korrekt identifiering av insamlade vilda växter samt de specifika delar som används inom läkekonsten, t.ex. rötter, bark och trä, innan dessa behandlas vidare för försäljning i detaljhandeln, och möjliggöra identifiering på artnivå. Molekylär DNA-identifiering av växtmaterial är av uttalat starkt intresse för forskningskapaciteten vid Institutet för traditionell medicin (ITM) i Tanzania, eftersom det skulle göra det möjligt för identifiering och övervakning av nationell så som internationell handel av Tanzanias rika biologiska och genetiska mångfald. Identifieringen är avgörande för genomförandet av CBD och CITES, stävjandet av biopiracy och den illegala handeln med utrotningshotade djur, och dessutom förbättra kunskapen om (inter)nationell handel av medicinalväxter. Medicinalväxthandeln är oftast en horisontell handel mellan låginkomstländer, som ofta förvärras av okunskap och otillräckliga morfologiska identifieringsmetoder. Den kompetens och utrustning som krävs för utvecklingen av molekylära identifieringsmetoder, speciellt de som involverar nästa generations sekvensering (NGS), finns hos en liten grupp höginkomstländer. Samarbetet kring utveckling av dessa identifieringssystem är en väsentlig del av kunskapsöverföring, horisontell rättvisa och kooperativ kunskapsutveckling. Dessa system kan användas oberoende av varandra i länder som Tanzania genom att bygga upp en lokal forskningsinfrastruktur, och därigenom göra det möjligt för lokal utbildning och spridning av dessa metoder. Identifieringsmetoderna kommer att komma till användning för statliga och icke-statliga organ med uppgift att övervaka den pågående illegala handeln och därigenom bidra till ett ökat miljöskydd. Utbildning och handledning till lärare och doktorander vid ITM i molekylärbiologiska metoder för DNA-barcoding kommer att möjliggöra snabb spridning av kunskap, samt ge viktig träning i molekylär metodik som är en efterfrågad kompetens inom lokala forsknings- och utvecklingsfunktioner inom läkemedelsindustrin.

Molecular identification of plant material is an expressed critical interest for the research capacities at the Institute of Traditional Medicine, ITM, as it allows for the identification and monitoring of trade in Tanzania´s rich biological and genetic resources, which is crucial to implementing the CBD and CITES conventions. Our lab in Uppsala has been at the forefront of the development of DNA barcoding of plant species in trade and forensic material, and our work with next-generation sequencing for analysis of species complexes and mixtures is state-of-the-art. The objectives of the project are to: 1) make a quantitative investigation of wild-harvested medicinal plants; 2) identify diversity and volumes of medicinal plants traded in Tanzania; 3) use DNA barcoding for the identification of medicinal plants traded from local markets, border checkpoints and Dar es Salaam Airport; 4) use Ion-Torrent NGS for molecular identification of species in mixtures and processed products; 5) and use standard and innovative NGS-generated markers for the identification of wild-harvested orchids. This project will help our partners to take directed measures to protect consumers from toxic adulterants, protect endangered species from destructive overharvesting, curb biopiracy and trade in endangered wildlife, and facilitate controlled sustainable exploitation of medicinal plant resources.

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. Luftföroreningar är ett stort problem som påverkar hälsa, klimat och matproduktion i det flesta utvecklingsländer. FNs miljöprogam UNEP har nyligen presenterat en utvärdering där man identifierar sot (på engelska black carbon eller BC) och ozon som två luftföroreningar av särskild betydelse då framtida åtgärder som minskar halterna mildrar klimatförändringar samtidigt som hälsa och grödor skyddas. Under de senaste åren har kortlivade klimatpåverkande luftföroreningar (SLCF) vuxit fram som ett nytt och viktigt koncept. Sverige har spelat en central roll i att introducera begreppet som ett parallellt spår till traditionella åtgärder för att mildra mänsklig påverkan på klimatet. Dagens satsningar på åtgärder mot (SLCF) tog sin början i det av UNEP stödda ?Asian Brown Cloud?-projektet där man identifierade ett omfattande brunt dis av luftföroreningar. I detta dis finner man höga halter av aerosolpartiklar, inklusive sot, och gasformiga ämnen som genom fotokemiska reaktioner producerar höga halter av ozon och sekundära organiska aerosolpartiklar (SOA). Modellberäkningar visar att den förorenade luften i diset ger upphov till negativa hälsoeffekter på miljoner mycket fattiga människor samtidigt som det påverkar skördar och ger effekter på det regionalla klimatet. Utvecklingen av dessa modeller pågår ständigt och man kan delvis använda grundläggande kunskap som tagits fram för förhållanden i USA och Europa och där modellerna validerats med avancerade och omfattande mätprogram. I utvecklingsländer finns det oftast endast begränsade mätprogram och små resurser för att vetenskapligt utvärdera dessa mätningar mot relevanta laboratorieförsök eller modeller som beskriver de specifika och ibland extrema luftföroreningsepisoderna. I detta projekt fokuserar vi på en av de mest förorenade regionerna på jorden där utbredd fattigdom och begränsade möjligheter till kraftfulla åtgärder leder till en ständigt försämrad luftkvalité och ökad risk för dramatiska klimatförändringar. Området är det nordindiska låglandet som är ett intensivt jordbruksområde, men där man på grund av ozonskador kan uppskatta ett skördebortfall på upp till 20%. Mätningar av luftföroreningar i dessa områden begränsas till ett litet antal utvalda ämnen och är lokaliserade till storstadsområdena. Inom projektet vill vi fokusera på landsbygden och de problem som där kan kopplas till luftföroreningarna sot och ozon. Detta ger underlag som på ett effektivt sätt kopplar till de regionala problem som finns, inklusive den omfattande regionala förbränningen av biomassa som även sker som en del av traditioner inom jordbruket. Vi har valt ut ett kollektivjordbruk som drivs på initiativ av ?the Indian REaD (Research Education and Development) Foundation? och som även bidra med utvecklande miljöer för kvinnor i fattiga områden. Genom mycket god lokalkännedom (huvudsökandes hemort) kan vi på detta kollektivjordbruk trots oerhörd fattigdom och brist på infrastruktur påbörja en mätserie av regionala luftföroreningar. Dessa mätningar kommer att vara av stor betydelse på flera sätt. För det första kommer vi att få tillgång till unika data som kan kopplas samman med processförståelse från laboratorieförsök. Vi har ett fokus på kontinuerliga mätningar av sot och ozon. För att få en grundläggande förståelse av bidrag från olika emissionskällor och fotokemiska processer i den indiska miljön kommer vi att genomföra veckovisa filtermätningar. Filtren analyseras dels för elementinnehåll men också med en ny avancerad metod för att bättre förstå organisk aerosolbildning. Denna metod bygger på högupplöst masspektrometri med kemisk jonisation där vi kommer att identifiera 100-tals olika organiska ämnen för användning som fingeravtryck för olika processer som även studeras i våra laboratorieförsök. För det andra vill vi få en tydlig uppfattning av variationen i luftföroreningshalter med timupplösning men även över säsonger och i förlängningen över flera år för att kunna följa hur denna påverkas av klimat Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden India Environmental research General Environment Protection Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2014-3496-1 Sweden The Indo Gangnetic plain, IGP, (North India) is exposed to one of the most severe regional air pollutions situation on Earth.

Peepoo is a single-use, self-sanitising, biodegradable toilet for reuse of plant nutrients. The Peepoo encloses single defecations and start sanitisation of faeces immediate upon use. This research aims to study health effect from Peepoo school sanitation and deworming and to optimize microbial safety of Peepoo reuse chain, when operating at large scale in Kibera, Nairobi urban slum area, Kenya. The project is based on surveillance of health indicators as absenteeism, nutritional indicators, self-reported health and a large number of microbial analyses. Microbial analyses used to establish prevalence/hazard identification, investigate rate of reinfection after deworming, to model sanitisation, to screen sanitation and reuse chain to determine exposure routes and finally quantitatively assess microbial risks (QMRA), from collection of used Peepoos to fields and produced food. Expected outcome is knowledge about health effects when contact with excreta is minimized and about timeliness with deworming. Relating indicator organisms, pathogens and process parameters give information on how to validate santisation. Performing QMRA based mainly on context specific data will enable to study not only the object for the risk assessment but also the methodology per se. Cirka 40-60 % av världens befolkning estimeras sakna tillräcklig sanitet vilket resulterar i en förorenad miljö från vilken smittämnen sprids. Årligen dör 2,2 miljoner människor till följd av infektiös diarré vilket är med än till följd av HIV, malaria och mässling tillsammas. Dock överskuggas hälsoeffekten från sanitetsrelaterade sjukdomar av effekten från undernäring och bristsjukdomar. Detta samtidigt som toalettavfall, vilket till stor del slutligen hamnar i vattendrag via avlopp och ytavrinning, innehåller miljoner ton näringsämnen, 20 till 30 % av vad den globala mineralgödselindustrin producerar årligen. Produktiv sanitet, vilken på ett säkert sätt återför växtnäringsämnen till jordbruksproduktion kan minska den globala hälsobördan med dubbla medel. 2002 års milleniemål, att halvera den andel av mänskligheten som saknar basal sanitet till år 2015 är långt ifrån att uppfyllas. Majoriteten av de som saknar sanitet i fattiga områden och en ökande andel lever i snabbt växande urbana slumområden med extrem befolkningstäthet. Sanitetslösningar som bygger på komplexa investeringar, utbyggd infrastruktur och institutionell förändring kommer inte att nå dessa människor. Peepoo är en själhygieniserande, bionedbrytbar engångs toalett som kan vara en del av lösningen på sanitetskrisen i och med att den inte kräver dyra investeringar utan för användaren kan väljas utifrån behov och vara en tillfällig eller komplett lösning. Dess hälsoförbättrande effekt kommer från minskad smittspridning och ökad växt produktion. Smittspridning förhindras genom att användaren har en ren, inte delad toalett; genom att innesluta fekalierna och att påbörja behandling vid användandet oberoende av fortsatt hantering. Växtproduktion kan ökas genom att tillhandahålla lokalt tillgängligt gödsel vilket kan öka skörden genom att tillföra näring och förbättra jordegenskaper. Detta projekt kommer att studera hälsoeffekter vid införandet av Peepoo skolsanitet i kombination med avmaskning samt i optimera Peepoo hanterings- och återföringssystem med avseende på säker återföring av växtnäringsämnen och minskad miljöförorening. Projektet kommer att utföras i nära sammarbete med Peepoople Kenya som driver ett uppstartsprojekt i Kibera, Nairobi, andra största slumområdet i Afrika samr med Center for Disease Control (CDC) Kenya som också verkar i området. Projektet inkluderar: * analyser av prevalens och patogenkoncentrationer i fekalier och hygieniseringsgrad i Peepoo-toaletten, vilka tillsammans skall ligga till grund för att skapa en modell för hygieniseringen i Peepoo utifrån fekalie- och miljöparametrar samt att identifiera och definiera kontrollparametrar för säkerställd hygienisering. *studie av hälsoindikatorer hos skolbarn, såsom frånvaro, näringsindikatorer som vikt och längd, självrapporterad hälsa och återinfektion, i samband med santiets införande och avmaskning i skolor. *miljöprovtagning av sanitets- och återföringskedjan för bestämning av patogenkoncentrationer och exponeringsvägar viket leder till identifiering av steg i hanteringen som är kritiska för en säker hantering för arbetare såväl som för konsumenter av gödslad gröda. *Kvantitativ mikrobiell riskvärdering för sanitets och återföringskedjan, från användare till konsumenter av gödslad gröda för att säkerställa en hantering som inte ökar risken för infektion av patogener i toalettavfall.

Alla i Europa verkar tala om bioekonomi. Men vad är bioekonomi? Bioekonomi innebär att vi tar allt vi behöver från naturen, utan att skada vår miljö. Vi minskar föroreningsmängden till ett minimum, vi använder inte olja som transportmedel för våra bilar, vi använder inte plast eller något som inte kan återanvändas eller återvinnas, eller ännu bättre, brytas ner biologiskt. Allt vi använder produceras med minsta möjliga miljöpåverkan och inget går till spillo. Vi använder träd och marina växter på ett kontrollerat sätt att vi inte skadar ekosystemet och vi producerar bioplast, bioetanol och andra biokemikalier. För att uppnå detta måste det material vi samlar in från träden och marina växter, biomassa, förberedas på ett sådant sätt att det blir lättare att använda den. Vad gäller bioplaster, måste vi skilja olika komponenter i biomassan och ändra vissa av deras egenskaper. För produktion av biokemikalier, måste vi bryta ner biomassan till små osynliga delar, socker, som nästan är som sockret som vi använder i vårt kaffe eller te. I Europa försöker vi göra bioekonomi en realitet, men i låginkomstländer, som Viet Nam, behöver det mycket mer ansträngning för att uppnå det. Fattigdom, brist på kunskap och teknik samt okunskap om konsekvenserna av vårt fossila beroende liv, gör det svårare för människor att förstå de positiva effekterna av den biobaserade ekonomin, inte bara där men i hela världen. Detta projekt syftar till att ge nödvändiga kunskaper, tillgång till teknik och nya idéer, som kommer att hjälpa Viet Nam att utveckla egna bioraffinaderier. Bioraffinaderi är som en fabrik som tar biomassa, liksom den del av vete eller ris som inte äter vi, behandla det med enzymer eller andra metoder och sedan producera biobränslen eller biokemikalier, med hjälp av en jäst likartad med den som vi använder för att göra bröd, öl eller vin. Produktionen av dessa biokemikalier kommer att ge till Viet Nam fler jobbar, högre levnadsstandard, men också att förstå om vikten att minska beroendet för fossila bränslen och slösa naturresurser. Idag är tonnen av biprodukter från jordbruket brännas eller bortskaffas. I detta projekt kommer vi att söka efter nya mikroorganismer och enzymer som kan bryta ner biomassan till socker.

This project aims at a better understanding of some novel, practical tools to fight corruption in developing countries, leniency policies and whistle-blower protection and rewards schemes, and their interactions with analogous tools aimed at fighting cartels in public procurement. We will first theoretically address leniency policies and whistleblower rewards-protection schemes as tools to breach the trust-like relationship between corrupt parties, and their the interaction with analogous tools directed at breaking cartels; second, and most importantly, we will empirically study two important cases for the fight of corruption and mismanagement of public funds in developing countries for which we can collect reliable data (for the first time ever on the interaction between corruption and collusion): the ?Siemens case? and the ?Stadions case? in Brazil. Results will have a direct policy impact on how leniency and whistleblower programs against corruption and against bid rigging in procurement should be designed and administered, and on the connected sources of corruption and inefficiency in the procurement of large infrastructure projects in developing countries. The results are also likely to be relevant to related forms of organized crime plaguing developing countries (smuggling, drug cartels and human trafficking organizations).

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. Kvinnor är mer fredsälskande än män. Det ligger i deras natur; de är uppfostrade till det; det bara är så. Eller är det verkligen så? Inom fredsforskningen finns en grundläggande hypotes kring kvinnor och attityder till fred: ´kvinnor och fred´-hypotesen. Enligt hypotesen är kvinnor fredligare och villigare att kompromissa än män. Hypotesen har länge varit en viktig influens i tankar om könsroller och konflikt, inom såväl forskningen som samhället i stort. Men när forskare har undersökt hypotesen i sina studier har de fått blandade resultat. I västländer har studierna gällt exempelvis attityder till att inleda krig i andra länder, och forskarna har då sett fredligare attityder hos kvinnor än hos män. I Mellanöstern, å andra sidan, har studierna fokuserat på regionens pågående konflikt mellan Israel och arabländer, och då har ingen skillnad setts mellan mäns och kvinnors attityder. Och hur är det i länder som upplevt inbördeskrig? Det föreslagna projektet har framförallt två viktiga bidrag till teorin kring ´kvinnor och fred´-hypotesen: 1) det skulle vara det första forskningsprojektet att undersöka hypotesen i länder efter inbördeskrig ? den vanligaste formen av krig i världen i dag, 2) det skulle studera hur gender (kön) och krigsupplevelser påverkar attityder till fred. Rent praktiskt skulle mer kunskap om kvinnors och mäns attityder till fredsprocesser, och vad som påverkar dessa attityder, ge möjligheter att förbättra förutsättningarna till hållbar fred efter inbördeskrig. Projektet kombinerar fredsforskning med psykologisk forskning och skulle med hjälp av enkäter, fokusgrupper och djupintervjuer i Liberia och Sierra Leone studera hur gender (kön) påverkar attityder till fred, och till vilken grad dessa attityder påverkas av krigstrauman. Män och kvinnor drabbas av olika typer av våld och övergrepp i krig ? fler män blir dödade i krig, medan fler kvinnor utsätts för icke-dödligt våld som tex sexuellt våld. Efter inbördeskrig fortsätter man att leva sida vid sida, som innan kriget. Det är därför av största vikt att få en bättre förståelse för om och i så fall hur kvinnors och mäns olika upplevelser av kriget kan påverka deras respektive attityder till fred och försoning. Baserat på tidigare forskning från Rwanda, ställer sig projektet frågan om det är så att fredsbyggande fasen innebär utmaningar som tidigare inte har uppmärksammats för kvinnor.

These are pertinent questions that local and international mediators and policymakers grapple over in a large number of contemporary peace processes, notably those in Mali, Syria, Central African Republic, South Sudan and Colombia. The purpose of this project is to identify both the conditions under which civil society actors may influence the dynamics and outcome of a peace process, and explore the more long-term effects of such involvement on the prospects for establishing sustainable peace and democratic governance in war-torn societies. In particular, this project aims to address key questions about the relevance of the number of civil society actors involved, the type of actors, and their various roles and functions during the process. In order to do so, we will conduct an in-depth comparative analysis of two post-war countries, Sierra Leone and Liberia, that have both seen a significant degree of civil society involvement over the years, although with striking differences between various peace negotiations, and with intriguing variations concerning the outcome across time and space. The findings from this project will be of great relevance not only to the academic community, but also to policymakers working on these issues. Att främja eller förhindra fred? Civila samhällets involvering i fredsprocesserna i Sierra Leone och Liberia Kan civila samhällets deltagande i fredsprocesser påverka möjligheterna att nå ett fredsavtal? Kan civila samhällets närvaro eller frånvaro i sådana processer påverka innehållet i fredsavtalet? På vilket sätt kan deltagande från civila samhället påverka de långsiktiga möjligheterna för hållbar fred och demokrati i utvecklingsländer som genomgått ett inbördeskrig? Detta är frågor som ofta aktualiseras för lokala och internationella medlare och praktiker som är engagerade i samtida fredsprocesser såsom i Mali, Syrien, Centralafrikanska republiken, Sydsudan och Colombia. Forskarsamhället är dock inte överens om hur civila samhället bäst kan involveras i dessa processer. Det finns de som menar att man genom deltagande från civila samhället kan få allmänhetens stöd för fredsprocessen och därigenom bidra till dess framgång. Andra menar dock att ett ökat antal aktörer innebär att komplexiteten i förhandlingarna och processen ökar, vilket i värsta fall kan leda till inställda fredssamtal och fortsatt inbördeskrig. Detta projekts syfte är att identifiera under vilka omständigheter som aktörer från civila samhället kan påverka dynamiken och utgången av en fredsprocess och även undersöka de långsiktiga effekterna avseende möjligheterna för hållbar fred och demokrati i samhällen som genomgått inbördeskrig. Vi kommer genomföra en jämförande analys av två post-konfliktsamhällen, Sierra Leone och Liberia, som båda har haft deltagande från civila samhället under åren, men med intressanta variationer mellan olika fredsförhandlingar och med olika utfall under fredsprocesserna. Teoretiskt bidrar detta projekt med att utveckla de kausala mekanismerna genom vilka civila samhället kan påverka huruvida fredsprocesser blir framgångsrika eller misslyckade. Projektet fokuserar på antalet aktörer som deltar, typen av aktör, samt deras roll under fredsprocessen för att på så sätt fånga de centrala elementen av dessa processer. För det första kan antalet aktörer i sig vara viktigt för att endera öka komplexiteten i processen eller öka stödet bland allmänheten. För det andra kan också typen av aktör påverka möjligheterna att nå en lösning. Exempelvis finns det de som menar att religiösa aktörer genom att ha särskild trovärdighet bland de stridande parterna kan öka chanserna att nå avtal. I Moçambique var den katolska organisationen Sant´Egidio engagerad som medlare och genom sin goda relation med biskopen i Beira hade den stor trovärdighet hos de två stridande parterna. Detta sägs ha varit gynnsamt för fredsförhandlingarna som resulterade i ett fredsavtal 1992. Slutligen, för det tredje kan de olika roller som civila samhället har under fredsprocessen vara av betydelse, antingen genom att civila samhället direkt är med och påverkar vid förhandlingsbordet eller genom att de bidrar på andra sätt, såsom i parallella fora eller massdemonstrationer. I Liberia deltog kvinnoorganisationer både genom att vara med i massdemonstrationer för fred och genom att finnas med vid fredsförhandlingarna i Accra där ett fredsavtal slöts 2003. En av de kvinnor som var med och organiserade samt ledde dessa fredsinitiativ, Leymah Gbowee, fick sedan motta Nobels Fredspris 2011. Det återstår dock att undersöka vilka av dessa roller som kan fungera bäst och om civilsamhället bör verka direkt vid förhandlingsbordet eller om andra former är mer effektiva för att få fredsförhandlingarna att lyckas. Resultaten från detta projekt kommer göra ett viktigt bidrag till forskningen inom detta område genom att belysa en brännande fråga där forskarsamhället ännu inte kunnat enas. Resultaten kommer också vara värdefulla för olika tredjepartsaktörer, eftersom dessa ofta måste ta ställning till om, hur och på vilket sätt aktörer från civila samhället bör involveras i fredsprocesser. Dessa beslut kan potentiellt påverka de långsiktiga möjligheterna för hållbar fred och demokrati i utvecklin Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Liberia Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2014-3847-1 Sweden Does the involvement of civil society actors in civil war peace processes affect the success or failure of the peace negotiations, and does it affect the long-term prospects for sustainable peace in developing post-war societies?

The findings from this project will be of great relevance not only to the academic community, but also to policymakers working on these issues. Att främja eller förhindra fred? Civila samhällets involvering i fredsprocesserna i Sierra Leone och Liberia Kan civila samhällets deltagande i fredsprocesser påverka möjligheterna att nå ett fredsavtal? Kan civila samhällets närvaro eller frånvaro i sådana processer påverka innehållet i fredsavtalet? På vilket sätt kan deltagande från civila samhället påverka de långsiktiga möjligheterna för hållbar fred och demokrati i utvecklingsländer som genomgått ett inbördeskrig? Detta är frågor som ofta aktualiseras för lokala och internationella medlare och praktiker som är engagerade i samtida fredsprocesser såsom i Mali, Syrien, Centralafrikanska republiken, Sydsudan och Colombia. Forskarsamhället är dock inte överens om hur civila samhället bäst kan involveras i dessa processer. Det finns de som menar att man genom deltagande från civila samhället kan få allmänhetens stöd för fredsprocessen och därigenom bidra till dess framgång. Andra menar dock att ett ökat antal aktörer innebär att komplexiteten i förhandlingarna och processen ökar, vilket i värsta fall kan leda till inställda fredssamtal och fortsatt inbördeskrig. Detta projekts syfte är att identifiera under vilka omständigheter som aktörer från civila samhället kan påverka dynamiken och utgången av en fredsprocess och även undersöka de långsiktiga effekterna avseende möjligheterna för hållbar fred och demokrati i samhällen som genomgått inbördeskrig. Vi kommer genomföra en jämförande analys av två post-konfliktsamhällen, Sierra Leone och Liberia, som båda har haft deltagande från civila samhället under åren, men med intressanta variationer mellan olika fredsförhandlingar och med olika utfall under fredsprocesserna. Teoretiskt bidrar detta projekt med att utveckla de kausala mekanismerna genom vilka civila samhället kan påverka huruvida fredsprocesser blir framgångsrika eller misslyckade. Projektet fokuserar på antalet aktörer som deltar, typen av aktör, samt deras roll under fredsprocessen för att på så sätt fånga de centrala elementen av dessa processer. För det första kan antalet aktörer i sig vara viktigt för att endera öka komplexiteten i processen eller öka stödet bland allmänheten. För det andra kan också typen av aktör påverka möjligheterna att nå en lösning. Exempelvis finns det de som menar att religiösa aktörer genom att ha särskild trovärdighet bland de stridande parterna kan öka chanserna att nå avtal. I Moçambique var den katolska organisationen Sant´Egidio engagerad som medlare och genom sin goda relation med biskopen i Beira hade den stor trovärdighet hos de två stridande parterna. Detta sägs ha varit gynnsamt för fredsförhandlingarna som resulterade i ett fredsavtal 1992. Slutligen, för det tredje kan de olika roller som civila samhället har under fredsprocessen vara av betydelse, antingen genom att civila samhället direkt är med och påverkar vid förhandlingsbordet eller genom att de bidrar på andra sätt, såsom i parallella fora eller massdemonstrationer. I Liberia deltog kvinnoorganisationer både genom att vara med i massdemonstrationer för fred och genom att finnas med vid fredsförhandlingarna i Accra där ett fredsavtal slöts 2003. En av de kvinnor som var med och organiserade samt ledde dessa fredsinitiativ, Leymah Gbowee, fick sedan motta Nobels Fredspris 2011. Det återstår dock att undersöka vilka av dessa roller som kan fungera bäst och om civilsamhället bör verka direkt vid förhandlingsbordet eller om andra former är mer effektiva för att få fredsförhandlingarna att lyckas. Resultaten från detta projekt kommer göra ett viktigt bidrag till forskningen inom detta område genom att belysa en brännande fråga där forskarsamhället ännu inte kunnat enas. Resultaten kommer också vara värdefulla för olika tredjepartsaktörer, eftersom dessa ofta måste ta ställning till om, hur och på vilket sätt aktörer från civila samhället bör involveras i fredsprocesser. Dessa beslut kan potentiellt påverka de långsiktiga möjligheterna för hållbar fred och demokrati i utvecklin Sweden Uppsala universitet The Swedish Research Council Uppsala universitet Gender Equality Aid to Environment Participatory Development/Good Governance Trade Development Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Mitigation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Adaptation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention to Combat Desertification Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH) Disaster Risk Reduction(DRR) Disability 1000000 1000000 1000000 1000000 4000000 Uppsala universitet 958329 Uppsala universitet 1041666 Uppsala universitet 1000000 Uppsala universitet 1000000 Uppsala universitet SE-0-SE-29-2014-3848 Sweden The study focuses on smallholders in sub-Saharan Africa and aims to assess under what social and institutional conditions pro-poor agricultural growth entrenches or redresses gender based differences in access to agrarian resources and what consequences this has for linkages to the nonfarm sector. The project uses a mixed-methods, longitudinal, multi-scalar approach to compare growth dynamics across countries, regions, villages and households, while situating individuals within households. The lack of existing comparative data on gender and growth, village level institutions and intra-household relationships is addressed through combining quantitative and qualitative data collection with GIS. Quantitative data from 2013/15, from Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania and Zambia will be used, building on data collected in 2002 and 2008. The quantitative data will enable assessing the existence and drivers of pro-poor agricultural growth, the location of such dynamics to particular regions and villages and whether women are discriminated against in these processes. Qualitative data on social and institutional village characteristics as well as intra-household gender dynamics will be collected in villages involved in pro-poor agricultural growth as well as villages having experienced withdrawal from agricultural markets. The purpose is to document village level institutional frameworks with respect to gendered access to productive resources within and outside agriculture. Kvinnor, män, småskaliga bönder och försörjning i Afrikanska byar Under det senaste decenniet har stora satsningar gjorts på afrikanska småbrukare, både av inhemska politiker, biståndsgivare och filantropiska organisationer. Förhoppningen är att Afrika ska följa Asiens exempel, där produktivitetsökningar inom det småskaliga jordbruket tillsammans med industrialiseringen banade väg för omfattande fattigdomsminskningar. Detta recept för tillväxt och fattigdomsbekämpning bygger på en ökad kommersialisering inom småbrukarsektorn som i sin tur förutsätter att majoriteten av småbrukare har möjlighet att sälja sina varor. Förutsättningar för kvinnor att marknadsföra sina produkter är dock helt annorlunda än för män, eftersom bara 15% av jordbruksmarken i Afrika söder om Sahara kontrolleras av kvinnor. Kvinnor måste därför i större utsträckning än män försörja sig genom inkomstkällor utanför jordbruket. Projektet kommer att studera vilka konsekvenser fattigdomsbekämpning via jordbruket har för kvinnor respektive män i Afrika söder om Sahara. Genom att bygga vidare på en databas med hushållsdata från 2002 och 2008, kommer inkomstdata att finnas för 2500 småbrukarhushåll i Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique och Tanzania, som jämför manligt och kvinnligt ledda hushåll. I tillägg kommer personliga intervjuer att göras med kvinnor och män i både manligt och kvinnligt ledda hushåll i tolv byar, för att se hur kvinnor och män fördelar arbetskraft, resurser och inkomster inom hushållet och mellan jordbruket och sysselsättningar utanför jordbruket. Nyckelpersoner i byarna kommer också att intervjuas när det gäller kvinnors tillgång till marknader, teknologi, jordbruksrådgivning, utbildning och kredit. På så sätt kan vi studera hur tillväxtprocesser inom jordbruket påverkar kvinnor - om de gynnas eller missgynnas och vad det beror på. Hur kvinnor använder sig av inkomstkällor utanför jordbruket är också relevant. Syftet är att ta fram kunskaper om vad som kan göras för att satsningar på jordbruk ska kunna bli mer jämlika ur genussynpunkt, genom att t ex bredda satsningar också mot andra inkomstkällor utanför jordbruket.

Virtually all high income countries have such policies in place, and typically they cover all developing countries. This project asks: What happens when developing countries are graduated (withdrawn) from such preference programs? Even though graduation is increasingly common, there is next to no research on its effects. To answer the question, country- and firm-level trade and investment data is used, and advanced econometric models test the effects on several economic outcomes such as export earnings, export diversification and foreign direct investment. The project is important for two main reasons. (i) The countries that are graduated may face severe adverse effects when meeting increasing trade barriers to their export markets. Identifying those effects is therefore of direct policy relevance for current or future graduated countries (these are primarily middle income countries). (ii) Focusing on countries leaving rather than entering preference programs offers strong methodological advantages when evaluating the effects of trade preference programs, so the project will also produce much more reliable results concerning the effect of trade preference programs. Conclusions will therefore be relevant to all low and middle income countries. Vad händer när utvecklingsländer plötsligt möter höjda barriärer för export till rika länder? Internationell handel ses allmänt som ett viktigt redskap för att åstadkomma ökad ekonomisk tillväxt i låg- och medelinkomstländer (dvs de som ofta kallas *utvecklingsländer*). Ekonomisk tillväxt är i sin tur en nyckelfaktor för att få fart på fattigdomsbekämpning och utveckling. Visserligen är det viktigt att påpeka att ekonomisk tillväxt inte alltid behöver leda till exempelvis minskad fattigdom eftersom många länder präglas av en väldigt ojämlik fördelning av ekonomiska och andra resurser. Trots det så står det ganska klart att det är betydligt lättare att hjälpa särskilt utsatta grupper när hela ekonomin växer jämfört med en situation där ekonomin stagnerat. Eftersom det alltså finns ett positivt samband mellan å ena sidan internationell handel och ekonomisk tillväxt, och å andra sidan ekonomisk tillväxt och minskad fattigdom och andra viktiga utvecklingsmål, så är det högintressant för forskningen att utvärdera policyer som påverkar utvecklingsländers möjligheter att exportera till rikare marknader. När det gäller just utvecklingsländers exportmöjligheter så påverkas de i hög grad av s.k. icke-ömsesidiga handelspreferenser (kallas ofta bara handelspreferenser). Handelspreferenser är ett policyredskap där rikare ekonomier tillämpar lägre tullar och andra handelshinder på export som kommer från utvecklingsländer än på export som kommer från andra höginkomstländer. I det här projektet studeras vad som händer när utvecklingsländer utesluts från preferenshandelsprogram (detta kallas rent tekniskt att landet *graderas*). Vi använder empirisk data på bland annat handel och investeringar från multinationella företag, och undersöker med hjälp av statistiska modeller hur t.ex. exportintäkter, exportdiversifiering och investeringar påverkas då länder graderas. Varför är det viktigt att studera vad som händer när länder graderas från preferenshandelsprogram? Vi tror att det finns åtminstone två viktiga lärdomar som kan dras utifrån det här forskningsprojektet. För det första finns det i nuläget så gott som ingen forskning alls som fokuserar på gradering, så vi vet ytterst lite om vad följderna blir. Kanske drabbas t.ex. de graderade länder av kraftigt minskade exportflöden när de plötsligt möter högre handelsbarriärer än tidigare, eller kanske är de såpass konkurrenskraftiga att de klarar övergången utan större problem. Att ta reda på vad följderna blir är därför viktigt, både för att möjliggöra för de berörda länderna att själva anpassa sin politik så att de kan motverka de potentiella negativa effekterna, och för att hjälpa de länder som tillämpar graderingen att utvärdera policyn. En andra viktig lärdom som indirekt kan dras utifrån projektet är om preferenshandelsprogram i sig faktiskt har den effekt som man hoppas. Visserligen finns det redan en hel del forskning som undersöker om handelspreferenser faktiskt ökar exportflöden från utvecklingsländer, men så gott som alla studier har det gemensamt att de fokuserar på vad som händer omedelbart efter det att landet får tillgång till nya handelspreferenser. Utifrån ett forskningsperspektiv så är det, hävdar vi, en mycket tveksam metodologi för att utvärdera effekterna. Ett problem är att man kan ifrågasätta om länderna verkligen kan dra nytta av sänkta handelsbarriärer från en dag till en annan eftersom det rimligen tar tid att ändra produktionsstrukturer och sätta sig in i nya regelverk. Ett annat problem är att de flesta handelspreferensprogram funnits i 40-50 år, vilket innebär att man alltså i praktiken utvärderar vilken effekt det hade när länderna fick tillgång till preferenserna så tidigt som på 1960-talet. Eftersom vi i vårt projekt istället studerar vad som händer när utvecklingsländer lämnar preferensprogrammen så hävdar vi att vi mycket lättare kan utvärdera vilken effekt handelspreferenserna haft.

Focusing primarily on Sub-Saharan Africa, we intend to investigate the nature of the new forms of development cooperation, its distributional consequences and the challenges it brings in terms of governance, within as well as across countries. Doing so, we will highlight sources of inequity that needs addressing and how to best organize development cooperation so as to ensure aid effectiveness in the world?s poorest region. In the first part of the project we will characterize the new aid patterns and build a database incorporating the new aid flows and actors not included in existing data materials. In the second and third parts of the project we will investigate the distributional consequences of the new forms of aid and the governance challenges it brings, both within recipient countries and in terms of multi- and bilateral development cooperation. The empirical investigations will thus involve compiling and analyzing data on aid flows, coupled with macro and micro level data on inequality patterns and records of the implementation of specific aid projects. Det internationella utvecklingssamarbetet har genomgått stora förändringar under det senaste årtiondet. Nya biståndsaktörer, nya finansieringskällor och nya former för utvecklingssamarbete har fått en allt större roll i utvecklingssamarbete. Samtidigt som de traditionella givarna i väst har fått sällskap av nya givarländer som Kina och Indien kombineras nu i allt större utsträckning traditionellt bistånd med privata biståndsflöden, exportkrediter och investeringar. Mot bakgrund av dessa förändrade förutsättningar finns ett stort behov av en ny analys av utvecklingssamarbetets effekter och utmaningar. Det övergripande syftat med detta projekt är att undersöka på vilket sätt det biståndspolitiska landskapet har förändrats och vad det har fått för följder. Med fokus på Afrika söder om Sahara avser vi studera hur utvecklingssamarbetet förändrats under det senaste årtiondet, samt undersöka vilka utmaningar och konsekvenser dessa förändringar innebär för samhällsstyrning och fördelning. Den planerade forskningen kan delas in i tre delar. I ett första steg undersöker vi hur utvecklingssamarbetets struktur och karaktär förändrats. Detta kommer innefatta en kartläggning av nya biståndsaktörer, samarbetsformer och biståndsflöden - information som i vissa fall är svårtillgänglig och ännu inte finns i ett samlat datamaterial. I projektets andra del fokuserar vi på det nya biståndets fördelning mellan länder - enligt vilka principer de nya givarna fördelar sitt bistånd och vilka mottagarländer som gynnats (/missgynnats) av det förändrade biståndslandskapet - samt i vilken utsträckning det ligger i linje med de internationella riktlinjer för ökad biståndseffektivitet (Paris-agendan). I projektets sista del analyserar vi förhållandena inom afrikanska mottagarländer. Precis som i projektets föregående del ligger fokus på det nya biståndets konsekvenser för samhällsstyrning och fördelning, men nu avseende fördelning och styre inom snarare än mellan länder. Huvudfrågan är i vilken utsträckning det nya biståndet når den stora massan eller tillfaller redan relativt välbemedlade grupper, dvs. om det avhjälper eller bidrar till ojämlikhet inom mottagarländer. En viktig del i denna analys är att studera hur samhällsstyrningen påverkas av de nya flödena och hur den påverkar utfallet. För att kunna tackla den fattigdom och de ojämlikheter som existerar i många länder söder om Sahara behöver makthavare i givar- och mottagar-länder en tydlig bild av dagens utvecklingssamarbete och dess konsekvenser.

För att kunna tackla den fattigdom och de ojämlikheter som existerar i många länder söder om Sahara behöver makthavare i givar- och mottagar-länder en tydlig bild av dagens utvecklingssamarbete och dess konsekvenser. Våra studier syftar till att undersöka just detta. Genom att belysa det förändrade biståndslandskapet, dess fördelningskonsekvenser och de utmaningar det medför för samhällsstyrning inom och mellan länder hoppas vi bidra till en ökad kunskap om hur man bäst uppnår ett effektivt och rättvist utvecklingssamarbete.

Owning to climate change the problem will harden in near future We propose application of beneficial native soil bacteria to increase crop drought tolerance and nutrient use. The bacteria were isolated from harsh environments in Israel and Arizona and developed for field application in Egypt. Our recent studies reveal five times greater survival and 78% higher biomass in inoculated plants under drought stress using the bacterial consortia from the harsh environments. To the best of our knowledge, such a strong improvement of drought tolerance by bacterial inoculation has not been reported before. In frame of the proposed project we prepare legal documents and optimise the bacterial beneficial effect via development of the tagging and monitoring system for the bacterial consortia and their active principles. This kind of precision management will enable us to follow the performance of the bacterial consortia under field applications.

Torka tillsammans med lågt näringsanvändnings effektivitet är ett stort problem i det Etiopiska jordbruket och leder ofta till stora skördeförluster fattigdomen i landet Problemet är särskilt relevant eftersom den globala utvecklingen tyder på att olika abiotiska stressituationer för växter kommer att öka framöver på grund av klimatförändringar. Vi föreslår här en studie för att öka växternas tolerans mot olika stressituationer genom användning av markorganismer som kan öka grödornas tolerans mot stressfaktorer, särskilt torka och fosforbrist. Användning av naturligt förekommande jordmikroorganismer med positiv inverkan på växternas tillväxt och hälsa är ett attraktivt alternativ till konventionella jordbruksmetoder. Sådana mikroorganismer kan underlätta växternas vatten- och näringsupptag, samt kan motverka flera olika typer av stress som kan drabba växter. De positiva effekterna som många av dessa mikroorganismer har på växter förmedlas av en rad mekanismer, inklusive förbättrat upptag av mineralnäring, förbättring av plantornas tolerans mot biologisk och icke biologisk stress, modifiering av rotutveckling samt hämning av jordburna sjukdomar. De bakteriella egenskaper som är inblandade i dessa aktiviteter inkluderar kvävefixering, upplösning av fosfater, bindning av järn, syntes av fytohormoner, anpassning av växtens etylennivåer samt kontroll av fytopatogena mikroorganismer. Det är känt att vissa bakterier i rotzonen har utvecklats tillsammans med växtrötter i under årtusenden och flera system i växter och bakterier är kända för att ha utvecklat system som utlöser tillgängliga resurser och initierar metabolisk tillväxt vilket behövs i olika stressituationer. På så sätt reglerar energikänsliga system genuttrycken på många nivåer för att tillåta flexibilitet i växternas omfattande stressförsvar. Moderna växtsorter har förlorat många viktiga genetiska förmågor för anpassning till biologiska och abiotiska stressfaktorer vilka annars finns naturligt i vilda arter och populationer. Därför inkluderar vårt system vilt korn Hordeum spontaneum från naturlaboratoriet Vi har under de senaste åren utvecklat en metod för användning av markmikroorganismer för att öka torktolerans i stråsäd odlad under kontrollerade förhållanden och i Egyptiska fält. I det föreslagna projektet vill vi utveckla denna teknik för användning i Etiopiska fälten. Vi kommer att utvärdera mikroorganismernas effekt på fosforupptag och torktolerans hos Etiopiska sorter av vete, korn och tef. Särskild fokus ligger på förbättrad kommunikation av metodutvecklingen mellan forskare i Sverige och Etiopien, och medpotentiella användare av metoden i Etiopien.

Dengue är en virussjukdom som sprids till människor från myggor och som beror på vädermönster. Det finns idag inget vaccin mot dengue, och förbyggande åtgärder riktas mot att förhindra myggornas utbredning och på så sätt epidemier. Många icke-klimatrelaterade faktorer, så som, grad av immunitet i befolkningen, åtgärder mot myggorna, och introduktion av nya och svårare virusstammar bidrar också till epidemiernas mönster. Trots detta finns det tydliga samband med klimatet, och spridningsmönstret av dengue. Detta beror bland annat på inverkan av klimatet på myggornas livscykel, och inkubationsperiod. Ett flertal studier av forskare från Umeå Universitet har visat på starka positiva samband mellan dengue epidemier och föregående meteorologiska förhållanden med en fördröjning av upp till 20 veckor. Forskarna har visat på en förmåga att predicera utbrott av dengue genom att bland annat använda klimatinformation. Över dom senaste två decennierna har dengue ökat och blivit ett folkhälsoproblem i Malaysia. Landet har därför implementerat ett flertal strategier för att kontrollera utbredningen och utbrott av dengue. Bland annat använder man system som tidigt registrerar och förespår utbrott genom att titta på insjuknande graden, och övervakning av myggornas populationsdynamik. Detta kan ge utrymme för handling upp till någon månad innan ett utbrott. Trots dessa kontrollåtgärder, ökar ständigt insjuknandet och epidemier blir vanligare. En orsaks tros vara att kontrollåtgärderna sätts in i ett för sent skede, och att man därför inte har tillräckligt lång tid för att planera och utföra kontrollåtgärderna. Det finns idag inget varningssystem som kan ge förvarningar med längre tid för förberedelser för att utföra åtgärderna. Syftet med det här projektet är att stärka forskningskapaciteten och kompetensen i Malaysia för att möjliggöra utveckling och implementering av klimatkänsliga sjukdomar så som dengue. Workshops, seminarier och möten planeras därför för utbyte av kunskap och för att stärka kapaciteten i Malaysia för uppbyggande av prediktioner av epidemier, samt ekonomiska utredningar av kostnadseffektiviteten, och utvecklingen av ett automatiserat varningssystem. Möten och besök mellan ansvariga för kontrollåtgärder och beslutsfattare syftar till att förbättra detta genom partnerskap med forskare vid Umeå Universitet.

De nötkreatur som de spanska kolonisatörerna förde med sig till Bolivia i mitten av 1500-talet, har sedan dess utvecklats till vad som kallas Creol-raser. Dessa djur bredde snabbt ut sig över högplatån och vidare in i dalgångarna Cochabamba (Pasorapa), Potosí, Tarija och Chuquisaca. Den goda tillgången på bete, avsaknad av större rovdjur och att djuren var mycket anpassningsbara gjorde att antalet djur kunde öka snabbt i området. Djurhållningen spelar en mycket viktig roll för människors levnadsförhållande och ekonomi på landsbygden i Pasorapa.

Pasorapa med omnejd utgör ett av de sista områden där det fortfarande finns en rimligt stor population av creol-nötkreatur i Sydamerika. Eftersom rasen utvecklats under lång tid tämligen isolerat och till stor del utan artificiell selektion, utgör den en intressant biologisk modell. På grund av sin historia kan rasen bära på unika gener som bidrar till dess förmåga att tåla det hårda klimatet och produktionsförhållandena i regionen. Därför kan den också utgöra en genresurs för användning (genom inkorsning) i andra raser som kan behöva nya gener för t ex sjukdomsresistens eller torktålighet. På så vis kan ett bevarande och vidareutvecklande av creol-rasen i Pasorapa med omnejd vara viktig inte bara för att förbättra levnadsförhållandena och ekonomin för landsbygdsbefolkningen i området, utan också för människor i andra delar av Bolivia och Sydamerika, samt för andra nötkreatursraser såväl i Bolivia som i andra länder, där torrperioder och dålig tillgång till foder utgör begränsningar.

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. Enligt de senaste internationella studierna hotas mellan en tredjedel till hälften av världens cirka 6000 amfibiska arter av utrotning inom de kommande årtionden. Orsaken ligger i en kombination av faktorer såsom klimatförändringar, förlust av livsmiljö, miljöförstörelse samt biotiska hot i form av svamp- och virusinfektioner, exempelvis orsakade av Ambystoma tigrinum (ATV). Experter inom bevarandebiologi jämställer det aktuella kritiska tillståndet för amfibiska arters överlevnad med utrotningen av dinosaurierna. Mexiko utgör en av de fem länder i världen med högst biodiversitet. Fler än 300 amfibiska arter lever här, varav 128 är inhemska för Mexiko. Majoriteten av dessa arter skyddas genom nationella lagar men trots det är fyra arter (Ambystoma dumerilii, A. lermaense, A. mexicanum and Bufo retiformis) allvarligt utrotningshotade. Tre av dessa allvarligt hotade arter tillhör genus Ambystoma (vanliga salamandrar) som till fullo består av 32 arter varav 16 är inhemska för Mexiko och vid olika risknivå för utrotning. För att bidra till bevarandet av dessa värdefulla arter har vi som målsättning att utröna hur den genetiska och molekylära responsen hos Ambystoma mexicanum och Ambystoma velasci ter sig när dem utsätts för ATV-infektion. Tidigare experimentellt data tyder på att viruset triggar igång en ackumulering av Polo-like kinase (Plk) som aktiverar reglerande proteinkinaskomplex inom CYCLIN/CDK-cellcykeln. Dessa komplex kan fosforylera och därigenom modulera retinoblastoma tumörrepressorproteinet pRB som är en avgörande regulator av cellprolifiering. pRB spelar även en viktig roll i att bibehålla balansen mellan celldelning och differentiering hos flercelliga organismer. Vi avser undersöka hur pRB-CYCLIN/CDK-mekanismen fungerar hos salamandrar med ATV-infektion.

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. Enligt de senaste internationella studierna hotas mellan en tredjedel till hälften av världens cirka 6000 amfibiska arter av utrotning inom de kommande årtionden. Orsaken ligger i en kombination av faktorer såsom klimatförändringar, förlust av livsmiljö, miljöförstörelse samt biotiska hot i form av svamp- och virusinfektioner, exempelvis orsakade av Ambystoma tigrinum (ATV). Experter inom bevarandebiologi jämställer det aktuella kritiska tillståndet för amfibiska arters överlevnad med utrotningen av dinosaurierna. Mexiko utgör en av de fem länder i världen med högst biodiversitet. Fler än 300 amfibiska arter lever här, varav 128 är inhemska för Mexiko. Majoriteten av dessa arter skyddas genom nationella lagar men trots det är fyra arter (Ambystoma dumerilii, A. lermaense, A. mexicanum and Bufo retiformis) allvarligt utrotningshotade. Tre av dessa allvarligt hotade arter tillhör genus Ambystoma (vanliga salamandrar) som till fullo består av 32 arter varav 16 är inhemska för Mexiko och vid olika risknivå för utrotning. För att bidra till bevarandet av dessa värdefulla arter har vi som målsättning att utröna hur den genetiska och molekylära responsen hos Ambystoma mexicanum och Ambystoma velasci ter sig när dem utsätts för ATV-infektion. Tidigare experimentellt data tyder på att viruset triggar igång en ackumulering av Polo-like kinase (Plk) som aktiverar reglerande proteinkinaskomplex inom CYCLIN/CDK-cellcykeln. Dessa komplex kan fosforylera och därigenom modulera retinoblastoma tumörrepressorproteinet pRB som är en avgörande regulator av cellprolifiering. pRB spelar även en viktig roll i att bibehålla balansen mellan celldelning och differentiering hos flercelliga organismer.

We will do this by introducing Metal-Organic Frameworks, new solid-state network compounds of interest in many chemical engineering applications. The short-term aims of this project are: 1. Produce enantiomerically pure MOFs base on amino acid derived tri-connecting ligands and evaluate these for chiral separations and catalysis. The chosen ligands will not only impose local chirality but may also impose a topological chirality on the network. Advances in this area are likely to be significant as previous work is limited, especially topological chirality has largely been neglected. 2. Produce amine functionalised MOFs of the same kind that will selectively sorb [MClx]-y complexes of precious metals by attaching amine groups in precise positions on the framework that will trap the chloride anions in-between them with size-selection. Any results reported here will be significant as this application has not been considered before. It is expected that during the project one or two suitable natural products targets for further derivatisation or enantioselective separation and perhaps commercial development will be found. MOFs for sequestering or sensing metal ions should be of interest for Botswana?s considerable metal mining industry (copper, nickel, gold). Organo-metalliska ramverksföreningar är en typ av nanoporösa material, som innehåller kanaler och tomrum i nanostorlek, men som vad gäller partikelstorlek inte är nano, utan skulle kunna vara membran eller solida material. Två potentiella tillämpningar av sådana material är katalys och separation. Det senare av såväl organiska som oorganiska föreningar och joner. Vi eftersträvar efter nätverk som är kirala. Kirala system bygger på molekyler vars spegelbilder inte är identiska med sig själva, som höger och vänsterhänder. Vi planerar att bygga våra system baserade på de naturligt förkommande aminosyrorna som alla är kirala. Eftersom proteinernas naturliga aminosyror i sig är kirala, liksom makromolekyler som DNA och RNA, är det viktigt att läkemedelsmolekyler tillverkas i rätt spegelbildsform, s.k. enantiomer. Det finns två sätt att göra detta på, antingen ser man till att bara en enantiomer produceras i syntesen av läkemedelsmolekyler, eller så gör man bägge och separerar sedan den önskade från den oönskade. Kirala tredimensionella nätverksföreningar kan i princip användas på båda sätten, vi kan tänka oss olika typer av katalys inne i kanalerna, där bara en enantiomer bildas, eller att vi filtrerar bägge enantiomererna genom nätverket som då bara håller kvar den ena spegelbildsmolekylen. I och med detta är också enantiomererna var för sig mer värda än en blandning av dem. Att sila eller fånga in små metalljoner låter sig också göras i våra system och vi vill utveckla selektiva material som ska kunna fånga upp och anrika låga halter av ädelmetalljoner. Samarbetet med Botswana handlar om att skapa en förberedelse för att använda denna nya kemiteknik i landet för att ta hand om landets naturresurser på bästa sätt.

Sweden targets to become the world´s first oil-free economy before 2020 by replacing fossil fuel consumption. Hydrogen can be playing a key role in achieving the zero-oil goal of this country and most of the transport companies in this region will be immensely benefitted from it. The present proposal aims at understanding the fundamental catalytic pathways of water splitting on metallic nanoclusters, their alloys and perovskites materials to generate Hydrogen in a systematic manner. Nanoparticles have become promising candidates for efficient heterogeneous catalysis in recent years due to their high surface to volume ratio. The important demarcation between studying reactions on a finite cluster compared to a periodic infinite surface is that clusters often present chemically active coordination sites, which are not present on an extended surface. Nanoalloys have the potential due to the synergic effect and the rich diversity of possible components. One can tune the size, compositions and chemical ordering to control physical, chemical and catalytic properties. The peculiar surface and bulk geometries, different chemical ordering, and the determination of chemisorption sites on nanoalloys make theoretical and computational studies both challenging and exciting. För trettio år sedan ansåg man att vårt moderna samhälle styrdes främst av tre teknologier, nämligen material, energi och information. Denna vision är idag förverkligad till en högre grad. Interaktion av väte med material har varit ett ämne av intresse för mer än ett sekel. Medan det tidiga intresset för väte motiverades av de skadliga effekterna, t.ex. på den mekaniska stabiliteten hos materialen, den senaste tidens intresse för väte härstammar från hoppet om att det kan användas som ett alternativ till fossila bränslen. Därutöver är väte det enklaste och lättaste elementet i det periodiska systemet. Notera, att nästan 80 % av den totala energiförsörjning och 70 % av den totala elförsörjningen är beroende på olja, kol och naturgas. Nästan 75 % av oljeförbrukningen går åt till att möta behoven av transportindustrin. Förutom den miljömässiga oron för koldioxidutsläpp och den globala uppvärmningen, den begränsade tillgången på dessa naturresurser och den växande globala efterfrågan på energi gör det nödvändigt att vi söker alternativa energikällor som är säkra, trygga, flödande och avgasfria. Därför ökar intresset att studera vätgas eftersom det är den tredje vanligaste grundämnet på jorden och producerar vatten vid förbränning. Men det finns stora hinder att övervinna innan vätgas kan anses vara ett lönsamt alternativ för att möta dem stora och växande energibehoven i världen. Det finns redan flera industriella sätt att producera och lagra vätgas för användning i bränsleceller utvecklad i jakten på denna hållbara vätgasekonomi. Det främsta hindret för vätebaserad ekonomi är att bekväm och tillförlitligt sätt att producera och lagra väte med enkelt sätt att frigöra det vid behov saknas för närvarande. Sverige siktar att bli världens första oljefria ekonomi före 2020 genom att ersätta sin förbrukning av fossila bränslen med förnybar energi. Vätgas kan spela en viktig roll för att uppnå oljefritt Sverige och de flesta svenska transportföretag som Volvo, SAAB och SAS kommer att få oerhörd nytta av detta miljövänliga bränsle. Därför är effektiv produktion och lagring av väte oumbärliga för att ta nytta av vätgasekonomin.

The present proposal aims at understanding the fundamental catalytic pathways of water splitting on metallic nanoclusters, their alloys and perovskites materials to generate Hydrogen in a systematic manner. Nanoparticles have become promising candidates for efficient heterogeneous catalysis in recent years due to their high surface to volume ratio. The important demarcation between studying reactions on a finite cluster compared to a periodic infinite surface is that clusters often present chemically active coordination sites, which are not present on an extended surface. Nanoalloys have the potential due to the synergic effect and the rich diversity of possible components. One can tune the size, compositions and chemical ordering to control physical, chemical and catalytic properties. The peculiar surface and bulk geometries, different chemical ordering, and the determination of chemisorption sites on nanoalloys make theoretical and computational studies both challenging and exciting. För trettio år sedan ansåg man att vårt moderna samhälle styrdes främst av tre teknologier, nämligen material, energi och information. Denna vision är idag förverkligad till en högre grad. Interaktion av väte med material har varit ett ämne av intresse för mer än ett sekel. Medan det tidiga intresset för väte motiverades av de skadliga effekterna, t.ex. på den mekaniska stabiliteten hos materialen, den senaste tidens intresse för väte härstammar från hoppet om att det kan användas som ett alternativ till fossila bränslen. Därutöver är väte det enklaste och lättaste elementet i det periodiska systemet. Notera, att nästan 80 % av den totala energiförsörjning och 70 % av den totala elförsörjningen är beroende på olja, kol och naturgas. Nästan 75 % av oljeförbrukningen går åt till att möta behoven av transportindustrin. Förutom den miljömässiga oron för koldioxidutsläpp och den globala uppvärmningen, den begränsade tillgången på dessa naturresurser och den växande globala efterfrågan på energi gör det nödvändigt att vi söker alternativa energikällor som är säkra, trygga, flödande och avgasfria. Därför ökar intresset att studera vätgas eftersom det är den tredje vanligaste grundämnet på jorden och producerar vatten vid förbränning. Men det finns stora hinder att övervinna innan vätgas kan anses vara ett lönsamt alternativ för att möta dem stora och växande energibehoven i världen. Det finns redan flera industriella sätt att producera och lagra vätgas för användning i bränsleceller utvecklad i jakten på denna hållbara vätgasekonomi. Det främsta hindret för vätebaserad ekonomi är att bekväm och tillförlitligt sätt att producera och lagra väte med enkelt sätt att frigöra det vid behov saknas för närvarande. Sverige siktar att bli världens första oljefria ekonomi före 2020 genom att ersätta sin förbrukning av fossila bränslen med förnybar energi. Vätgas kan spela en viktig roll för att uppnå oljefritt Sverige och de flesta svenska transportföretag som Volvo, SAAB och SAS kommer att få oerhörd nytta av detta miljövänliga bränsle. Därför är effektiv produktion och lagring av väte oumbärliga för att ta nytta av vätgasekonomin.

ETEC gives rise to watery diarrhea, causing 400 000 deaths/year, primarily in young children. LMIC children are also often chronically infected with Hp and in 15-20% of cases, the infection causes symptoms later in life such as peptic ulcers or gastric cancer. Our recent results suggest that CD4+ T helper cells, particularly those that secrete the cytokine IL-17A (Th17), play important roles in promoting protective immune mechanisms in both infections. The overall aim of this project is to advance the knowledge we have recently gained on Th17 responses in different model systems to human ETEC and Hp infection. This includes (I) to characterize T helper cell responses to these infections in humans and (II) to study the functional capacity of novel mucosal vaccine adjuvants to enhance human CD4+ T helper cell responses. This collaborative project, performed at the University of Gothenburg and the International Center for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh, will benefit from the combined expertise of the applicants, including broad knowledge in techniques for analyzing T cell responses and extensive experience of studies of mucosal immunity in LMIC. The project also aims to establish a framework for mutual learning and training of PhD students and younger scientists at both sites, forming a basis for extended future collaboration. Studier av hur T-celler i immunförsvaret kan bidra till skydd mot diarré- och magsårsbakterier Bakteriella infektioner är mycket vanliga i låg- och medelinkomstländer och orsakar mycket sjukdom och lidande och även många dödsfall i dessa delar av världen. Två bakterier som är vanligt förekommande är enterotoxinbildande E. coli (ETEC) och Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) som ger upphov till olika typer av hälsoproblem. ETEC orsakar akut diarre´ och denna infektion har visas ge upphov till ca 400 miljoner diarré-episoder och ca 400,000 dödsfall årligen hos barn under 5 år i låg- och medelinkomstländer. ETEC är också den vanligaste orsaken till så kallad turistdiarre´. Studier har visat att en majoritet av barn i fattigare delar av världen, såsom Bangladesh och Indien, infekteras med H. pylori före två års ålder. H. pylori-infektion är kronisk och 15-20% av de infekterade individerna utvecklar symptom såsom dyspepsi, magsår eller magcancer senare i livet. Trots att dessa två bakterieinfektioner är så viktiga orsaker till sjukdom och död hos både barn och vuxna finns det fortfarande inga vacciner mot dessa infektioner. Vi har studerat hur immunsystemet kan skydda oss mot ETEC och H. pylori-infektion. Vi har nyligen funnit att en speciell typ av T-celler som hjälper andra celler i immunförsvaret att bekämpa infektioner verkar ha stor betydelse för hur skyddande immunsvar mot dessa infektioner utvecklas. T-hjälpar celler som producerar signalämnet IL-17A (en sk cytokin) verkar ha särskilt stor betydelse för infektionsskyddet. I experimentella studier har vi funnit att en ny immunförstärkande substans som ges tillsammans med vacciner, sk vaccinadjuvans, kan förstärka funktionen hos dessa hjälpar T-celler. Ökad produktion av IL-17A leder till att neutrofiler som kan äta upp bakterierna lockas till infekterad slemhinna och ökar produktionen av antikroppar och andra antimikrobiella substanser som kan hjälpa immunsystemet att försvara sig mot infektionerna. Målet med detta forskningsprojekt är att öka förståelsen för hur dessa hjälpar T-celler fungerar i immunförsvaret mot H. pylori och ETEC-infektion hos människa. Vi vill studera förekomst och funktion hos dessa celler i blod och slemhinna hos infekterade personer. Vi vill även vidare undersöka den funktionella förmågan hos två nya vaccinadjuvans att förstärka funktionen hos hjälpar T-celler från människa och framför allt den typ av T-celler som producerar IL-17A. Ökad kunskap om hjälpar T-cellernas funktion och hur denna kan påverkas med hjälp av adjuvans kan utnyttjas vid utveckling av nya vacciner mot ETEC och H. pylori-infektion som för närvarande pågår vid Göteborg universitet.

Ett viktigt mål med projektet är att etablera en bas för vetenskaplig träning för yngre forskare och doktorander vid de två samarbetande forskningscentren.

The study period for the trial was completed in September 2013. Preliminary results indicate a 53% reduction of intra-partum stillbirths and considerable improvements in the quality of delivery care. Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP), which have commissioned UNICEF to scale up the HBB intervention at 40 district hospitals. We plan to design a series of research studies investigating different approaches on the implementation of QoC enhancing interventions.

Denna ansökan syftar till att stärka forskningssamarbetet mellan Uppsala universitet och Patan Academy of Health Sciences i Nepal. Tillsammans med UNICEF planeras en stor interventionsstudie för förbättrad vårdkvalité inom mödra- och barnhälsovården i Nepal. Trots stora framsteg med minskad barnadödlighet i världen kvarstår utmaningen att förbättra överlevnaden för de ofödda och nyfödda barnen. Dödsfallen i samband med förlossning är alltjämt oacceptabelt många globalt sett och förlossningsvården behöver förbättras. Handläggningen vid förlossningen påverkar inte bara överlevnaden utan även barnets hälsostatus långt upp i åldrarna. Utbildningsinsatser inom neonatal återupplivning, temperaturkontroll och goda hygienrutiner är enkla och kostnadseffektiva metoder för att förbättra överlevnaden och skapa goda förutsättningar för det nyfödda barnet att växa och utvecklas. Kunskapen om vad som behöver göras finns, men frågan är hur man implementerar denna kunskap. Hur förändrar man rutiner och praxis och hur ökar man följsamheten till existerande vårdprogram och riktlinjer inom hälso- och sjukvården? Audit är en kvalitetsförbättringsmetod som använts med framgång inom flera komplexa versioner, så även i sjukhusmiljö. Metoden går i korthet ut på att vårdpersonal uppmuntras att på ett strukturerat sätt reflektera över sin arbetssituation, de rutiner och den praxis som råder. Det finns många olika strategier för audit, till exempel att utgå från verkliga kliniska fall och gå igenom vad som hände och identifiera områden som skulle kunna förbättras, eller att tillsammans i arbetslaget gå igenom rutiner och få feedback på det arbete som utförs. Perinatal audit, som fokuserar på handläggningen av mamma och barn i anslutning till förlossning har i flera studier visat goda effekter på mammors och barns överlevnad. För att en audit-process ska vara framgångsrik krävs dock att klimatet, eller kontexten, på arbetsplatsen är gynnsam och främjar förändring. Kontextuella faktorer som samarbetsklimat, feedback-rutiner och tillgängliga resurser spelar en avgörande roll när nya interventioner och förbättringsåtgärder introduceras. En kontextuell faktor som har en avgörande betydelse är ledarskapet. Ledarskapets karaktär och auktoritet påverkar starkt och är många gånger avgörande för ett projekts framgång, vare sig det handlar om att introducera ny teknik eller att förändra rådande rutiner. Vi föreslår i denna ansökan en interventionsstudie på 40 distriktssjukhus i Nepal. Målet är att med en kombinerad intervention förbättra förlossningsvården och därmed den perinatala överlevnaden. Interventionsstudien kommer att ske på distriktssjukhus på landsbygden i Nepal tillsammans med Patan Academy of Health Sciences, Nepal Medical Research Council och UNICEF. Interventionspaketet kommer att introduceras i flera steg med randomiserad start.

Screening based on analysis of so called PAP-smears has proven very effective in reducing cancer mortality. Systematic screening is still not offered in most parts of the world due to cost and lack of cytotechnologists, leading to many unnecessary early deaths. This project aims at establishing a long lasting collaboration between research groups at Uppsala University and at University of Novi Sad, Serbia, with a primary goal to improve image analysis methods for cervical cancer diagnostics. By increasing reliability of automatic analysis, and allowing usage of less expensive microscopes and staining protocols, we will significantly contribute to the implementation of cost effective screening programs in developing countries. Advances in cytopathology have put focus on the analysis of very subtle changes in the chromatin structure of cell nuclei. Prof. Bengtsson´s group is among world leaders in this field. The objects of interest, chromatin particles in the cell nuclei, are close to the resolution limit of light microscopy and maximal usage of information in acquired images is paramount. Methods for robust and precise image analysis, developed by the group of Dr Sladoje, are most suitable for this task and initial tests have shown great potential. Adjustment of those methods to the analysis of chromatin distributions in cell nuclei is a challenging, but also very promising and rewarding task. Livmoderhalscancer är inte bara en av de vanligaste cancerformerna bland kvinnor utan också en typ av cancer som drabbar relativt unga kvinnor, ofta före 40 års ålder. I hela världen dör årligen omkring en kvarts miljon kvinnor i denna sjukdom, detta trots att den går att nästan helt förhindra genom tidig upptäckt av cancerns förstadier vid granskning av cellprover från gynekologisk hälsokontroll. I Sverige och många andra västländer har man sedan 1960-talet erbjudit sådan hälsokontroll, vilket mycket kraftigt har minskat dödligheten i livmoderhalscancer. Denna typ av granskning är dock mycket arbetskrävande och kostsam, och kräver välutbildad personal som i mikroskop letar efter och känner igen de cellförändringar som kan indikera cancer. På grund av bristande resurser så erbjuds inte regelbunden kontroll till det stora flertalet kvinnor i låg- och medelinkomstländer, och ett stort antal kvinnor dör därför av cancer helt i onödan. Även om HPV vaccinering nu införs i allt större omfattning i den rika världen så kommer det att ta ungefär 20 år innan vi kan vänta oss de första effekterna av detta; under minst den tiden, men förmodligen längre än så, är billig, bra och tillgänglig cellprovskontroll jätteviktigt för världens kvinnor. Vi vill med det här projektet knyta samman forskare från Uppsala Universitet med forskare från Universitet i Novi Sad, Serbien, för att med gemensamma insatser utveckla och förbättra metoder för att med datorstöd göra cancerdiagnostiken snabbare, billigare och säkrare, och därigenom nå ut till en avsevärt större andel av jordens kvinnor än vad som är möjligt med dagens metoder. Redan idag finns ett fåtal system för datorstödd cancerdiagnos. Tyvärr så är dessa system mycket dyra i drift och beroende av dyrbar utrustning och personal, vilket hindar dess användning i låginkomstländer. Vi vill ta fram metoder som fungerar med billigare mikroskop och som fungerar med vanliga infärgningsmetoder, som dagens doktorer är vana med, inte bara med dyra specialfärger. Vid Centrum för Bildanalys i Uppsala har vi under många år forskat på metoder för billig och effektiv cellbildsanalys, och många av de svåraste problemen är redan lösta. Under de senaste åren så har vi visat att det går bra att lära en dator att ställa en pålitlig cancerdiagnos, ifall man bara har tillräckligt bra och tydliga bilder, där sådant som skärpa och infärgning inte skiljer sig allt för mycket mellan olika preparat. Vi har bland annat demonstrerat att genom att noggrant mäta hur DNA fördelar sig i cellkärnan är det möjligt att skilja på friska celler och cancerförstadier. Tyvärr är det mycket svårt och dyrt att bygga system som garanterar perfekta bilder. Ett alternativ är att forska fram bättre metoder, som klarar av att hantera de variationer som finns. Det har dock visat sig väldigt besvärligt att få mätmetoderna tillräckligt tåliga mot variationer i bilderna men samtidigt känsliga nog att hitta de små detaljer som skiljer normala celler från onormala. Vi behöver ytterligare kunskap om hur man kan göra dagens metoder mer robusta och pålitliga. Dr Nata?a Sladoje vid universitetet i Novi Sad har lång erfarenhet av metoder för noggrann och robust mätning av egenskaper i bilder. De senaste åren har hon visat i olika vetenskapliga arbeten hur man kan göra många metoder inom bildanalys säkrare och mer noggranna. Genom att arbeta tillsammans med henne och hennes kollegor i det här projektet så hoppas vi kunna utveckla bättre metoder för att granska cellprover, på ett så pålitligt och kostnadseffektivt sätt att automatiserad gynekologisk hälsokontroll kan få genomslag i hela världen. Vi jobbar på att skapa ett långsiktigt och hållbart samarbete mellan våra två universitet. Vi planerar att både doktorander och mer seniora forskare skall besöka varandras forskargrupper, och utbyta erfarenheter och idéer. Vi kommer att organisera gemensamma workshops och seminarier där vi i detalj kan arbeta igenom metoder och utvärdera våra resultat.

Tyvärr så är dessa system mycket dyra i drift och beroende av dyrbar utrustning och personal, vilket hindar dess användning i låginkomstländer. Vi vill ta fram metoder som fungerar med billigare mikroskop och som fungerar med vanliga infärgningsmetoder, som dagens doktorer är vana med, inte bara med dyra specialfärger. Vid Centrum för Bildanalys i Uppsala har vi under många år forskat på metoder för billig och effektiv cellbildsanalys, och många av de svåraste problemen är redan lösta. Under de senaste åren så har vi visat att det går bra att lära en dator att ställa en pålitlig cancerdiagnos, ifall man bara har tillräckligt bra och tydliga bilder, där sådant som skärpa och infärgning inte skiljer sig allt för mycket mellan olika preparat. Vi har bland annat demonstrerat att genom att noggrant mäta hur DNA fördelar sig i cellkärnan är det möjligt att skilja på friska celler och cancerförstadier. Tyvärr är det mycket svårt och dyrt att bygga system som garanterar perfekta bilder. Ett alternativ är att forska fram bättre metoder, som klarar av att hantera de variationer som finns. Det har dock visat sig väldigt besvärligt att få mätmetoderna tillräckligt tåliga mot variationer i bilderna men samtidigt känsliga nog att hitta de små detaljer som skiljer normala celler från onormala. Vi behöver ytterligare kunskap om hur man kan göra dagens metoder mer robusta och pålitliga. Dr Nata?a Sladoje vid universitetet i Novi Sad har lång erfarenhet av metoder för noggrann och robust mätning av egenskaper i bilder. De senaste åren har hon visat i olika vetenskapliga arbeten hur man kan göra många metoder inom bildanalys säkrare och mer noggranna. Genom att arbeta tillsammans med henne och hennes kollegor i det här projektet så hoppas vi kunna utveckla bättre metoder för att granska cellprover, på ett så pålitligt och kostnadseffektivt sätt att automatiserad gynekologisk hälsokontroll kan få genomslag i hela världen. Vi jobbar på att skapa ett långsiktigt och hållbart samarbete mellan våra två universitet. Vi planerar att både doktorander och mer seniora forskare skall besöka varandras forskargrupper, och utbyta erfarenheter och idéer. Vi kommer att organisera gemensamma workshops och seminarier där vi i detalj kan arbeta igenom metoder och utvärdera våra resultat.

Malaria puts a heavy burden on the economic progress of the afflicted countries, especially in the low-income strata of those societies. Despite the severity of the problem, global efforts to combat malaria remain minor, allegedly since this disease mostly affects developing countries, with limited economic power. No efficient malaria vaccine has been developed, and resistance existing antimalarial drugs is emerging. However, with the recent support of international charities, this may change. This project aims at identifying novel promising lead antimalarial compounds, with a special view to combat P. vivax, the major malaria-causing parasite in Latin America. Frontline techniques in yeast genomics will be used to identify the targets of molecules with antiplasmodial activity, and to improve the selectivity for the parasite ortholog of the target over the human counterpart. The Brazilian partners contribute knowledge about growth and genetic engineering of the malaria parasite, as well as of its pathogenesis and malaria epidemiology. The Swedish partners contribute high-throughput yeast genetic screening methodology and medicinal chemistry for redesign and development of leads. We intend to establish a long-lasting international collaboration in this field of great global importance. Malaria är ett svårt hot mot global hälsa. En halv miljon människor dör årligen i malaria, och denna sjukdom drabbar framför allt de fattigaste människorna i de fattigaste länderna. Små barn är särskilt utsatta och får ofta allvarligare sjukdomsförlopp än vuxna. Den negativa affekten av malaria på ett lands ekonomiska utveckling är betydande då sjukdomen innebär långa och upprepade sjukdomsperioder. För barn är detta allvarligt då det försvårar deras skolgång och på så sätt motverkar ekonomisk tillväxt genom höjd utbildningsnivå. Gravida kvinnor med malariainfektion löper ökad risk för blodbrist, för tidig födsel och missfall. Växthuseffekten kan påverka utbredningsområdet för malaria. Både malariaparasiten (Plasmodium) och myggan som sprider den (Anopheles) har strikta krav på mikroklimat för att kunna utvecklas. Med ökande temperaturer och ändrade nederbördsförhållanden kan malaria komma att uppträda i nya områden. Där träffar den på människor som tidigare inte varit exponerade för malaria, och därför inte har något immunförsvar mot den. Inget effektivt malariavaccin existerar, trots mångåriga ansträngningar. Mot de mest verksamma behandlingarna mot malaria; klorokin, artemisinin och pyrimetamin, har resistens hos malariaparasiten dykt upp i flera regioner i världen. Det finns alltså ett stort behov av nya antimalariamediciner. Vårt projekt, som är ett samarbete med brasilianska forskare, syftar till att hitta nya substanser för vidare utveckling mot antimalariapreparat. Vi har en pågående karakterisering av molekyler med potentiell aktivitet mot malaria, isolerade från traditionella medicinalväxter från östra Afrika. Vi vill utvärdera dem mot brasilianska stammar av Plasmodium för att se om dessa oprövade kombinationer kan ge god effektivitet. För sådana substanser, där man iakttar en effektivitet mot parasiten men inte känner till mekanismen, vill vi använda en genetisk screeningmetod i jäst, kallad kemogenomik. På så sätt kan vi identifiera målproteinet som substansen slår mot. Vi vill också tillverka nya syntetiska startsubstanser riktade mot kända målproteiner i denna process. I Brasilien, liksom i stora delar av resten av världen, är malaria orsakad av Plasmodium vivax den dominerande formen. Den ger ett mindre häftigt men å andra sidan mer långvarigt förlopp, ibland livslångt, än den mest omtalade formen, orsakade av P. falciparum. Det är svårare att studera P. vivax än P. falciparum eftersom man inte kan växa P. vivax kontinuerligt i laboratoriet, vilket lägger hinder i vägen för utveckling av terapi mot P. vivax. Vi vill därför använda en av oss nyutvecklad metod för att uttrycka proteiner från P. vivax i jäst, och mäta effektiviteten hos de substanser vi testar mot ett visst protein jämfört med motsvarande protein från människa. Genom denna jämförelse, som direkt kan avläsas med fluorescenta markörer i ett storskaligt system, kan vi snabbt söka igenom många substanser för att identifiera dem som slår ut parasitens protein utan att skada vårt eget. Vi kan sedan kemiskt modifiera sådana substanser för att göra dem mer lämpliga som läkemedelskandidater. I samarbetsprojektet bidrar de brasilianska forskarna med kunskap om hantering av malariaparasiten och hur man utvärderar läkemedels effektivitet mot den, dels in vitro, dels i musmodeller. De har också kontakter med kliniska malariaforskare med tillgång till patientmaterial. De svenska forskarna har kunskap om storskaliga genomikmetoder i jäst, och om läkemedelskemi.

Specifically, we will investigate how infant morbidity due to diarrheal disease is associated with rotavirus antibody, maternal antiretroviral treatment (ART) regimen and exclusive breastfeeding. Methods: Capacity building will be achieved through technology transfer from Sweden, on-site training and workshops at KEMRI and courses at Karolinska Institutet. Laboratory capabilities will be expanded to conduct assays of neutralizing antibodies against HIV and rotavirus. These assays will be run on infant specimens available from a previous Kenyan study and results linked to clinical details. Epidemiological models will be used to estimate how the risk of infant diarrheal disease depends on the interplay between passive immunity, maternal ART and breastfeeding. Significance: High-quality affordable laboratory tests and a core group of highly trained researchers will set the foundation for dissemination of Kenyan research capacity. Identification of neutralizing antibodies against HIV can help identify candidate vaccines. The findings on infant morbidity may suggest modifications in breastfeeding practice or ART, or additional booster vaccinations for infants of HIV-positive mothers. Uppbyggnad av kapacitet för att förstärka HIV-relaterad forskning i Kenya. The Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) är en statlig organisation som ansvarar för hälsoforskningen under Regeringens Hälsodepartement i Kenya. Institutet räknas som ett Center of Excellens och många KEMRI-forskare är involverade i internationella samarbeten där det pågår HIV-studier. Trots dessa framgångar är resurserna från lab- och klinikforskare vid KEMRI inte till fullo använda/utnyttjade och en ändamålsenlig uppbyggnad av kapaciteten kan göra det möjligt att mer högkvalitativt arbete kan utföras och ledas av forskare från Afrika. Kenyanska forskare bidrar stort till studien av spädbarn födda av mödrar som är HIV-positiva, denna studie inkluderar en nyligen genomförd undersökning/studie på hur vaccin-kandidater mot viruset stimmulerar immunsystemet att skydda spädbarnet från infektion. Den ökade tillgången av antivirala behandlingar har resulterat i en låg risk för virusöverföring av HIV från modern till spädbarnet. Men i Sub-Saharadelen av Afrika har spädbarn som klarat sig från HIV-smitta en 4-dubblad ökning av dödlighet om man jämför med barn till oinfekterade mödrar. De vanligaste dödsorsakerna hos dessa barn är diarré eller lunginflammation. Detta är sjukdomar som barnet borde få antikroppar mot via bröstmjölk eller placenta. Kanske har detta antikroppsskydd försämrats av att moder har behandlats med antiretrovirala medel (ART). Det övergripande målet med projektet i ansökan är att identifiera immunitetsfaktorer hos spädbarnet (född av HIV-positiv moder) som kan kopplas till skydd mot HIV och andra vanliga infektioner. Vi ska använda expertis på plats i Kenya och teknologi från Sverige. För att visa på principen och skapa värdefulla resurser så att den högkvalitativa forskningen på infektionssjukdomar i Kenya kan fortsätta ska vi fokusera på följande specifika områden: (i) öka kapaciteten vid laboratorierna inom KEMRI (ii) använda de utökade kapaciteten till att testa immunresponsen på HIV-smitta och rotavirus (orsak till diarré) hos barn födda av HIV-smittade mödrar (iii) beräkna bidraget av antikroppar mot rotavirus, moderns ART-behandling och helammning på insjuknande/dödlighet orsakade av diarré-tillstånd. HIV-laboratoriet på KEMRI är ett *Level 3* fullt utrustat lab med biosäkra skåp, inkubatorer, frysar, etc. För att kunna genomföra analyserna som föreslås behövs endast komplettering med en *Microplate Luminometer*. För analysen med rotavirus har en tidigare överföring av teknologi från Sverige resulterat i kapacitet för att mäta antikroppsnivåer. En utökning av denna mätfunktion kräver endast en mindre modifiering av utrustningen på plats. Med hjälp av svenska forskare ska vi utveckla analyser som kan visa om antikroppar mot HIV och rotavirus verkligen är skyddande och på plats utbilda personal vid KEMRI i dessa analyser. För att genomföra målet (ii) ska vi använda tidigare insamlat provmaterial från *Kesho-Bora*-studien, där HIV-smittade kvinnor slumpmässigt delades in i behandlingsgrupper och gavs antingen HAART-behandling eller standardbehandling mot HIV-infektionen, samt uppföljningen på kvinnorna och deras spädbarn. Vi ska göra en analys av de insamlade blodproven och bröstmjölksproven i den studien. Genom att kombinera resultaten med klinisk information i en epidemiologisk modell ska vi undersöka; immunfaktorernas roll, hormonbehandling hos modern (ART) och amning på spädbarnets hälsa. Alla förberedelser av data och analyser av data ska göras i samarbete med forskare i Kenya. Dessa forskare ska utbildas vid workshops i Kenya och under besök i Sverige som syftar till uppbyggnad av kapaciteten.

SAMARBETSPROJEKT MELLAN BANGLADESH OCH SVERIGE FÖR ATT BESTÄMMA KÄLLORNA TILL SÖDRA ASIENS BRUNA MOLN Sverige, Bangladesh, USA och tre andra länder tog för två år sedan initiativet och bildade den nu snabbt växande Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) som har som mål att begränsa utsläppen av kortlivade klimatpåverkande luftföroreningar (SLCP ? short-lived climate pollutants) (Regeringskansliet, 2012-02-16). Koalitionen inser att SLCP, framförallt Black Carbon (BC, sot) aerosoler från ofullständig förbränning står för en stor del av den pågående klimatuppvärmingen och samtidigt påverkar människors hälsa (luftkvaliten) samt tillgång till dricksvatten och mat. Koalitionen understryker samtidigt behovet av bättre vetenskap kring SLCP och då speciellt kring hinder för att effektivt minska deras utsläpp. Detta innefattar kunskap kring utsläppskällorna av BC/sot, vilket är huvudsyftet med detta samarbetsprojekt mellan två starka forskargrupper i Bangladesh och Sverige. Många olika aktiviteter såsom trafik, industri, tegelbruk, vedeldning och avbränning av jordbruksrester bidrar till det sot-innehållande Bruna Moln som idag ligger som ett draperi över stora delar av södra Asien med stor påverkan på det regionala klimatet och luften som människor andas. Dessvärre så begränsas effektiva åtgärder av dålig kunskap kring de relativa bidragen av olika förbränningskällor. På grund av de regionala vindmönstren så är Bangladesh oproportioneligt illa drabbat då landet ?importerar? mycket av de luftföroreningar som släpps ut i hela norra Indien, vilka blandas med landets egna utsläpp och ger några av de högsta nivåer av sothalter i det Bruna Molnet som någonsin uppmätts. En central komponent i vårt samarbete är att tillämpa i Bangladesh en teknik som bygger på kol-14 datering av sotpartiklar uppfångade i luften i Bangladesh för att bestämma hur stora bidragen är från fossila bränslen (kol-14 ?död? signal) gentemot eldning av ved och annan biomassa (kol-14 ?levande? signal). Tekniken har utveckalts av den svenska gruppen och dess potential har bl.a. visats i en studie på Maldiverna (publicerat i tidskriften Science). Vi har en ambition om ett långsiktigt program, som sträcker sig längre än denna initiala LINK period, där vi i detta bangladesh-svenska samarbete kommer provta kontinuerligt under flera år för att med god statistisk säkerhet kunna leverera kvantitativ information kring sotkällorna. Den informationen kommer vara av stort värde både för en förbättrad kunskap kring klimatet och luftkvaliten samt ett viktigt underlag för effektiva åtgärder för att begränsa utsläppen. Internationellt samarbete är en förutsättning för att ta fram den nya kunskapen. Bägge grupperna hade förmånen att vara inbjudna av miljöministrarna i Bangladesh och Sverige och träffas under ett seminarium i Dhaka för ett drygt år sedan, kallat Joint Bangladesh-Sweden Policy Seminar on ?Near-term Air Quality and Climate Benefits ?

Molecular identification of plant material is an expressed critical interest for the research capacities at the Institute of Traditional Medicine, ITM, as it allows for the identification and monitoring of trade in Tanzania´s rich biological and genetic resources, which is crucial to implementing the CBD and CITES conventions. Our lab in Uppsala has been at the forefront of the development of DNA barcoding of plant species in trade and forensic material, and our work with next-generation sequencing for analysis of species complexes and mixtures is state-of-the-art. The objectives of the project are to: 1) make a quantitative investigation of wild-harvested medicinal plants; 2) identify diversity and volumes of medicinal plants traded in Tanzania; 3) use DNA barcoding for the identification of medicinal plants traded from local markets, border checkpoints and Dar es Salaam Airport; 4) use Ion-Torrent NGS for molecular identification of species in mixtures and processed products; 5) and use standard and innovative NGS-generated markers for the identification of wild-harvested orchids. This project will help our partners to take directed measures to protect consumers from toxic adulterants, protect endangered species from destructive overharvesting, curb biopiracy and trade in endangered wildlife, and facilitate controlled sustainable exploitation of medicinal plant resources. I Tanzania används medicinalväxter av många människor som primär källa för hälsovård. Kommersiell handel är det största hotet mot vilda medicinalväxter. Där insamlingen av vilda medicinalväxter sker mest, är i kustskogar och i afroalpina områden, som också är några av de mest hotade platserna för den biologiska mångfalden i Afrika. Övervakning av handeln med vilda medicinalväxter är komplicerad eftersom de flesta material handlas i torkad eller pulveriserad form. Uppskattningsvis så bedrivs denna handel med mer än 500 arter. Övervakning av handeln i Tanzanias genetiska resurser är avgörande för implementering av Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) och Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), samt för att skapa ett system för hållbart utnyttjande. Molekylära metoder för identifiering av biologiskt material, såsom DNA barcoding med standardmarkörer och nästa generations sekvensering (NGS), gör det möjligt att identifiera bearbetat material som hittills har varit omöjligt att identifiera. Dessa metoder har förbättrats de senaste åren och i allt högre grad används forensisk identifiering av CITES-listade växter. Projektet syftar till att använda kvantitativa marknadsundersökningar i kombination med strukturerade intervjuer för att dokumentera förekomst, tillgänglighet och kvalitet på arterna i handeln, och att använda nästa generations DNA-sekvensering för molekylär artbestämning. DNA-sekvensdata från marknadsprov kommer att användas för molekylär identifiering genom att matcha de genererade sekvenserna med sekvenser från identifierade refererade herbariesamlingar från tidigare fältarbete, internationella herbarier, och även mot online-databaser. Detta kommer att möjliggöra korrekt identifiering av insamlade vilda växter samt de specifika delar som används inom läkekonsten, t.ex. rötter, bark och trä, innan dessa behandlas vidare för försäljning i detaljhandeln, och möjliggöra identifiering på artnivå. Molekylär DNA-identifiering av växtmaterial är av uttalat starkt intresse för forskningskapaciteten vid Institutet för traditionell medicin (ITM) i Tanzania, eftersom det skulle göra det möjligt för identifiering och övervakning av nationell så som internationell handel av Tanzanias rika biologiska och genetiska mångfald. Identifieringen är avgörande för genomförandet av CBD och CITES, stävjandet av biopiracy och den illegala handeln med utrotningshotade djur, och dessutom förbättra kunskapen om (inter)nationell handel av medicinalväxter. Medicinalväxthandeln är oftast en horisontell handel mellan låginkomstländer, som ofta förvärras av okunskap och otillräckliga morfologiska identifieringsmetoder. Den kompetens och utrustning som krävs för utvecklingen av molekylära identifieringsmetoder, speciellt de som involverar nästa generations sekvensering (NGS), finns hos en liten grupp höginkomstländer. Samarbetet kring utveckling av dessa identifieringssystem är en väsentlig del av kunskapsöverföring, horisontell rättvisa och kooperativ kunskapsutveckling. Dessa system kan användas oberoende av varandra i länder som Tanzania genom att bygga upp en lokal forskningsinfrastruktur, och därigenom göra det möjligt för lokal utbildning och spridning av dessa metoder. Identifieringsmetoderna kommer att komma till användning för statliga och icke-statliga organ med uppgift att övervaka den pågående illegala handeln och därigenom bidra till ett ökat miljöskydd. Utbildning och handledning till lärare och doktorander vid ITM i molekylärbiologiska metoder för DNA-barcoding kommer att möjliggöra snabb spridning av kunskap, samt ge viktig träning i molekylär metodik som är en efterfrågad kompetens inom lokala forsknings- och utvecklingsfunktioner inom läkemedelsindustrin.

The proposed project will provide the foundation for the development of nanotechnologies for the catalytic pyrolysis of renewable biomass. Specifically, we will investigate thermal transformations of a series of fatty acids (FA) and triglycerides (TG) from algae, vegetable oils, and feedstock samples of triglyceride producing plants on the surface of nanocatalysts synthesized in the framework of this project. The sum-frequency generation spectroscopy (SFG), IR spectroscopy, Temperature programmed desorption mass spectrometry (TPD-MS) and linear-free energy relationship (LFER) principle will be used for the determination of the pyrolysis mechanisms, reactivity of this biomolecules (FA, TG) on surfaces of novel catalytic materials. These studies will enable identification of products and temperature ranges of thermal transformation on the surfaces of nanocatalysts. Structure-reactivity correlations, calculated kinetic and reaction parameters of thermal catalytic reactions will be determined based on the experimental data. Understanding of the reaction mechanism and kinetics would contribute much to the design of highly selective novel nanocatalysts for biofuel and oleochemicals production. Klimatförändringar, höga oljepriser, den minskade tillgången av fossila bränslen och behovet av säkra och diversifierade energikällor har ökat betydelsen av att utveckla alternativa energikällor. I Sverige har diversifieringen av t ex uppvärmningssektorn kommit ganska långt, i Ukraina är den fortfarande helt dominerad av rysk naturgas. Biomassa bestående i huvudsak av kolhydrater, grönsaker, växtoljor, cellulosa, lignin och glycerid är förnybara och alternativa energikällor till de traditionella fossila energislagen (olja, kol, naturgas). För att katalytiskt omvandla biomassa till biobränsle krävs starka syror eller baser, vilket i industriell skala orsakar stora miljöpoblem. För att lösa detta problem krävs utveckling av grön teknologi t ex i termer av heterogen katalys. Teknologier baserade på heterogen katalys kräver inte farliga lösningsmedel eller starka syror. Katalytisk heterogen pyrolys är en av de mest lovande ritkingarna för framställning av biobränsle. Pyrolys innebär en termisk nedbrytning vid hög temperatur (450-600 C) i syrefri miljö så att förbränning undviks. Problemet är att processen inte är effektiv och leder till oönskade reaktioner. Utveckling av högaktiv och selektiv process är därför önskvärd. Den bästa vägen framåt för att uppnå detta är att gå från konventionella material till nanomaterial som på grund av sin ringa storlek har en större area per volymenhet. För att uppnå detta krävs forskning och utveckling av nya nanomaterial och karakterisering av dessa material. Materialutvecklingen kommer att äga rum i Ukraina, karakteriseringen med olika spekroskopiska metoder i både Sverige och Ukraina, med metoder som kompleterar varandra. Man måste förstå mekanismer, reaktionskinetik, och systematisera faktorer som styr aktivitet och selektivitet.

Our teamwork will contribute both to research and development in two ways: (i) synergetic exchanging of experience in the field of novel applications based on wide band gap semiconductor nanotechnology and (ii) building up international long-term collaboration between outstanding experience specialists and younger researchers. The contribution from and to each partner will be done by exchange of knowledge by mean of visits and organization of workshops and seminars in material synthesis, characterization, design and fabrication of nanodevices. Prototype devices based on III-nitrides and metal oxides will be examined for utilization in optoelectronics, photovoltaic and bio- and chemical sensing, i.e. for applications important for energy saving and environmental issues. The project is focused on three main tasks where the exchange of knowledge can be useful: (i) studying organic/inorganic hybrid light emitting diode structures based on III-nitrides, (ii) development of wide band gap III-V and metal-oxide nanostructures for potential application in water splitting and (iii) fabrication of novel fibre-optic sensors with refractometry configuration for chemical and biomedical applications. Syftet med detta projekt är att bygga upp ett bilateralt samarbete mellan Linköpings universitet och Tekniska Högskolan i Moldavien. Ett av de största problemen i Moldavien är bristen på interna energiresurser vilket har resulterat i att Moldavien är beroende av dyr energi import från Ukraina och Ryssland.

Our teamwork will contribute both to research and development in two ways: (i) synergetic exchanging of experience in the field of novel applications based on wide band gap semiconductor nanotechnology and (ii) building up international long-term collaboration between outstanding experience specialists and younger researchers. The contribution from and to each partner will be done by exchange of knowledge by mean of visits and organization of workshops and seminars in material synthesis, characterization, design and fabrication of nanodevices. Prototype devices based on III-nitrides and metal oxides will be examined for utilization in optoelectronics, photovoltaic and bio- and chemical sensing, i.e. for applications important for energy saving and environmental issues. The project is focused on three main tasks where the exchange of knowledge can be useful: (i) studying organic/inorganic hybrid light emitting diode structures based on III-nitrides, (ii) development of wide band gap III-V and metal-oxide nanostructures for potential application in water splitting and (iii) fabrication of novel fibre-optic sensors with refractometry configuration for chemical and biomedical applications. Syftet med detta projekt är att bygga upp ett bilateralt samarbete mellan Linköpings universitet och Tekniska Högskolan i Moldavien. Ett av de största problemen i Moldavien är bristen på interna energiresurser vilket har resulterat i att Moldavien är beroende av dyr energi import från Ukraina och Ryssland.

It is a major contribution to children?s high morbidity and mortality in countries like Uganda. There is no vaccine and resistance against medications is an increasing problem. The parasites live inside erythrocytes where they multiply, and every 48 hours new mini-parasites, so called merozoites, exit the bursting old erythrocytes and enter new erythrocytes.

We will use combinations of parasites with defined invasion pathways or merozoite antigen knock-out parasites together with erythrocytes that lack specific antigens on their surface, or antibodies against these antigens. We will combine our own expertise of malaria with our collaborator?s expertise in erythrocyte variants, and we believe that this can create totally new opportunities to find new ways of invasion for the P. falciparum parasites.

Improvements of photocatalytic properties will be accomplished by the selective crystallization of immobilized nanoparticles of photcatalysts such as TiO2, WO3, Fe2O3, and MoO3 in the phosphate glassy-matrix of AO-C2O3-TiO2-MO3-P2O5 (A=Ca, Ba, Sn, Zn; C=Al, Fe; M= Mo, W). The crystallization of catalysts will be facilitated by the application of laser heating. The structure and properties of synthesized hybrid materials will be characterized by a range of micro-analytical techniques, including, for example, micro-Raman spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction, and complemented by Monte Carlo simulations. The proposed cross-disciplinary research involves chemists and mineralogists from three universities in Morocco and Sweden. The newly developed phosphate-based glass-ceramics will be of interest for industrial and scientific communities since it will represent environmentally friendly absorbers of light and/or heat. Use of low-cost and abundant precursors such as apatite minerals and Moroccan natural phosphates for their synthesis will further increase attractiveness of these new materials. Funktionella fosfatglaskeramer för vätgasproduktion och miljömässig koldioxid minskning Det globala energibehovet förväntas i stor sett fördubblas till 2050 och tredubblas till 2100. Detta på grund av en ökande världsbefolknings ökande levnadsstandardbehov. Att hålla atmosfärens koldioxidhalt (CO2) under åtminstone den dubbla förindustriella nivån och samtidigt möta de ökande energibehoven från ytterligare sex miljarder energianvändare kommer att kräva uppfinningsrikedom, utveckling och användning av kolneutral energi i en skala likvärdig med, eller större än, dagens energitillgångar från alla källor sammantagna. Vätgas, bränslet med högsta energikapaciteten per massenhet, har potential att tillhandahålla och möjligen ersätta fossila bränslen under de närmaste decennierna. För att uppnå det målet är storskalig och kostnadseffektiv framställning av vätgas med hjälp av kolfria resurser högst önskvärd. Olika metoder för att framställa vätgas har rapporterats i litteraturen. Vätgasbildning från biomassa och vattensönderdelning är för närvarande två huvudfåror i forskningen. Utgående från mekanismerna bakom fotosyntesen, har vätgasbildning från vattensönderdelning (konstgjord fotosyntes) rönt stor uppmärksamhet. Halvledande fotokatalysatorer i form av tunna lager har utvecklats för fotoelektrokemisk (FEK) vätgasproduktion. Under de senaste decennierna har många oxid-fotoelektroder, typ TiO2, WO3 och SrTiO3 studerats i detta syfte. Verkningsgraden hos FEK typer har begränsats av flera nyckelfaktorer, typ begränsad ljusabsorptions effektivitet i det önskade synliga våglängdsområdet, samt återkombinering av fotoexiterade elektroner och hål. Utvecklingen av nanomaterial har emellertid erbjudit potentiella fördelar jämfört med bulkmaterial vad gäller fotoelektroder av PEC. Nyligen har vetenskapsmän visat på den unika kapaciteten hos amorf kobolt-fosfat katalys för att oxidera vatten till O2 och underlätta möjligheten att använda vatten-sönderdelning som en solenergi- lagringsmekanism för att möjliggöra sol-till-bränsle omvandling i neutralt vatten under normala förhållanden. Detta resultat gör användning av glas och speciellt undersökning av fosfatglas och relaterade material intressantare än tidigare. Nyligen har utfällda transparenta anatas-keramer tillverkats av CaO-B2O3-Al2O3-TiO2 glas. Denna infallsvinkel är ny och lovande vad gäller solenergilagring i framtiden. Glas-keram materialen har visat spännande resultat vad gäller att splittra vatten med hjälp av solenergi. Dessa glas är dock behäftade med det allvarliga problemet att de innehåller en stor mängd giftig Bi2O3, samtidigt som de kräver hög tillverkningstemperatur. I det här projektet tänker vi utveckla miljövänliga glas-keramiska fosfatmaterial för att splittra vatten med hjälp av solenergi. Förbättringar av fotokatalytiska egenskaper kommer att uppnås genom selektiv kristallisation av nanokristalliter av TiO2, WO3, Fe2O3 och MoO3 oxider. Reaktantglasen kommer att tillverkas med olika metoder. De tillverkade glas-keramerna kommer att kunna tillverkas i den teknologiskt viktiga formen av högkvalitetsfilm. Medan det svenska teamet är specialiserade på karakterisering och design av mineral-baserade produkter, har det marockanska teamet unik kunskap i tillverkning av fosfatglas och relaterade kristallina faser. Kombination och utbyte av *know-how* mellan de båda teamen förväntas resultera i synergieffekter, förbättra formulering och utveckling av en ny typ av glas-keramer i solenergi-lagrings-system. Formulering av nya fosfatglas-keramer är av stort intresse både inom industrin och för forskarsamhället eftersom fosfatmaterial är användarvänliga och goda absorbatorer av ljus och/eller värme. Dessutom används billiga råvaror vid tillverkningen, typ apatitmineral, t.ex. billiga naturliga marockanska fosfater samt billiga syntetiska material.

Glas-keram materialen har visat spännande resultat vad gäller att splittra vatten med hjälp av solenergi. Dessa glas är dock behäftade med det allvarliga problemet att de innehåller en stor mängd giftig Bi2O3, samtidigt som de kräver hög tillverkningstemperatur. I det här projektet tänker vi utveckla miljövänliga glas-keramiska fosfatmaterial för att splittra vatten med hjälp av solenergi. Förbättringar av fotokatalytiska egenskaper kommer att uppnås genom selektiv kristallisation av nanokristalliter av TiO2, WO3, Fe2O3 och MoO3 oxider. Reaktantglasen kommer att tillverkas med olika metoder. De tillverkade glas-keramerna kommer att kunna tillverkas i den teknologiskt viktiga formen av högkvalitetsfilm. Medan det svenska teamet är specialiserade på karakterisering och design av mineral-baserade produkter, har det marockanska teamet unik kunskap i tillverkning av fosfatglas och relaterade kristallina faser. Kombination och utbyte av *know-how* mellan de båda teamen förväntas resultera i synergieffekter, förbättra formulering och utveckling av en ny typ av glas-keramer i solenergi-lagrings-system. Formulering av nya fosfatglas-keramer är av stort intresse både inom industrin och för forskarsamhället eftersom fosfatmaterial är användarvänliga och goda absorbatorer av ljus och/eller värme. Dessutom används billiga råvaror vid tillverkningen, typ apatitmineral, t.ex. billiga naturliga marockanska fosfater samt billiga syntetiska material.

Rubrik: Land, kreatur och levnadsförhållanden i torrområden, West Pokot, Kenya Beskrivning: Pastorala samhällen, som är beroende av småskalig boskapsskötsel i torra områden i utvecklingsländerna har kommit under ökande tryck från expanderande jordbruk och förknippas ofta med markförslitning orsakad av överbetning och fattigdom på grund av frånvaron av boskapsmarknader och begränsade möjligheter att förbättra boskapens produktivitet. Men på senare tid har tankar på en boskapsrevolution fått allt större uppmärksamhet bland många experter. Enligt denna idé, kommer produktionen av boskap i många torra områden i världen att förändras - och kommer att fortsätta att förändras - för att möta den växande globala efterfrågan på kött och mjölk. Ny forskning visar att animalieproduktionen i torra områden i Östafrika är under förändring. Pastoralister blir mindre nomadiska, markanvändningen mer intensiv, föder upp boskap för kommersiella syften snarare än för existensminimum, och överför i allt högre grad sin mark från gemensamt till privat ägande. Men det finns knappast några studier som ännu som har studerat orsakerna till och konsekvenserna av denna förändring, detta trots att livsmedelsförsörjningen för miljontals fattiga hushåll har, eller kommer att, påverkas. För att möta behovet av ökad förståelse och kunskap om den förändrade boskapsproduktionen i Östafrika, kommer det föreslagna projektet att studera drivkrafterna bakom förändringen, de processer genom vilka denna förändring äger rum, och konsekvenserna av denna förändring för en hållbar utveckling av torra områden. Projektet kommer att fokusera på en specifik förändring i specifik region: den pågående privatiseringen av gemensamma betesmarker för mer intensiv produktion av boskap och/eller grödor (så kallad agro-pastoralism) av hushållen, i en viss region: West Pokot?s län i nordvästra Kenya. Under de senaste 25 åren har markanvändningen i delar av West Pokot Division i Kenya förändrats drastiskt. Man använder nu mycket mer inhägnade betesmarker än förr, när man var mer renodlat pastoralister. Tekniken att hägna, med buskar och grenar, introducerades av Vi-skogen på 80-talet. Sedan har den modifierats av lokala bönder och kreatursskötare för att passa deras behov. Det finns inte så mycket forskning kring omställningen från traditionellt nomadiserande betesbruk till hägnade och skötta betesmarker och grödo-fält, eller om dess effekter och konsekvenser på mark och miljö. Inte heller finns det mycket forskning om sociala och ekonomiska effekter och konsekvenser av den omställning som nu sker. För att studera de bakomliggande drivkrafterna, samt processerna och konsekvenserna av förändrad markanvändning, måste en lång rad faktorer och aspekter beaktas i olika skalor och nivåer. Därför kommer det föreslagna projektet att genomföras genom att forskare med kompetens inom olika områden, bland annat kultur- och naturgeografi, ekologi, nationalekonomi, husdjursvetenskap samt humanekologi. Forskarna kommer att kombinera en rad olika metoder för analys av förändringarna i West Pokot, i syfte att nå en övergripande förståelse. Dessa inkluderar (a) en bedömning av vegetationsförändringar i West Pokot, (b) en bedömning av effekten av inhägnader för livsmedelssäkerhet och välfärd på lokal nivå, (c) en analys av effekten av inhägnader på animalieproduktion, (d) en jämförelse ekologiska resultat av olika markanvändningsformer i West Pokot, och (e) en analys av de sociala nätverk av markanvändare, beslutsfattare och intressenter som är förknippade med boskapsproduktion i West Pokot.

The Arabian-Nubian Shield (ANS), a Neoproterozoic aged orogen in NE Africa, contains large volumes of carbonate-altered rock. The Neoproterozoic Era was a period of tremendous climatic variability. The carbonation in the ANS implies very large fluxes of CO2 to the Earth?s surface, but the sources, flux rates or timing of flow of the CO2-rich fluid is not known. The carbonate-altered rocks also show a spatial association with gold deposits in the ANS but the significance of this relationship is poorly understood. This project aims to identify the sources and flux rate of CO2, the timing of carbonate alteration in the ANS, and the relationship between carbonation and gold deposition. The project will be carried out through annual field workshops in the Eastern Desert of Egypt, and research visits for international partners to carry out isotopic and geochemical analyses at Stockholm University. The collaboration includes researchers from Sweden, Egypt, USA and Saudi Arabia. Constraint of the source, fluxes, and timing of CO2-rich fluid flow that caused carbonate alteration in the ANS will improve our understanding of climatic evolution during the Neoproterozoic. Better understanding of the link between carbonate alteration and gold deposition in the ANS will allow development of more successful exploration models for gold deposits in Egypt. Karbonatomvandling innebär att CO2-rika fluider reagerar med vissa bergarter i jordskorpan och manteln varvid omvandlingsreaktioner sker och karbonater fälls ut. Det är en viktig geologisk process med stor betydelse för att binda koldioxid i berggrunden, kolets kretslopp och flödet av CO2 till jordens atmosfär samt även för bildandet av malmfyndigheter. Den Arabisk-Nubiska skölden (ANS) är en gammal orogen i NÖ Afrika bildad under neoproterozoikum för mellan 870 och 540 miljoner år sedan. ANS i Egypten består av stora volymer berggrund som karbonatomvandlats genom reaktion med CO2-rika fluider. Karbonatomvandlingen vittnar om att stora flöden av CO2 till jordens oceaner och atmosfär ägde rum under neoproterozoikum, men väldigt lite är känt om källan till CO2, flödesintensiteten och den exakta tidpunkten vid vilken flödet inträffade. Neoproterozoikum vid tiden för bildandet av ANS var en period av enorma klimatvariationer med snabba växlingar mellan istidsperioder med extrem nedisning till supervarma *växthus* perioder. Istidsperioderna var särskilt extrema med globala eller nästan globala nedisningar (?Snowboll Earth?) som följd. I ANS förekommer guldfyndigheter i nära association med områden av karbonatomvandlade bergarter. Guldfyndigheterna är vanligtvis belägna i förkastningszoner som skär genom de karbonatomvandlade bergarterna. Förhållandet mellan karbonatomvandling och bildandet av guldfyndigheter är ännu inte helt klarlagt. Projektet syftar till att 1) Identifiera ursprunget (källan) för den CO2 som orsakade karbonat-omvandlingen i ANS , 2) Datering av karbonatomvandlingen i ANS, 3) Beräkna flödet av CO2 och uppskatta den totala volymen av CO2 som tillfördes neoproterozoiskt hav och atmosfär , 4) Utröna sammansättning, temperatur och tryck för den CO2-rika fluiden och de förhållande under vilka omvandlingarna ägde rum, och 5) Undersöka sambandet mellan den CO2-förande fluiden och bildandet av guldfyndigheterna i ANS. Projektets genomförande kommer att ske genom två olika delmoment 1) Årliga fältarbetsmöten i Eastern Desert (ED) i Egypten, och 2) Gästforskarbesök av internationella samarbetspartner till Stockholms universitet. Målet för varje fältarbetsmöte kommer att vara att undersöka omfattningen och karakterisera karbonatomvandlingen på tre olika platser i ED i Egypten. En representativ provserie kommer att samlas in för analyser i syfte att fastställa ursprunget för CO2 fluiden och datera omvandlingen. Platserna för fältarbetsmötena kommer att bli Meatiq området i centrala ED 2015, Barramiya området även i centrala ED 2016 och Gerf-Allaqi området i södra ED 2017. Geokemi- och isotopanalyser av de insamlade proverna kommer att utföras i Stockholm under samarbetspartnernas gästforskarbesök till Sverige. Forskargruppen består av forskare från Stockholms universitet, National Research Centre, Beni Suef University och Benha University i Egypten, University of Texas i Dallas USA och King Abdulaziz University i Saudiarabien. Fastställande av ursprung, intensitet och datering av det CO2-rika flödet som gav upphov till karbonatomvandlingen i hela ED i Egypten kan avsevärt förbättra vår förståelse av klimatutvecklingen under neoproterozoikum. Detta projekt utgör en fantastisk möjlighet att undersöka de geologiska processer som troligtvis ledde till en minskning av nedisningsperioderna i neoproterozoikum. Bättre förståelse av dessa processer kan hjälpa att förutsäga framtida klimatförändringar. Undersökning av sambandet mellan karbonatomvandling och bildandet av guldfyndigheter i ANS kommer att öka förståelsen av de processer som genererat guldfyndigheterna. Detta kommer att främja utvecklandet av nya och förbättrade prospekteringsmodeller för guldfyndigheter på djupare nivåer i ANS i Egypten. Projektet kommer att möjliggöra en fortsättning av ett forskningssamarbete som utvecklades under ett tidigare projekt 2007 och kommer att lägga grunden för ett långsiktigt forskningssamarbete.

A major challenge to crop production is an increase in the number of arid zones due to climate change. Dr. Eriksson and Dr. Ibáñez investigate the basic mechanisms by which plants respond to environmental stresses. Dr. Eriksson is focused on the role of circadian clock in seasonal regulation of growth and in stress response. Dr. Ibáñez has recently started a new line of research aimed at dissection of the genetic potential of trees adapted to arid zones. The aim of this proposal is to combine our expertise to build a collaboration aimed at elucidating molecular mechanism used by trees to tolerate abiotic stresses associated with arid zones. The methodology proposed draws upon transcriptome data recently generated by the Ibáñez laboratory using the rather salt tolerant Leguminous tree Prosopis chilensis, to use its genetic information and to search for genetic similarities with the model tree Populus spp. In particular we find links with the circadian clock components LATE ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL (LHY) and PSEUDO-RESPONSE REGULATOR 7 (PRR7) and will challenge wild type and trees with reduced expression of these central clock proteins using Populus trees.

Vad kan vi lära oss om salt och torkstresstålighet av det Chilenska trädet Prosopis chilensis? Växter är inte, som djur mobila och måste därför anpassa sig till de rådande förhållandena på den plats de växer. De har därför en mängd specialanpassade mekanismer för att känna av förändringar i miljön och snabbt ändra på sitt sätt att växa. Speciellt problematiskt är det för växter att klara av salt och torkstress. Växten måste hela tiden ha väl vattenfyllda celler för att fungera och de flesta växter dör snabbt om de förlorar vatten. Växter konkurrerar dessutom om tillgång på plats med näring och vatten. Växter som anpassar sig till en tuff miljö däremot har alla möjligheter att breda ut sig och frodas. I Chile finns ett trädslag Prosopis chilensis som växer på mycket torra platser och har god förmåga att tolerera salt. Den kan dessutom ta upp kväve från luften och har därför inte brist på näring utan istället berikar den sin miljö på detta värdefulla ämne som normalt begränsar växters tillväxt. Man kan också bland annat äta trädets frukter och använda dess ved. Vi vill undersöka hur den klarar av att leva där salt och torka dödar andra växter. Vi tror att i nyckeln ligger i att avkoda dess arvsmassa så att vi kan bestämma vilka gener som kodar för proteiner som hjälper till att anpassa den till stress. Därför kommer vi att kartlägga vilka gener som uttrycks annorlunda då den utsätts för salt och de gener som vi tror är viktiga kommer vi att undersöka i ett annat träd; hybrid asp, då den utsätts för salt. Genom att jämföra dessa träd kan vi definiera vilka geners uttryck som är viktiga i båda träden och vilka som är unika och kanske kan användas för att ändra andra växters förmåga att klara av salt och torkstress. Vi kommer även att undersöka hur cellers egen klocka den inre cirka 24 timmars klocka påverkar salt och torkstress. Vi har tidigare funnit att hybrid asp med en klocka som inte går i takt inte kan klara köld. På cell nivån är kyla uttorkande och vissa delar av signalleringen som krävs för att anpassa växter till kyla används även vid salt och tork stress. Vi kan därför använda dessa olika hybrid aspar för att ta reda på om klockan också styr växtens förmåga att tåla salt. Vi hoppas att vi på detta sätt kan förstå vad som krävs för att växter skall klara salt och torkstress, vilket är centralt för att kunna odla viktiga grödor i ett förändrat klimat.

Speciellt problematiskt är det för växter att klara av salt och torkstress. Växten måste hela tiden ha väl vattenfyllda celler för att fungera och de flesta växter dör snabbt om de förlorar vatten. Växter konkurrerar dessutom om tillgång på plats med näring och vatten. Växter som anpassar sig till en tuff miljö däremot har alla möjligheter att breda ut sig och frodas. I Chile finns ett trädslag Prosopis chilensis som växer på mycket torra platser och har god förmåga att tolerera salt. Den kan dessutom ta upp kväve från luften och har därför inte brist på näring utan istället berikar den sin miljö på detta värdefulla ämne som normalt begränsar växters tillväxt. Man kan också bland annat äta trädets frukter och använda dess ved. Vi vill undersöka hur den klarar av att leva där salt och torka dödar andra växter. Vi tror att i nyckeln ligger i att avkoda dess arvsmassa så att vi kan bestämma vilka gener som kodar för proteiner som hjälper till att anpassa den till stress. Därför kommer vi att kartlägga vilka gener som uttrycks annorlunda då den utsätts för salt och de gener som vi tror är viktiga kommer vi att undersöka i ett annat träd; hybrid asp, då den utsätts för salt. Genom att jämföra dessa träd kan vi definiera vilka geners uttryck som är viktiga i båda träden och vilka som är unika och kanske kan användas för att ändra andra växters förmåga att klara av salt och torkstress. Vi kommer även att undersöka hur cellers egen klocka den inre cirka 24 timmars klocka påverkar salt och torkstress. Vi har tidigare funnit att hybrid asp med en klocka som inte går i takt inte kan klara köld. På cell nivån är kyla uttorkande och vissa delar av signalleringen som krävs för att anpassa växter till kyla används även vid salt och tork stress. Vi kan därför använda dessa olika hybrid aspar för att ta reda på om klockan också styr växtens förmåga att tåla salt. Vi hoppas att vi på detta sätt kan förstå vad som krävs för att växter skall klara salt och torkstress, vilket är centralt för att kunna odla viktiga grödor i ett förändrat klimat.

Domestic sheep and goats are species important for the daily survival of the rural poor in Africa, and also the main hosts of the disease. The overall purpose of the proposed 3-year project is to broaden and strengthen the collaboration between a multidisciplinary team of researchers from Sweden, Botswana, Tanzania and France by bringing together expertise in veterinary virology, rural development and infection epidemiology. The proposed project will include a broader view of the impact of PPR posing a serious threat to the development and sustainability of small livestock production in southern Africa. Small livestock is of particular importance for the livelihoods of poor rural farmers, and it is therefore important to assess the socioeconomic impact of PPR to understand how poor groups are affected. This assessment will be performed through livelihoods analysis. The risk related to PPR emergence and spread further to south, in previously PPRV-free countries such as Botswana, will be analyzed and assessed. Mutual knowledge and technology needed for long-term research partnerships on PPRV and other infectious small livestock diseases will be built up through research visits between partners and joint workshops. Better understanding of the effects of the disease will also create the networks and fundamentals needed for preparation of collaborative research proposals. Virusinfektioner som uppkommer i gränslandet mellan vilda djur, tamboskap och människan: Ökad förståelse för epidemiologi och socioekonomisk betydelse av Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) kan leda till bättre levnadsvillkor för småbrukare i Botswana och Tanzania Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) är en smittsam virussjukdom hos får, getter och andra små idisslare som främst drabbar de fattigaste människorna i de fattigaste länderna i världen. Får och getter är nämligen vanliga husdjur i små lantbruk och för eget husbehov i Afrika, Mellanöstern och Asien, områden där PPR är vanligt förekommande och därmed drabbar extra hårt. Djuren sköts ofta av kvinnor och småbruket utgör en stor extrainkomst för dem och deras familjer. Denna sidoinkomst kan vara direkt avgörande för deras dagliga överlevnad och är ett viktigt led i demokrati- och jämlikhetsutvecklingen. Smittsamma djursjukdomar såsom PPR utgör emellertid allvarliga hinder för vidareutveckling av småbruken och har beskrivits som en viktig faktor som kan leda till kronisk fattigdom. I jämförelse med nötkreatur, som är relativt dyra, har även de fattigaste människorna på den afrikanska landsbygden råd att köpa får och getter. Dessa djur används ofta inom byteshandel, för ceremoniella ändamål, för att betala läkarbesök, med mera. Därför räknas de ofta inte med i den officiella ekonomin. Konsekvenserna efter utbrott av smittsamma djursjukdomar som PPR kan därför lätt missas. I denna studie kommer vi att göra en helhetsanalys av småbrukarnas livsvillkor i Botswana för att uppskatta konsekvenserna av smittsamma djursjukdomar genom intervjuer och fältbesök. Det är idag okänt vilken betydelse vilda idisslare har för smittspridningen av PPR. Man vet att afrikanska bufflar kan bära på antikroppar, men inte om de kan bli sjuka. För några år sedan förklarades boskapspest för utrotat. Denna sjukdom orsakades av ett virus närbesläktat med PPRV. Under bekämpningen av boskapspest var bufflar viktiga i övervakningen för att se om viruset fortfarande fanns i miljön, eftersom bufflarna utvecklade antikroppar men inga sjukdomssymtom. I detta projekt kommer vi att utvärdera om bufflar kan användas för detta ändamål i bekämpningen av PPR. För detta kommer vi att undersöka blodprover från afrikanska bufflar tagna från flera länder i södra Afrika. Botswana är än så länge fritt från PPR. Risken för att PPR introduceras till Botswana är överhängande, i och med att sjukdomen närmar sig landets gränser. I detta projekt kommer vi att göra riskanalyser för att bedöma riskerna för att PPR drabbar Botswana. Baserat på resultaten från analysen av småbrukarnas livsvillkor kommer vi även att kunna bedöma konsekvenserna av PPR-utbrott i Botswana. Sådan kunskap är viktig för att beslutsfattare i Botswana och andra länder i regionen ska kunna fatta välgrundade beslut. Detta projekt syftar framför allt till att skapa och stärka forskningssamarbeten mellan svenska forskare och forskare i Botswana och Tanzania. Vi har idag redan goda samarbeten i regionen som vi vill bygga vidare på. Projektet samlar forskare med expertis inom veterinärvirologi, infektionsepidemiologi och landsbygdsutveckling. Inom ramen för projektet kommer vi att organisera workshops om PPR-diagnostik, om sjukdomar som uppkommer i gränslandet mellan vilda djur, tamboskap och människan, och om risker och konsekvenser av smittsamma sjukdomar hos får och getter i södra Afrika.

Vi avser att etablera ett forskningssamarbete Sverige-Turkiet med målsättningen att klarlägga biologiska mekanismer som ligger till grund för allvarliga miljö och hälsoproblem som toxiska halvmetaller utsätter samhället för. Ett flertal halvmetaller (eller metallloider) är giftiga och exponering kan orsaka en rad olika sjukdomar däribland cancer. Höga halter av halvmetaller kan påverka jordbruket negativt med lägre skördar som följd eller att dessa giftiga ämnen tas upp och lagras i födoväxter. Kontaminering av vatten, jord och grödor via ökande användning av vissa halvmetaller i högteknologiska produkter och deras naturligt höga förekomst i vissa geologiska sammanhang ger skäl för stigande oro. Samarbetet avser också att vidga och förstärka nyttan av användandet av halvmetaller som läkemedelskomponeneter. Halvmetaller tjänar som vår främsta medicinska försvarslinje mot tropiska infektionssjukdom som leishmaniasis, och mot vissa former av leukemi, men uppkomsten av resistens genom evolutionär adaptation är ett allvarligt problem. Vår bristande förståelse av hur resistens mot halvmetaller uppkommer, hur och varför de påverkar patogener och vissa typer av cancerceller, och hur bieffekter på normala mänskliga celler uppstår, förhindrar oss från att utforma behandlingsmetoder som maximerar de önskade effekterna och samtidigt minimerar resistensutveckling och bieffekter. Flertalet av de cell-system där halvmetallernas effekter är av störst intresse är utomordentligt svåra att studera i laboratoriet. Vi avser därför att utnyttja ett av de mest effektiva, allmängiltiga och etiskt problemfria cellulära modellsystemen, bagerijäst, för att öka vår kunskap om och förståelse av halvmetallers verkningsmekanismer och cellers resistensutveckling. Specifikt avser vi att: (1) Studera mekanismerna för hur halvmetaller tar sig in i celler och hur de exporteras ut samt hur inflödet kan minskas och utflödet ökas genom ändringar i cellernas arvsmassa. (2) Undersöka hur kontrollerade störningar av enskilda funktioner i cellen påverkar toleransen till halvmetaller. (3) Följa utveckling av halvmetallsresistens i realtid och identifiera de arvsmasseförändringar som ligger till grund för resistensutvecklingen. Turkiet är särskilt illa exponerat för flera halvmetaller med kraftiga direkta och indirekta effekter på jordbruket och folkhälsan som följd. Vårt forskningssamarbete omfattar två svenska och två turkiska forskningsgrupper, och projektets mål är att öka vår kunskap om biologiska mekanismer som ligger till grund för metalloiders giftighet och cellers resistensutveckling. I förlängningen kommer resultaten från detta forskningssamarbete att bidra till förbättrade jordburksmetoder, hälsosammare livsmedelsprodukter, samt säkrare och effektivare behandlingsmetoder mot cancer och infektionssjukdomar.

The main aims of the present project are to (i) Establish the first permanent network of intensely studied plots (ISP?s) in North African populations of the Euphrates poplar (Populus euphratica Olivier), a drought and salt resistant riparian poplar species, occurring in continental-arid climate regions from North Africa to Central Asia. (ii) Use these ISP?s to address questions on local adaptation, (iii) Assess the potential of tree populations to respond to environmental challenges, (iv) Integrate this information in conservation policies. Träd är den centrala komponenten i skogsekosystem och avgörande för bevarandet av dessa ekosystem är att vi förstår skogsträdens reaktioner på klimatförändringar. I detta projekt fokuserar vi på några mycket hotade ekosystem, nämligen skogar av eufratpoppel (Populus euphratica) som har sin naturliga utbredning i ökenområden från Kina till Nordafrika där de växer längs floder, som är torra ett större delen av året. Eufratpoppeln minskar över hela artens naturliga utbredningsområden. I Kina, till exempel, har den totala arealen av skogen Tugai längs Tarimfloden, där eufratpoppel är en av de viktigaste trädarterna, minskat från 500.000 hektar i 1958 till ~200.000 hektar i 1978. I Centralasien har nedgången framför allt orsakats av ökande uttag av vatten för jordbruk, och eufratpoppeln är rödlistad i till exempel Kirgizistan. Kunskapen om bevarandestatus för eufratpopplen i Nordafrika är mycket begränsat, men det finns ingen tvekan om att de både längre och mer frekventa torrperioderna tillsammans med byggande av dammar påverkar många skogar negativt. Det är därför viktigt att vi ökar våran kunskap om hur dessa skogar och ekosystemen fungerar. Av särskild vikt i detta sammanhang är att bättre förstå unika genetiska och fysiologiska mekanismer som möjliggör för dessa träd att överleva svår torka. I detta syfte kommer vi att etablera ett antal ?Intensely Studied Plots? (ISP) i Algeriet och Marocko. Dessa ger oss möjlighet att följa populationerna över tiden. I varje ISP kommer vi att räkna antalet träd, uppskatta deras ålder och beskriva deras miljö. Med hjälp av genetiska markörer kommer vi kunna uppskatta betydelsen av asexuell reproduktion inom varje population och vikten av genflödet mellan populationer. Individer som är genetiskt identiska på många gener anses vara vegetativa kopior av samma individ och populationer som utbyta gener förväntas vara genetiskt mer lika. Informationen vi får från ISP kan sedan användas för att definiera populationer och områden som kan ingå i naturbevarande åtgärder. Genom att studera genetisk variation från hela arvsmassan (genomet) hos ett antal individer från både Nordafrika och Asien kommer vi också kunna identifiera såväl unika som gemensamma genetiska varianter som möjliggör för dessa träd att överleva i svår torka. Slutligen kommer träd från olika populationer att odlas under kontrollerade förhållanden för att mäta variationen i resistans mot torka och salthalt.

The main aims of the present project are to (i) Establish the first permanent network of intensely studied plots (ISP?s) in North African populations of the Euphrates poplar (Populus euphratica Olivier), a drought and salt resistant riparian poplar species, occurring in continental-arid climate regions from North Africa to Central Asia. (ii) Use these ISP?s to address questions on local adaptation, (iii) Assess the potential of tree populations to respond to environmental challenges, (iv) Integrate this information in conservation policies. Träd är den centrala komponenten i skogsekosystem och avgörande för bevarandet av dessa ekosystem är att vi förstår skogsträdens reaktioner på klimatförändringar. I detta projekt fokuserar vi på några mycket hotade ekosystem, nämligen skogar av eufratpoppel (Populus euphratica) som har sin naturliga utbredning i ökenområden från Kina till Nordafrika där de växer längs floder, som är torra ett större delen av året. Eufratpoppeln minskar över hela artens naturliga utbredningsområden. I Kina, till exempel, har den totala arealen av skogen Tugai längs Tarimfloden, där eufratpoppel är en av de viktigaste trädarterna, minskat från 500.000 hektar i 1958 till ~200.000 hektar i 1978. I Centralasien har nedgången framför allt orsakats av ökande uttag av vatten för jordbruk, och eufratpoppeln är rödlistad i till exempel Kirgizistan. Kunskapen om bevarandestatus för eufratpopplen i Nordafrika är mycket begränsat, men det finns ingen tvekan om att de både längre och mer frekventa torrperioderna tillsammans med byggande av dammar påverkar många skogar negativt. Det är därför viktigt att vi ökar våran kunskap om hur dessa skogar och ekosystemen fungerar. Av särskild vikt i detta sammanhang är att bättre förstå unika genetiska och fysiologiska mekanismer som möjliggör för dessa träd att överleva svår torka. I detta syfte kommer vi att etablera ett antal ?Intensely Studied Plots? (ISP) i Algeriet och Marocko. Dessa ger oss möjlighet att följa populationerna över tiden. I varje ISP kommer vi att räkna antalet träd, uppskatta deras ålder och beskriva deras miljö. Med hjälp av genetiska markörer kommer vi kunna uppskatta betydelsen av asexuell reproduktion inom varje population och vikten av genflödet mellan populationer. Individer som är genetiskt identiska på många gener anses vara vegetativa kopior av samma individ och populationer som utbyta gener förväntas vara genetiskt mer lika. Informationen vi får från ISP kan sedan användas för att definiera populationer och områden som kan ingå i naturbevarande åtgärder. Genom att studera genetisk variation från hela arvsmassan (genomet) hos ett antal individer från både Nordafrika och Asien kommer vi också kunna identifiera såväl unika som gemensamma genetiska varianter som möjliggör för dessa träd att överleva i svår torka. Slutligen kommer träd från olika populationer att odlas under kontrollerade förhållanden för att mäta variationen i resistans mot torka och salthalt. Sist, men inte minst, kommer vi att integrera den nya kunskapen vi erhållit i naturvårdspolitiska förslag.

Established first-principles methods will be used, in particular density functional theory for the investigation of structural and energetic aspects, molecular dynamics simulations to study kinetics and temperature effects, and quantum chemistry methods to achieve even higher accuracies. We have studied a broad variety of materials for H-storage applications, investigating effect of catalysts, desorption mechanisms, possible improvements for hydrogen binding, etc. This enabled us to contribute to a better understanding of H-storage systems and make suggestions on how certain materials could be further improved. However, H-storage is only one aspect of the hydrogen economy, and we plan to expand our research to the fields of hydrogen production. The hydrogen economy possesses many attractive features: hydrogen is abundant and accessible if sunlight is used efficiently for the splitting of water into hydrogen and oxygen. Nästa generations energimaterial för vätebaserade energisystem Varför solenergi? På en timme träffar cirka 4.3*1020 J solljus jorden. Det är mer än all energi som för närvarande produceras på jorden under ett år. Dagens energikällor är till stora delar baserade på fossila bränslen. Förutom att fossila bränslen anses stå för klimatförändringar så är det också en begränsad resurs. Vår energihungriga värld blir allt mer beroende av nya metoder att utvinna, lagra och omvandla energi på ett miljövänligt sätt. I dagens mobila samhälle använder vi portabel elektronisk utrustning och transport av människor och varor ökar ständigt. Därför är det viktigt att utveckla säkra, ekonomiska och miljövänliga energikällor. Att lagra energi i form av väte skulle vare ett idealiskt syntetiskt bränsle. Väte är det tredje vanligaste ämnet på jorden och är det kemiska bränsle som har högst energiinnehåll per massenhet. Förbränning av väte är miljövänligt eftersom den enda biprodukt som bildas är vatten. Förverkligandet av vätebaserade bränslesystem för fordon är beroende av genombrott i forskningen kring material och system inom tre områden: Produktion Lagring Förbrukning Exempel på materialegenskaper som behöver förbättras inom de olika områdena är effektivitetsgrad, lagringskapacitet, arbetstemperatur och kostnadseffektivitet. Utöver detta är det också viktigt att de tre bitarna är kompatibla, gällande till exempel arbetstemperatur och tolerans för orenheter. Därför är det viktigt att titta på helheten när man skräddarsyr näst generations energimaterial. Produktion. En ny och attraktiv metod för att producera vätgas är delningen av vatten i en process som kallas fotolys. I den här metoden används väldigt nanometerstora halvledarpartiklar som förs in i en vattenlösning och belyses sedan med ljus. Ljuset inducerar en laddningsöverföring från partiklarna till vattenmolekylerna, vilket leder till delning av vattenmolekylerna. Det finns många system tillgängliga i litteraturen, men de flesta av dem opererar i UV-regionen. Huvudmålet här är att finna ett system som absorberar hela skalan av synligt ljus så att man på ett mycket effektivt sätt att omvandla solenergi till kemisk energi. Lagring. Att lagra väte i form av gas kräver väldigt högt tryck och medför tunga behållare och stora säkerhetsrisker. Om vätet kyls ner till låga temperaturer kan det lagras i vätskeform, men detta medför stora kostnader och kräver tung utrustning. Ett tredje alternativ är att lagra vätet inuti fasta material. I dagens läge finns såkallade metallhydrider som kan lagra stora mängder väte per volymenhet. Säkerhetsaspekten hos dessa material är också mycket bra. I de material där vätet reversibelt kan lagras är dock är väteinnehållet per viktenhet ännu för lågt. För att kunna höja väteinnehållet per viktenhet måste vikten hos metallerna som vätet binds i sänkas. Därför är grundämnen som Li, B, N, C, Na och Mg intressanta som material att lagra väte i. Tyvärr binder dessa material vätet med starka bindningar vilket gör att temperaturerna som behövs för att frigöra vätet är för höga. Vätelagringsegenskaperna kan förändras med hjälp av katalysatorer och blandning av olika material för att få fram nya egenskaper. Även strukturen, till exempel fasta material med liten yta eller små partiklar med stor yta, kan förändra egenskaperna hos ett material. I högytematerial, som till exempel MOF (metal-organic frameworks), är inte problemet som hos metallhydriderna att vätet binds för starkt utan istället binds vätet för svagt. Detta gör att det krävs låga temperaturer för att materialet skall kunna behålla vätet. I det här fallet behöver det istället utvecklas sätt för att stärka bindningarna mellan vätet och lagringsmaterialet, för att höja temperaturen vid vilken vätet kan lagras.

In this project, a specialist in amphibian phylogeny based at the Argentine Museum of Natural Sciences in Buenos Aires, a specialist in amphibian biology based at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, and a specialist on visual ecology and colour vision at the University of Lund, Sweden, team up to better understand the visual ecology of amphibians. This will be a completely new collaboration. Therefore, in this first phase of the collaboration, we will focus on an adaptation for vision in dim light that is specific for (most, but not all) amphibians: the presence of two classes of rod photoreceptors in the retina. We will take behavioural tests from the laboratory to the field, study amphibian eyes with histological and optical methods, and measure the light habitats of a broad range of species to answer these questions: Can amphibians use their two rod types to discriminate colours at night, and what is the ecological relevance of this? How widespread are the green rods in all three amphibians orders - Anura, Caudata, Gymnophiona? Is the presence of green rods associated with nocturnal lifestyles and/or specific groups throughout their evolutionary history, and how does artificial lighting affect amphibian amphibians?

Det har varit känd sedan ganska lång tid men orsakerna är till stor del fortfarande okända. Vi vet alldeles för lite om denna ryggradsdjur-klassens ekologi. Framförallt vet vi mycket litet om hur de använder sina ögon för att hitta mat och parningspartner. Det är förvånande eftersom groddjur har en särprägel i näthinnan som är helt unik: till skillnad från alla andra ryggradsdjur har de två typer av stavar, kallade röda och gröna. Det betyder att nattaktiva groddjur kanske kan urskilja färger på natten när människan är fullständigt färgblind. I vårt projekt samlar vi världsledande kompetens inom groddjurens fylogeni (J Faivovich), groddjurens biologi (T Grant) och djurens sinnesbiologi (A Kelber) för att hitta svaren på viktiga frågor kring groddjurens ekologi: 1. Kan groddjur använda sina två typer stavar i näthinnan för att urskilja färger på natten, och om så är fallet, vilken ekologisk betydelse har denna förmågan? 2. Hur spridd är gröna stavar inom alla tre ordningar inom groddjuren; stjärtlösa groddjur (anura), stjärtgroddjur (caudata) samt maskgroddjur (gymnophiona)? 3. Finns gröna stavar framförallt hos nattaktiva groddjur, eller är de typiska för specifika grupper (tex. anura och caudata), och vilka effekter har konstgjord belysning på groddjurens nattliga aktivitet? Det finns två anledningar att samarbeta med kollegor i Argentina och Brasilien i detta projekt: Sydamerika har en stor artrikedom inom groddjuren men en avsevärt större andel av utrotningshotade arter än andra kontinenter. Samtidigt är båda kollegor världsledande inom sina forskningsfält (groddjurens fylogeni och biologi) och har stor erfarenhet av fältarbete med groddjur. En post-doc kommer att jobba med projektet och dela sin tid mellan Lund och Buenos Aires samt fältarbete i Argentina och Brasilien. Dessutom kommer vi att utbilda flera studenter från Argentina och Brasilien i histologiska metoder här i Lund, så att de sedan kan jobba med delprojekt i Argentina och Brasilien. Vi planerar tre delprojekt under 2015-2017: 1. I Lund utvecklar vi två slags beteendeförsök för att testa om grodor (Rana temporaria)och paddor (Bufo bufo) kan urskilja färger på natten. I ett experiment tränar vi djuren att associera mat med en viss färg och testar om de kan urskilja färgen från andra färger. I andra experimentet utnyttjar vi att hanar föredrar honor av viss färg. 2. Samtidigt testar vi histologiska metoder för att markera röda och gröna stavar samt andra syn-celler i näthinnan och gör optiska mätningar på grodor och paddor. Vi undervisar argentinska och brasilianska studenter i dessa metoder och gör mätningarna på ett stort antal arter i Brasilien och Argentina samt på odlade arter. Vi mäter och beskriver även ljusintensitet a alla dessa arters habitat på olika dags- och årstider. 3. Vi väljer att mindre antal arter och upprepar beteendeexperiment (se delprojekt 1) för att förstå hur de kan använda sina gröna tappar.

SSC has positive effects on infant temperature and initiating of breastfeeding. We will study if a simple low-cost intervention that can enhance early initiation and duration of breastfeeding can be implemented. The medical staff and the hospital management will be shown a DVD containing information about newborns´ instinctive behavior and the benefits of SSC and this information will also be spread in pamphlets and posters. A quasi-experimental design will be used with data collections before and after the intervention. 60 mother-infant pairs will be included in each of the 2 data collections. SSC and breastfeeding will be observed and the temperature of the infant will be measured. 1 month after birth the mothers will be interviewed about breastfeeding and interpretation of their infant´s cues. Focus group interviews will be performed with the staff to investigate what they perceive as facilitating factors and barriers to implement SSC. If proven effective the intervention can be implemented in other low resource settings. This is a joint research collaboration originating from a Linneaus-Palme supported student and teacher exchange between the midwifery programmes at Karolinska Institutet and Makerere University. Oavbruten hud-mot-hud kontakt mellan mammor och deras nyfödda barn den första timmen efter födelsen har många positiva effekter. Bland annat har nyfödda barn som ligger hud-mot-hud mindre risk för undertemperatur och amningen initieras snabbare och frekvensen helamning ökar om hud-mot-hud kontakt tillämpas. Amning har också många välkända hälsoeffekter, bl.a. minskar risken för övre luftinfektioner, öroninflammationer och diarréer hos barnen. I Uganda har endast 2 % av mammorna och de nyfödda barnen hud-mot-hud kontakt efter förlossningen, upp till 83 % av de nyfödda har för låg temperatur och bara 57 % helammas vid en månads ålder och få helammas vid sex månaders ålder. Undertemperatur är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till att nyfödda barn dör och i länder som t.ex. Uganda, där tillgången till rent vatten är begränsat är det extra viktigt att inte barnen får bröstmjölksersättning. Om vårdrutinen hud-mot-hud kontakt inom den första timmen efter förlossningen implementeras skulle t.ex. andelen barn med undertemperatur minska, frekvensen helamning öka och det skulle även medföra andra positiva hälsoeffekter för mammor och barn. I lågresurser länder är det extra väsentligt att kostnader för implementering hålls nere och därför är det viktigt att hitta billiga implementeringsformer som också är enkla att införa. Detta projekt syftar därför till att undersöka om en enkel och billig intervention som vi har utvecklat är effektiv för att öka andelen mammor och barn som har hud-mot-hud kontakt efter förlossning, minska andelen nyfödda barn med undertemperatur och öka andelen mammor som helammar sina barn vid en månad. Vi kommer att visa en DVD för barnmorskor och läkare vid en förlossningsavdelning på ett sjukhus i Uganda och sjukhusledningen som innehåller information om barnets instinktiva beteende vid bröstet och fördelarna med hud-mot-hud kontakt mellan mödrar och nyfödda barn. Personalen har också möjlighet att ställa frågor i anslutning till visningen av DVDn. Broschyrer och postrar riktade till personalen kommer även att finnas tillgängliga. Innan denna intervention genomförs kommer 60 mammor och barn att observeras, bl.a. kommer vi att studera om hud-mot-hud kontakt tillämpas och om barnet suger på bröstet. Vi kommer även att mäta temperatur på barnen. En månad efter förlossningen kommer mammorna att intervjuas om barnets uppfödning och hur de uppfattar barnet. Två månader efter interventionen kommer motsvarande datainsamling att göras på ytterligare 60 mammor och barn. På så sätt kommer vi att få möjlighet att se om det sker några förändringar i andelen barn som har hud-mot-hud kontakt, har undertemperatur och som helammas efter att interventionen har införts . Dessutom kommer fokusgruppsintervjuer att göras med personalen för att undersöka vad de uppfattar som hindrande och underlättande faktorer för att införa den aktuella vårdrutinen. Om det visar sig att denna intervention är effektiv för att implementera hud-mot-hud kontakt så kan den även användas på andra sjukhus med liknande förutsättningar. Detta är ett forskningssamarbete mellan barnmorskeprogrammen vid Karolinska Institutet och Makerere university sprunget ur ett SIDA-stött Linneaus-Palme student och lärarutbyte vilket har gjort att vi har kunnat bygga upp ett hållbart och väl fungerande samarbete. I forskningsteamet ingår såväl läkare och barnmorskor som har ämnesspecifik kunskap, är förtrogna med både kvantitativ och kvalitativ metodik och som dessutom har gedigen erfarenhet och kunskap om de ugandiska förhållandena och miljön. Både seniora och junior forskare ingår i teamet samt ugandiska och svenska doktorander kommer troligtvis att knytas till projektet som i så fall kommer att handledas av forskare från båda universiteten. En av fördelarna med detta projekt är att det bygger på ett redan etablerat samarbete vilket möjliggör att på ett kostnadseffektivt sätt utveckla forskningssamarbetet mellan Karolinska Institutet och Makerere University och medföra en förstä Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Uganda Reproductive health care Population Policies/Programmes & Reproductive Health Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2014-4329-1 Sweden In Uganda 2% of mothers have uninterrupted skin-to-skin contacts (SSC) with their infant after birth, 83% of infants have hypothermia which is one of the leading causes of mortality in newborns and the rate of exclusively breastfeeding at 1 month is 57%.

Focus group interviews will be performed with the staff to investigate what they perceive as facilitating factors and barriers to implement SSC. If proven effective the intervention can be implemented in other low resource settings. This is a joint research collaboration originating from a Linneaus-Palme supported student and teacher exchange between the midwifery programmes at Karolinska Institutet and Makerere University. Oavbruten hud-mot-hud kontakt mellan mammor och deras nyfödda barn den första timmen efter födelsen har många positiva effekter. Bland annat har nyfödda barn som ligger hud-mot-hud mindre risk för undertemperatur och amningen initieras snabbare och frekvensen helamning ökar om hud-mot-hud kontakt tillämpas. Amning har också många välkända hälsoeffekter, bl.a. minskar risken för övre luftinfektioner, öroninflammationer och diarréer hos barnen. I Uganda har endast 2 % av mammorna och de nyfödda barnen hud-mot-hud kontakt efter förlossningen, upp till 83 % av de nyfödda har för låg temperatur och bara 57 % helammas vid en månads ålder och få helammas vid sex månaders ålder. Undertemperatur är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till att nyfödda barn dör och i länder som t.ex. Uganda, där tillgången till rent vatten är begränsat är det extra viktigt att inte barnen får bröstmjölksersättning. Om vårdrutinen hud-mot-hud kontakt inom den första timmen efter förlossningen implementeras skulle t.ex. andelen barn med undertemperatur minska, frekvensen helamning öka och det skulle även medföra andra positiva hälsoeffekter för mammor och barn. I lågresurser länder är det extra väsentligt att kostnader för implementering hålls nere och därför är det viktigt att hitta billiga implementeringsformer som också är enkla att införa. Detta projekt syftar därför till att undersöka om en enkel och billig intervention som vi har utvecklat är effektiv för att öka andelen mammor och barn som har hud-mot-hud kontakt efter förlossning, minska andelen nyfödda barn med undertemperatur och öka andelen mammor som helammar sina barn vid en månad. Vi kommer att visa en DVD för barnmorskor och läkare vid en förlossningsavdelning på ett sjukhus i Uganda och sjukhusledningen som innehåller information om barnets instinktiva beteende vid bröstet och fördelarna med hud-mot-hud kontakt mellan mödrar och nyfödda barn. Personalen har också möjlighet att ställa frågor i anslutning till visningen av DVDn. Broschyrer och postrar riktade till personalen kommer även att finnas tillgängliga. Innan denna intervention genomförs kommer 60 mammor och barn att observeras, bl.a. kommer vi att studera om hud-mot-hud kontakt tillämpas och om barnet suger på bröstet. Vi kommer även att mäta temperatur på barnen. En månad efter förlossningen kommer mammorna att intervjuas om barnets uppfödning och hur de uppfattar barnet. Två månader efter interventionen kommer motsvarande datainsamling att göras på ytterligare 60 mammor och barn. På så sätt kommer vi att få möjlighet att se om det sker några förändringar i andelen barn som har hud-mot-hud kontakt, har undertemperatur och som helammas efter att interventionen har införts . Dessutom kommer fokusgruppsintervjuer att göras med personalen för att undersöka vad de uppfattar som hindrande och underlättande faktorer för att införa den aktuella vårdrutinen. Om det visar sig att denna intervention är effektiv för att implementera hud-mot-hud kontakt så kan den även användas på andra sjukhus med liknande förutsättningar. Detta är ett forskningssamarbete mellan barnmorskeprogrammen vid Karolinska Institutet och Makerere university sprunget ur ett SIDA-stött Linneaus-Palme student och lärarutbyte vilket har gjort att vi har kunnat bygga upp ett hållbart och väl fungerande samarbete. I forskningsteamet ingår såväl läkare och barnmorskor som har ämnesspecifik kunskap, är förtrogna med både kvantitativ och kvalitativ metodik och som dessutom har gedigen erfarenhet och kunskap om de ugandiska förhållandena och miljön. Både seniora och junior forskare ingår i teamet samt ugandiska och svenska doktorander kommer troligtvis att knytas till projektet som i så fall kommer att handledas av forskare från båda universiteten. En av fördelarna med detta projekt är att det bygger på ett redan etablerat samarbete vilket möjliggör att på ett kostnadseffektivt sätt utveckla forskningssamarbetet mellan Karolinska Institutet och Makerere University och medföra en förstä Sweden Karolinska Institutet The Swedish Research Council Karolinska Institutet Gender Equality Aid to Environment Participatory Development/Good Governance Trade Development Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Mitigation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - Adaptation Aid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention to Combat Desertification Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH) Disaster Risk Reduction(DRR) Disability 264000 241000 245000 750000 Karolinska Institutet 264000 Karolinska Institutet 241000 Karolinska Institutet 245000 Karolinska Institutet SE-0-SE-29-2014-4330 Sweden Pneumococcal infections are the leading cause of death among children below 5 year worldwide.Ethiopia is among the 10 countries with the highest disease burden.

För att kunna ge upphov till ett skydd hos små barn har man utvecklat nya vacciner där man kopplat (konjugerat) utvalda sockerarter till ett äggviteämne, s.k. konjugatvacciner. Ett sådant vaccin används i Etiopien sedan 2011. Vaccinet har utvecklats i USA och Europa och det är osäkert om det har samma goda effekt i Afrika där dödligheten är särskilt hög i lunginflammation. För att kunna uppskatta nyttan av en vaccination i Etiopien vill vi veta hur stor del av de svåra infektionerna bland barn som orsakas av bakterier som täcks av vaccinet.

Towards Understanding the Visual Ecology and Navigation Strategies of Threatened Tropical Bees The Atlantic Rainforest is considere an important biodiversity hotspot for conservation priorities because it contains a diverse range of native species and is currently under threat from deforestation and climate change. This forest domain extends along the Brazilian coast, forming a north-south corridor through which species can disperse and make contact. In the state of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, 15% of the Atlantic Forest is left and more than 80% of the remnants fragments are smaller than 50 hectares. This alarming status compromises the existence of healthy populations of plants and wild animals, particularly those that provide essential ecosystem services such as the pollinators. Among the pollinators, bees are by far the most well understood and widely managed group. They ensure the production of seeds in most flowering plants (in natural communities and agro-ecosystems). Furthermore, bees also provide additional income for rural families, in the form of honey and other products; thus, declining bee populations affect the sustainable livelihoods of rural families. Two bee tribes of the Atlantic Rainforest are specially diversified and well known as important pollinators: Meliponini (the stingless bees) and the Euglossini (the orchid bees). In their quest for nectar and scent from various flower species these bees may navigate over many kilometres through the dense, cluttered rainforest. This is a remarkable feat given that they do this with a brain smaller than a sesame seed. Currently, nothing is known about how tropical bees navigate, or even manage to control their flight and avoid obstacles in such a complex and unpredictable environment. Understanding these aspects of tropical bee behaviour will provide important information for understanding their pollination activity and for designing effective practices for ensuring their conservation. Through this collaborative project, we will combine Isabela Alves dos Santo´s wealth of knowledge of Brazilian tropical bee biology, ecology and conservation with Emily Baird´s extensive experience of insect vision, flight control and navigation to understand how the complex rainforest environment shapes the visual system and navigation behaviour of tropical bees. Our first goal is to use anatomical and physiological investigations to analyse and compare the visual systems of two bee species from two important but distantly related tropical bee tribes, Euglossini and Meliponini . This will help us to understand how tropical bees perceive and process the visual information that is present in the rainforest environment. Our second goal is to use behavioural experiments to understand how tropical bee species use this visual information to control their flight, avoid obstacles and navigate through spatially and visually complex natural environments. This study will provide the first comprehensive investigation of the visual systems and flight control behaviour of tropical insects and will provide critical insights into understanding the ecology of these important rainforest pollinators. The results will allow us to gain a better understanding of the ecology of important rainforest pollinators and the impacts that the current threats to the tropical rainforest ecosystem will have on them. This knowledge can then be used to develop informed and effective conservation strategies that are necessary not only for the survival of the many different plants and animals that rely on the pollination services of bees but also for the sustainability of the communities that rely on bee products for self-sufficiency.

It is essential to identify underperforming regions and understand key causes of poor productivity. Regions where the yield gaps are large hold promise for increased production and food security. This focuses on Sub-Saharan Africa with large gaps between actual and potential yields. The aim is to understand the causes of large yield gaps and to integrate geophysical and socio-economic explanations for these. Yield maps will be created to study variations within and between villages, spatially and temporally. Socio-economic panel data will be combined with remote sensing and investigations in eight villages in Kenya and Ghana with focus on geophysical, socio-economic and political aspects. Thus we link geo-spatial data to socio-economic characteristics, combining detailed investigations with large spatial coverage, and thus progressing beyond site-specific observations and conclusions. Rapporter om skördenivåer världen runt visar ofta nivåer som planar ut eller till och med sjunker samtidigt som skördarna kan variera stort inom och mellan regioner. För att möta den förväntade befolkningsökningen och den ökning av konsumtionen per capita som ett ökande välstånd medför måste jordbruket höja produktionen och produktiviteten dramatiskt, utan att äventyra den miljömässiga och ekologiska hållbarheten. Skillnaden mellan den skördenivå man skulle kunna uppnå på en plats genom att använda bästa möjliga produktionsmetoder och den nivå man verkligen uppnår kallas ofta skördegap?. Beräknade skördegap kan användas som ett mått på potentiella skördeökningar. Om orsakerna till gapen kan identifieras kan dessa användas för att utveckla effektiva insatser för att höja produktiviteten. Afrika söder om Sahara uppvisar stora skördegap. Jordbrukssystemen och landskapen där är också ofta mycket komplexa vilket gör det svårt att undersöka orsakssambanden mellan produktionsfaktorer och skördenivå. Det övergripande målet för detta projekt är att integrera studier av biofysiska och socioekonomiska faktorer för att hitta förklaringar till skördegapen. Mer specifikt vill vi bestämma orsakerna till skördegap i olika skalor (bynivå, landskap, region) och i olika tidsperspektiv. Vidare kommer vi att analysera skördegapens fördelningskonsekvenser, d.v.s. hur de påverkar befolkningen i olika välståndskategorier, samt fördelningskonsekvenserna av olika tekniker som kan användas för att intensifiera jordbruksproduktionen. Det är svårt att i frågor om jordbrukets utveckling klart åtskilja sociala, ekonomiska och institutionella faktorer från de agroekologiska och geofysiska. Ett forskningsprojekt kring skördegap i Afrika söder om Sahara, Afrint? (namnet kombinerat av Africa och intensification), har gett ett stort intervjumaterial med framför allt socioekonomiska data från gårds- och bynivå. Informationen har till en del kunnat förklara den skördegap man identifierat i studieområdena. I det här projektet ska vi komplettera de befintliga materialet bl a med nya biofysiska och agronomiska data så att vi kan fylla kunskapsluckor om; (1) betydelsen av socioekonomiska respektive biofysiska faktorer för att förklara skördegapen, 2) huruvida tidsserier och historiska data kan ge information om ihålligheten hos de faktorer som kontrollerar skördenivåerna, 3) fallstudier av betydelsen av den rumsliga variationen inom gårdarna, och 4) hur olika skalor från gårdsnivå till regional nivå ska kunna länkas så att man kan dra slutsatser som är giltiga i större skala än den enskilda gården och byn. För att genomföra detta skall vi med hjälp av kamerautrustade *drönare* (s.k. UAS-teknik) och satellitbilder ta fram flygbilder för enskilda gårdar, för byar och regioner. Från bildmaterialet kommer skördenivåerna för olika områden att skattas utifrån empiriska samband mellan vegetationsindex (från flygbilder) och mätning av verklig skörd på marken utifrån vilka vi ska producera skördenivåkartor. För några delområden kommer mer detaljerade studier att genomföras där förklarande variabler hämtas från vår databas genom Afrint-projektet samt från nya fältundersökningar. De senare inkluderar insamling av jord- och grödodata, samt intervjuer med kompletterande frågor om t.ex. nuvarande och historisk skötsel av grödor och jordar. Dessa ska användas för att bekräfta och förklara de mönster i skördenivåer och skördegap som framgår av de producerade kartorna. Detaljstudierna kommer att genomföras i två områden vardera i Ghana och Kenya. I varje område kommer två byar att studeras; en med större och en med mindre skördegap enligt Afrint-data. I samtliga fall skall byar där spannmålsodling (majs, ris mm) dominerar väljas eftersom detta är en förutsättning för att metodiken ska kunna tillämpas på samma sätt i alla de olika studieområdena.

India has also seen multiple armed conflicts affecting many of its states and union territories. So, does gender inequality increase the risk of armed conflict? And would more gender equality instead provide greater opportunities for a non-violent approach? The purpose of this project is to address these questions through statistical analysis of new micro-level data and qualitative fieldwork in India. Prior research has found robust support for a relationship between gender inequality and violent conflict on the country-level. Such research has also indicated that better gender equality instead can serve to improve a society?s capacity to resist violence. However, many propositions for why inequality would be related to the risk of violent conflict rely on notions about norms, grievances and capacity which operate at a local level and may not be fully captured by country-level data. In fact, both violent conflict and inequality vary significantly within countries, not least in a country as large and diverse as India. By combining a statistical analysis of all 640 districts with fieldwork in two regions that differ substantially in terms of equality and women?s status (Meghalaya and Uttar Pradesh), this project contributes by improving our understanding of the mechanisms behind inequality and violent conflict, which is also of utmost practical concern. Spelar jämställdhet någon roll för om en konflikt blir våldsam? Och har mer jämställda samhällen en större chans att hantera konflikter utan blodutgjutelse? Forskningen visar på att länder som har inte har jämställdhet oftare är inblandade både i mellanstatliga konflikter och i inbördeskrig. Dessutom är krig mer våldsamma i länder där kvinnor har låg status. Att få en bättre förståelse av varför jämställdhet och konflikt verkar hänga samman är inte bara akademiskt viktigt; det är också värdefullt för samhället i stort. I Indien har de senaste årens utveckling satt våld mot kvinnor och frågor om jämställdhet högt på den politiska dagordningen. Men frågan är även mycket aktuell utanför Indien. Den välkända FN-resolutionen 1325 om kvinnor, fred och säkerhet understryker vikten av att bättre förstå hur jämställdhet påverkar både konflikt och fred. Men varför skulle jämställdhet påverka risken för våldsam konflikt? Det finns flera olika förklaringar. Vissa forskare menar att negativa mansroller, så kallad hypermaskulinitet, leder till en ökad risk för att ?lösa? konflikter genom att ta till våld. Detta för att hypermaskulinitet förordar styrka och tuffhet som de enda sättet att hantera en konflikt. Medling och förståelse ses som svagheter. Det gör det möjligt att både lätt rekrytera män till stridande grupper och normativt sanktionera ett våldsbeteende. Andra forskare föreslår att det snarare är så att ett jämställt samhälle med högt kvinnligt deltagande minskar risken för våldsam konflikt. Det är för att satsningar på att förbättra kvinnors situation betyder att hela samhället får en högre kapacitet och därmed fler nätverk som kan användas för att lösa konflikter utan våld. Kvinnor kan också ha mindre att vinna på en konflikt och därför vara motiverade att motverka mobilisering och våldsanvändning. Ett problem för att besvara forskningsfrågan är dock att vi hittills undersökt den på en för hög nivå, dvs. landnivå. Det är problematiskt eftersom konflikter varierar mycket inom ett land. Ett viktigt exempel är Indien, ett land med en befolkning större än USA:s och Europas tillsammans, som har ett flertal konflikter men där mycket få av dem påverkar mer än några enstaka distrikt. På samma sätt är det med jämställdhet. T.ex. så finns det stora skillnader i kvinnors läskunnighet, politiska deltagande och representation bland Indiens 640 distrikt. För att bättre förstå länken mellan jämställdhet och konflikt behöver vi därför gräva djupare än att bara jämföra mellan länder. Indien är ett mycket bra land att studera närmare. Analysen underlättas av att informationen om landet också är mycket bra. Den indiska staten samlar hela tiden in en imponerande mängd material för varje distrikt vilket också gör att man lätt kan undersöka skillnader och utveckling. Projektet bidrar till att öka förståelsen om kopplingen mellan jämställdhet och våldsamma konflikter på två sätt. För det första sammanställer och analyserar projektet helt nyproducerad information om jämställdhet och konflikt i Indiens alla distrikt. Konfliktdataprogrammet vid Uppsala Universitet, som är världsledande när det gäller att samla in och kategorisera data om väpnade konflikter, har precis sammanställt information om alla konflikter på distriktsnivå i Indien. Projektet kan därför bidra på ett unikt sätt till forskningen genom denna detaljerade information. Den statistiska analysen kombineras sedan med fältarbete för att undersöka dynamiken djupare. Projektet intervjuar kvinnoorganisationer och aktörer på plats. T.ex. i staterna Meghalaya and Uttar Pradesh finns det distrikt som antigen valt att lösa sina konflikter med våld eller mer fredligt. De har också en mycket stor variation i kvinnors situation. För det andra görs ett teoretiskt bidrag genom att strukturera upp olika förklaringar och testa hur starka de är. På det sättet kan vi mer tydligt förstå varför jämställdhet och konflikt hänger samman.

Barnarbete och skolgång i Indien Enligt siffror från ILO arbetade år 2008 176 miljoner barn i åldrarna 6-14 år. Majoriteten av de arbetande barnen är verksamma inom jordbrukssektorn, snarare än tillverkningssektorn. Dessutom är de flesta barnen ?anställda? av sina föräldrar på den egna gården eller i det egna familjeföretaget. Det är därför oerhört viktigt att studera barnarbete från hushållets perspektiv. I det här projektet studerar vi olika faktorer som kan påverka familjers beslut att låta barn arbeta, samt vilka konsekvenser arbetet får för barnen. Den första delen av projektet är inriktat på imperfekta marknader för mark, arbetskraft och kredit och vill belysa framförallt hur kreditmarknaden tillsammans med jordägande påverkar barnarbete och skolgång i Indien. Detta möjliggörs av detaljerad data som innehåller information om bland annat hushållets lån. I den andra delen av projektet kommer vi att utvärdera effekten av en lag om obligatorisk skolgång för barn i åldrarna 6-14 år.

Förutom att studera effekterna på de direkt berörda barnen kommer vi också att studera eventuella effekter på deras syskon.

One under-researched reason for the continuation of the conflicts and the failure in resolving them may be that the Caucasus is captured in what Rothstein has called a ?social trap? that collectively destructive outcomes are maintained as a result of individually ?rational? calculations that depart from presumptions (even prejudices) of what the other involved actors are going to do (Rothstein, 2005). ?The increasingly negative and stereotypical image of the ?other? is yet another and novel obstacle to conflict resolution? (Cheterian, 2012, p. 1646). Breaking such vicious circles is difficult, as the literature shows, but with a third party present (in this case EU or other international intermediaries), the prospects look brighter. For the third party to achieve success there is a need for knowledge of precisely what these individual calculations are based upon. Specifically, how conflicting partners try to balance domestic and international pressures and demands, and how perceptions of these pressures could create deadlock, are questions of great policy-relevance, as Evans, Jacobsen & Putnam show. Until now, these questions have been under-researched, which makes them even more important for study. Detta projekt fokuserar på den instabila och underutvecklade Kaukasus-regionen och strävar efter att förstå de dominerande tankemönster bland eliter och befolkning som bidrar till att båda göda de frusna konflikter som lever kvar och skapa hinder för fortsatt utveckling och demokratisering. Georgien, Armenien, och Azerbaijan är de tre självständiga stater som idag formar (södra) Kaukasus. Därutöver finns de facto-staterna Abkasien, Syd-Ossetien och Nagorno-Karabakh. Regionen äre i ett geopolitiskt korstryck mellan Ryssland, EU och USA, och har genom sina energitillgångar en strategisk betydelse som är avsevärd. Trots en mångfald försök att medla och söka nå lösningar på de djupa och komplexa konflikter som präglar regionen, har internationella aktörer med EU och OSCE i spetsen bara nått ytterst begränsade resultat. Situationen är låst och södra Kaukasus har därmed utvecklats till en av de allra mest explosiva och farliga i Europas grannskap. Den konfliktbild som existerar lägger hinder i vägen för ekonomisk utveckling, demokratisering och regionalt samarbete som i hög grad är nödvändig. I projektet är det vår ambition att undersöka de verklighetsbilder och synsätt som ?styr? både ledande nationella och internationella aktörer som är aktiva i regionen, liksom hur regionens befolkningar ser på säkerhet och risk. Att på detta sätt öka kunskapen om dominerande synsätt och diskurser ser vi som ett nödvändigt bidrag till ett både mera anpassat, lyhört och ?nära? bistånd genom vad som idag är EU:s Östra partnerskap (EaP), och en mer informerad och därmed förhoppningsvis mer effektiv konfliktlösning. Vi hävdar i projektet att säkerhetsbegreppet måste betraktas brett och inte endast riktas in på militär utan också mänsklig säkerhet och trygghet där jämställdhet, korruption, mänskliga rättighet och miljö är viktiga inslag.

One under-researched reason for the continuation of the conflicts and the failure in resolving them may be that the Caucasus is captured in what Rothstein has called a ?social trap? that collectively destructive outcomes are maintained as a result of individually ?rational? calculations that depart from presumptions (even prejudices) of what the other involved actors are going to do (Rothstein, 2005). ?The increasingly negative and stereotypical image of the ?other? is yet another and novel obstacle to conflict resolution? (Cheterian, 2012, p. 1646). Breaking such vicious circles is difficult, as the literature shows, but with a third party present (in this case EU or other international intermediaries), the prospects look brighter. For the third party to achieve success there is a need for knowledge of precisely what these individual calculations are based upon. Specifically, how conflicting partners try to balance domestic and international pressures and demands, and how perceptions of these pressures could create deadlock, are questions of great policy-relevance, as Evans, Jacobsen & Putnam show. Until now, these questions have been under-researched, which makes them even more important for study. Detta projekt fokuserar på den instabila och underutvecklade Kaukasus-regionen och strävar efter att förstå de dominerande tankemönster bland eliter och befolkning som bidrar till att båda göda de frusna konflikter som lever kvar och skapa hinder för fortsatt utveckling och demokratisering. Georgien, Armenien, och Azerbaijan är de tre självständiga stater som idag formar (södra) Kaukasus. Därutöver finns de facto-staterna Abkasien, Syd-Ossetien och Nagorno-Karabakh. Regionen äre i ett geopolitiskt korstryck mellan Ryssland, EU och USA, och har genom sina energitillgångar en strategisk betydelse som är avsevärd. Trots en mångfald försök att medla och söka nå lösningar på de djupa och komplexa konflikter som präglar regionen, har internationella aktörer med EU och OSCE i spetsen bara nått ytterst begränsade resultat. Situationen är låst och södra Kaukasus har därmed utvecklats till en av de allra mest explosiva och farliga i Europas grannskap. Den konfliktbild som existerar lägger hinder i vägen för ekonomisk utveckling, demokratisering och regionalt samarbete som i hög grad är nödvändig. I projektet är det vår ambition att undersöka de verklighetsbilder och synsätt som ?styr? både ledande nationella och internationella aktörer som är aktiva i regionen, liksom hur regionens befolkningar ser på säkerhet och risk.

Untreated excreta that enters the environment not only threatens people’s health but also leads to eutrophication and degradation of aquatic ecosystems due to the nutrients in human excrement being the same essential nutrients for plant growth: nitrogen, phosphate and potassium (N-P-K) (Jönsson et al., 2004). The main objective of the cartridge based sanitation system is to design an on-situ sanitation treatment system that would contain, treat and concentrate excreta and output a dry, commercial, fertilizer. The toilet functions as follows: the urine-diverting seat would channel the urine into the alkaline cartridge which would rapidly increase the pH of the urine to above 10 by ion exchange to limit the enzymatic-hydrolysis of urea. Next, the urine would flow to the dehydration cartridge which would contain ash (5% w/w) to insure high pH (>10) and act as an adsorbance medium during dehydration by ventilation (9 m3 hr-1). The dehydration module would be solar heated to reach average temperature of 35ºC (maximum peak temperature 40ºC). By diverting the urine away from the faeces, simpler treatments for the drier faeces maybe implemented – this is not part of the scope for this grant application. The objective is to prolong the retention time to minimize risk of handling and maximize natural decay rates. The cartridges will be designed to service a family of five and functioned to reduce the mass of excreta by >90%. There are four main activities. • Activity 1 is the development of urine treatment system: alkaline cartridge and dehydration cartridge • Activity 2 is the evaluation of survival rate of pathogens within the system • Activity 3 is the field trial of the full scale system in Uganda and South Africa • Activity 4 is plant trial with the concentrated urine produced from the toilets Based on preliminary results, the alkaline and dehydration cartridges would achieve 90% mass reduction of the urine within 24 hrs, while preserving 70-90% of nitrogen as urea. Odours would be limited by minimizing ammonia emissions and having negative pressure within the toilet. The final output from the urine would be a dry powdered fertilizer with a N-P-K mass percent of 9-3-11 – a concentrated, stable, storable and bag-able fertilizers, with a potential commercial value of 290$ per metric ton (USDA, 2013). This correspond to a value of 52 $ UDS for a family of five if all the nutrients would be collected (this value is based on world market price and local prices can be higher due to transport and retail addition or lower due to governmental subsidies). The installation costs of the toilet are estimated to be more than a VIP latrine and less than twin-pit or pour-flush system. The annual material costs are estimated at 30$ USD a year (only material costs were considered, as labour costs vary greatly). Overall, the risk for disease transmission from the system would be minimal due to the elevated pH and low moisture content. The true innovation of this cartridge based sanitation system is that no highly mechanized treatments or monitoring systems are required which otherwise can inhibit the use of improved sanitation systems. By dehydrating the urine within 24 hrs, there would be no liquid disposal. Therefore, there would be no need for vacuum trucks or other complex, potentially, unsanitary manual emptying, making this sanitation system suitable for areas where mechanical emptying by service trucks is not possible. Sanitet är en grundläggande mänsklig rättighet, samtidigt behandlas inte avföringen från 4,1 miljarder människor alls.

Behandlingssystemet vi kommer att utveckla, är avsett för en familj på fem, och utformas för att avvattna urinen, och minska dess volym med mer än 90% samtidigt som all växtnäring hålls kvar i en fast fraktion.

In this context, government aid agencies hold important roles as contractors, coordinators, steering agents, and spokespersons of development actors and activities. As part of sovereign states’ bilateral relations, they also add to the technical dimensions of development cooperation a concern for foreign diplomacy, state sovereignty, and domestic politics. Recent years of ethnographic research on development and foreign aid has seen an enhanced interest in the inside of international development organisations. However, scant attention has been devoted to foreign government agencies, especially with regards to their role and operations in a particular partner country. Moreover, while this new wave of scholarship delves into the life worlds of aid workers, one group of practitioners that remains unexplored are the many local or in-country development experts working at the field offices of foreign aid actors. This research project addresses the experiences and roles of local development practitioners employed in foreign government aid agencies, as a new entry point to the study of the organisational inside of international development agencies, the life worlds of aid workers, and the institutional history and present landscape of development cooperation in a given country. Local staffs often constitute the majority of employees in international field offices – some of whom hold expert positions. Given the attraction of foreign government jobs, local experts holding such positions often have prior experience from other foreign aid agencies or domestic government offices. Hence they represent a group of aid experts with comparatively vast professional experience of development cooperation in the given country. By exploring the career trajectories of these local staffs, the project informs on the contemporary landscape of aid and how it has changed over time in a specific developing country. Studying the experiences of local staffs may also offer more reflexive insights into the world of international aid. While the global dominance of Western expertise means that its expatriate practitioners are rarely challenged by alternative ontologies, local experts are more likely to be exposed to different understandings of development, and thus more inclined to reflect critically on their own knowledge as well as other’s. The project also studies the professional roles and responsibilities of local staff in relation to those of sent-out staff, and the formal and informal boundaries created and negotiated between the two employee groups within office walls. By looking at how questions of trust, authority, differentiation, and inclusion influence everyday administration, decision-making, and cooperation, the project investigates how normative and power-related dimensions of international development cooperation are articulated in the socio-professional space of foreign government field offices. The two-year project centres on aid agencies operating in Rwanda, a country with intense international development cooperation, hosting numerous foreign government agencies. It is based on professional life story interviews with local and international staffs, observations of the discourses and everyday practices of the field offices, and archival research of the agencies’ staff policy, work distribution, and operational regulation. Dagens internationella utvecklingssamarbete präglas av två djupgående trender: å ena sidan en strävan mot ökad biståndsharmonisering och effektivitet, å andra sidan en ökad fragmentering av biståndet till följd av att allt fler utvecklingsinsatser läggs ut på entreprenad hos civila samhällsorganisationer, konsultfirmor och lokala aktörer i samarbetslandet. I denna kontext har statliga internationella biståndsorganisationer fått en betydande roll som uppdragsgivare, samordnare, styrinstrument, och språkrör för olika biståndsaktörer och utvecklingsinstatser. Som del i staters bilaterala relationer tillför de även till utvecklingssamarbetets tekniska dimensioner frågor kring diplomati, statlig suveränitet, och inhemska politiska intressen. Senare års antropologiska forskning om internationellt utvecklingssamarbete har intresserat sig för den organisatoriska insidan hos biståndsaktörer, med fokus på det vardagsbyråkratiska arbetet och organisationernas interna system, strukturer och språkbruk. Dock har mycket lite uppmärksamhet getts just statliga myndigheter, framförallt deras verksamhet i ett särskilt utvecklingsland. De studier som gjorts har också utforskat biståndsarbetarna själva, i termer av deras yrkesvardag, bakgrund, erfarenheter och perspektiv på utveckling. Dock har ”biståndsarbetaren” i detta sammanhang antagits vara en tillresande expert av västerländsk bakgrund, och man har därmed förbisett de många lokalanställda experter som arbetar inom internationella biståndsorganisationer. Detta forskningsprojekt studerar lokala biståndsarbetares erfarenheter och roller vid fältkontoren hos utländska utvecklingsmyndigheter, som en ny empirisk ingång till studiet av biståndsorganisationers insida, biståndsarbetares perspektiv och vardag, samt den lokala biståndsindustrin i ett givet land. Lokalanställda utgör ofta majoriteten av anställda på de utländska fältkonteren, där en del innehar samma positioner som utsänd personal. Till skillnad från utsänd personal, vars kontrakt sällan sträcker sig längre än några år, utgör många lokalanställda myndighetens institutionella minne i och med deras relativt längre anställningsperiod. På grund av konkurrensen om utländska statliga jobb har många lokalanställda tidigare erfarenhet från andra inhemska eller utländska biståndsorganisationer. Således representerar de även en grupp utvecklingsexperter med omfattande kunskap om utvecklingsarbete i landet i stort. Genom att studera dessa experters karriärvägar och professionella erfarenheter ger projektet inblick i längsiktiga trender i internationellt biståndsarbete både på nationell nivå liksom inom särskilda sektorer och institutioner. En studie av lokalanställdas erfarenheter, kunskap och synsätt erbjuder potentiellt ett mer reflexivt perspektiv på internationellt utvecklingssamarbete och dess normativa och maktrelaterade dimensioner. I och med den globala dominans som västerländsk kunskap på utveckling åtnjuter utmanas få av dess (utsända) experter av alternativa synsätt. Lokala experter däremot har sannolikt kommit att konfonteras med olika synsätt på utveckling och därför också kommit att reflektera kritiskt över sin egen liksom andras kunskap och förståelse. Projektet studerar även de roller som lokalanställda spelar i relation till utsänd personal, och de formella och informella gränser som skapas och omförhandlas mellan de två personalgrupperna. Syftet är att undersöka hur normativa och maktrelaterade dimensioner av internationellt utvecklingssamarbete artikuleras mellan väggarna på statliga biståndskontor där frågor kring tillit, insyn, representation och inkludering präglar vardagligt beslutsfattande, samarbete och administration. Studien ämnar på så sätt bidra till existerande forskning om biståndets avpolitiserande tendenser och utmaningarna i dagens strävan efter ett ”neutralt”, tekniskt utvecklingssamarbete.

Given the attraction of foreign government jobs, local experts holding such positions often have prior experience from other foreign aid agencies or domestic government offices. Hence they represent a group of aid experts with comparatively vast professional experience of development cooperation in the given country. By exploring the career trajectories of these local staffs, the project informs on the contemporary landscape of aid and how it has changed over time in a specific developing country. Studying the experiences of local staffs may also offer more reflexive insights into the world of international aid. While the global dominance of Western expertise means that its expatriate practitioners are rarely challenged by alternative ontologies, local experts are more likely to be exposed to different understandings of development, and thus more inclined to reflect critically on their own knowledge as well as other’s. The project also studies the professional roles and responsibilities of local staff in relation to those of sent-out staff, and the formal and informal boundaries created and negotiated between the two employee groups within office walls. By looking at how questions of trust, authority, differentiation, and inclusion influence everyday administration, decision-making, and cooperation, the project investigates how normative and power-related dimensions of international development cooperation are articulated in the socio-professional space of foreign government field offices. The two-year project centres on aid agencies operating in Rwanda, a country with intense international development cooperation, hosting numerous foreign government agencies. It is based on professional life story interviews with local and international staffs, observations of the discourses and everyday practices of the field offices, and archival research of the agencies’ staff policy, work distribution, and operational regulation. Dagens internationella utvecklingssamarbete präglas av två djupgående trender: å ena sidan en strävan mot ökad biståndsharmonisering och effektivitet, å andra sidan en ökad fragmentering av biståndet till följd av att allt fler utvecklingsinsatser läggs ut på entreprenad hos civila samhällsorganisationer, konsultfirmor och lokala aktörer i samarbetslandet. I denna kontext har statliga internationella biståndsorganisationer fått en betydande roll som uppdragsgivare, samordnare, styrinstrument, och språkrör för olika biståndsaktörer och utvecklingsinstatser. Som del i staters bilaterala relationer tillför de även till utvecklingssamarbetets tekniska dimensioner frågor kring diplomati, statlig suveränitet, och inhemska politiska intressen. Senare års antropologiska forskning om internationellt utvecklingssamarbete har intresserat sig för den organisatoriska insidan hos biståndsaktörer, med fokus på det vardagsbyråkratiska arbetet och organisationernas interna system, strukturer och språkbruk. Dock har mycket lite uppmärksamhet getts just statliga myndigheter, framförallt deras verksamhet i ett särskilt utvecklingsland. De studier som gjorts har också utforskat biståndsarbetarna själva, i termer av deras yrkesvardag, bakgrund, erfarenheter och perspektiv på utveckling. Dock har ”biståndsarbetaren” i detta sammanhang antagits vara en tillresande expert av västerländsk bakgrund, och man har därmed förbisett de många lokalanställda experter som arbetar inom internationella biståndsorganisationer. Detta forskningsprojekt studerar lokala biståndsarbetares erfarenheter och roller vid fältkontoren hos utländska utvecklingsmyndigheter, som en ny empirisk ingång till studiet av biståndsorganisationers insida, biståndsarbetares perspektiv och vardag, samt den lokala biståndsindustrin i ett givet land. Lokalanställda utgör ofta majoriteten av anställda på de utländska fältkonteren, där en del innehar samma positioner som utsänd personal. Till skillnad från utsänd personal, vars kontrakt sällan sträcker sig längre än några år, utgör många lokalanställda myndighetens institutionella minne i och med deras relativt längre anställningsperiod. På grund av konkurrensen om utländska statliga jobb har många lokalanställda tidigare erfarenhet från andra inhemska eller utländska biståndsorganisationer. Således representerar de även en grupp utvecklingsexperter med omfattande kunskap om utvecklingsarbete i landet i stort. Genom att studera dessa experters karriärvägar och professionella erfarenheter ger projektet inblick i längsiktiga trender i internationellt biståndsarbete både på nationell nivå liksom inom särskilda sektorer och institutioner. En studie av lokalanställdas erfarenheter, kunskap och synsätt erbjuder potentiellt ett mer reflexivt perspektiv på internationellt utvecklingssamarbete och dess normativa och maktrelaterade dimensioner. I och med den globala dominans som västerländsk kunskap på utveckling åtnjuter utmanas få av dess (utsända) experter av alternativa synsätt. Lokala experter däremot har sannolikt kommit att konfonteras med olika synsätt på utveckling och därför också kommit att reflektera kritiskt över sin egen liksom andras kunskap och förståelse. Projektet studerar även de roller som lokalanställda spelar i relation till utsänd personal, och de formella och informella gränser som skapas och omförhandlas mellan de två personalgrupperna. Syftet är att undersöka hur normativa och maktrelaterade dimensioner av internationellt utvecklingssamarbete artikuleras mellan väggarna på statliga biståndskontor där frågor kring tillit, insyn, representation och inkludering präglar vardagligt beslutsfattande, samarbete och administration. Studien ämnar på så sätt bidra till existerande forskning om biståndets avpolitiserande tendenser och utmaningarna i dagens strävan efter ett ”neutralt”, tekniskt utvecklingssamarbete.

Timely care is a prerequisite to reduce morbidity and mortality and it can be significantly improved in resource-poor settings by teleconsultation systems to support the provision of appropriate and timely care. A teleconsultation system for acute burn care is currently under implementation in the Western Cape, South Africa. An application (app) is installed on a smartphone located in each of the emergency services of 8 hospitals to transmit visual and textual information between emergency staff at point of care and a network of burn teleexperts. The burns specialist on call is informed via instant messaging that a case has been uploaded and can then review the visually transmitted information and images and provide diagnostic and treatment advice. The primary aim of the project is to assess how a teleconsultation system for acute burn injury care based on a smartphone application can impact on the delivery of emergency care for burns victims, both in terms of clinical management and site of care. Intermediate aims are to assess the clinical quality, clinical outcomes, user perspective, and costs and benefits of the teleconsultation system. The clinical quality will include assessments of diagnostic accuracy and patient management. Bedside diagnosis or image based diagnosis by burns experts will be used as gold standard. A historical cohort design will be used to assess the effect of the teleconsultation system on patient outcomes. The Health Information Technology Usability Evaluation Model will be used to assess how the users experience the system and the system’s cost-utility will be assessed in terms of cost per quality-adjusted life-year gained. A stepwise implementation of the system is planned in Tanzania and Ethiopia starting the beginning of 2016. The burn specialists already involved in South Africa will act as experts for the two additional countries and the existing south-south network of emergency specialists will safeguard the communication and implementation of the system. This proposal will build on the evaluation already started in South Africa and will allow a more robust and comprehensive evaluation of the whole system. Furthermore, the inclusion of other settings will add important contextual aspects to the evaluation. The first part of the evaluation will include the hospitals currently using the teleconsultation system in the Western Cape, South Africa and 2-3 hospitals where the system will be introduced in Tanzania. Later on, 2-3 hospitals in Ethiopia will be introduced to the system, informed by the process in Tanzania, and those hospitals will be included in the evaluation. Low cost and timely alternatives to burn injury control are a pressing need in many low- and middle-income settings and countries.

The issue is of relevance for understanding the development of civil society in developing countries. Although local economic innovations have been encouraged by Chinese central authorities, diversity in political solutions is a much more sensitive question for the central leadership. But as different localities face different social challenges they also develop a variety of strategies and methods to organize local governance and handle relations to local society. This study will focus on the interaction of the city government and civil society in three selected cities that differ in significant ways. The study compares two relatively prosperous cities with distinctly different governance models, Hangzhou and Guangzhou, with Lanzhou, a city from one of China’s poorest provinces. Theories of political opportunity structures (POS) will be used to examine the differences between the cities in terms of civil society mobilization. The project aims to (1) examine how the political opportunity structures differ between the cities and (2) how these differences affect the mobilization of local civil society. Three dimensions of POS will be examined: formal political institutions, configuration of power, and informal elite strategies. The study is designed as a comparative case study based on in-depth interviews with local officials and civil society actors and analysis of official documents. The project questions the image of politics in China as monolithic and aims to offer important insights into the variance of political realities that local politicians and local civil society are facing in different parts of China. By examining varieties of governance models in different localities, poor as well as more prosperous, this research will contribute to our understanding of how civil society in the least developed countries as well as regions within countries may develop. The project addresses the first aim of the Swedish government’s platform for development aid (Skr 2013/14:131): Strengthened democracy and equality, increased respect for human rights and freedom from oppression. Det har länge varit uppenbart att det finns stora sociala, kulturella och ekonomiska skillnader inom Kina. Detta har även avspeglat sig i den variation av ekonomiska utvecklingsmodeller som vuxit fram i olika delar av landet. Men när det gäller politiska lösningar finns det en utbredd uppfattning om att Kina ser likadant ut överallt. Detta stämmer såtillvida att det politiska systemet i princip är detsamma över hela landet och att lokala politiker styrs av partiets centralstyrda hierarkiska nomenklaturasystem. Men för lokala myndigheter skiljer sig den sociala, ekonomiska och politiska verkligheten åt mellan olika platser. Detta ger upphov till olika sätt för lokala myndigheter att hantera den lokala politiska situationen. De strategier och metoder som myndigheter i den välmående staden Hangzhou använder sig av för att bemöta och interagera med medborgare och civilsamhälle skiljer sig mycket åt från lokalpolitikerna i det fattigare Lanzhou. Till exempel har myndigheterna i Hangzhou utvecklat ett sofistikerat system för dialog med civilsamhället och ger årligen en del medborgare möjlighet att betygsätta lokala myndigheters prestationer. I Lanzhou förlitar sig det politiska ledarskapet troligtvis i större grad på traditionella och mer auktoritära metoder för att hantera krav från medborgare. Även om centralregimen skickar ut instruktioner och order om hur lokala myndigheter skall hantera relationerna med civilsamhället måste lokalpolitikerna också ta hänsyn till den lokala verkligheten. Det finns för detta syfte ett visst utrymme för att utveckla lokala politiska reformer. Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är att undersöka variationsutrymmet för politiska lösningar i auktoritära regimer. Detta skall studeras genom att undersöka hur lokala myndigheter och civilsamhället interagerar i tre olika kinesiska städer (Hangzhou, Guangzhou och Lanzhou), samt hur den lokala politiska strukturen påverkar civilsamhällets möjligheter till politisk mobilisering. Teorin om politiska möjlighetsstrukturer (political opportunity structures POS) ligger till grund för undersökningen. Speciellt fokus kommer att läggas på betydelsen av (1) nya formella former för politiskt deltagande, (2) skillnader i hur lokal massmedia, domstolar och folkförsamling agerar samt (3) lokala myndigheters strategier och attityder till civilsamhället. Dessa aspekter av politiska möjligheter skall analyseras i relation till hur civilsamhället kan mobilisera resurser för att driva politiska och sociala frågor. I en jämförande fallstudie, i nära samarbete med kinesiska forskare, kommer en stor mängd lokala politiker och representanter för civilsamhället i de tre städerna att intervjuas. Vidare skall dokument som relaterar till den lokala styrningsmodellen analyseras. Detta projekt är viktigt för att förstå hur auktoritära stater fungerar i praktiken. Det ifrågasätter också bilden av ett enhetligt politiskt system där lokala myndigheter styr civilsamhället på samma sätt överallt och medborgarnas relation till myndigheter är densamma oberoende av man befinner sig. Att förstå dessa skillnader är också viktigt för att kunna analysera och förutse framtida förändringar eftersom lokala politiska förändringar ibland kan spridas och i slutändan påverka hela nationen. Även om studien tittar specifikt på fallet Kina har denna forskning betydelse också för andra auktoritära utvecklingsländer. Skillnader i politiska styrningsmodeller mellan socioekonomiskt mer eller mindre utvecklade regioner visar hur civilsamhällets möjligheter att agera förändras när samhället utvecklas.

The issue is of relevance for understanding the development of civil society in developing countries. Although local economic innovations have been encouraged by Chinese central authorities, diversity in political solutions is a much more sensitive question for the central leadership. But as different localities face different social challenges they also develop a variety of strategies and methods to organize local governance and handle relations to local society. This study will focus on the interaction of the city government and civil society in three selected cities that differ in significant ways. The study compares two relatively prosperous cities with distinctly different governance models, Hangzhou and Guangzhou, with Lanzhou, a city from one of China’s poorest provinces. Theories of political opportunity structures (POS) will be used to examine the differences between the cities in terms of civil society mobilization. The project aims to (1) examine how the political opportunity structures differ between the cities and (2) how these differences affect the mobilization of local civil society. Three dimensions of POS will be examined: formal political institutions, configuration of power, and informal elite strategies. The study is designed as a comparative case study based on in-depth interviews with local officials and civil society actors and analysis of official documents. The project questions the image of politics in China as monolithic and aims to offer important insights into the variance of political realities that local politicians and local civil society are facing in different parts of China. By examining varieties of governance models in different localities, poor as well as more prosperous, this research will contribute to our understanding of how civil society in the least developed countries as well as regions within countries may develop. The project addresses the first aim of the Swedish government’s platform for development aid (Skr 2013/14:131): Strengthened democracy and equality, increased respect for human rights and freedom from oppression. Det har länge varit uppenbart att det finns stora sociala, kulturella och ekonomiska skillnader inom Kina. Detta har även avspeglat sig i den variation av ekonomiska utvecklingsmodeller som vuxit fram i olika delar av landet. Men när det gäller politiska lösningar finns det en utbredd uppfattning om att Kina ser likadant ut överallt. Detta stämmer såtillvida att det politiska systemet i princip är detsamma över hela landet och att lokala politiker styrs av partiets centralstyrda hierarkiska nomenklaturasystem. Men för lokala myndigheter skiljer sig den sociala, ekonomiska och politiska verkligheten åt mellan olika platser. Detta ger upphov till olika sätt för lokala myndigheter att hantera den lokala politiska situationen.

World Health Organization (WHO) projects that diabetes will be the 7th leading cause of death in 2030. More than 80% of diabetes deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries because dealing with such a disease requires a daily treatment that is too expensive. A major cost is the measurement of glucose level in the blood with a glucometer and a strip. In this project, we want to demonstrate that mass-production techniques, such as printing, can be used in combination with radically new sensor concept and novel electronic materials to fabricate a glucometer on a piece of paper: "the glucometer label". This would reduce the cost of a glucometer system by 50 times and make it affordable for many more diabetes patients, thus preventing the worse disabling consequences of diabetes as well as death. Our research proposal lies at the intersection of several sub-research areas that have not been put together in the past: printed electronics, molecular-junction electronics and biosensors. So, this project is lying at the fore-front of materials science and electronics but has a clear path and motivation towards application and product. We are aware that radically new technologies takes time to reach the market. Because of the urgency of the situation in low-income countries, we try to plan at best to reduce the maturation time. The multidisciplinary character expresses it-self by the need of chemistry, physics, electronics, biology and medicine. This is a 5-year project that will be realized at Linköping University in collaboration with the University of Bujumbura (Burundi). We will start from our recent technological breakthrough: We succeeded to print (in air, without any high temperature annealing) the first resonant tunneling diode working up to 1.5GHz (Published in PNAS and commented in Nature 511, 267(2014)). The integration of a chemical sensing function in a resonant tunneling diode has not been considered up to now. But the architecture of our device is very suitable since the analyte (glucose) can easily reach the sensing region and that the current in the diode can only passes through the sensing region. The sensing region consists of a self-assembled monolayer located between the Si particles and the metal foil. Specially designed molecular junctions can react with glucose and change the tunneling current in the diode. We will use a battery of material characterization methods and theoretical prediction tools to design the best molecular recognition systems and the most efficient device architecture. Finally, we will design and fabricate a full circuit for the "glucometer label" including an electrochromic display that indicates directly the level of glucose to the patient. Our research environment is unique because it can bring fundamental research to product. The Laboratory of Organic Electronics (www.orgel.itn.liu.se) together with the research institute Acreo (Swedish ICT) we have developed the Printed Electronics Arena (PEA). PEA is one of the few European researches manufacturing laboratory (www.printedelectronicsarena.com) performing product development and scaling up the manufacturing of printed electronics, as well as dealing with intellectual properties and business creation. Hence, the results of this Vetenskaprådet project will be a new seed that can grow in the future in a healthy research environment. The development of printed glucometers for low income countries is urgent and crucial as indicated by support letters coming from the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the Burundian national program against non-transmissible disease. 347 miljoner människor världen över lider av diabetes. Världshälsoorganisationen WHO beräknar att diabetes kommer att vara den 7:e vanligaste dödsorsaken år 2030. Mer är 80% av dödsfallen sker i låg- och medelinkomstländer eftersom sjukdomen kräver en kostsam daglig behandling för vilken det saknas resurser. En betydande del av kostnaden utgörs av mätning av glukosnivån i blodet med hjälp av blodsockermätare och mätsticka. I detta projekt vill vi demonstrera att tekniker för massproduktion, såsom tryckning, kan användas tillsammans med radikalt nya sensorkoncept och nya elektroniska material för att tillverka en blodsockermätare på en bit papper. Detta skulle kunna reducera kostnaden för blodsockermätning med en faktor 50 och göra den tillgänglig för många fler diabetespatienter, vilket skulle förebygga ett stort antal följdsjukdomar och dödsfall. Vårt forskningsprogram består av flera forskningsområden som inte tidigare har kopplats samman: tryckt elektronik, elektronik i molekylära övergångar, samt biosensorer. Projektet ligger därmed i framkant inom materialvetenskap och elektronik samtidigt som det motiveras av en tydlig tillämpning och en framtida produkt. Vi är medvetna om att det tar tid för radikalt nya teknologier att nå marknaden. På grund av den angelägna situationen i många låginkomstländer söker vi därför planera för att reducera mognadstiden så långt det är möjligt. Projektet är multidisciplinärt med behov av kompetens inom såväl kemi, fysik, elektronik. Det genomförs av forskare vid Linköpings Universitet i samarbete med Bujumbura Universitetet i Burundi.

The most effective way to prevent malaria transmission is vector control. The long-term sustainability of the currently used vector control tools, long lasting insecticide treated nets and indoor residual spraying is threatened by the development of insecticide resistance, as well as behavioural avoidance of adult mosquitoes. Furthermore they completely omit malaria vectors that do not (exclusively) feed on humans, indoors, at night. Therefore we need novel vector control tools. One attractive alternative is odour bated gravid traps. This intervention could target all malaria vectors irrespective of their host-seeking behaviour and insecticide resistance status. The purpose of this application is to identify novel oviposition attractants that can be used as odour bates in gravid traps. Recently we identified cedrol, a sesquiterpene alcohol as the first oviposition attractant for African malaria vectors. It is likely that gravid Anopheles females use a range of volatiles to find suitable oviposition sites and blends of attractant semiochemicals are expected to improve the efficiency of the gravid trap. Finding the source(s) of cedrol, might help to identify novel putative oviposition attractants released from the same or similar sources. The available data suggest that cedrol may be a result of fungal metabolism and we will therefore examine the fungal community in the oviposition substrates cedrol was identified from. We will utilize fungal cultures as substrates in ovipositon bioassays and collect and identify the volatiles released from the cultures. Based on the data novel putative oviposition attractants will be selected for evaluation in oviposition bioassays with An. gambiae females. Furthermore, recent evidence suggest that it may be possible to develop odour baits that attract a range of malaria vectors and thereby target all of them with an odour bated gravid trap. Here we will test the effect of cedrol and any other confirmed An. gambiae oviposition attractants on the oviposition behaviour of other primary and secondary malaria vectors like An. funestus An. coustani and An. rivulorum.. Identification of an odour blend that attract several primary and secondary malaria vectors would be a large step forward in the development of novel malaria control interventions. Ett barn dör varje minut i malaria, främst i Afrika söder om Sahara. Sjukdommen orsakas av en encellig parasit som överförs mellan människor av myggor som tillhör släktet Anopheles. Det bästa sättet att förhindra spridning av malaria är myggkontroll. De myggkontrollmetoder som används för att kontrollera malaria idag fokuserar på de myggarter som är bäst på att sprida malaria och är inriktade på mygghonans beteende när hon söker efter blod; hon föredrar att bita människor, inomhus, på natten. Även om de här metoderna är effektiva och har hjälpt till att få ner dödsfallen orsakade av malaria så har de problem med resistensutveckling mot de myggifter som används. Dessutom kan de inte användas mot de myggarter som söker blod vid andra tidpunkter eller på andra platser. Det långsiktiga målet med vår forskning är att utveckla nya kontroll metoder som fokuserar på ett annat för myggan viktigt beteende, nämligen äggläggning. Genom att kombinera en sådan metod med de som redan används kan vi kontrollera även de myggor som är resistenta mot myggifterna eller som biter utomhus på dagtid. Vi har tidigare kunnat visa att mygghonor väljer vart hon lägger sina ägg utifrån olika faktorer och att en av dem är doftsignaler. Vi har också identifierat ett ämne som kan användas för att locka mygghonorna till en äggläggningsplats eller fälla. Våra och andra forskargruppers tidigare resultat tyder på att det här ämnet produceras av svampar. I det här projektet vill vi undersöka den här hypotesen genom att studera de svampar som finns naturligt i det äggläggnings-substrat ämnet identifierades från. Vi tror att vi därigenom också kan identifiera fler äggläggnings-attrahenter som kan kombineras med den redan identifierade för att skapa effektivare myggfällor.

De metallkomplex som framställs innehåller kända eller postulerade aktiva fragment från etablerade läkemedel. Forskningen är av preklinisk natur och syftar till att utveckla aktiva substanser som kan utgöra grund för framtida läkemedelsutveckling.

Understanding the role of biochar for improved food and energy security, poverty alleviation and gender dynamics requires a multi-disciplinary approach. Building on a first stage exploratory project, the goals of the proposed project are to identify and develop, together with farmers, niches for on-farm smallholder biochar production and use in various agro-ecological, socio-cultural and gender landscapes. Research methodologies in the proposed project include both participatory action research to provide on-farm science-based evidence related to real life localized production of biochar in gasifying cookstoves (WP1) and use of biochar in the farming system (WP3) and strategic research further characterizing biochar properties in relation to production methods and quality aspects (WP2) and assessing biochar contributions to improved food security in small holder farming systems and climate change mitigation (WP4). The project will run for 4 years, in three sites in Kenya, involving a multi-disciplinary team (environmental engineer, socio-economists, agronomists and soil scientists) of experienced researchers from SLU, LU, IITA and ICRAF. The proposed project will fill engendered knowledge gaps on understanding farmer’s constraints and opportunities in relation to producing and using biochar on-farm, as well as understanding contributions of biochar production and use to food security, energy security and climate change mitigation. With this knowledge, it will be possible to identify when and how biochar can be beneficial components in bio-based economies. Genom att tillsätta förkolnat växtmaterial, så kallat biokol, till marken kan man binda in koldioxid från atmosfären i en stabil form i marken. Samtidigt kan markens odlingsegenskaper förbättras. Kol från träd och andra växter kan också användas som ett förnybart bränsle. Om det finns begränsat med växtmaterial så kan det bli konkurrens mellan biokol som jordförbättring och som bränsle. Det finns ny småskalig teknik för att framställa kol, i spisar som används för matlagning, vilket kan öka energieffektiviteten och minska luftföroreningarna inomhus Biokol har därför flera olika möjligheter att förbättra levnadsförhållandena i Kenya och andra afrikanska länder, genom förbättrade skördar, bättre tillgång till bränsle och minskade luftföroreningar. I det här projektet kommer vi att undersöka om och hur detta kan förverkligas hos småbönder i tre regioner i Kenya. Forskargruppen består av forskare från SLU (www.slu.se), Lunds Universitet (www.lu.se), the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (www.iita.org) och the WorldAgroforestry Centre (www.worldagroforestrycentre.org) som är specialister inom energi, tropisk mark och växtproduktion, samt socio-ekonomi. Projektet syftar till att utvärdera, tillsammans med småskaliga bönder från tre regioner i Kenya, 1) energieffekten och hur det är att använda speciella biokols-spisar, 2) kvaliteten på det producerade biokolet i relation till hur det producerades, 3) hur det är att använda biokolet som ett jord- och växt förbättringsmedel på gården, och 4) klimatpåverkan från att producera och använda biokol. Projektet kommer att ge ny kunskap från gårds- och fältanvändning, vilket är ett steg vidare från laboratoriestudier och kontrollerade fältförsök. Det ger förståelse av biokolsanvändning i småskaliga jordbrukssystem i Afrika, och är basen för vidare spridning av biokol som en tänkbar teknologi för förbättrad miljö och livsvillkor.

In societies characterised by deep-running political divisions, inequalities and exclusion, the issue of how to organise and distribute political power impacts hugely on stability. Devolution of power and resources to sub-national entities is often promoted as a remedy for problems of exclusion. However, changes in territorial demarcation and relocation of authority set off struggles over who should exercise what power, how and where. At the same time, fluid political identities frequently conflict with the scope of territorial and authority structures. The projects aims to 1) analyse how the contestation over devolved power in Kenya and Uganda influences political inclusion and exclusion and 2) contribute to theoretical development with regard to how the above is shaped by the interplay between formal and informal institutions and boundaries. The project seeks to capture this through empirical studies, based on interviews, policy documents and legislation, of struggles over territory, authority and identity at the sub-national level. Många länder runt om i världen, inklusive i Afrika, präglas av regionala ojämlikheter, starka subnationella identiteter och en ojämnt närvarande statsmakt. Detta har lett till konflikter kring hur politisk makt ska organiseras och fördelas mellan nivåer och landsändar. I många fall har man har de senaste decennierna som svar på dessa utmaningar genomfört olika former av decentralisering. På lokal nivå har förändringarna omfattat nya politiska församlingar och överföring av resurser och befogenheter, ofta inom ramen för nydragna administrativa gränser. Samtidigt förändras också mer informella dimensioner av politik såsom politiska identiteter, knutna till plats, etnisk tillhörighet, klass och kön. I många länder i Afrika äger de här båda processerna rum i ett bredare sammanhang, där relationerna mellan centralmakt och lokalsamhälle och lokalt styre präglas av staters begränsade utvecklingskapacitet, ojämn regional utveckling inom länderna samt konkurrerande anspråk på legitim representation. Det här projektet syftar, genom fallen Kenya och Uganda, till att undersöka hur dessa parallella processer – förändrade institutionella reformer och politiska identiteter – påverkar varandra, och hur de var och en för sig och tillsammans inverkar på politisk inkludering och exkludering. Den här allmänna problematiken analyseras i två regioner i respektive land. I Kenya, med en lång historia av markant centralisering av makt, införde den nya grundlagen från 2010 decentralisering till 47 län, något som verkställdes med valen i mars 2013. Uganda har en historia av lägre grad av stabilt centraliserad makt samt decentralisering till mindre distrikt. Den formella decentraliseringen samspelar med andra varianter av lokal politisk dynamik, kretsande kring etnicitet, och, i Ugandas fall, kring kungadömen. De utvalda regionerna, Nakuru county i centrala Rift Valley samt Mombasa i den gamla kustprovinsen i Kenya, och Buganda- och Bunyororegionerna i Uganda, är både politiskt viktiga i sig, och betydelsefulla för hur relationen mellan respektive centralmakt och lokalstyre utformas i stort. Samspelet mellan institutionella reformer och politiska identiteter är påfallande föränderligt. Detta påverkas förstås starkt av det övergripande politiska ramverket; båda ländernas styrelseskick uppvisar en blandning av formella demokratiska institutioner och auktoritär praktik. Hur är dessa tendenser förknippade med decentralisering? Erfarenheter från andra håll visar att förutsättningarna för att decentralisering ska medföra markant ökad jämlikhet i deltagande och inflytande måste betraktas som blygsamma. Däremot finns det fog för att uppmärksamma tendenser till både decentraliserad elitdominans och exkluderande identitetspolitik, kretsande till omstridda territoriella indelningar. Frågeställningen studeras empiriskt genom undersökningar av hur gränsdragningar av territorier och identiteter påverkar tillgång till och utestängning från politiskt inflytande på lokal nivå. Materialet består dels av dokument i form av lagstiftning, policydokument, valresultat, partiprogram, skriftliga inlagor av olika aktörer, samt pressmaterial; dels av intervjuer med olika kategorier såsom politiker och tjänstemän, politiska aktivister samt vanliga medborgare. I slutskedet av projektet kommer slutsatserna från delstudierna att ligga till grund för en bredare teoretisk analys av projektets frågeställningar. Genom en jämförelse av de två länderna leder projektet till ökad kunskap om förutsättningarna för politisk inkludering och exkludering i politiska sammanhang som präglas av ojämn regional utveckling inom länder, samt snabb föränderlighet vad gäller såväl statliga strukturer och politiska institutioner som politiska identiteter.

Also high concentrations of manganese, an essential element which is shown to be neurotoxic at higher doses, have been detected in infant food. Specifically, we will i) estimate the exposure to the toxic metals through rice; ii) evaluate different biomarkers of manganese exposure; iii) evaluate associations of exposure biomarkers (in children with low arsenic and manganese in drinking water) with available data on child growth and development, including effects of combined exposure; and iv) assess the interactions with known susceptibility factors, such as nutrition, gender, and genetic predisposition. The studies will be based on our ongoing large and well-characterized mother-child cohort (n=1500) in a poor area in rural Bangladesh. Because rice is the main staple food and the nutritional status varies markedly, this cohort provides unique possibilities to evaluate potential health effects of the toxic metals in rice on children and important susceptibility factors. In this cohort, we have assessed child anthropometry and development (cognitive performance and behavior) at 1.5, 5 and 10 years of age in relation to elevated metals exposure through drinking water. The total exposure to arsenic, cadmium and manganese is based on available concentrations in biomarkers, such as concentrations in urine and blood, measured in the mothers during pregnancy and in the children at the different follow-ups. We also have detailed information on the concentrations in the drinking water used over time. In a sub-sample, we have also measured metals and other trace elements in rice (various types and degree of polishing). The exposure to the metals through rice will be evaluated based on the i) estimated intake through rice, ii) the biomarker concentrations in the children with low concentrations in the drinking water and iii) the intercept of the biomarker concentrations regressed against the drinking water concentrations. As there is no known biomarker for manganese exposure, we will, in a sub-sample evaluate the relationship between various biomarkers (urine, blood, plasma, and hair), analyzed by modern ICP-MS in clean-room facilities, and also with the concentrations in water. All biomarker concentrations will also be compared with those in rice, measured in a sub-sample of the cohort. Evaluations will be gender-specific and consider nutritional status (anthropometry, SES and biomarker concentrations of selenium, zinc, and iodine), known to affect both absorption and toxicity. We will also evaluate impact of polymorphisms in genes related to kinetics of arsenic (main arsenic methyltransferase, AS3MT) and manganese (the solute carrier SLC30A10, coding a manganese efflux transporter). The results will be essential for the ongoing risk assessment of metals in infant and child food, especially for poor families in countries with rice-based staple food. There are few standards for toxic metals in infant and child food, and little known about risk factors. Also, the results will provide additional support for breast-feeding and for development of recommendation and product development. Under senare tid har det uppmärksammats att risbaserad mat, även sådan för små barn, ofta innehåller oroväckande halter av mycket giftiga metaller som arsenik och kadmium och även mycket höga halter av mangan, som liksom järn är ett livsnödvändigt ämne men som i höga doser är giftigt framför allt för små barn. Anledningen till de höga halterna är att risplantan, jämfört med andra spannmål, lätt tar upp dessa metaller från jorden. Så ris kan innehålla höga relativt halter även i icke förorenade områden. Upptäckten har föranlett en betydande ökning av forskningen rörande mekanismer för hur ris tar upp metaller, fr a arsenik. Men, vi vet väldigt lite om i vilken utsträckning ris och risprodukter bidrar till metallexponeringen hos små barn, hur metallerna tas upp i tarmen, samt vilka faktorer som kan påverka både upptag och giftighet. I experimentella studier har det visats att flera metaller tas upp i högre utsträckning hos barn än hos vuxna eftersom tarmen, med dess specifika relersystem, ännu inte är fullt utvecklad. Vidare är det troligt att barn är känsligare för metallernas skadliga egenskaper än vuxna. Framför allt det centrala nervsystemet (hjärnan) är speciellt känsligt för giftiga ämnen under utvecklingen. Flera studier har även visat att miljö-påverkan tidigt i livet ökar risken för flera folksjukdomar långt senare. Vår pågående forskning om hälsoeffekter av metaller i dricksvatten i ett fattigt landsbygdsområde i Bangladesh, som baseras på en grupp (kohort) om 1500 mammor och deras barn, utgör unika möjligheter att undersöka hur små barn kan påverkas av olika föroreningar i en risbaserad kost. Vi rekryterade kvinnorna i tidig graviditet och har följt upp barnen vad gäller tillväxt, beteende och kognitiv förmåga vid födseln, samt vid 1,5, 5 och 10 års ålder. Vi har dessutom detaljerad information om exponeringen (koncentrationer i blod, urin och vatten) för både giftiga och livsnödvändiga metaller och andra spårämnen i tidig och sen graviditeten, samt hos barnen vid 1,5, 5, och 10 års ålder. Från ett 60-tal av familjerna har vi även samlat in risprover. Eftersom ris är huvudsakliga basfödan i Bangladesh, och det är stor variation i näringsstatus hos de ofta fattiga människorna på landsbygden, ger detta projekt enastående möjligheter att studera exponeringen via ris och vilka faktorer som påverkar olika hälsoeffekter. För att klargöra vilka prover (blod, urin och hår) som lämpar sig bäst för att bedöma exponeringen kommer vi att analysera flertalet metaller och essentiella ämnen hos ca 200 av barnen. Vi ämnar att 1) beräkna intaget av metaller via ris, baserat på halterna i insamlade risprover (av olika typ och poleringsgrad) samt koncentrationerna i blod och urin hos barn, fr a de som har låga halter i sitt dricksvatten; 2) bedöma betydelsen av metallhalter i olika prover (blod, urin och hår) och vilka som bäst korrelerar med exponering; 3) undersöka om högre exponering via riset kan resultera i negativa effekter på barnens tillväxt och utveckling (beteende och kognitiv förmåga); samt 4) undersöka om undernärda barn eller de med speciell genetisk uppsättning är speciellt känsliga för metallerna. Så gott som alla data (koncentrationer i blod och urin samt vikt, längd och resultat från test av beteende och kognitiv förmåga) finns tillgängliga. Ytterligare analyser krävs för metallhalterna i delstudien som avser jämförelse av metallhalter i olika prover (urin, blod, hår och vatten). Det huvudsakliga arbetet innebär att statistiskt analysera metallhalter i olika grupper av barn (med olika halter i dricksvattnet, olika nutritionsstatus, flickor och pojkar i olika åldrar, samt olika uppsättningar av vissa gener som påverkar metallomsättningen i kroppen). Resultaten kommer att bli viktiga för den pågående riskbedömningen av giftiga metaller i barnmat som ska leda till nya och säkrare gränsvärden och rekommendationer.

Efavirenz (EFV) is approved recently by US-FDA and WHO as part of first line combination ART for HIV infected children >3 years of age. Based on results from few clinical studies, the US-FDA approved the use of EFV in infant and children aged ≥3 months weighing >3.5 kg. Due to lack of efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic data WHO continues to limit the use of EFV in children under <3 years of age. The current body weight-based EFV dose recommended (FDA and WHO) to treat HIV in infant and children is scaled-down prediction from population pharmacokinetic modeling of data obtained from adult subjects treated with the standard maximum EFV dose. Biochemical and physiological processes between children and adults such as metabolism are disproportionate to their body weight differences. Although adult data is helpful to decide a first-in-children dose to initiate a safety, efficacy and PK study, the appropriate way to determine pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters in children for a given age group is to conduct a dose optimization studies in specific age groups. Our extensive EFV dose optimization studies in Sub Saharan Africa patients indicate the importance of pharmacogenetic variations for efavirenz plasma exposure and treatment outcome. Based on population PK modeling of observational data, we demonstrated that standard 600 mg daily adult dose is unnecessarily high and recommended a dose reduction to 400 mg daily for adults in black African populations, which is confirmed by recent randomized clinical trials. In the present study we aim to perform a similar EFV dose optimization study specific for pediatrics population in Africa. EFV crosses the blood brain barrier and high plasma EFV concentration is associated with CNS toxicity, which may result in untoward effect for the developing child brain. We hypothesize that with the current recommended EFV dose, the risk of under- or overdosing of EFV is eminent among black African children who exhibit significant nutritional, comorbidity and host-genetic diversity from populations where pharmacokinetic and safety studies are performed and data extrapolated with “one-dose-fit-all” principle. We aim to identify safe and effective efavirenz dosage recommendations specific for pediatric use to treat HIV infected infants and children in Sub Saharan Africa. A three-phase extensive efavirenz pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenetics and pharmacodynamics based EFV dose optimization study will be conducted in HIV and HIV-TB co-infected infant and children from two genetically diverse African populations (Uganda and Ethiopia) during 2016 – 2020. First (Phase-1): observational study will be conducted to evaluate EFV plasma exposure, safety (skin rash, liver and CNS toxicity) and efficacy (immunologic and virological outcomes) of EFV based ART using the current EFV dose approved by FDA (< 3 years of age) and WHO (> 3 years of age) treatment guidelines. Patients will be enrolled prospectively and followed for one year. Application and feasibility of bedside genotype testing for patient care to aid EFV dose adjustment in HIV pediatric clinic will be developed and evaluated. Secondly (Phase-2): Population pharmacokinetic, pharmacogenetic and pharmacodynamics modeling and simulation of the data we will be performed to identify the normal efavirenz therapeutic range and optimal predictive EFV dose recommendation for the various age group. Thirdly (Phase-3): In a randomized clinical trial, we will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the predicted optimal EFV dose and compare it against the current FDA/WHO approved EFV dose recommendations. The study, to be conducted through a well-established multidisciplinary collaboration, will provide evidence-based recommendation for policy makers to develop safe and effective HIV treatment guidelines for the most vulnerable pediatric population in HIV-infektion är ett globalt problem.

USA-FDA har godkänt användningen av EFV i spädbarn och barn i åldern ≥3 månader som väger> 3,5 kg. På grund av avsaknad av uppgifter om effekt, säkerhet och läkemedels omsättning rekommenderar WHO fortsatt begränsad användning av efavirenz hos barn under <3 år. Erfarenhet från behandling av barn är begränsad och doseringsrekommendationer byggerpå extrapolering från resultat av studier hos vuxna behandlade med högsta standarddos av efavirenz för vuxna.

Den begränsade informationen om hur efavirenz omsätts hos HIV-infekterade barn antyder att den nuvarande rekommenderade dosen av efavirenz inte är optimal och kräver fördjupade studier för att nå bästa behandlingsresultat. Tidigare dosptimerings studier hos vuxna HIV-patienter från Afrika (Etiopien, Tanzania och Uganda) visade att omsättningen av efavirenz är långsamma hos den svarta befolkningen genom ärftligt inflytande. Denna studien är en liknande dosoptimeringsstudie men hos olika åldergrupper av barn. Biverkningsmönstret för efavirenz domineras av hudutslag, centralnervösa symptom och påverkat enzymmönster i levern. Framför allt de centralnvervösa koncentrationsberoende biverkningarna är besvärande och kan försvåra barns skolarbete. Vår hypotes är att den nuvarande rekommenderad dosen av efavirenz ger betydande risk för under- eller överdosering av efavirenz bland svarta afrikanska barn som har helt andra mönster av gener än andra befolkningar där både läkemedlets omsättning och säkerhet har studerats.

Den begränsade informationen om hur efavirenz omsätts hos HIV-infekterade barn antyder att den nuvarande rekommenderade dosen av efavirenz inte är optimal och kräver fördjupade studier för att nå bästa behandlingsresultat. Tidigare dosptimerings studier hos vuxna HIV-patienter från Afrika (Etiopien, Tanzania och Uganda) visade att omsättningen av efavirenz är långsamma hos den svarta befolkningen genom ärftligt inflytande. Denna studien är en liknande dosoptimeringsstudie men hos olika åldergrupper av barn. Biverkningsmönstret för efavirenz domineras av hudutslag, centralnervösa symptom och påverkat enzymmönster i levern. Framför allt de centralnvervösa koncentrationsberoende biverkningarna är besvärande och kan försvåra barns skolarbete. Vår hypotes är att den nuvarande rekommenderad dosen av efavirenz ger betydande risk för under- eller överdosering av efavirenz bland svarta afrikanska barn som har helt andra mönster av gener än andra befolkningar där både läkemedlets omsättning och säkerhet har studerats. Det räcker alltså inte att använda denna information utifrån idén " en-dos-för alla”. Det har studie syftar att identifiera säkra och effektiva efavirenz doseringsrekommendationer för att behandla HIV-infekterade spädbarn och barn i två genetiskt skilda afrikanska befolkningsgrupper (Uganda och Etiopien) under 2016-2020. Först (Fas-1): observationsstudie ska genomförs för att utvärdera koncentrationer av efavirenz, säkerhet (hudutslag, lever och CNS toxicitet) och effekt på immunsystemet och på virus av efvirenz i aktuell kombiantionsbehandling och dosering enligt amerikanska registreringsmyndigheten (FDA,< 3 år) och WHO (> 3 år). För det andra (Fas-2): Alla data om samtliga patienters blodkoncentrationer och ärftligt styrda förmåga att omsätta efavirenz och behandlingseffekter beskrivs med en matematisk modell. Olika doseringsregimer simuleras för att finna optimala dosregimer. Detta sker för olika åldersgrupper. För det tredje (Fas-3): I en kontrollerad klinisk studier utvärderar vi slutligen effekt och säkerhet och effekt för den förväntade optimala efavirenzdosen i olika åldersgrupper? jämföra med den nuvarande rekommenderade standarddoseringen enligt FDA och WHO.

It has been hypothesised that many tropical species have a narrow thermal niche and operate close to a thermal limit above which they experience declines in function or fitness. However, there is currently little data available to either support or refute this hypothesis. The present project aims to reduce this knowledge gap for tropical montane trees, with the overall purpose of assessing the sensitivity of physiology, growth and competitiveness of tropical montane trees to increased temperature. Multispecies plantations (common gardens) will be established along an elevation gradient in Rwanda, where a step down the gradient represents a possible future warming scenario. Pioneer and climax species from the high and mid elevation sites will be planted at all three locations, allowing for assessments of how both Afromontane rainforest (high elevation) and transitional rainforest (mid elevation) respond to climate warming. Since other environmental factors than temperature co-vary with elevation, the common gardens will include experimental manipulations of water and nutrient availability, with fertilization mitigating site differences in fertility and water being added or diverted depending on the location. By mixing trees of different thermal niches and successional strategies within the common gardens, the study can explore potential impacts of climate change on tree community composition. The investigated responses of the trees range from molecular level and leaf physiology to tree growth and community level interspecific competition. Molecular methods include determination of thylakoid membrane lipid composition, primary metabolites and transcriptional profiling by next generation sequencing. Physiological and tree growth responses are investigated by leaf gas exchange measurements and methodsfor determining biomass of different tree organs. Data will be analysed using analysis of variance. The research team includes participants at the University of Gothenburg (UG), the University of Rwanda (UR) and Rwanda Agriculture Board (RAB). Researchers at UG has the overall responsibility for co-ordination of the project, while researchers at UG and UR together supervise the PhD student and field assistant at UR, as well as BSc/MSc students from both universities conducting field research in the project. RAB owns the research stations and have basic lab and technical facilities and staff for maintenance. Year 1 of the project will be used to set up the common gardens at the three sites along the elevation gradient. The actual experiment and the response measurements will be conducted during year 2-5, with main focus on molecular and physiological responses in the early part and responses of growth and inter-specific competition during the later part. The scientific significance and novelty of the present project is the way that it addresses central hypotheses and knowledge gaps in global change biology by combining a unique experimental design with response measurements ranging from molecular mechanisms to community level competition. This experimental design allows us to assess not only how different species respond and acclimate to temperature, but also how interspecific variation in these responses affect tree community composition in a warmer climate. Furthermore, the broad range of response measurements allow for mechanistic understanding of the observed ecological responses. This combination of experimental approaches is novel and offers the potential to generate important new insights into the mechanisms controlling tree and forest responses to global warming.

Det övergripande syftet med vårt projekt är att minska denna kunskapslucka. Några specifika frågor som intresserar oss är: Är tropiska trädarter nära en övre temperaturgräns ovanför vilken deras funktion, tillväxt och konkurrenskraft försvagas? Kan arterna acklimatisera sig till den globala uppvärmningen? Är olika artgrupper olika känsliga? Hur kommer morgondagens tropiska regnskogar att se ut? I det här projektet studerar vi regnskog som växer på bergen i tropiska skogsområden i Rwanda, Afrika, för att se hur deras funktion, tillväxt och konkurrensförmåga påverkas när de utsätts för högre temperatur. Vi kommer att plantera tropiska trädarter på tre olika platser längs en höjdgradient, där temperaturen sjunker med ökad höjd. Ett steg nedåt längs gradienten representerar ett troligt framtida klimatscenarium (global uppvärmning). Det finns även skillnader i markegenskaper och nederbördsmängd mellan de tre olika platserna, vilka vi kompenserar för med hjälp av vattenavledning, bevattning och gödsling. På alla platser kommer vi att plantera både så kallade pionjärarter (arter som snabbt kan kolonisera nya områden) och klimaxarter (arter som dominerar i skogar utan störningar) som naturligt förekommer i de två översta områdena av höjdgradienten. På så sätt kan vi undersöka konkurrensen mellan arterna och se ifall pionjärarter är mindre känsliga än klimaxarter och ifall arter från lägre höjd tar över vid högre temperatur. Temperaturens påverkan på träden kommer att studeras från molekylär nivå till effekter på blandens fotosyntes (där ljusenergi omvandlas till kolhydrater), trädens tillväxt, och skogsbeståndens artsammansättning. För att förstå de storskaliga ekologiska effekterna behövs kunskap om de underliggande mekanismer som styr dessa. Ett träds förmåga att anpassa sig till uppvärmning beror till stor del på i vilken utstäckning det kan acklimatisera sina fysiologiska (inre) processer och funktioner till högre temperatur Vi kommer därför att undersöka om fotosyntesens temperaturkänslighet kan acklimatisera sig till höjd temperatur, så att värmekänsligheten är lägre hos en individ som vuxit upp i ett varmare klimat. En mekanism som är särskilt viktig för en sådan anpassningsförmåga är membranens möjlighet att ändra sin fettsyresammansättning. Projektet är ett samarbete mellan Göteborgs Universitet, University of Rwanda och Rwanda Agriculture Board som sedan flera år har ett samarbete inom skogsforskning, där även lärarutbyte och handledning av doktorander och studenter ingår. Projektet kommer att belysa ett framtidsscenario för afrikanska bergsregnskogar i och med den globala uppvärmningen. Det kommer att ta fram ny kunskap om olika tropiska trädarters temperaturkänslighet och dessutom undersöka konsekvenserna för artsammansättningen i ett framtida klimat. Ett annat viktigt mål för projektet är att fortsätta bygga upp kompetensen inom skogsforskning i Rwanda, vilket gynnar forskningsbaserad och långsiktig klimatanpassning i ett fattigt land i Afrika.

Några specifika frågor som intresserar oss är: Är tropiska trädarter nära en övre temperaturgräns ovanför vilken deras funktion, tillväxt och konkurrenskraft försvagas? Kan arterna acklimatisera sig till den globala uppvärmningen? Är olika artgrupper olika känsliga? Hur kommer morgondagens tropiska regnskogar att se ut? I det här projektet studerar vi regnskog som växer på bergen i tropiska skogsområden i Rwanda, Afrika, för att se hur deras funktion, tillväxt och konkurrensförmåga påverkas när de utsätts för högre temperatur. Vi kommer att plantera tropiska trädarter på tre olika platser längs en höjdgradient, där temperaturen sjunker med ökad höjd. Ett steg nedåt längs gradienten representerar ett troligt framtida klimatscenarium (global uppvärmning). Det finns även skillnader i markegenskaper och nederbördsmängd mellan de tre olika platserna, vilka vi kompenserar för med hjälp av vattenavledning, bevattning och gödsling. På alla platser kommer vi att plantera både så kallade pionjärarter (arter som snabbt kan kolonisera nya områden) och klimaxarter (arter som dominerar i skogar utan störningar) som naturligt förekommer i de två översta områdena av höjdgradienten. På så sätt kan vi undersöka konkurrensen mellan arterna och se ifall pionjärarter är mindre känsliga än klimaxarter och ifall arter från lägre höjd tar över vid högre temperatur. Temperaturens påverkan på träden kommer att studeras från molekylär nivå till effekter på blandens fotosyntes (där ljusenergi omvandlas till kolhydrater), trädens tillväxt, och skogsbeståndens artsammansättning. För att förstå de storskaliga ekologiska effekterna behövs kunskap om de underliggande mekanismer som styr dessa. Ett träds förmåga att anpassa sig till uppvärmning beror till stor del på i vilken utstäckning det kan acklimatisera sina fysiologiska (inre) processer och funktioner till högre temperatur Vi kommer därför att undersöka om fotosyntesens temperaturkänslighet kan acklimatisera sig till höjd temperatur, så att värmekänsligheten är lägre hos en individ som vuxit upp i ett varmare klimat. En mekanism som är särskilt viktig för en sådan anpassningsförmåga är membranens möjlighet att ändra sin fettsyresammansättning. Projektet är ett samarbete mellan Göteborgs Universitet, University of Rwanda och Rwanda Agriculture Board som sedan flera år har ett samarbete inom skogsforskning, där även lärarutbyte och handledning av doktorander och studenter ingår. Projektet kommer att belysa ett framtidsscenario för afrikanska bergsregnskogar i och med den globala uppvärmningen. Det kommer att ta fram ny kunskap om olika tropiska trädarters temperaturkänslighet och dessutom undersöka konsekvenserna för artsammansättningen i ett framtida klimat. Ett annat viktigt mål för projektet är att fortsätta bygga upp kompetensen inom skogsforskning i Rwanda, vilket gynnar forskningsbaserad och långsiktig klimatanpassning i ett fattigt land i Afrika.

It has been hypothesised that many tropical species have a narrow thermal niche and operate close to a thermal limit above which they experience declines in function or fitness. However, there is currently little data available to either support or refute this hypothesis. The present project aims to reduce this knowledge gap for tropical montane trees, with the overall purpose of assessing the sensitivity of physiology, growth and competitiveness of tropical montane trees to increased temperature. Multispecies plantations (common gardens) will be established along an elevation gradient in Rwanda, where a step down the gradient represents a possible future warming scenario. Pioneer and climax species from the high and mid elevation sites will be planted at all three locations, allowing for assessments of how both Afromontane rainforest (high elevation) and transitional rainforest (mid elevation) respond to climate warming. Since other environmental factors than temperature co-vary with elevation, the common gardens will include experimental manipulations of water and nutrient availability, with fertilization mitigating site differences in fertility and water being added or diverted depending on the location. By mixing trees of different thermal niches and successional strategies within the common gardens, the study can explore potential impacts of climate change on tree community composition. The investigated responses of the trees range from molecular level and leaf physiology to tree growth and community level interspecific competition. Molecular methods include determination of thylakoid membrane lipid composition, primary metabolites and transcriptional profiling by next generation sequencing. Physiological and tree growth responses are investigated by leaf gas exchange measurements and methodsfor determining biomass of different tree organs. Data will be analysed using analysis of variance. The research team includes participants at the University of Gothenburg (UG), the University of Rwanda (UR) and Rwanda Agriculture Board (RAB).

Year 1 of the project will be used to set up the common gardens at the three sites along the elevation gradient.

While there is a growing consensus about the detrimental effects of corruption on wildlife management at the local and national levels, there is less knowledge about how varying national levels of corruption affect the governance of transnationally protected areas. Specifically, we focus on two protected areas in sub-Saharan Africa, managed by countries with contrasting levels of corruption. We set out to investigate how actors within these systems respond to the mixed institutional signals in such systems. Hence, the design allows for comparisons of the effects of corruption on wildlife management, but also for a theoretically driven examination of how the workings of institutional arrangements differ between corrupt and the less corrupt contexts. We focus on two cases of transnationally governed protected reserves: the Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier conservation area and the Greater Mapungubwe Transfrontier conservation area. Both reserves are jointly governed by countries with differing degrees of corruption in enforcement authorities: in the former case Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe, and in the latter case, Botswana, South Africa and Zimbabwe. By studying these two reserves, where different countries with varying degrees of government corruption employ rangers to enforce a shared conservation policy, we have a unique opportunity to examine four different aspects of the problem 1) the effects of corruption on wildlife conservation outcomes; 2) the causal mechanisms potentially making corruption affect such outcomes; 3) the institutional logic underpinning the corrupt and less corrupt parts of the systems respectively; 4) whether there is a spill-over effect from corruption norms, making the less corrupt administrations mimic the practices of the more corrupt administrations or vice versa. The project will use a mixed-methods approach to answer the research questions spelled out above. First, we will conduct a quantitative study over time investigating the effects of corruption on conservation outcomes, using corruption and biodiversity indicators (thus answering questions related to theme number 1). Second, in order to elucidate the causal and institutional mechanisms potentially making corruption affect wildlife conservation outcomes, we will conduct in-depth interviews with rangers from the different national enforcement authorities (theme 2, theme 3). Here, sampling will be purposive. Third, we will perform interviews with key stakeholders in management, such as senior managers, actors in the judiciary and local experts (theme 2, theme 3). Lastly, we will implement a large-scale survey among resource users from different parts of the neighboring areas (themes 1-4). Here, our sampling strategy will employ probabilistic techniques. The project will be based at the Quality of Government Institute at the Department of Political Science, University of Gothenburg. The study will build on our previous experience of working in sub-Saharan Africa. For example, Sundström has conducted field studies in Mozambique and South Africa, focusing on issues of corruption and rule violations in resource management; Jagers has been a scientific advisor for the Lake Victoria Research Initiative; and Sjöstedt has been a visiting scholar at the University of Cape Town and the University of the Western Cape as well as employed as a research fellow at the Swedish Agency for Development Evaluation.

Projektet studerar dessa frågor empiriskt med hjälp av en kombination av statistisk och kvalitativ analys. Den statistiska undersökningen använder sig av etablerade mått inom viltförvaltning på biologisk mångfald och hotade arter samt etablerade mått på korruption. Med hjälp av dessa mått undersöks vilken effekt korruption har på viltförvaltning. Projektet undersöker sedan effekterna av korruption på plats genom en ambitiös datainsamling bestående av intervjuer med parkvakter i de olika länder som förvaltar dessa två reservat samt relevanta myndighetspersoner och nyckelinformanter.

A major contributor to low productivity appears to be under investment in productive capital, such as quality tools, fertilizer and land improvements. A leading explanation is that poor farmers are ‘credit constrained,’ meaning that they simply cannot access sufficient cash to make the necessary investments. Policymakers frequently therefore subsidize such inputs, yet it is far from clear whether such subsidies are effective at putting resources in the hands of the right farmers. Subsidies may enable skilled but poor farmers to increase their usage of productive capital, but they may simply subsidize farmers who would have invested anyway, or even lead unskilled farmers to inefficiently take up the now artificially cheap capital. We propose a randomized controlled trial in Uganda, in partnership with the large, global NGO, BRAC, to study these issues. The study will provide small-scale farmers with access to agricultural capital at varying subsidy levels, combined with a) careful measurement of farmers’ willingness to pay for capital, and b) a randomized cash transfer program to study the effect of easing farmers’ credit constraints. Our experiment is designed to generate high-quality experimental evidence on farmers’ returns to capital (evidence which is presently scarce) which will enable us to explore to what extent there are indeed high potential returns that farmers are missing out on. Our experiment also enables us to study in detail how two leading policies, price subsidies and cash transfers, affect capital investment and productivity. This will enable us to offer precise and well informed policy recommendations. Our work will contribute to two important recent literatures in development economics. The first studies the return to investment in small scale enterprises in developing countries, typically finding high unexploited potential returns to capital. The second seeks to understand the ideal pricing policies for distributing development programs, so far mostly considering health products such as anti-mosquito bednets. We will provide new evidence from agriculture, complementing the existing work. We also make an important methodological contribution, combining and improving on existing experimental designs to provide rich new information to policymakers trying to maximize the impact of scarce public resources. I mindre utvecklade samhällen så sysselsätter jordbruket en stor andel av arbetskraften och har ansvaret för en avsevärd andel av produktionen, men kännetecknas typiskt av låg produktivitet. En avsevärd bidragande orsak till den låga produktiviteten verkar vara för låga investeringar i produktionskapital, så som kvalitetsverktyg, gödningsmedel och markförbättringar. En mycket viktig förklaring är att fattiga lantbrukare har ‘kreditbegränsningar’, vilket innebär att de helt enkelt inte har tillgång till tillräckligt med kontanter för att göra de nödvändiga investeringarna. Beslutsfattarna subventionerar därför ofta sådana insatsvaror, men det är långt ifrån uppenbart huruvida sådana subventioner är effektiva när det gäller att lägga resurser i händerna på rätt lantbrukare. Subventioner kan göra det möjligt för skickliga men fattiga lantbrukare att ökar sin användning av produktionskapital, men de kan även helt enkelt subventionera lantbrukare som skulle ha investerat i vilket fall, eller till och med förmå lågutbildade lantbrukare att på ett ineffektivt sätt fånga upp det nu artificiellt billiga kapitalet. Vi föreslår ett randomiserat kontrollerad experiment i Uganda med den stora globala icke-statliga organisationen (en sk NGO), BRAC, för att studera dessa frågor. Studien kommer att ge småskaliga lantbrukare tillgång till jordbrukskapital på olika subventionsnivåer i kombination med a) en noggrann mätning av lantbrukarnas vilja att betala för kapital och b) ett randomiserat kontantöverföringsprogram för att studera effekten av att mildra lantbrukarnas kreditrestriktioner. Vårt experiment är utformat för att generera högkvalitativa experimentella bevis för lantbrukarnas avkastning på kapital (bevis som för närvarande är knappa) som kommer att göra det möjligt att utforska i vilken utsträckning det verkligen finns en hög potentiell avkastning som lantbrukarna går miste om. Vårt experiment gör det också möjligt för oss att i detalj studera hur två ledande principer, prissubventioner och kontantöverföringar, påverkar kapitalinvesteringar och produktivitet. Detta kommer att göra det möjligt för oss att erbjuda exakta och välinformerade policyrekommendationer. Vårt arbete kommer att bidraga till två nyliga delar av litteraturen inom utvecklingsekonomi. Den första studerar avkastningen på investeringar i småskaliga företag i utvecklingsländer, där man typiskt sett finner höga oexploaterade potentiella avkastningar på kapital. Den andra försöker förstå den ideala prissättningspolitiken för att distribuera utvecklingsprogram, så här långt främst hälsoprodukter så som moskitnät för sängar. Vi kommer att tillhandahålla nya bevis från jordbruket, som kompletterar existerande arbete. Vi ger också ett viktigt metodbidrag, där vi kombinerar och förbättrar existerande experimentella planer för att ge riklig ny information till beslutsfattare där man försöker maximera effekten av knappa offentliga resurser.

A major contributor to low productivity appears to be under investment in productive capital, such as quality tools, fertilizer and land improvements. A leading explanation is that poor farmers are ‘credit constrained,’ meaning that they simply cannot access sufficient cash to make the necessary investments. Policymakers frequently therefore subsidize such inputs, yet it is far from clear whether such subsidies are effective at putting resources in the hands of the right farmers. Subsidies may enable skilled but poor farmers to increase their usage of productive capital, but they may simply subsidize farmers who would have invested anyway, or even lead unskilled farmers to inefficiently take up the now artificially cheap capital. We propose a randomized controlled trial in Uganda, in partnership with the large, global NGO, BRAC, to study these issues.

Treating the BSIs often demands intensive care measures including artificial ventilation and blood dialysis during such complications as multiple organ failure. The negative impact of BSI is especially pronounced in the low-income countries where the quality of the healthcare may be not capable of handling critically ill patients and/or the number of hospitals and their location is disproportional to demographic needs. Additionally, BSIs combined with antimicrobial resistance (AMR) constitute a particularly difficult problem to tackle. The infection develops quickly, the choice of effective therapies is limited and the process of selecting an appropriate treatment is slow as it involves the isolation of the etiologic agent. In case of multi-AMR of the pathogen, and lack of effective antimicrobials, medical professionals may have to fight the severe infection virtually unarmed with only empiric therapies. The grave scenario of returning to the pre-antimicrobial era is looming, and there are limited data regarding the epidemiology of AMR and BSI in low-income countries. Further, diagnostic methods for BSI are currently slow, ineffective and push healthcare personnel to administrate empirical treatment that may be not beneficial for the patient and may drive the AMR globally even further. Considering the urgent global challenges associated with AMR and BSIs, the aims of our study are: 1.To investigate the burden and clinical epidemiology of BSI in a tertiary hospital in Vietnam, a lower-middle income country with a population of 90.6 million. The identification and characterization of the bacteria causing BSI will be performed in the context of AMR (using whole genome sequencing). The influence of AMR and the type of infecting pathogen on the disease outcome will be analyzed. 2.To determine species specific and AMR metabolite signatures of bacteria causing BSIs. This will be performed in both blood samples from subjects with BSI and in bacterial cultures of AMR pathogens with distinct genetic backgrounds. Metabolomics data from clinical samples will be integrated with the corresponding data from genomic sequencing to produce reliable markers of AMR/BSI. 3.To develop a rapid diagnostic approach for the analysis of metabolite signatures of AMR/BSI in dry blood samples. Such samples can be quickly shipped from remote areas to the bigger health centers/laboratories and we aim to analyze the efficiency and the impact of such diagnostic strategy in low-income settings in Vietnam. To achieve the identified aims we will combine cutting-edge methods as next generation bacterial genome sequencing and highly sensitive metabolite analysis with clinical data and advanced bioinformatics. Statistical significance will be secured through recruiting of 7,000 participants in this study and we aim to sequence 1,000 clinically relevant bacterial genomes. This consortium is established for the project as partner Baker has extensive documented experience of microbiological/clinical investigations in Asian settings and applicant Antti is a field leader in metabolomics studies in infectious diseases. The applicants have a record of joint work and publication indicating successful communication and efficient collaboration of these groups. The expected impact of the study is highly significant. Within the four-year duration of the project we will have a detailed understanding of the epidemiology and genomics of AMR/BSI in a major hospital in Vietnam, a country heavily affected by AMR. The key factors for the propagation of AMR pathogens in Vietnam will be identified with the potential to extrapolate the results to other parts of Asia. The proposed approach for AMR/BSI testing by metabolite signatures will be designed, validated and may potentially d Blodinfektioner (BI) orsakade av bakteriella patogener är ett ledande problem för sjukvården världen över och en vanlig orsak till sjukdom och dödlighet även i länder med avancerade sjukvårdssystem. Att behandla BI kräver ofta intensivvård inkluderande artificiell ventilering och bloddialys på grund av komplikationer såsom multipel organsvikt. Den negativa effekten av BI är särskilt uttalad i låginkomstländer där den låga kvaliteten på sjukvården gör att man inte kan hantera kritiskt sjuka patienter och/eller att antalet sjukhus och deras placering inte möter de demografiska behoven. Dessutom utgör BI i kombination med antimikrobiell resistens (AMR) ett särskilt svårt problem. Dessa infektioner utvecklas snabbt, valet av effektiva behandlingar är begränsat och processen att välja en lämplig behandling är långsam. I fall av multi-AMR , och brist på effektiva antibiotika är ett faktum, kan vårdpersonal måsta bekämpa allvarlig infektion utan funktionella verktyg med endast empiriska terapier. Skräckscenariot med en återgång till den pre-antimikrobiella eran är idag en allt mer realistisk framtidsbild, och det finns begränsade data avseende epidemiologin gällande AMR och BI i låginkomstländer. Vidare är befintliga diagnosmetoder för BI i dagsläget långsamma, ineffektiva och tvingar vårdpersonal att administrera empirisk behandlingar som ej är fördelaktiga för patienten och kan driva på spridiningen av AMR globalt ytterligare. Med tanke på de akuta globala utmaningar som förknippas med AMR och BI är syftet med vår studie: 1. Att undersöka bördan och den kliniska epidemiologin av BI vid ett tertiärt sjukhus i Vietnam, ett låg-medel inkomstland med en befolkning på 90,6 miljoner människor. Identifieringen och karakteriseringen av bakterier som orsakar BI kommer att utföras i samband med AMR (med helgenomsekvensering). Påverkan av AMR och typen av infekterande patogener på sjukdomsutfallet kommer att analyseras. 2. Att detektera artspecifika och AMR relaterade metabolitprofiler hos bakterier som orsakar BI. Detta kommer att utföras i både blodprover från patienter med BI och i bakteriekulturer från AMR patogener med distinkt genetisk bakgrund. Metabolomikdata från kliniska prover kommer att integreras med motsvarande data från genomsekvensering för att ta fram tillförlitliga markörer för AMR / BI. 3. Att utveckla en snabb och kostnadseffektiv diagnostisk metod för AMR/BI baserad på relaterade metabolitsignaturer i torra blodprov. Sådana prov kan snabbt transporteras från avlägsna landsdelar till större vårdcentraler/laboratorier för analys och vår ambition är att analysera effektiviteten och effekterna av en sådan diagnostisk strategi i låginkomstområden i Vietnam. För att uppnå de identifierade målen kommer vi att kombinera spjutspetsmetoder som nästa generations bakteriegenomsekvensering och mycket känslig metabolitanalys med kliniska data och avancerad bioinformatik. Statistisk signifikans säkras genom rekrytering av 7.000 deltagare till denna studie och vår ambition är att sekvensera 1.000 kliniskt relevanta bakteriegenom.

Metagenomics studies have shown how pathogenic bacteria, viruses and human activities affect both exploited and unexploited species populations, community structure and 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 and complex 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. De marina resurser som korallreven erbjuder är den huvudsakliga proteinkällan för kustmänniskor i utvecklingsländer och större öar i WIO området. Patogena bakterier och virus, tillsammans med mänskliga aktiviteters inverkan på korallrevens ekosystem påverkar både exploaterade och oexploaterade arters populationer, samverkan och ekologiska processer och därmed ger en indikation på korallrevets hälsa. Hittills har ekologistudier i WIO fokuserat på alg-korall-sjöborre-fisk-interaktioner snarare än på mer svårstuderade taxonomiska grupper såsom prokaryota mikroorganismer och virus. Vår studie kommer att använda den senaste tekniken för metagenomik för att bedöma korallrevens hälsotillstånd och förmåga till anpassning till förändringar ( orsakade av mänsklig verksamhet och / eller klimat ) längs Kenyas och Mauritius kuster. Den senaste utvecklingen inom DNA-sekvenseringteknik , bioinformatik och metagenomik vidgar gränserna för de biologiska vetenskaperna. Den gör det möjligt att skapa, lagra, uppdatera och tolka stora mängder gensekvenser i en aldrig tidigare skådad omfattning. Det är nu möjligt att skifta fokus från enskilda enheter till analys av samspel inom hela populationer eller inom komplexa nätverk som styr biologiska system, till exempel korallrevs ekologi. Detta tvärvetenskapliga område erbjuder ständigt växande möjligheter att flytta fram forsknings- och produktionsmål samt att bevara och hållbart nyttja biologiska resurser i utvecklingsländer. Framgångar har dokumenterats på många områden t.ex. inom marinbiologi. Emellertid är tillgången till infrastruktur och kunskap inom detta teknikområde bristfällig i det aktuella området runt västra Indiska oceanen ( WIO ). Denna brist förhindrar framsteg som skulle kunna generera ny kunskap om tillståndet hos marina resurser och därmed ge underlag för en hållbar förvaltning och utnyttjande av dem för både konventionella ändamål och som källa till hittills oidentifierade potentiella nya resurser. För att överbrygga denna klyfta, kommer detta projekt att bygga upp kapacitet i regionen för att möjliggöra tillämpning av nästa generations sekvensering, bioinformatik och metagenomik och att samtidigt svara på viktiga frågor om mänsklig inverkan på tillståndet i korallrevens ecosystem. Projektet kommer också att informera berörda politiker och lokala samhällen om en mer hållbar användning av de aktuella marina resurserna . Vi kommer att fokusera på en metagenomanalys av för att utröna människoaktiviteters inverkan på korallreven i Kenya och Mauritius . Vi kommer att bygga på modellstudier från utvecklade länder för att fastställa och bedöma identitet och mikrobiell mångfald i korallrevens ekosystem och på detta sätt skapa underlag för att förstå effekterna av mänsklig verksamhet och för beslut om åtgärder som måste vidtas för en hållbar förvaltning av dessa marina resurser.

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. De marina resurser som korallreven erbjuder är den huvudsakliga proteinkällan för kustmänniskor i utvecklingsländer och större öar i WIO området. Patogena bakterier och virus, tillsammans med mänskliga aktiviteters inverkan på korallrevens ekosystem påverkar både exploaterade och oexploaterade arters populationer, samverkan och ekologiska processer och därmed ger en indikation på korallrevets hälsa. Hittills har ekologistudier i WIO fokuserat på alg-korall-sjöborre-fisk-interaktioner snarare än på mer svårstuderade taxonomiska grupper såsom prokaryota mikroorganismer och virus. Vår studie kommer att använda den senaste tekniken för metagenomik för att bedöma korallrevens hälsotillstånd och förmåga till anpassning till förändringar ( orsakade av mänsklig verksamhet och / eller klimat ) längs Kenyas och Mauritius kuster. Den senaste utvecklingen inom DNA-sekvenseringteknik , bioinformatik och metagenomik vidgar gränserna för de biologiska vetenskaperna. Den gör det möjligt att skapa, lagra, uppdatera och tolka stora mängder gensekvenser i en aldrig tidigare skådad omfattning. Det är nu möjligt att skifta fokus från enskilda enheter till analys av samspel inom hela populationer eller inom komplexa nätverk som styr biologiska system, till exempel korallrevs ekologi. Detta tvärvetenskapliga område erbjuder ständigt växande möjligheter att flytta fram forsknings- och produktionsmål samt att bevara och hållbart nyttja biologiska resurser i utvecklingsländer. Framgångar har dokumenterats på många områden t.ex. inom marinbiologi. Emellertid är tillgången till infrastruktur och kunskap inom detta teknikområde bristfällig i det aktuella området runt västra Indiska oceanen ( WIO ). Denna brist förhindrar framsteg som skulle kunna generera ny kunskap om tillståndet hos marina resurser och därmed ge underlag för en hållbar förvaltning och utnyttjande av dem för både konventionella ändamål och som källa till hittills oidentifierade potentiella nya resurser. För att överbrygga denna klyfta, kommer detta projekt att bygga upp kapacitet i regionen för att möjliggöra tillämpning av nästa generations sekvensering, bioinformatik och metagenomik och att samtidigt svara på viktiga frågor om mänsklig inverkan på tillståndet i korallrevens ecosystem. Projektet kommer också att informera berörda politiker och lokala samhällen om en mer hållbar användning av de aktuella marina resurserna . Vi kommer att fokusera på en metagenomanalys av för att utröna människoaktiviteters inverkan på korallreven i Kenya och Mauritius . Vi kommer att bygga på modellstudier från utvecklade länder för att fastställa och bedöma identitet och mikrobiell mångfald i korallrevens ekosystem och på detta sätt skapa underlag för att förstå effekterna av mänsklig verksamhet och för beslut om åtgärder som måste vidtas för en hållbar förvaltning av dessa marina resurser.

These vaccines are effective, but the use of several strains and two inactivation methods makes their manufacture complex and relatively expensive, and OCVs are therefore still severely underused globally. In developing a new generation of OCVs, a central aim is to make it affordable for the populations in greatest need. This can be achieved by simplifying manufacture whilst maintaining the levels of protection afforded by currently available OCVs. Using a single vaccine strain and one inactivation method would considerably simplify and reduce the cost of manufacture. We have recently developed a novel concept and also engineered a new type of vaccine strains for such a new generation of OCVs, whereby the several V. cholerae O1 components in Dukoral and Shanchol can be replaced by a single-strain/single-formulation component with full retention of protective immunogenicity. We now propose, in collaboration with partners in India and Bangladesh, (1) to develop this novel single-strain OCV prototype combined with recombinantly produced cholera toxin B subunit into a truly low-cost, and also thermo- and pH-stable vaccine formulation for worldwide use including stockpiling purposes. A first-generation of the new OCV is planned to go into clinical testing in Bangladesh in early 2017 with product approval hoped for already in 2018/19. In parallel, (2) we will also develop a second-generation OCV formulation, which by including a novel cholera-toxin-derived mucosal adjuvant may provide adequate protection after single-dose administration, a feature which would be especially valuable for use in cholera outbreaks. The projected novel, low-cost, thermo- and pH-stable vaccine can be produced at a fraction of the cost of current vaccines, and should be attractive for worldwide use including stockpiling purposes. Relevant countries: Most countries in South and South-East Asia, the same for Sub-Saharan Africa, and selected low-income countries in the Western hemisphere, e.g. Haiti, Dominican rep. Projektet syftar till att ta fram ett förenklat och förbättrat drickbart koleravaccin, som i en enda vaccinstam/formulering innehåller alla de olika serotyp-antigener som är av betydelse för antibakteriell koleraimmunitet och dessutom också innehåller antigen som ger upphov till antitoxisk immunitet och eventuellt också ett immunitetsförstärkande adjuvans. Vaccinet ska ha egenskaper som gör att det lämpar sig för lokal produktion i utvecklingsländer och inte behöver varken kylkedjeförvaring eller magsyraneutraliserande buffer. Det finns för närvarande två avdödade drickbara koleravacciner på den internationella marknaden, det av oss på 1980/90-talet framtagna vaccinet Dukoral och sedan 2009 ett på Dukoral-vaccinet grundat vaccin framtaget i Vietnam och Indien (Shanchol). Bägge dessa vacciner är effektiva men relativt komplexa och dyra att producera eftersom de består av ett flertal koleravaccinstammar som inaktiverats med två olika metoder. Med genteknisk modifiering av den gen i kolerabakterier (benämnd wbeT) som avgör om kolerabakterier (Vibrio cholerae serogrupp O1) ska få serotypen Inaba eller Ogawa har vi kunnat ta fram alternativa vaccinstammar av antingen biotyp El Tor (som nu svarar för praktiskt taget all kolera i världen) eller s.k. klassisk biotyp. De nya vaccinstammarna kännetecknas av att de på sin yta samtidigt uttrycker O1-antigen av både Ogawa- och Inaba-serotyp. Sådana s.k. Hikojima-vaccinstammar har avdödats med antingen formalin- eller värmebehandling och i omfattande vaccinationsstudier i möss visats ge upphov till lika starka och skyddande immunsvar som erhålles med Dukoralvaccinet. Med annan typ av genteknik har också effektiv storskalig metodik utvecklats som möjliggör enkel och mycket billig framtagning av koleratoxinets B-subenhet (CTB) för tillägg till Hikojima-vaccinet. Resultaten har väckt stort internationellt intresse och lett fram till samarbete med Wellcome Trust Hilleman Laboratories i Indien, som är expert på formulering av orala vacciner, med Incepta Pharmaceuticals och med icddr,b i Bangladesh med expertis i läkemedels- och vaccinproduktion resp. kliniska vaccinprövningar, för den fortsatta utvecklingen som beskrivs i ansökan av ett globalt oralt koleravaccin baserat på en sådan formalinavdödad Hikojima El Tor-vaccinstam tillsammans med ”enterocoatad”/ magsyrastabilt CTB. Vaccinet planeras att tillverkas i Bangladesh där också kliniska studier ska företas för att möjliggöra snabb registrering och marknadsintroduktion. Det nya vaccinet blir mycket enklare och billigare att producera än de nu registrerade koleravaccinerna, genom att en enda stam och en avdödningsmetod ersätter fyra eller fem komponenter, vartill kommer att CTB också produceras enklare och billigare. Vaccinet beräknas ges peroralt i 2-ml volym och vara såväl värme- som pH-resistent, vilket gör att det inte behövs någon fördyrande kylkedja och inte heller någon pH-skyddande tilläggsbuffer. Tillsammans med den låga tillverkningskostnaden gör dessa egenskaper vaccinet mycket attraktivt för användning i vaccinationsprogram både mot endemisk kolera och vid kolerautbrott. Vi har också tagit fram ett nytt och mycket lovande peroralt adjuvans, mmCT, som vi med vidare utvecklingsarbete i projektet hoppas i ett senare skede kan adderas till det nya drickbara koleravaccinet och därigenom möjliggöra att vaccinet kan ges i en enda dos ( i stället för två doser) med fullt bibehållen effektivitet också hos de yngsta barnen.

This is creating new urban ambitions involving the reworking of African cities, their economies, politics and spaces. However, as urban informalization continues to expand in the face of ‘jobless growth’ there are signs of intensified tensions as rationalities and practices of survival collide with rationalities of growth. Urban planning and regulation of central city areas increasingly adopt discursive, juridical and material technologies of control that seemingly seek to sanitize central city spaces of informality. Some scholars posit this as evidence that ‘revanchist urbanism heads South’. However, little is known about how seemingly global forces articulate with the specific local contexts of African cities. Drawing from theoretical insights from critical urban theory, the aim of this project is to shed light on the varied forces that are currently reworking central city areas in specific African cities and the strategies marginalised actors utilise to protect their claims to the street. Using qualitative ethnographic methods, the project focuses on contested urban spaces used by informal street vendors in Maputo, Kampala and Lagos to investigate three central research questions.

It distinguishes itself from existing research on election violence in at least three ways: it focuses on a region less researched by zooming in on Asia (Cambodia and Myanmar), it focuses on violence directly targeting politicians, and, importantly, it explores gender differences in the type of intimidation and violence experienced. Election violence is an important issue from a number of perspectives. Understanding the causes and consequences of inter-personal physical violence is always relevant and important, but election violence also violates a fundamental democratic principle: free and fair elections. Seen from a democratic perspective, election violence is often used in order to affect electoral outcomes or to intimidate or threaten certain politicians from running a campaign or delivering their message. Election violence is therefore more than a violation of personal integrity; it also violates electoral integrity and decreases democratic quality (Norris 2013) By taking its starting-point in electoral integrity, the relevant definition of election violence here departs from the purpose of the violent acts. Acts of intimidation, threats, physical and psychological violence with the purpose of affecting an electoral outcome or preventing someone from running in an election are all relevant acts to focus on from this perspective. This means that the range of activities defined as election violence is broad and should not be confined to an exclusive focus on physical violence. While physical violence can influence elections in very direct ways, by preventing candidates from campaigning or standing for elections, threats and intimidation create fear and can be highly efficient means to influence individual decisions (Höglund 2009). It is also when looking at election violence from an electoral integrity perspective that we come to realize that different forms of violence and intimidation may be targeting different types of people. A report that has documented incidents of election violence does suggest that there is a gendered dimension that needs further scrutiny. The report indicates that while female victims of election violence most often reported intimidation and psychological abuse, male victims typically experienced physical violence taking place in the public sphere (Bardall 2011). So far, no study has applied these insights to the experiences of politicians during elections. If there are, indeed, diverging experiences of male and female politicians during election periods, we need to design studies that are able to capture these different experiences. This project will build on earlier research as well as practical experiences in order to do so. It will combine insights from aggregated studies of incidents of election violence and interview-based case studies to design a survey study that records individual experiences, but in a systematic manner. It will survey political candidates, men and women, in Myanmar and Cambodia – two countries where election violence is a pertinent problem thwarting democratic development. The survey will be undertaken in close cooperation with international organizations with local offices in these countries. The project departs from the concern that if a large number of intimidating activities are undertaken in order to prevent women from running to office, but research and activities still are biased towards physical acts of election violence, what is captured and targeted may be a very masculine experience of election violence. This project is needed in order to fully map the range of illicit methods that are used to affect election outcomes, and to be able to subsequently design and implement programs and activities that mitigate the risks for both male and female politicians running for election. Detta projekt undersöker genusaspekter på hot och våld som drabbar politiker i två Sydostasiatiska länder: Myanmar och i Kambodja. Valrelaterat våld är ett stort hinder för demokratisk utveckling i båda dessa länder och projektet ska undersöka om det också är så att kvinnliga och manliga politiker har olika erfarenheter av vilken typ av hot och våld som riktas mot dem under valkampanjen. Det finns stora hinder för kvinnors deltagande i politiken i båda dessa länder, och det är därför viktigt att forskning och utvecklingsprojekt om valrelaterat våld förmår fångar upp de metoder som används för att skrämma bort kvinnor från politiken. Valrelaterat våld är en viktig företeelse att studera av en rad anledningar. Det är alltid viktigt att förstå orsaker till och konsekvenser av fysiskt våld som påverkar människors säkerhet och kringskär mänsklig utveckling. Valrelaterat våld är dock också viktigt ur ett demokratiskt perspektiv. Våld som används för att påverka utfallet av val är mer än en kränkning av personlig integritet: det kränker också den demokratiska integritetsprincipen om fria och rättvisa val. Om vi utgår från kränkningen av den demokratiska integriteten kan vi också definiera valrelaterat våld utifrån dess motiv. Hot, förtal och fysiskt våld och förstörelse som används i syfte att hindra någon från att föra fram sitt politiska budskap eller från att ställa upp i val är alla relevanta företeelser. Utifrån ett demokratiskt perspektiv ska vi därför inte undersöka valrelaterat våld som enbart fysiskt våld, utan använda oss av en bredare definition som också tar in psykologiska metoder. Psykologiskt våld som används i syfte att skrämma och hota bör inte underskattas, utan kan vara väldigt effektivt när det gäller att påverka politikers beteenden och – i förlängningen – utfallet av valet. När valrelaterat våld definieras på detta sätt inser vi också att olika former av våld och hot kanske drabbar olika typer av personer. En rapport som har dokumenterat incidenter av valrelaterat våld föreslår att det kan finnas viktiga genusaspekter på vilken sorts metod som används för att minska enskilda politikers chanser eller för att förmå dem att inte ställa upp till val. Rapporten visade att kvinnliga offer för valrelaterat våld oftare hade rapporterat hot och psykologiskt våld, medan manliga offer oftare rapporterade fysiskt våld i den offentliga sfären Bardall 2011). Hittills har ingen studie undersökt huruvida dessa insikter också stämmer på vilken sorts valrelaterat våld som manliga respektive kvinnliga politiker upplever när de bedriver kampanj. Eftersom det finns anledning att tro att manliga och kvinnliga kandidater har olika erfarenheter av valrelaterat våld under valperioden måste vi designa en studies om förmår fånga dessa skillnader. Denna studie gör systematiska enkäter med politiska kandidater – män och kvinnor – i Myanmar och Kambodja. Studierna genomförs i nära samarbete med internationella organisationer med lokal förankring för att möjliggöra uppföljning och utveckling av praktiska program som arbetar med dessa frågor. Projektet tar sin utgångspunkt i en oro för att det kan finnas en stor mängd hotande och skrämmande aktiviteter som används för att förhindra att kvinnor gör politisk karriär, men att dessa aktiviteter kanske inte fångas upp av rådande studier, som fortfarande företrädesvis fokuserar på fysiskt våld.

Valrelaterat våld är ett stort hinder för demokratisk utveckling i båda dessa länder och projektet ska undersöka om det också är så att kvinnliga och manliga politiker har olika erfarenheter av vilken typ av hot och våld som riktas mot dem under valkampanjen. Det finns stora hinder för kvinnors deltagande i politiken i båda dessa länder, och det är därför viktigt att forskning och utvecklingsprojekt om valrelaterat våld förmår fångar upp de metoder som används för att skrämma bort kvinnor från politiken. Valrelaterat våld är en viktig företeelse att studera av en rad anledningar. Det är alltid viktigt att förstå orsaker till och konsekvenser av fysiskt våld som påverkar människors säkerhet och kringskär mänsklig utveckling. Valrelaterat våld är dock också viktigt ur ett demokratiskt perspektiv. Våld som används för att påverka utfallet av val är mer än en kränkning av personlig integritet: det kränker också den demokratiska integritetsprincipen om fria och rättvisa val. Om vi utgår från kränkningen av den demokratiska integriteten kan vi också definiera valrelaterat våld utifrån dess motiv. Hot, förtal och fysiskt våld och förstörelse som används i syfte att hindra någon från att föra fram sitt politiska budskap eller från att ställa upp i val är alla relevanta företeelser. Utifrån ett demokratiskt perspektiv ska vi därför inte undersöka valrelaterat våld som enbart fysiskt våld, utan använda oss av en bredare definition som också tar in psykologiska metoder. Psykologiskt våld som används i syfte att skrämma och hota bör inte underskattas, utan kan vara väldigt effektivt när det gäller att påverka politikers beteenden och – i förlängningen – utfallet av valet. När valrelaterat våld definieras på detta sätt inser vi också att olika former av våld och hot kanske drabbar olika typer av personer. En rapport som har dokumenterat incidenter av valrelaterat våld föreslår att det kan finnas viktiga genusaspekter på vilken sorts metod som används för att minska enskilda politikers chanser eller för att förmå dem att inte ställa upp till val. Rapporten visade att kvinnliga offer för valrelaterat våld oftare hade rapporterat hot och psykologiskt våld, medan manliga offer oftare rapporterade fysiskt våld i den offentliga sfären Bardall 2011). Hittills har ingen studie undersökt huruvida dessa insikter också stämmer på vilken sorts valrelaterat våld som manliga respektive kvinnliga politiker upplever när de bedriver kampanj. Eftersom det finns anledning att tro att manliga och kvinnliga kandidater har olika erfarenheter av valrelaterat våld under valperioden måste vi designa en studies om förmår fånga dessa skillnader. Denna studie gör systematiska enkäter med politiska kandidater – män och kvinnor – i Myanmar och Kambodja. Studierna genomförs i nära samarbete med internationella organisationer med lokal förankring för att möjliggöra uppföljning och utveckling av praktiska program som arbetar med dessa frågor. Projektet tar sin utgångspunkt i en oro för att det kan finnas en stor mängd hotande och skrämmande aktiviteter som används för att förhindra att kvinnor gör politisk karriär, men att dessa aktiviteter kanske inte fångas upp av rådande studier, som fortfarande företrädesvis fokuserar på fysiskt våld.

It distinguishes itself from existing research on election violence in at least three ways: it focuses on a region less researched by zooming in on Asia (Cambodia and Myanmar), it focuses on violence directly targeting politicians, and, importantly, it explores gender differences in the type of intimidation and violence experienced. Election violence is an important issue from a number of perspectives. Understanding the causes and consequences of inter-personal physical violence is always relevant and important, but election violence also violates a fundamental democratic principle: free and fair elections. Seen from a democratic perspective, election violence is often used in order to affect electoral outcomes or to intimidate or threaten certain politicians from running a campaign or delivering their message. Election violence is therefore more than a violation of personal integrity; it also violates electoral integrity and decreases democratic quality (Norris 2013) By taking its starting-point in electoral integrity, the relevant definition of election violence here departs from the purpose of the violent acts. Acts of intimidation, threats, physical and psychological violence with the purpose of affecting an electoral outcome or preventing someone from running in an election are all relevant acts to focus on from this perspective. This means that the range of activities defined as election violence is broad and should not be confined to an exclusive focus on physical violence. While physical violence can influence elections in very direct ways, by preventing candidates from campaigning or standing for elections, threats and intimidation create fear and can be highly efficient means to influence individual decisions (Höglund 2009). It is also when looking at election violence from an electoral integrity perspective that we come to realize that different forms of violence and intimidation may be targeting different types of people. A report that has documented incidents of election violence does suggest that there is a gendered dimension that needs further scrutiny. The report indicates that while female victims of election violence most often reported intimidation and psychological abuse, male victims typically experienced physical violence taking place in the public sphere (Bardall 2011). So far, no study has applied these insights to the experiences of politicians during elections. If there are, indeed, diverging experiences of male and female politicians during election periods, we need to design studies that are able to capture these different experiences. This project will build on earlier research as well as practical experiences in order to do so. It will combine insights from aggregated studies of incidents of election violence and interview-based case studies to design a survey study that records individual experiences, but in a systematic manner. It will survey political candidates, men and women, in Myanmar and Cambodia – two countries where election violence is a pertinent problem thwarting democratic development. The survey will be undertaken in close cooperation with international organizations with local offices in these countries. The project departs from the concern that if a large number of intimidating activities are undertaken in order to prevent women from running to office, but research and activities still are biased towards physical acts of election violence, what is captured and targeted may be a very masculine experience of election violence. This project is needed in order to fully map the range of illicit methods that are used to affect election outcomes, and to be able to subsequently design and implement programs and activities that mitigate the risks for both male and female politicians running for election.

Yes, despite common belief, cancer is increasingly becoming a disease preferentially affecting the poor. In 2008, WHO estimated that 57 % of cancer cases and 65 % of cancer deaths occurred in less developed countries, and the magnitude of the problem in low-income countries is expected to increase during coming decades. Stomach cancer is a major health problem. It is the third most common cause of cancer death in the world, affecting around 700 000 people every year, the large majority (> 70 %) in low- and middle-income countries. In the countries defined as "least developed" or "other low-income", it is estimated that 17 350 stomach cancer deaths currently occur each year. As a comparison, the Ebola epidemic of West Africa in 2014 caused 9980 deaths. Stomach cancer mortality to a high degree affects the poorest people in all countries, regardless of whether these individuals reside in a country defined as a low-income country or not. Thus, large numbers of deaths by stomach cancer occur among the most poor populations of low-middle income developing countries of Latin America and Asia. The disease is most often caused by a chronic infection with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, which is highly prevalent in less developed areas of the world. H. pylori infection is not a sufficient cause for stomach cancer, but other factors such as smoking and a poor diet add to the effects of the infection to increase risk of cancer development. Overall, around 2-3 % of infected individuals develop stomach cancer over the course of their life-time. An important barrier to improved health in the stomach cancer area is the fact that stomach cancer has very diffuse symptoms and therefore is diagnosed at a late stage. When the disease is discovered early, significantly increased long-term survival can be achieved by surgical treatment. A simple and low-cost method that can detect stomach cancer by screening in high-incidence countries would therefore be strongly beneficial. There are currently no biomarkers (identified biological markers) or screening tools available for stomach cancer. The current research project aims to establish and validate such a tool. The overall aim of the project is to develop a low-cost and minimally invasive screening test that can be used in low-income settings for identification of individuals affected by gastric cancer at an early stage of the disease. We propose to do this by detecting the natural biomarkers of the immune system: antibodies, using a low-cost lateral-flow assay. We will identify antibody signatures to H. pylori peptides that can be used to identify gastric cancer using blood or saliva samples. Our proposal rests on the fact that the immune response to H. pylori differs between individuals developing stomach cancer and individuals without cancer. The proposed project is an important part of an international collaboration between highly skilled research groups in Sweden, Nicaragua, Australia, Canada, Italy and USA, which are very well suited to conduct the outlined experiments due to long-standing expertise in mucosal immunology, immune assay development, H. pylori infection, oncology and cancer diagnosis. Specific aims of the project: 1. To identify a signature of Helicobacter pylori peptides that can be used as a screening tool to identify individuals with stomach cancer 2. To set up a low-cost test kit that allows use of this screening signature in low-income settings 3. To establish whether salivary samples can replace serum/plasma for screening If successful, our project will enable early detection and may thereby contribute to increased survival in stomach cancer disease in many of the poor countries around the world. Kan forskning om cancer verkligen vara till nytta för fattiga människor i låginkomstländer? Ja, trots vad de flesta tror, håller cancer alltmer på att bli en sjukdom som till största delen drabbar fattiga. År 2008 uppskattade WHO att 57 % av cancerfallen och 65 % av dödsfallen i cancer skedde i de mer lågutvecklade länderna. Problemet förväntas dessutom öka de närmaste decennierna. Magsäckscancer är ett stort hälsoproblem i världen. Det är den tredje vanligaste dödsorsaken i världen, med ca 700 000 dödsfall per år. Mer än 70 % av dessa återfinns i låg- och medelinkomstländer. I de länder som räknas som mest underutvecklade beräknas det att det varje år avlider mer än 17 000 människor pga magsäckscancer. Som jämförelse orsakade Ebolaepidemin i västafrika 2014-2015 ca 10 000 dödsfall. Magsäckscancer orsakas oftast av en kronisk infektion med magsäcksbakterien Helicobacter pylori. Infektionen är vanligast i de fattigare länderna i världen. De flesta som är infekterade utvecklar inte några allvarliga symptom, men 1-3 % drabbas av magsäckscancer. En orsak till den höga dödligheten i sjukdomen är att den är svårupptäckt, och därför oftast upptäcks för sent, när tumörcellerna redan har spridit sig i kroppen. Vid tidigare upptäckt kan man behandla genom att operera bort tumören, och man har då en mycket bättre chans att överleva sjukdomen. Projektets målsättning är att ta fram en metod eller ett test för att upptäcka magsäckscancer med ett blod- eller salivprov, och testet ska vara så billigt att det går att använda i stor skala i de fattigare länder där man löper stor risk att drabbas av magsäckscancer. Om vi lyckas med målsättningen kommer vi att kunna bidra till att dödligheten i magsäckscancer minskar i de länder där risken för sjukdomen är hög.

This project will focus on urban waste and sanitation in two Ugandan cities as these significantly impact the health of residents, and particularly the health of women and youth and have been widely documented to impact other development indicators, including school attendance, economic development, and gender equity. We will emphasize the politics of these services, including the contestation and negotiation that are part of the everyday use of residents. Our starting point is that residents use a diversity of sociotechnical options to obtain services, such as using flush toilets at school, paying to use a privately owned pit latrine, and making use of a distant open space. Building on African urbanist literature which urges us to start with cities in the South rather than established Northern theories and norms, we challenge the notion of the “infrastructure ideal” that suggests that the goal of service provision ought to be uniform, single-network services throughout the city. Instead, we focus our work on understanding the existing range of options and the processes undertaken to negotiate, contest, and improve what we call a “sociotechnical configuration” that helps to differentiate from a uniform and static systems view. Methodologically, we combine a study of everyday practices (using ethnographic methods) with studies of socio-technical configurations (using historical-interpretative and structural-quantitative methods) and our work will contribute theoretically to a number of fields, including infrastructure studies, urban political ecology, and global South urbanism. We seek to iteratively develop a conceptual framework to explain how infrastructure services are navigated, distributed and fought over, as well as how interventions can enable more just and sustainable services. We also believe that our work will have practical implications. We believe that shifting the focus from seeking large-scale, uniform solutions, towards implementing an array of services, can help urban ecosystems and human health. Our knowledge project seeks to foreground that heterogeneous sociotechnical configurations already provide residents with more options when services are interrupted. Rather than to ensure that nothing ever goes wrong, we suggest that resilience is increased by this multiplicity and should be built upon towards universal rights and provision.

This project will focus on urban waste and sanitation in two Ugandan cities as these significantly impact the health of residents, and particularly the health of women and youth and have been widely documented to impact other development indicators, including school attendance, economic development, and gender equity. We will emphasize the politics of these services, including the contestation and negotiation that are part of the everyday use of residents. Our starting point is that residents use a diversity of sociotechnical options to obtain services, such as using flush toilets at school, paying to use a privately owned pit latrine, and making use of a distant open space. Building on African urbanist literature which urges us to start with cities in the South rather than established Northern theories and norms, we challenge the notion of the “infrastructure ideal” that suggests that the goal of service provision ought to be uniform, single-network services throughout the city. Instead, we focus our work on understanding the existing range of options and the processes undertaken to negotiate, contest, and improve what we call a “sociotechnical configuration” that helps to differentiate from a uniform and static systems view. Methodologically, we combine a study of everyday practices (using ethnographic methods) with studies of socio-technical configurations (using historical-interpretative and structural-quantitative methods) and our work will contribute theoretically to a number of fields, including infrastructure studies, urban political ecology, and global South urbanism. We seek to iteratively develop a conceptual framework to explain how infrastructure services are navigated, distributed and fought over, as well as how interventions can enable more just and sustainable services. We also believe that our work will have practical implications. We believe that shifting the focus from seeking large-scale, uniform solutions, towards implementing an array of services, can help urban ecosystems and human health. Our knowledge project seeks to foreground that heterogeneous sociotechnical configurations already provide residents with more options when services are interrupted. Rather than to ensure that nothing ever goes wrong, we suggest that resilience is increased by this multiplicity and should be built upon towards universal rights and provision. Through numerous outputs, including local workshops, community video, and regional learning platforms, we seek to inform development agencies and other stakeholders on how investments can be channeled more effectively.

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. Mot hunger och fattigdom - mer och bättre mjölk från kameler med friska juver Pastoralister är herdefamiljer som lever med sina djur och flyttar mellan betesmarker. De håller får, getter, nötkreatur och kameler som betar på olika sätt och ofta kompletterar varandra istället för att konkurrera om betesväxterna. Pastoralister förvaltar ekosystemtjänster; de spelar en viktig roll för att minska effekten av klimatförändringarna genom att kol binds i deras betesmarker och de hjälper till att bevara biologisk mångfald av djur och växter. De bidrar i högsta grad till matförsörjningen i de stora öken- och torrområden som täcker halva jordens yta genom att deras djur producerar livsmedel, framför allt mjölk, för familjernas egen konsumtion och för avsalu. Till skillnad från kor och getter så mjölkar kamelerna under hela året. Kamelen betraktas därför av pastoralisterna som det mest värdefulla djuret eftersom den dels mjölkar så länge och också har en anmärkningsvärd förmåga att både överleva och producera mjölk under svåra förhållanden, särskilt vid vattenbrist. Familjens – särskilt barnens – hälsa kan förbättras tack vare tillgången på mjölk, och inkomsten ökar. Kenya består till 80 procent av öknar och torra områden och har den femte största populationen av kameler i världen. Nästan alla kameler ägs och sköts av pastoralister, både i torra områden och stadsnära. Mjölk från kameler betingar ett högt pris tack vare att den anses ha botande egenskaper och bara en begränsad mängd finns till salu. Kameler innebär en väsentlig resurs som mjölkproducenter och den kenyanska produktionen av kamelmjölk har stor potential att öka. Ökningen hämmas dock av flera faktorer, varav en viktig sådan är inflammation i kamelernas juver (mastit), en smittsam sjukdom som orsakas av bakterier och dåliga mjölkningsrutiner. Mastit leder till minskning av mjölkproduktionen och kan antingen vara lätt för pastoralisterna att lägga märka till – kamelen får svullet, ömt juver och feber – eller inte synlig för dem (subklinisk mastit). Även vid subklinisk mastit minskar mjölkmängden och mjölken får sämre kvalité eftersom bakterier finns i juvret. Dessutom växer kamelkalvarna sämre och fler av dem dör. Eftersom subklinisk mastit inte syns på kamelen så kommer ingen behandling att sättas in och kamelerna i hjorden kan fortsätta att smitta varandra. Subklinisk mastit med bakterien Streptococcus agalactiae är mycket vanlig och ger stort produktionsbortfall. Hos nötkreatur kan S. agalactiae kontrolleras genom enkla åtgärder som till exempel att gruppera kor med olika smittrisk och mjölka de smittade sist. Detta har inte provats för kameler i extensiv drift. Projektets syfte är att utarbeta strategier för att minska subklinisk mastit och utrota S. agalactiae i kamelhjordar hos pastoralister i Kenya. De olika delmålen är att studera förekomsten och identifiera spridningsvägarna för S. agalactiae, att ta fram riskfaktorer för subklinisk mastit, samt att utvärdera effekten av kontrollåtgärder. Målen ska uppnås genom ett bilateralt samarbete mellan svenska och kenyanska partners. I praktiken är projektet indelat i två delar, varav den ena delen är en förekomst-studie som omfattar 40 hjordar. Kamelerna i dessa hjordar ska undersökas och prover på mjölk mm tas från dem, och pastoralisterna ska engageras i deltagargrupper och intervjuas om djurskötsel, sjukdomar och attityder. Den andra delen är en studie över två år med regelbundna besök i fem hjordar där olika åtgärders användbarhet och effekt utvärderas. I Kenya ska bakterien S. agalactiae påvisas i proverna med hjälp av enkla robusta fältmetoder för att sedan karaktäriseras med avancerad molekylärbiologi i Sverige. På sikt ska projektet bidra till att öka kamelernas mjölkproduktion och därigenom mängden kamelmjölk både för pastoralist-familjernas egen konsumtion och för försäljning. Detta är ett sätt att öka tillgången på mat och minska fattigdom.

Specifically, we explore the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals that will replace the Millennium Development Goals in September 2015. The United Nations General Assembly’s adoption of the new goals will trigger a translation process of those into domestic policymaking with ensuing legitimation challenges that, we argue, condition future implementation prospects. When scholars have focused on legitimacy in global governance, they have primarily debated the normative standards against which international organizations should be judged. In contrast, we study the processes and sources that shape perceptions of legitimacy among development actors. Our theoretical framework includes a spectrum of legitimation and delegitimation strategies, a conceptualisation of the authors, audiences, and objects of legitimation, and the legitimacy sources and country level factors that condition legitimation processes. The research design is based on structured focused comparison and process tracing through interviews, participant observations and text-based analyses drawing on the rich post-2015 consultation material. The cases in focus are Ghana and Tanzania. Both countries have high stakes in the post-2015 goals but differ in how far they have come in socio-economic development as well as in degree of democratic consolidation, factors that we argue impact the conditions of national level legitimation. The empirical starting point of our study is the launch of the United Nations-convened national level consultations in 2012, while the empirical span of the project will end in 2018. The project’s findings are highly policy relevant as the new goals will provide political guidance for commitments and resource allocation in the realm of development between 2015 and 2030. Projektets syfte är att studera legitimering av globala politiska målsättningar på nationell nivå. Förenta Nationernas (FN:s) nya hållbara utvecklingsmål, ”Sustainable Development Goals”, ersätter FN:s Millenniemål i september 2015 och kommer att utgöra riktlinjer för utvecklingspolitik, prioriteringar och resursfördelning fram till år 2030. För att förankra de nya målen på bred front har FN sedan år 2012 strävat efter att skapa inkluderande konsultationer där representanter från internationella organisationer, stater, civilsamhället och näringslivet samt enskilda medborgare deltagit. Efter att FN:s Generalförsamling godkänt de nya målen inleds en ny fas då FN:s medlemsländer ska införliva målen nationellt och lokalt. Huruvida målen då uppfattas som legitima kommer att avgöra möjligheterna för deras förverkligande. Genom att studera den nationella nivån lyfter vi fram processer som inte tidigare studerats i samtida statsvetenskaplig forskning om legitimitet och internationella organisationer. Projektet utvecklar denna forskning genom att besvara frågan: hur legitimeras globalt utformad utvecklingspolicy när den ska förverkligas på nationell nivå? Projektet kommer att bidra med såväl teoretisk som empirisk kunskap. Vårt teoretiska bidrag handlar främst om att utveckla ett ramverk för att studera aktörers olika strategier för att söka eller ifrågasätta legitimitet, det vi kallar legitimering respektive delegitimering. Sådana strategier kan vara institutionella, diskursiva eller beteendemässiga och utövas med avsikt att påverka individers eller gruppers uppfattning om riktigheten i den förda politiken. Teoriutvecklingen gäller också grunderna för legitimitet, exempelvis grad av delaktighet i beslutsprocessen, innehållet i den föreslagna politiken, inslaget av expertkunskap eller effektiv problemlösning. Projektet studerar även skillnader mellan global och nationell nivå samt vilka maktrelationer (exempelvis finansiella, strukturella, kunskapsmässiga, normativa) som formar strategierna och reaktionerna på dessa. Vidare undersöks relationerna mellan processer som är toppstyrda och de som generas nerifrån och upp då globala mål ska anpassas till förhållanden inom ett land. Empiriskt bidrar vi med kunskap om tillkomsten av de nya hållbara utvecklingsmålen genom en jämförande fallstudie av Ghana och Tanzania. Länderna har haft omfattande FN-ledda konsultationer och har dessutom varit medlemmar av den FN-grupp som har utarbetat förslaget på de nya målen. Valet av länderna grundar sig även på skillnader som på teoretisk grund antas påverka hur global policy införlivas i nationell politik. Ghana uppvisar en högre ekonomisk utvecklingsnivå och har varit mer framgångsrikt med att uppnå de nuvarande Millenniemålen än Tanzania. Dessutom anses Ghanas demokrati vara konsoliderad medan Tanzania fortfarande kämpar med arvet från tidigare enpartistat. Dessa faktorer tror vi påverkar legitimeringsprocesserna i respektive land. Studien sträcker sig från början av FN:s konsultationer år 2012 till tre år efter det att målen formellt antagits av FN:s Generalförsamling. Projektets primärmaterial består av intervjuer, deltagande observationer samt ett omfattande textmaterial som producerats under konsultationer i Ghana och Tanzania men även efter målens formella antagande, exempelvis policyrelevanta dokument. Metodologiskt baseras studien på jämförande analys, process-spårning och textbaserad innehållsanalys. Genom den omfattande tillgången på empiriskt material utgör de nya utvecklingsmålen en unik möjlighet att utveckla forskningen om legitimitets betydelse för politiska målsättningar. Projektet är dessutom ytterst policyrelevant eftersom de nya målen kommer att ha stor inverkan på utvecklingspolitik fram till år 2030.

The project’s findings are highly policy relevant as the new goals will provide political guidance for commitments and resource allocation in the realm of development between 2015 and 2030. Projektets syfte är att studera legitimering av globala politiska målsättningar på nationell nivå. Förenta Nationernas (FN:s) nya hållbara utvecklingsmål, ”Sustainable Development Goals”, ersätter FN:s Millenniemål i september 2015 och kommer att utgöra riktlinjer för utvecklingspolitik, prioriteringar och resursfördelning fram till år 2030. För att förankra de nya målen på bred front har FN sedan år 2012 strävat efter att skapa inkluderande konsultationer där representanter från internationella organisationer, stater, civilsamhället och näringslivet samt enskilda medborgare deltagit. Efter att FN:s Generalförsamling godkänt de nya målen inleds en ny fas då FN:s medlemsländer ska införliva målen nationellt och lokalt. Huruvida målen då uppfattas som legitima kommer att avgöra möjligheterna för deras förverkligande. Genom att studera den nationella nivån lyfter vi fram processer som inte tidigare studerats i samtida statsvetenskaplig forskning om legitimitet och internationella organisationer. Projektet utvecklar denna forskning genom att besvara frågan: hur legitimeras globalt utformad utvecklingspolicy när den ska förverkligas på nationell nivå? Projektet kommer att bidra med såväl teoretisk som empirisk kunskap. Vårt teoretiska bidrag handlar främst om att utveckla ett ramverk för att studera aktörers olika strategier för att söka eller ifrågasätta legitimitet, det vi kallar legitimering respektive delegitimering. Sådana strategier kan vara institutionella, diskursiva eller beteendemässiga och utövas med avsikt att påverka individers eller gruppers uppfattning om riktigheten i den förda politiken. Teoriutvecklingen gäller också grunderna för legitimitet, exempelvis grad av delaktighet i beslutsprocessen, innehållet i den föreslagna politiken, inslaget av expertkunskap eller effektiv problemlösning. Projektet studerar även skillnader mellan global och nationell nivå samt vilka maktrelationer (exempelvis finansiella, strukturella, kunskapsmässiga, normativa) som formar strategierna och reaktionerna på dessa. Vidare undersöks relationerna mellan processer som är toppstyrda och de som generas nerifrån och upp då globala mål ska anpassas till förhållanden inom ett land. Empiriskt bidrar vi med kunskap om tillkomsten av de nya hållbara utvecklingsmålen genom en jämförande fallstudie av Ghana och Tanzania. Länderna har haft omfattande FN-ledda konsultationer och har dessutom varit medlemmar av den FN-grupp som har utarbetat förslaget på de nya målen. Valet av länderna grundar sig även på skillnader som på teoretisk grund antas påverka hur global policy införlivas i nationell politik. Ghana uppvisar en högre ekonomisk utvecklingsnivå och har varit mer framgångsrikt med att uppnå de nuvarande Millenniemålen än Tanzania. Dessutom anses Ghanas demokrati vara konsoliderad medan Tanzania fortfarande kämpar med arvet från tidigare enpartistat. Dessa faktorer tror vi påverkar legitimeringsprocesserna i respektive land. Studien sträcker sig från början av FN:s konsultationer år 2012 till tre år efter det att målen formellt antagits av FN:s Generalförsamling. Projektets primärmaterial består av intervjuer, deltagande observationer samt ett omfattande textmaterial som producerats under konsultationer i Ghana och Tanzania men även efter målens formella antagande, exempelvis policyrelevanta dokument. Metodologiskt baseras studien på jämförande analys, process-spårning och textbaserad innehållsanalys. Genom den omfattande tillgången på empiriskt material utgör de nya utvecklingsmålen en unik möjlighet att utveckla forskningen om legitimitets betydelse för politiska målsättningar. Projektet är dessutom ytterst policyrelevant eftersom de nya målen kommer att ha stor inverkan på utvecklingspolitik fram till år 2030.

Such diseases represent one of the leading causes of illness and death from infectious disease. In most developing countries, zoonotic diseases are among those diseases that contribute significantly to an already overly burdened public health system. Infectious and parasitic diseases rank second among the "top killers" of the world and in low-income countries, especially in Africa, these diseases are even the dominant causes of death. The countrywide economic loss due to zoonotic disease is immense, cementing poverty and underdevelopment in many regions of the world. The two populations whose biological and social realities put them at greater risk for the negative impacts of zoonotic diseases are women and children. The present project will, in a multidisciplinary collaboration between a PhD student to be employed in the project and senior researchers at Uppsala University, the UN organ FAO/IAEA labs in Africa, Stockholm University, the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, develop a novel, sensitive, low-cost, diagnostics unit, providing an efficient analytical platform for detection of pathogens causing zoonotic infections in under-developed countries. The unit is based on state-of-the-art nano- and biotechnology and combines analysis of changes in rotation dynamics of probe-tagged magnetic nanobeads with a single-molecule detection approach which applies padlock ligation technique and rolling circle amplification (RCA) of the probed pathogen biomolecules (RNA and DNA). Specifically the project contains a number of well-defined, subtasks including: • Optimization and development of DNA-base detection of organisms having constant target sequence (first 18 months) and RNA-base detection of organisms having variable target sequence (year 1.5-3.5). This work includes extraction and purification of DNA/RNA target from samples received from the above mentioned labs in Africa as well as design of padlock probes and capture probes. • Optimization of the conjugation protocol used for attaching biomolecules on the surface of the magnetic nanobeads (first 24 months). • Measurements of the RCA products formed from the new padlock probes using the bead-based magnetic bioassay in a commercial AC suceptometer (year 2-3.5). This includes: Determining the limit of detection for the different pathogens, detection of antimicrobial resistance and resistant clones (salmonella and campylobacter), detection of a wide range of different strains of E. coli, investigation of mixed viral populations, subpopulations and individual copies of Avian influenza virus, West Nile virus and Rift Valley Fever virus in clinical samples, introducing new variants of the three viruses in the diagnostic assay. • Detection of pathogen targets in a working prototype of an on-chip magnetoresistive sensor based on the planar Hall effect developed in collaboration with DTU (years 3-5). This includes having 1-3 working prototypes ready for on-site tests at the FAO/IAEA connected labs in Kenya, Uganda, Mozambique, the Ivory Coast, Ghana, and/or Angola in order to get immediate feedback regarding both handling and robustness of the prototype. It is, to our knowledge, the first detection principle that combines high sensitivity with potentially very low production cost and being easy to use, making it suitable for early diagnoses of people living in close proximity to livestock and poultry in areas lacking advanced healthcare units. It should thus be suitable for hindering the spread of epidemics severely affecting the most vulnerable people in low income countries while simultaneously contributing to a more sustainable food production. Ungefär 75 procent av de nya typer av infektioner som har drabbar människor under de senaste 10 åren är zoonoser; sjukdomar som orsakas av mikroorganismer som överförs mellan djur och människor. Detta beror bland annat på störningar i den ekologiska balansen, som t.ex. klimatförändringen, befolkningsökningen och urbanisering i u-länder samt ökat resande. I låginkomstländer, särskilt i Afrika, utgör infektionssjukdomar den dominerande dödsorsaken. De ekonomiska förlusterna för länder som är hårdast drabbade av zoonoser är enorma, vilket cementerar fattigdom och underutveckling i många delar av världen. I syfte att minimera och även eliminera spridningen av sjukdomar från djur till människor i u-länder, är tidiga diagnoser av boskap, fjäderfä och människor som bor och arbetar i nära anslutning till djuren avgörande. Dagens avancerade diagnostik kräver tillgång till välutrustade labb eller sjukhus, något som allvarligt hindrar underutvecklade regioner att dra nytta av de stora framsteg i bioteknik som har skett under de senaste decennierna. Målet med detta projekt är att utveckla en ny typ av känsliga och billiga diagnostikenheter som är enkla att använda och som inte kräver tillgång till avancerade sjukvårdsenheter för att möjliggöra snabb detektion av patogener som orsakar zoonotiska infektioner i underutvecklade länder. Detta kommer att göras i samarbete med FN organet FAO/IAEA och deras labb i bl.a. Kenya, Uganda, Mocambique, Elfenbenskusten, Ghana, Angola och Sydafrika. Baserat på tidig upptäckt, kombinerat med känslig, specifik och snabb identifiering av nya och framväxande patogener, kan infektioners spridningsvägar snabbt skäras av, lämpliga skyddsåtgärder kan omedelbart sättas in och epidemier elimineras. Detektionsprincipen som används i detta projekt kombinerar en molekylär avläsningsprincip med analys av hur rotationsrörelser hos magnetiska nanopartiklar (NP) ändras när provet som testas innehåller komplementära DNA-sekvenser till det igenkännings-DNA som bundits till NP-ytan. Den förstnämnda principen använder sig av så kallade hänglåsprober och rullande cirkel amplifiering (RCA) av molekylerna som detekteras i provet och innebär att testerna har möjlighet att göras flera tusen gånger känsligare än andra magnetodynamiska utläsningsformat. När enheten aktiveras exciteras ett växlande magnetfält i sensorelementet vari en vätska innehållande funktionaliserade NP och RCA-produkter befinner sig. Sensorn läser av ändringen i nanopartiklarnas magnetiska svar på magnetfältet och beroende på applikationsområde får användaren antingen ett JA- eller NEJ-svar på om provet innehöll det man letade efter eller mer kvantitativ information om flera olika målmolekyler i provet (avancerad diagnostik). I detta projekt ska detektion av virus som orsakar fågelinfluensa, West Nile-feber och Rift Valley-feber samt bakterier som Salmonella, Campylobakter och E.Coli, (dvs både DNA och RNA baserade patogener) utvecklas. Detektionsprincipen är, så vitt vi vet, den första som kombinerar hög känslighet och robusthet med mycket enkel hantering vilket möjliggör användning utan höga krav på utbildningsnivå. Den kommer dessutom att implementeras på en integrerad plattform som bygger på smarta och billiga elektromagnetiska komponenter som inte innehåller dyra optiska element vilket öppnar upp för mycket låga produktionskostnader. Detta gör detektionsprincipen lämplig för tidig diagnos av boskap, fjäderfä och människor som bor och arbetar i nära anslutning till djuren i områden som saknar avancerade sjukvårdsenheter i syfte att hindra spridningen av epidemier som drabbar de mest utsatta människorna i låginkomstländer hårt och samtidigt bidra till en mer hållbar livsmedelsproduktion i dessa länder. Vi hoppas att projektet skall bidra till att människor i u-länder får möjlighet att kunna dra nytta av de enorma framsteg som gjorts inom bioteknologi och som bidragit att vi i industrialiserade länder har fått mycket bättre kontroll över vår egen hälsa.

Målet med detta projekt är att utveckla en ny typ av känsliga och billiga diagnostikenheter som är enkla att använda och som inte kräver tillgång till avancerade sjukvårdsenheter för att möjliggöra snabb detektion av patogener som orsakar zoonotiska infektioner i underutvecklade länder. Detta kommer att göras i samarbete med FN organet FAO/IAEA och deras labb i bl.a. Kenya, Uganda, Mocambique, Elfenbenskusten, Ghana, Angola och Sydafrika. Baserat på tidig upptäckt, kombinerat med känslig, specifik och snabb identifiering av nya och framväxande patogener, kan infektioners spridningsvägar snabbt skäras av, lämpliga skyddsåtgärder kan omedelbart sättas in och epidemier elimineras. Detektionsprincipen som används i detta projekt kombinerar en molekylär avläsningsprincip med analys av hur rotationsrörelser hos magnetiska nanopartiklar (NP) ändras när provet som testas innehåller komplementära DNA-sekvenser till det igenkännings-DNA som bundits till NP-ytan. Den förstnämnda principen använder sig av så kallade hänglåsprober och rullande cirkel amplifiering (RCA) av molekylerna som detekteras i provet och innebär att testerna har möjlighet att göras flera tusen gånger känsligare än andra magnetodynamiska utläsningsformat. När enheten aktiveras exciteras ett växlande magnetfält i sensorelementet vari en vätska innehållande funktionaliserade NP och RCA-produkter befinner sig. Sensorn läser av ändringen i nanopartiklarnas magnetiska svar på magnetfältet och beroende på applikationsområde får användaren antingen ett JA- eller NEJ-svar på om provet innehöll det man letade efter eller mer kvantitativ information om flera olika målmolekyler i provet (avancerad diagnostik). I detta projekt ska detektion av virus som orsakar fågelinfluensa, West Nile-feber och Rift Valley-feber samt bakterier som Salmonella, Campylobakter och E.Coli, (dvs både DNA och RNA baserade patogener) utvecklas. Detektionsprincipen är, så vitt vi vet, den första som kombinerar hög känslighet och robusthet med mycket enkel hantering vilket möjliggör användning utan höga krav på utbildningsnivå. Den kommer dessutom att implementeras på en integrerad plattform som bygger på smarta och billiga elektromagnetiska komponenter som inte innehåller dyra optiska element vilket öppnar upp för mycket låga produktionskostnader. Detta gör detektionsprincipen lämplig för tidig diagnos av boskap, fjäderfä och människor som bor och arbetar i nära anslutning till djuren i områden som saknar avancerade sjukvårdsenheter i syfte att hindra spridningen av epidemier som drabbar de mest utsatta människorna i låginkomstländer hårt och samtidigt bidra till en mer hållbar livsmedelsproduktion i dessa länder. Vi hoppas att projektet skall bidra till att människor i u-länder får möjlighet att kunna dra nytta av de enorma framsteg som gjorts inom bioteknologi och som bidragit att vi i industrialiserade länder har fått mycket bättre kontroll över vår egen hälsa.

Such diseases represent one of the leading causes of illness and death from infectious disease. In most developing countries, zoonotic diseases are among those diseases that contribute significantly to an already overly burdened public health system. Infectious and parasitic diseases rank second among the "top killers" of the world and in low-income countries, especially in Africa, these diseases are even the dominant causes of death. The countrywide economic loss due to zoonotic disease is immense, cementing poverty and underdevelopment in many regions of the world. The two populations whose biological and social realities put them at greater risk for the negative impacts of zoonotic diseases are women and children. The present project will, in a multidisciplinary collaboration between a PhD student to be employed in the project and senior researchers at Uppsala University, the UN organ FAO/IAEA labs in Africa, Stockholm University, the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, develop a novel, sensitive, low-cost, diagnostics unit, providing an efficient analytical platform for detection of pathogens causing zoonotic infections in under-developed countries. The unit is based on state-of-the-art nano- and biotechnology and combines analysis of changes in rotation dynamics of probe-tagged magnetic nanobeads with a single-molecule detection approach which applies padlock ligation technique and rolling circle amplification (RCA) of the probed pathogen biomolecules (RNA and DNA). Specifically the project contains a number of well-defined, subtasks including: • Optimization and development of DNA-base detection of organisms having constant target sequence (first 18 months) and RNA-base detection of organisms having variable target sequence (year 1.5-3.5). This work includes extraction and purification of DNA/RNA target from samples received from the above mentioned labs in Africa as well as design of padlock probes and capture probes. • Optimization of the conjugation protocol used for attaching biomolecules on the surface of the magnetic nanobeads (first 24 months). • Measurements of the RCA products formed from the new padlock probes using the bead-based magnetic bioassay in a commercial AC suceptometer (year 2-3.5). This includes: Determining the limit of detection for the different pathogens, detection of antimicrobial resistance and resistant clones (salmonella and campylobacter), detection of a wide range of different strains of E. coli, investigation of mixed viral populations, subpopulations and individual copies of Avian influenza virus, West Nile virus and Rift Valley Fever virus in clinical samples, introducing new variants of the three viruses in the diagnostic assay. • Detection of pathogen targets in a working prototype of an on-chip magnetoresistive sensor based on the planar Hall effect developed in collaboration with DTU (years 3-5). This includes having 1-3 working prototypes ready for on-site tests at the FAO/IAEA connected labs in Kenya, Uganda, Mozambique, the Ivory Coast, Ghana, and/or Angola in order to get immediate feedback regarding both handling and robustness of the prototype. It is, to our knowledge, the first detection principle that combines high sensitivity with potentially very low production cost and being easy to use, making it suitable for early diagnoses of people living in close proximity to livestock and poultry in areas lacking advanced healthcare units. It should thus be suitable for hindering the spread of epidemics severely affecting the most vulnerable people in low income countries while simultaneously contributing to a more sustainable food production. Ungefär 75 procent av de nya typer av infektioner som har drabbar människor under de senaste 10 åren är zoonoser; sjukdomar som orsakas av mikroorganismer som överförs mellan djur och människor. Detta beror bland annat på störningar i den ekologiska balansen, som t.ex. klimatförändringen, befolkningsökningen och urbanisering i u-länder samt ökat resande. I låginkomstländer, särskilt i Afrika, utgör infektionssjukdomar den dominerande dödsorsaken. De ekonomiska förlusterna för länder som är hårdast drabbade av zoonoser är enorma, vilket cementerar fattigdom och underutveckling i många delar av världen. I syfte att minimera och även eliminera spridningen av sjukdomar från djur till människor i u-länder, är tidiga diagnoser av boskap, fjäderfä och människor som bor och arbetar i nära anslutning till djuren avgörande.

The performance of the materials in devices will be tested in WP4. We believe that the organic electronic community in Sweden will be well connected to the related research activities in Ethiopia and our concerted efforts will make significant contribution in filling the knowledge gap in this field and provide high quality graphene materials to the community of Swedish scientists for further studies. Organisk elektronik, framförallt organisk fotovoltaisk teknik (OPV), organiska lysdioder (OLED) och organiska fälteffekttransistorer (OFET) har potentialen att påverka nästan alla delar i det moderna samhället. De kan komma att påverka hur vi lyser upp våra hem, hur vi sparar och återhämtar information och även hur vi driver elektronik. Jämfört med oorganisk elektronik har organisk elektronik attraherat stort intresse på grund av dess fördelar såsom lättviktighet, flexibilitet och möjligheten till billig produktion genom bearbetning i lösning. Dessvärre begränsas deras praktiska applikation av låg stabilitet och dålig prestanda. Därför finns det ett stort behov av att utveckla nya material för att förbättra prestandan hos organisk elektronik och ytterligare sänka produktionskostnaden. Sen den banbrytande rapporten år 2004 av Geim och Novoselov (Nobelpriset I fysik 2010) har grafen attraherat mycket uppmärksamhet för ett stort antal användningsområden. Grafen är ett tunt lager av rent kol; det är ett enda tätt packat lager av kolatomer, sammanlänkade i hexagonal bikakestruktur. Det är det tunnaste kända materialet med endast en atoms tjocklek, det lättaste materialet (1 m2 väger runt 0,77 mg), det starkaste materialet (runt 100-300 gånger starkare än stål), det har även den högsta värmeledande- och elektriskt ledande förmågan vid rumstemperatur (elektronmobilitet på mer än 15 000 cm2V-1s-1). Det största hindret för kommersiell spridning är i dagsläget att produktion av högkvalitativ grafen är en mycket dyr och komplex process. Inspirerad av de unika egenskaperna hos grafen och projektet Graphene Flagship som koordineras av Chalmers Tekniska Högskola, har vi planer att arbeta med syntesen av grafenliknande material för möjliga användningsområden inom organisk elektronik. Detta projekt har det ambitiösa målet att utveckla grafenliknande material som alternativ för transparenta elektroder, som ytskiktslager och som acceptormaterial för OPV, då grafen har både hög optisk transparens, elektrisk ledningsförmåga och mekanisk flexibilitet. Projektet kommer att utföras i fyra arbetspaket (WPs). WP1 fokuserar på molekylär design och datorberäkningar av nya grafenstrukturer. Olika typer av grafener kommer att syntetiseras i WP2 med hjälp av resultaten från WP1. Materialet som syntetiseras i WP2 kommer att karakteriseras i WP3. Slutligen kommer material med lovande egenskaper i WP4 användas för att producera OPV-enheter, OLEDs och OFETs för att testa prestanda och stabilitet.

Årliga konferenser och regelbundna videokonferenser (var tredje månad) kommer hållas för att överse framstegen i projektet. För att utbyta kunskap och förstå varandra på ett bättre sätt kommer 6 utstationeringar hållas (3 i Sverige och 3 i Etiopien) under projektets livstid. Båda projektledarna (EW och WM) och doktorander kommer involveras i utstationeringarna. Varaktigheten kan vara en månad eller längre per tillfälle, beroende på omständigheterna.

Repeated stress may result in neurohormonal imbalance and increase the risk for hypertension and future cardiovascular (CV) disease. Given that the global prevalence of hypertension is now among the top risk factors for death, we hypothesise that stress in youth, perceived differently in different socio-economic environments, is a major cause of future hypertension. Simultaneous study of both low-and high income countries with large gaps in health equity, will give an unique possibility to examine and follow the emerging CV risk and unravel the predictive determinants for health. Together with our collaborative partner, the African Population Health and Research Center (APHRC), we will establish 3 cohorts by recruiting 13 year-olds from schools in Nairobi (Kenya), in Blantyre (Malawi) and in Västra Götaland (Sweden) to study self-perceived stress, demographic data and physiological determinants of stress and resilience in a longitudinal life-course perspective. Individual follow-up is planned in each country after 2, 5 and 10 years following baseline examination. The arm in Sweden has already commenced and in Nairobi the HDSS is identified and about to start and in Blantyre a cohort needs to be established. We want to create a long-term scientific platform with close collaboration with Kenya and Malawi in order to prevent/reduce stress and thereby minimising Stressnivån och bördan av mental ohälsa hos ungdomar är hög, med olika symtombilder i olika åldrar och mellan könen. Upprepad stress kan ge upphov till neurohormonell obalans och öka framtida risk för hypertoni och hjärt-kärl-sjukdom. Under de senaste 20 åren har förekomsten av högt blodtryck blivit den vanligaste riskfaktorn för död globalt, alltså både i låg- och höginkomstländer. För låginkomstländer är detta särskilt svårt eftersom deras befolkning drabbas dubbelt; dels av infektioner och nu på frammarsch icke-smittsamma sjukdomar som hjärt-kärl-lung och cancersjukdomar och diabetes. Vi vill testa hypotesen att stress och mental ohälsa, upplevd i olika socio-ekonomiska miljöer, är en stark orsak till senare utveckling av hypertoni med påföljande risk för både stroke och hjärt-kärlsjukdom. Att få möjlighet att studera, simultant, stress och självupplevd hälsa hos ungdomar i både låg- och höginkomstländer, med uttalad ojämlik i hälsa och hälsosystem, ger oss en unik möjlighet att undersöka och följa hälsoutvecklingen hos ungdomarna över tid, med särskilt fokus på betydelsen av stress och resilience för uppkomsten av hypertoni och kardiovaskulära riskfaktorer. Det är mindre känt vilka faktorer som främjar resiliens, dvs individens förmåga att återhämta sig från stress, och därmed minska risken för att utveckla fetma och hjärt-kärlsjukdom. Vi vill testa hypotesen att hög stress och låg resiliens under tonåren leder till förhöjt blodtryck i vuxen ålder. I nära samarbete med vår Afrikanska forskningspartner APHRC* (African Population Health Research Center) har vi som målsättning att bilda 3 kohorter med rekrytering av 13-åriga ungdomar från skolor i Nairobi (Kenya), i Blantyre (Malawi) och i Västra Götaland (Sverige) för att studera självupplevd stress och mental ohälsa, välbefinnande, demografi och fysiologiska bestämningsfaktorer av stress och återhämtning i ett livsperspektiv. Individer undersöks vid studiestart och kommer sedan även att följas individuellt över tid med upprepade undersökningar efter 2, 5 och 10 år. Rekrytering och undersökningar har startat i Sverige och i Nairobi finns redan en HDSS etablerad med regelbundna undersökningar av familjer med 13-åringar att inkludera. I Malawi behöver vi sätta upp en ny kohort. Vi vill skapa ett longitudinellt vetenskapligt underlag genom en gemensam vetenskaplig plattform med 3 länder representerande både låg- (Kenya och Malawi)- och höginkomstland (Sverige), i syfte att påverka ungdomars livsvillkor för att förhindra/minska stress och därmed reducera risken för framtida hypertoni, stroke och hjärt-kärlsjukdom. Likaså att identifiera viktiga skyddsfaktorer som motverkar stress. * APHRC blev nu i April 2015 mottagare av det prestigefyllda FN-priset “Population Award”.

We outline a collaborative HIV research project, using technology and transfer from Sweden to enable laboratory assays and data analysis to be established and conducted at EPHI. The project also includes knowledge transfers and training opportunities for EPHI investigators in laboratory based investigations, sequence data management and analysis, and in disseminating research findings in international forums, with the aim of increasing scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals with EPHI scientists as first author. The partnership will allow us investigate patterns of antiretroviral drug resistance in Ethiopian human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive individuals – both before and during antiretroviral therapy (ART) – through virological, molecular epidemiology and socio-demographic characteristics. It will also allow us to extend our studies to include state-of-the art molecular epidemiology investigations of HIV to specifically address transmission routes between high-risk populations (female sex workers and long distance truck drivers) and the general population. This will be the first large-scale population study of antiretroviral drug resistance since the roll-out of ART in Ethiopia and it will provide valuable information on the current status of the HIV epidemic in the country. Det övergripande syftet med projektet är att stärka ett pågående forskningssamarbetet mellan forskare på det Etiopiska Folkhälsoinstitutet (Ethiopian Public Health Institute: EPHI), Addis Abeba, Etiopien och Lunds universitet, Sverige. EPHI är en statlig institution som på uppdrag av hälsoministeriet ansvarar för att bedriva forskning och tekniköverföring samt att övervaka folkhälsan i Etiopien. I samarbetsprojekt kommer vi att etablera nya laboratorie- och dataanalyser i Etiopien. I projektet ingår även kunskapsöverföring och utbildningsmöjligheter för Etiopiska forskare inom laboratoriebaserade undersökningar, datahantering och analys, med syftet att öka publikationer i vetenskapliga tidskrifter med etiopiska forskare som förstaförfattare. Samarbetet kommer att fokusera på läkemedelsresistens hos humant immunbristvirus (HIV)-positiva personer - både före och under behandling. I projektet kommer även studier avseende molekylärepidemiologi av HIV att utföras, med fokus på smittvägar mellan högriskpopulationer (prostituerade och lastbilschaufförer) och den generella befolkningen. Även om HIV infektioner har rapporterats att ha minskat under det senaste decenniet, sprider sig viruset fortfarande i befolkningen. För närvarande pågår en studie i Etiopien som fokuserar på HIV-prevalensen bland prostituerade och lastbilschaufförer. Preliminära resultat tyder på att HIV-prevalensen bland lastbilschaufförer är 4,9% och bland kvinnliga sexarbetare 23,8%. Detta innebär att den etiopiska HIV-epidemin förskjuts att bli mer endemisk koncentrerad i vissa högriskpopulationer. Vi kommer i våra studier att använda material från flera större kohorter i Etiopien för att studera dynamiken av smittspridningen. Vi kommer att studera vilken inverkan läkemedelsresistens och virustyper (subtyper och rekombinanta typer) har på transmissionsdynamiken i befolkningen. Vi har följande specifika mål: 1) Undersöka hur vanligt det är med överförd läkemedelsresistens genom att undersöka HIV- behandlingsnaiva individer 2) Undersöka utvecklingen av läkemedelsresistens över tid hos personer som är under behandling, i syfte att identifiera riskfaktorer för uppkomst av resistens, vilket kan bidra i utformningen av ny behandling 3) Undersöka smittspridning mellan högriskpopulationer och den generella befolkningen, vilket kan bidra i utformningen av förebyggande åtgärder för HIV-infektion Vår studie kommer att vara det första storskaliga populationsstudiet med avseende på antiretroviral resistens efter det att behandling av HIV-smitta infördes i Etiopien. Studierna kommer också att bidra med värdefull information angående den aktuella statusen av HIV-epidemin i landet. För närvarande är information avseende dessa aspekter knapphändig, och studierna har en direkt relevans för anpassning av program för förebyggande åtgärder och behandling av HIV-infektion i landet. Eftersom dessa studier till stor del kommer att utföras i Etiopien kommer kapacitetsuppbyggnad vara en avgörande komponent för studien.

Yet, for endorsing its expected expansion, further development is needed to ensure sustainable farming practices, increase production and mitigated environmental impact. The aim of the proposed, three year project, is to increase farming outcome by identifying native seaweeds for replacing the present ecologically unsustainable use of non-indigenous Asian strains. By mapping native seaweed populations, their performance and adaptive capacity to climate change, strains suitable for commercial cultivation will be identified and tested. Further will the need for improved seaweed management and policy strategies of denuded seaweed beds for maintained ecosystem diversity and function be investigated. The project will be carried out jointly by all project leaders and promote local capacity for farming development and the scientific collaboration between Sweden and Tanzania. Both molecular and more traditional techniques will be used. Ecophysiological studies under controlled and in situ conditions will tell the strains´ commercial quality and stress tolerance. The results will be jointly published in scientific journals and by outreach to stakeholders with open workshops, and contribute to improve the sustainability of seaweed farming and thereby secure its ability for providing continuous poverty reduction in East Africa. Kan inhemska alger rädda Östafrikas algodlingar? Algodling hör framtiden till. Utan att konkurrera om vare sig färskvatten, den odlingsbara jorden eller andra icke förnyelsebara resurser kan alger förse oss med stora kvantiteter föda, foder och kanske även biobränsle. Framgångssagan hur kvinnor i fattiga kustbyar på Zanzibar genom att odla marina makroalger kan tjäna egna pengar och förbättra livssituationen för sin familj och bli ekonomiskt mer oberoende fortgår och sprider sig till kusterna i omkringliggande länder. Förhoppningen är att odlandet skall fortsätta expandera, samtidigt försämrar klimatförändringarna algernas produktivitet och kvalitet vilket inneburit minskade skördar och inkomster. Ny forskning visar även att de odlade algerna som ursprungligen kommer från Asien sprider sig till områden utanför odlingarna där de har blivit vanliga och har negativ påverkan på den inhemska algfloran. Tillsammans innebär detta att den hitintills framgångsrika Östafrikanska algodlingen står inför stora utmaningar. Detta samarbetesprojekt syftar till att förbättra den Östafrikanska algodlingens potential till att även i fortsättningen vara högproduktiv och bidra till fattigdomsbekämpning, men även till att minimera dess negativa ekologiska påverkan. En orsak till problemet är klimatförändringar med förhöjda vattentemperaturer som gör att algerna växer sämre och eventuellt även gör dem mer mottagliga för sjukdomar. Det finns farhågor att de odlade asiatiska algernas oförmåga att anpassa sig till förändringarna beror att deras genetiska diversitet är för liten. I projektet kommer svenska och Tanzaniska forskare att tillsammans kartlägga populationer av inhemska afrikanska alger och undersöka om någon eller några har de kvaliteter som krävs för att vara kommersiellt odlingsbara. Detta kommer att testas i en rad försök där algernas tillväxt och kvalitet jämförs då de odlas under olika miljöförhållanden, t ex under höga temperaturer. På detta sätt kan odlingsbara inhemska alternativ till de asiatiska algerna identifieras. Projektet kommer även att ge ökad kunskap om hur de odlade varianterna spridit sig och hur de konkurrerar med de inhemska algerna samt hur de påverkar ekosystemens funktion mer generellt. P g a spridningsrisken och dess negativa följder bör ytterligare introduktion av asiatiska varianter för att vitalisera de afrikanska odlingarna om möjligt undvikas. Projektets mål att hitta inhemska varianter och arter som går att odla kommersiellt är därför av avgörande betydelse för att upprätthålla och utveckla den Östafrikanska algodlingen. Behovet av en mer uttalad och förbättrad förvaltning av befintliga vilda algbestånd kommer projektet också att undersöka. Detta för att säkerställa algernas diversitet och produktivitet . Resultatet av studien förväntas kunna förbättra och säkra produktiviteten i de östafrikanska algodlingarna, främst genom en ökad diversitet, vilket kommer att stärka de lokala algodlarnas situation och utkomst. Resultaten kommer även att ge information som kan förbättra riskanalyser i samband med introduktion av främmande arter som liksom den nya samlade kunskapen om algernas fysiologi och egenskaper kan komma att få betydelse även för algodlare utanför Östafrika och vattenbruket i stort.

I projektet kommer svenska och Tanzaniska forskare att tillsammans kartlägga populationer av inhemska afrikanska alger och undersöka om någon eller några har de kvaliteter som krävs för att vara kommersiellt odlingsbara. Detta kommer att testas i en rad försök där algernas tillväxt och kvalitet jämförs då de odlas under olika miljöförhållanden, t ex under höga temperaturer. På detta sätt kan odlingsbara inhemska alternativ till de asiatiska algerna identifieras. Projektet kommer även att ge ökad kunskap om hur de odlade varianterna spridit sig och hur de konkurrerar med de inhemska algerna samt hur de påverkar ekosystemens funktion mer generellt. P g a spridningsrisken och dess negativa följder bör ytterligare introduktion av asiatiska varianter för att vitalisera de afrikanska odlingarna om möjligt undvikas. Projektets mål att hitta inhemska varianter och arter som går att odla kommersiellt är därför av avgörande betydelse för att upprätthålla och utveckla den Östafrikanska algodlingen. Behovet av en mer uttalad och förbättrad förvaltning av befintliga vilda algbestånd kommer projektet också att undersöka. Detta för att säkerställa algernas diversitet och produktivitet . Resultatet av studien förväntas kunna förbättra och säkra produktiviteten i de östafrikanska algodlingarna, främst genom en ökad diversitet, vilket kommer att stärka de lokala algodlarnas situation och utkomst. Resultaten kommer även att ge information som kan förbättra riskanalyser i samband med introduktion av främmande arter som liksom den nya samlade kunskapen om algernas fysiologi och egenskaper kan komma att få betydelse även för algodlare utanför Östafrika och vattenbruket i stort.

With the substantial increase in antiretroviral treatment in Sub-Saharan Africa in recent years, the mean age of people living with HIV is rising, and with it the risk of CVD. This is especially important since there also seems to be a genetic predisposition to CVD in Sub-Saharan Africa. In the Rakai population-based, open cohort in Uganda, data collection with almost yearly HIV tests has been ongoing since 1994 in ca 50 villages. This offers an excellent opportunity to estimate the risk of CVD in an HIV high-burden population using surveys, risk scores, anthropometric data, verbal autopsies and finally the Arteriograph armcuff to measure aortic stiffness as a proxy of early cardiovascular risk. The results from the planned studies with accurate data on onset of HIV infection, will not only help estimate the CVD risk, but also provide new insight into the pathophysiological process of development of atherosclerosis and duration of HIV infection. Starting off with this four-year project, the Karolinska and the Rakai teams, aim to develop a long-term common research agenda.

Den svartvita världsordning som varit rådande de senaste decennierna, där befolkningen i låginkomstländer dör av smittsamma sjukdomar såsom malaria, tuberkulos och HIV och befolkningen i höginkomstländer dör av icke-smittsamma sjukdomar som hjärtinfarkt, stroke och cancer, gäller inte längre. Två tredjedelar av alla dödsfall i världen beror idag på icke-smittsamma sjukdomar, och de flesta av dessa dödsfall inträffar i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Många av dessa dödsfall inträffar också tidigare i åldrarna än i höginkomstländer. Den största dödsorsaken globalt är hjärtkärlsjukdomar, där vi redan känner till många av riskfaktorerna, men ännu inte helt förstår varför vissa drabbas och andra inte, trots att man blivit utsatt för samma riskfaktorer. Möjligen finns svaret i det komplicerade samspelet mellan smittsamma och icke-smittsamma sjukdomar? Till exempel vet vi nu att en del icke-smittsamma sjukdomar ökar risken för smittsamma sjukdomar (såsom i fallet diabetes och tuberkulos) och en del smittsamma sjukdomar kan leda till cancer (såsom infektion med humant papillomvirus och livmoderhalscancer). Mitt i korsningen av dessa två sjukdomsentiteter befinner sig HIV. HIV är en infektionssjukdom i grunden, men den livslånga behandlingen med krav på kontinuerlig uppföljning från sjukvården har mer gemensamt med behandlingen av icke-smittsamma sjukdomar som hjärtkärlsjukdomar. Personer som lever med HIV har också ökad risk för just hjärtkärlsjukdomar. Detta har föreslagits bero på biverkningar av HIV-mediciner, men sannolikt är det just att gå runt med den långvariga inflammation som HIV-infektionen ger som ökar risken mest. HIV har drabbat länder i Afrika söder om Sahara allra hårdast. Här lever idag också majoriteten av de människor som använder HIV-läkemedel. Tillgången till HIV-läkemedel har ökat dramatiskt på sistone och infrastruktur för att ta hand om HIV-patienter har i många länder byggts upp med goda resultat på överlevnaden. Detta leder till att fler människor lever allt längre med HIV. Dessa faktorer sammantaget gör att vi kan förvänta oss en stor ökning av hjärtkärlsjukdomar i länder i Afrika söder om Sahara, något som kommer att bli tungt för hälso- och sjukvården som ofta lider brist på resurser. I distriktet Rakai i Uganda har man följt en del av befolkningen sedan 1994. Distriktet har en av de högsta HIV-förekomsterna i Uganda, med ca 10% av befolkningen smittad. Rakai är unik som HIV-studie, då man HIV-testat befolkningen varje år. På så sätt kan man säga på ett år när, när en person blivit smittad. Liknande data finns inte att tillgå någon annanstans i världen. Man har där också löpande samlat in information om vilka läkemedel personer med HIV har tagit, blodprover för att mäta nivån på deras immunförsvar och mycket annat. Alla deltagare följs för närvarande upp en gång per år av tränad forskningspersonal, med intervjuer och blodprovstagning. Vi börjar med att kartlägga hur det ser ut idag med kända riskfaktorer för hjärtkärlsjukdomar, genom att utnyttja tidigare använda, och välkända riskformulär med frågor om bl.a. vikt, blodtryck, midjemått, rökning, ärftlighet för diabetes och hjärtkärlsjukdomar samt även ta prover för att mäta blodsocker och blodfetter. Vi kommer att använda oss av metoder som är vanliga i höginkomstländer, men vill nu också utvärdera hur de fungerar att använda i ett låginkomstland som Uganda. Dessutom planerar vi att utvärdera graden av åderförkalkning med en speciell blodtrycksmanschett (Arteriograph), som på ett enkelt sätt mäter den kärlstelhet som uppstår vid åderförkalkning. Denna information kommer att vara av stort värde för att kunna mäta risken och förekomsten av hjärtkärlsjukdomar hos personer med HIV framöver och kommer att kunna bidra till att skapa nya angreppssätt hur patienter med både HIV och kardiovaskulär sjukdom skall skötas i en sjukvård med knappa resurser.

The will be possible to realize by the collaboration between Linköping University (LiU), Sweden and The Islamia University of Bahawalpur (IUB), Pakistan. The team at LiU has experience and facilities for growth of the material. The team at IUB has experience and facilities for electrical characterization of material and devices. The long term aim is to realize solar driven devices based on cubic SiC. Such devices include solar cells, water splitting, and biofuel cells. These devices can substantially save energy. In particular, solar cells in developing countries with lot of sunlight can provide energy sources to people that now has poor availability of electricity. The SiC has advantages in concentrated solar cells since the SiC conducts heat very efficiently. The cubic SiC doped with boron fits almost perfect into a model of highly efficient solar cells by the intermediate bandgap concept. In view of the scenario of the world and of the present situation of energy in Pakistan, it is a matter of extreme importance to develop cheap sources of energy. Solar energy benefits also include that there is no need long transmission line because it is much localized energy source. Therefore it is very important for Pakistan to developed technology of solar energy on emergency basis. Electricity for lighting will create possibilities to study for schools and education. Projektet undersöker ett nytt solcellskoncept baserad på kiselkarbid. Forskargruppen vid Linköpings universitet har många års erfarenhet av att framställa material. Forskargruppen vid The Islamia University of Bahawalpur har en stark bakgrund av elektrisk karakterisering av material och komponenter. Dessa forskargrupper matchar varandra för att kunna utveckla solcellsmaterialet. Återkoppling från elektriska studer ger information till framställningen om hur materialet kan optimeras. Samtidigt får forskargruppen vid The Islamia University of Bahawalpur tillgång till material inom ett område som kan resultera i energieffektivisering i Pakistan. Solcellsmaterialet har en förväntad effektivitet upp till 48-60% enligt teoretiska beräkningar. Detta kan jämföras med kisel som har en effektivitet på 20% i produktion, och de bästa forskningsresultaten från tunna filmer med multimaterial på ca 45%. Solceller kan spara enorma mängder energi. Idag finns ett stort behov av nya innovationer som bidrar till klimatlösningar. Dessutom kan kubisk kiselkarbid klara varma miljöer. Temperaturerna i Pakistan kan uppgå till över 50 grader, och många solcellsmaterial har svårt att prestera när de blir varma.

The cubic SiC doped with boron fits almost perfect into a model of highly efficient solar cells by the intermediate bandgap concept. In view of the scenario of the world and of the present situation of energy in Pakistan, it is a matter of extreme importance to develop cheap sources of energy. Solar energy benefits also include that there is no need long transmission line because it is much localized energy source. Therefore it is very important for Pakistan to developed technology of solar energy on emergency basis. Electricity for lighting will create possibilities to study for schools and education. Projektet undersöker ett nytt solcellskoncept baserad på kiselkarbid. Forskargruppen vid Linköpings universitet har många års erfarenhet av att framställa material. Forskargruppen vid The Islamia University of Bahawalpur har en stark bakgrund av elektrisk karakterisering av material och komponenter. Dessa forskargrupper matchar varandra för att kunna utveckla solcellsmaterialet. Återkoppling från elektriska studer ger information till framställningen om hur materialet kan optimeras. Samtidigt får forskargruppen vid The Islamia University of Bahawalpur tillgång till material inom ett område som kan resultera i energieffektivisering i Pakistan. Solcellsmaterialet har en förväntad effektivitet upp till 48-60% enligt teoretiska beräkningar. Detta kan jämföras med kisel som har en effektivitet på 20% i produktion, och de bästa forskningsresultaten från tunna filmer med multimaterial på ca 45%. Solceller kan spara enorma mängder energi. Idag finns ett stort behov av nya innovationer som bidrar till klimatlösningar. Dessutom kan kubisk kiselkarbid klara varma miljöer. Temperaturerna i Pakistan kan uppgå till över 50 grader, och många solcellsmaterial har svårt att prestera när de blir varma.

This requires high resolution, perfect focus for each cell nucleus and robustness against staining variations. This is very hard and expensive to achieve with conventional optics. Recently (2013) a new way of creating images in a light microscope was invented, Fourier ptychographic microscopy, FPM. This technique holds promise to address all three of the crucial problems in chromatin distribution quantification. However, the technique needs improvements in terms of computational efficiency and it needs to be adapted and optimized for the needs of cancer detection. We plan to do that within this project. We have since 2008 had a collaboration between India and Uppsala University on developing a new cost effective system for cervical cancer screening. The FPM technique holds promise for increasing the performance of the developed system. We also propose to use the same technique for addressing two other common and increasing cancers: oral cancer and thyroid cancer. The Indian project partners have a strong background in cancer research, the Swedish team combines long-standing expertise in the field of digital cytometry with expertise in robust and precise image analysis. Vi har sedan 2008 samarbetat med Indien inom utveckling av metoder för tidig upptäckt av cervixcancer genom bildanalys. Det har nu lett till att man där står beredd gå vidare med att ta fram en andra generation av screeningsystem som kan testas i fältstudier av större omfattning. Vårt gemensamt utvecklade system har hittills utvärderats på mer än 1000 fall med ett resultat som överstiger kravspecifikationen. Förutom cervixcancer finns det flera andra cancerformer som ökar i omfattning i Indien och världen i övrigt. För flera av dessa skulle en noggrann analys av cellkärnornas kromatinstruktur sannolikt kunna lägga grund för känslig och tidig detektion av cancern, förhoppningsvis med större säkerhet och känslighet än vad som kan ske genom visuell bedömning. Vi vill inom detta projekt ta tillvara på vår kunskap och erfarenhet från cervixcancer och tillämpa våra metoder på andra cancerformer. Initialt så kommer vi att titta på cancer i munhålan och sköldkörtel-cancer. Ett praktiskt problem när man skall automatisera analys av cellprover är att man måste titta på väldigt många bildfält för att vara säker på att man inte missat något väsentligt. Ett annat problem är att man måste ha perfekt fokus för att kunna analysera kromatinstrukturen och det kräver fokusering för varje cellkärna individuellt. Ett tredje problem är att det lätt blir stora variationer i infärgningen av proverna när de görs rutinmässigt, inte minst när man försöker hålla nere kostnaderna. Detta gör sammantaget att det är svårt att skapa ett kostnadseffektivt, snabbt och robust screeningsystem med konventionell mikroskopteknik. Nu har en potentiell lösning dykt upp med Fourier ptychografisk mikroskopi, en helt ny teknik som ger hög upplösning med billig optik. Vi planerar att vidareutveckla och testa den tekniken; vi söker bl.a. VR medel för det. Tekniken har stor potential att lösa de svårigheter vi skisserat ovan. Fourier ptychografisk mikroskopi kan samtidigt avbilda stora provytor i flera fokalplan. Vi hoppas att tekniken skall möjliggöra en pålitligt diagnos från endast en eller ett par bilder. Utöver stora höguplösta bilder till låg kostnad så ger tekniken även fas-information. Vi tänker använda den informationen för att detektera täthetsvariationer som har diagnostisk betydelse. På så sätt gör vi systemet mindre beroende av infärgningen och man kan därför få en säkrare diagnos. Vi vill samarbeta med Regional Cancer Center i Kerala för att utvärdera tekniken för flera av de större cancerproblemen i Indien. Om framgångsrikt så skulle projektet kunna lägga grunden för ett helt nytt sätt att tidigt diagnostisera cancer, vilket är viktigt för hela världen men i hög grad så i Indien och andra fattiga länder.

Mastitis (inflammation of the udder gland) is a common, but complex problem in dairy cows and causes considerable losses. Therefore, reducing the burden of disease of mastitis asks for a systematic, science-based approach. The purpose of this 3 year project is to create a sustainable multidisciplinary collaboration between researchers from Bangladesh, France, the Netherlands and Sweden. With this team, we aim to develop an udder health control program (UHCP) that is tailored to the dairy situation in Bangladesh.

Any gaps in the available knowledge will be filled by collecting relevant field data. We will organize a scientific workshop to collect relevant information and a practical workshop to disseminate the UHCP within the Bangladesh veterinary community.

Den växande mjölksektorn i Bangladesh är mycket betydelsefull för landsbygdsutvecklingen. Mjölken är viktig för fattiga människors utkomst och näringsförsörjning. Juverinflammation (mastit) är en vanlig sjukdom hos mjölkkor i både fattiga och rika länder. Och det är en av de ekonomiskt viktigaste sjukdomarna för mjölkbranschen. Juverinflammation leder till minskad mjölkproduktion, försämrad mjölkkvalitet, djurlidande samt ökad antibiotikaanvändning. Den sistnämnda leder i sin tur till ökad utveckling och spridning av resistenta bakterier. Kors juverhälsa har studerats under lång tid. Den sammanlagda kunskapen har i många länder använts för att utveckla juverhälsoprogram för att förbättra juverhälsan. I utvecklingsländer finns det ofta inga sådana juverhälsoprogram. Det kan dessutom vara svårt att inrätta dylika eftersom rådgivningen bygger på studier från den mer utvecklade världen. Syftet med detta treåriga projekt är att skapa ett långsiktigt tvärvetenskapligt samarbete mellan forskare i Bangladesh, Frankrike, Nederländerna och Sverige. Projektgruppen består av experter inom besättningsrådgivning, epidemiologi, mikrobiologi samt även fältveterinärer. Tillsammans kommer vi att utveckla ett juverhälsoprogram som är skräddarsytt för mjölksektorn i Bangladesh. Först kommer vi att gå igenom vetenskaplig litteratur och ta hjälp av internationella juverhälsoexperter. Syftet är att se hur befintlig kunskap kan tillämpas i Bangladesh. Genom att göra det kommer vi också att upptäcka vad som fattas för att kunna införa ett juverhälsoprogram i Bangladesh. Eventuella kunskapsluckor kommer att fyllas genom en fältstudie i Bangladesh där vi samlar mjölkprover från kor och intervjuar mjölkbönder. De sammanlagda resultaten kommer att ligga till grund för ett juverhälsoprogram som kommer att spridas bland veterinärer och lantbrukare i Bangladesh. Vi kommer också att organisera två verkstäder: 1. En internationell vetenskaplig verkstad, tidigt i projektet, för att samla expertis inom ämnet mastitkontroll och diskutera hur befintlig kunskap bäst kan tillämpas i Bangladesh. 2. En verkstad mot slutet av projektet med syftet att kommunicera juverhälsoprogrammet till veterinärer i Bangladesh. Den småskaliga mjölkproduktionen är viktig för landsbygdens ekonomi, särskilt för fattiga och marginaliserade människor och då särskilt kvinnor. Ett juverhälsoprogram kommer sannolikt och förhoppningsvis att leda till en mer hållbar och lönsam mjölkproduktion i Bangladesh.

Many people are dependent on fish as their primary source of protein, highlighting the need to manage this resource correctly. Much is known about separate coastal habitats, however, little is known about how they are interconnected by migrating fish and dependent on each other. Understanding these links (connectivity) and when and where links are broken is crucial. This project aims to (1) study thresholds in connectivity in order to understand the consequences of fragmentation on fish supply in multiple habitats, and (2) include local ecological knowledge (LEK) to complement scientific knowledge and engage local fishers in management of marine resources. Landscape ecology, using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) combined with fish census, and semi-structured interviews with local fishers’ will be applied. Field trips and workshops involving both PhD/Master students and senior scientists will be conducted in East Africa (Tanzania/Mozambique) and Sweden once or twice a year to maintain collaboration and knowledge exchange between scientists from all regions. Furthermore, the project aims to build a scientific/ collaborative platform from which new grant proposals can be applied in order to secure long-term collaboration between involved applicants. I många tropiska områden bildar mangrove, sjögräsängar och korallrev en mosaik av habitat, ofta kallat ett tropiskt havslandskap. Vi har ganska goda kunskaper om vart och ett av dessa habitat men vi vet lite om hur dessa är länkade till varandra och hur havslandskapet fungerar som helhet. Vandrande fiskar utgör en av de viktigaste länkarna i havslandskapet. Många korallrevsfiskar växer t.ex. upp i mangrove eller sjögräsområden och flyttar sedan till korallreven när de blir större. Flertalet korallrevsfiskar simmar även mellan korallrev och sjögräs för att äta och bidrar därmed till att kontrollera populationerna av födodjur i sjögräs och utbytet av energi och närsalter mellan habitaten. Forskning runt Zanzibar i Tanzania har visat att hälften av alla korallrevsfiskarter utnyttjar mer än ett habitat och nästan en femtedel utnyttjar mangrove och sjögräs som uppväxtområden. Dessa resultat visar verkligen hur sammanlänkade habitaten kan vara i tropiska länder. Under de senaste decennierna har över 30 % av jordens mangrove-, sjögräs-, och korallområden minskat. Mängden fisk har också minskat avsevärt världen över. Då fisk utgör den främsta källan till protein för människor som bor längst kustområden i Afrika, har en minskning av fisk och deras uppväxtområden en förödande effekt. Målet med denna studie är därför att fylla informationsluckor i förståelsen för hur olika områden är länkade för att på så sätt bättre kunna förvalta ekosystemtjänster (t.ex. fiske) kopplade till de olika habitaten i havslandskapet. Vi vill med denna studie besvara frågor som; hur mycket kan ett habitat i ett område reduceras i utbredning (dvs. fragmenteras) innan dessa viktiga länkar bryts? Vilka avstånd är kritiska mellan olika habitat för att upprätthålla länkar? Finns det tröskelvärden då biodiversiteten och abundansen av fisk drastiskt minskar pga. brutna länkar? För att studera dessa frågor kommer vi att använda oss av lanskapsekologiska metoder utvecklade för terrestra miljöer. Denna metod har nyligen börjat användas i marina miljöer och har visat sig vara en lämplig metod att testa konnektiviet (länkar) i tropiska områden. Habitatkartor i kombination med insamlad fiskdata (abundans och diversitet) kommer att användas för att med hjälp av Geografiska informationssystem (GIS) kunna finna olika tröskelvärden då länkar bryts. Vi kommer även att intervjua fiskare om deras lokala ekologiska kunskaper (Local Ecological Knowledge, LEK) om uppväxt- och födoområden för viktiga fiskarter för att komplettera vetenskaplig information med lokalkännedom. Vidare hoppas vi på detta sätt kunna öka intresset och engagemanget hos lokala fiskare i kustförvaltningen, något som tidigare varit ett problem i många fattiga länder. För att utföra dessa studier har ett sammarbete påbörjats mellan Sverige, Tanzania och Mocambique. Vi har hunnit göra en del studier i Tanzania, men studier på länkar i Mocambiques havslandskap saknas. Kunskaperna från våra tidigare studier i Tanzania kan därför komma till användning i Mocambique genom detta sammarbete. Omvänt finns det även viktig kunskap och erfarenhet av tropiska system i Mocambique som i sin tur kan komma till användning i Tanzania genom sammarbetet. Tre forskare, en från varje land, kommer att leda arbetet och träffas under fältarbeten och workshops samt hjälpas åt att handleda och utbilda doktorander och master- studenter inom projektet. Två fältstudier kommer att utföras, en i Tanzania under 2016 där tröskelvärden för länkar inom havslandskapet ska undersökas och en i Mocambique under 2017 där interview-baserade studier på lokalkännedom om habitatlänkar ska undersökas. Två workshops kommer även äga rum, en i samband med fältresan i Mocambique och en i Sverige där berörda forskare kommer att träffas för att diskutera resultat, skriva artiklar och planera nya ansökningar för att försäkra ett långsiktigt sammarbete mellan forskarna inom detta projekt.

Vi kommer även att intervjua fiskare om deras lokala ekologiska kunskaper (Local Ecological Knowledge, LEK) om uppväxt- och födoområden för viktiga fiskarter för att komplettera vetenskaplig information med lokalkännedom. Vidare hoppas vi på detta sätt kunna öka intresset och engagemanget hos lokala fiskare i kustförvaltningen, något som tidigare varit ett problem i många fattiga länder. För att utföra dessa studier har ett sammarbete påbörjats mellan Sverige, Tanzania och Mocambique. Vi har hunnit göra en del studier i Tanzania, men studier på länkar i Mocambiques havslandskap saknas. Kunskaperna från våra tidigare studier i Tanzania kan därför komma till användning i Mocambique genom detta sammarbete. Omvänt finns det även viktig kunskap och erfarenhet av tropiska system i Mocambique som i sin tur kan komma till användning i Tanzania genom sammarbetet. Tre forskare, en från varje land, kommer att leda arbetet och träffas under fältarbeten och workshops samt hjälpas åt att handleda och utbilda doktorander och master- studenter inom projektet. Två fältstudier kommer att utföras, en i Tanzania under 2016 där tröskelvärden för länkar inom havslandskapet ska undersökas och en i Mocambique under 2017 där interview-baserade studier på lokalkännedom om habitatlänkar ska undersökas. Två workshops kommer även äga rum, en i samband med fältresan i Mocambique och en i Sverige där berörda forskare kommer att träffas för att diskutera resultat, skriva artiklar och planera nya ansökningar för att försäkra ett långsiktigt sammarbete mellan forskarna inom detta projekt.

Increasing industrialization and population growth has overburdened land, air and water pollution. Developing countries, including Pakistan, rarely treat all wastewater, resulting in an exponential increase in water borne diseases especially among infants.

Using selective sweep analysis, together with Bengali researchers, it assesses gene pathways affecting sexual selection traits. Focus is given to gene variability, type of selection present in the wild, and what regions are being subjected to selection in natural, indigenous populations. Gene banking to maintain variation for both RJF and indigenous chicken for research and breeding is built via cryopreservation of germplasm (sperm and gonad tissue).

Intention is to disclose mutations behind economically important traits in the poultry industry, causing i.e. increased susceptibility to stress or diseases promoting sound management and conservation of both domestic and wild poultry, without interfering with natural habitats or traditional husbandry. Kan mer kunskap om domesticeringen av vilda höns leda till bättre selektion av dagens kyckling? Kyckling är, bland livsmedelsproducerande husdjur, den som bidrar minst till klimatiska förändringar. Den konkurrerar inte med oss för det foder som konsumerar, till skillnad om odlad lax (som kräver nästan två ggr fisk-mjölspellet per producerad kg lax) eller grisarna. Samtidigt har den mest effektiva omvandling av foder till protein, i form av kött och ägg. Domesticeringen har varit central för uppkomsten av den moderna kyckling, som härstammar från den vilda Red Jungle fowl, som bla fortfarande finns i Bangladesh. Jämfört med denna anfader, kan dagens broilern växa mer inom 60 dagar och en modern höna lägga över 10 ggr mer ägg än dess vilda anfader. Detta är resultatet av den genetiska selektionen för egenskaper såsom högst tillväxt, bäst reproduktions förmåga, eller äggläggning. Trots detta vet vi fortfarande inte allt om dessa egenskapers genetiska bas och för vissa är detta okänd. Dessa förändringar i genetiken är delvis avsiktliga och delvis oavsiktliga, och många gånger yttrar sig önskvärda och icke önskvärda egenskaper samtidigt. Detta kan påverka välfärden hos domesticerade djur, eftersom korrelerade egenskaper ses hos kyckling, t ex äggläggande hönor med tidig benskörhet (osteoporos) eller fjäderhackning och andra oönskade beteenden. Behovet att separera dessa egenskapers orsaker från varandra är stort. Genom att dissekera den genetiska arkitekturen hos egenskaperna kommer det att bli möjligt att avgöra om de beror på enstaka gener som samtidigt påverkar många egenskaper (pleiotropi) eller om de beror på kopplade gener som ligger nära varandra i genomet. Detta kommer att ha stor betydelse för uthållig avel av djur och för framgångsrika djurskyddsprogram, inte minst genom användande av genomiska markörer för att få ökat informationsvärde i selektionen. Flera generationer av korsning mellan djungelhöns och värphöns är framtagen vid Linköpings Universitet för att finkartera gener ansvariga för fenotyper relaterade till domesticering. Genom att använda en kombination av expressionsanalys, helgenomsekvensering av anfäderna till korsningen och funktionella studier av kandidatgener har man en unik möjlighet att få nya insikter i domesticeringens genomik och att identifiera de faktiska förändringar som orsakar variationer mellan populationerna. Dock är dessa populationer av anfäder under studier endast kärnflock från Storbritannien som vidare följts i Sverige. Tillgång till anfäder (dvs Red Jungle fowl) i sina naturliga habitat kan bidra till bättre jämförelser med nutida, hög selekterade kyckling. Detta internationella forsknings samarbetsprojektet, organiserat mellan laboratorier i tre Universitet (Sylhet Agricultural University och Chittagong Veterinary and Animal Sciences University i Bangladesh och Linköpings universitet i Sverige) skall identifiera hur dessa genetiska förändringar affekterar/reglerar viktiga egenskaper i reproduktionsförmågan, sexselektion, tillväxt, benallokering, ägg produktion och beteende i vilda populationer av Red Jungle fowl jämfört med dagens produktions kyckling. Projektet fokuserar på den variabilitet som omger dessa gener, vilken selektion redan finns i den vilda populationen hos anfäder och vilka andra regioner är under selektionspress i dessa vilda populationer.

This affects fishing communities, leading to resource scarcities, deprivation of livelihoods and environmental degradation. As a solution to confront these crises, Viet Nam and Chile have embarked on introducing territorial use right for fisheries (TURF). TURF are collective action institutions with common management, harvest and income. We aim to compare TURF adoption in both countries, examining their pathways to re-construct towards a sustainable fisheries future. Despite the different material conditions and poverty rankings of Viet Nam and Chile, their SSF belong to coastal vulnerable communities. Both countries offer an array of transformational dimensions to analyze how global and regional forces interact regarding SSF. We will work with coastal communities entitled with TURF, aiming to co-develop action plans to improve the functioning of TURF governance and enhance their access rights and benefits toward a sustainable redistribution of resources. Strengthening TURF access rights will enhance coastal livelihoods and development, and support coastal conservation. Based on a transformative fishing historiography of our cases, we will co-produce, co-design and co-disseminate knowledge essential for critical and ongoing reflective learning. Det småskaliga fisket sysselsätter cirka 90% av fiskare och fiskeriarbetare, varav 50% är kvinnor. Trots att det småskaliga fisket bidrar med två tredjedelar av världens fångster för direkt mänsklig konsumtion har det blivit alltmer marginaliserat och fördrivna av det storskaliga fisket; – den så kallade "globala havshuggsexan". Detta påverkar fiskesamhällen och leder till resursknapphet, miljöförstöring och förlust av försörjningsmöjligheter Som en lösning för att konfrontera dessa kriser, har Viet Nam och Chile infört territoriella fiskebruksrättigheter (TURF). Dessa erfarenheter uppmärksammas världen över, och även Sydafrika har börjar införa TURF, och tittar uppmärksamt på de chilenska TURF exemplen. TURF är allmänningsinstitutioner där fiskare gemensamt delar administration, fångst och inkomst, i stället för att konkurrera med varandra. Genom denna studie vill vi jämföra, genomförandet, utvecklingen och framtida möjligheter av TURF i Chile och Viet Nam. Vi strävar efter att undersöka dessa länders ansträngningar för att skapa innovativa banor som leder till en hållbar fiskeframtid. Trots att Viet Nam och Chile har olika samhällsutvecklingar och upptar olika positioner i världsrankingen i fattigdom, präglas deras småskaliga fiske ofta av fattigdom och utsatthet. Genom implementeringen av TURF visar både Viet Nam och Chile nya transformativa dimensioner som kan tjäna till att belysa hur globala och regionala krafter samverkar beträffande det småskaliga fisket. Vårt mål är att arbeta nära kustsamhällen som har varit berättigade med TURF, i syfte till att gemensamt utveckla handlingsplaner för att förbättra TURF funktioner och styrning samt förbättra små-skalliga fiskares rättigheter och förmåner mot en hållbar omfördelning av fiske resurser. Genom att stärkta det småskaliga fiskets tillträde till kustresurser hoppas vi kunna förbättra små kustsamhällens försörjningsmöjligheter, nyttjanderätt, och bidra till deras fortsatta utveckling. Förbättrade försörjningsmöjligheter och utveckling skulle innebära ökad självtillit och självstyre i dessa samhällen, och genom denna styrkande process stödja bevarandet av kustens resurser. Baserat på en analys av historien om fiskekrisen, misslyckade styrelseformer och framgångar i båda länderna, strävar vill efter ett kritisk och reflekterande lärande process för att främja sam-produktion, sam-design och sam-spridning av kunskap. Vårt projekt kombinerar två teoretiska ansatser: politisk ekologi - som behandlar asymmetriska maktrelationer - med EO Wrights förvandlingsteori med sin förmåga att sam-skapa alternativa scenarier och ge kursen till handling. För att nå dessa mål, använder vi deltagande metodologi, vilket fördjupar vår forsknings demokratiska dimensioner med fiskesamhällen och andra relevanta samhällsaktörer. Med hjälp av en rad kvalitativa datainsamlingsverktyg kommer vi, forskare och fiskare att sam-identifiera, sam-analysera, sam-utvärdera och anta nya banor till ett hållbart fiske i den globala södern genom att ha Viet Nam och Chile som fallstudier.

This affects fishing communities, leading to resource scarcities, deprivation of livelihoods and environmental degradation. As a solution to confront these crises, Viet Nam and Chile have embarked on introducing territorial use right for fisheries (TURF). TURF are collective action institutions with common management, harvest and income. We aim to compare TURF adoption in both countries, examining their pathways to re-construct towards a sustainable fisheries future. Despite the different material conditions and poverty rankings of Viet Nam and Chile, their SSF belong to coastal vulnerable communities. Both countries offer an array of transformational dimensions to analyze how global and regional forces interact regarding SSF. We will work with coastal communities entitled with TURF, aiming to co-develop action plans to improve the functioning of TURF governance and enhance their access rights and benefits toward a sustainable redistribution of resources. Strengthening TURF access rights will enhance coastal livelihoods and development, and support coastal conservation. Based on a transformative fishing historiography of our cases, we will co-produce, co-design and co-disseminate knowledge essential for critical and ongoing reflective learning. Det småskaliga fisket sysselsätter cirka 90% av fiskare och fiskeriarbetare, varav 50% är kvinnor. Trots att det småskaliga fisket bidrar med två tredjedelar av världens fångster för direkt mänsklig konsumtion har det blivit alltmer marginaliserat och fördrivna av det storskaliga fisket; – den så kallade "globala havshuggsexan". Detta påverkar fiskesamhällen och leder till resursknapphet, miljöförstöring och förlust av försörjningsmöjligheter Som en lösning för att konfrontera dessa kriser, har Viet Nam och Chile infört territoriella fiskebruksrättigheter (TURF). Dessa erfarenheter uppmärksammas världen över, och även Sydafrika har börjar införa TURF, och tittar uppmärksamt på de chilenska TURF exemplen.

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.

Vi önskar använda de nya katalysatorerna till att infoga syreatomer i vissa organiska föreningar som är vanligt förekommande föroreningar i vatten. Genom denna typ av oxidationsreaktion, kan de förorenande ämnena göras mindre giftiga, och de produkter som skapas kan vanligtvis brytas ned lättre än de ursprungliga föreningarna.

The aim of this collaborative research project is to examine the role of antigen diversity on the antibody response and acquired immunity against clinical episodes of malaria; with the overall purpose of identifying candidate antigens to be included in a multi-component malaria vaccine. The project will describe parasite diversity in relation to antibody responses and protective immunity in individuals with different degree of exposure within defined geographical regions in Ghana and Kenya, as well as in travellers experiencing first time infections. We will focus on a subset of antigens (n=10) that have been shown to be potential targets of protective immunity and include both conserved and polymorphic proteins. We will sequence the parasites collected from the community to define precisely the diversity at the selected loci, express these antigens and then analyse the antibody responses to conserved and diverse antigens. We will specifically investigate combinations of antigens and variants of antigens to which antibodies confer protection. The project will use samples that are and have been collected within longitudinal well-established cohorts in Ghana and Kenya, as well as Swedish travelers. The proposed collaboration includes workshops and involves several PhD students including a joint PhD supervision between Ghana, Kenya and Sweden, and will be mutually beneficially for the research development of all partners. Malaria är ett av de stora globala hälsoproblemen. Detta projekt ämnar bidra till utvecklingen av ett vaccin mot malaria. Under de senaste åren har stora insatser gjorts för att bekämpa malaria. Omfattande utdelning av myggnät och mer effektiva läkemedel har minskat utbredning av infektionen i många länder. Trots detta uppskattar Världshälsoorganisation (WHO) att malaria orsakade 200 miljoner sjukdomsfall och 600 000 dödsfall endast under 2013. Ytterligare bekämpningsmetoder behövs för att minska sjukdomsbördan och ett effektivt vaccin mot malaria vore oerhört värdefullt verktyg i denna kamp. Utveckling av ett vaccin mot malaria har visat sig vara komplicerad. Malariaparasiten har många olika antigen som uttrycks under olika stadier i livscykeln och många antigen är mycket variabla, och det finns många stammar av parasiten. Nyligen har ett första vaccin prövats i så kallad fas 3 studie och visade ca 30-50% skyddseffekt hos barn. Detta vaccin och de flesta andra vaccinkandidater består endast av en variant av ett malaria antigen. Epidemiologisk forskning visar att individer som bor i malariaområden är mer skyddade om de har antikroppar mot flera olika antigen och andra studier visar att förekomsten av många stammar påverkar skyddet mot malaria. Ett vaccin som innehåller flera antigen bedöms därför kunna ge ett bättre skydd. Frågan är om det behövs antikroppar mot flera olika antigen eller flera varianter av de mest variabla antigenen. I detta projekt önskar vi undersöka betydelsen av genetiska variationen inom tio antigen som nyligen visat sig vara de mest intressanta för antikroppsskydd mot malaria. Vi ämnar undersöka hur den antigena mångfalden inom dessa antigen är inom två olika geografiska områden med olika transmission i Ghana (hög transmission) och Kenya (låg-medel transmission). Genom att sekvensera och uttrycka antigen från respektive geografiskt område kan vi sedan undersöka förekomsten av antikroppar mot dessa antigen och om olika typer av antikroppssvar är kopplat till skydd mot att insjukna i malaria. Vi planerar att studera antikroppssvar under första infektionerna hos barn i Ghana som följs under två år efter födelsen och jämföra dessa immunsvar vid förstagångsinfektioner hos svenska resenärer som behandlats för malaria i Sverige. Vi planerar även på sikt att utröna betydelsen av asymptomatiskt bärarskap av parasiter hos befolkningen i malaria område genom att studera hur antikroppssvar påvekas i en behandlingsstudie.

Vi planerar att studera antikroppssvar under första infektionerna hos barn i Ghana som följs under två år efter födelsen och jämföra dessa immunsvar vid förstagångsinfektioner hos svenska resenärer som behandlats för malaria i Sverige. Vi planerar även på sikt att utröna betydelsen av asymptomatiskt bärarskap av parasiter hos befolkningen i malaria område genom att studera hur antikroppssvar påvekas i en behandlingsstudie. Projektet innefattar nya samarbeten med forskare i Ghana samt fortsatt samarbete i Kenya. Flera doktorander kommer att vara delaktiga i projektet och en ghanansk student planeras registreras vid Karolinska Institutet med gemensam handledning av samtliga samarbetspartners och göra del av projektet i Kenya samt Sverige. Vi planera genomföra årliga workshops och seminarier med fördjupning inom projektets olika ämnesområden (antigen, antikroppars, immunitet). I samband med dessa möten kommer projektets olika studier att planeras i detalj och på sikt sammanställning av data till vetenskapliga publikationer. Projektet förväntas bidra till utvecklingen av ett multi-komponentvaccin mot malaria och även kommer att bidra till vetenskaplig utveckling inom forskningsfältet samt de respektive medverkande parter.

This 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.

Varför medborgarna tycker det är meningsfullt att betala skatt har dock fått ytterst lite uppmärksamhet, än mindre hur den vardagliga praktiken av att betala skatt ser ut i utvecklingsländer. För att förstå skatteviljan behöver vi förstå skattepraktiken: hur ser transaktionen ut; när sker den; var sker den; hur sker den; vem är inblandad? Skatteviljan är dock ett stort problem i utvecklingsländer, och särskilt i Afrika söder om Sahara. Samtidigt som dessa länder behöver minska sitt beroende av bistånd behöver de också öka statens intäkter för att kunna hantera framtidens utmaningar såsom klimatförändringar, fattigdom, bristande utbildning och ställa om till en hållbar utveckling. Skatter behövs för att bygga starka stater som kan förse sina medborgare med den hjälp och välfärd de behöver. Dock är skatteforskning inte på dagordningen när statsbyggnad i Afrika eller den afrikanska medborgaren studeras. Att rösta och att betala skatt är självklara medborgarhandlingar, men medborgaren som väljare har fått mer uppmärksamhet än medborgaren som skattebetalare. Forskning om skatter och beskattning i Afrika söder om Sahara har inte undersökt hur vanliga medborgare kommer i kontakt med skatt, eller hur man skapar mening kring skattebetalning trots att det är centralt för skatteviljan. Detta projekt utvecklar nuvarande förklaringar genom att fokusera på den sociala praktiken av skatt: i vilka sammanhang är skatt en del av vardagen, vilka lokala aktörer är inblandade och vilka symboliska filter aktiveras? Hur förstås skatteupplevelsen och vad motiverar medborgaren att betala skatt? Forskningen har tidigare utgått från västerländska förklaringsmodeller och idéer om staten. Vad som behövs är istället en teori som utgår från medborgarnas egna upplevelser och därmed byggs nerifrån och upp, med ett fokus på att förstå skatteefterlevnad snarare än skatteflykt. Genom en jämförande mikro-studie av medborgarnas skatteupplevelser i tre länder (Lesotho, Tanzania och Zambia) bidrar detta projekt med en ökad förståelse för hur dagens skattepraktik ser ut i dessa tre länder, men också i Afrika söder om Sahara mer generellt, då dessa länder representerar en bredd av skattesystem och olika typer av ekonomier. Skatteviljan och skatteuttaget varierar nämligen mellan dessa länder. För att genomföra en systematisk och jämförande studie av skattepraktiken i dessa länder, föreslår vi ett fokus på två typer av skatter (inkomstskatt och moms), vissa socioekonomiska grupper samt specifika platser. Datainsamlingen består av tre faser: 1) intervjuer med personal på de olika ländernas skatteverk; 2) fokusgruppsintervjuer kring skattepraktiken (var, när, hur, varför och med vem), samt 3) deltagande observationer på platser där skatt betalas eller är en del av vardagen. På så vis kommer projektet ge ett inifrånperspektiv på vad det innebär att vara skattebetalare i dessa länder. Datainsamlingen sker på samma sätt i alla tre länder. Med hjälp av intervjuer med skatteverken identifieras typiska grupper av skattebetalare av vissa skatter (moms och inkomstskatt). Troliga grupper är självförsörjande jordbrukare, lärare, tjänstemän samt personer som jobbar inom detaljhandeln, gruvindustrin och fabriker. Därefter genomförs fokusgrupper med just dessa yrkesgrupper. Fokusgruppsintervjuerna identifierar sedan vilka platser som är särskilt relevanta för skattepraktiken (som t.ex. den lokala skattemyndigheten, skatteindrivarens kontor och bankkontor i fråga om inkomstskatt och lokala marknadsplatser och butiker när det gäller moms) för att därefter genomföra observationer på dessa platser.

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. Tuberkulos (TBC) är en sjukdom som oftast drabbar lungorna och orsakas av tuberkelbakterien. Årligen insjuknar omkring 9 miljoner och nära 1.5 miljoner dör i sjukdomen. WHO uppskattar att åtminstone 3 miljoner människor med TBC förblir odiagnostiserade vilket är en reservoar för fortsatt smittspridning. I väntan på ekonomisk utveckling i alla delar av världen och att fattiga länder skall utrustas med modern tuberkulosdiagnostik har vi utvecklat en snabb och tillförlitlig klinisk graderings-skala - TBscore. TBscore är utvecklad för högendemiska länder och kan öka andelen patienter som diagnosticeras med TBC. TBscore är ett kliniskt index som snabbt kan erhållas i fält utan några laboratorieprover eller dyr utrustning. Vi har i ett flertal tidigare studier i Guinea Bissau och Etiopien inom ett tidigare EU-stött nätverksprojekt visat att en hög TBscore korrelerar till ökad mortalitet och risk för aktiv TBC. Vi föreslår nu en jämförande studie vid vårdcentraler i Etiopien och Guinea Bissau under 2017-19 där TBscore används för att öka andelen patienter som diagnosticeras för TBC jämfört med den vanliga strategin utan TBscore. Vi kommer att jämföra andelen som diagnosticeras med TBC mellan grupperna samt mortalitet vid 6 månader. TBscore har potentialen att ge en strukturerad behandlingsuppföljning samt en bättre selektion av patienter som prioriteras för TBC-diagnostik vilket är av stor vikt för att öka andelen som diagnosticeras med TBC i högendemiska länder. En central del av projektet som alla ingående samarbetsländer (Etiopien, Sverige, Danmark och Guinea Bissau) kommer att ha stor nytta av är uppbyggnaden och bibehållandet av kapacitet för att driva ett större kliniskt interventionsprojekt. Samarbetet kommer också att innebära gemensamma post docs och doktorander samt ett utbyte vad gäller träning i TBC-diagnostik (Etiopien), klinisk diagnotik (Etiopien), statistik (Guinea Bissau) och GCP-träning (Sverige). Nya strategier för upptäckt av TBC i högendemiska områden är av stor vikt för att nå WHOs mål att reducera aktiv TBC i världen.

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. Tuberkulos (TBC) är en sjukdom som oftast drabbar lungorna och orsakas av tuberkelbakterien. Årligen insjuknar omkring 9 miljoner och nära 1.5 miljoner dör i sjukdomen. WHO uppskattar att åtminstone 3 miljoner människor med TBC förblir odiagnostiserade vilket är en reservoar för fortsatt smittspridning. I väntan på ekonomisk utveckling i alla delar av världen och att fattiga länder skall utrustas med modern tuberkulosdiagnostik har vi utvecklat en snabb och tillförlitlig klinisk graderings-skala - TBscore. TBscore är utvecklad för högendemiska länder och kan öka andelen patienter som diagnosticeras med TBC. TBscore är ett kliniskt index som snabbt kan erhållas i fält utan några laboratorieprover eller dyr utrustning. Vi har i ett flertal tidigare studier i Guinea Bissau och Etiopien inom ett tidigare EU-stött nätverksprojekt visat att en hög TBscore korrelerar till ökad mortalitet och risk för aktiv TBC. Vi föreslår nu en jämförande studie vid vårdcentraler i Etiopien och Guinea Bissau under 2017-19 där TBscore används för att öka andelen patienter som diagnosticeras för TBC jämfört med den vanliga strategin utan TBscore. Vi kommer att jämföra andelen som diagnosticeras med TBC mellan grupperna samt mortalitet vid 6 månader. TBscore har potentialen att ge en strukturerad behandlingsuppföljning samt en bättre selektion av patienter som prioriteras för TBC-diagnostik vilket är av stor vikt för att öka andelen som diagnosticeras med TBC i högendemiska länder. En central del av projektet som alla ingående samarbetsländer (Etiopien, Sverige, Danmark och Guinea Bissau) kommer att ha stor nytta av är uppbyggnaden och bibehållandet av kapacitet för att driva ett större kliniskt interventionsprojekt. Samarbetet kommer också att innebära gemensamma post docs och doktorander samt ett utbyte vad gäller träning i TBC-diagnostik (Etiopien), klinisk diagnotik (Etiopien), statistik (Guinea Bissau) och GCP-träning (Sverige). Nya strategier för upptäckt av TBC i högendemiska områden är av stor vikt för att nå WHOs mål att reducera aktiv TBC i världen.

This dramatic picture calls for urgent attention. This research program aims to implement and study three innovative projects to improve child and maternal health outcomes in the Sub-Saharan Africa - the region where change is most desperately needed. The first part of this research program, experiments and evaluates two complementary approaches to the government system to ensure that basic health care is delivered to poor families: a Community Health Worker project in Uganda with a business incentive tied to it as well as a Voluntary Health Worker project in Nigeria focused on pregnant women. The second part of this program, goes beyond the traditional approaches and focus on women's participation in household production and decision-making, and increase exposure to important nutrition and hygiene interventions to study whether gender inequities is a barrier to improving children's health and malnutrition. All projects will be evaluated during the period 2017-2020 using a randomized controlled trial methodology and are expected to contribute to better understand how effective policies can be used to change the negative trend of children's health in the poorer part of the world.

Den andra delen av detta forskningsprojekt grundar sig i existerande forskning om jämställdhet inom hushållen i utvecklingsländer och som visar att ökade resurser i händerna på kvinnor mer sannolikt används för att investera i nästa generation - barns hälsa, nutrition, och utbildning - jämfört med om resurserna hamnar i händerna på männen. Mot denna bakgrund implementerar idag frivilligorganisationer och regeringar i utvecklingsländer biståndsprogram som är fokuserade på att öka kvinnors rättighet och bestämmanderätt.

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. Trots stora framsteg de senaste 10-15 åren dör fortfarande mer än 5 miljoner barn om året under graviditet och den första månaden efter förlossning. Den största delen av dessa dödsfall går att undvika med enkla och kostnadseffektiva åtgärder. Världssamfundet har kommit överens om att öka överlevnaden under denna period och initiativet "Every Newborn Action Plan" har som mål att minska dödligheten med hälften till år 2035. För att detta ska ske behövs nya innovativa lösningar, inte bara i form av nya metoder eller mediciner utan framför allt genom nya sätt att omvandla den kunskap som redan finns till praxis. Detta forskningsfält, som får allt mer uppmärksamhet, implementeringsforskningen, syftar till att förstå hur praxis ändras och vilka metoder som fungerar i olika miljöer för att uppnå förändring. Ett område där vi vet vad som behöver göras men där kunskapen inte alltid omsätts till praxis är återupplivningen av nyfödda. Att födas är en stor fysiologisk omställning och runt 10% av alla nyfödda behöver hjälp för att komma igång med andningen och ta sitt första andetag. De allra flest behöver bara lätt stimulans för att komma igång med andningen, men runt 1% av alla nyfödda behöver ventileras, det som populärt kallas mun-mot-mun, även om det vanligen sker med en mask och ventileringsblåsa. Det räcker oftast med ett eller ett par andetag för att barnet ska komma igång med egen andning. Trots denna enkla åtgärd dör närmare en miljon barn om året för att de inte får hjälp att ta sitt första andetag, ett allvarligt exempel på bristande användning av kunskap. För att adressera problemet med bristande ventilering av nyfödda har den amerikanska pediatriska föreningen utvecklat förenklade kliniska riktlinjer och ett utbildningspaket för att få alla barn som inte andas spontant vid födseln att ventileras inom en minut, den s.k. Golden Minute. Detta koncept, som kallas Helping Babies Breathe (HBB), har utvärderats i olika miljöer och man ha kunnat visa på minskad barnadödlighet i samband med förlossning på runt 50% efter införandet av HBB. Ett problem vid dessa studier har dock varit att praxis snabbt återgår till hur det var före införandet och att vårdpersonalen inte gör de nya riktlinjerna till rutin. Vi utvecklade därför en strategi för att stärka införandet och uppmuntra vårdpersonalen att fortsätta använda det de lärt sig. Utbildningspaketet från HBB kompletterades med dagliga färdighetsövningar, avstämningsmöten och feedback på handläggning. Denna kvalitetsstärkande strategi (Quality Improvement Cycle) testades på ett regionsjukhus i Kathmandu, Nepal och vi fann inte bara en minskad dödlighet i samma nivå som tidigare studier (runt 50%), men även att vårdpersonalen fortsatte med de nya rutinerna vid uppföljning efter sex månader. Att testa ett koncept i en specifik miljö är en sak, men att få spridning och därmed lyckas införa ny a rutiner i ett helt hälsosystem kan vara en annan. Vi vill därför nu försöka att skala upp konceptet med HBB-QIC till distriktsnivå i Nepal och föreslår därför en stor studie på nio distriktssjukhus runt om i landet. Studien kommer att genomföras i samarbete med Patan Academy of Health Sciences och UNICEF Nepal. I Nepal föder fortfarande en stor andel av kvinnorna hemma, men intensiva kampanjer har minskat andelen hemförlossningar och allt fler barn föds på sjukhus. Det blir då än viktigare att kunna erbjuda vård med god kvalitet. Införandet av HBB-QIC kan vara en väg att åstadkomma detta. Den föreslagna studien kommer att använda s.k. stepped wedge randomisering, vilket innebär att alla sjukhus kommer att få del av den nya utbildningen eftersom den har bevisad effekt. Den primära forskningsfrågan är om det är möjligt att få lika bra effekt på barnaöverlevnaden när interventionen görs i stor skala, och vilka specifika svårigheter ett storskaligt införandet av dessa nya rutiner kan föra med sig.

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. Populärvetenskaplig beskrivning I december 2013 insjuknade och avled en ung pojke i byn Guéckédou i södra Guinea i Västafrika. Detta kom att bli inledningen på den största ebolaepidemin hittills i modern historia, ett utbrott som skulle komma bli större än alla tidigare ebolautbrott sammantaget och därmed också en av de största folkhälsoutmaningarna i världen sedan Andra Världskriget. Till skillnad från tidigare ebolautbrott - som ganska snabbt kom under kontroll - pågick detta utbrott längre och fick större geografisk spridning än något tidigare utbrott. Nyligen dokumenterade smittfall visar att epidemin fortfarande skördar liv. Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) rapporterade i mars 2016 att epidemin totalt orsakat 28,646 smittofall varav 11,323 lett till döden. Epidemin drabbade främst Guinea, Liberia och Sierra Leone, men fall har också dokumenterats i ytterligare sju länder (Italien, Mali, Nigeria, Senegal, Spanien, England och USA). Liksom vid tidigare ebolautbrott har sjukdomen lokalt tolkats som ett resultat av häxeri, och häxerianklagelser har även drabbat insjuknade individer. Dessa föreställningar har dramatiskt försvårat hälsovårdsinsatserna. Hälsoarbetare har haft stora problem att få lokalbefolkningen att förstå de biomedicinska orsakerna till smittan och dess spridning och därigenom ge den nödvändiga vården. Detta motstånd var särskilt påtagligt i Guinea och har varit en viktig orsak till att det senaste ebolautbrottet fick så allvarliga proportioner. Dessutom dokumenterades en ny företeelse under det senaste utbrottet: hälsoarbetare, främst utländsk personal i internationella insatser, blev själva föremål för häxerianklagelser och beskylldes i flera byar för att medvetet sprida smittan. Detta försvårade hälsoarbetet och försatte personalen i livsfara när de i vissa fall utsattes för attacker från lokalbefolkningen. Mot bakgrund av denna problematik syftar forskningsprojektet till att undersöka drivkrafterna bakom detta motstånd från lokala befolkningen mot insatserna för att stävja epidemin.

Projektet planeras pågå i tre år (2017-2019) och innefatta litteraturstudier och antropologiskt fältarbete, främst i Nzérékoréregionen i södra Guinea där det första ebolafallet konstaterades i 2013.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2016-05625_1-1 Sweden The recent Ebola epidemic in West 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. Populärvetenskaplig beskrivning I december 2013 insjuknade och avled en ung pojke i byn Guéckédou i södra Guinea i Västafrika. Detta kom att bli inledningen på den största ebolaepidemin hittills i modern historia, ett utbrott som skulle komma bli större än alla tidigare ebolautbrott sammantaget och därmed också en av de största folkhälsoutmaningarna i världen sedan Andra Världskriget. Till skillnad från tidigare ebolautbrott - som ganska snabbt kom under kontroll - pågick detta utbrott längre och fick större geografisk spridning än något tidigare utbrott. Nyligen dokumenterade smittfall visar att epidemin fortfarande skördar liv. Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) rapporterade i mars 2016 att epidemin totalt orsakat 28,646 smittofall varav 11,323 lett till döden. Epidemin drabbade främst Guinea, Liberia och Sierra Leone, men fall har också dokumenterats i ytterligare sju länder (Italien, Mali, Nigeria, Senegal, Spanien, England och USA). Liksom vid tidigare ebolautbrott har sjukdomen lokalt tolkats som ett resultat av häxeri, och häxerianklagelser har även drabbat insjuknade individer. Dessa föreställningar har dramatiskt försvårat hälsovårdsinsatserna. Hälsoarbetare har haft stora problem att få lokalbefolkningen att förstå de biomedicinska orsakerna till smittan och dess spridning och därigenom ge den nödvändiga vården. Detta motstånd var särskilt påtagligt i Guinea och har varit en viktig orsak till att det senaste ebolautbrottet fick så allvarliga proportioner. Dessutom dokumenterades en ny företeelse under det senaste utbrottet: hälsoarbetare, främst utländsk personal i internationella insatser, blev själva föremål för häxerianklagelser och beskylldes i flera byar för att medvetet sprida smittan. Detta försvårade hälsoarbetet och försatte personalen i livsfara när de i vissa fall utsattes för attacker från lokalbefolkningen. Mot bakgrund av denna problematik syftar forskningsprojektet till att undersöka drivkrafterna bakom detta motstånd från lokala befolkningen mot insatserna för att stävja epidemin.

Malaria puts a heavy burden on the economic progress of the afflicted countries, especially in the low-income strata of those societies. Despite the severity of the problem, global efforts to combat malaria remain insufficient. No efficient malaria vaccine has been developed, and resistance to existing antimalarial drugs is emerging. This project aims at identifying novel promising lead compounds to combat resistant Plasmodium strains. Frontline techniques in yeast genomics will be used to identify the targets of molecules with antiplasmodial activity, and to improve the selectivity for the parasite ortholog of the target over the human counterpart. We have a special view to use the yeast system to access protein targets expressed in parasite life cycle stages that are difficult to access by other methods.

We want to further develop a long-lasting international collaboration in this field of great global importance. Malaria är ett svårt hot mot global hälsa. En halv miljon människor dör årligen i malaria, och denna sjukdom drabbar framför allt de fattigaste människorna i de fattigaste länderna. Små barn är särskilt utsatta och får ofta allvarligare sjukdomsförlopp än vuxna. Den negativa affekten av malaria på ett lands ekonomiska utveckling är betydande då sjukdomen innebär långa och upprepade sjukdomsperioder. För barn är detta allvarligt då det försvårar deras skolgång och på så sätt motverkar ekonomisk tillväxt genom höjd utbildningsnivå. Gravida kvinnor med malariainfektion löper ökad risk för blodbrist, för tidig födsel och missfall. Växthuseffekten kan påverka utbredningsområdet för malaria. Både malariaparasiten (Plasmodium) och myggan som sprider den (Anopheles) har strikta krav på mikroklimat för att kunna utvecklas. Med ökande temperaturer och ändrade nederbördsförhållanden kan malaria komma att uppträda i nya områden. Där träffar den på människor som tidigare inte varit exponerade för malaria, och därför inte har något immunförsvar mot den. Inget effektivt malariavaccin existerar, trots mångåriga ansträngningar. Mot de mest verksamma behandlingarna mot malaria; klorokin, artemisinin och pyrimetamin, har resistens hos malariaparasiten dykt upp i flera regioner i världen. Det finns alltså ett stort behov av nya antimalariamediciner. Vårt projekt, som är ett samarbete med brasilianska och kambodjanska forskare, syftar till att hitta nya substanser för vidare utveckling mot antimalariapreparat. Vi har en pågående karakterisering av molekyler med potentiell aktivitet mot malaria, både syntetiska och isolerade från växter och mikroorganismer i Brasilien. Vi vill utvärdera dem mot resistenta stammar av Plasmodium för att se om de kan ge god effektivitet även där. I Kambodja har man stora problem med behandlingsresistens hos malariaparasiterna, och vi kommer särskilt att testa mot sådana parasitstammar. För sådana substanser, där man iakttar en effektivitet mot parasiten men inte känner till mekanismen, vill vi använda en genetisk screeningmetod i jäst, kallad kemogenomik. På så sätt kan vi identifiera målproteinet som substansen slår mot. Vi vill också tillverka nya syntetiska startsubstanser riktade mot kända målproteiner i denna process. Ett av hindren för att ta fram effektiva mediciner mot malaria är att det bara går att växa vissa livscykelstadier av Plasmodium i laboratoriet. De andra stadierna är därför mycket svårare att studera. Vi vill använda vårt testsystem för att uttrycka Plasmodium-proteiner i jäst och på så sätt också komma åt proteiner som uttrycks under de livscykelstadier som annars är besvärliga att studera - de kan bli nya och lovande målmolekyler. Vi kommer att använda oss av en speciellt framtagen teknik för att direkt mäta effektiviteten hos de substanser vi testar mot ett visst Plasmodium-protein jämfört med effektiviteten mot motsvarande protein hos människa. Genom denna jämförelse kan vi snabbt sålla fram de substanser som selektivt slår mot Plasmodium-parasiten, men inte ger biverkningar i människans celler.

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 &quot;hottest biodiversity hotspots&quot; 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. I detta projekt kommer vi att bedöma och värdera pollinering av bin som en ekosystemtjänst och för förbättring av jordbrukarnas inkomster i västra Ghats landskapet, i Indien. Habitat fragmentering har lett till en minskning av pollinerande insekter över hela världen. Men olika pollinatörer visar skillnader i tålighet eller sårbarhet för miljöförändringar. Västra Ghats-området är på UNESCOs världsarvslista och erkänd som en av de &quot;hetaste hotspots för biologisk mångfald&quot; i världen, med, till exempel, över 7402 arter av blommande växter (inbegripet 1438 odlade arter), och över 6000 arter av insekter (inbegripet över 100 bi-arter). Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka hur olika inhemska bi-arter, inklusive honungsbin (Apis sp.), snickar-bin (Xylocopa sp.) och gaddlösa bin (Trigona sp.) navigerar och utnyttjar ojämna, modifierade landskap, och att använda denna kunskap för att identifiera bi-arter som klarar en sådan förändring av deras livsmiljö. Denna baskunskap ä ovärderlig för att förstå pollineringsnätverk och sambandet mellan landskapsförändringar och olika pollinatörers prestanda. Därefter kommer vi att kvantifiera det ekonomiska värdet av pollineringstjänster som tillhandahålls av dessa bin för små och marginella jordbrukare och utveckla strategier för att bevara bin och därmed utöka jordbruksinkomster.

Mål 2: Att undersöka effektiviteten hos de inhemska bi-arter som pollinatörer i jordbrukslandskapet och effekterna av experimentell förstärkning med inhemska bikupor på skördar i små jordbruksföretag i västra Ghats landskapet. Mål 3: Att jämföra födosök- och pollineringsprestanda mellan västra honungsbiet Apis mellifera och systerarten, det asiatiska honungsbiet Apis cerana, för viktiga vilda och odlade växtarter. Detta projekt är det första försöket att förstå hur olika modifierade landskap påverkar bins navigering och födosök i en viktig, tätbefolkat och ekologiskt känsligt indiskt landskap som är en hotspot av biologisk mångfald.

Establishment and quality assured diagnostics of for example Zika virus in endemic regions is of particularly high priority, which WHO has pointed out several times. A second objective is to identify host genetic factors associated with clinical severity to these pathogens. Our hypothesis is that the large clinical variation of symptoms, from asymptomatic to severe illness following Zika and Chikungunya virus infections, partly depends on host genetic factors. In this project we will collect clinical records, serum and saliva samples (n=400) from individuals infected with Zika/Chikungunya viruses with different degrees of illness and at the same time collect samples from individuals who live in the same environment but do not become sick. We intend to study whether mutations in the histo-blood groups antigens, DC-SIGN, TLR3, Fc?II (CD32), Viperin, CCR5 (CCR5?32) and IFNa and IFN ? contributes to morbidity.

Vi vill i detta projekt medverka till diagnostikmetodik och tekniköverföring till Nicaragua samt öka kunskapen om riskfaktorer som påverkar sjukdomsbilden hos personer som infekteras av Zikavirus och Chikungunya, två myggburna virus som de senaste åren spridits explosionsartat i Latinamerika och som av WHO klassas som ett globalt hot mot mänskligheten. Zikavirus är ett flavivirus som sprids till människa huvudsakligen från myggor (framförallt Aedes-arter). Från att ha betraktats som ett ofarligt virus anses det nu vara ett globalt hot på grund av dess förmåga att orsaka hjärnskada hos barn till gravida kvinnor samt neurologisk sjukdom hos vuxna. Antalet Zika-fall i Nicaragua är i nuläget okänt då de diagnostiska möjligheterna är mycket begränsade eller saknas helt. Chikungunyavirus, som sprids med samma mygg som Zikavirus, fanns tidigare bara i tropiska regioner i Afrika och Asien. Det första fallet i Latinamerika beskrevs 2013 i Saint Martin, och har sedan spridits till hela Syd- och Centralamerika. Bara i Nicaragua hade 53000 fall beskrivits i juli 2014 av vilka en majoritet (62%) av insjuknade personer fick kroniska symptom som kan vara i månader och år. Det finns i nuläget ingen specifik behandling eller vaccin mot vare sig Zika eller Chikungunya. Många personer som infekterats av dessa virus blir inte sjuka, och av de som insjuknar varierar symptomen från milda influensaliknande symptom till svåra neurologiska skador och kroniska symptom. Varför vi ser dessa kliniska skillnader vet inte idag, Vår hypotes är att det beror på genetiska faktorer hos människan. Vi har genom tidigare projekt med liknande virus som det fästingburna TBE viruset som är vanligt i Sverige hittat mutationer i vissa gener som gör att infekterade personer får allvarligare symptom. I detta projekt kommer vi att samla in provmaterial från personer som blivit infekterade med Zika/Chikungunya med olika svår grad av sjukdom och samtidigt samla in prov från personer som levt i samma miljö men inte blivit sjuka. Genom att undersöka skillnader mellan dessa grupper kommer vi kunna identifiera vilka genetiska och andra riskfaktorer som avgör hur allvarlig sjukdomen blir vid infektion. Vi avser att studera om mutationer i histo-blood groups antigen, DC-SIGN, TLR3, Fc?II (CD32), Viperin CCR5 (CCR5?32) samt TNFa och gamma bidrar till sjukligheten. Resultaten kan komma att ha stor betydelse för att identifiera riskgrupper, utveckla bra behandling mot sjukdom, och underlätta utvecklingen av framtida vacciner. Ett mycket viktigt mål i denna ansökan är diagnostikmetodik och tekniköverföring till Nicaragua. Vi avser även att långsiktigt fungera som diagnostiskstöd och referensfunktion för laboratoriet i Leon, Nicaragua med avseende på Zikavirus och Chikungunyavirus. I nuläget finns det få diagnostiska verktyg i Nicaragua och Central Amerika för myggburna infektioner. Detta leder till att många personer inte får korrekt diagnos vilket kan resultera i sämre behandling och inkorrekt information om infektionsläget. Etablerad och kvalitetssäkrad diagnostik av de nämnda virus är synnerligen högprioriterat vilket WHO har påtalat flera gånger.

This is a large problem in mountainous terrains, where small mountain rivers (SMR) erode and transport OC-rich top soil. A large amount of this OC pool in SMRs represents highly aged C, which when oxidized can be an additional hidden source of greenhouse-gas emission. OC release and oxidation via this aquatic conduit poses a livelihood challenge because loss of soil-OC diminishes its quality for agriculture, and degradation of OC could affect the climate. Nepal is affected by these changes both on short and long-term scales. Hence, the overarching aims of this study are to 1) develop and implement novel approaches to quantify the spatial and temporal variability of OC flux, and its fate in SMRs, and 2) initiate awareness and specific outreach activities for sustainable development practices. We will implement these goals by studying the variation of well-established multi-proxy physical and geochemical parameters in two SMRs located in western Nepal. The project will support proactive research initiatives and communication, and two-way knowledge exchange. These efforts will contribute towards better synergy, filling in knowledge gaps, and provide data for launching better soil conservation efforts and land-use practices. Moreover, it will empower the local community in making suitable and judicious decisions for sustainable development practices and reduce poverty. Mark innehåller den största poolen av svårnedbrutet och &quot;gammalt&quot; organiskt kol (OC) vilket i nuläget inte aktivt deltar i den terrestra kolcykeln. En ökad vittring tillika en förändrad markanvändning påverkar denna pool genom en ökad risk för nedbrytning. En del av detta transporteras vidare och återfinns i vattendrag där det transporteras vidare som löst och partikulärt material. Förlusten av detta markbundna kol försämrar markens kvalitet och påverkar därmed jordbruket. Dessutom kan den OC poolen som nu bryts ned vara ett betydande tillskott av växthusgaser som man hittills inte har inkluderat i de globala kolmodellerna. I nuläget är kunskap om och förståelsen av dessa flöden ofullständig då det saknas tillräcklig kunskap om: 1) storskalig mobilisering av OC (flöde) från landmiljöer, och 2) effekter av OC poolen nedströms när den mobiliseras. På en global skala bidrar små bergsfloder (SMR) med 17-35% av den totala flodbelastningen av partikulärt material. Faktum är att dessa SMR innehåller stora mängder av mycket gammalt C som snabbt eroderas från berggrunden. I de flesta av dessa avrinningsområden bedrivs dessutom ett intensivt jordbruk vilket främjar erosion och gör dem extremt sårbara för ytterligare vittring och nedbrytning av markbundet OC. Trots detta är det långsiktiga utvecklingen av denna antropogent påverkade OC pool och dess inverkan på den globala C cykeln och framtidens klimat dåligt kända. Nepal är starkt beroende av dessa små vattendrag för att upprätthålla sin ekonomi. Dessa bergsfloder tillhandahåller de vattenresurser som krävs för jordbruket och för generering av vattenkraft. En hållbar utveckling av infrastruktur för dessa vattendrag kan vara en tillgång för tillväxt och fattigdomsminskning, och samtidigt spela en viktig roll i klimatanpassning och begränsning av klimatgaser. I detta föreslagna projekt kommer vi att undersöka två bifloder i Nepal och deras avrinningsområden. Andhi Khola och Tinau Rivers är båda bifloder till det Himalaya flodsystemet Kali Gandak i västra Nepal. De övergripande målen för vår studie är tvåfaldigt: att utveckla och implementera nya integrerade metoder för att undersöka de komplexa effekterna av naturliga och antropogena förändringar på OC flöde som transporteras genom SMR. att engagera lokalbefolkningen, och förbättra tvåvägskunskapsutbyte och strategier för hållbar utveckling i området. För att ta itu med dessa mål kommer vi att arbeta parallellt med vetenskapliga studier/mål och att initiera en utåtriktad verksamhet tillsammans med lokalbefolkningen. Det vetenskapliga programmet kommer att innebära en bedömning av förändrad markanvändning och släntstabilitet, erosion och vattenkvalitetsanalys. För detta arbete kommer vi att genomföra flera provtagningar längs vattendraget följt av olika geokemiska och multivariata statistiska analyser, samt modellering för att fånga det dynamiska samspelet mellan hydrologi, ekologi och förändrad markanvändning pga jorderosion och klimatförändringar. Systematisk övervakning och laboratorieanalyser som genomförs under projektet kommer att innebära nya och högupplösta rumsliga och temporala uppgifter om vittring och OC flöde i denna typ av vattendrag. GIS-baserade kartor kommer att presentera data på jorderosion, OC flux, markanvändning mönster och andra aspekter. Detta ambitiösa och tvärvetenskapliga samarbetsprojekt kommer att pågå under 4 år. En tvärvetenskaplig grupp forskare från Sverige, Nepal och Storbritannien kommer att leda projektet. Genom att involvera en bred expertis hjälper det att styra våra styrkor för att mobilisera, bygga, och ytterligare integrera olika kunskapsfält. Projektet omfattar även ett utbyte av doktorander och forskare. Resultatet av dessa studier kommer att bli tillgängliga för regionala miljömyndigheter för att ge underlag till deras kommande planering för utveckling av området. I projektet ingår kunskapsutbyte och kunskaps överföring.

A large amount of this OC pool in SMRs represents highly aged C, which when oxidized can be an additional hidden source of greenhouse-gas emission. OC release and oxidation via this aquatic conduit poses a livelihood challenge because loss of soil-OC diminishes its quality for agriculture, and degradation of OC could affect the climate. Nepal is affected by these changes both on short and long-term scales. Hence, the overarching aims of this study are to 1) develop and implement novel approaches to quantify the spatial and temporal variability of OC flux, and its fate in SMRs, and 2) initiate awareness and specific outreach activities for sustainable development practices. We will implement these goals by studying the variation of well-established multi-proxy physical and geochemical parameters in two SMRs located in western Nepal. The project will support proactive research initiatives and communication, and two-way knowledge exchange. These efforts will contribute towards better synergy, filling in knowledge gaps, and provide data for launching better soil conservation efforts and land-use practices. Moreover, it will empower the local community in making suitable and judicious decisions for sustainable development practices and reduce poverty. Mark innehåller den största poolen av svårnedbrutet och &quot;gammalt&quot; organiskt kol (OC) vilket i nuläget inte aktivt deltar i den terrestra kolcykeln. En ökad vittring tillika en förändrad markanvändning påverkar denna pool genom en ökad risk för nedbrytning. En del av detta transporteras vidare och återfinns i vattendrag där det transporteras vidare som löst och partikulärt material. Förlusten av detta markbundna kol försämrar markens kvalitet och påverkar därmed jordbruket. Dessutom kan den OC poolen som nu bryts ned vara ett betydande tillskott av växthusgaser som man hittills inte har inkluderat i de globala kolmodellerna. I nuläget är kunskap om och förståelsen av dessa flöden ofullständig då det saknas tillräcklig kunskap om: 1) storskalig mobilisering av OC (flöde) från landmiljöer, och 2) effekter av OC poolen nedströms när den mobiliseras. På en global skala bidrar små bergsfloder (SMR) med 17-35% av den totala flodbelastningen av partikulärt material. Faktum är att dessa SMR innehåller stora mängder av mycket gammalt C som snabbt eroderas från berggrunden. I de flesta av dessa avrinningsområden bedrivs dessutom ett intensivt jordbruk vilket främjar erosion och gör dem extremt sårbara för ytterligare vittring och nedbrytning av markbundet OC. Trots detta är det långsiktiga utvecklingen av denna antropogent påverkade OC pool och dess inverkan på den globala C cykeln och framtidens klimat dåligt kända. Nepal är starkt beroende av dessa små vattendrag för att upprätthålla sin ekonomi. Dessa bergsfloder tillhandahåller de vattenresurser som krävs för jordbruket och för generering av vattenkraft. En hållbar utveckling av infrastruktur för dessa vattendrag kan vara en tillgång för tillväxt och fattigdomsminskning, och samtidigt spela en viktig roll i klimatanpassning och begränsning av klimatgaser. I detta föreslagna projekt kommer vi att undersöka två bifloder i Nepal och deras avrinningsområden. Andhi Khola och Tinau Rivers är båda bifloder till det Himalaya flodsystemet Kali Gandak i västra Nepal. De övergripande målen för vår studie är tvåfaldigt: att utveckla och implementera nya integrerade metoder för att undersöka de komplexa effekterna av naturliga och antropogena förändringar på OC flöde som transporteras genom SMR. att engagera lokalbefolkningen, och förbättra tvåvägskunskapsutbyte och strategier för hållbar utveckling i området. För att ta itu med dessa mål kommer vi att arbeta parallellt med vetenskapliga studier/mål och att initiera en utåtriktad verksamhet tillsammans med lokalbefolkningen. Det vetenskapliga programmet kommer att innebära en bedömning av förändrad markanvändning och släntstabilitet, erosion och vattenkvalitetsanalys. För detta arbete kommer vi att genomföra flera provtagningar längs vattendraget följt av olika geokemiska och multivariata statistiska analyser, samt modellering för att fånga det dynamiska samspelet mellan hydrologi, ekologi och förändrad markanvändning pga jorderosion och klimatförändringar. Systematisk övervakning och laboratorieanalyser som genomförs under projektet kommer att innebära nya och högupplösta rumsliga och temporala uppgifter om vittring och OC flöde i denna typ av vattendrag. GIS-baserade kartor kommer att presentera data på jorderosion, OC flux, markanvändning mönster och andra aspekter. Detta ambitiösa och tvärvetenskapliga samarbetsprojekt kommer att pågå under 4 år. En tvärvetenskaplig grupp forskare från Sverige, Nepal och Storbritannien kommer att leda projektet. Genom att involvera en bred expertis hjälper det att styra våra styrkor för att mobilisera, bygga, och ytterligare integrera olika kunskapsfält. Projektet omfattar även ett utbyte av doktorander och forskare. Resultatet av dessa studier kommer att bli tillgängliga för regionala miljömyndigheter för att ge underlag till deras kommande planering för utveckling av området. I projektet ingår kunskapsutbyte och kunskaps överföring.

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. Sjukdomspanoramat i världen håller på att ändras. Den världsordning som varit rådande de senaste decennierna, där människor i låginkomstländer dör av smittsamma sjukdomar såsom malaria, tuberkulos och HIV och befolkningen i höginkomstländer dör av icke-smittsamma sjukdomar som hjärtinfarkt, stroke och cancer, gäller inte längre. Två tredjedelar av alla dödsfall i världen beror idag på icke-smittsamma sjukdomar. Det som dödar flest människor globalt, även i låginkomstländer, är hjärt-kärlsjukdomar. Dessa sjukdomar ökar med ökad ålder. Vi känner redan till många av riskfaktorerna, men förstår ännu inte helt förstår varför vissa drabbas och andra inte, trots att man blivit utsatt för samma riskfaktorer. Mitt i korsningen mellan smittsamma och icke-smittsamma sjukdomar befinner sig HIV. HIV är en infektionssjukdom i grunden, men den livslånga behandlingen med krav på kontinuerlig uppföljning från sjukvården har mer gemensamt med behandlingen av icke-smittsamma sjukdomar som hjärtkärlsjukdomar. Personer som lever med HIV har också ökad risk för just hjärt-kärlsjukdomar. Detta har föreslagits bero på biverkningar av HIV-mediciner, men sannolikt är det just att gå runt med den långvariga inflammation som HIV-infektionen ger som ökar risken mest. HIV har drabbat länder i Afrika söder om Sahara allra hårdast. Här lever idag också majoriteten av de människor som använder HIV-mediciner. Tillgången till HIV-läkemedel har ökat dramatiskt på sistone och infrastruktur för att ta hand om HIV-patienter har i många länder byggts upp med goda resultat på överlevnaden. Detta leder till att fler människor lever allt längre med HIV. Dessa faktorer sammantaget gör att vi kan förvänta oss en stor ökning av hjärt-kärlsjukdomar i länder i Afrika söder om Sahara, något som kommer att bli tungt för hälso- och sjukvården som ofta lider stor brist på utbildad personal, laboratorieutrustning, uppföljningssystem, och fungerande distributionssystem för läkemedel. I distriktet Rakai vid Victoriasjön i Uganda har man följt befolkningen i ett 50-tal byar sedan 1994. Distriktet har en av de högsta HIV-förekomsterna i världen, med i genomsnitt 10% av befolkningen smittad. I vissa fiskebyar bär dock över 30% på HIV. Den hälso-demografiska surveillance siten Rakai HDSS erbjuder helt unika förutsättningar för avancerad HIV-forskning, då man HIV-testat över 20,000 personer årligen. På så sätt kan man säga på ett år när, när en person blivit smittad och bedöma incidensen av hiv och trender i antalet nya infektioner. Liknande data finns inte att tillgå någon annanstans i världen. Man har där också löpande samlat in information om ålder, kön, socioekonomiskt status, utbildning, familjestorlek, riskbeteende, vilka läkemedel personer med HIV har tagit, blodprover för att mäta nivån på deras immunförsvar och mycket annat. Alla deltagare följs för närvarande upp en gång per år av välutbildad forskningspersonal, med intervjuer och blodprovstagning. I samarbete med forskningsteam planerar vi nu att kartlägga hur det ser ut med kända riskfaktorer för hjärt-kärlsjukdomar, genom att använda oss av tidigare kvalitetstestade och välkända riskformulär med frågor om bl.a. vikt, blodtryck, midjemått, rökning, ärftlighet för diabetes och hjärt-kärlsjukdomar samt även ta prover för att mäta blodsocker och blodfetter med hjälp av av bloddroppar från fingret till filterpapper för vidare analys.

Leprosy and PKDL primarily occur in populations of extreme poverty, while vitiligo, affects millions. In common is that the conditions can be highly stigmatizing. In India the stigma of vitiligo make patients choose to undergo reconstructive surgery to improve their appearance, a procedure rarely carried out in Sweden due to the risk of local recurrence of disease in the scar. The outward resemblance of vitiligo and leprosy contributes to the stigma, particularly in poor populations. Little is known about the causes of melanocyte destruction and if there possibly are any beneficial effects of the hypopigmentation. We aim to understand the role immune cells in the skin have in destruction of the pigment producing melanocytes. In particular, we are interested in how cells T contribute to melanocyte destruction in skin disorders of autoimmune and infectious origin. We will do this by assessment of skin immune cells. In both leprosy and PKDL the skin is a target for the infectious organism. However, there is limited knowledge about immune reactions and the immune cells in the skin. We want to increase the understanding we have of pathologies in these diseases something that can be of potential benefit for their management and their elimination. Målet med detta forsknings projekt är att förstå varför de pigment bildande melanocyterna dör i vitiligo, spetälska (lepra) och post kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) och vilka likheter och skillnader det finns i immunsvaret mellan autoimmun och infektiös pigment förlust (hypopigmentering). Vitiligo räkans till de autoimmuna sjukdomarna. Det är den vanligaste formen av pigmentförlust och cirka ca 1% av jordens befolkning lider av vitiligo. Sjukdomen är mer påtaglig hos mörkhyade och kan vara mycket stigmatiserande. I Indien väljer många drabbade att operera bort vitiligo hud, en procedur som man undviker i Sverige eftersom hyperpigmentationen ofta återuppstår i ärrvävnaden. I fattiga och lågutbildade grupper där infektionssjukdomar, som lepra fortfarande finns, kan hypopigmentation vara extra problematiskt och göra det svårt för drabbade att få arbete och därmed kunna försörja sig. Spetälska (lepra) och post kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) är två infektionssjukdomar som nästan uteslutande drabbar de allra fattigaste. De räknas enligt WHO/TDR som "försummade" tropiska sjukdomar vilket betyder att de forskningsresurser som läggs på att studera dessa sjukdomar inte står i förhållande till det lidande som de orsakar. Hypopigmentering är vanligt tecken på båda dessa sjukdomar. Vår forskning kommer att öka förståelse av hur immunceller i huden bidrar till patologin i samband med hypopigmentering. Vi kommer också att mer generell kunskap om betydelsen av olika immunceller i huden vid lepra och PKDL och om hypopigmenteringen möjligen har något syfte som är till nytta för den drabbade. Våra resultat kan ligga till grund utveckling för nya behandlingsstrategier av vitiligo och för att undvika immunreaktioner i samband med behandling av lepra samt vara viktiga för strategier för eliminering av PKDL. Indien är ett land under snabb utveckling, men där det fortfarande finns stora problem med fattigdom och där infektionssjukdomar försvunna från andra platser fortfarande finns. Vi kommer att göra avancerad translationell forskning, av hög kvalité, där vi kombinera studier av vitiligo med studier av lepra och PKDL för att förstå de underliggande mekanismerna bakom melanocyt död. Vi gör detta genom att isolera och studera immunceller i hudbiopsier från patienter. Genom att inkludera en sjukdom som drabbar miljoner i våra studier hoppas vi framgent kunna attrahera mer forskningsfinansiering och på så sätt allokera resurser till studier av sjukdomar drabbar de fattigaste, där det normalt är svårt att hitta forskningsfinansiering.

Bacteria are carriers of ARGs and associated with planktonic organisms, and studies of plankton and oceanic circulation may provide new insight into the spread of resistance. However, to establish fair and effective governance of antibiotic use, especially in developing countries where aquaculture production is an important source of livelihood and revenue, it is also necessary to know the driving forces behind the usage. Our aim is to produce a synthesis, based on biophysical and socioeconomic factors, for policy recommendations for Asia and East Africa. The synthesis will be based on empirical results and we will address where and on which level remedies to prevent antibiotic resistance spread are most effective. More specifically, we will investigate the local economic role of, and need for antibiotics and produce a cost-benefit analysis. We will map the flow of antibiotics from production to use in order to identify points in the value chain where restrictions would be fair and effective. Further, we will use metagenomics to identify genetic fingerprints of the ARG pool from four aquaculture sites. The spread of specific ARG patterns are hypothesised to be linked to the dispersal of phytoplankton and will be projected by oceanographic connectivity models and verified with repeated sampling at different geographic scales. Antibiotika är förmodligen 1900-talets viktigaste upptäckt. I miljön finns naturligt bakterier som är resistenta mot antibiotika. Naturlig selektion gynnar bakterier som har förvärvat egenskapen att stå emot antibiotika och egenskapen sprids i bakteriepopulationer. Antibiotika resistens hos en bakterie kan förvärvas genom spontan mutation, genom överföring av genetiskt material från en annan bakterie, eller genom överföring via en vektor (en baketriofag). Ett av de stora problemen idag är den ökande resistensspridningen hos bakterier. Denna har ökat till följd av att mer antibiotika används och sprids i naturen. En av de stora källorna till antibiotika i miljön är modern akvakultur. Detta illustreras av den utbredda användningen av profylaktisk antibiotika inom branschen, särskilt i utvecklingsländerna, för att förebygga bakterieinfektioner. Användningen av ett stort antal olika antibiotikatyper i enorma mängder, inklusive icke-biologiskt nedbrytbar antibiotika, gör att antibiotika ackumuleras i sediment och vattenpelare och utövar ett selektivt tryck under långa tidsperioder. Detta har resulterat i en enorm ökning av antibiotikaresistenta bakterier i akvatiska miljöer, inkluderat arter som är patogener på fisk och skaldjur, och i ökad överföring av resistens till sjukdomsalstrande bakterier associerade med människan. Det krävs nu globala insatser för att främja mer omdömesgill användning av antibiotika inom vattenbruk, och ökad kunskap om hur antibiotikaresistens sprids i akvatisk miljö. Vi vill i vårt multidisciplinära projekt bidra med kunskap för att minska spridningen av antibiotika i marin miljö. Vi vill testa en ny hypotes som innebär att antibiotikaresistenta bakterier associerade med planktonorganismer sprids till andra marina områden via havsströmmar och därmed sprider resistensgener till nya bakteriepopulationer. Det finns studier som visar att skadliga bakterier kan nå global spridning på detta vis och det finns all anledning att anta att resistens kan färdas på samma sätt. Vårt övergripande mål är att kunna utveckla en handlingsplan för etablerade vattenbruksmiljöer i Asien och för tillväxande vattenbruksmiljöer i östra Afrika. Handlingsplanen kommer att vara baserad på empiriska resultat från samhällsvetenskapliga och biologiska-oceanografiska studier. Vi använder oss av fyra vattenbruksmiljöer i Indien som representerar olika produktionsintensitet och historisk bakgrund. I den samhällsvetenskapliga delen av projektet kommer vi att undersöka förutsättningarna för användande av antibiotika i vattenbruk. Varför använder man antibiotika, hur mycket används, har användandet ändrats över tid, och är man medveten om miljöriskerna som antibiotikaanvändning innebär? Vi kommer att utföra en ekosystem tjänst-baserad analys av kostnaden och nyttan av antibiotika användning för varje område och jämföra dem. Vidare så kommer vi att undersöka antibiotika från produktion till användande ur ett politiskt-ekonomiskt perspektiv. Detta för att vi ska kunna identifiera var i kedjan en strategisk handlingsplan för begränsad antibiotika användning kan få störst genomslagskraft. Insamlande av biologiska data kommer att ske i samma vattenbruksmiljöer. Vi kommer initialt att definiera ett genetiskt fingeravtryck för varje vattenbruksområde som kopplar till den lokala användningen av antibiotika. Det genetiska fingeravtrycket kommer troligen att bestå av densiteten och förekomsten av specifika antibiotika resistenta gener, men den kan även innehålla klonspecifika genetiska markörer hos bakterier som kan tänkas vara bärare av antibiotika resistens och som vanligtvis associerar med växtplankton. Själva insamlandet går till så att vi samlar in planktonprover och extraherar DNA. Sen gör vi en metagenom sekvensering.

Bacteria are carriers of ARGs and associated with planktonic organisms, and studies of plankton and oceanic circulation may provide new insight into the spread of resistance. However, to establish fair and effective governance of antibiotic use, especially in developing countries where aquaculture production is an important source of livelihood and revenue, it is also necessary to know the driving forces behind the usage. Our aim is to produce a synthesis, based on biophysical and socioeconomic factors, for policy recommendations for Asia and East Africa. The synthesis will be based on empirical results and we will address where and on which level remedies to prevent antibiotic resistance spread are most effective. More specifically, we will investigate the local economic role of, and need for antibiotics and produce a cost-benefit analysis. We will map the flow of antibiotics from production to use in order to identify points in the value chain where restrictions would be fair and effective. Further, we will use metagenomics to identify genetic fingerprints of the ARG pool from four aquaculture sites. The spread of specific ARG patterns are hypothesised to be linked to the dispersal of phytoplankton and will be projected by oceanographic connectivity models and verified with repeated sampling at different geographic scales.

Handlingsplanen kommer att vara baserad på empiriska resultat från samhällsvetenskapliga och biologiska-oceanografiska studier. Vi använder oss av fyra vattenbruksmiljöer i Indien som representerar olika produktionsintensitet och historisk bakgrund. I den samhällsvetenskapliga delen av projektet kommer vi att undersöka förutsättningarna för användande av antibiotika i vattenbruk. Varför använder man antibiotika, hur mycket används, har användandet ändrats över tid, och är man medveten om miljöriskerna som antibiotikaanvändning innebär? Vi kommer att utföra en ekosystem tjänst-baserad analys av kostnaden och nyttan av antibiotika användning för varje område och jämföra dem. Vidare så kommer vi att undersöka antibiotika från produktion till användande ur ett politiskt-ekonomiskt perspektiv. Detta för att vi ska kunna identifiera var i kedjan en strategisk handlingsplan för begränsad antibiotika användning kan få störst genomslagskraft. Insamlande av biologiska data kommer att ske i samma vattenbruksmiljöer. Vi kommer initialt att definiera ett genetiskt fingeravtryck för varje vattenbruksområde som kopplar till den lokala användningen av antibiotika. Det genetiska fingeravtrycket kommer troligen att bestå av densiteten och förekomsten av specifika antibiotika resistenta gener, men den kan även innehålla klonspecifika genetiska markörer hos bakterier som kan tänkas vara bärare av antibiotika resistens och som vanligtvis associerar med växtplankton. Själva insamlandet går till så att vi samlar in planktonprover och extraherar DNA. Sen gör vi en metagenom sekvensering. Den data vi erhåller bearbetas med bioinformatisk analys och jämförs med databaser som innehåller tusentals aminosyrasekvenser kända för att medföra antibiotika resistens. Vi kommer sen att försöka följa detta genetiska fingera Sweden Göteborgs universitet The Swedish Research Council Göteborgs universitet 14.a - Increase scientific knowledge, develop research capacity and transfer marine technology, taking into account the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission Criteria and Guidelines on the Transfer of Marine Technology, in order to improve ocean health and to enhance the contribution of marine biodiversity to the development of developing countries, in particular small island developing States and least developed countries. 14.a - Öka den vetenskapliga kunskapen, utveckla forskningskapaciteten och överföra havsteknik, med hänsyn tagen till den mellanstatliga oceanografiska kommissionens kriterier och riktlinjer för överföring av havsteknik (Criteria and Guidelines on the Transfer of Marine Technology), i syfte att skapa friskare hav och öka den marina biologiska mångfaldens bidrag till utvecklingen i utvecklingsländerna, i synnerhet i små önationer under utveckling och de minst utvecklade länderna.

However, disease outbreaks among cultured animals put significant constraint and affect the economic development. Vibrios belonging to the Harveyi clade are pathogenic marine bacteria affecting both vertebrates and invertebrates causing devastating luminescent Vibriosis. The virulence of vibrios is controlled by different regulatory systems, including quorum sensing (QS-bacterial cell to cell communication through signal molecules). We have in a previous study seen that in the presence of microalgae there is a down regulation of virulence genes expression in Harveyi clade vibrios with known QS regulation. In the present study, by a series of experiments, we will investigate the QS response of pathogenic Harveyi clade Vibrios when grown together with microalgae in the presence of the gnotobiotic Artemia as a crustacean model organism, and simultaneously determine the effect on survival of Artemia infected with pathogenic Harveyi clade vibrios. Our intention is to work and develop a small-scale gnotobiotic model system that is easy to control.

De flesta av oss drabbas någon gång under livet av åkommor som kräver operation eller kirurgisk expertis. Detta kan vara allt från en medfödd missbildning hos ett barn till operation av en höftfraktur hos en äldre människa. Vi drabbas av trafikolyckor, cancer eller gallsten och räknar med att den kirurgiska kompetensen finns där för att ta hand om oss. Kirurgi är en självklar del av vårt sjukvårdssystem men så ser det inte ut i alla delar av världen. Fem miljarder människor har inte tillgång till säker kirurgi till en kostnad som de har råd med när behovet för en operation uppstår. Kirurgiska sjukdomar står för över 30% av den samlade sjukligheten i världen. Värst drabbade är de fattiga länderna i Afrika söder om Sahara där risken att dö av en kirurgisk sjukdom är högst i världen. Denna ojämlika situation beror till stor del av att man länge helt felaktigt trott att kirurgi är dyrt och onödigt i fattiga länder. I själva verket är kirurgiska ingrepp bland de mest kostnadseffektiva sjukvårdsinsatserna även i låg- och medelinkomstländer (LMIL). Mot bakgrund av dessa insikter har ett nytt område inom fältet global hälsa uppstått; Global Kirurgi. Målet med global kirurgi är att förbättra hälsa och uppnå jämlikhet för alla människor som behöver kirurgisk sjukvård, med fokus på de som lever i delar av världen där tillgången på kirurgi är sämst. För att nå detta ambitiösa mål krävs omfattande investeringar. För att prioritera rätt krävs stora forskningsinsatser omfattande allt från hur vanliga vissa sjukdomar är till hur de bäst ska behandlas och vad det i slutändan skulle kosta. I första hand bör sjukdomar som bidrar till betydande sjuklighet och som kan behandlas framgångsrikt med kirurgi eller där kirurgi är avgörande för prognosen prioriteras. Ljumskbråck är ett sådant exempel. Ljumskbråck är bland de vanligaste kirurgiska diagnoserna i världen. 220 miljoner människor uppskattas leva med denna åkomma som orsakar mycket lidande och även 40000 dödsfall varje år. Med 20 miljoner patienter opererade per år är det bland de vanligaste utförda operationerna men det icke tillgodosedda behovet för kirurgi är omfattande. I västvärlden kan en fjärdedel av alla män och tre procent av alla kvinnor räkna med att de behöver opereras för ljumskbråck någon gång under sin livstid. I en tidigare studie i Uganda hade 6.6% av vuxna män ljumskbråck medan mindre än 1% av det förväntade antalet ljumskbråck i befolkningen opererades per år. Den kirurgiska volymen är alltså inte tillräcklig. Utöver detta volymproblem finns också kvalitetsmässiga problem. I höginkomstländer opereras ljumskbråck oftast med ett syntetiskt nät. Detta hjälper till att stärka upp bukväggen och minskar risken för recidiv påtagligt. I låginkomstländer har varken sjukvårdssystemen eller patienterna råd med dessa nät, som kostar över 100 dollar. I en nyligen publicerad studie som finansierades av Vetenskapsrådet, visade vi hur ett myggnät med liknande struktur kunde steriliseras och användas istället för det dyra nätet. Detta innebär att en överlägsen kirurgisk metod kan intriduceras till förmån för de miljontals bråckpatienter som lever i låg- och medelinkomstländer. För att kunna intriducera en ny teknik krävs dock omfattande utbildningsinsatser. Det är också nödvändigt att undersöka vilka personalgrupper som ska tillhandahålla denna typ av kirurgi. Då bristen på specialister i kirurgi är överhängande så opererar vanliga läkare men även icke-läkare de allra flesta bråckpatienterna i många låginkomstländer i Afrika. I denna studie kommer vi utveckla ett strukturerat utbildningsprogram för dessa personalkategorier och patienterna kommer följas under ett år efter operationen. Studien kommer utföras i fyra länder; Ghana, Sierra Leone, Uganda och Tanzania.

Med 20 miljoner patienter opererade per år är det bland de vanligaste utförda operationerna men det icke tillgodosedda behovet för kirurgi är omfattande. I västvärlden kan en fjärdedel av alla män och tre procent av alla kvinnor räkna med att de behöver opereras för ljumskbråck någon gång under sin livstid. I en tidigare studie i Uganda hade 6.6% av vuxna män ljumskbråck medan mindre än 1% av det förväntade antalet ljumskbråck i befolkningen opererades per år. Den kirurgiska volymen är alltså inte tillräcklig. Utöver detta volymproblem finns också kvalitetsmässiga problem. I höginkomstländer opereras ljumskbråck oftast med ett syntetiskt nät. Detta hjälper till att stärka upp bukväggen och minskar risken för recidiv påtagligt. I låginkomstländer har varken sjukvårdssystemen eller patienterna råd med dessa nät, som kostar över 100 dollar. I en nyligen publicerad studie som finansierades av Vetenskapsrådet, visade vi hur ett myggnät med liknande struktur kunde steriliseras och användas istället för det dyra nätet. Detta innebär att en överlägsen kirurgisk metod kan intriduceras till förmån för de miljontals bråckpatienter som lever i låg- och medelinkomstländer. För att kunna intriducera en ny teknik krävs dock omfattande utbildningsinsatser. Det är också nödvändigt att undersöka vilka personalgrupper som ska tillhandahålla denna typ av kirurgi. Då bristen på specialister i kirurgi är överhängande så opererar vanliga läkare men även icke-läkare de allra flesta bråckpatienterna i många låginkomstländer i Afrika. I denna studie kommer vi utveckla ett strukturerat utbildningsprogram för dessa personalkategorier och patienterna kommer följas under ett år efter operationen. Studien kommer utföras i fyra länder; Ghana, Sierra Leone, Uganda och Tanzania.

Patients (adult men with reducible, primary groin hernia) will be included at the respective study sites (n=228 per site).

This is urgent as the unmet need for groin hernia surgey amounts to many millions of patients worldwide. De flesta av oss drabbas någon gång under livet av åkommor som kräver operation eller kirurgisk expertis. Detta kan vara allt från en medfödd missbildning hos ett barn till operation av en höftfraktur hos en äldre människa. Vi drabbas av trafikolyckor, cancer eller gallsten och räknar med att den kirurgiska kompetensen finns där för att ta hand om oss. Kirurgi är en självklar del av vårt sjukvårdssystem men så ser det inte ut i alla delar av världen. Fem miljarder människor har inte tillgång till säker kirurgi till en kostnad som de har råd med när behovet för en operation uppstår. Kirurgiska sjukdomar står för över 30% av den samlade sjukligheten i världen. Värst drabbade är de fattiga länderna i Afrika söder om Sahara där risken att dö av en kirurgisk sjukdom är högst i världen. Denna ojämlika situation beror till stor del av att man länge helt felaktigt trott att kirurgi är dyrt och onödigt i fattiga länder. I själva verket är kirurgiska ingrepp bland de mest kostnadseffektiva sjukvårdsinsatserna även i låg- och medelinkomstländer (LMIL). Mot bakgrund av dessa insikter har ett nytt område inom fältet global hälsa uppstått; Global Kirurgi. Målet med global kirurgi är att förbättra hälsa och uppnå jämlikhet för alla människor som behöver kirurgisk sjukvård, med fokus på de som lever i delar av världen där tillgången på kirurgi är sämst. För att nå detta ambitiösa mål krävs omfattande investeringar. För att prioritera rätt krävs stora forskningsinsatser omfattande allt från hur vanliga vissa sjukdomar är till hur de bäst ska behandlas och vad det i slutändan skulle kosta. I första hand bör sjukdomar som bidrar till betydande sjuklighet och som kan behandlas framgångsrikt med kirurgi eller där kirurgi är avgörande för prognosen prioriteras.

Infectious diseases of sheep and goats represent serious constraints to further development and sustainable intensification of smallholder production, and have been described as key factors driving rural smallholders into chronic poverty. In addition, zoonotic infections, such as Rift Valley fever (RVF), cause disease in humans and animals and have great impact on the health, as well as leading to impaired food security. In this project, we will focus on the circulation of infectious diseases in sheep and goats close to the Tanzania-Zambia border, in farms and at live animal markets. We will identify known and yet to be characterised pathogens associated to clinical disease in sheep and goats in farms and live animal markets at the Tanzania-Zambia border and live animal markets in the capital of Zambia, using a metagenomic approach. In addition, we will assess perceived risks and true hazards of infectious diseases in sheep and goats in the border region based on participatory epidemiological tools and serology. This trans-national and cross-disciplinary collaboration brings together veterinary and social scientists of complementary expertise necessary to bring sheep and goat health in developing countries forward. Gå över gränsen - Infektionssjukdomar hos små idisslare på gårdar och marknader längs gränsen mellan Tanzania och Zambia. Får och getter är vanliga husdjur i små lantbruk och för eget husbehov i Afrika, Mellanöstern och Asien. Djuren sköts ofta av kvinnor och småbruket utgör en viktig extrainkomst för dem och deras familjer. Denna sidoinkomst kan vara direkt avgörande för deras dagliga överlevnad och är ett viktigt led i demokrati- och jämlikhetsutvecklingen. Smittsamma djursjukdomar såsom peste des petits ruminants (PPR) och smittsam lungsäcks- och lunginflammation hos get (CCPP) utgör emellertid allvarliga hinder för vidareutveckling av småbruken och har beskrivits som en viktig faktor som kan leda till kronisk fattigdom. I jämförelse med nötkreatur, som är relativt dyra, har även de fattigaste människorna på den afrikanska landsbygden råd att köpa får och getter. Dessa djur används ofta inom byteshandel, för ceremoniella ändamål, för att betala läkarbesök, med mera. Därför räknas de ofta inte med i den officiella ekonomin. Det kan vara dålig tillgänglighet till veterinärer och andra rådgivare, och dessa prioriterar inte alltid får och get. Dessutom väljer vanligen de resurssvaga djurägarna att inte tillkalla veterinär för att förebygga, diagnostisera eller behandla får och getter. Utbrott av smittsamma sjukdomar blir därför inte alltid uppmärksammade och dess konsekvenser kan därför lätt missas. I Tanzania förekommer både PPR och CCPP. Däremot är Zambia officiellt fritt från dessa allvarliga sjukdomar. Emellertid har antikroppar mot PPR-viruset påvisats hos får och getter i delar av Zambia, utan kliniska symtom. En omfattande och okontrollerad gränshandel av djur förekommer mellan Tanzania och Zambia. Det finns därför en hög till måttlig risk för att PPR och CCPP ska sprida sig till Zambia från Tanzania. Levandedjursmarknader samlar djur från flera gårdar och områden på ett och samma ställe. Djuren har ofta transporterats långa sträckor, vilket kan orsaka stress och därmed att djuren blir känsligare för smittor. De flesta får och getter vid sådana här marknader säljs direkt till slakt, men det går inte att utesluta att en del djur säljs för att flyttas till nya gårdar. Detta utgör en hög och allvarlig risk för smittspridning över stora områden. I detta projekt kommer vi att undersöka vilka smittämnen som orsakar klinisk sjukdom hos får och get. Vi kommer här att använda oss av så kallad storskalig sekvensering för att identifiera alla virus, bakterier och parasiter i ett prov. Dessutom kommer vi utvärdera risken för smittspridning över gränsen mellan Tanzania och Zambia, genom att undersöka förekomst av utvalda sjukdomar vid gårdar och marknader i gränsregionen. Handelsvägar från marknader i Zambias huvudstad Lusaka kommer att kartläggas för att på så sätt utvärdera risken för smittspridning. Vi kommer vidare att samla in information om bönders och djurhandlares kunskap och attityder gällande sjukdomar hos djuren, samt hur de hanterar olika situationer. Detta kommer att göras genom att involvera bönderna i diskussionsgrupper och genom att intervjua djurhandlarna. Deltagardriven forskning, där bönder och djurhandlare själva aktivt deltar i till exempel diskussionsgrupper och intervjuer, har visat sig särskilt viktig vid forskning om smittsamma djursjukdomar och dess konsekvenser. Projektet kommer att leda till ökad förståelse för epidemiologin, riskerna och konsekvenserna för smittsamma sjukdomar hos får och get. Experter inom både veterinärmedicin och samhällsvetenskap deltar i projektet. Samarbete mellan olika forskningsfält och den kunskap projektet kommer leda till är viktiga för förståelsen och bekämpningen av smittsamma djursjukdomar samt ett viktigt led i fattigdomsbekämpningen.

Handelsvägar från marknader i Zambias huvudstad Lusaka kommer att kartläggas för att på så sätt utvärdera risken för smittspridning. Vi kommer vidare att samla in information om bönders och djurhandlares kunskap och attityder gällande sjukdomar hos djuren, samt hur de hanterar olika situationer. Detta kommer att göras genom att involvera bönderna i diskussionsgrupper och genom att intervjua djurhandlarna. Deltagardriven forskning, där bönder och djurhandlare själva aktivt deltar i till exempel diskussionsgrupper och intervjuer, har visat sig särskilt viktig vid forskning om smittsamma djursjukdomar och dess konsekvenser. Projektet kommer att leda till ökad förståelse för epidemiologin, riskerna och konsekvenserna för smittsamma sjukdomar hos får och get. Experter inom både veterinärmedicin och samhällsvetenskap deltar i projektet. Samarbete mellan olika forskningsfält och den kunskap projektet kommer leda till är viktiga för förståelsen och bekämpningen av smittsamma djursjukdomar samt ett viktigt led i fattigdomsbekämpningen. Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Tanzania, United Republic of Agricultural research Agriculture SE-0-SE-29-2016-05667_2-1 Sweden Small ruminants (sheep and goats) are important species for food security, especially for resource-constrained smallholder farmers in countries such as Zambia and Tanzania. Infectious diseases of sheep and goats represent serious constraints to further development and sustainable intensification of smallholder production, and have been described as key factors driving rural smallholders into chronic poverty. In addition, zoonotic infections, such as Rift Valley fever (RVF), cause disease in humans and animals and have great impact on the health, as well as leading to impaired food security. In this project, we will focus on the circulation of infectious diseases in sheep and goats close to the Tanzania-Zambia border, in farms and at live animal markets. We will identify known and yet to be characterised pathogens associated to clinical disease in sheep and goats in farms and live animal markets at the Tanzania-Zambia border and live animal markets in the capital of Zambia, using a metagenomic approach. In addition, we will assess perceived risks and true hazards of infectious diseases in sheep and goats in the border region based on participatory epidemiological tools and serology. This trans-national and cross-disciplinary collaboration brings together veterinary and social scientists of complementary expertise necessary to bring sheep and goat health in developing countries forward. Gå över gränsen - Infektionssjukdomar hos små idisslare på gårdar och marknader längs gränsen mellan Tanzania och Zambia. Får och getter är vanliga husdjur i små lantbruk och för eget husbehov i Afrika, Mellanöstern och Asien. Djuren sköts ofta av kvinnor och småbruket utgör en viktig extrainkomst för dem och deras familjer. Denna sidoinkomst kan vara direkt avgörande för deras dagliga överlevnad och är ett viktigt led i demokrati- och jämlikhetsutvecklingen. Smittsamma djursjukdomar såsom peste des petits ruminants (PPR) och smittsam lungsäcks- och lunginflammation hos get (CCPP) utgör emellertid allvarliga hinder för vidareutveckling av småbruken och har beskrivits som en viktig faktor som kan leda till kronisk fattigdom. I jämförelse med nötkreatur, som är relativt dyra, har även de fattigaste människorna på den afrikanska landsbygden råd att köpa får och getter. Dessa djur används ofta inom byteshandel, för ceremoniella ändamål, för att betala läkarbesök, med mera. Därför räknas de ofta inte med i den officiella ekonomin. Det kan vara dålig tillgänglighet till veterinärer och andra rådgivare, och dessa prioriterar inte alltid får och get. Dessutom väljer vanligen de resurssvaga djurägarna att inte tillkalla veterinär för att förebygga, diagnostisera eller behandla får och getter. Utbrott av smittsamma sjukdomar blir därför inte alltid uppmärksammade och dess konsekvenser kan därför lätt missas. I Tanzania förekommer både PPR och CCPP. Däremot är Zambia officiellt fritt från dessa allvarliga sjukdomar. Emellertid har antikroppar mot PPR-viruset påvisats hos får och getter i delar av Zambia, utan kliniska symtom. En omfattande och okontrollerad gränshandel av djur förekommer mellan Tanzania och Zambia. Det finns därför en hög till måttlig risk för att PPR och CCPP ska sprida sig till Zambia från Tanzania. Levandedjursmarknader samlar djur från flera gårdar och områden på ett och samma ställe. Djuren har ofta transporterats långa sträckor, vilket kan orsaka stress och därmed att djuren blir känsligare för smittor. De flesta får och getter vid sådana här marknader säljs direkt till slakt, men det går inte att utesluta att en del djur säljs för att flyttas till nya gårdar. Detta utgör en hög och allvarlig risk för smittspridning över stora områden. I detta projekt kommer vi att undersöka vilka smittämnen som orsakar klinisk sjukdom hos får och get. Vi kommer här att använda oss av så kallad storskalig sekvensering för att identifiera alla virus, bakterier och parasiter i ett prov. Dessutom kommer vi utvärdera risken för smittspridning över gränsen mellan Tanzania och Zambia, genom att undersöka förekomst av utvalda sjukdomar vid gårdar och marknader i gränsregionen.

New collaborators are University of Nairobi and International Pregnancy Advisory Services (Ipas). Unsafe abortion is a leading cause of maternal mortality (MM) and morbidity in Kenya. Social stigma surrounding abortion and contraceptive use plays a critical role in social, medical, and legal marginalization of abortion- and contraceptive service. In 2013, Ipas developed the Stigmatizing Attitudes, Beliefs and Actions Scale (SABAS) to measure abortion stigma at individual and community level. Objective: I) to conceptualize abortion stigma among health care providers in youth friendly centres, teachers and students in secondary school (14-18 y) in a sub-urban area with high MM, and II) to determine if a school based abortion- and contraceptive-stigma reduction intervention will decrease stigma, and increase contraceptive use among students. Design, Setting, Participants: I) focus group discussions with providers, teachers and students, and II) a quantitative quasi-experimental intervention study involving 800 students from schools in western Kenya that will be cluster-randomised into intervention and control units. Main Outcome: abortion-stigma. Secondary outcome: contraceptive use. Outcome measured by using the validated SABA-scale before and after intervention and comparing intervention and control schools. Analyses: Qualitative content analysis and repeated measures ANOVA (PASW). Projektet är en vidareutveckling av ett VR-finansierat kapacitetsuppbyggnadsprojekt (2013-2016) och inkluderar nya samarbetspartners, som Universitet i Nairobi och International Pregnancy Advisory Services (Ipas). Redan beviljade medel från Forte (COFASMarie Curie-STYB-2016/0002), avser att i första hand täcka den sökandes lön (30 månader) och omkostnader för permanent boende i Kenya under projekttiden samt 1 resa per år till Sverige. För att kunna driva projektet i enlighet med den initiala forskningsplanen saknas finansiering för projektomkostnader som framförallt handlar om samverkan och kapacitetsuppbyggnad. Syfte: I) att undersöka förekomsten av abort- och preventivsmedelsrelaterad stigma bland sjukvårdspersonal vid ungdomsmottagningar och bland gymnasielärare och elever, i ett slumområde i Västra Kenya med hög mödradödlighet, och II) att utvärdera om en skolbaserad utbildningsinsats minskar stigma relaterat till abort och preventivmedel samt ökar preventivmedelsanvändningen bland gymnasieelever (14-18 år). Design, genomförande, deltagare: I) Fokusgruppdiskussioner och II) Intervention bestående av ett 2 månaders utbildningsprogram (4x120 min) som syftar till att minska abort- och preventivmedelsstigma, förändra traditionella könsrollsmönster samt minska diskriminering och uteslutning av kvinnor som genomgått abort. För att med säkerhet kunna avgöra om interventionen har effekt ges interventionen till 400 elever vid en skola, och 400 studenter vid en annan skola utgör kontroller. Skolorna väljs slumpmässigt men matchas utifrån områdets karaktär och skolornas akademiska standard. Effekten mäts med hjälp av SABAS. Primärt utfall: Abortstigma (25% minskning av totalpoängen på SABA-skalan). Sekundära utfall: Preventivmedelsanvändning. Både primärt och sekundärt utfall mäts före samt 6 och 12 månader efter utbildningsinsatsen med hjälp av SABA-skalan. Analyser: Kvalitativ innehållsanalys och variansanalys för upprepade mätningar, med ANOVA (PASW 21.0). Praktisk och akademisk kapacitetsuppbyggnad för långsiktig och hållbar utveckling: Regionen karaktäriseras av låg preventivmedelsanvändning, hög förekomst av osäkra aborter och hög mödradödlighet. Tidigare samarbetsprojekt mellan Karolinska institutet, Kisumu Medical Education Trust (KMET) och Moi University, Eldoret i Kenya, har lett till nya arbetsmetoder avseende Post Abortion Care (PAC) och har stärkt långsiktiga och hållbara samarbeten i regionen. Genom det här projektet har arbetet tagits ett steg vidare och inkluderar nu Ipas, som bedriver arbete i Kenya och är ledande inom internationell forskning om stigma relaterad till abort. Stigma är en del av orsakerna bakom orsakerna till osäkra aborter. Därtill har vi etablerat kontakt med aktörer i ledande position (medsökande i projektet) vid Nairobis Universitet som har barnmorskeprogram och läkarutbildning, där vi avser att implementera resultat från denna studie och från tidigare/pågående VR-finansierad forskning i regionen. Projektet inkluderar Kenyanska studenter på avancerad nivå; PhD (1), Post doktor (1) och Masters (2) - akademisk kapacitetsuppbyggnad för att säkerställa kompetens och långsiktighet implementering av metoder i regionen som förebygger oönskad graviditet, osäkra aborter, och relaterad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet.

In Nepal, such diseases account for 60% of all deaths; 22% of these from cardiovascular diseases. We therefore focus on cardiovascular health promoting strategies in Nepal and use this research for capacity building in both Sweden and Nepal. HOW: We will 1) support research initiatives by developing, implementing and assessing the effectiveness and feasibility of a health educational intervention for cardiovascular health focusing on healthy diet and physical activity aimed at mothers with children aged 1-7 years; and 2) strengthen research and research training in Nepal trough capacity building by exchanging teachers/researchers, students as well as library staff. WHY/SIGNIFICANCE: We contribute with new scientific knowledge and establish new research ties in health promotion. Nepal provides an environment, where a mother-centred health educational intervention can be tested in an excellent case-control setting that could not likewise be achieved in Sweden. Moreover, despite cultural and economic differences, potential positive results can be cautiously generalized to Sweden and hence, provide support for testing this innovative health educational approach there, too. Moreover, the expertise of the Swedish members of the team can be integrated into the development of research training in Nepal and can strengthen local research infrastructure and research training. Mödrars betydelse för att främja hjärt-kärlhälsa. Ett tvärvetenskapligt forskningssamarbete mellan Sverige och Nepal för nätverks- och kompetensbyggande. En tvärvetenskaplig forskargrupp av nepalesiska och svenska forskare bygger nätverk för forskning kring hjärt- kärlsjukdom i Nepal, ett högaktuellt forskningsområde som relaterar till samhälls- och livsstilsförändringar. Många låg- och medelinkomstländer genomgår idag stora förändringar i sina samhällsstrukturer på ländernas väg mot att bli allt mer industrialiserade. Människor flyttar i hög grad från landsbygden till storstäderna för att söka arbete och bättre levnadsvillkor. Detta kan leda till en ändrad livsstil, med mer stillasittande liv och en kost som innehåller ökad mängd socker och fett. Dessa livsstilsförändringar leder till att sjukdomar som hjärt-kärlsjukdomar ökar. Hjärt-kärlsjukdomar är numera en av de främsta dödsorsakerna även i låg-inkomstländer som Nepal, där trenden även visar en ökning av riskfaktorer och en begränsad kunskap hos befolkningen vad gäller dessa sjukdomar. Grunden för hjärt-kärlsjukdomar läggs i tidig ålder och sjukdomen behöver många år för att utvecklas och bli synlig. Även barn är därmed i riskzonen och föräldrarna får en viktig roll. Att via föräldrarna stödja barnen i en hälsosam livsstil är ett första steg att främja hälsa och därmed förhindra ohälsa i form av framtida hjärt-kärlsjukdomar. I det nepalesiska samhället är mammorna ansvariga för familjens kosthållning och sina barns vardag. Därför har vi valt att fokusera på mammorna. I vårt tvärvetenskapliga projekt vill vi 1) stödja forskningsinitiativ som handlar om att utveckla, genomföra och utvärdera hur effektiv en hälsoutbildningsinsats för hjärt-kärl hälsa och fysisk aktivitet. Denna kommer att vara riktad till mödrar med barn i åldrarna 1-7 år; 2) Stödja och stärka kapaciteten i forskning och forskarutbildning i Nepal genom utbyte av lärare/forskare, studenter och bibliotekspersonal genom att etablera en forskningsplattform som använder hjärt-kärlsjukdom som forskningsplattform. Den stora synergieffekten av detta samarbete mellan Sverige och Nepal är att det skapar en excellent forskningsmiljö där hälsoutbildningen kan provas i en unik fall-kontroll situation som inte är möjlig i det svenska samhället. Trots stora kulturella och ekonomiska skillnader mellan länderna kan de möjliga positiva resultat med viss försiktighet även överföras till Sverige, t ex till olika migrantgrupper och hälsoutbildningen kan därmed utprovas även här. Svenska studenter och forskare får en unik möjlighet att delta i forskning som inte är möjlig i Sverige och att få ett kulturellt och intellektuellt utbyte med sina nepalesiska kollegor. Vidare kan svenska lärares/forskares och bibliotekspersonalens kunskap bidra till utvecklingen av forskarutbildningen i Nepal, vilken i dagsläget inte förekommer i organiserad form och till vars utveckling vi i detta forskningsprojekt kommer att bidra. Studenter kommer genomgående att handledas gemensamt av både svenska och nepalesiska forskare, vilket ökar det vetenskapliga utbytet och bidrar till omfattande lärande. Projektet är således av ömsesidigt vetenskapligt intresse och bidrar till ökad vetenskaplig kunskap och utveckling i både Nepal och Sverige. Vi kommer att inrikta oss på hjärt-kärlsjukdom som forskningsplattform för vårt nätverks- och kompetensbyggande och kommer därmed även att öka kunskapen vilka faktorer som via mammorna skulle kunna bidra positivt till barnens framtida hjärt-kärlhälsa i Nepal, ett land som genomgår stora livsstilsförändringar under sin pågående modernisering.

Den globala barnadödligheten har minskat under senaste åren, men fortfarande dör varje år sju miljoner barn under fem år, de flesta av dem av behandlingsbara infektionssjukdomar som lunginflammation, diarré och malaria. Majoriteten dödsfall sker i Afrika söder om Sahara. Basen i omhändertagandet av barn med akut febersjukdom är behandling med antibiotika och antimalarialäkemedel. Terapi som syftar till att understödja basala vitalfunktioner har däremot fått mindre fokus och är många gånger påtagligt eftersatt. Lågt blodsocker är förenat med sämre prognos vid en akut infektion men symptomen är ofta diffusa och därmed svåra att diagnostisera. Man vet att dödligheten är hög hos barn med blodsockernivåer under det av världshälsoorganisationen definierade gränsvärdet. Det finns nu ett antal studier som också pekar på en ökad dödlighet bland barn med blodsockervärden som i nuläget räknas som inom det normala referensintervallet. I detta forskningssamarbete mellan barnavdelningen på University of Malawi och Karolinska Institutets Health System and Policy grupp ifrågasätter vi den etablerade gränsen för lågt blodsocker. Vi vill samtidigt hitta förklaringar till varför en del barn har lågt eller lågt normalt blodsocker när de läggs in på sjukhus med en infektionssjukdom. Det normala fysiologiska svaret på en infektion är att kroppen släpper ut stresshormonet kortisol som verkar genom att höja blodsockret. Orsakerna till att detta inte alltid fungerar, och att en del barn istället uppvisar en blodsockernivå som är lägre än det normala, är inte kända. Kanske beror det på att barn i resursfattiga länder söker sent i sjukdomsförloppet och därmed inte längre "orkar" producera stresshormon, eller så beror det på att det läggs föga fokus på energitillförsel hos sjuka barn. Det kan också vara så att barns kroppar reagerar på infektioner på ett annorlunda sätt än vuxna, något som en del studier från höginkomstländer redan indikerat. Vi kommer att studera barn mellan två månader och 13 års ålder som läggs in på sjukhus med en akut infektion på sjukhus i Blantyre, Malawi. Blodsockervärdet kommer att mätas vid ankomsten. Hälften av barnen kommer att få extra sockerlösning vid inläggningen redan om deras blodsocker är måttligt sänkt, medan hälften kommer att behandlas enligt rådande riktlinjer, alltså ges sockerlösning vid en lägre blodsockernivå. Sockertillförsel och blodsockermätning kommer att fortgår över behandlingstiden och som mest intensivt under första dygnet. För de tusen första patienterna i studien kommer vi att ta ytterligare prover vid ankomsten till sjukhuset för att få bättre förståelse för orsaker till olika blodsockernivåer i akuta infektioner. Vi kommer att ta blodprov för stresshormonet kortisol och hormonet insulin, som hjälper till att minska höga nivåer av socker i blodet. Vi kommer också att mäta socker och en viss typ av syror, som ökar när man svälter och ibland också vid infektion. Sen kommer vi att följa sjukdomens utveckling under tiden på sjukhuset. Vi kan sedan jämföra hur olika nivåer av hormon, syror och socker påverkar barnens tillfrisknande. Intervjuer med föräldrarna kommer att bidra till att ge en tidsuppfattning till sjukdomen, om barnet varit sjukt länge eller inte, och om det har fått i sig näring och energi under sjukdomstiden. Vi kan också jämföra om vissa infektioner innebär en större risk för att utveckla lågt blodsocker jämfört med andra.

However, it has relatively low nutritional quality having dire implications for millions of people dependent on this staple crop. Particularly problematic is the low ß-carotene level, which can lead to provitamin A deficiency with severe health and economic consequences, including early mortality, impaired physical ability and blindness. Efforts to breed for varieties with increased b-carotene have therefore been undertaken, but is difficult to combine with high starch content, which is a vital trait for farmers's acceptance and the market value. Here we propose a new exploratory approach by cross-species comparative genomics and molecular network analysis in combination with functional testing by genetic transformation and the emerging technique of genome editing. We do this by generating transcript, smallRNA and metabolite data of specific varieties with different genetic background and ß-carotene content to identify new candidate genes and key enzymes leading to increased ß-carotene levels and sustained starch content. We will also identify molecular signatures associated to these traits to screen existing germplasms for more lines to be incorporated in breeding programs. The findings will serve either for marker assisted breeding or as engineering approach by gene-editing to overcome possible constrains in traditional breeding. Kassava är en av de viktigaste livsmedels- och fodergrödorna i tropikerna och Afrika står för mer än hälften av den totala världsproduktionen. Denna gröda intar en särskilt viktig roll i livsmedelsförsörjningen för miljontals småbrukare i utvecklingsländer tack vare dess enastående tolerans mot torka och förmåga att växa i magra jordar. Den kan dessutom skördas efter behov, eftersom den växer över mer än ett år. Dess tålighet gör att den är rustad inför framtida klimatförändringar. Men tyvärr har kassavan som livsmedel en stor nackdel: näringsinnehållet. För även om kassava producerar mycket kalorier är den relativt näringsfattig. Särskilt problematisk är den låga halten av provitamin A. För litet intag av detta ämne har flera allvarliga konsekvenser, såväl vad gäller ekonomi som hälsa - bland annat tidig dödlighet och minskad fysisk kapacitet. Det kan också leda till irreversibel blindhet hos barn. I Afrika har hela 43 % av förskolebarnen kliniska symptom på provitamin A-brist. Det är de vita rötterna som utgör den ätliga delen hos de flesta kassavasorterna som odlas och konsumeras, och dessa innehåller försumbara mängder provitamin A. Som tur är finns det en stor genetisk variation inom grödan, och vissa sorter har en hög karotenoidhalt, som är den grupp av ämnen i vilken just provitamin A ingår. Flera andra av karotenoiderna är viktiga för människans hälsa. Den naturliga genetiska mångfalden hos kassava är alltså hög, men att förbättra karotenoidhalten genom att testa olika korsningar är en mycket tidskrävande och dyr process, eftersom växtcykeln mellan generationer kan vara hela två år. För att öka effektiviteten i urvalet vid förädling är det därför nödvändigt att förstå den genetiska grunden för varierande karotenoidhalt. I detta projekt, som är ett samarbete mellan Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet och International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA, med huvudkontor i Ibadan, Nigeria), vill vi bättre förstå hur provitamin A produceras i kassava, för att med denna kunskap effektivare och snabbare kunna ta fram sorter som har högre halt av detta för människan så viktiga ämne. Vi gör detta på flera sätt. Till att börja med vill vi tillämpa ett nytt bioinformatiskt tillvägångsätt, där vi använder oss av genexpressionsdata och gör en jämförelse mot potatis. Vi har valt potatisen eftersom den liksom kassava har ett kartlagt genom, båda har en knölstruktur som producerar delarna som äts samt för att potatisen är välstuderad när det gäller provitamin A-produktion. Tack vare dessa likheter kan vi konstruera molekylära genexpressionsnätverk mellan de två grödorna och på så sätt identifiera nya gener och enzymer som påverkar provitamin A-halten. Detta enligt principen att genexpressionen för vissa processer är evolutionärt bevarad mellan olika växter. Från detta kommer vi få en lista på nya kandidatgener för högre produktion av provitamin A. Ett urval av dessa gener kommer sedan att testas vidare genom att utryckas i potatis med hjälp av genetisk modifiering eftersom det är lättare att göra i potatis än kassava. För att se om genen är viktig i provitamin A-produktion kommer vi efter modifieringen undersöka om halten ökat. Vi kan dessutom screena den stora samlingen av kassavalinjer för att identifiera vilka linjer som bär och uttrycker på de nödvändiga generna för att få en hög provitamin A-halt. Sådana kassavalinjer utgör ett bra korsningsmaterial till redan pågående förädlingsprogram som syftar till att förbättra näringsinnehållet. Parallellt vill vi dessutom testa och utveckla den nya CRISPR/Cas9-metoden för riktade förändringar i kassavans arvsmassa. Vi har redan identifierat ett antal enzym vars aktivitet har betydelse för Provitamin A-produktion. Deras effektivitet kan med denna teknik antingen förstärkas eller försvagas genom att vissa baspar i dem byts ut med hjälp av CRISPR/Cas9. Vi hoppas på detta sätt kunna producera några linjer och testa deras innehåll av Provitamin A.

Detta enligt principen att genexpressionen för vissa processer är evolutionärt bevarad mellan olika växter. Från detta kommer vi få en lista på nya kandidatgener för högre produktion av provitamin A. Ett urval av dessa gener kommer sedan att testas vidare genom att utryckas i potatis med hjälp av genetisk modifiering eftersom det är lättare att göra i potatis än kassava. För att se om genen är viktig i provitamin A-produktion kommer vi efter modifieringen undersöka om halten ökat. Vi kan dessutom screena den stora samlingen av kassavalinjer för att identifiera vilka linjer som bär och uttrycker på de nödvändiga generna för att få en hög provitamin A-halt. Sådana kassavalinjer utgör ett bra korsningsmaterial till redan pågående förädlingsprogram som syftar till att förbättra näringsinnehållet. Parallellt vill vi dessutom testa och utveckla den nya CRISPR/Cas9-metoden för riktade förändringar i kassavans arvsmassa. Vi har redan identifierat ett antal enzym vars aktivitet har betydelse för Provitamin A-produktion. Deras effektivitet kan med denna teknik antingen förstärkas eller försvagas genom att vissa baspar i dem byts ut med hjälp av CRISPR/Cas9. Vi hoppas på detta sätt kunna producera några linjer och testa deras innehåll av Provitamin A.

However, it has relatively low nutritional quality having dire implications for millions of people dependent on this staple crop. Particularly problematic is the low ß-carotene level, which can lead to provitamin A deficiency with severe health and economic consequences, including early mortality, impaired physical ability and blindness. Efforts to breed for varieties with increased b-carotene have therefore been undertaken, but is difficult to combine with high starch content, which is a vital trait for farmers's acceptance and the market value. Here we propose a new exploratory approach by cross-species comparative genomics and molecular network analysis in combination with functional testing by genetic transformation and the emerging technique of genome editing. We do this by generating transcript, smallRNA and metabolite data of specific varieties with different genetic background and ß-carotene content to identify new candidate genes and key enzymes leading to increased ß-carotene levels and sustained starch content. We will also identify molecular signatures associated to these traits to screen existing germplasms for more lines to be incorporated in breeding programs. The findings will serve either for marker assisted breeding or as engineering approach by gene-editing to overcome possible constrains in traditional breeding. Kassava är en av de viktigaste livsmedels- och fodergrödorna i tropikerna och Afrika står för mer än hälften av den totala världsproduktionen. Denna gröda intar en särskilt viktig roll i livsmedelsförsörjningen för miljontals småbrukare i utvecklingsländer tack vare dess enastående tolerans mot torka och förmåga att växa i magra jordar. Den kan dessutom skördas efter behov, eftersom den växer över mer än ett år. Dess tålighet gör att den är rustad inför framtida klimatförändringar. Men tyvärr har kassavan som livsmedel en stor nackdel: näringsinnehållet. För även om kassava producerar mycket kalorier är den relativt näringsfattig. Särskilt problematisk är den låga halten av provitamin A. För litet intag av detta ämne har flera allvarliga konsekvenser, såväl vad gäller ekonomi som hälsa - bland annat tidig dödlighet och minskad fysisk kapacitet. Det kan också leda till irreversibel blindhet hos barn. I Afrika har hela 43 % av förskolebarnen kliniska symptom på provitamin A-brist. Det är de vita rötterna som utgör den ätliga delen hos de flesta kassavasorterna som odlas och konsumeras, och dessa innehåller försumbara mängder provitamin A. Som tur är finns det en stor genetisk variation inom grödan, och vissa sorter har en hög karotenoidhalt, som är den grupp av ämnen i vilken just provitamin A ingår. Flera andra av karotenoiderna är viktiga för människans hälsa. Den naturliga genetiska mångfalden hos kassava är alltså hög, men att förbättra karotenoidhalten genom att testa olika korsningar är en mycket tidskrävande och dyr process, eftersom växtcykeln mellan generationer kan vara hela två år. För att öka effektiviteten i urvalet vid förädling är det därför nödvändigt att förstå den genetiska grunden för varierande karotenoidhalt. I detta projekt, som är ett samarbete mellan Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet och International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA, med huvudkontor i Ibadan, Nigeria), vill vi bättre förstå hur provitamin A produceras i kassava, för att med denna kunskap effektivare och snabbare kunna ta fram sorter som har högre halt av detta för människan så viktiga ämne.

Ticks are the most important vectors of disease-causing pathogens in domestic and wild animals. Tick-borne diseases (TBDs) are a major threat to both cattle and human health. Understanding the complex interactions within the microbiome is of great importance for understanding how tick borne pathogens spread and cause disease.

Boskapshållning är en viktig försörjningsstrategi för fattiga människor på landsbygden i många Afrikanska länder. Att äga boskap innebär en ekonomisk trygghet och en säkerhet mot att falla i djupare fattigdom om t.ex. skörden slår fel. Fästingar och fästingburna sjukdomar är dock ett stort hot mot både nötkreatur och människors hälsa. Det huvudsakliga syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka den mikrobiella sammansättningen (mikrobiotan) hos fästingar och hur detta påverkar smittöverföring och sjukdomsutveckling hos nötkreatur i Uganda. Hypotesen är att mikroorganismer som virus, bakterier och parasiter samverkar i större utsträckning än vad vi hittills trott och att en kombination av en viss sorts mikrober t.ex. skulle kunna orsaka en mer allvarlig sjukdom. Väldigt lite är för tillfället känt inom detta område. Detta projekt kommer att kartlägga vilka sjukdomsorsakande mikrober som finns bland fästingar samt vilka av dem som sprids till nötkreatur. Vi kommer att studera två ekonomiskt och socialt viktiga sorter av östafrikanska inhemska nötkreatur, Ankole long horn och Zebu ko (Bos indicus), samt de fästingarter som finns i dess närhet och suger blod från dem. Fästingarnas mikrobiota kommer att analyseras med hjälp av storskalig sekvensering (metagenomik). Det innebär att vi kommer att kunna ta reda på den totala sammansättningen av olika mikroorganismer i provet. Till vår hjälp för att analysera de enorma mängder med information som vi får fram kommer vi att använda oss av datorprogram och databaser som skapas just för detta syfte. Våra resultat kommer att ge oss kunskaper om vilka sjukdomsframkallande mikrober som finns bland inhemska nötkreatur i Uganda och fästingar i dess närhet. Dessa resultat kan användas för att utveckla diagnostiska test. Genom snabb och korrekt diagnostisk kan rätt behandling snabbt påbörjas, och därmed minskas smittspridningen. Förbättrad hälsa hos boskap kan ge ökad produktion och minskad dödlighet. De pågående klimatförändringarna leder till att det oftare uppstår extrema händelser som t.ex. torka, översvämningar och utbrott och spridning av djursjukdomar. Dessa händelser drabbar de fattigaste värst då de ofta lever i mer utsatta områden, och lever på små marginaler. Då dessa förändringar inte är något som kommer att avta inom den närmsta framtiden är det viktigt att hitta sätt för fattiga småbrukare att förstärka sina möjligheter att motstå tillfälliga chocker, liksom att anpassa sig till långsiktiga förändringar. De inhemska nötkreatur som studeras i detta projekt har utvecklat förmågan att leva under svåra omständigheter och klarar sig ovanligt bra mot sjukdomar. Investeringar i dessa arter är därför bra exempel på anpassningsåtgärder. Tyvärr är dessa arter för tillfället hotade av utrotning då det har blivit mycket populärt att ha andra sorters nötkreatur och även att blanda inhemska djur med exotiska sorter. Detta riskerar att skapa en stor sårbarhet mot såväl extrema väderhändelser som sjukdomar, samt en minska biologisk mångfald och en stor förlust av kulturella värden. Ett delmål med studien är att bidra med kunskap om hur boskapsägare förstår sambanden mellan fästingar, kor och sjukdomar. Genom att intervjua boskapsägare kommer vi att få en ökad förståelse för deras förståelse av fästingar och sjukdomar orsakade av fästingar, samt vilka utmaningar som boskapsskötarna möter i djurhållningen. Den kunskap som genereras i detta projekt kan bidra till mer lämpligt utformade insatser för fästing- och sjukdomsbehandling, som tar hänsyn till, och arbetar med snarare än emot boskapsägarnas kunskaper och metoder.

The collaboration has two components; a course in complex interventions and two research studies focusing on children and adolescents living with HIV in Ethiopia. The project will build on an integrative synthesis of previous and ongoing research projects using a framework for complex interventions. The training will focus on translating knowledge and skills from well experienced Swedish and Ethiopian scholars to different collaboration projects building on the fruitful collaborations between Lund University and Addis Ababa University but include additional universities in Ethiopia and Iceland. The course will be delivered in workshops and seminars, alternating between Swedish and Ethiopian institutions and thereby forming a knowledge translation between different contexts in both countries. Two complex interventions will proceed during the three- year period; the effectiveness of interactive text messaging in improving compliance to care among children and adolescents receiving HIV treatment. The collaboration includes competences from three countries including a wide range of scientific disciplines and will result in 6-12 collaborating research projects that will enhance the possibilities for a mutual multi-scientific long-term collaboration in research for improving children's and adolescents' health in low income countries. Långvarig sjukdom hos barn och unga innebär komplexa utmaningar vilket ställer krav på tvärvetenskapliga perspektiv och samarbeten mellan olika professioner. Syftet med vårt forskningssamarbete är att utveckla och utvärdera modeller för komplexa interventioner med målet att främja hälsa och välmående bland barn och ungdomar i utvecklingsländer. Samarbetet omfattar kompetens från tre universitet i tre länder och inkluderar omvårdnad, medicin, epidemiologi, datavetenskap, etnografi, global hälsa och sociologi. Genom att använda olika forskningsmetoder skapas en fördjupad förståelse för den övergripande forskningsfrågan. Medical Research Council (MRC) ramverk beskriver forskningsprocessens olika faser från utveckling, där en modell av en komplex intervention utvecklas till de följande faserna där interventionen testas avseende genomförbarhet, evalueras och slutligen implementeras. Socioekonomiska, politiska och kulturella faktorer måste övervägas och inkluderas vilket betyder att interventioner som visat sig vara effektiva i utvecklade länder, inte är det i utvecklingsländer. Samarbetet omfattar dels en kurs i komplexa interventioner och dels två forskningsprojekt med barn och ungdomar med HIV. De två samordnade studierna följer MRCs ramverk för utveckling av komplexa interventioner och är en integrerad sammanställning av tidigare och pågående forskning. Genom vår forskning i Sverige och i Etiopien har vi identifierat problem som innebär att för att kunna möta patienters framtida behov behöver kunskapen inom den kliniska verksamheten anpassas och vidgas för att kunna kommunicera vård på ett effektivt sätt. Våra forskningsresultat har fått internationellt erkännande och bedöms som relevant och viktigt också för familjer i låginkomstländer. Sjukvårdssystem med inadekvat koordination, uppföljning och kontinuitet i vården är särskilt kontraproduktiv. Samarbetet innebär att en kurs i komplexa interventioner genomförs. Kursledare representerar sjuksköterskor och läkare från Lunds universitet och Addis Ababa University. Kursdeltagare representerar olika professioner och olika lärosäten i Etiopien. Kursen genomförs under åren 2017-2018 och innebär att kursdeltagarna gör sin egen forskningsplan som involverar dels en komplex intervention och dels barn och/eller unga med eller med risk för långvarig sjukdom. Projektplanerna examineras 2018 och under 2019 hålls workshops och seminarium i att skriva forskningsansökningar. Genom årliga resor till respektive land kommer projektet att bidra till kunskapsutbyte avseende att utveckla, utvärdera och implementera komplexa interventioner och därmed främja hälsa för barn och unga med kronisk sjukdom. Samarbetet kommer att leda till 6-12 utarbetade forskningsplaner för barn och unga som lever i utvecklingsländer. Det kommer också att leda till publikationer under tre-års perioden med deltagare från båda länderna avseende studieprotokoll och således flera vetenskapliga publikationer redan innan studierna startat och fler när de planerade studierna startat och pågår. Parallellt med kursen och baserad på MRCs ramverk testas och utvärderas två komplexa interventioner avseende genomförbarhet och effektivitet på tio kliniker i Etiopien. Interaktiva och interdisciplinära metoder används för att involvera olika aktörer i processen med intressen i verksamheten såväl som föräldrar, barn, och olika hälso- och sjukvårdsprofessioner.

The collaboration has two components; a course in complex interventions and two research studies focusing on children and adolescents living with HIV in Ethiopia. The project will build on an integrative synthesis of previous and ongoing research projects using a framework for complex interventions. The training will focus on translating knowledge and skills from well experienced Swedish and Ethiopian scholars to different collaboration projects building on the fruitful collaborations between Lund University and Addis Ababa University but include additional universities in Ethiopia and Iceland. The course will be delivered in workshops and seminars, alternating between Swedish and Ethiopian institutions and thereby forming a knowledge translation between different contexts in both countries. Two complex interventions will proceed during the three- year period; the effectiveness of interactive text messaging in improving compliance to care among children and adolescents receiving HIV treatment. The collaboration includes competences from three countries including a wide range of scientific disciplines and will result in 6-12 collaborating research projects that will enhance the possibilities for a mutual multi-scientific long-term collaboration in research for improving children's and adolescents' health in low income countries. Långvarig sjukdom hos barn och unga innebär komplexa utmaningar vilket ställer krav på tvärvetenskapliga perspektiv och samarbeten mellan olika professioner. Syftet med vårt forskningssamarbete är att utveckla och utvärdera modeller för komplexa interventioner med målet att främja hälsa och välmående bland barn och ungdomar i utvecklingsländer. Samarbetet omfattar kompetens från tre universitet i tre länder och inkluderar omvårdnad, medicin, epidemiologi, datavetenskap, etnografi, global hälsa och sociologi. Genom att använda olika forskningsmetoder skapas en fördjupad förståelse för den övergripande forskningsfrågan. Medical Research Council (MRC) ramverk beskriver forskningsprocessens olika faser från utveckling, där en modell av en komplex intervention utvecklas till de följande faserna där interventionen testas avseende genomförbarhet, evalueras och slutligen implementeras. Socioekonomiska, politiska och kulturella faktorer måste övervägas och inkluderas vilket betyder att interventioner som visat sig vara effektiva i utvecklade länder, inte är det i utvecklingsländer. Samarbetet omfattar dels en kurs i komplexa interventioner och dels två forskningsprojekt med barn och ungdomar med HIV. De två samordnade studierna följer MRCs ramverk för utveckling av komplexa interventioner och är en integrerad sammanställning av tidigare och pågående forskning. Genom vår forskning i Sverige och i Etiopien har vi identifierat problem som innebär att för att kunna möta patienters framtida behov behöver kunskapen inom den kliniska verksamheten anpassas och vidgas för att kunna kommunicera vård på ett effektivt sätt. Våra forskningsresultat har fått internationellt erkännande och bedöms som relevant och viktigt också för familjer i låginkomstländer. Sjukvårdssystem med inadekvat koordination, uppföljning och kontinuitet i vården är särskilt kontraproduktiv. Samarbetet innebär att en kurs i komplexa interventioner genomförs. Kursledare representerar sjuksköterskor och läkare från Lunds universitet och Addis Ababa University. Kursdeltagare representerar olika professioner och olika lärosäten i Etiopien. Kursen genomförs under åren 2017-2018 och innebär att kursdeltagarna gör sin egen forskningsplan som involverar dels en komplex intervention och dels barn och/eller unga med eller med risk för långvarig sjukdom. Projektplanerna examineras 2018 och under 2019 hålls workshops och seminarium i att skriva forskningsansökningar. Genom årliga resor till respektive land kommer projektet att bidra till kunskapsutbyte avseende att utveckla, utvärdera och implementera komplexa interventioner och därmed främja hälsa för barn och unga med kronisk sjukdom. Samarbetet kommer att leda till 6-12 utarbetade forskningsplaner för barn och unga som lever i utvecklingsländer. Det kommer också att leda till publikationer under tre-års perioden med deltagare från båda länderna avseende studieprotokoll och således flera vetenskapliga publikationer redan innan studierna startat och fler när de planerade studierna startat och pågår. Parallellt med kursen och baserad på MRCs ramverk testas och utvärderas två komplexa interventioner avseende genomförbarhet och effektivitet på tio kliniker i Etiopien. Interaktiva och interdisciplinära metoder används för att involvera olika aktörer i processen med intressen i verksamheten såväl som föräldrar, barn, och olika hälso- och sjukvårdsprofessioner.

The project will specifically study the implementation, dissemination and interpretation of Nordic popular education ideas in Kenya and Tanzania, and focus on how these ideas interact with, on one hand, so-called Indigenous Knowledge Systems, and, on the other hand, educational traditions linked to the formal educational system established in the context of European colonization. Research questions are: How do interactions between different knowledge systems and learning traditions influence the design of non-formal and informal adult education for structurally vulnerable groups in contexts marked by a colonial history? Does this kind of interaction between different knowledge systems and learning traditions create new innovative educational ideas? What role do these interactions and innovations play in improving participants' life chances? Two ethnographic case studies will be carried out: one focusing on the folk high school inspired Folk Development Colleges in Tanzania, and the other on agricultural adult education activities linked to the cooperative movement in Kenya. The project involves researchers from Sweden, Tanzania and Kenya and the project is also intended to contribute to the strengthening of the Eastern African research community within the field of adult education Syftet med på projektet är att undersöka hur samspel mellan olika kunskaps- och utbildningstraditioner får betydelse för utformningen av icke-formell utbildningsverksamhet i östra Afrika. Projektets avser specifikt studera spridning, tolkning, implementering av nordiska folkbildningsidéer i Kenya och Tanzania där fokus riktas på dessa idéers samspel med, å ena sidan, så kallade indigenous knowledge systems och med, å andra sidan, utbildningstraditioner kopplade till det formella utbildningssystem som etablerades i samband med europeisk kolonisation. Tre aspekter av detta samspel mellan kunskaps- och utbildningstraditioner kommer att fokuseras: (1) Utbildningsfilosofiska aspekter, hur olika (ut)bildningshistoriska grundtankar relaterar till varandra och hur eventuella korsbefruktningar kan skönjas i samspelet; (2) Kunskapens maktdimensioner, hur relationen mellan kunskapstraditioner kan förstås i termer av hegemonisk kamp mellan olika intressen, där inte minst den globala maktordningens relation till den koloniala historien särskilt beaktas; (3) Deltagarnas perspektiv på verksamheten och dess betydelse för deras livsmöjligheter, där ett särskilt fokus på genus och empowerment anläggs. Genom att empiriskt studera dessa tre aspekter och relatera dem till varandra avser projektet bidra till en förståelse av de komplexa processer som omgärdar spridandet och implementerandet utbildningsidéer utanför det formella utbildningssystemet, något som varit ett centralt drag inte minst i svensk biståndspolitik. Två etnografiska fallstudier kommer att genomföras inom projekt: en med fokus på folkhögskoleinspirerade Folk Development Colleges i Tanzania, och en på jordbruksinriktad vuxenutbildningsverksamhet kopplad till de kooperativa rörelsen i Kenya, med stöd av the Swedish Cooperative Center (We effect / Vi-skogen). Därtill kommer en historisk undersökning göras beträffande spridning av nordiska folkbildningsidéer i Kenya och Tanzania. Vi avser genom projektet kunna svara på frågor som: Vilken betydelse har samspelet mellan olika kunskaps- och utbildningstraditioner för utformningen av icke-formel vuxenutbildning för strukturellt utsatta grupper i ett sammanhang där en kolonial förhistoria ständigt är närvarande? Hur kan vi förstå samspelet utifrån dess möjlighet att skapa innovativa utbildningsidéer, bryta kolonialt präglade maktstrukturer och förbättra deltagarnas livsmöjligheter? Projektet avser därigenom bidra med kunskap om vilka perspektiv som deltagarna (fattiga unga män och kvinnor med låg formell utbildning) har på icke-formell vuxenutbildning som inletts i samarbete med internationella samarbetspartners och hur denna utbildning kommer till nytta i ett vidare livsperspektiv. Dynamiker och dilemman som uppstår i samspelet mellan olika lärandetraditioner kommer kritiskt att granskassas. Därtill avser projekt kunna lokalisera innovativa utbildningstankar som kan tänkas uppstå i mötet mellan olika traditioner, där vi möjligen också kan se framväxten av en mer global och postkolonial förståelse av vad bildning och livslångt lärande kan vara. Projektet kommer att involvera forskare från Sverige, Tanzania och Kenya och avser därigenom bidra till att stärka en pågående uppbyggnad av regionalt baserad forskning inom området vuxenutbildning och livslångt lärande i östra Afrika.

Tre aspekter av detta samspel mellan kunskaps- och utbildningstraditioner kommer att fokuseras: (1) Utbildningsfilosofiska aspekter, hur olika (ut)bildningshistoriska grundtankar relaterar till varandra och hur eventuella korsbefruktningar kan skönjas i samspelet; (2) Kunskapens maktdimensioner, hur relationen mellan kunskapstraditioner kan förstås i termer av hegemonisk kamp mellan olika intressen, där inte minst den globala maktordningens relation till den koloniala historien särskilt beaktas; (3) Deltagarnas perspektiv på verksamheten och dess betydelse för deras livsmöjligheter, där ett särskilt fokus på genus och empowerment anläggs. Genom att empiriskt studera dessa tre aspekter och relatera dem till varandra avser projektet bidra till en förståelse av de komplexa processer som omgärdar spridandet och implementerandet utbildningsidéer utanför det formella utbildningssystemet, något som varit ett centralt drag inte minst i svensk biståndspolitik. Två etnografiska fallstudier kommer att genomföras inom projekt: en med fokus på folkhögskoleinspirerade Folk Development Colleges i Tanzania, och en på jordbruksinriktad vuxenutbildningsverksamhet kopplad till de kooperativa rörelsen i Kenya, med stöd av the Swedish Cooperative Center (We effect / Vi-skogen). Därtill kommer en historisk undersökning göras beträffande spridning av nordiska folkbildningsidéer i Kenya och Tanzania. Vi avser genom projektet kunna svara på frågor som: Vilken betydelse har samspelet mellan olika kunskaps- och utbildningstraditioner för utformningen av icke-formel vuxenutbildning för strukturellt utsatta grupper i ett sammanhang där en kolonial förhistoria ständigt är närvarande? Hur kan vi förstå samspelet utifrån dess möjlighet att skapa innovativa utbildningsidéer, bryta kolonialt präglade maktstrukturer och förbättra deltagarnas livsmöjligheter? Projektet avser därigenom bidra med kunskap om vilka perspektiv som deltagarna (fattiga unga män och kvinnor med låg formell utbildning) har på icke-formell vuxenutbildning som inletts i samarbete med internationella samarbetspartners och hur denna utbildning kommer till nytta i ett vidare livsperspektiv. Dynamiker och dilemman som uppstår i samspelet mellan olika lärandetraditioner kommer kritiskt att granskassas. Därtill avser projekt kunna lokalisera innovativa utbildningstankar som kan tänkas uppstå i mötet mellan olika traditioner, där vi möjligen också kan se framväxten av en mer global och postkolonial förståelse av vad bildning och livslångt lärande kan vara. Projektet kommer att involvera forskare från Sverige, Tanzania och Kenya och avser därigenom bidra till att stärka en pågående uppbyggnad av regionalt baserad forskning inom området vuxenutbildning och livslångt lärande i östra Afrika.

Second, we will identify viable strategies for institution-building within development projects implemented in such contexts. There is urgent need to address the current knowledge gap in how to build good institutions in difficult contexts, in order to achieve development goals. We pay particular attention to the role of local participation as development strategy. It is commonly argued that projects should adopt an approach of local influence and ownership in order to be successful and produce lasting outcomes. However, scattered evidence suggests that in contexts of corruption and clientelism, participation tends to benefit primarily local elites and capture is common. This project suggests that in order to harness the promise of local participation, democratic participation should play a role in the input, decision-making side of the project. When it comes to implementation, the focus should be on impartiality in implementing and enforcing the rules of the organisation. In this four-year project, we will study four strategically selected cases of community electrification in Tanzania. In addition to a substantial number of interviews, we analyse project documentation, make observations in the field and organise group discussions for validating findings. Forskningsprojektet Institutionella utmaningar och strategier för hållbara utvecklingsprojekt undersöker förutsättningar för, och konsekvenser av, strategier för lokalt deltagande i biståndsfinansierade utvecklingsprojekt som genomförs i samhällskontexter med utbredd fattigdom, korruption och låga nivåer av tillit mellan medborgare. Att genomföra framgångsrika utvecklingsprojekt i lokalsamhällen som präglas av dessa institutionella utmaningar kräver särskilda strategier, och demokratiskt deltagande på lokal nivå betraktas av många som en nödvändighet för att bistånd ska vara effektivt och legitimt. Lokalt deltagande ses som både ett mål i sig självt för dess demokratiska värden, samt som ett medel för att få bättre resultat i utvecklingsprojekt. Deltagande förväntas öka medborgarnas förmåga till samarbete kring gemensamma frågor och resurser, samt öka deras förmåga att hålla politiker och tjänstemän juridiskt och politiskt ansvariga. Dock saknas gedigna empiriska belägg för att lokalt deltagande i utvecklingsprojekt verkligen har de förväntade positiva effekterna. Det saknas också tydliga förklaringar kring hur det ska gå till när lokalt deltagande omsätts i förbättrade resultat för utvecklingsprojekt, fattigdomsminskning samt minskad korruption. Tvärtom mot förväntningarna så visar genomgångar av tidigare forskning att lokalt deltagande kan leda till att lokala eliter tar kontroll över biståndsprojekten och de resurser som kommer med dem, för egen vinning. För att lokalt deltagande ska gynna även fattiga och marginaliserade grupper i lokalsamhället så behövs institutionella ramverk som säkerställer att så sker. Projektet hanterar den övergripande frågan kring hur institutionella utmaningar kan hanteras i utvecklingsprojekt på lokal nivå i kontexter med utbredd fattigdom, korruption och låg tillit. Syftet är att bättre förstå de institutionella utmaningarna i lokala utvecklingsprojekt, samt att identifiera vilka strategier - inklusive lokalt deltagande - som framgångsrikt kan bygga välfungerande organisationer med hög institutionell kvalitet i dessa sammanhang, s.k. "institutionsbyggande". Forskningen äger rum i Tanzania i östra Afrika och studerar projekt för småskalig elektrifiering på landsbygden med hjälp av lokala förnybara energikällor. Den använder sig av jämförande fallstudier för att undersöka teoretiska antaganden kring hur strategier för lokalt deltagande hänger samman med institutionsbyggande och frågor kring tillit, trovärdighet och opartisk tillämpning av regelverk. Metoderna för datainsamling inkluderar intervjuer med aktörer inblandade i utvecklingsprojekt, deltagande observation, gruppdiskussioner, analys av satellitbilder för att förstå förändring i lokala ekosystem över tid, och analys av teknisk och projektdokumentation. Att få välfungerande lokal elförsörjning är mycket viktigt för de många människor som fortfarande lever utan tillgång till pålitliga eltjänster till överkomligt pris. I Tanzania är endast 5% av landsbygdsbefolkningen uppkopplad till det statliga fasta nätet. Småskaliga och förnybart baserade elsystem behövs för att nå hela befolkningen inom en rimlig framtid. Tyvärr misslyckas många projekt för småskalig elektrifiering med att uppnå goda resultat. Många elsystem slutar fungera i förtid och lokala elbolag har ofta svårt att få ekonomisk hållbarhet i sin verksamhet. Det finns gott om forskning som undersöker de tekniska och finansiella utmaningarna för lokala elbolag, men väldigt lite forskning som inkluderar institutionella, sociala och politiska faktorer i sin analys. Tidigare forskning har dock identifierat korruption, svaga organisationer och regelverk som allvarliga problem i projekt för landsbygdselektrifiering. Detta projekt fyller igen en viktig kunskapslucka vad avser möjligheten att skapa välfungerande organisationer i utvecklingsprojekt som framgångsrikt levererar välfärdstjänster över tid.

This project focuses on what happens to post-war societies at the moment leaders are arrested, which we suggest threaten former wartime leaders' patronage networks and may provoke a return to violence. We argue that violence is particularly likely to occur when incarcerated leaders have monopolized peacetime flows of patronage to their constituencies. In such situations, arrests are likely to leave clients in need, obliging them to leave the network. To salvage waning networks junior elites have incentives to organize armed attacks to compel the authorities to give them positions in the government or release the detained leader. The study will employ a mixed-method approach; a quantitative study of post-armed conflict arrests in the world (1946 to 2015) will be accompanied by a structured, focused comparison between the incarceration of Slobodan Milosevic (ex-Yugoslavia) and Charles Taylor (Liberia). By combining quantitative evidence with case analysis, this project will provide unique insights into the effect of the socioeconomic, political and military influence that wartime leaders often maintain even in post-conflict societies. The findings will advance scholarship and contribute to policy recommendation about how states can establish accountable and transparent rules and institutions that promote peace, security, and development. Hur man bäst hanterar krigsförbrytare efter inbördeskrig har visat sig vara en nyckelfråga för att lyckas bygga fred. Å ena sidan hävdar viss forskning att amnestier kan vara användbara för att få slut på själva konflikten, medan det å andra sidan är viktigt att utreda krigsbrott för att underlätta försoning och etablera respekt för lag och ordning. En fråga som inte har uppmärksammats av den här litteraturen är vad som händer i postkonfliktländer just vid det tillfälle som före detta krigsherrar grips. Dessa gripanden har ibland lett till våldsamma protester från anhängarna till den anklagade, som till exempel när den före detta jugoslaviske ledaren Slobodan Milosevic greps i april 2001. Detta ledde till skottlossning mellan hans lojalister och polisstyrkor, och det fanns en risk att situationen skulle utvecklas till ett nytt inbördeskrig. Vid andra tillfällen, som när Charles Taylor greps i Liberia i mars 2006, så skedde inte samma våldsamma motreaktion. Vad förklarar denna skillnad? Vi menar att risken för våld i samband med gripandet av före detta krigsherrar beror på vilken politisk och ekonomisk roll de har spelat efter konflikten har avslutats. Det är inte ovanligt att före detta ledare fortsätter att ha inflytande och kontrollera tillgångar i form av politisk makt eller ekonomiska resurser även efter ett fredsavtal. Detta ger dem möjlighet att fördela stöd till sina anhängare vilket gör att informella nätverk - ofta byggda på korruption - som skapats redan under konflikten finns kvar eller växer sig starkare. Vi argumenterar att risken för våld är störst om häktade ledare har monopoliserat fördelningen av ekonomiskt stöd till sitt nätverk. När sådana ledare arresteras riskerar anhängarna att förlora tillgång till de resurser som de ofta är beroende av. För att bevara nätverket intakt, har juniora eliter incitament att organisera våldsamheter för att tvinga myndigheterna att inkludera dem i andra nätverk eller släppa den häktade ledaren. Vi kommer att använda två olika metoder för att undersöka förklaringsvärdet av denna hypotes. Vi kommer först att genomföra en kvantitativ studie som undersöker förekomsten av våld i samband med gripandet av ledare i krigshärjade länder mellan 1946 och 2015. För att kontrollera samband identifierade i den kvantitativa studien, och i mer detalj förstå hur gripanden i vissa fall leder till våldsamheter, kommer vi även att genomföra en komparativ studie som jämför arresteringen av Slobodan Milosevic (f.d. Jugoslavien) och Charles Taylor (Liberia). Material för den komparativa studien kommer att samlas in med hjälp av social nätverksanalys och djupintervjuer med f.d. kombattanter, politiska ledare, journalister och NGO-representanter i Liberia och Serbien. För att resultaten från studien ska göras direkt användbara för svensk utvecklingspolitik, så kommer lärdomar att presenteras både i generella termer och specifikt för att stödja Sveriges roll i byggandet av fred och demokrati i Myanmar. I likhet med Liberia och Serbien efter krigen pågår idag ett intensivt reformarbete av politik och institutioner i Myanmar där frågor hur man ska hantera klientelism och begångna människorättsbrott är mycket känsliga. Genom att anordna seminarier med forskare, civilsamhället, och beslutsfattare i Myanmar där erfarenheter från andra länder diskuteras öppnar vi debatten om dessa frågor i landet samt bidrar med fall-specifika förslag för hur rättvisa och stabil fred kan uppnås.

Vi menar att risken för våld i samband med gripandet av före detta krigsherrar beror på vilken politisk och ekonomisk roll de har spelat efter konflikten har avslutats. Det är inte ovanligt att före detta ledare fortsätter att ha inflytande och kontrollera tillgångar i form av politisk makt eller ekonomiska resurser även efter ett fredsavtal. Detta ger dem möjlighet att fördela stöd till sina anhängare vilket gör att informella nätverk - ofta byggda på korruption - som skapats redan under konflikten finns kvar eller växer sig starkare. Vi argumenterar att risken för våld är störst om häktade ledare har monopoliserat fördelningen av ekonomiskt stöd till sitt nätverk. När sådana ledare arresteras riskerar anhängarna att förlora tillgång till de resurser som de ofta är beroende av. För att bevara nätverket intakt, har juniora eliter incitament att organisera våldsamheter för att tvinga myndigheterna att inkludera dem i andra nätverk eller släppa den häktade ledaren. Vi kommer att använda två olika metoder för att undersöka förklaringsvärdet av denna hypotes. Vi kommer först att genomföra en kvantitativ studie som undersöker förekomsten av våld i samband med gripandet av ledare i krigshärjade länder mellan 1946 och 2015. För att kontrollera samband identifierade i den kvantitativa studien, och i mer detalj förstå hur gripanden i vissa fall leder till våldsamheter, kommer vi även att genomföra en komparativ studie som jämför arresteringen av Slobodan Milosevic (f.d. Jugoslavien) och Charles Taylor (Liberia). Material för den komparativa studien kommer att samlas in med hjälp av social nätverksanalys och djupintervjuer med f.d. kombattanter, politiska ledare, journalister och NGO-representanter i Liberia och Serbien. För att resultaten från studien ska göras direkt användbara för svensk utvecklingspolitik, så kommer lärdomar att presenteras både i generella termer och specifikt för att stödja Sveriges roll i byggandet av fred och demokrati i Myanmar. I likhet med Liberia och Serbien efter krigen pågår idag ett intensivt reformarbete av politik och institutioner i Myanmar där frågor hur man ska hantera klientelism och begångna människorättsbrott är mycket känsliga. Genom att anordna seminarier med forskare, civilsamhället, och beslutsfattare i Myanmar där erfarenheter från andra länder diskuteras öppnar vi debatten om dessa frågor i landet samt bidrar med fall-specifika förslag för hur rättvisa och stabil fred kan uppnås.

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. Vi kommer att utveckla en ny typ av diagnostiskt verktyg för malaria och antibiotikaresistens som tar upp följande biomedicinska frågor som är svåra eller omöjliga att adressera med nuvarande tekniker: läkemedelsresistens, genotypiska varianter och blandinfektioner. Det kommer också att ta upp det akuta behovet av snabb diagnos. Vårt nya verktyg består av en kombination av två nyligen utvecklade metoder. Mobiltelefon-baserad fluorescens mikroskopi kommer att användas för att ersätta dyra fluorescensmikroskop av standardtyp och för att möjliggöra en utbredd användning av vår diagnos-plattform. Fluorescensmikroskop kommer att användas för att direkt visualisera enskilda fluoroscensinmärkta DNA-molekyler sträckta i nanofluidiska kanaler. Eftersom varje molekyl kommer att analyseras för sig, kommer ingen cellodling eller någon DNA-amplifiering vara nödvändig. Arbetet kommer att ske i ett internationellt samarbete. Vi har samarbetspartners vid Glasgow University som är välkända specialister på parasitologi och på Karolinska Institutet som är experter på antibiotikaresistenta bakterieinfektioner. För utvecklingen av mobiltelefon-baserade fluorescensmikroskop kommer vi att samarbeta med en grupp vid UCLA, som är den ledande pionjär inom enkla att använda och billiga alternativ till standard mikroskopi. UCLA gruppen använder kameran och beräkningskapaciteten hos vanliga mobiltelefoner (smartphones) i kombination med djupa insikter i optik och datavetenskap för att skapa mycket kraftfulla mikroskop till mycket låga kostnader. För att säkerställa att vår teknologi kommer att utformas med slutanvändaren i åtanke och senare provas under realistiska förhållanden kommer vi att engagera flera forskare som är stationerade i de drabbade länderna i Afrika och Asien. Vi kommer också att ha ett nära samarbete med andra projekt som täcker den tekniska utvecklingen inom DNA-analys och provberedning. I vårt EU-finansierat projekt LAPASO utvecklar vi enkla inmärkningsfria partikelsorteringssystem för anrikning av patogena mikroorganismer från kliniska prover. Vi har också ett EU-finansierat projekt, BeyondSeq, som fokuserar på DNA-analys med hjälp av nanokanaler tillsammans med provberedning. Vi har alltså ett starkt stöd från andra projekt för grundläggande funktioner i ett system som bygger på direkt visualisering av DNA. När vi har bevisat de grundläggande funktionerna i en kombination av mobiltelefon baserad fluorescensmikroskopi och nanofluidik-baserad direkt visualisering av DNA kommer vi att överföra tekniken till våra samarbetspartners som arbetar direkt med patienter i fattiga områden i världen, i Asien och Afrika. Komplexiteten i våra system kommer successivt att öka. Vi börjar med ett enkelt system där provet bereds och DNA extraheras med användning av standardmetoder. I ett följande steg, när vi har etablerat et helt integrerat "labb på ett chip", inklusive provberedning och DNA-extraktion i våra samtidiga projekt, kommer vi att integrera detta på den mobiltelefon-baserade plattformen och testa den på fältet. Vi förväntar oss att nanokanal-enheten kommer att ge ytterligare funktioner jämfört med dediagnosverktyg som är standard nu. Eftersom DNA analyseras en molekyl i taget, krävs ingen odling. Detta snabbar upp diagnostik dramatiskt och det underlättar diagnostik för organismer som är svåra att eller inte kan odlas. Det gör det också möjligt att identifiera drog-resistens-gener och sällsynta patogenvarianter från en enskild patient, både bitar av information som är viktigt i valet av behandling och som inte finns tillgängliga med nuvarande tekniker. Slutligen ger den nya tekniken oss möjlighet att karakterisera variabilitet av patogener från en enda patient.

Unfortunately, the risk of HIV infection seems to increase with the use of progesterone-based hormonal contraceptives, which is used by more than 50 million women. There is thus an urgent need to determine molecular mechanisms underlying this increased risk and propose therapeutic interventions. The same progesterone-related effect is also seen during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, a phase also associated with higher infection risk. We here hypothesize that local treatment with the sex hormone estrogen can contribute to a more HIV-resistant mucosal genital barrier. Work plan: Samples from the female reproductive tract have been collected from a Kenyan cohort of hormonal contraceptive-using women, and of women during their menstrual cycle. Newly developed digitalized imaging techniques and high-throughput proteomics techniques will be used to analyze mucosal factors associated with progesterone levels. Proof-of-concept experiments assessing progesterone and estrogen for their capacity to reduce HIV replication will thereafter be pursued in a genital mucosal explants model. Relevance: We aim to define mucosal factors influenced by sex hormones and explore whether this knowledge can be translated to a medication that can limit sexual HIV acquisition. Underprivileged women living in HIV-endemic areas with no options of contraceptive alternatives will thereby benefit from these scientific achievements. Syfte: Hiv-epidemin är en av de mest förödande infektionerna i världen. Det har även kommit oroväckande rapporter om att infektionsrisken ökar hos kvinnor som använder en viss typ av preventivmedel: progesteron-baserade preventivmedel som injiceras var tredje månad. Mer än 50 miljoner kvinnor i världen använder sådana preventivmedel idag, varav de flesta bor i HIV-endemiska länder. Av praktiska skäl är det ofta det enda preventivmedel som finns tillgängligt och som antikonception (undvikande av graviditeter) fungerar det utmärkt. Att avstå från användning är således oftast inget alternativ då oönskade graviditeter och barnafödande kan vara ännu mer förödande. Det är nu angeläget att förstå de molekylära mekanismerna som ligger bakom den ökade infektionsrisken och att förstå hur effekten kan undvikas. Samma progesteron-relaterade effekt ses också under den luteala fasen av menstruationscykeln, en fas som även denna har visat sig vara förknippad med högre risk för HIV-infektion. Arbetsplan: Slemhinnesekret och vävnadsprover från de kvinnliga reproduktionsorganen samlas nu in från en kenyansk kohort av kvinnor som använder dessa preventivmedel. Prover samlas även in från en annan grupp av longitudinellt följda kvinnor med syfte att följa sekventiella förändringar under deras menstruationscykel. Nyutvecklade digitaliserade avbildningstekniker och tekniker för att definiera proteininnehållet har standardiserats och utvecklats för att undersöka molekylära förändringar i proverna från de bägge studiegrupperna. Vi ska sedan evaluera dessa fynd i en experimentell modell som består av färska genitalvävnadsprover som tillförs olika könshormoner. Det är då möjligt att mer direkt visa på de molekylära händelseförloppen som har kunnat observeras i experimenten på de kliniska proverna. I den experimentella modellen kan även HIV tillsättas för att se om t.ex. könshormonet östrogen kan ha en skyddande effekt. Relevans: Det yttersta målet med studien är att definiera slemhinnefaktorer som påverkas av könshormoner och undersöka om denna kunskap kan översättas till en produkt som kan begränsa sexuell överföring av HIV. Lokalbehandling med lågdos-östrogen används i klinisk praxis redan idag för kvinnor som lider av genital slemhinneatrofi (skör slemhinna). En sådan behandling skulle kunna kombineras med annan HIV-profylaktisk behandling i lokal form (s.k. mikobicid med antiretrovirala läkemdel som redan evalueras i kliniska studier). Utsatta kvinnor som lever i HIV-endemiska områden utan möjlighet att välja typ av preventivmedel kommer således att kunna ta del av sådan profylaktisk behandling och därmed minska risken för HIV-infektion. De generella kunskaper som kommer att uppnås kommer också vara användbara när framtida kliniska vaccinprövningar behöver följas upp och utvärderas. Sådan kunskap saknas idag då endast ett fåtal studier har beskrivit immunologiska faktorer i genitalslemhinnan hos kvinnor som är utsatta för hög HIV-risk och vilka faktorer som korrelerar till skydd mot smitta.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2016-05762-1 Sweden Aim: HIV still causes a devastating global epidemic. Unfortunately, the risk of HIV infection seems to increase with the use of progesterone-based hormonal contraceptives, which is used by more than 50 million women. There is thus an urgent need to determine molecular mechanisms underlying this increased risk and propose therapeutic interventions. The same progesterone-related effect is also seen during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, a phase also associated with higher infection risk. We here hypothesize that local treatment with the sex hormone estrogen can contribute to a more HIV-resistant mucosal genital barrier. Work plan: Samples from the female reproductive tract have been collected from a Kenyan cohort of hormonal contraceptive-using women, and of women during their menstrual cycle. Newly developed digitalized imaging techniques and high-throughput proteomics techniques will be used to analyze mucosal factors associated with progesterone levels. Proof-of-concept experiments assessing progesterone and estrogen for their capacity to reduce HIV replication will thereafter be pursued in a genital mucosal explants model.

Den vanligaste allmänkirurgiska operationen görs för ljumskbråck och varje år opereras 20 miljoner människor för detta i världen. I rika länder såsom i Sverige använder man ett syntetiskt nät för att stärka upp bukväggen. Detta har lett till att recidiv av ljumskbråcket är mycket ovanligare jämfört med tidigare använda metoder. De syntetiska näten kan kosta uppemot 1000 kr styck och är därför för dyra för patienter i fattigare delar av världen. Tack vare projektbidrag från vetenskapsrådet så har vi genomfört en studie som visar att ett myggnät, vars egenskaper är mycket lika de kommersiella nätens, kan användas istället för dessa vid bråckkirurgi. Detta innebär att människor i fattiga länder också kan opereras med samma goda resultat som i höginkomstländer. I världen lever 220 miljoner människor med bråck. De flesta av dessa lever i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Bristen på kirurger som ska operera dessa patienter är uttalad. På många håll är det istället läkare utan specialistutbildning i kirurgi samt även icke-läkare med viss kirurgisk skolning som utför de allra flesta operationerna. Denna praxis kallas &quot;task sharing&quot; och den äger nästan alltid rum med de lokala myndigheternas goda minne. Det har visat sig fungera väl när det gäller till exempel kejsarsnitt. Vilken nivå av task sharing som kan och bör gälla vid bråckkirurgi med nät är dock inte studerat. I denna studie ska vi därför implementera ett utbildningsprogram där sjukvårdspersonal som redan utför bråckkirurgi ska utbildas i att operera bråck med nät. Fyra länder kommer ingå i studien; Ghana, Sierra Leone, Uganda och Tanzania. I Ghana och Uganda är det kirurger och läkare som opererar bråck, men i Sierra Leone och Tanzania är det även icke-läkare som gör detta. I varje land kommer en lokal samarbetspartner utse individer som ska ingå i träningsprogrammet som kommer omfatta teori men framför allt fokusera på praktisk träning. Specialistkompetenta kirurger från de olika länderna samt från Sverige, Norge och USA kommer dela på ansvaret för att utbilda personal på plats. De som utbildas utvärderas kontinuerligt enligt en särskild mall. När de kan genomföra operationen bra, utvärderat av två olika specialister i kirurgi under två olika operationer, så anses de färdigutbildade. Därefter kan de börja operera de patienter som ingår i studien, totalt 228 i varje land. Patienterna följs sedan upp efter två veckor och efter ett år av blindade läkare som inte var med vid operationen och som inte vet vem som opererat patienten. De utfallsmått som ingår är recidiv av bråcket, postoperativa komplikationer, patientnöjdhet och kostnadseffektivitet. Denna studie är viktig då den undersöker hur en bättre kirurgisk metod för en av de allra vanligaste operationerna, nämligen den för bråckkirurgi kan implementeras i låginkomstmiljöer i Afrika. Den jämför utfall av kirurgi som utförs av olika personalkategorier för att spegla den kliniska praxisen i olika länder. Denna information är nödvändig att känna till innan mer storskaliga insatser för implementation av bråckkirurgi med nät kan genomföras så att de miljontals människor som inte har tillgång till god kirurgi kan få det i framtiden.

There is a great interest to biogas in Indonesia, but a major challenge is the lack of competence about the digestion process. This project is to fund the collaboration between 3 universities including University of Bor&#229;s and Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden and Gadjah Mada University in Indonesia. In addition, 4 other Indonesian universities will be identified to spread the knowledge on biogas in Indonesia, by both workshops and training in Sweden. The project leaders from these universities meet twice a year and synchronize the experimental tasks that will be carried out by one PhD student and ca 10 BSc/MSc students. The scientific goal is to develop rapid digestion for biogas production using 2-stage fermentation, where the 2nd stage uses flocculating bacteria or membrane bioreactors. A traditional digestion need about a month residence time, that is mainly because of extremely low growth rate of methane producing bacteria. In this project, we reduce this retention time by separating hydrolysis and methanogenesis. The solid materials in the slurry is hydrolyzed and dissolved in water in the first reactor. Then, the solid particles and materials are separated and the liquid pass through the second reactor that is filled with flocculating bacteria or entrapped in membranes. We expect the total retention time of the digestion process to be reduced from 30 days to 5 days. Utifrån det hållbara samhällets perspektiv är biogasproduktion baserad på förnyelsebara råvaror en attraktiv energikälla. I Indonesien är biogas producerad av bland annat avfall från fruktindustrin av stort intresse. Dock saknas viss kompetens i landet för att göra processen effektiv och ekonomisk bärkraftig.

Projektet avser att skapa plattformar för samarbete och kompetensutveckling över gränser genom s.k. arbetsmöten och kurser under 3 år. Utifrån denna kompetensutveckling kan sedan forsknings- och utvecklingsprojekt drivas betydligt mer effektivt och målinriktat. Mål för forskningsprojekten är bland annat att med hjälp av flockulerande bakterier och membranreaktorer undvika att befintliga toxiska ämnen påverkar produktionen negativt.

It will be framed on research on how local stakeholders in Mozambique insert their understandings of language into (local) sociopolitical and economic framings, and how negotiated understandings of (specific) language(s), and what it means to teach and learn in them, emerge out of extended, multiplex and situated collaborations between actors at different levels of engagement and implementation. Classroom observations, local narratives and interviews with stakeholders will be used to interrogate these negotiative proccesses between local community members and linguists, material designers,teacher trainers and local and provincial education specialists in the Mozambican province of Gaza. A team of Mozambican postgraduate students, together with the principal researchers, will collect and analyze data to be treated in seminars, workshops and writing retreats. The notion of linguistic citizenship will be used to analyze the intersection between the social, political and economic context of the program and the language educational planning processes. The project will offer alternatives for developing primary educaiton in mother tongue programs that build on the active nurturing of citizenship agencies around language among vulnerable populations. Det är känt att goda färdigheter i modersmålet och tillgång till en flerspråklig repertoar kan utgöra en väsentlg resurs för individers och gruppers gynnsamma deltagande på sociala, politiska och ekonomiska arenor. Det är emellertid också ett faktum att flerspråkighet samtidigt kan utgöra ett hinder för deltagande och fungera som ytterligare en teknologi för att skikta samhällen i förhållande till skillnader i kapital och privilegier. I det sistnämnda fallet, som blir allt vanligare i utvecklingsländer, reproduceras en uppfattning om språk och flerspråkighet som har sina rötter i det koloniala förflutna. I motsats till detta växer sig en alternativ förståelse för modersmålens och flerspråkighhetens potential som kommer ur ett tilltagande lokalt engagemang kring språkfrågor i skolan allt starkare. Detta engagemang inbegripar föräldrar, lärare, lingvister och utbildningsmydigheter. Genom nya praktiker och kritiska förhållningssätt till hur språk bör undervisas utvecklar de berörda värdefulla färdigheter och skaffar sig användbara efarenheter av att hantera lokala politiska, sociala och ekonomiska angelägenheter. Detta sker samtidigt som specifika språkfrågor är i fokus. Förhandlingar om lokala språk- och utbildningsfrågor tjänar m a o som ett forum för utveckling av handlingspotential i breda samhällsfrågor. Dessa alternativa förhållningssätt till språk och flerspråkighet innebär att vi tvingas arbeta kritiskt med de modeller och teorier kring språk och flerspråkighet som vi ärvt via kolonialismens och upplysningstidens ensamrätt på kunskapsteoriska ramverk. Detta är i linje med breda ansatser inom dekolonial teori och den rörelse mot 'southern epistemologies' som vuxit sig allt starkare, främst i Latinamerika och Södra Afrika, under det senaste decenniet. Projektet studerar hur lokala skolor i Gazaprovinsen i Mozambique utarbetar nya former för att implementera en modersmålsbaserad flerspråkig undervisning. Särskilt uppmärksammas hur lokala aktörer som föräldrar, lärare, samt distrikts -och provinsmyndigheter förhandlar om innehållet i utbildningen, samverkar med språkspecialister om relevanta ortografier, ordlistor och grammatiska beskrivningar samt hur dessa beskrivningar kopplas till den dagliga lokala kulturella, politiska och ekonomiska verkligheten. Begreppet språkllgt medborgarskap används för att förstå denna komplexa och mångfacetterade process.

It will be framed on research on how local stakeholders in Mozambique insert their understandings of language into (local) sociopolitical and economic framings, and how negotiated understandings of (specific) language(s), and what it means to teach and learn in them, emerge out of extended, multiplex and situated collaborations between actors at different levels of engagement and implementation. Classroom observations, local narratives and interviews with stakeholders will be used to interrogate these negotiative proccesses between local community members and linguists, material designers,teacher trainers and local and provincial education specialists in the Mozambican province of Gaza. A team of Mozambican postgraduate students, together with the principal researchers, will collect and analyze data to be treated in seminars, workshops and writing retreats. The notion of linguistic citizenship will be used to analyze the intersection between the social, political and economic context of the program and the language educational planning processes. The project will offer alternatives for developing primary educaiton in mother tongue programs that build on the active nurturing of citizenship agencies around language among vulnerable populations. Det är känt att goda färdigheter i modersmålet och tillgång till en flerspråklig repertoar kan utgöra en väsentlg resurs för individers och gruppers gynnsamma deltagande på sociala, politiska och ekonomiska arenor. Det är emellertid också ett faktum att flerspråkighet samtidigt kan utgöra ett hinder för deltagande och fungera som ytterligare en teknologi för att skikta samhällen i förhållande till skillnader i kapital och privilegier. I det sistnämnda fallet, som blir allt vanligare i utvecklingsländer, reproduceras en uppfattning om språk och flerspråkighet som har sina rötter i det koloniala förflutna. I motsats till detta växer sig en alternativ förståelse för modersmålens och flerspråkighhetens potential som kommer ur ett tilltagande lokalt engagemang kring språkfrågor i skolan allt starkare. Detta engagemang inbegripar föräldrar, lärare, lingvister och utbildningsmydigheter. Genom nya praktiker och kritiska förhållningssätt till hur språk bör undervisas utvecklar de berörda värdefulla färdigheter och skaffar sig användbara efarenheter av att hantera lokala politiska, sociala och ekonomiska angelägenheter. Detta sker samtidigt som specifika språkfrågor är i fokus. Förhandlingar om lokala språk- och utbildningsfrågor tjänar m a o som ett forum för utveckling av handlingspotential i breda samhällsfrågor. Dessa alternativa förhållningssätt till språk och flerspråkighet innebär att vi tvingas arbeta kritiskt med de modeller och teorier kring språk och flerspråkighet som vi ärvt via kolonialismens och upplysningstidens ensamrätt på kunskapsteoriska ramverk. Detta är i linje med breda ansatser inom dekolonial teori och den rörelse mot 'southern epistemologies' som vuxit sig allt starkare, främst i Latinamerika och Södra Afrika, under det senaste decenniet. Projektet studerar hur lokala skolor i Gazaprovinsen i Mozambique utarbetar nya former för att implementera en modersmålsbaserad flerspråkig undervisning. Särskilt uppmärksammas hur lokala aktörer som föräldrar, lärare, samt distrikts -och provinsmyndigheter förhandlar om innehållet i utbildningen, samverkar med språkspecialister om relevanta ortografier, ordlistor och grammatiska beskrivningar samt hur dessa beskrivningar kopplas till den dagliga lokala kulturella, politiska och ekonomiska verkligheten. Begreppet språkllgt medborgarskap används för att förstå denna komplexa och mångfacetterade process. Samtidigt som processen studeras, anlitas en bred referensgrupp av specialister i nord och syd med uppgiften att inventera implikationerna av studien för andra kontexter.

Based on a case study of one of the most ambitious large-scale infrastructure initiatives, LAPSSET (the Lamu Port and Southern Sudan-Ethiopia Transport Corridor), the purpose of this project is to provide new insights into the hopes and fears of infrastructure expansion. In contrast to the existing literature on development corridors, this project conceptualizes large infrastructures as socio-technical assemblages that transform places in multiple ways and bring forward issues of citizenship and belonging. The project will empirically explore emerging controversies based on concerns about how the corridor will transform the conditions for resource access and security, as it moves through places that share a history of neglect and marginalization. Based on a research design that entails studies at three different sites along the LAPSSET corridor, and bringing together recent theoretical developments in environmental social science and critical security studies, the project will analyze how the socio-technical assemblages of infrastructure transforms relations of place and sense of belonging through entangled natural resource- and security dynamics. På grund av en stark och kontinuerlig ekonomisk tillväxt och en snabbt växande utvinningsindustri står Afrika söder om Sahara inför en historisk utbyggnad av infrastruktur. Just nu planeras och genomförs 30 så kallade utvecklingskorridorer i Afrika, dvs. storskaliga infrastruktursystem bestående av hamnar, kraftledningar, vägar, flygplatser, järnvägar och jordbrukssatsningar. Förhoppningen med dessa korridorer är att de kommer att möjliggöra ökad nationell och internationell ekonomisk integration. Samtidigt finns det farhågor om att byggandet av den nya storskaliga infrastrukturen ska generera negativa sociala och miljömässiga effekter. En av de mest omfattande utvecklingskorridorerna i Afrika är LAPSSET (Lamu Port Southern Sudan-Ethiopia Transport corridor) somsyftar till att ekonomiskt sammankoppla stora delar av Östra Afrika. Genom att använda LAPSSET som ett viktigt exempel på den pågående utbyggnaden av infrastruktur i södra Afrika, vill det föreslagna forskningsprojektet studera hur planeringen och byggandet av infrastruktur förändrar platser längs LAPSSET korridoren. Dessa förändringar är fysiska och konkreta, men de är också förändringar i sociala relationer, hur man erfar och uppfattar samhället och staten, och hur man identifierar sig och känner samhörighet. Vi kommer att genomföra studien genom att först undersöka hur olika aktörer och intressenter väljer att skapa olika berättelser, diskurser, om LAPSSET. För det andra kommer vi att undersöka hur LAPSSET som idé, berättelse och fysisk förändring leder till kontroverser mellan olika aktörer och grupper i tre mycket olika områden längs korridoren (distrikten Lamu, Isiolo och Turkana). Vi kommer vidare att ta reda på hur dessa kontroverser relaterar till hur den planerade och befintliga infrastrukturen förändrar naturresurstillgång, användning och distribution. Detta är viktigt eftersom många av de lokala samhällena längs korridoren är fattiga och i hög grad beroende av specifika sätt att komma åt och använda naturresurser. Vi kommer också att noga undersöka hur ny infrastruktur påverkar lokala samhällens (o)säkerhet. Detta är viktigt eftersom ett av målen för LAPSSET är att skapa säkerhet i områden som staten tidigare inte har haft kontroll över och som ansetts farliga, samtidigt som staten måste skydda den nya infrastrukturen mot olika hot för att den ska fungera. Projektets ansats till att förstå de spänningar och motsättningar som en storskalig utbyggnad av infrastruktur genererar är innovativ, eftersom den bygger på en kombination av teorier om infrastruktur i så skilda ämnen som vetenskap- och teknikstudier, politisk geografi, politisk ekologi, internationella relationer och säkerhetsstudier. Det är dessutom ovanligt att naturresurs- och säkerhetaspekter studeras tillsammans i en studie av storskaliga infrastruktursatsningar i södra Afrika. Projektet förväntas bidra till att skapa en mer omfattande förståelse av hur infrastruktur förändrar platser och upplevelser av tillhörighet diskursivt och materiellt, socialt och tekniskt, geografiskt och politiskt. Denna förståelse är inte bara viktigt ur ett akademiskt perspektiv utan även i förhållande till de många viktiga beslut som just nu fattas i planeringen och genomförandet av större infrastrukturprojekt i södra Afrika. Förhoppningen är därför att projektet ska utveckla kunskap som kan bidra till förståelse för hur och när storskalig infrastruktur kan vara ett verktyg till att motverka snarare än förstärka marginalisering och fattigdom.

The purpose with the network ToxBol is to build a long-term research collaboration between Bolivian, Swedish, and French universities and institutes to address environmental problems in Bolivia and their impact on human health, a research area hitherto poorly studied. We build the network on partners that recently have started to collaborate in projects focusing on 1) metal exposure from drinking water and food and toxicity; 2) pesticide exposure from plantation work and toxicity; and 3) susceptibility factors and toxicity. The collaboration has so far been successful in initiating field studies in Bolivia and establishment of methods; the preliminary analyses show that parts of the Bolivian population are exposed to chemicals at worrying levels. We now aim to deepen the collaboration by 1) follow-up the pilot studies, especially to increase the study participants in order to obtain more reliable results on variations in exposure 2) analysis of biological samples for biomarkers of exposure and toxic effects, 3) performance of risk assessment for the exposures identified, 4) workshops for dissemination of the results, and 5) pilot studies for future grant proposals. The ToxBol Network will increase knowledge about environmental problems in Bolivia which is necessary for improving health and reduce poverty. Bakgrund Hälsostatusen i Bolivia är en av de lägsta på västra halvklotet med hög barndödlighet, utbredd undernäring, och parasit- och infektionssjukdomar är mycket vanliga - bland annat på grund av dålig vattenkvalitet. Utöver detta har studier visat att det är vanligt i sydamerikanska länder med okontrollerad exponering av giftiga kemikalier genom vatten, maten eller via arbetsmiljön vilket ytterligare kan öka risken för allvarlig sjukdom. Emellertid är det i dagsläget oklart i vilken utsträckning man i Bolivia utsätts för en giftig miljö. Vissa delar av de sydamerikanska Anderna är kända för naturligt mycket höga halter av giftiga metaller i dricksvatten, däribland arsenik, samt att den betydande gruvnäringen i Anderna har lett till omfattande nedsmutsning av dricksvatten, föda och luft. I stora delar av Bolivia tillåter klimatet att man odlar grödor året om vilket tillsammans med den ökade nationella och internationella konkurrensen medför stor användning av bekämpningsmedel (pesticider). Dessa används dessutom ofta okontrollerat och utan skyddsutrustning. Våra preliminära resultat indikerar att exponering för metaller via dricksvattnet samt användandet av bekämpningsmedel i jordbruket utgör en stor hälsorisk för stora delar av befolkningen i Bolivia. Syfte Vårt syfte med ansökan är att bilda ett nätverk av forskare i Bolivia, Sverige och Frankrike för att studera samband mellan miljö och hälsa i den bolivianska befolkningen, identifiera tidiga hälsoeffekter av miljön och samt speciellt känsliga grupper. Akronym för projektet är ToxBol. I ToxBol utgår vi från två nyligen initierade projekt - ett om metallexponering och ett om exponering för bekämpningsmedel. Vi arbetar vidare genom 1) att utöka våra pilotstudier till fler deltagare för att kunna bättre karlägga variation i exponering och vilka faktorer som bidrar till ökad/minskad exponering; 2) analysera exponering och tidiga hälsoeffekter i biologiska prover 3) riskbedömning för miljörelaterad sjukdom 4) workshops för att lära ut metoder om att mäta exponering och göra riskbedömning samt för att sprida resultaten 5) pilotstudier för att möjliggöra nya ansökningar om miljö och hälsa i Bolivia. Metod och genomförande ToxBol verkar genom de specifika forskningsprojekten där vi använder oss av frågeformulär för att kartlägga vanor vad gäller intag av vatten, diet, förekomst av sjukdomar mm samt vilka bekämpningsmedel som används och hur. Blod- och urinprover kommer att samlas in för att mäta exponeringsnivåer och markörer för tidiga hälsoeffekter. Undersökningarna om metallexponering kommer att centreras till bolivianska Anderna, där det naturligt förekommer höga nivåer av bla arsenik samt där gruvindustrin är belägen. Pesticidexponering kommer att studeras i 3 områden med olika ekologiska nischer som omfattar olika geografiska höjder och klimatzoner. De biologiska proverna kommer även att användas för att undersöka om vi kan identifiera tidiga markörer för hälsoeffekter eller om det föreligger individuella genetiska skillnader som medför ökad känslighet. ToxBol verkar genom möten där vi diskuterar studierna samt möjliga samarbeten mellan parterna, arbetar med att ta fram gemensamma publikationer om miljö och hälsa i Bolivia och närliggande områden, samt arbetar med att ta fram gemensamma ansökningar till forskningsfinansiärer.

The purpose with the network ToxBol is to build a long-term research collaboration between Bolivian, Swedish, and French universities and institutes to address environmental problems in Bolivia and their impact on human health, a research area hitherto poorly studied. We build the network on partners that recently have started to collaborate in projects focusing on 1) metal exposure from drinking water and food and toxicity; 2) pesticide exposure from plantation work and toxicity; and 3) susceptibility factors and toxicity. The collaboration has so far been successful in initiating field studies in Bolivia and establishment of methods; the preliminary analyses show that parts of the Bolivian population are exposed to chemicals at worrying levels. We now aim to deepen the collaboration by 1) follow-up the pilot studies, especially to increase the study participants in order to obtain more reliable results on variations in exposure 2) analysis of biological samples for biomarkers of exposure and toxic effects, 3) performance of risk assessment for the exposures identified, 4) workshops for dissemination of the results, and 5) pilot studies for future grant proposals. The ToxBol Network will increase knowledge about environmental problems in Bolivia which is necessary for improving health and reduce poverty. Bakgrund Hälsostatusen i Bolivia är en av de lägsta på västra halvklotet med hög barndödlighet, utbredd undernäring, och parasit- och infektionssjukdomar är mycket vanliga - bland annat på grund av dålig vattenkvalitet. Utöver detta har studier visat att det är vanligt i sydamerikanska länder med okontrollerad exponering av giftiga kemikalier genom vatten, maten eller via arbetsmiljön vilket ytterligare kan öka risken för allvarlig sjukdom. Emellertid är det i dagsläget oklart i vilken utsträckning man i Bolivia utsätts för en giftig miljö. Vissa delar av de sydamerikanska Anderna är kända för naturligt mycket höga halter av giftiga metaller i dricksvatten, däribland arsenik, samt att den betydande gruvnäringen i Anderna har lett till omfattande nedsmutsning av dricksvatten, föda och luft. I stora delar av Bolivia tillåter klimatet att man odlar grödor året om vilket tillsammans med den ökade nationella och internationella konkurrensen medför stor användning av bekämpningsmedel (pesticider). Dessa används dessutom ofta okontrollerat och utan skyddsutrustning. Våra preliminära resultat indikerar att exponering för metaller via dricksvattnet samt användandet av bekämpningsmedel i jordbruket utgör en stor hälsorisk för stora delar av befolkningen i Bolivia. Syfte Vårt syfte med ansökan är att bilda ett nätverk av forskare i Bolivia, Sverige och Frankrike för att studera samband mellan miljö och hälsa i den bolivianska befolkningen, identifiera tidiga hälsoeffekter av miljön och samt speciellt känsliga grupper. Akronym för projektet är ToxBol. I ToxBol utgår vi från två nyligen initierade projekt - ett om metallexponering och ett om exponering för bekämpningsmedel. Vi arbetar vidare genom 1) att utöka våra pilotstudier till fler deltagare för att kunna bättre karlägga variation i exponering och vilka faktorer som bidrar till ökad/minskad exponering; 2) analysera exponering och tidiga hälsoeffekter i biologiska prover 3) riskbedömning för miljörelaterad sjukdom 4) workshops för att lära ut metoder om att mäta exponering och göra riskbedömning samt för att sprida resultaten 5) pilotstudier för att möjliggöra nya ansökningar om miljö och hälsa i Bolivia. Metod och genomförande ToxBol verkar genom de specifika forskningsprojekten där vi använder oss av frågeformulär för att kartlägga vanor vad gäller intag av vatten, diet, förekomst av sjukdomar mm samt vilka bekämpningsmedel som används och hur. Blod- och urinprover kommer att samlas in för att mäta exponeringsnivåer och markörer för tidiga hälsoeffekter. Undersökningarna om metallexponering kommer att centreras till bolivianska Anderna, där det naturligt förekommer höga nivåer av bla arsenik samt där gruvindustrin är belägen. Pesticidexponering kommer att studeras i 3 områden med olika ekologiska nischer som omfattar olika geografiska höjder och klimatzoner. De biologiska proverna kommer även att användas för att undersöka om vi kan identifiera tidiga markörer för hälsoeffekter eller om det föreligger individuella genetiska skillnader som medför ökad känslighet. ToxBol verkar genom möten där vi diskuterar studierna samt möjliga samarbeten mellan parterna, arbetar med att ta fram gemensamma publikationer om miljö och hälsa i Bolivia och närliggande områden, samt arbetar med att ta fram gemensamma ansökningar till forskningsfinansiärer. ToxBol verkar även i form av workshops för a) kunskapsöverföring av metoder för att mäta exponering samt för riskbedömning samt för b) spridning av resultaten via hälsoriskbedömning.

The overall objective of this project is to secure sustainable use and management of groundwater in Nepal through a modernization of monitoring. With a focus on the Tarai and Pahar regions of Nepal, the project will run a series of three workshop activities with distinct follow up plans over three years (1) to catalog existing groundwater data for integration within an online groundwater information system, (2) to train on innovative mobile monitoring technologies utilizing citizen science methods (employment of rural women and youth) for the collection of new hydrogeological information, and (3) to develop synergies among Nepali Ministries and Departments demonstrating the power of data sharing and to enable development of joint applicant(s) for scaling up pilot studies. This project seeks to connect the people of Nepal to their groundwater resources. By leveraging novel technologies and geospatial databases, we hope to unlock the power of data as a central component in Nepal's plan for future climate-resilient and sustainable development. Grundvatten är viktigt i Nepal. Den största delen nederbörd kommer under en väldigt kort monsunperiod. Detta innebär att grundvattnet behåller de flöden som är viktigt för mänskliga behov, livsmedelsproduktion, ekosystemhälsa och vattenkraftproduktion under större delen av året. Men, nuvarande metoder för insamling och lagring av Nepals grundvattendata är extremt föråldrade. I det här projektet kommer vi att arbeta tillsammans med "Nepali Groundwater Resources Development Board" för att förnya datainsamling och lagring, genom utbildning av personal och utbildningsutbyten. För datalagring kommer vi att utveckla ett online system för information om grundvatten. Detta system kommer att organisera data och göra den lättillgänglig för myndigheter, investerare och lokalsamhällen i hela Nepal. För datainsamling kommer vi att utbilda samhällen i Tarai- och Paharregionerna i hur man använder mobiltelefoner för att övervaka grundvatten och små vattenkällor. För att bidra till minskad fattigdom kommer pilotprogram startas, där människor får betalt för att samla in data. Genom dessa två sätt att modernisera övervakning av grundvatten, kommer projektet att fungera som en länk mellan Nepals befolkning och dess grundvattenresurser. Efter att ha testat möjligheterna att modernisera grundvattensövervakningen i Tarai- och Paharregionerna, kommer vi att interagera med de många myndigheter i Nepal som är ansvariga för att säkra vattenresurser. Planen är att demonstrera (1) hur förbättrad övervakning kan minska osäkerheten vid planering för framtiden och (2) behovet av att förnya den nationella övervakningsplanen för grundvatten i Nepal. Vår vision är att använda detta inledande "Research Links" projekt för att övertyga internationella investerare att hjälpa till att utveckla, och finansiera, ett nationellt övervakningsprogram för grundvatten i Nepal.

Emerging new races of the wheat stem rust pathogen (Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici) threaten wheat production primarily in East Africa, Middle East and Central Asia, but also the globally. Stem rust disease outbreaks in sensitive wheat may result in 100% reduction in yield, thus severely threaten food security. We have recently discovered and described a wheat-rye substitution line, 'SLU238', possessing a novel gene towards these emerging new races of the stem rust pathogen. We have transferred this novel gene (Sr59) to a Chinese Spring (CS) ph1b mutant wheat background through application of the breakage-fusion mechanism. Simultaneously, we also developed Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) markers that can differentiate the presence of this specific gene, thereby being useful in practical plant breeding. Still, our discovery of the Sr59 gene does not contribute to food security as the gene has not yet been transferred to locally adapted wheat material. Our aim with this proposal is to 1) transfer the Sr59 resistance gene into adapted wheat genotypes; 2) secure agronomic and quality performance of these genotypes; and 3) transfer this new wheat into local systems of genotype improvements and variety spreading to farmers within the different regions that this proposal target (East Africa, Middle East and Central Asia). Vete kan anses vara världens största livmedelsgröda. Vete bidrar idag med 20% av både de kalorier och de proteiner som mänskligheten konsumerar. Vete är också en av de viktigaste grödorna i de regioner som detta projekt syftar till, dvs i Östra Afrika, Mellanöstern och Centralasien. I vissa länder i dessa regioner utgör vete sk stapelföda, i tex Tajikistan består 60% av det dagliga kaloriintaget av vete. För de fattiga bönderna i dessa regioner utgör vete både en stapelföda, där vete är lätt att lagra för användning året om och en handelsvara som kan ge lite extra inkomster vid bra skördar. Olika typer av rost på vete är nog den typ av sjukdom som påverkar skörden mest, om ingen kemisk bekämpning görs och vetet inte har någon resistens mot angrepp av rost kan avkastningen av vete minska med 100%, dvs man får ingen skörd alls. Ett stort problem här är de nya sjukdomsraserna (tex svartrost-rasen Ug99) som på senare år har blivit ett allt större problem, inte minst i Östafrika, Mellanöstern och Centralafrika. Mot dessa nya raser finns idag inga resistenta vetesorter, vilket är ett stort hot mot livsmedelssäkerheten i de nämnda regionerna. För ökad livsmedelssäkerhet och fattigdomsbekämpning är alltså resistenta sorter otroligt viktigt. I princip finns två strategier för att upprätthålla en bra skörd av god kvalitet under år med stora rostangrepp, antingen kan kemiska bekämpningsmedel användas eller kan man odla sorter som är resistenta mot rost. För veteodling i fattiga delar av Östafrika, Mellanöstern och Centralasien, så är resistenta sorter otroligt viktigt. För fattiga bönder är inköp av pesticider är en omöjlighet för den som inte har ekonomiska resurser till detta, Vidare så krävs en viss utbildning och läsförståelse för att kunna använda kemiska pesticider på ett riktigt sätt och för korrekt dosering. En ökad pesticid-användning eller en felaktig sådan kan också påverka klimat och miljö negativt. Möjligheten att odla resistenta sorter bidrar således inte bara till ökad livsmedelssäkerhet utan också till ökad jämlikhet. Ett problem vid resistensförädling är att patogenerna, dvs de organismer som är ansvariga för sjukdomarna hos värdväxten, i detta fall vetet, regelbundet förändras och på så sätt kan de angripa vete med gener som tidigare stod för resistensen hos vetet. Detta innebär att det ständigt finns behov av att hitta nya gener som är resistenta mot sjukdomarna. Inom det här sökta projektet ha vi tillgång till ett extremt unikt och intressant vetematerial som har tagits fram under en livstid av Professor Arnulf Merker som tidigare hade sin verksamhet vid Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU). Vetematerialet består av en rad linjer som har erhållit translokationer eller substitutioner av kromosomer från släktingar som man korsat vetet med. Linjerna består alltså framför allt av vete men med enstaka kromosomer som kommer från någon släkting. Detta material har visat sig innehålla nya resistensgener mot ett antal olika sjukdomar. Inom ett tidigare projekt som hade finansiering från Monsanto Beachell Borlaug stiftelsen i USA har vi lyckats att både visa att det finns nya gener för svartrost-resistens i materialet samt att överföra dessa gener i småbitar, som sk Robertsonian traslokationer till en mer "ren" vetebakgrund. Denna överföring underlättar möjligheterna att använda dessa gener inom växtförädling för att kunna ta fram nya sorter som är resistenta mot alla idag kända raser av svartrost (inklusive Ug99). Vi har också i det förra projektet tagit fram sk KASP markörer som kan användas i växtförädlingen för att specificera om "våra" resistensgener finns tillgängliga i det vetematerial man undersöker. Syftet med det här projektet är att transferera de nya generna vi har upptäckt i vårt vetematerial till vetematerial som är adapterat till de olika regionerna i Östafrika, Mellanöstern och Centralasien.

While these processes are generally viewed as necessary to deal with past wrongdoings, it remains unclear how participation in top-down vs. bottom-up processes impacts upon perceptions of security and socioeconomic cooperation in the local settings. We will undertake a structured-focused comparison of three post-conflict settings that had varying approaches to transitional justice: Sierra Leone, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and Mozambique. The first two implemented official, top-down strategies, while the latter relied on locally-derived, grassroots processes to overcome their violent pasts. Data will be collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with victims and perpetrators who continue to live in the same communities. This project will contribute to Swedish development goals of: 1) reducing poverty through understanding how societal trust and social capital can be increased, thus paving the way for economic development; 2) addressing oppression and human rights abuses through understanding how to best stop cycles of violence via reconciliation; and 3) empowering females by exploring how women's experiences and needs can be best met in post-conflict settings. Forskning rörande övergångsstrukturer för rättvisa och försoning har under senare år genererat en debatt huruvida toppstyrda (t.ex. krigstribunaler och statligt sanktionerade sanningskommissioner) eller "botten upp" (t.ex. traditionella eller gräsrotsinitierade processer) strategier är mest fördelaktiga för att hantera frågor rörande rättvisa och försoning i samhällen som genomlidit systematiska övergrepp. Syftet med studien är därför att undersöka vilken effekt respektive strategi har på perceptioner av säkerhet i lokala samhällen som drabbats av väpnade konflikter. Vi kommer att göra en komparativ studie av tre samhällen i post-konfliktländer som har implementerat olika typer av övergångsstrukturer för rättvisa och försoning: Lasvadalen i Bosnien-Hercegovina, Gorongosa distriktet i Mocambique, samt Kono distriktet i Sierra Leone. Både Bosnien-Hercegovina och Sierra Leone använda sig av övergångsstrukturer som inkluderade krigstribunaler och sanningskommissioner, medan Mocambique förlitade sig mer på lokaldrivna processer (traditionella försoningsmekanismer). Det empiriska materialet kommer att samlas in med hjälp av djupintervjuer och fokusgrupper med offer samt förövare, som fortfarande lever i samma lokala samhällen. Givet att dessa grupper tvingas att interagera på en daglig basis, är det av stor vikt att skapa en större förståelse för hur toppstyrda respektive "botten upp" initiativ för rättvisa och försoning påverkar byggandet av varaktig fred. Studien har dessutom potential att göra ett viktigt bidrag till Sveriges övergripande utvecklingsmål att minska fattigdomen och förtrycket för de mest utsatta grupperna i låginkomstländer. Forskningsrön inom ekonomi har, t.ex. påvisat att tillit och socialt kapital har avgörande betydelse för ekonomisk tillväxt och företagsamhet. Det är därför av avgörande betydelse att veta om toppstyrda eller botten upp övergångsstrukturer är bäst på att generera säkerhet och tillit mellan krigsdrabbade grupper; utan denna kunskap finns det en överhängande risk att ökad polarisering förhindrar ekonomisk återhämtning i krigsdrabbade länder. Vidare är förtryck och brott mot mänskliga rättigheter en central anledning till att inbördeskrig bryter ut och fortsätter.

While these processes are generally viewed as necessary to deal with past wrongdoings, it remains unclear how participation in top-down vs. bottom-up processes impacts upon perceptions of security and socioeconomic cooperation in the local settings. We will undertake a structured-focused comparison of three post-conflict settings that had varying approaches to transitional justice: Sierra Leone, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and Mozambique. The first two implemented official, top-down strategies, while the latter relied on locally-derived, grassroots processes to overcome their violent pasts. Data will be collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with victims and perpetrators who continue to live in the same communities. This project will contribute to Swedish development goals of: 1) reducing poverty through understanding how societal trust and social capital can be increased, thus paving the way for economic development; 2) addressing oppression and human rights abuses through understanding how to best stop cycles of violence via reconciliation; and 3) empowering females by exploring how women's experiences and needs can be best met in post-conflict settings. Forskning rörande övergångsstrukturer för rättvisa och försoning har under senare år genererat en debatt huruvida toppstyrda (t.ex. krigstribunaler och statligt sanktionerade sanningskommissioner) eller "botten upp" (t.ex. traditionella eller gräsrotsinitierade processer) strategier är mest fördelaktiga för att hantera frågor rörande rättvisa och försoning i samhällen som genomlidit systematiska övergrepp. Syftet med studien är därför att undersöka vilken effekt respektive strategi har på perceptioner av säkerhet i lokala samhällen som drabbats av väpnade konflikter. Vi kommer att göra en komparativ studie av tre samhällen i post-konfliktländer som har implementerat olika typer av övergångsstrukturer för rättvisa och försoning: Lasvadalen i Bosnien-Hercegovina, Gorongosa distriktet i Mocambique, samt Kono distriktet i Sierra Leone. Både Bosnien-Hercegovina och Sierra Leone använda sig av övergångsstrukturer som inkluderade krigstribunaler och sanningskommissioner, medan Mocambique förlitade sig mer på lokaldrivna processer (traditionella försoningsmekanismer). Det empiriska materialet kommer att samlas in med hjälp av djupintervjuer och fokusgrupper med offer samt förövare, som fortfarande lever i samma lokala samhällen. Givet att dessa grupper tvingas att interagera på en daglig basis, är det av stor vikt att skapa en större förståelse för hur toppstyrda respektive "botten upp" initiativ för rättvisa och försoning påverkar byggandet av varaktig fred. Studien har dessutom potential att göra ett viktigt bidrag till Sveriges övergripande utvecklingsmål att minska fattigdomen och förtrycket för de mest utsatta grupperna i låginkomstländer. Forskningsrön inom ekonomi har, t.ex. påvisat att tillit och socialt kapital har avgörande betydelse för ekonomisk tillväxt och företagsamhet. Det är därför av avgörande betydelse att veta om toppstyrda eller botten upp övergångsstrukturer är bäst på att generera säkerhet och tillit mellan krigsdrabbade grupper; utan denna kunskap finns det en överhängande risk att ökad polarisering förhindrar ekonomisk återhämtning i krigsdrabbade länder. Vidare är förtryck och brott mot mänskliga rättigheter en central anledning till att inbördeskrig bryter ut och fortsätter. Om lokala och internationella aktörer inte söker att adressera sådana överträdelser, finns det en överhängande risk att politiska eliter fortsätter använda samma destruktiva beteende även i framtiden.

This project will focus on thermochemical pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of quinoa stalks and seed coats, two abundant residues of Bolivian agriculture. While stalks will be directly pretreated, seed coats will first be processed to biopesticides and the solid residue will then be sent to pretreatment. The sugars produced in the enzymatic hydrolysis of both substrates will be bio-converted to exopolysaccharide-based biopolymers using a Bolivian bacterial strain, and to ethanol by yeast using high-solids concentration processes. Using high solids loads is advantageous with regard to product recovery economics, but it is challenging due to mass transfer limitations and to the accumulation of fermentation inhibitors. The current project intends to enhance the mass transfer by introducing a pre-saccharification step prior to the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation, and the inhibition problem will be alleviated with reducing agents. High ethanol titers will also be reached by adding molasses to the hydrolysates. A techno-economic evaluation of the different approaches will be performed. The research will result in efficient processes for conversion of lignocellulosic feedstocks and in a more diversified production of Bolivian quinoa sector Ökad produktion och användning av biobaserade produkter från jord- och skogsbruk har visat sig ha tydligt positiva sociala och ekonomiska effekter på samhällen i stark utveckling, t.ex. i Latinamerika. Inte minst gäller detta utvecklingen på landsbygden. Biobaserade produkter kan vara flytande biobränslen, t.ex. etanol, samt gröna kemikalier och material, t.ex. plast baserad på förnybar råvara. Speciellt fördelaktigt är att använda rester som innehåller cellulosa, eftersom cellulosabaserade rester inte konkurrerar med framställning av livsmedel och eftersom restprodukter och avfall har ett lågt värde, vilket är viktigt för processens ekonomi. Cellulosabaserade råvaror kan omvandlas till värdefulla produkter genom teknik baserad på förbehandling, försockring och förjäsning. Förbehandling är en termokemisk process där materialet behandlas vid högt tryck och hög temperatur (vanligen runt 200 grader C). Försockring görs bäst med biologiska katalysatorer, enzymer, eftersom de har förutsättningar att ge relativt höga utbyten. Förjäsning utförs med olika slags mikroorganismer, t.ex. bakterier eller jästsvampar. I det här projektet kommer bolivianska och svenska forskare att samarbeta för att undersöka hur rester från bolivianskt jordbruk kan användas för att framställa värdefulla produkter baserade på förnybar råvara. De rester som kommer att studeras är stjälkar och fröskal från quinoa. Quinoa ger frön som kan användas till maträtter, på samma sätt som ris eller couscous. Efter det att man utvunnit fröna, som blir till mat, återstår emellertid en cellulosabaserad rest, som huvudsakligen består av växtens stjälk. En annan rest från quinoaproduktion är fröskal som genereras under den mekaniska tvättningsprocess som används för att avlägsna växtens bittra komponenter. Biprodukter från quinoaframställning har idag mycket lågt värde och användningen är mycket begränsad. I det här projektet kommer stjälkar och fröskal från quinoa att utsättas för förbehandling, försockring och förjäsning med syftet att göra processerna så effektiva som möjligt. Stjälkarna kommer att förbehandlas direkt, medan fröskalen först extraheras för framställning av biopesticider och sedan genomgår förbehandling. Tre olika typer av produkter kommer att studeras, nämligen cellulosabaserad etanol, biopolymerer och biopesticider, dvs. biologiska bekämpningsmedel. Produktion av biopolymeren kommer att studeras i processer som baseras på en nyligen upptäckt salt-tolerant bakterie som isolerats från den bolivianska högplatån Altiplano. För produktion av cellulosabaserad etanol kommer processer baserade på jäst att studeras. Den mesta etanol som tillverkas i världen idag härrör från rörsocker (som i Brasilien) eller stärkelse (som i USA). Framställning av kemiska produkter från cellulosa är fördelaktigt jämfört med rörsocker och stärkelse så tillvida att cellulosan inte kan användas för produktion av livsmedel. Nackdelen med cellulosa jämfört med rörsocker eller stärkelse är att det tekniskt sett är svårare att med högt utbyte och till en rimlig kostnad konvertera den till socker. Av ekonomiska skäl vill man ha en koncentrerad produkt snarare än en utspädd. I det här projektet kommer två nya strategier att konvertera cellulosabaserad råvara till en produkt med hög koncentration att undersökas. Den ena strategin innebär utförande av en försockrings- och förjäsningsprocess med hög halt fast fas genom ett enzymatisk försteg med samtidig tillsats av små mängder av en kemisk substans som underlättar konvertering vid höga koncentrationer, vilket är baserat på en uppfinning av projektets svenska part.

Bakgrund Under de senaste decennierna har en hög förekomst av kronisk njursvikt av okänd orsak, (CKDu) rapporterats från landsbygdsområden i Centralamerika, Sri Lanka och Indien. Rapporterna från de olika områdena har mycket gemensamt, sjukdomen drabbar ofta fattiga jordbruksarbetare som bor och arbetar i varmt klimat och är inte kopplade till traditionella riskfaktorer för kronisk njursjukdom såsom högt blodtryck eller diabetes mellitus. Det stora antalet patienter med CKDu orsakar stora påfrestningar på de redan begränsade sjukvårdsresurserna i regionerna och många njursjuka patienter får inte den vård och uppföljning som behövs, vilket resulterar i ökat lidande och sjukdomsbörda för patienten och försämrad socioekonomi för regionen. Ännu är orsaken till CKDu i de olika regionerna inte helt klarlagd. I Centralamerika är den ledande hypotesen att orsaken kan vara upprepade uttorkning (vatten och saltförluster) orsakad av tungt fysiskt arbete i varmt klimat. Denna hypotes har de senaste åren fått mer stöd från både experimentella studier och studier av lantbruksarbetare under arbete. I Sri Lanka har forskare främst föreslagit olika miljötoxiner såsom tungmetaller och bekämpningsmedel som orsak till CKDu. Trots de stora likheterna mellan CKDu-epidemierna i de olika regionerna finns det i dagsläget inga definitiva bevis på att de är samma sjukdom, främst på grund av en brist på jämförande studier av patientergrupper och vävnadsprover från njurarna, s.k. njurbiopsier.

För att stärka samarbetet kring sjukdomen kommer vi även att skapa och etablera ett nätverk av njurläkare, patologer och forskare från de olika regionerna vilket kommer att förbättra den lokala kapaciteten vad gäller diagnostik och vidare forskning inom CKDu. En workshop planeras i Sverige för deltagare i nätverket där resultaten från de jämförande patientstudierna att presenteras och diskuteras. Vidare kommer ett protokoll utarbetas för att på ett systematiskt sätt kategorisera och bedöma njurbiopsier, d.v.s. de mikroskopiska njurförändringar som ses vid CKDu. Betydelse: Om vi inom detta projekt finner en nära likhet mellan patientgrupperna från de olika kontinenterna, tyder det på att sjukdomarna har samma orsak och detta kommer att vara viktig information i sökandet om vad som orsakar CKDu.

De gemensamma diagnoskriterier för förändringar i njurbiopsierna som tas fram vid den workshop som beskrivs ovan kommer att kunna användas för diagnostik på njurbiopsier, men även för vidare viktiga studier inom CKDu, framför allt kommer det vara viktigt i kommande prevalensstudier.

Community-based interventions aimed at strengthening SRHR for adolescents can help to reduce such health challenges. There is limited knowledge of the mechanisms that can effectively deliver such interventions, or of the processes that can bring about their integration into the health system. The purpose of this project is to identify the mechanisms that facilitate integration of SRHR interventions into community health systems, and establish whether such integration promotes (or not) the acceptability and adoption of SRHR services. This will be achieved by conducting a multiple case study embedded within an ongoing RCT. A theory-driven evaluation will be applied, which will, through a stepwise approach, develop and refine a causal theory resulting in policy recommendations, steering further research and informing teaching programmes. The 3-year project was conceived based in the partners&#180; mutual interest in health policy and systems research with a focus on community-based interventions to promote equity and the right to health. We aim for a long-term partnership through mutual development of methodological expertise and projects beyond this ResearchLink proposal. Regular workshops, study visits, and virtual meetings for senior and junior researchers will form the backbone of activities. Ungdomar har olika vårdbehov jämfört med vuxnas, särskilt när det gäller sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter (SRHR). Försummelse av deras särskilda vårdbehov leder till negativa konsekvenser såsom oönskade graviditeter, sexuellt överförbara infektioner och sexuellt våld. Samhällsbaserade insatser för att stärka SRHR bland ungdomar kan bidra till att minska dessa hälsoproblem. Det har länge konstaterats att för att hälso- och sjukvården skall vara till nytta för ungdomar så bör den vara "ungdomsvänlig", dvs tillgänglig, accepterad, rättvis, ändamålsenligt och effektivt för olika ungdomsgrupper, enligt Världshälsoorganisationen. För att SRHR insatser ska lyckas måste de dessutom vara förenliga med samhällets och sjukvårdssystemet struktur, dvs de måste vara väl integrerade.

Community-based interventions aimed at strengthening SRHR for adolescents can help to reduce such health challenges. There is limited knowledge of the mechanisms that can effectively deliver such interventions, or of the processes that can bring about their integration into the health system. The purpose of this project is to identify the mechanisms that facilitate integration of SRHR interventions into community health systems, and establish whether such integration promotes (or not) the acceptability and adoption of SRHR services. This will be achieved by conducting a multiple case study embedded within an ongoing RCT. A theory-driven evaluation will be applied, which will, through a stepwise approach, develop and refine a causal theory resulting in policy recommendations, steering further research and informing teaching programmes. The 3-year project was conceived based in the partners&#180; mutual interest in health policy and systems research with a focus on community-based interventions to promote equity and the right to health. We aim for a long-term partnership through mutual development of methodological expertise and projects beyond this ResearchLink proposal. Regular workshops, study visits, and virtual meetings for senior and junior researchers will form the backbone of activities. Ungdomar har olika vårdbehov jämfört med vuxnas, särskilt när det gäller sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter (SRHR). Försummelse av deras särskilda vårdbehov leder till negativa konsekvenser såsom oönskade graviditeter, sexuellt överförbara infektioner och sexuellt våld. Samhällsbaserade insatser för att stärka SRHR bland ungdomar kan bidra till att minska dessa hälsoproblem. Det har länge konstaterats att för att hälso- och sjukvården skall vara till nytta för ungdomar så bör den vara "ungdomsvänlig", dvs tillgänglig, accepterad, rättvis, ändamålsenligt och effektivt för olika ungdomsgrupper, enligt Världshälsoorganisationen. För att SRHR insatser ska lyckas måste de dessutom vara förenliga med samhällets och sjukvårdssystemet struktur, dvs de måste vara väl integrerade. En nyckelfråga för sådana insatser är därför: hur kan de kan integreras och upprätthållas i de lokala samhälls- och hälsosystemstrukturerna? Det finns en begränsad kunskap om mekanismerna för att implementera SRH interventioner, inklusive hur de bäst integreras och hur man upprätthåller dem över tid.

Whereas electoral violence is incompatible with the notion of free and fair elections, the political consequences of such violence remain little understood. Addressing this important gap, this project develops a novel theoretical framework to explain diverging effects of electoral violence on regime trajectories worldwide, focusing on the role of opposition parties in monitoring transgression against democratic norms. It explores this framework at three levels of analysis. First, at a national level, quantitative analysis will provide insights on the general relationship between electoral violence and democratic outcomes, and on the role of opposition party strength in mediating this relationship. Second, a sub-national, qualitative comparison of Lagos and Zanzibar provides insights into the mechanisms through which opposition actors shape political trajectories in the wake of electoral violence. Third, individual survey data of voting behavior and attitudes is used to enhance our understanding of how the micro-level foundation of democratic governance is influenced by exposure to electoral violence. Better knowledge of the conditions under which electoral violence threatens to derail democratic progress is vital to formulate more effective policies for democracy promotion and violence prevention. Under de senaste trettio åren har antalet länder som väljer sina högsta politiska ledare genom val fördubblas. Införandet av flerpartival representerar en viktig del i övergången från auktoritärt till demokratisk styresätt. I många länder har dock valperioder varit förenade med utbredd våldsanvändning, till exempel riktat mot politiska kandidater och väljare. Valrelaterat våld är inte förenligt med idealet om fria och rättvisa val, samtidigt vet vi lite om hur sådant våld påverkar möjligheten för demokrati på längre sikt. Detta forskningsprojekt studerar därför de politiska konsekvenserna av valrelaterat våld och vill förstå varför våldet i vissa fall verkar vara förödande för demokratiseringsprocesser och i andra fall inte. Vårt teoretiska argument tar fasta på den viktiga roll som oppositionen och dess väljare kan spela i att bevaka och mobilisera mot försök att underminerande de demokratiska principerna i länder där våld eller hot om våld förekommer. Projektet studerar de politiska effekterna av valrelaterat våld på tre analysnivåer, som på olika sätt svarar till grundpelare för framväxt av hållbart demokrati. På den nationella nivån kommer vi använda statistisk analys för att identifiera generella samband mellan förekomsten av valrelaterat våld och förändringar mot mer eller mindre demokratiska institutioner. Vi kommer särskilt undersöka hur oppositionspartierna särdrag - deras storlek, varaktighet och organisering - påverkar sannolikheten för att valrelaterat våld har negativa demokratiska konsekvenser. På den sub-nationella nivån kommer fältarbete lägga grunden för en kvalitativ, jämförande studie av Lagos i Nigeria och Zanzibar i Tanzania. I båda fallen har flerpartivalen varit omstridda och präglade av våld, men med olika roll för oppositionen i valvåldets skugga. I Lagos associeras den med etableringen av privata milisgrupper för att underminera politisk konkurrens, på Zanzibar tar oppositionen plats i formella institutioner efter avtal om maktdelning. Hur kan oppositionens särdrag förklara dessa olika utfall? På individ-nivån kommer vi samla in survey data för att studera hur hot och utsatthet för valrelaterat våld påverkar de attityder och beteenden som lägger grunden för ett hållbart demokratiskt styresätt, såsom valdeltagande och politisk förtroende. Vi är särskilt intresserade av hur väljare reagerar olika på hot och upplevelser av våld beroende på deras känsla av parti-politisk tillhörighet och grad av mobilisering. Sammantaget så kommer projektet att göra viktiga teoretiska och empiriska bidrag till vår kunskap om de politiska effekterna av våld och förutsättningarna för demokratisering, med särskilt fokus på aktörer och deras val.

Diarrheal disease is an important cause of mortality among newborn llamas. This study will analyze the causes of diarrhea in domestic llamas, the gut microbiota composition along first year of life, the colostrum composition of llama mother's milk and the effectiveness of colostrum feeding system as a prevention system. The project is a collaboration between Universidad Mayor de San Andres and the National Service for Agricultural Health and Food Safety in Bolivia, University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology. Information derived from using state-of-the-art microbiology, genomics, metagenomics and proteomics technologies, will be used to design new diagnostic tools addressing main pathogens of diarrheal disease in llamas which will be sequentially locally implemented by the Bolivian partners.

In addition, it will create a chain of value between farmers, local animal health system and researchers in the study area of Bolivia. Diarré är en vanlig orsak till dödlighet hos nyfödda lamor och så mycket som 10-25% eller mer av en flock kan påverkas samtidigt. I jordbruksområden på höglandsregioner i Altiplano i Bolivia är boskap i form av tama kameldjur en viktig källa för en hållbar uthållig verksamhet för jordbrukarna. Återkommande frostperioder under året påverkar jordbrukarnas förmåga att odla grödor, så lamaboskap är ofta jordbrukarnas enda källa till mat, kläder och extra inkomster. Vid ett diarréutbrott så avlivas vanligtvis hela flocken för att förhindra smittspridning. Avsaknaden av diagnostiska verktyg och interventioner leder till att lantbrukare och veterinärer tar till drastiska metoder, vilket i sin tur inverkar stort på ekonomi och hållbarhet hos enskilda jordbrukare inom regionen. Att kunna identifiera orsaken till diarrésjukdom hos nyfödda lamor i området bidrar till att lätthanterliga metoder för att detektera sjukdomsalstrande bakterier hos lamorna kan utvecklas och implementeras. En fullständig analys av bakteriesammansättningen hos lamorna samt hur den förändras i samband med diarrésjukdom är nödvändigt för att kunna etablera mer effektiva behandlingsmöjligheter och minska smittspridning bland lamaflocken. I detta projekt kommer även effekten av intag av colostrom för att förhindra infektioner hos nyfödda lamor att studeras. Colostrom är den första näringskällan för nyfödda idisslare och förser dem med ett skydd mot infektioner. Hos idisslare, i jämförelse med människor, sker ingen överföring av immunskydd från mammorna till barnen vid födseln och vanligtvis så är upptaget av colostrom av de nyfödda lamorna litet på grund av att mammorna är stressade över att inte kunna producera tillräckligt med colostrom. Att förse de nyfödda lamorna med colostrom kan utgöra en viktig roll i passiv överföring av komponenter i immunförsvaret som kan skydda lamorna mot infektioner och därmed öka överlevnaden. I en pilotstudie, tänker vi testa effektiviteten av tillförsel av colostrum till de nyfödda lamorna som ett sätt att reducera diarréincidensen. Med hjälp av proteomik kommer vi också att analysera innehållet i colostrum för att i framtiden kunna förutspå hur olika agens kan användas för att kontrollera diarrésjukdom hos nyfödda lamor. Det här är ett multidisciplinärt samarbete mellan universitetet Mayor de San Andres och livsmedelsverket i Bolivia och Göteborgs universitet och Chalmers Tekniska Högskola i Sverige, med kompetens inom mikrobiologi, molekylärbiologi, genomik, proteomik, bioinformatik och veterinärmedicin. Målet är att skapa en kedja mellan jordbrukarna, det lokala sjukvårdssystemet och forskare i Bolivia. Detta kommer att ge en möjlighet till att studera diarrésjukdom genom klinisk och ekologisk mikrobiologi, genomik och bioinformatik. Frekvensen av diarré kommer att studeras hos nyfödda lamor från olika jordbrukare i regionen Curahuara de Carangas i Bolivia och uppföljningsstudier kommer även att genomföras. Detta projekt har för avsikt att identifiera de sjukdomsalstrande bakterier som orsakar diarrésjukdom hos lamor med hjälp av traditionell odling och moderna molekylärbiologiska mikrobiologiska metoder. Genom att använda storskalig sekvensmetodik (metagenomik) kommer bakteriefloran och bakteriediversiteten hos lamorna under det första året att kartläggas. Resultaten från det här projektet kommer dels att hjälpa jordbrukarna att minimera dödligheten hos nyfödda lamor, dels bidra till utveckling av förbättrade metoder för att hantera boskapsskötseln genom en ökad kunskap kring bakteriefloran. En förbättrad hantering av lamaboskapen i regionen kommer därmed bidra till en förbättrad uthållig verksamhet för jordbrukarna i hela Andean Altiplano regionen.

This will be realized via a trans-continental network. Such a network is required as PLEDs is a research area that requires strong collaborations between researchers with different background. The combined expertise from LiU and IITB is essential to achieve a transformative impact. If successful, this project will make low-cost Light-emitting diodes possible, contributing to improve the living conditions of the people living in Indian rural areas, where dangerous kerosene lamps are currently the primary source of lighting. This project will center on the critical problems that currently limit the development of PLEDs. This project is therefore intended as a means to foster technological advancement and sharing between LiU and IITB. The aim is to generate know-how in LiU and IITB, related to a repertoire of perovskite materials and suitable processing schemes, for development, characterization, and understanding of PLEDs. Detta projekt syftar till att utveckla ett långsiktigt samarbete mellan Linköpings Universitet (LiU) och Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) vilket ska öka kunskapen i det nya och spännande området Perovskit-baserade lysdioder (PLED) genom framsteg i materialvetenskap, komponentfysik, fotofysik och ingenjörskonst. Detta ska förverkligas i ett trans-kontinentalt nätverk. Ett nätverk som krävs då PLED är ett forskningsområde som kräver omfattande samarbete mellan forskare från olika discipliner. Den kombinerade expertisen från både LiU och IITB är nödvändig för att uppnå en betydande effekt. Om projektet lyckas, skulle lågkostnads-lysdioder kunna öka livskvaliteten hos människor på den indiska landsbygden. Människor vars alternativ idag är att använda farliga fotogenlampor. Detta projekt kommer att fokusera på de kritiska problem som för tillfället begränsar utvecklingen av PLED. Under de senaste fem åren har intresset för forskningsområdet Perovskiter fullkomligt exploderat. Som ett exempel har effektiviteten hos solceller baserade på Perovskiter på kort tid nått värden på över 20 %. Samma typ av Perovskiter kan även användas i lysdioder och trots att utvecklingen ännu är i en tidig fas, med de utmaningar det innebär, har Perovskiter en stor potential som materiel för lågkostnads-lysdioder. Detta projekt är därför menat att öka såväl den teknologiska nivån som utbytet mellan LiU och IITB. Målet är att generera sakkunskap inom både LiU och IITB rörande den uppsjö av Perovskit-material och lämpliga tillverkningstekniker för utveckling, karakterisering och förståelse för PLEDs. Med dessa centrala visioner i sinnet, ska projektet försöka uppnå följande mål: -Utveckla nya Perovskit-material lämpliga för PLED-applikationer, och öka förståelsen för materialens egenskaper. -Optimera prestandan hos PLED genom noggrann ingenjörskonst och undersöka komponentfysiken hos PLED. -Möjliggöra ett utbyte av både juniora och seniora forskare mellan LiU och IITB -Genom de planerade aktiviteterna försäkra sig att överföring av kunskap och teknik mellan Liu Och IITB verkligen sker.

The insect models are simple to perform (peeling a shrimp), cost efficient, but still unique in its complexity (readout of a metabolically active whole brain). The equipment is readily accessible and require low maintenance; smart phone, insects, and fluorescent small molecules. According to the Global Alliance of Health and Pollution, pollution, not disease, is the biggest killer in the developing world, taking more lives each year than malaria and HIV/AIDS. While adverse effects of pollutions are mainly studied by looking at the pulmonary and cardiovascular systems, effects on the central nervous system (CNS) are not broadly recognized. However, in recent studies, pollution has been associated with variety diseases of the CNS, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and neurodevelopmental disorders. The insect models will allow more cost efficient access to toxicity profiling and thereby potentially increase the number of tests performed. The goal is to detect, prevent and reduce the amount of neurotoxic challenges in the environment, water supplies, and foods. In the end of the project the technology will be tested in the field together with our collaborators in Pakistan and Tanzania. Målet med projektet är att utveckla translationella insektsbaserade modeller för att utvärdera föroreningars och parasiters påverkan på blod-hjärnbarriär (BBB) integriteten, på den neurokemiska balansen, samt induktionen av inflammation i hjärnan, effekter som kan relateras till psykiatriska sjukdomar, neurodegenerativa sjukdomar och dödsfall. Insektsmodellerna är enkla att utföra (som att skala räkor), kostnadseffektiva, men ändå unik i dess komplexitet (avläsning av en metaboliskt aktiv hel hjärna). Utrustningen är lättåtkomlig och kräver minimalt underhåll; mobiltelefon, insekter, och fluorescerande små molekyler. Dessa modeller kommer att möjliggöra tidig och effektiv bedömning av potentiella hjärngifter i miljö, mat och vattentäkter. Enligt den Global Alliance of Health and Pollution, föroreningar, inte sjukdomar, är den största dödsorsaken i utvecklingsländerna, minst tre gånger så många dör varje år av föroreningar än av malaria och HIV/AIDS. Under tiden hälso- och sjukvårdssystem i utvecklingsländerna står inför en enorm börda orsakade av luft- och vattenföroreningar så får forskningen om föroreningar minimalt intresse från det globala samhället. Medan effekter av föroreningar främst studeras på lung- och hjärtsystemen, så är effekter på det centrala nervsystemet (CNS) mycket mindre studerat. Detta beror troligen på att det är en &quot;Silent Killer&quot; som påverkar områden svåra att kvantifiera som effekter på t. ex. humör, beteende och IQ, vilka kan ta flera år att utveckla, och att studera hjärnan är svårt och kostnadskrävande. I senare studier har föroreningar förknippats med sjukdomar i CNS; Alzheimers sjukdom, Parkinsons sjukdom, och degenererande nervsjukdomar. Det har visats, att olika komponenter av luftföroreningar, såsom nanopartiklar, kan aktivera medfödda immunresponser i CNS. Föroreningar- och bakterie-inducerad neuroinflammation, oxidativ stress och förändringar i BBB bidrar till CNS patologin. Vi föreslår här att utveckla insektsmodeller för att identifiera och studera föroreningars och bakteriers effekter på BBB integritet, neuroinflammation, och neurokemiska balansen. Dessa modeller kommer att baseras på ex vivo-modeller som vi nyligen utvecklade för att förutsäga BBB permeabilitet, utflöde och läkemedelsmetabolism av läkemedel. Den intakta hjärnan dissekeras från insekten och placerades i ett provrör, som gör det enkelt att använda kontrollerade variationer av studieförhållanderna. I linje med våra tidigare studier på läkemedel, antar vi att de utvecklade modellerna kommer att vara mer prediktiva och kostnadseffektiva än de för närvarande använda modellerna. I själva verket finns det få modeller för att studera gifter påverkan på CNS, och de som används är antingen cellbaserade in vitro-modeller eller djurmodeller. De förstnämnda innehåller inte hela organet (t.ex. hjärnbarriären) och saknar information om hjärnans funktionalitet medan de senare modellernas komplexitet gör det svårt att koppla exponering till föroreningens neurogiftighet samt begränsas av etiska överväganden av att använda däggdjur i experimentella försök. En framgångsrik utveckling av insektsbaserade modeller kommer att ge en mer kostnadseffektiv tillgång till profilering av potentiella gifter och potentiellt öka antalet tester utförda och samtidigt minska antalet studier som utförts på däggdjur. Målet är att upptäcka, förebygga och minska mängden neurotoxiska utmaningar, inklusive nanopartiklar (NP) och parasiter, i miljön, vattentäkter och livsmedel. I slutet av projektet planerar vi att testa tekniken i fält tillsammans med våra medarbetare i Pakistan och Tanzania.

To test for phylogenetic conservation, most promising compounds will be synthesized in larger amounts and tested in Drosophila for their effect on life span, motor function and learning and memory capacity.

The disease is most prevalent among the poor in low and middle income countries and the emergence of multi-drug resistant mycobacterial strains has made TB a serious public concern. A major hurdle in the treatment of TB is the complex multi-layered structure of the mycobacterial cell wall, of which the outermost hydrophobic mycolic acid layer limits the entry of the antibiotics into the cells. Mycobacteriophages gain entry into the microorganism with the help of different lytic enzymes active against the different layers of the cell wall. In this project, we intend to explore the possibility of using LysB, the enzyme hydrolysing the bonds in the mycolic acid layer, in inhibiting the bacterial growth and hence allowing the treatment with a lower antibiotic concentration during a shorter time. A number of LysB enzymes will be chosen by bioinformatics analysis in databases, their recombinant production, rational protein engineering based on molecular modelling studies, and evaluation in the absence and presence of an antibiotic, on growth inhibition and killing of the non-pathogenic M. smegmatis. The activity and stability of the most effective enzyme variant will be further studied in a liposome formulation used for drug delivery. Mykobakteriella infektioner kvarstår som de globalt mest dödliga och handikappande sjukdomarna. Den mest kända är tuberkulos (TB), spetälska och buruli-sår hos människor, och bovin tuberkulos hos nötkreatur som utlöses av mikroorganismer, inklusive Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. leprae, M. ulcerans, och M. bovis. TB är en dödlig smittsam andningsvägs-sjukdom och anses vara den näst vanligaste dödsorsaken efter HIV. Enligt statistiken från Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) 2013, har 9 miljoner personer utvecklat en aktiv TB-infektion, varav 1,5 miljoner dog. Det uppskattas att 1/3 av världens befolkning hyser en latent TB-infektion som kan bli aktiv när immuniteten sänks. Tuberkulos fortsätter att vara förhärskande i de flesta låg- och medelinkomst länder. Undernäring och otillfredsställande levnadsvillkor gör de fattiga mycket mottagliga för dessa infektioner. På senare tid med framväxten av multiresistent (480 000 fall år 2014) och omfattande resistenta stammar, har TB skapat allvarligare oro hos allmänheten, eftersom det finns färre eller ibland ingen effektiv behandling. Medan förekomsten av tuberkulos och andra sjukdomar har kontrollerats i Europa, förväntas den pågående flyktingkrisen ta in en hel del resistenta patogener. Behandling av tuberkulos kräver en långvarig (halv till ett år) medicinering med hjälp av en kombination av antibiotika som rifampicin, isoniazid H, streptomycin, etambutol och andra. Det största hindret för behandling av mykobakteriella infektioner är den komplexa cellväggsstrukturen som inte fritt tillåter antibiotika att komma in i cellerna för att utföra sin effekt. Å andra sidan finns det vissa virus (mycobakteriofager) som har möjlighet att komma in i bakterierna genom inverkan av olika enzymer (lysin) som hjälper till att bryta ner cellväggsskikten. Fagterapi kan därmed betraktas som en form av behandling av tuberkulos. Emellertid kan frisättning av innehållet i de mykobakteriella cellerna inuti lungorna leda till allvarliga inflammation- eller allergiska- reaktioner. Syftet med vårt projekt är att utvärdera användningen av en fag lysin (LysB) som bryter ner bindningar i det yttersta lagret (mykolsyra) av bakterierna, vilket kommer att förhindra bakterier från att växa ytterligare, och även leda till mindre mängd antibiotika behövs för att döda bakterierna. Arbetet kommer att innebära screening av mångfalden av LysB enzymer i databaser och deras kända aktiviteter. De lysiner som visar sig att vara mest aktiva kommer att produceras i laboratoriet med hjälp av rekombinant DNA-teknik. Modern teknik kommer att användas för ytterligare modifiering av enzymer för att förbättra deras aktivitet. Deras effekt kommer att testas i laboratoriet på en icke-patogen Mycobacterium-stam. Tester kommer också göras med hjälp av en kombination av enzymerna med antibiotika för att utvärdera eventuella förbättringar i hastigheten och graden av bakteriedödande effekt och även i koncentrationen av antibiotikum som krävs. Slutligen kommer den mest aktiva enzym-kandidaten (och ett antibiotikum) att testas i en formulering bestående av nanobärare företrädesvis för behandling av luftvägsinfektioner.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2016-05898-1 Sweden Mycobacterial infections remain among the globally most deadly and disabling diseases, the most common being tuberculosis (TB), a respiratory contiguous disease caused by a direct contact with the acid-fast bacterium, Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The disease is most prevalent among the poor in low and middle income countries and the emergence of multi-drug resistant mycobacterial strains has made TB a serious public concern. A major hurdle in the treatment of TB is the complex multi-layered structure of the mycobacterial cell wall, of which the outermost hydrophobic mycolic acid layer limits the entry of the antibiotics into the cells. Mycobacteriophages gain entry into the microorganism with the help of different lytic enzymes active against the different layers of the cell wall. In this project, we intend to explore the possibility of using LysB, the enzyme hydrolysing the bonds in the mycolic acid layer, in inhibiting the bacterial growth and hence allowing the treatment with a lower antibiotic concentration during a shorter time.

To this end we will use crushed seeds from the endogenic Moringa tree as a flocculating agent to clear water from pollutant particles, and solar assisted photocatalysis for chemical detoxification. The main objective is to make new bifunctional copper-zinc oxide photocatalysts with simple and sustainable methods that can degrade biorecalcitrant pollutants, e.g. dyes, pharmaceutics and consumer chemicals. The scientific rationale is based on synthesis of nanoscale pn-junctions to perform simultaneous oxidation and reduction reactions, employing a large fraction of solar light. A novelty of our approach is to adapt advanced scientific methods to simple conditions and make use of abundant materials. To facilitate transfer of project results we will build the project on existing collaborations with Kenya, primarily Uni Eldoret, where we deployed previous water cleaning technologies and helped to build up a network and laboratory resources. The overall goal is to improve on methods to purify water sustainable technologies, and to promote African research in this field. The project is divided into five different work packages distributed over 4 years, and involves PhD students, undergraduate students and researches in Uppsala and Kenya. This is complemented by workshops and dissemination activities to promote the uptake of the technology developed in the project. Vattenrening är idag en av de viktigaste utmaningarna för kontroll av föroreningar i vår miljö, vilket bl. a. uppmärksammas i FNs resolution 64/292 från 2010. I utvecklingsländer är orent vatten en vanlig dödsorsak; speciellt bland barn. Vatten är orsak till sociala problem, till exempel kvinnor som inte vågar uppsöka toalett eller hämta vatten på grund av risk för överfall. Vatten är sedan urminnes tider källa till väpnade konflikter. Effektiva sätt att rena vatten är därför av globalt intresse. De processer och tekniker som finns i dagsläget minskar kraftigt föroreningar, men är ofta antingen inte utbyggda eller tillräckliga i många delar av världen. Svårnedbrytbara kemikalier, t.ex. färgämnen från textilindustri, läkemedelsrester, hushållskemikalier, etc. är speciellt problematiska - både för människa och miljö. En del av dessa är toxiska och kan inte behandlas med biologiska vattenreningstekniker eftersom de är giftiga för mikroorganismer i den biologiska bädden. De långsiktiga effekterna för flertalet av dessa ämnen är i stort outredda. Alternativa kemiska behandlingsmetoder blir därför mer och mer vanligt. Så kallade avancerade oxidationsprocesser (AOP; 'Advanced oxidation processes' på engelska) hör till denna klass av metoder. De är effektiva mot en stor klass av förorening inklusive svårnedbrytbara kemiska föreningar. AOP tekniker har förmåga att uppfylla de allt strängar miljökrav och energieffektivitet som tillämpas globalt, samtidigt som de effektivt kan rena vatten. Till exempel, ozon och UV-behandling har nyligen tillämpats för att sanera bakteriella föroreningar i dricksvatten i Östersund och Skellefteå. Fotokatalytisk vattenrening är en miljövänlig teknik som endast behöver solljus för att bryta ned kemiska och biologiska föroreningar. I själva verket kan oxidationspotentialen för fotokatalys vara högre än för både t.ex. ozon och väteperoxid (som vanligen används som desinfektionsmedel på sjukhus). Trots omfattande forskningsinsatser för att utveckla solljusaktiva AOP-tekniker är deras effektivitet idag för låg för att på allvar kunna ersätta befintliga tekniker. Det finns dock principiella fördelar med solljusdriven AOP-teknik, bl. a. hur reaktiva radikaler kan produceras och anpassas för specifika krav. De främsta nackdelarna med solljusdrivna AOP-tekniker, inklusive fotokatalytisk vattenrening, är att de måste användas i kombination med andra tekniker för att ta bort grumlighet (partikular substanser), och att det för närvarande är alltför ineffektiva för behandling av stora koncentrationer av förorenande ämnen. Trots detta kan användning av solljusdriven AOP-teknik redan idag anses som mogen att användas som förbehandlingssteg för att accelerera nedbrytning av svårnedbrytbara föroreningar i små koncentrationer; speciellt för småskalig användking. I detta projekt ska vi kombinera två metoder att rena vatten: 1) flockning av partikelföroreningar med proteiner extraherade ut krossade Moringafrön, samt 2) soldriven fotokatalytisk oxidation av organiska föroreningar. På så sätt kan vi lösa ett av problemen med solljusdriven fotokatalys av grumligt vatten som nämns ovan, dvs. vi kan på ett enkelt sätt som är lämpligt för att rena små mängder vatten utan tillsats av kemikalier eller mekaniska filtreringssteg ta bort pariklar från vatten och göra det klart och transparent, och därför lämpligt att lysa genom med solljus. Vi avser använda nya koppar-zink katalysatorer som tillverkas med en enkel och miljövänlig metod och som kan utnyttja en större andel av solljusspektrumet än nuvarande titandioxid-katalysatorer. Skulle projektet vara lyckosamt skulle fotokatalytiska metoder på allvar kunna användas för rening av gråvatten, eller vatten som passerat ett flockuleringssteg. En nyhet i vårt angreppssätt är att vi utvecklar avancerade material med hållbara metoder och som är förhållandevis enkla att tillverka.

Since MBD is a result of several interconnected social, political and economic factors in a globalised world, the problem should be analysed from different disciplines and at a cross-national level. Arguably, a nuanced understanding of the phenomenon will not be achieved by relying on one theoretical perspective only, the tools of one discipline or by focusing on a single level of analysis. Rather, a broad grip, an interdisciplinary approach and multi-level analysis is needed. Causal processes relevant to migration operate on multiple levels simultaneously. Thus, this project utilises competence from the disciplines: applied ethics, development studies and educational research to compare health labor mobility in three countries: the Philippines, Sweden and Indonesia. Methodwise, both descriptive and analytical studies are employed. And, the constellation of countries represented in the project enables fruitful comparisons of MBD in developed and developing countries. More specifically, researchers in the project (1) take stock on drivers behind and effects of care worker emigration, (2) map and assess different strategies regarding human resource management and labor mobility in the health care sector and (3) evaluate the prospects of global resource sharing and health governance. Kompetensflykt utgör ett av de största hoten mot grundläggande mänskliga rättigheter till hälsa och kvalitativ vård. Storskalig utvandring av högutbildade personer från underutvecklade till mer välmående regioner är ett av globaliseringens många ansikten (Docquier och Rapoport, 2011) och drabbar vårdsektorn i redan utsatta regioner. Massutvandringen av barnmorskor, sjuksköterskor och läkare från åg- och medelinkomstländer till rikare länder kallas ofta &quot;Medical Brain Drain&quot; och har pekats ut som ett hinder i vägen för att Milleniummålen för hälsa ska kunna uppnås (International Organisation for Migration, 2010). Även om kompetensflyktsflykten generellt uppfattas som ett akut problem, finns det många olika uppfattningar om vad problemet består i och på vilka sätt det bör lösas. Framförallt saknas det enighet om vem som ska hållas ansvarig för kunskapsflykten och dess effekter. Målet med det här forskningsprojektet är att i en tvärvetenskaplig projektgrupp med medlemmar från Indonesien, Filippinerna och Sverige arbeta fram effektiva, rättvisa och hållbara lösningar på ett omfattande problem med många bottnar. Detta görs genom att (1) orsaker bakom- och effekter av den både storskaliga och ensidiga utvandringen av vårdpersonal studeras, (2) strategier för hantering av medicinsk personal och vårdpersonal och mobilitet inom hälsosektorn kartläggs och utvärders liksom (3) att en modell för gemensamt, överstatligt ansvarstagande för vårdpersonal som en global resurs diskuteras. Ett viktigt bidrag är att projektet belyser ett gemensamt problem ur ett avsändar och mottagar perspektiv samtidigt. De tre länderna som ingår i studien påverkas alla av migration inom vårdsektorn men på olika sätt. Indonesien är ett så kallat avsändarland som har drabbats hårt av att den vårdpersonal som utbildats i landet sökt arbete utomland men även av att få vill arbeta på landsbygden. I syfte att dämpa balansera behovet av vårdpersonal i landet har olika åtgärder införts som begränsar högutbildad vårdpersonals möjligheter att fritt välja var de vill arbeta. Ett exempel på en begränsande åtgärd är ett krav att all nyutexaminerad vårdpersonal ska tjänstgöra i landet under en viss tid. I skarp kontrast är Fliippinerna det land som totalt sett är den största enskilda avsändaren av sjuksköterskor och som avsiktligt utbildar fler sjuksköterskor och läkare än vad som behövs för att täcka landets vårdbehov. Denna strategi kallas ofta &quot;vårdexport&quot;. Sverige är ett mottagarland som med en åldrande befolkning har ett stort behov för arbestkraft utifrån för att täcka ett ökat vård- och omsorgsbehov. Genom att ta ett samlat grepp på olika intressen och konsekvenser av olika strategier (på individnivå liksom på nationellnivå) kommer vi inom detta projekt att kunna visa på hur olika länder bidrar till en omfattande kunskapsflykt och snedfördelning av vårdresurser. Mot bakgrund av filosofen Iris Marion Youngs teori om moraliskt ansvar (Young, 2006, 2011) kommer vi även att kunna presentera en modell för hur ansvar bör fördelas och varför. Genom att vi utnyttjar kompetens från den tillämpade etiken, från utvecklingsstudier och utbildningsvetenskap liksom erfarenheter i tre länder kan vi bidra med en nyanserad bild av ett mycket komplext problem. Projektet kommer att visa på länders olika förutsättningar och möjligheter att hantera problemet med kompetensflykt. En övergripande mål är att lyfta goda sätt att hantera vårdpersonal och mobilitet som kan tillämpas generellt.

It examines perenniality as an agricultural trait that could help increase the resilience of smallholder farmers, namely by strengthening their adaptive capacity to climate change, improving soil conditions, and reducing agricultural inputs. The proposed project makes uses of the latest developments in perennial crop breeding and is based on comparative on-farm experimentations of different perennial systems and crops – with a strong focus on perennial sorghum, rice, and pigeon peas – under varying social and environmental conditions in Uganda. Concretely, the project will study (1) the soil carbon sequestration potential of different perennial crops and perennial systems; (2) the livelihood implications of those crops and systems, and (3) the socio-ecological conditions facilitating and/or counteracting their adoption. The project starts from an explicitly transdisciplinary entry point, bringing together social and natural scientists, and adopting a strong participatory approach to involved smallholders. Employed methods will include soil carbon content analysis, interviews, focus groups, narrative walks , policy analysis and a mapping of the formal and informal institutional landscape. Involved partners are LUCSUS, Makerere University, NARO, and the Land Institute. Småbrukare i Afrika söder om Sahara är en av de grupper som drabbas allra hårdast av de globala klimatförändringarna och situationen förväntas förvärras ytterligare i framtiden. På stora delar av kontinenten är samtidigt markförstörelse och jordutarming omfattade problem med stora negativa effekter på jordbruksproduktivitet och levnadsförhållanderna på landsbygden. Givet den afrikanska jordbrukssektors betydelse för försörjning, matsäkerhet och utveckling krävs radikalt nya strategier och tankesätt för att främja jordbrukets anpassning till nya förutsättningar. En sådan strategi som föreslagits är en övergång till perenna grödor och odlingssystem. Stora framsteg har redan gjorts för att utveckla perenna varianter av basgrödor som vete, hirs och ris. Genom förtjänster såsom minskat behov av gödning och plöjning, förbättrad jordkvalitet och kolbindning samt minskad sårbarhet för torka har perenna grödor potential att bidra till ökad resiliens och klimatanpassning bland afrikanska småbrukare. Syftet med det föreslagna projektet är att utvärdera denna potential genom jämförande studier av försöksodlingar med perenna grödor i olika odlingssystem i Uganda. Fokus kommer att vara på perenna varianter av hirs, ris och duvärt, vilka tillhör de grödor där stora framsteg gjorts inom växtförädling vid Land Institute (som är deltagare i det föreslagna forskningsprojektet). Försöksodlingarna kommer att utformas, genomföras och utvärderas tillsammans med småbrukare och på platser med varierande socio-ekologiska och agro-ekologiska förhållanden. Projektets fokus är att undersöka: 1) potentialen hos olika perenna grödor och odlingssystem att bidra till kolbindning i jorden; 2) fördelar och nackdelar dessa grödor och system från ett småbrukarperspektiv; och 3) socio-ekologiska förutsättningar och möjliga utmaningar för upptag och vidare spridning av perenna system bland småbrukare. Projektet bygger på en förståelse av småbrukssystem som sammanlänkade sociala och ekologiska system och utgår från en uttalat transdisciplinär ansats. För att skapa en integrerad förståelse sociala, ekonomiska och biofysiska dimensioner av perenna system bygger samtliga steg i forskningsprocessen på tvärvetenskaplig analys och småbrukares aktiva deltagande. Genom en bättre förståelse för lokala preferenser och prioriteringar när det gäller grödor och odlingssystem vill vi undvika tidigare tendenser att utveckla jordbruksteknik på avstånd från avsedda slutanvändare, vilket ofta resulterat i lösningar som är bristfälligt anpassade till lokala förutsättningar och villkor. Särskild uppmärksamhet riktas mot genusaspekter, liksom andra sociala variabler som påverkar individuella möjligheter och strategier i relation till teknikanvändning. Tillämpade forskningsmetoder inkluderar analys av kolbindning i marken, intervjuer, fokusgruppdiskussioner, policyanalys samt kartläggning av formella och informella institutioner som påverkar teknikspridning. Genom dess tvärvetenskapliga orientering, empiriskt grundade ansats och fokus på en afrikansk jordbrukskontext bidrar det föreslagna projektet till tidigare forskning kring perenna grödor och odlingssystem, vilken är begränsad och främst naturvetenskapligt orienterad. Projektet, som leds av LUCSUS vid Lunds universitet och inkluderar partners från Makerere University och NARO i Uganda, och Land Institute i USA, ämnar bidra till uppbyggandet av ett starkt internationellt och tvärvetenskapligt nätverk för långsiktigt forskningssamarbete kring perenna grödor och odlingssystem. Resultaten från projektet kommer att bidra med värdefull kunskap för framtida förädling av perenna grödor angående vilken typ av egenskaper som är lämpliga, önskvärda och acceptabla för småbrukare under olika förhållanden.

Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) has thus been advocated instead of continuous flooding. However, AWD does not guarantee high yields and promotes decomposition of soil organic carbon (SOC) and loss of nutrients, reducing fertility. Moreover, the lack of flooding impairs the multi-functionality of rice systems (provision of services other than yield, e.g. fish-rice farming). With this project, we will address this trade-off between water savings, rice productivity and provision of ecosystem services (ES). By budgeting the water cost of SOC protection (which we name ‘brown water’), and by considering the advantages of water-related multi-functionality, we will approach the issue of rice sustainability in a more holistic way. We test the hypothesis that water savings from AWD are offset by reduced soil fertility and ES provision in 3 countries, 2 of which have large yield gaps (Tanzania, Viet Nam, and Italy). Soil analyses at our sites and global meta-analyses in combination to process models will provide the first estimate of the ‘brown water’ footprint of rice production. Results will be shared by engaging children, farmers, and the general public. We will raise awareness of the intimate connections between rice and its soil, and ultimately global climate, suggesting more sustainable practices and climate change adaptation measures. Ris är en viktig näringskälla för 3 miljarder människor, särskilt i utvecklingsländerna. Risfält täcker en yta tre gånger större än Sverige och konsumerar mer vatten än någon annan gröda. I vissa områden, är risodling ohållbar på grund av dess höga krav på bevattning. Under de kommande åren, med minskade sötvattenresurser och ökad efterfrågan på vatten, kommer risproduktionen bli ohållbar i många regioner som producerar ris, vilket motiverar forskning om alternativ vattenförvaltning och förbättrade rissorter som tål begränsad vattentillgång. I synnerhet har omväxlande perioder med och utan vatten, istället för traditionell kontinuerlig bevattning, föreslagits som en alternativ bevattningsstrategi för att bibehålla en hög produktion som fortfarande är miljömässigt hållbar. Detta kan spara vatten genom att minska bevattningsvolymerna, men kan också ge oönskade konsekvenser. Genom att minska varaktigheten av översvämningarna, kommer jordarna i allt högre grad torka och syresättas. Mer aeroba förhållanden ökar den mikrobiella aktivitet i marken och därmed gynnas frisättningen av koldioxid och näringsämnen. Som ett resultat kan kol och näringsämnen i jordarna användas av mikroorganismer och därmed gå förlorade. Markens kol som förloras till atmosfären bidrar till utsläpp av växthusgaser, medan näringsämnen frigörs i mobila former och transporteras ut i floder och sjöar, vilket kan leda till försämrad vattenkvalitet. Förlusten av näringsämnen minskar markkvaliteten och slutligen ris produktionen. Minskade perioder med vatten påverkar också den biologisk mångfalden i risfält negativt, med negativa effecter på flera olika ekosystemtjänster. Bland annat minskar antalet naturliga fiender mot skadegörare. Möjligheterna att integrera fisk med risproduktionen minskar också, vilket leder till en minskad matproduktion. Syftet med det här projektet är att skapa en bättre förståelse för avvägning mellan vattenbesparing, produktivitet och jordkvalitet. Genom att beakta ”vattenkostnaden” för att skydda markens kolinnehåll och andra ekosystemtjänster, kommer vi att närma oss frågan om hållbar risproduktion på ett mer holistiskt sätt jämfört med tidigare metoder. Vi utgår från hypotesen att jordens kolinnehåll och näringskoncentration ökar med längden på översvämningen i ett visst klimat. Därför förväntar vi oss att vattenbesparingar också orsakar ett minskat kolinnehåll i marken. Eftersom markens kolinnehåll är kopplat till jordkvalitet och produktivitet, förväntar vi oss också att högre kolinnehåll i jordar leder till högre risproduktion. För att testa dessa hypoteser har tre länder (Tanzania, Viet Nam, och Italien) valts ut att representera globala skillnader i klimat, sociala faktorer och jordbruksmetoder. Som ett första steg, kommer jordprover att analyseras för att belysa hur mycket kol som lagras marker med traditionell bevattning, med mer intensiva rismetoder och med kortare bevattningsperioder, och i jordar med naturlig vegetation. I ett andra steg kommer dessa resultat tillsammans med publicerad data, skalas upp till en global nivå i avseende på risproduktion, markinnehåll av kol samt vattenförbrukning. Utifrån de första två stegen kommer vi att utvärdera hur hållbar risproduktionen är i de respektive länderna samt globalt i avseende på hur man balanserar vattenförbrukning och kolinnehåll i marken. Dessa beräkningar kommer att utföras med olika matematiska modeller som simulerar risproduktivitet i samband med vattenanvändning och mark-kol processer. Slutligen, med hjälp av klimatprognoser, kommer vi att utvärdera hållbarheten i olika risproduktionssystem under framtida klimatscenarier och ge indikationer på möjliga anpassningsstrategier. Forskningen kommer att diskuteras på konferenser och workshops.

This will affect the functioning of most ecosystems, but the most severely affected include the world’s poorest and food security challenged nations, including Ethiopia. Microorganisms control decomposition of organic matter (OM), and dominate the terrestrial contribution to the global carbon (C) cycle. Water availability is a decisive regulator of microbial processes, but they also depend on C-availability, creating a strong feedback with plants. We will investigate how microbial processes are influenced by changes in water availability across a gradient from cool moist to hot arid Ecosystems in Ethiopia. We will evaluate the effect of different land-uses and field experimental drought on the resilience of microbial functions. Insights will be included in ecosystem models, and used to guide land-use policy in Ethiopia. The aims are: 1. Defining the microbial moisture dependence, and the resilience of the microbial functions to rewetting a soil. 2. Determining both long-term (gradient across Ethiopia) and short-term (within site field-experiments) legacy effects of drought and dry-wet cycles on 1. 3.

Globalt styrs ekosystemens produktivitet av fotosyntes som drivs av primärproducenter, och i terrestra ekosystem är det växter som helt dominerar. Idag vet vi mycket om de viktiga miljöfaktorerna som styr växternas produktion, vilket möjliggör en ganska god säkerhet i vår förmåga att förutspå effekten av miljöförändringar på växternas ekosystembidrag. Vi vet problematiskt mycket mindre om hur ekosystemet regleras under mark. När en växt investerar kol i sina rötter för att nå de näringsämnen (kväve, fosfor, osv.) deras tillväxt begränsas av läcker en del ut som löst organisk material i marken. Likaså, när en växt dör, faller blad, grenar och annat växtmaterial ned på marken. För att hålla de mineral som begränsar växternas produktion i omlopp finns därmed ett ständigt behov av att omsätta organiska material. Det organiska materialet används som mat av främst mikroorganismsamhället i mark, svampar och bakterier. En del av materialet används för energi, och omvandlas till sina beståndsdelar – koldioxid (CO2), och mineralnäringsämnen, medan en annan del används för tillväxt för att bilda nya mikroorganismer. Den fraktion av det organiska material som används för att bilda nya mikrober utgör även det som kan anrikas i jord i ekosystem, och kan komma att bilda tjocka humuslager i t ex nordliga ekosystem. Mikroorganismer är de agenter som utför nedbrytning av organiskt material i mark, som dominerar terrestra ekosystems bidrag till det globala kol (C)-kretsloppet. Vattentillgänglighet är en av de mest dominanta styrfaktorerna för mikroorganism-aktivitet, som avgör om terrestra ekosystem kommer att blir en sänka eller källa för kol till atmosfären. Vidare är mikroorganismerna beroende av tillgängligt C, framförallt från växter, vilket skapar en viktig återkoppling mellan växter och nedbrytare. Men även om vi redan nu inser att en förändring av kolbalanser i våra ekosystem troligtvis kommer att orsakas av klimatförändringen, har vi idag otillräckliga kunskaper för att kunna förutspå netto-balansen mellan förändringar i växtproduktion och i nedbrytning. Terrestra ekosystem väntas utsättas för mer extrema variationer i nederbörd och temperaturer som ett resultat av klimatförändringen vilket kommer att orsaka mer intensiva tork- och regnepisoder. Detta kommer att i grunden påverka terrestra ekosystems funktion och de ekosystem för förväntas drabbas värst av dessa förändringar är tropiska, torra ekosystem, inklusive några av de fattigaste och mest hungerdrabbade länderna i världen, bl a Etiopien. Det övergripande målet med detta projekt är att förstå hur torka och variation i vattentillgänglighet påverkar mikroorganismer och de processer de styr i mark utmed en gradient från varma och torra till svalare system med mer nederbörd i Etiopien. Inom varje ekosystem ska vi (i) undersöka hur markanvändning – jordbruk, betesmark, eller naturlig vegetation – påverkar mikrobernas svar på torka och variation av vattenhalt i jord, och (ii) utröna hur experimentell torka i fältförsök inom varje försöksområde påverkar mikroorganismernas resiliens mot torka, samt (iii) utvärdera hur Etiopiens nuvarande arbete med att återskapa förstörd mark påverkar markmikroorganismernas resiliens mot torka. Denna förståelse ska byggas in i ekosystemmodeller, och genom samarbete med ett Etiopiskt jordbruksinstitut, användas för att vägleda och utveckla Etiopiens nationella policy för att möta klimatförändringar. De specifika målen är: 1. Att definiera (i) det direkta beroendet av vattentillgänglighet för mikrobiella processer, och (ii) mikroorganismerna resiliens mot återfuktning efter torka. 2. Att bestämma hur långtida skillnader (långs en ekosystemgradient inom Etiopien) och korttida skillnader (fältförsök med experimentell torka inom Etiopiska ekosystem) av torka och torkcykel-regimen påverkar (i) det direkta beroendet av vattentillgänglighet, och (ii) det mikrobiella svaret på återfuktning. 3.

Globalt styrs ekosystemens produktivitet av fotosyntes som drivs av primärproducenter, och i terrestra ekosystem är det växter som helt dominerar. Idag vet vi mycket om de viktiga miljöfaktorerna som styr växternas produktion, vilket möjliggör en ganska god säkerhet i vår förmåga att förutspå effekten av miljöförändringar på växternas ekosystembidrag. Vi vet problematiskt mycket mindre om hur ekosystemet regleras under mark. När en växt investerar kol i sina rötter för att nå de näringsämnen (kväve, fosfor, osv.) deras tillväxt begränsas av läcker en del ut som löst organisk material i marken. Likaså, när en växt dör, faller blad, grenar och annat växtmaterial ned på marken. För att hålla de mineral som begränsar växternas produktion i omlopp finns därmed ett ständigt behov av att omsätta organiska material. Det organiska materialet används som mat av främst mikroorganismsamhället i mark, svampar och bakterier. En del av materialet används för energi, och omvandlas till sina beståndsdelar – koldioxid (CO2), och mineralnäringsämnen, medan en annan del används för tillväxt för att bilda nya mikroorganismer. Den fraktion av det organiska material som används för att bilda nya mikrober utgör även det som kan anrikas i jord i ekosystem, och kan komma att bilda tjocka humuslager i t ex nordliga ekosystem. Mikroorganismer är de agenter som utför nedbrytning av organiskt material i mark, som dominerar terrestra ekosystems bidrag till det globala kol (C)-kretsloppet. Vattentillgänglighet är en av de mest dominanta styrfaktorerna för mikroorganism-aktivitet, som avgör om terrestra ekosystem kommer att blir en sänka eller källa för kol till atmosfären. Vidare är mikroorganismerna beroende av tillgängligt C, framförallt från växter, vilket skapar en viktig återkoppling mellan växter och nedbrytare. Men även om vi redan nu inser att en förändring av kolbalanser i våra ekosystem troligtvis kommer att orsakas av klimatförändringen, har vi idag otillräckliga kunskaper för att kunna förutspå netto-balansen mellan förändringar i växtproduktion och i nedbrytning. Terrestra ekosystem väntas utsättas för mer extrema variationer i nederbörd och temperaturer som ett resultat av klimatförändringen vilket kommer att orsaka mer intensiva tork- och regnepisoder. Detta kommer att i grunden påverka terrestra ekosystems funktion och de ekosystem för förväntas drabbas värst av dessa förändringar är tropiska, torra ekosystem, inklusive några av de fattigaste och mest hungerdrabbade länderna i världen, bl a Etiopien. Det övergripande målet med detta projekt är att förstå hur torka och variation i vattentillgänglighet påverkar mikroorganismer och de processer de styr i mark utmed en gradient från varma och torra till svalare system med mer nederbörd i Etiopien. Inom varje ekosystem ska vi (i) undersöka hur markanvändning – jordbruk, betesmark, eller naturlig vegetation – påverkar mikrobernas svar på torka och variation av vattenhalt i jord, och (ii) utröna hur experimentell torka i fältförsök inom varje försöksområde påverkar mikroorganismernas resiliens mot torka, samt (iii) utvärdera hur Etiopiens nuvarande arbete med att återskapa förstörd mark påverkar markmikroorganismernas resiliens mot torka. Denna förståelse ska byggas in i ekosystemmodeller, och genom samarbete med ett Etiopiskt jordbruksinstitut, användas för att vägleda och utveckla Etiopiens nationella policy för att möta klimatförändringar. De specifika målen är: 1. Att definiera (i) det direkta beroendet av vattentillgänglighet för mikrobiella processer, och (ii) mikroorganismerna resiliens mot återfuktning efter torka. 2. Att bestämma hur långtida skillnader (långs en ekosystemgradient inom Etiopien) och korttida skillnader (fältförsök med experimentell torka inom Etiopiska ekosystem) av torka och torkcykel-regimen påverkar (i) det direkta beroendet av vattentillgänglighet, och (ii) det mikrobiella svaret på återfuktning. 3.

Replacement of native vegetation by industrial plantations of fast-growing exotic trees, such as eucalypts, lead to depletion of soil water reserves, affecting nearby agricultural areas. A representative case is Cambodia, where 80% of the population lives in rural areas and are dependent on rainfed agriculture and resources from forests for their livelihood. Taking a landscape perpective, and using a process-based climate-ecosystem model in combination with extensive field measurements and distributed data, we will assess the benefits and risks of alternative management choices for forest restoration and smart (i.e. climate adapted) agriculture for the main bioclimatic zones of Cambodia and for the country as a whole, highlighting climate-related risks such as droughts and wildfires, and accounting for uncertainty. Alternative management scenarios will be developed in consultation with farmers, foresters, local and national authorities and other stakeholders, with whom findings will also be disseminated and discussed.

Dessa traditionella näringar är idag under press pga befolkningstillväxt, gruvindustrin, bevattningsjordbruk, biobränslen och viltvård och aktuella klimatförändringar med resultat att lokal och nationell hållbarhet undergrävs och att miljömässig, social och kulturell motståndskraft eroderas. I projektet dokumenterar vi dessa utmaningar och hur samhällen över tid svarat på dem; i synnerhet när det gäller traditionell praxis och kulturarv och deras relevans för hållbarhet i relation till klimatförändringar. Afrikanska landskap är har en lång historia av samverkan mellan människor, eld, betande djur; idag stödjer de miljontals människors hushållsekonomi, samtidigt som de också är en livsmiljö för spektakulär megafauna som drar till sig stora mängder afrikanska intäkter från naturvård och turism. Men det krävs en detaljerad förståelse av samspelet mellan olika ekosystemkomponenter, och framför allt hur policy när det gäller markanvändning påverkar både ekologiskt samspel såväl som fattigdom och ojämlikhet. Detta är speciellt relevant för områden vars naturresurser används av flera intressenter, därför kommer vi här fokusera på nationalparker. Nationalparker etablerades i början av 1900-talet av koloniala myndigheterna för att bevara djurliv och landskap, med idag förväntas dessa naturskyddsområden uppfylla också sociala och ekonomiska mål, vilket innebär att de är omdebatterade. Genom att studera hur dessa landskap ekologiskt och socialt förändrats från perioden innan naturskydd och fram till idag, hoppas vi kunna bättre förstå vad som ligger framför oss under de kommande 50-100 åren, och därmed även kunna planera för kommande förändringar. Med detta i åtanke kommer vi att samarbeta med de lokala samhällena och olika intressenter kring lokala värden i landskapet, hushållens utmaningar, lokal ekologisk kunskap och strategier för framtiden. Vi kommer att integrera vetenskap och lokala kunskaper genom gemensamma öppna workshops, sommarskolor och utbildningar.

Local livelihoods range from intensive agriculture to livestock herding & hunting-and-gathering, coupled with employment in tourism, conservation, or mineral extraction.

Detta 3-åriga projekt integrerar miljövetenskap, ekologi, arkeologi och historia samt juniora och seniora forskare från Sverige, Tanzania och Storbritannien som ett svar på detta akuta behov. Vi studerar människans miljöinteraktioner i nordvästra Tanzania under de senaste 300 åren för att fördjupa förståelsev av hur människor, djur, ekosystem och jordmåner påverkats av klimat och markanvändning. Studieområdet innefattar värdsarven Serengeti och Ngorongoro Crater kända för sin höga mångfald i växt och djurliv. I området talas fyra stora afrikanska språkfamiljer, med interagration under nästan två tusen år, resulterande i en mosaik av boskapskötsel, småskaligt jordbruk och jakt och samling. Dessa traditionella näringar är idag under press pga befolkningstillväxt, gruvindustrin, bevattningsjordbruk, biobränslen och viltvård och aktuella klimatförändringar med resultat att lokal och nationell hållbarhet undergrävs och att miljömässig, social och kulturell motståndskraft eroderas. I projektet dokumenterar vi dessa utmaningar och hur samhällen över tid svarat på dem; i synnerhet när det gäller traditionell praxis och kulturarv och deras relevans för hållbarhet i relation till klimatförändringar. Afrikanska landskap är har en lång historia av samverkan mellan människor, eld, betande djur; idag stödjer de miljontals människors hushållsekonomi, samtidigt som de också är en livsmiljö för spektakulär megafauna som drar till sig stora mängder afrikanska intäkter från naturvård och turism. Men det krävs en detaljerad förståelse av samspelet mellan olika ekosystemkomponenter, och framför allt hur policy när det gäller markanvändning påverkar både ekologiskt samspel såväl som fattigdom och ojämlikhet. Detta är speciellt relevant för områden vars naturresurser används av flera intressenter, därför kommer vi här fokusera på nationalparker. Nationalparker etablerades i början av 1900-talet av koloniala myndigheterna för att bevara djurliv och landskap, med idag förväntas dessa naturskyddsområden uppfylla också sociala och ekonomiska mål, vilket innebär att de är omdebatterade. Genom att studera hur dessa landskap ekologiskt och socialt förändrats från perioden innan naturskydd och fram till idag, hoppas vi kunna bättre förstå vad som ligger framför oss under de kommande 50-100 åren, och därmed även kunna planera för kommande förändringar. Med detta i åtanke kommer vi att samarbeta med de lokala samhällena och olika intressenter kring lokala värden i landskapet, hushållens utmaningar, lokal ekologisk kunskap och strategier för framtiden.

A fact that was not explicitly acknowledged in the agreement but that has since been widely criticized by renowned scientists, is that the realization of the ambitious targets established in the deal is premised on the large-scale implementation world-wide of bioenergy carbon capture and storage (BECCS), a promising but as yet commercially unproven technology. BECCS is associated with a number of uncertainties of a technological, environmental, social, political and economical character and is likely to trigger intense and hard-to-resolve conflicts over land-use. The purpose of this social scientific project is twofold: To provide an assessment of the feasibility of a massive, global-scale implementation of BECCS, and to assess how BECCS can be implemented on a large scale in low-income countries without jeopardizing resilience, industries crucial for the self-sustenance of the local populations and sustainability projects such as REDD+, and that instead contributes to capacity building and poverty reduction. It will do so through a literature review and focus group interviews with key stakeholders in two countries – Sweden and Tanzania - that both rely heavily on the forest as a bioeconomical resource, but that differ radically in their industrial, governmental and economical structures and resources. Det internationella klimatmötet i Paris 2015 hyllades som ett historiskt tillfälle där världens politiker äntligen tog sitt ansvar för begränsa den globala temperaturökningen. Efteråt har dock flera forskare påpekat och kritiserat en öm punkt i klimatavtalet, nämligen att det förutsätter storskalig implementering globalt av så kallad BECCS – bioenergi med avskiljning och lagring av koldioxid. Det är en teknologi som på ett teoretiskt plan innebär enorma fördelar eftersom den bygger på idén om netto-negativa emissioner, det vill säga att man återtar redan gjorda koldioxidutsläpp från atmosfären genom att förbränna biomassa och deponerar den koldioxid som därmed frigörs, samt planterar motsvarande mängd ny biomassa. På ett praktiskt plan är den emellertid närmast helt oprövad och därtill förknippad med en mängd osäkerheter och risker. Bortsett från att BECCS-tekniken är teknologiskt osäker och rymmer flera avgörande problem i form av energiineffektivitet, så saknas det fortfarande kritisk analys av vilka sociala, industriella, ekonomiska och politiska effekter som kan tänkas uppstå om den implementeras på en skala som ens är i närheten av vad som förutsätts i Paris-avtalet. Klart är att BECCS tar enorma landarealer i anspråk för odling av biomassa som ska förbrännas, vilket riskerar hota biodiversitet och skapa konflikt med andra former av skogs- och landanvändning. I höginkomstländer lär detta ge upphov till allvarliga konflikter med etablerade industrier, vilka saknar kommersiella incitament att implementera tekniken, och naturintressen, och politiska diskussioner om rimliga trade-offs. I låginkomstländer är risken uppenbar att BECCS kommer att sätta press på fattiga människors livsuppehällen genom att göra stora land- och skogsområden otillgängliga vilka idag utgör en existentiell bas för miljontals hushåll, genom att hota biologisk mångfald och genom att konkurrera med andra typer av hållbarhetsprojekt så som exempelvis REDD+. Samtidigt är det rimligt att förutsätta att en hållbar och genomtänkt implementering av BECCS kan ge upphov till positiva utvecklingseffekter för såväl hög- som låginkomstländer, om den kombineras med rimliga finansiella och politiska styrningsmekanismer. Föreliggande studie utgår från den här problematiken och undersöker förutsättningarna för storskalig BECCSimplementering i Sverige och Tanzania, två länder som båda har skogen som en viktig del av samhällsekonomin och som har lämpliga geografiska förutsättningar för BECCS, men som skiljer sig åt radikalt vad gäller institutionella, politiska, industriella, ekonomiska och resursmässiga förutsättningar i övrigt. Vi kommer att analysera respektive lands möjlighet att implementera BECCS på ett sätt som inte hotar befintliga industrier, och jämföra hur ländernas diametralt skilda ekonomiska och industriella kapacitet påverkar förutsättningarna för hållbar BECCS-implementering. Syftet med studien är därför tvådelat: att 1) Ta reda på om BECCS alls är rimligt som en storskalig klimatåtgärd på global nivå, genom studien av två konkreta nationella fall, något som idag närmast helt saknas, och 2) Ta reda på vilka risker för nykoloniala, potentiellt destruktiva effekter för låginkomstländer som föreligger om BECCS ska implementeras på stor skala. Även om länder som Tanzania helt saknar moralisk skyldighet att agera värd för klimatåtgärder såsom BECCS, så kommer stora delar av deras landyta att behöva tas i anspråk för sådana syften om Parisavtalets löften ska kunna uppfyllas. Det är en samhällsvetenskaplig studie där vi kommer att kritiskt granska om BECCS ens kan anses vara politiskt och socialt möjligt att implementera på den skala som Paris-avtalet förutsätter, och om det är möjligt att göra på ett sätt som inte riskerar leda till ökad fattigdom i låginkomstländer utan tvärtom kopplas till insatser för ökad motståndskraft mot klimatförändringar och hållbar utveckling.

In recent years, migration across the world has seen unprecedented growth. Migrants or refugees usually originate from low-income countries, and settle either in neighbouring countries or within the country itself. This creates particular challenges for low-income settings, as the infrastructure and services available are limited and potentially cannot fulfil the needs of existing communities and large numbers of new arrivals. There is an urgent need to research migration as a social determinant of health . This application brings together three countries with different migration profiles: Ukraine with a high rate of internally displaced people, India with a high rate of seasonal cyclical migration and Sweden, which hosts large numbers of migrants. This state-of-the-art networking project will establish connections between institutions in these countries, expand them to other low-and middle-income countries. The format will include meetings, webinars, and world café presentations by junior researchers. The outcomes will include proposals to national and international funders. This collaboration  will promote high quality, timely and relevant research evidence in low-income settings focusing on migrants. After the three year funding, national and international research proposals will have been prepared and submitted. Migration har ökat globalt under de senaste åren. Migration har stor inverkan på människors liv, bland annat om deras hälsa och välbefinnande och i synnerhet de sociala bestämningsfaktorerna för hälsa. Migration är ett särskilt problem i låg- och medelinkomst inställningar där det är mindre infrastruktur för att hantera tillströmningen av människor.

Most cases are caused by dog bites, and deaths most commonly occur among the poorest or the most remote population, unable to receive post-exposure prophylaxis. In Southeast Asia, dogs are not only used as farm dogs, or as pets, but also increasingly as a food source, with dogs moved between countries. Rabies is a serious threat, and people involved in the dog value chain may be at increased risk, and the cross-border movements are complicating control efforts. This network project has a One Health approach, and will bring together stakeholders and researchers from Lao PDR, Cambodia, Vietnam, Sweden and France. Workshops will be arranged around dog population dynamics, disease incidence, improvement of laboratory technologies and the best control strategies.An ongoing vaccine intervention in Cambodia will be used to study dog populations and changes in vaccination covers. The risk of rabies along the dog value chain will be assessed, and we will evaluate a novel method for easier diagnosis. Knowledge, attitudes and practices will be studied among dog owners, dog butchers and traders, and policy makers. In conclusion, this project will contribute to reducing the risk for people by improving diagnostic capacities, providing basic knowledge of dog population dynamic needed for efficient vaccination strategies, and establishing a strong inter-sectoral network for rabies control in this region. Rabies är en mycket fruktad sjukdom med nära 100% dödlighet hos de som drabbas, men det är också möjligt att hindra sjukdomen helt genom att vaccinera efter virusexponering (post-exponeringsprofylax, PEP). I Asien dör ca 30 000 människor varje år av rabies, framförallt de fattigaste eller de som bor mest avlägset och som därför inte kan söka hjälp i tid. Även om alla däggdjur kan infekteras med rabies smittas människor vanligen via hundbett. I Sydostasien är hundar viktiga; inte bara som vakthundar eller familjehundar, utan allt vanligare även som föda, och de utgör därför också en viktig näringskälla och en marknadskedja med viktiga inkomstmöjligheter. Det förekommer också en omfattande handel av hundar över nationsgränserna, framförallt in till Vietnam från grannländerna.Detta projekt fokuserar på de tre grannländerna Vietnam, Kambodja och Laos som alla kämpar med höga rabiesorsakade dödsiffror hos människor, och höga kostnader för PEP. Trots att länderna kopplas samman via rörelser av hundar över gränserna, så har det hittills inte funnits mycket samarbete mellan forskare för att studera situationen i hela regionen. Detta projekt kommer att skapa ett nätverk av forskare från olika discipliner och länder för att etablera ett utökat samarbete specifikt runt rabiesbekämpning.Utöver att ordna workshops och utbildning för forskare och andra involverade i rabieskontroll, kommer projektet bidra till mer info. Den första forskningskomponenten i projektet är att studera dynamiken i hundpopulationer och hur immuniteten avtar efter en massvaccinationskampanj. Detta är viktigt för att förstå hur vaccinationskampanjer, den vanligaste insatsen mot rabies, ska utföras för att vara effektiva.Den andra komponenten fokuserar på hundköttsmarknaden och undersöker hur hundar rör sig över gränserna och vilka olika aktörer som är inblandade, samt deras kunskap om sjukdomen och hur de gör för att skydda sig själva. Vi ska även utvärdera hur stor andel hundar vi kan hitta på slakterier som redan bär på viruset och testa en ny metod for att provta hundskallar för att förenkla logistiken av prover från de ofta avlägsna områden där hundkött är som viktigast. Detta bidrar till en bättre bild av riskerna med hundslakt, samt till att förenkla framtida diagnostik.Till sist kommer vi även utvärdera kunskap och attityder avseende zoonoser i allmänhet och rabies i synnerhet, både hos hundägare, aktörer i hundköttskedjan, och politiker. Detta kommer att bidra till bättre informationskampanjer, framförallt i samband med massvaccineringar, men är också viktigt för att förstå hur riskmedvetenheten ser ut och hur politiker prioriterar problemet.Målet med projektet är att bidra till att minska rabies-risken för människor genom att täcka några av de kunskapsluckor som finns idag, samt skapa ett nätverk av internationella experter för utökat samarbete.

Bacteria are carriers of ARGs and associated with planktonic organisms, and studies of plankton and oceanic circulation may provide new insight into the spread of resistance. However, to establish fair and effective governance of antibiotic use, especially in developing countries where aquaculture production is an important source of livelihood and revenue, it is also necessary to know the driving forces behind the usage. Our aim is to build on existing research collaboration between scholars from Sweden, India and Kenya, and to initiate research networks and multistakeholder platforms, to produce a synthesis for policy recommendations for Asia and East Africa. The synthesis will be based on empirical results and we will address where and on which level remedies to prevent antibiotic resistance spread are most effective. More specifically, we will map the flow of antibiotics from production to use in order to identify points in the value chain where restrictions would be fair and effective. Further, we will use metagenomics to identify genetic fingerprints of the ARG pool from four aquaculture sites. The spread of specific ARG patterns are hypothesised to be linked to the dispersal of phytoplankton and will be projected by oceanographic connectivity models and verified with repeated sampling at different geographic scales. Antibiotika är förmodligen 1900-talets viktigaste upptäckt. I miljön finns naturligt bakterier som är resistenta mot antibiotika. Naturlig selektion gynnar bakterier som har förvärvat egenskapen att stå emot antibiotika och egenskapen sprids i bakteriepopulationer. Antibiotika resistens hos en bakterie kan förvärvas genom spontan mutation, genom överföring av genetiskt material från en annan bakterie, eller genom överföring via en vektor (en baketriofag). Ett av de stora problemen idag är den ökande resistensspridningen hos bakterier. Denna har ökat till följd av att mer antibiotika används och sprids i naturen. En av de stora källorna till antibiotika i miljön är modern akvakultur. Detta illustreras av den utbredda användningen av profylaktisk antibiotika inom branschen, särskilt i utvecklingsländerna, för att förebygga bakterieinfektioner. Användningen av ett stort antal olika antibiotikatyper i enorma mängder, inklusive icke-biologiskt nedbrytbar antibiotika, gör att antibiotika ackumuleras i sediment och vattenpelare och utövar ett selektivt tryck under långa tidsperioder. Detta har resulterat i en enorm ökning av antibiotikaresistenta bakterier i akvatiska miljöer, inkluderat arter som är patogener på fisk och skaldjur, och i ökad överföring av resistens till sjukdomsalstrande bakterier associerade med människan. Det krävs nu globala insatser för att främja mer omdömesgill användning av antibiotika inom vattenbruk, och ökad kunskap om hur antibiotikaresistens sprids i akvatisk miljö. Mot bakgrund av den stora avsaknaden av kunskap om användning av antibiotika och spridning av antibiotikaresistens i utvecklingsländer, vill i vårt multidisciplinära projekt bidra med kunskap för att minska spridningen av antibiotika i marin miljö, samt bidra till fördjupat, internationellt forskningssamarbete och vidgade internationella forskningsnätverk. Vi vill testa en ny hypotes som innebär att antibiotikaresistenta bakterier associerade med planktonorganismer sprids till andra marina områden via havsströmmar och därmed sprider resistensgener till nya bakteriepopulationer. Det finns studier som visar att skadliga bakterier kan nå global spridning på detta vis och det finns all anledning att anta att resistens kan färdas på samma sätt. Vårt övergripande mål är att i samarbete med Indiska och Östafrikanska forskare och intressenter utveckla en handlingsplan för etablerade vattenbruksmiljöer i Asien och för tillväxande vattenbruksmiljöer i östra Afrika. Handlingsplanen kommer att vara baserad på empiriska resultat från samhällsvetenskapliga och biologiska-oceanografiska studier. Med utgångspunkt i ett pågående forskningsprojekt om användning av antibiotika och förekomsten av antibiotikaresistens i fyra specifika vattenbruksområden i Indien, kommer vi att undersöka antibiotika från produktion till användande ur ett politiskt-ekonomiskt perspektiv. Vi kommer vidare att definiera ett genetiskt fingeravtryck för de fyra vattenbruksområdena. Det genetiska fingeravtrycket kommer troligen att bestå av densiteten och förekomsten av specifika antibiotika resistenta gener, men den kan även innehålla klonspecifika genetiska markörer hos bakterier som kan tänkas vara bärare av antibiotika resistens och som vanligtvis associerar med växtplankton. Själva insamlandet går till så att vi samlar in planktonprover och extraherar DNA. Sen gör vi en metagenom sekvensering. Den data vi erhåller bearbetas med bioinformatisk analys och jämförs med databaser som innehåller tusentals aminosyrasekvenser kända för att medföra antibiotika resistens. Vi kommer sen att försöka följa detta genetiska fingeravtryck från vart och ett av de undersökta områdena genom att modellera havsströmmar och placera ut provtagningspunkter för verifikation på bestämda platser. Dessa provtagningspunkter kommer att provtas frekvent under två säsonger och vi kommer att placera dem på ett sätt så att vi kan avgöra ifall antibiotika restistens sprids endast lokalt (1000 km).

Detta har resulterat i en enorm ökning av antibiotikaresistenta bakterier i akvatiska miljöer, inkluderat arter som är patogener på fisk och skaldjur, och i ökad överföring av resistens till sjukdomsalstrande bakterier associerade med människan. Det krävs nu globala insatser för att främja mer omdömesgill användning av antibiotika inom vattenbruk, och ökad kunskap om hur antibiotikaresistens sprids i akvatisk miljö. Mot bakgrund av den stora avsaknaden av kunskap om användning av antibiotika och spridning av antibiotikaresistens i utvecklingsländer, vill i vårt multidisciplinära projekt bidra med kunskap för att minska spridningen av antibiotika i marin miljö, samt bidra till fördjupat, internationellt forskningssamarbete och vidgade internationella forskningsnätverk. Vi vill testa en ny hypotes som innebär att antibiotikaresistenta bakterier associerade med planktonorganismer sprids till andra marina områden via havsströmmar och därmed sprider resistensgener till nya bakteriepopulationer. Det finns studier som visar att skadliga bakterier kan nå global spridning på detta vis och det finns all anledning att anta att resistens kan färdas på samma sätt. Vårt övergripande mål är att i samarbete med Indiska och Östafrikanska forskare och intressenter utveckla en handlingsplan för etablerade vattenbruksmiljöer i Asien och för tillväxande vattenbruksmiljöer i östra Afrika. Handlingsplanen kommer att vara baserad på empiriska resultat från samhällsvetenskapliga och biologiska-oceanografiska studier. Med utgångspunkt i ett pågående forskningsprojekt om användning av antibiotika och förekomsten av antibiotikaresistens i fyra specifika vattenbruksområden i Indien, kommer vi att undersöka antibiotika från produktion till användande ur ett politiskt-ekonomiskt perspektiv. Vi kommer vidare att definiera ett genetiskt fingeravtryck för de fyra vattenbruksområdena. Det genetiska fingeravtrycket kommer troligen att bestå av densiteten och förekomsten av specifika antibiotika resistenta gener, men den kan även innehålla klonspecifika genetiska markörer hos bakterier som kan tänkas vara bärare av antibiotika resistens och som vanligtvis associerar med växtplankton. Själva insamlandet går till så att vi samlar in planktonprover och extraherar DNA. Sen gör vi en metagenom sekvensering. Den data vi erhåller bearbetas med bioinformatisk analys och jämförs med databaser som innehåller tusentals aminosyrasekvenser kända för att medföra antibiotika resistens. Vi kommer sen att försöka följa detta genetiska fingeravtryck från vart och ett av de undersökta områdena genom att modellera havsströmmar och placera ut provtagningspunkter för verifikation på bestämda platser. Dessa provtagningspunkter kommer att provtas frekvent under två säsonger och vi kommer att placera dem på ett sätt så att vi kan avgöra ifall antibiotika restistens sprids endast lokalt (1000 km).

Bacteria are carriers of ARGs and associated with planktonic organisms, and studies of plankton and oceanic circulation may provide new insight into the spread of resistance. However, to establish fair and effective governance of antibiotic use, especially in developing countries where aquaculture production is an important source of livelihood and revenue, it is also necessary to know the driving forces behind the usage. Our aim is to build on existing research collaboration between scholars from Sweden, India and Kenya, and to initiate research networks and multistakeholder platforms, to produce a synthesis for policy recommendations for Asia and East Africa. The synthesis will be based on empirical results and we will address where and on which level remedies to prevent antibiotic resistance spread are most effective. More specifically, we will map the flow of antibiotics from production to use in order to identify points in the value chain where restrictions would be fair and effective. Further, we will use metagenomics to identify genetic fingerprints of the ARG pool from four aquaculture sites. The spread of specific ARG patterns are hypothesised to be linked to the dispersal of phytoplankton and will be projected by oceanographic connectivity models and verified with repeated sampling at different geographic scales. Antibiotika är förmodligen 1900-talets viktigaste upptäckt. I miljön finns naturligt bakterier som är resistenta mot antibiotika. Naturlig selektion gynnar bakterier som har förvärvat egenskapen att stå emot antibiotika och egenskapen sprids i bakteriepopulationer. Antibiotika resistens hos en bakterie kan förvärvas genom spontan mutation, genom överföring av genetiskt material från en annan bakterie, eller genom överföring via en vektor (en baketriofag). Ett av de stora problemen idag är den ökande resistensspridningen hos bakterier. Denna har ökat till följd av att mer antibiotika används och sprids i naturen.

Analys av medicinska registerdata, befolkningsdata och miljödata med hjälp av Geografiska InformationsSystem (GIS) kan användas för att kartlägga hälso- och ohälsotillstånd, och se hur sjukdomsmönster samvarierar med yttre förhållanden. I detta SRL-projekt vill vi stimulera till användning av sådana metoder i våra samarbetsländer – Nicaragua, Sri Lanka och delstater i östra Indien.BakgrundUnder de senaste decennierna har mycket hög förekomst av CKD rapporterats från Centralamerika, Sri Lanka och östra Indien. Rapporterna har mycket gemensamt – sjukdomen drabbar ofta fattiga jordbruksarbetare som bor och arbetar i varmt klimat – och hälsovårdsresurserna i dessa områden räcker inte till för diagnostik och behandling. Orsaken är fortfarande okänd, och sjukdomen har därför kommit att kallas Chronic Kidney Disease of Unknown origin (CKDu). I Centralamerika är den ledande hypotesen att hårt fysiskt arbete i hett klimat leder till upprepade vatten- och saltförluster vilket på sikt skadar njurarna. I Sri Lanka har man främst oroats av möjlig påverkan av tungmetaller och bekämpningsmedel som använts i jordbruket. I Indien har problemet uppmärksammats först under senare år och forskningen är ännu i sin linda.Det finns globalt sett endast begränsad kunskap om CKDu, och traditionella registerdata-sammanställningar från dödsorsaksstatistik och behandlingsstatistik (t ex dialysregister) har sällan eller aldrig redovisats på regional och lokal nivå med samtidigt beaktande av regionala skillnader i omgivningsmiljö och socioekonomiska förhållanden. Med GIS kan befintliga data utnyttjas på ett bättre sätt för att förstå sjukdomens förekomst och dess orsaker, och därmed också möjligheter till prevention och allokering av hälsovårdsinsatser. En viktig fråga är om det hade funnits möjlighet att tidigare än som nu har varit fallet med CKDu kunna upptäcka en ökad sjukdomsförekomst genom mer avancerad analys av befintliga hälsodata för att på så sätt kunna arbeta med förebyggande åtgärder. ProjektplanI våra fallstudier kombineras data om kronisk njursjukdom, t ex från dödsorsaksregister, med befolkningsdata, uppgifter om socioekonomiska förhållanden och data om miljöförhållanden. Sådana uppgifter hämtas från öppna databaser med uppgifter om temperatur och nederbörd, vegetation, bebyggelse, landarealers användning, höjdförhållanden och andra geografiska data. Med hjälp av Geografiska Informationssystem (GIS) sammanfogas dessa data med sjukdoms- och befolkningsdata. Samband mellan anhopning av sjukdom och miljöfaktorer analyseras, och jämföras mellan länderna.En viktig del i projektet är kunskapsspridning och nätverksbyggande både på det lokala planet - mellan GIS-experter och medicinsk-epidemiologiska forskare som tidigare inte har samarbetat – och mellan deltagande parter. Unga forskare eller mastersstuderande från de tre länderna, som deltar i projektet kommer också att mötas under en GIS-kurs, anordnad på GIS-centrum i Lund. Projektet är samordnat med andra pågående epidemiologiska och kliniska studier i de deltagande länderna.BetydelseFörekomsten av CKD av såväl kända som okända orsaker är underrapporterad i många låg- och låg-medelinkomstländer. En ökad kunskap om i vilka områden CKD är ett ökande problem, och hur utvecklingen ser ut över tid ger inte bara nödvändiga grunduppgifter för hälso- och sjukvårdssystemen, utan kan också bidra till ökad förståelse för sjukdomsdrivande mekanismer och därmed möjligheter till prevention.Kronisk njursvikt oavsett ursprung i en redan utsatt befolkning ger förödande konsekvenser för de sjuka individerna, vilket också undergräver den socioekonomiska situationen för familjen och lokalsamhället.

Orsaken är fortfarande okänd, och sjukdomen har därför kommit att kallas Chronic Kidney Disease of Unknown origin (CKDu).

The enzymes will be obtained from synthetic genes and produced in the laboratory for biochemical experiments with commonly used herbicides. We want to enhance the activity of the enzymes by engineered mutations such that their protective effect is augmented. By elucidating mutations necessary for generating more resistant varieties, rice can be modified via gene editing, which will follow the present project.The work will be done in close collaboration between groups in Stockholm and Cairo.

Förklaringen till detta låga utbyte, som är bottennoteringen för 25 år, ligger till stor del i höga temperaturer som i Nildeltat överskred normala nivåer från mitten av juli t.o.m. september.

Vattnet kommer till största delen från omgivande jordbruksområden och kan vara kontaminerat med pesticider och andra bekämpningsmedel. Ett annat hot är ogräs, som i risodlingar bekämpas med herbicider såsom butachlor.Glutationtransferaser (GST) är enzymer som är centrala i högre organismers avgiftning av skadliga ämnen. Modellförsök har visat att GST kan skydda växter mot ökad salthalt i odlingsmediet och mot olika former av kemisk stress inklusive herbicider. Ris är utrustat med minst 79 olika gener som kodar för GST-enzymer fördelade på olika men strukturellt besläktade klasser. Enzymerna har olika funktionella egenskaper och somliga bryter ned herbicider och skyddar därmed risplantor vid bekämpning av ogräs. Två av dessa enzymer i ris, GSTL2 och GSTU4, från olika klasser har visats skydda mot torka, salt, arsenik och vissa herbicider, och enzymernas koncentration i celler ökar då växten exponeras för vissaherbicider som chlorsulfuron och glyphosat.Det omedelbara målet för detta projekt är att karakterisera enzymerna GSTL2 och GSTU4 för att ge ledning för utvecklandet av risvarieteter med ökad tolerans mot toxiska ämnen och miljöpåverkan i form av torka, salt, och metaller. Valet av dessa GST grundas på tidigare rapporter där de i levande växter visats ge resistens av efterfrågat slag.

Genom att bygga på biokemisk karakterisering av GST-enzymer och deras mutanter kan mer effektiva enzymer framställas för att erhålla resistens i ris. De fördelaktiga mutationerna kan sedan införas i GST-genen i risceller med hjälp av genetiska verktyg, såsom gen-editering via CRISPR/Cas9 eller via transgenes med en viral vektor. I en senare fas, efter avslutandet av detta projekt, kan växtförädling påbörjas för att utveckla nya riskultivarer med förbättrad förmåga att möta de nya utmaningar som ändrat klimat och kemisk exponering, inklusive herbicider i risodlingen, som begränsar produktionen av ris i Egypten och i många andra länder.

The overall aim of this project is to understand etiology of NPC and to develop a useful screening tool for early detection of NPC in Sudan. Specifically we aim at: 1) to determine the genetic and environmental risk factors for NPC; 2) to develop a non-invasive and cost-effective method for early detection and diagnosis of NPC. To achieve aim 1, we will initiate a case-control study in 2 largest hospitals in the capital of Sudan, where NPC diagnosis and treatment is centralized. We aim to recruit 500 incident NPC cases and 1000 matched controls. Each study subject will be interviewed by questionnaire and blood samples collected. Conditional logistic regression model will be used to examine association between genetic and environmental risk factors with NPC risk. For aim 2, we will further use serum samples collected in the case-control study to build an optimal algorithm by testing various serology assays for EBV antibodies and EBV load. The developed screening tool will then be tested in high-risk groups, including relatives of NPC patients, and a high-incidence tribe. This unique collaborative project will hopefully broaden our understanding of etiological factors of NPC, and the results will eventually lead to the development of primary and secondary prevention strategies for NPC in Sudan. Trots att nasofarynxcancer (NPC, cancer i nässvalget) är en vanligt förekommande cancer i Sudan så vet man väldigt lite om orsakerna och det finns heller inget screening-program för att tidigt upptäcka cancern. Det övergripande syftet med följande projekt är för att förstå etiologin bakom NPC och för att utveckla ett användbart screening-verktyg för att detektera NPC i Sudan. Mer specifikt vill vi 1) fastställa vilka riskfaktorerna för NPC är med avseende på både genetik och livsstil; 2) utveckla en icke-invasiv och kostnadseffektiv metod för tidig upptäckt och diagnos av NPC. För att uppnå vårt första (1) mål kommer vi att starta en fall-kontrollstudie på två av Sudans huvudstads största sjukhus dit all diagnosticering och behandling av NPC är centraliserat. Vårt mål är att rekrytera 500 NPC-fall och 1000 matchade kontroller. Samtliga deltagare kommer att intervjuas enligt ett frågeformulär samt att få lämna blodprov. Samband mellan genetik- och livsstilsriskfaktorer och risken för NPC kommer att utvärderas med statistiska analyser. För vårt andra (2) mål kommer insamlat blodserum från fall-kontrollstudien att testas i olika serologiska metoder för detektion av EBV-antikroppar. Med hjälp av resultaten skapas sedan en optimal algoritm. Denna screening-modell kommer att testas på högriskgrupper, inklusive släktingar till NPC-patienter samt på en folkstam med hög NPC-förekomst. Detta unika samarbetsprojekt kommer förhoppningsvis att bredda kunskaperna kring etiologin för NPC och resultaten skulle kunna leda till utvecklingen av förebyggande strategier mot NPC i Sudan.

The analytical approaches used to deal with the processes of deforestation and agricultural changes, i.e. forest and agrarian transition models, are ill equipped to explain the complex interaction of forest conservation initiatives and local smallholding practices. There is a need to better understand the way new forms of land governance, such as REDD+, unfold locally and what effects they have on smallholders’ lifeworlds.

Tropiska skogar har lyfts fram på den internationella politiska arenan som viktiga kolsänkor för att hejda den globala uppvärmningen. Stora delar av de tropiska skogsområdena ligger i världens fattigaste länder, där de tillhandahåller mat och försörjning till många miljoner fattiga familjer. Skogspolitiken ägnar dock generellt föga uppmärksamhet åt dessa bönders markanvändningssystem. Detta trots att en del av dessa har en potential att kunna kombinera hållbar livsmedelsproduktion med skapandet av ekosystemtjänster, eftersom de kombinerar både jord- och skogsbruk i landskapet.Tidigare forskning som bedrivits av denna forskningsgrupp visar att småbrukare länkar ihop jordbruk och skogsskötsel, både på sin mark och i landskapet i stort. Vår forskning argumenterar därför för att odlingssystem som integrerar jord- och skogsbruk bidrar till ett bättre bevarande av skogar och ekosystemtjänster än vad dagens strikta byråkratiskas uppdelning mellan jordbruk och skog kan åstadkomma. Denna slutsats bygger på erfarenheter från två forskningsprojekt och samarbeten mellan forskare från Brasilien, Peru, Sverige, Tanzania och Nepal. Det första projektet utgjorde en jämförande studie av Brasilien, Peru, Tanzania och Nepal. Vi undersökte frågan om hur man kan stödja upprätthållandet och förstärkandet av ekosystemtjänster på ett sätt som integrerar den lokala kunskapen och kreativiteten hos brukarna. Den andra studien är ett pågående projekt som jämför den ömsesidiga påverkan mellan jord- och skogsbruk, vilken inverkan skogsbyråkrati har på småskaliga markanvändare och vad som motiverar dessa att samarbeta runt ekosystemtjänster i Nepal och Brasilien.De här två studierna tillsammans visar hur frågor om politisk styrning och tillgång till markresurser har blivit allt viktigare frågor i och med att nya former för politisk styrning av markanvändning växer fram på södra halvklotet. Sådan politisk styrning har konsekvenser för handlingsmöjligheterna för de allra fattigaste invånarna i tropiska skogsområden. Den globala skogspolitiken bygger till stor del på en teori som förklarar förändringar i skogslandskapet, den så kallade Forest Transition teorin (FT). Nuvarande FT-modeller är dock dåligt utrustade att förklara den komplexa växelverkan av skogsbevarande initiativ och lokala småbrukares praktiker. Det finns därför ett stort behov av att bättre förstå hur nya former av politisk styrning av markresurser, såsom REDD+ och andra skogsbevarande initiativ, utvecklas lokalt och vilka effekter de får för den lokala befolkningen.Vi är en tvärvetenskaplig grupp av forskare som arbetar med och som vill fortsätta att fördjupa oss i just dessa frågor. I det här samarbetsprojektet avser vi att stärka och vidga det pågående forskningssamarbetet mellan forskare i Brasilien, Nepal och Sverige, samt även dra in peruanska kollegor, för att fördjupa förståelsen av skogslandskap i förändring och hur skogsskyddande policies påverkar (stödjer så väl som hindrar) småbrukares försörjningsmöjligheter.  Det här projektet innebär att vi kan fördjupa förståelsen för de särskilda situationer och förutsättningar som gäller i våra skogsfallstudieområden (i Brasilien, Nepal och Peru). Detta kommer att ge oss möjlighet att förstärka både analysen av och teoretiseringen över dessa aspekter samt bidra till utbytandet av erfarenheter och insikter.

A transition from pastoralism to agro-pastoralism has been observed in semi-arid areas in response to these challenges. The hypothesis for this project is that the resilience of this transition rests on the capacity to provide secure but still flexible access to land, the so called paradox of pastoralist land tenure.The purpose of this project is to conduct a comparative study of land tenure and capacity for climate adaption in four semi-arid, pastoralist regions in Kenya. The aim is to provide new insights on how pastoralist land tenure can be designed to enable effective adaptation strategies. The four Kenyan case study counties are all dominated by semi-arid land.We identify and categorize land tenure systems and associated practices within these four areas, and map the way land tenure is practiced in these counties through samples of communities in each county. This will enable an evaluation of the marginal valuation of changes in attributes central to household welfare and collective action. The project will use a combination of ecological methods to measure rangeland productivity, combined with interview data on household livestock and milk production, animal breeds and health.We will then synthesize these results to identify pathways towards resilient pastoralist land tenure systems and propose alternative tenure designs. För närvarande är mer än 23 miljoner människor över hela Afrikas horn beroende nomadiserande boskapsskötsel, så kallad pastoralism, för sitt uppehälle. Detta levnadssätt utmanas allt mer av en kombination av förlust av mark till förmån för jordbruksexpansion, turism, infrastruktur och annan markexploatering, men även frekventa och bestående politiska konflikter och våld, befolkningsökning, accelererande ekonomisk ojämlikhet och klimatförändringar. För att hantera dessa utmaningar har en pågående övergång från pastoralism till så kallad agro-pastoralism observerats i flera halvtorra områden i Kenya. Agro-pastoralism kännetecknas av en mer bofast tillvaro, samt mer privatiserad och kommersialiserad användning av mark. Den underliggande hypotesen för det föreslagna forskningsprojektet är att den långsiktiga uthålligheten i denna övergång från traditionella nomadiserande försörjningsstrategier till en mer bofast och marknadsorienterad försörjning vilar på möjligheten att ha en tillgång till mark som är säker men samtidigt ändå flexibel, den så kallade pastoralistparadoxen. Syftet med det föreslagna projektet är därför att analysera denna övergång genom en jämförande studie av sambandet mellan markinnehav och kapaciteten för klimatanpassning i fyra halvtorra regioner i Kenya som domineras av pastoralism. Genom en tvärvetenskaplig och stegvis uppbyggd forskningsdesign, som vägleds av ett fokus på sambandet mellan klimatsårbarhet och dynamiken i markrättsliga frågor, är syftet med att bidra med nya insikter om hur besittningsrätten för pastoralister kan utformas för att möjliggöra effektiva klimatanpassningsstrategier. De fyra kenyanska distrikt (counties) som valts som fallstudieområden är West Pokot, Baringo, Laikipia och Isiolo. De är alla dominerade av semiarida marker där pastoralism är eller har varit den dominerande försörjningen. Tillsammans ger dessa områden mycket relevanta och lämpliga möjligheter att studera sambandet mellan pastoralism och sårbarheten för klimatförändringar. I projektet kommer vi att (1) identifiera och kategorisera olika markägoförhållandena och tillhörande markanvändning inom och mellan dessa fyra områden i Kenya. Baserat på detta kommer vi därefter att (2) analysera hur drivkrafter som skapas genom olika markägoförhållandena påverkar pastoralisters markanvändning, hushållning med mark och boskap, samt bredare försörjningsstrategier. En enkätundersökning som kommer att genomföras över alla fyra fallstudieområden. Den kommer att göra det möjligt att skatta det marginella värdet av faktorer som är centrala för hushållens välfärd och gemensamma beslut, såsom boskapens hälsotillstånd, klimatvariationer och säkerheten i möjligheterna att nyttja betesmark. Detta kombineras med ekologiska metoder som kommer att användas för att mäta betesmarkers produktivitet över säsonger. Här ingår en beskrivning och analys av befintliga produktionssystem genom kvantitativa helårsmätningar i områden med olika förvaltningsmetoder med fokus på foderproduktion, biologisk mångfald, vattentillgänglighet, samt kvalitativa analyser av foder. Vi kommer också att genomföra kvalitativa intervjuer om hushållens boskap och mjölkproduktion, djurraser och hälsa, med fokus på förändringar över tid. Slutligen kommer vi sammanföra dessa resultat för att identifiera vägar mot klimatuthålliga markägoförhållandena för pastoralister. Med tanke på den allmänna bristen på empiriska studier om sambandet mellan pastoralism och motståndskraft mot klimatförändringar, är den föreslagna tvärvetenskapliga och jämförande studien ett innovativt empiriskt och metodologiskt bidrag. Projektet har även en stark betoning på dialog och interaktion genom flera workshops med avnämare, samt inbegriper en avslutande policydesignanalys. Det ger projektet en möjlighet att engagera pastorala samhällen samt beslutsfattare på olika nivåer för att identifiera sätt att hantera pastoralistparadoxen.

A transition from pastoralism to agro-pastoralism has been observed in semi-arid areas in response to these challenges. The hypothesis for this project is that the resilience of this transition rests on the capacity to provide secure but still flexible access to land, the so called paradox of pastoralist land tenure.The purpose of this project is to conduct a comparative study of land tenure and capacity for climate adaption in four semi-arid, pastoralist regions in Kenya. The aim is to provide new insights on how pastoralist land tenure can be designed to enable effective adaptation strategies. The four Kenyan case study counties are all dominated by semi-arid land.We identify and categorize land tenure systems and associated practices within these four areas, and map the way land tenure is practiced in these counties through samples of communities in each county. This will enable an evaluation of the marginal valuation of changes in attributes central to household welfare and collective action. The project will use a combination of ecological methods to measure rangeland productivity, combined with interview data on household livestock and milk production, animal breeds and health.We will then synthesize these results to identify pathways towards resilient pastoralist land tenure systems and propose alternative tenure designs. För närvarande är mer än 23 miljoner människor över hela Afrikas horn beroende nomadiserande boskapsskötsel, så kallad pastoralism, för sitt uppehälle. Detta levnadssätt utmanas allt mer av en kombination av förlust av mark till förmån för jordbruksexpansion, turism, infrastruktur och annan markexploatering, men även frekventa och bestående politiska konflikter och våld, befolkningsökning, accelererande ekonomisk ojämlikhet och klimatförändringar. För att hantera dessa utmaningar har en pågående övergång från pastoralism till så kallad agro-pastoralism observerats i flera halvtorra områden i Kenya. Agro-pastoralism kännetecknas av en mer bofast tillvaro, samt mer privatiserad och kommersialiserad användning av mark. Den underliggande hypotesen för det föreslagna forskningsprojektet är att den långsiktiga uthålligheten i denna övergång från traditionella nomadiserande försörjningsstrategier till en mer bofast och marknadsorienterad försörjning vilar på möjligheten att ha en tillgång till mark som är säker men samtidigt ändå flexibel, den så kallade pastoralistparadoxen. Syftet med det föreslagna projektet är därför att analysera denna övergång genom en jämförande studie av sambandet mellan markinnehav och kapaciteten för klimatanpassning i fyra halvtorra regioner i Kenya som domineras av pastoralism. Genom en tvärvetenskaplig och stegvis uppbyggd forskningsdesign, som vägleds av ett fokus på sambandet mellan klimatsårbarhet och dynamiken i markrättsliga frågor, är syftet med att bidra med nya insikter om hur besittningsrätten för pastoralister kan utformas för att möjliggöra effektiva klimatanpassningsstrategier. De fyra kenyanska distrikt (counties) som valts som fallstudieområden är West Pokot, Baringo, Laikipia och Isiolo. De är alla dominerade av semiarida marker där pastoralism är eller har varit den dominerande försörjningen. Tillsammans ger dessa områden mycket relevanta och lämpliga möjligheter att studera sambandet mellan pastoralism och sårbarheten för klimatförändringar. I projektet kommer vi att (1) identifiera och kategorisera olika markägoförhållandena och tillhörande markanvändning inom och mellan dessa fyra områden i Kenya. Baserat på detta kommer vi därefter att (2) analysera hur drivkrafter som skapas genom olika markägoförhållandena påverkar pastoralisters markanvändning, hushållning med mark och boskap, samt bredare försörjningsstrategier. En enkätundersökning som kommer att genomföras över alla fyra fallstudieområden. Den kommer att göra det möjligt att skatta det marginella värdet av faktorer som är centrala för hushållens välfärd och gemensamma beslut, såsom boskapens hälsotillstånd, klimatvariationer och säkerheten i möjligheterna att nyttja betesmark. Detta kombineras med ekologiska metoder som kommer att användas för att mäta betesmarkers produktivitet över säsonger.

Our project goal is to enhance the capability for detection of zoonotic and emerging pathogens in Asian wildlife and people. Samples will be collected from wild animals and people working in the animal-human-ecosystem interface for analysis of selected viral and bacterial pathogens and antimicrobial resistance. The 4-year project will include surveillance and screening of elephants and wildlife workers for tuberculosis, along with sampling primates and rodents for other zoonotic pathogens. Safe and efficient immobilization techniques will be developed to enable optimal sample collection and to ensure human safety and animal welfare during handling of wildlife. Cutting edge technologies will be used for evaluation of physiological functions to prevent complications during immobilization, and for identification of novel pathogens. A strong emphasis will be put on strengthening individual and institutional capacities in conjunction with the research activities. With an emphasis on the One Health approach, contributing collaborators are from complementary fields of veterinary and human health, microbiology, metagenomics, bioinformatics, and wildlife conservation at scientific and governmental institutions. Our research on emerging pathogens and wildlife immobilization is of direct relevance for local livelihoods (health and poverty alleviation), wildlife resource management and biodiversity conservation. Sjukdomar som kan spridas mellan djur och människor (zoonoser) och antibiotikaresistens är stora problem som påverkar folk- och djurhälsa, livsmedelsförsörjning och ekonomisk tillväxt. Risken för spridning av zoonotiska smittämnen ökar med hög befolkningstäthet och nära kontakt mellan människor, boskap och vilda djur. Många zoonoser och nya smittämnen har sitt ursprung hos vilda djurpopulationer. Men det vilda djurlivet är också en viktig tillgång för lokalbefolkningen i många låginkomstländer där naturbaserad turism är en betydelsefull inkomstkälla som ökar starkt. Det behövs utökad forskning och kännedom om övervakning och diagnostik av smittämnen och antibiotikaresistens i vilda djurpopulationer och hos lokalbefolkning i nära kontakt med vilda djur. Kunskapen om förekomst av zoonoser hos vilda djur i Asien är otillräcklig. Vid sjukdomsövervakning av vilda djur krävs vanligen immobilisering (sövning; narkos) för att kunna samla in biologiska prover och garantera säker vilthantering för både djurens och människornas skull. Dock saknas effektiva och säkra immobiliseringsmetoder för många vilda djurarter.     Det övergripande målet med detta fyraåriga projekt är att förbättra övervakningen och stärka beredskapen mot zoonotiska infektionssjukdomar hos asiatiska elefanter, apor och människor. Provinsamling från vilda djur och människor som jobbar med vilt på Sri Lanka kommer ske för analys av specifika virus och bakterier, samt nya smittämnen. Fokus kommer att vara på sjukdomar som har stor betydelse för djur- och folkhälsan och med socioekonomisk påverkan. Den nya kunskapen som genereras genom forskningen kommer bidra till en hållbar fattigdomsbekämpning och stödja bevarandet av global biodiversitet.Forskning utförs inom fyra sammanlänkade projektdelar:1) Förekomst av tuberkulos hos asiatiska elefanter och människor. Prover samlas in från föräldralösa elefantungar på rehabiliteringscenter och i djurpark, från vilda elefanter i nationalparker och från personal som jobbar med vilda djur, såsom elefantskötare och viltveterinärer. Antibiotikaresistens kommer undersökas.2) Zoonoser hos apor. Provinsamling från makaker och langurer som befinner sig nära människors bostäder, i tempelområden och i nationalparker. Laboratorieanalys inkluderar förekomst av rota- och hantavirus, Salmonella, Campylobacter, Leptospira, samt antibiotikaresistens hos identifierade bakterier.3) Utveckling av säkra och effektiva immobiliseringsmetoder för asiatiska elefanter och apor. Vid provtagning som kräver immobilisering kommer nya sövningskombinationer utvecklas för säker hantering. Protokoll för behandling av komplikationer såsom syrebrist kommer etableras för att minska riskerna för de sövda djuren. Förbättrad hantering av vilda asiatiska djurarter bidrar till bevarandet av biologisk mångfald.4) Kartläggning av smittor hos vilda gnagare. Förekomst av hantavirus och Leptospira undersöks genom provtagning av vilda gnagare. Metagenomisk analys kommer utföras för att identifiera eventuella nya smittämnen.     Projektet utgår från en ’One-Health’-strategi både på lokal, regional och global nivå, med en tvärvetenskaplig grupp med experter inom veterinärmedicin, humanmedicin, mikrobiologi, bioinformatik och viltvård. Samarbetspartners inkluderar Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), Karolinska Institutet (KI), Totalförsvarets Forskningsinstitut (FOI) och Kolmårdens djurpark i Sverige. Medverkande på Sri Lanka är University of Kelaniya, University of Peradeniya och Department of Wildlife Conservation. Kompetensuppbyggnad avseende laboratoriemetodik och viltimmobilisering sker genom forskarutbyten för internationella samarbetspartners och SLU, KI och Kolmårdens djurpark i Sverige. Under projektets gång arrangeras workshops för kunskapsuppbyggnad och spridning av resultat, vilket också sker på internationella konferenser och genom vetenskapliga publikationer.

Det behövs utökad forskning och kännedom om övervakning och diagnostik av smittämnen och antibiotikaresistens i vilda djurpopulationer och hos lokalbefolkning i nära kontakt med vilda djur. Kunskapen om förekomst av zoonoser hos vilda djur i Asien är otillräcklig. Vid sjukdomsövervakning av vilda djur krävs vanligen immobilisering (sövning; narkos) för att kunna samla in biologiska prover och garantera säker vilthantering för både djurens och människornas skull. Dock saknas effektiva och säkra immobiliseringsmetoder för många vilda djurarter.     Det övergripande målet med detta fyraåriga projekt är att förbättra övervakningen och stärka beredskapen mot zoonotiska infektionssjukdomar hos asiatiska elefanter, apor och människor. Provinsamling från vilda djur och människor som jobbar med vilt på Sri Lanka kommer ske för analys av specifika virus och bakterier, samt nya smittämnen. Fokus kommer att vara på sjukdomar som har stor betydelse för djur- och folkhälsan och med socioekonomisk påverkan. Den nya kunskapen som genereras genom forskningen kommer bidra till en hållbar fattigdomsbekämpning och stödja bevarandet av global biodiversitet.Forskning utförs inom fyra sammanlänkade projektdelar:1) Förekomst av tuberkulos hos asiatiska elefanter och människor. Prover samlas in från föräldralösa elefantungar på rehabiliteringscenter och i djurpark, från vilda elefanter i nationalparker och från personal som jobbar med vilda djur, såsom elefantskötare och viltveterinärer. Antibiotikaresistens kommer undersökas.2) Zoonoser hos apor. Provinsamling från makaker och langurer som befinner sig nära människors bostäder, i tempelområden och i nationalparker. Laboratorieanalys inkluderar förekomst av rota- och hantavirus, Salmonella, Campylobacter, Leptospira, samt antibiotikaresistens hos identifierade bakterier.3) Utveckling av säkra och effektiva immobiliseringsmetoder för asiatiska elefanter och apor. Vid provtagning som kräver immobilisering kommer nya sövningskombinationer utvecklas för säker hantering. Protokoll för behandling av komplikationer såsom syrebrist kommer etableras för att minska riskerna för de sövda djuren. Förbättrad hantering av vilda asiatiska djurarter bidrar till bevarandet av biologisk mångfald.4) Kartläggning av smittor hos vilda gnagare. Förekomst av hantavirus och Leptospira undersöks genom provtagning av vilda gnagare. Metagenomisk analys kommer utföras för att identifiera eventuella nya smittämnen.     Projektet utgår från en ’One-Health’-strategi både på lokal, regional och global nivå, med en tvärvetenskaplig grupp med experter inom veterinärmedicin, humanmedicin, mikrobiologi, bioinformatik och viltvård. Samarbetspartners inkluderar Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), Karolinska Institutet (KI), Totalförsvarets Forskningsinstitut (FOI) och Kolmårdens djurpark i Sverige. Medverkande på Sri Lanka är University of Kelaniya, University of Peradeniya och Department of Wildlife Conservation. Kompetensuppbyggnad avseende laboratoriemetodik och viltimmobilisering sker genom forskarutbyten för internationella samarbetspartners och SLU, KI och Kolmårdens djurpark i Sverige. Under projektets gång arrangeras workshops för kunskapsuppbyggnad och spridning av resultat, vilket också sker på internationella konferenser och genom vetenskapliga publikationer.

If an efficient recycling technology could be developed, it could create an economic incentive to decrease pollution while stimulating independent economic growth. Poly(ethyleneterephthalate) (PET) is a major polymer type largely aimed at consumer applications like food containers and soft drink bottles. The low cost and high availability of PET from fossil feedstocks have made their products affordable even to the poorest people in the world. While these properties bring positive effects to impoverished regions, its global use also entails waste issues due to its non-biodegradable nature. For example, PET alone has been estimated to account for 8-12% of global solid waste. Most severely affected by waste pollution are the developing countries. Chemical recycling is largely considered the only sustainable final alternative, but current methods are expensive. Thus, new depolymerization technologies are needed that are more efficient. Catalysis as a method can be highly cost efficient, since it potentially only requires small amounts of added catalyst that can ultimately be reused. Owing to the extraordinary development of mild ester cleavage over the last decade, there should be potential for breakthrough in this challenging task. The project will be performed with a PhD student and in collaboration with polymer experts. I en tid då vi är medvetna om problemen med beroendet av fossila material, både som energi- och råvarukälla, måste vi söka långsiktiga och miljömässigt hållbara lösningar. Människan använder plaster eller polymerer i allt större utsträckning. Kombinationen av att de ofta är billiga att framställa och att de är lätta till vikten gör att plastprodukter har blivit tillgängliga även för de fattigaste samhällen på jorden. Till exempel är det möjligt att tack vare plasts egenskaper enkelt transportera färskvatten och mat till de mest avlägsna platser utan att innehållet förstörs av värme, ljus eller insekter. Dagligen omges vi i vår del av världen av datorer, smarta telefoner och andra produkter som innehåller polymerer av olika slag. Mänskligheten har i stor utsträckning blivit beroende av dessa material.Dessvärre har plasternas enorma framgångar också en baksida. De är väldigt svåra att återvinna på ett effektivt och långsiktigt hållbart sätt. Idag sker detta i industrialiserade länder i viss utsträckning genom metoder som varken är lönsamma eller effektiva och dessutom genererar nytt avfall som biprodukter. Trots stora ansträngningar hamnar plaster alltså ändå i miljön eller fylls på i stora högar på soptippar av den enkla anledningen att det är för dyrt, eller saknas ekonomiska drivmedel att återvinna materialen. Ett av de mest rikligt förekommande plastmaterialen kallas PET. Av PET tillverkas stora mängder förpackningar som sedan i viss utsträckning återvinns till bland annat klädesfibrer. I Europa återvinns ca 50 procent av all PET, i USA är samma siffra ca 30 procent och i övriga delar av världen är siffran betydligt lägre. Eftersom PET inte bryts ned i naturen, medför det ett stort framtida miljöhot då det i nuvarande takt inte heller återvinns i tillräckligt stor omfattning. Det är ett särskilt stort hot i utvecklingsländerna, då en i princip obefintlig återvinning och stor nedskräpning påverkar både miljön och befolkningens hälsa.Plaster består av små likadana beståndsdelar som kallas monomerer, som sammanfogas i tiotusental för att bilda det vi kallar polymerer. Om det fanns möjlighet att sönderdela polymeren PET till sina små beståndsdelar eller monomerer, kunde dessa renas och återanvändas antingen för att göra ny plast, eller till andra användningsområden. Denna process kallas kemisk återvinning och betraktas allmänt som den mest långsiktigt hållbara återvinningsmetoden. Dessvärre finns det betydande utmaningar för att lyckas med detta på ett tillräckligt bra sätt för att det ska vara ekonomiskt gångbart och vara mer lönsamt än att tillverka plasten direkt från fossila material istället.PET byggs upp av små molekyler som innehåller något som kallas estrar. Estrar förekommer på egen hand i många andra molekyler, särskilt smak- och luktämnen. Det föreslagna forskningsprojektet syftar till att med hjälp av vätgas och en katalysator klyva dessa estrar för att återbilda de små beståndsdelar eller monomerer som plasten består av. Grundforskning på universitet runtom i världen har de senaste åren med viss framgång lyckats klyva små estrar separat på detta vis. Om denna metod kunde utvecklas vidare, finns det gott hopp om att den även skulle kunna tillämpas på det viktiga problemet att selektivt sönderdela PET. Om det genom denna metod på ett effektivt sätt skulle gå att återvinna PET, skulle det gynna utvecklingsländer men även mänskligheten som helhet. Erfarenhet visar att när det finns ekonomiska drivkrafter bakom, anpassar sig världen snabbt. Detta är särkilt positivt när det kan gynna utvecklingsländer genom både förbättrad miljö och ekonomisk stimulans.I slutfasen av projektet kommer vi genom etablerade kontakter att undersöka vad det finns för möjligheter att implementera en sådan teknik i utvecklingsländer där behovet är som allra störst.

Tuberkulos (TBC) är den infektionssjukdom som orsakar flest dödsfall globalt. Sjukdomen kan botas med en kombinationsbehandling med flera antibiotika som behöver användas i minst 6 månader. TBC har ofta allvarliga ekonomiska konsekvenser för patienten på grund av direkta medicinska kostnader under diagnosfasen och den långa behandlingstiden. Dessutom drabbas patienten ofta av betydande inkomstbortfall på grund av nedsatt arbetsförmåga, diskriminering på arbetsmarknaden och täta sjukvårdskontakter. Även icke-medicinska kostnader som för transport och mat under vårdsökande och sjukhusvistelser bidrar.

The proposed research will implement an F3 recurrent genomic selection (GS) breeding scheme to deliver heat-tolerant, super-early, top industrial quality, and yield superior durum wheat varieties along the Senegal River Basin. It is hypothesized that GS shall provide higher genetic gain than a scheme based on marker-assisted or cross-breeding methods. This study will further show how to deliver improved durum wheat cultivars following three parallel breeding strategies with increased level of molecular predictions. Moreover, three of such methods will be tested to determine which one delivered the maximum genetic gains. In parallel, it shall sustain the grain yield testing of several elite lines along the River Senegal and their initial fast-track multiplication for delivering rapid impact. It is hypothesized that smallholder farmers shall benefit from this new technology by sowing seeds of improved varieties that ensure higher and more stable yields, while also obtaining higher market prices Senegalfloden ger vatten till bevattning åt mer än 200 000 hektar risodling längs dess flodområde (Guinea, Mali, Mauretanien och Senegal). Mauretanien och Senegal är fattiga, svårt svältdrabbade länder, de rankas på 55: e och 44: e plats i Global Hunger Index, med ett starkt beroende av jordbruk och boskap. Stora områden av de båda länderna består av öknar eller halvtorra områden, med otillräcklig nederbörd för att upprätthålla jordbruket. Den mest fertila regionen är längs Senegalfloden är vid gränsen mellan de två länderna. Byggandet av dammar vid Manantali och Diama upprättade ett effektivt system för bevattning av de omgivande landområdena. Den dominerande grödan är ris, som vanligtvis odlas under översilning två säsonger i rad. En torr, varm säsong mellan mars och juni, och en våt, varm säsong mellan juli och november. Under den kalla perioden, mitten av november till mitten av mars, lämnas fälten i träda. Området längs Senegalfloden erkänns som en viktig zon för social stabilitet och utrotningen av svält i Västafrika. Genom avel och agronomi, har vi visat att det pågående projektet (som slutar 2017), att durumvetessorter med tidig mognad och hög värmetolerans gav över tre ton ha-1 på bara 90 dagar på de platser längs Senegalfloden där den testades. Dessutom är de skördade durumvetekornen av högsta kvalitet och kan säljas på den internationella marknaden till ett pris av över 300 € t-1. När projektet väl har skalats upp, kommer det resultera i 500 000 ton ny mat eller 150 miljoner € extra i intäkter för småbrukare, utan att påverka den aktuella risproduktionen. Mauretanien och Senegal är båda konsumenter av couscous och andra grynprodukter, som importeras som industriprodukter för över 20 miljoner € årligen, därtill i form av 100 miljoner € av durum korn till de tre industripastafabriker som finns i Mauretanien och Senegal. Genom att tillgängliggöra högavkastande durumvetesorter anpassade till detta flodområde kommer mängden protein som kan assimileras i kosten öka, samt den totala mängden tillgängliga kalorier, och på ett praktiskt sätt bidra till att öka mängden mat som finns på bordet, och landsbygds inkomster.Syftet med detta projekt är att genom avancerad avel leverera supertidiga, högavkastande och värmetoleranta durumvetesorter som kan ersätta vinterträda säsongen längs Senegalfloden, och att produktion av nya livsmedel ej kommer påverka den befintliga risproduktionen, samt att generera en ny marknad som ger inkomster till småbrukare av denna växande gröda längs flodområdet och därmed minska fattigdomen på landsbygden genom att skapa nya jobb som upprätthåller pastaindustrin. Den föreslagna forskningen kommer att bestå av en F3 med återkommande genomisk selektion (GS) med förädlingsmålen att leverera värmetoleranta och supertidiga durumvetesorter med hög avkastning av god industriellkvalitet att odla längs Senegalfloden. Det antas att GS kommer at ge en högre genetisk förstärkning än ett system som endast bygger på markörassisterade- eller korsförädlingsmetoder. Denna studie kommer ytterligare att visa hur man kan leverera förbättrade durumvetesorter genom tre parallella avelsstrategier med ökad nivå av molekylära förutsägelser. Dessutom kommer tre av dessa metoder testas för att fastställa vilken modell som levererade de högsta genetiska vinster. Parallellt skall studien upprätthålla de pågående testerna av fröskörd från flera elitlinjer längs Senegalfloden samt deras accelererade multiplikationsmetod för att leverera snabbt genomslag. Det antas att småbrukare kommer kunna dra nytta av den nya tekniken genom att så frön av förbättrade sorter som säkerställer högre och mer stabil avkastning, samtidigt som högre marknadspriser kan uppnås.Den Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Institut National de Recherche Agronomique (INRA) i Marocko, Centre National de Recherche Agronomique et de Développement Agricole (CNRADA) i Mauretanien och Institut S Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Mauritania Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector SE-0-SE-29-2017-05522_2-1 Sweden This project aims to deliver by advanced breeding super-early high-yielding and heat tolerant durum wheat varieties to replace the winter fallow season along the Senegal River Basin (Mali-Mauritania-Senegal), with the scope of producing new food without affecting the existing rice production, and to generate new market that brings income to smallholders growing this crop within the Basin, thus reducing poverty in the rural areas, and generating new jobs via sustaining the pasta industry.

Byggandet av dammar vid Manantali och Diama upprättade ett effektivt system för bevattning av de omgivande landområdena. Den dominerande grödan är ris, som vanligtvis odlas under översilning två säsonger i rad. En torr, varm säsong mellan mars och juni, och en våt, varm säsong mellan juli och november. Under den kalla perioden, mitten av november till mitten av mars, lämnas fälten i träda.

Our preliminary results reveal five times greater survival and 78% higher biomass in inoculated plants under drought stress using the plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPR) from the harsh environments. The yield is further increased by 25% at the presence of sol-gel produced nanoparticles (NP). We hypothesize that the increased biomass results from significant re-programming of higher plant metabolism via the stimulation of mineral element uptake and utilization that lead to a boost in the metabolic activity. We assume that the process is controlled by surface characteristics of the NPs. To test the hypothesis mineral NP library will be developed, characterized and  used for PGPR formulation on sorghum and wheat isogenic lines. The inoculation effect on plants will be tested using advanced phenotyping technologies such as synchrotron X-ray fluorescence microscopy, inductively coupled plasma  mass spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The NP-PGPR complex studies will lead to biomarkers development and will ensure their reproducible application for SSA smallholder farmers, thus improving their livelihoods. Jordbruket utmanas av snabba befolkningsökningar och klimatförändringar. Förekomsten av extrema klimat förväntas öka inom den överskådliga framtiden. Ökad effektivitet i hållbar grödproduktion samt växtförädling med nyttiga bakterie- och jordtillskott, vilket mildrar klimatförändringarna, kommer att bli grundläggande för att möta dessa utmaningar. Sådana mikroorganismer kan underlätta växternas vatten- och näringsupptag, samt motverka flera olika typer av stress som kan drabba växter. De positiva effekterna som många av dessa mikroorganismer har på växter förmedlas av en rad mekanismer, däribland förbättrat upptag av mineralnäring och biofilmbildning på växternas rötter. Det är känt att dessa ´harsh environment´ bakterier i rotzonen, som vi föreslår i projektet, har utvecklats tillsammans med växtrötter under årtusenden. Flera system i växter och bakterier har utvecklat som utlöser tillgängliga resurser och initierar en metabolisk tillväxt vilket behövs i olika stressituationer i jordbruk under klimatförändringar. Kommersiellt bruk av de växtbefrämjande bakterier kräver dock att ett antal frågor hanteras. Specifika bakteriella samhällen måste noggrant matchas till olika växtarter. Genom utvecklandet av effektiva metoder för bakteriella ”formulation” och övervakning kan tekniken användas i stor skala i fält. Nanotekniska lösningar, såsom mediatorer av växtmikrobiella interaktioner har potential att öppna nya vägar till att förbättra hållbarheten i jordbruksmetoder. I detta projekt utvecklar vi den nanopartikelbaserade teknologin för användning på fälten och utvärderar dess effektivitet på näringsupptaget och ökad tolerans för torka hos sorghum och vete i på fälten i Etiopien, Kenya och Uganda via ’Farmers Field Schools’ (SSF). Projektets koncept är synnerligen innovativt i och med att extremt lite är känt om rollen för nanomaterial från naturliga mineraler i jord. De hypoteser som formulerats för projektet baseras på mycket uppmuntrande preliminära resultat och står på en solid grund av kemiska och biologiska principer. Sambandet mellan växter, mikrober och den omgivande miljön är högst komplex och kan utöva inflytande på varandra. Genom att endast studera dessa komplexa samband kommer vi att kunna bidra till att förmildra växtstressen till följd av extrema klimat i SSA-odlingar. Vi kommer att i detta sammanhang tillämpa avelsprogram med hänsyn till växtartens mikrobiom. Vi kommer att använda avancerade synkotronbaserad tekniker för pålitlig multimodal ’phenotyping’ och kombinera teknikerna med genetiskt definierade växtbestånd. På detta sätt kommer växtmikrobiomers fenotyper att interagera med den underliggande genetiska grunden.  Forskningsresultaten kommer att i grunden förbättra förståelsen av fundamentala processer i jorden. Nya synkotronbaserade tillvägagångssätt kommer att bidra med nya verktyg för studiet av jordprocesser på nanonivå. Intresset för frågan om nanopartikelinteraktioner och metaboliska effekter i växters mikrobiom ökar i rask takt och kommer sannolikt att få starkt internationellt stöd inom kort. Arbetet kommer att utföras i samarbete med världsledande experter på området.  Särskild fokus ligger på förbättrad kommunikation av metodutvecklingen mellan forskare i Sverige, SSA och på potentiella användare av metoden i SSA.  Detta kommer att ske i samarbete med ASARECA och lokala myndigheter. Vi kommer att skapa lokala initiativgrupper för informationsspridning och produktutveckling i SSA som diskuterar tekniken med berörda parter inom ramen för konferenser och workshops som planeras inom projektet. Inom detta projekt föreligger en kombination av avancerade forskningsmetoder som kopplas till praktisk fältforskning.

We will use a comparative social-ecological study of small-scale fisheries across the western Indo-Pacific Ocean to investigate human use and dependence on seagrass ecosystems; the highly productive but largely neglected ‘ugly duckling of marine conservation’. We hypothesize that seagrasses are ‘the ecosystems of last resort’ providing food and income to vulnerable people who lack alternatives, and that seagrass fisheries provide a ‘backup’ livelihood when other ecosystems (e.g. coral reefs) are inaccessible. To achieve the aims of the project we will, together with long-time collaborators and early career scientists from low- and middle-income countries, form a large Indo-Pacific Seagrass Network (IPSN). We will perform coupled social-ecological surveys in 15 regions across environmental and socio-economic gradients, to address 3 core questions: 1) does seagrass biodiversity support the production of fish and invertebrate resources, and how is this link affected by human action, natural drivers and management, 2) how do seagrass fisheries support livelihoods, and how is this influenced by characteristics of people and environmental conditions, 3) what are the main obstacles and opportunities for sustainable use of seagrass meadows, given local scenarios of socio-economic development and climate change? Fattiga människor är ofta beroende av naturens ekosystemtjänster för mat och inkomst. Samtidigt vet vi att förlust av biologisk mångfald missgynnar ekosystem. Däremot är det fortfarande oklart huruvida förvaltning för hög biologisk mångfald faktiskt gynnar ekosystemtjänster och kan minska fattigdom, vilket försvårar både fattigdomsbekämpning och miljöförvaltning. För att klargöra dessa samband behöver vi mer och djupare kunskap, dels om 1) huruvida biologisk mångfald faktiskt gynnar livsnödvändiga ekosystemtjänster, och hur miljö- och klimatvariation påverkar dessa samband, samt 2) hur olika individers kunskap, egenskaper och förutsättningar påverkar deras preferenser och möjligheter att nyttja olika ekosystemtjänster, och därigenom minska fattigdom. Mot denna bakgrund kommer vi – en tvärvetenskaplig grupp forskare från Sverige, Tanzania och Storbritannien – bilda ett större forskningsnätverk och tillsammans undersöka hur biologisk mångfald och människors förutsättningar bidrar till fattigdomsbekämpning i Indiska Oceanens och västra Stilla havets tropiska kustområden.Orden "biologisk mångfald" och ”tropiska kustområden” får nog många att tänka på färgsprakande korallrev. Den här studien fokuserar istället på mångfald i ett mindre känt och mindre färgglatt, men minst lika viktigt ekosystem; sjögräsängar. Sjögräs är blomväxter som bildar täta och böljande undervattens-ängar i grunda havsområden. I Indiska Oceanen och Stilla havet har sjögräsen en hög mångfald och tillväxt, och utgör viktiga ’barnkammare’ för t.ex. fiskyngel och kräftdjur, som antingen förblir i sjögräsängarna under hela livet eller flyttar till andra ekosystem (t.ex. korallrev) när de växt sig större. Den höga produktionen av fisk gör också att sjögräsängar ofta fiskas för att generera mat och inkomst. Eftersom sjögräsen ofta växer grunt och nära land, så kan även de män och kvinnor som saknar tillgångar (t.ex. båtar och dyra redskap) fiska där. Vi ser också indikationer på att rikare fiskare, som vanligtvis fiskar längre ut och i djupare vatten, också nyttjar sjögräsängar när väder och vind förhindrar deras vanliga fiske. Vi ser också tecken på att i områden där t.ex. korallrev påverkats starkt av miljö- och klimatförändringar, så sker ett allt intensivare fiske i sjögräsängar. Dessa indicier pekar åt ett och samma håll: diversa och friska sjögräsängar utgör en ’försäkring’ för de fattigaste människorna i kustområdena, men även för andra fiskare när andra ekosystem inte klarar trycket från klimat- och miljöförändringar. Men eftersom sjögräsängarna (och fisket som sker där) är mycket dåligt studerade och kartlagda, så är sjögräsängarna och deras fiske sällan förvaltade. Detta gör att hela sjögräsekosystemet – som den marin förvaltningens bortglömda ’fula ankunge’ – utsätts för ett allt högre tryck, vilket riskerar att utarma mångfalden, minska produktionen av livsviktiga resurser och förvärra fattigdom.För att ta fram ett gediget kunskapsunderlag om betydelsen av kopplingarna mellan sjögräsängar och människan för fattigdomsbekämpning kommer vi bilda ett regionalt samarbetsnätverk (kallat ISPN) tillsammans med en stor grupp andra forskare från områdena kring Indiska Oceanen och västra Stilla havet. Först kommer vi genomföra en komparativ ekologisk studie av sjögräsekosystem i 15 regioner (från de fattigaste till de rikare), och statistiskt analysera den relativa betydelsen av sjögräsängar och deras mångfald för de lokala fiskbestånden. Sedan kommer vi i flera regioner - bl.a. Tanzania, Kenya, Moçambique och Indonesien - studera sjögräsfisket. Vi kommer kartlägga hur, var, varför och när på året sjögräsängar fiskas, vilka arter som fiskas, samt hur relativt viktiga fångster i sjögräsängar är för kustfisket. Sedan kommer vi på samma platser intervjua både fattiga och rikare fiskare för att kartlägga om, för vem och på vilka sätt sjögräsängar bidrar till mat, inkomst och arbete, samt hur beroende de är av sjögräsängarna om t.ex. miljön, klimatet eller förvaltningen Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Kenya Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2017-05535_1-1 Sweden This project will assess the joint influences of marine biodiversity and characteristics of coastal people on the role of seagrass systems in supporting poverty alleviation.

The once prominent human preferring and indoor biting species, Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto, is being superseded as the main vector of malaria in many regions by Anopheles arabiensis, a species in which various populations demonstrate surprisingly plastic biting and host preferences. Populations of An. arabiensis also differ in their degree of human preference, from highly anthropophilic to highly zoophilic. Therefore, our human host- and indoor biting-centered vector control measures are not nearly as effective against this rising threat. The development of a screening tool to quickly and accurately assess the host preference of An. arabiensis populations is required to enable the rational targeting of vector control resources to communities known to be at risk for significant malaria transmission. The purpose of the proposed research is to identify genetic markers of host preference in the malaria vector mosquito An. arabiensis, to be integrated into current monitoring protocols to assess the current, and predict future, human biting risk of An. arabiensis populations associated with human habitation. The aim of the project is to increase the portfolio of existing vector control tools that can be integrated for the sustainable control of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. Varje 80:e sekund dör en person i Afrika söder om Sahara av smitta efter ett bett från en infekterad malariamygga. Malaria drabbar framförallt barn under 5 år och gravida kvinnor, vilka sammanlagt representerar 70% av dödsfallen. Under senare år har antalet insjuknade och döda minskat kraftigt genom en systematisk ökning och användning av insekticidbehandlade myggnät och sprayning med insekticider inomhus. Detta har lett till en minskad risk för malariaspridning med 21%, från 2010 till 2015, genom att dessa metoder effektivt reducerat antal myggbett från arter som har en förkärlek för människor, och som föredrar att söka efter blod inomhus på natten. Metoderna har varit så effektiva att Anopheles gambiae, den art som anses vara den främsta spridaren av malaria, i stort försvunnet från många regioner i Afrika söder om Sahara.Tyvärr har de metoder som inriktar sig mot myggor som letar efter blod inomhus, lett till en ökning av arter som Anopheles arabiensis, som är kvällsaktiva och vilka suger blod från både människor och djur, det vill säga är opportunistiska i sitt val av blodvärd. Flertalet av dessa arter anses nu vara allvarliga spridare av malaria. Preferensen för människor och djur hos dessa myggor varierar, inte bara hos individuella myggor, men också mellan populationer, som kan variera mellan en hög preferens för människor och en hög preferens för boskap. Graden av preferens har en direkt påverkan på den risk människor har att få malaria. Det är därför av stor vikt att vi kan kvantifiera preferensen hos olika myggpopulationer på rätt sätt.De metoder som idag används för att bestämma myggors preferens för människor har stora nackdelar. ’Human landing catches’, där frivilliga utsetts för myggbett, är både arbetskrävande och är idag etiskt ifrågasatt. Fällor associerade med bostäder, och andra metoder som inriktar sig mot myggor som suger blod inomhus, är partiska och ger inte en rättvis bild av den nuvarande artsammansättningen. Metoder som utvecklats för att fånga myggor utomhus har inte påvisats vara tillförlitliga för att exakt kvantifiera myggors preferens.Det vi behöver är en övervakningsmetod för att bestämma myggors preferens för människor som är noggrann, förknippad med låg risk, och som inte är beroende av en specifik fångstmetod. Detta kan göras genom att identifiera och associera specifika DNA mönster hos myggor, så kallade genetiska markörer, med deras preferens för människor eller boskap. Genom att identifiera myggpopulationer med en stark preferens för människor kan vi rikta kontrollmetoderna till utsatta regioner, och på så sätt reducera arbetsinsats och kostnader.Varför tror vi att myggans preferens återspeglas i dess DNA?För det första kan myggors preferens överföras från en generation till nästa. För det andra, finns det två bra exempel på hur skillnader i DNA uppsättningen speglar skillnader i preferens för människa och boskap. Hos dem opportunistiska malariamyggan, A. arabiensis, har en invertering av en del av en kromosom kopplats till en förändring i preferensen för boskap, och hos gulafebern myggan, har en liten förändring i en doftreceptorgen påvisats påverka preferensen för människa och andra djur.Hur planerar vi att identifiera de genetiska markörerna?I Kilombero-dalen i Tanzania finns det populationer av A. arabiensis som varierar mellan att ha en stark preferens för människor till att ha en stark preferens för boskap. Vi kommer att samla in myggor från en av dessa populationer, identifiera om de sugit blod från människor eller boskap, och därefter sekvensera hela deras genom. Härefter kommer vi att identifiera variationer i deras DNA, det vill säga genetiska markörer, som associerar med myggornas preferens. Härnäst kommer vi att verifiera att dessa markörer på ett rätt sätt kan förutse preferensen hos myggor i en annan population. Vi kommer även att etablera en laboratoriekoloni av myggor med preferens för människa, och sen selektera för myggor som suger blod från kor.

The once prominent human preferring and indoor biting species, Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto, is being superseded as the main vector of malaria in many regions by Anopheles arabiensis, a species in which various populations demonstrate surprisingly plastic biting and host preferences. Populations of An. arabiensis also differ in their degree of human preference, from highly anthropophilic to highly zoophilic. Therefore, our human host- and indoor biting-centered vector control measures are not nearly as effective against this rising threat. The development of a screening tool to quickly and accurately assess the host preference of An. arabiensis populations is required to enable the rational targeting of vector control resources to communities known to be at risk for significant malaria transmission. The purpose of the proposed research is to identify genetic markers of host preference in the malaria vector mosquito An. arabiensis, to be integrated into current monitoring protocols to assess the current, and predict future, human biting risk of An. arabiensis populations associated with human habitation. The aim of the project is to increase the portfolio of existing vector control tools that can be integrated for the sustainable control of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. Varje 80:e sekund dör en person i Afrika söder om Sahara av smitta efter ett bett från en infekterad malariamygga. Malaria drabbar framförallt barn under 5 år och gravida kvinnor, vilka sammanlagt representerar 70% av dödsfallen. Under senare år har antalet insjuknade och döda minskat kraftigt genom en systematisk ökning och användning av insekticidbehandlade myggnät och sprayning med insekticider inomhus. Detta har lett till en minskad risk för malariaspridning med 21%, från 2010 till 2015, genom att dessa metoder effektivt reducerat antal myggbett från arter som har en förkärlek för människor, och som föredrar att söka efter blod inomhus på natten. Metoderna har varit så effektiva att Anopheles gambiae, den art som anses vara den främsta spridaren av malaria, i stort försvunnet från många regioner i Afrika söder om Sahara.Tyvärr har de metoder som inriktar sig mot myggor som letar efter blod inomhus, lett till en ökning av arter som Anopheles arabiensis, som är kvällsaktiva och vilka suger blod från både människor och djur, det vill säga är opportunistiska i sitt val av blodvärd. Flertalet av dessa arter anses nu vara allvarliga spridare av malaria. Preferensen för människor och djur hos dessa myggor varierar, inte bara hos individuella myggor, men också mellan populationer, som kan variera mellan en hög preferens för människor och en hög preferens för boskap. Graden av preferens har en direkt påverkan på den risk människor har att få malaria. Det är därför av stor vikt att vi kan kvantifiera preferensen hos olika myggpopulationer på rätt sätt.De metoder som idag används för att bestämma myggors preferens för människor har stora nackdelar. ’Human landing catches’, där frivilliga utsetts för myggbett, är både arbetskrävande och är idag etiskt ifrågasatt. Fällor associerade med bostäder, och andra metoder som inriktar sig mot myggor som suger blod inomhus, är partiska och ger inte en rättvis bild av den nuvarande artsammansättningen. Metoder som utvecklats för att fånga myggor utomhus har inte påvisats vara tillförlitliga för att exakt kvantifiera myggors preferens.Det vi behöver är en övervakningsmetod för att bestämma myggors preferens för människor som är noggrann, förknippad med låg risk, och som inte är beroende av en specifik fångstmetod. Detta kan göras genom att identifiera och associera specifika DNA mönster hos myggor, så kallade genetiska markörer, med deras preferens för människor eller boskap. Genom att identifiera myggpopulationer med en stark preferens för människor kan vi rikta kontrollmetoderna till utsatta regioner, och på så sätt reducera arbetsinsats och kostnader.Varför tror vi att myggans preferens återspeglas i dess DNA?För det första kan myggors preferens överföras från en generation till nästa. För det andra, finns det två bra exempel på hur skillnader i DNA uppsättningen speglar skillnader i preferens för människa och boskap. Hos dem opportunistiska malariamyggan, A. arabiensis, har en invertering av en del av en kromosom kopplats till en förändring i preferensen för boskap, och hos gulafebern myggan, har en liten förändring i en doftreceptorgen påvisats påverka preferensen för människa och andra djur.Hur planerar vi att identifiera de genetiska markörerna?I Kilombero-dalen i Tanzania finns det populationer av A. arabiensis som varierar mellan att ha en stark preferens för människor till att ha en stark preferens för boskap. Vi kommer att samla in myggor från en av dessa populationer, identifiera om de sugit blod från människor eller boskap, och därefter sekvensera hela deras genom. Härefter kommer vi att identifiera variationer i deras DNA, det vill säga genetiska markörer, som associerar med myggornas preferens. Härnäst kommer vi att verifiera att dessa markörer på ett rätt sätt kan förutse preferensen hos myggor i en annan population. Vi kommer även att etablera en laboratoriekoloni av myggor med preferens för människa, och sen selektera för myggor som suger blod från kor.

Another aim is to investigate why malaria mosquitoes are attracted to gametocyte carrying patients, by analysing volatiles, exhaled and emitted, by patients in malaria endemic areas.

Har afrikanska stater kapacitet för ’utveckling’? I dagens litteratur beskrivs afrikanska stater antingen som oförmögna eller ointresserad av utveckling, men dessa utsagor har inte fullt ut getts historiskt kontext. Samtidigt är det allmänt erkänt i utvecklingslitteratur ägnad åt historia, ekonomi och politik att det är historien och institutionerna som betyder mest för utveckling. Min föreslagna forskning kommer att undersöka när, var och under vilka förhållanden stater i Afrika söder om Sahara hade förmåga att skapa utveckling och när, var och under vilka förhållanden de inte hade det. För närvarande saknar vi tydliga empiriska mått för att mäta om afrikanska stater har ökat sin kapacitet, och om de blivit starkare och mer legitima idag än de var 20, 50 eller 100 år sedan.Det finns flera testbara hypoteser i den teoretiska och begreppsmässiga litteraturen, till exempel hur effektivt stater kunde beskatta sina medborgare, om och hur dessa intäkter spenderades och investerades. Att testa dessa hypoteser är av stor betydelse. Om slutsatsen är att de afrikanska staterna är oförmögna eller ointresserade av att iscensätta utveckling betyder det att internationellt sponsrade utvecklingspolitiska insatser bör omvärderas.

Many also lack ready access to fuel wood and other tree derived benefits. However, the current scientific paradigm says that we must choose which problem to solve as increasing tree cover always reduces water availability. Consider the costs if this thinking is wrong. In Africa, 175 M ha of degraded lands are judged suitable for tree planting which could significantly enhance people’s livelihoods. Our previous research in the seasonally dry tropics indicates that an intermediate tree cover can often improve groundwater recharge. This need testing on a larger scale, but if confirmed will upend the prevailing view in hydrology and have profound implications for policies affecting millions of livelihoods and the environment.  Thus, the aim of this project is to provide evidence for better policies and management that will benefit poor people in drylands by evaluating the novel “optimum tree cover theory” for groundwater recharge across African drylands. The project involves four leading institutions; SLU, ICRAF, WU and NMBU. We will use the Land Degradation Surveillance Framework; a unique dataset that is available across Africa. It consists of multiple variables, including tree cover and key soil variables. We will do complementary strategic measurements of soil water flow and tree water use to model groundwater recharge as a function of tree cover under common conditions of the seasonally dry tropics. Lagom antal träd är bäst - ny förståelse av träd kan ge mer vatten i AfrikaUppskattningsvis 80% av världens befolkning saknar säkra vattenresurser. Många av dessa människor saknar också god tillgång till brännved och andra fördelar som träd kan ge såsom foder till djur, frukter och markskydd. Det nuvarande vetenskapliga paradigmet säger att vi måste välja vilket problem vi vill lösa eftersom ett öka antalet träd alltid antas minska tillgången på vatten. Därför varnar nuvarande rekommendationer allmänheten att träd i torra områden kan äventyra redan knappa vattenresurser. Men betänk kostnaderna om detta tänkande är fel och trädplantering faktiskt kan minska vattenbrist. Mycket står på spel. Enbart i Afrika är 175 miljoner hektar förstörd mark som bedöms lämplig för trädplantering - något som väsentligt kan förbättra människors levnadsvillkor. Vår forskning från Burkina Faso i semi-arida Västafrika har visat att jämfört med trädlösa miljöer så kan träd förbättra grundvattenbildningen. Dessa resultat behöver testas i större skala, men om de bekräftas så måste den rådande uppfattningen inom hydrologin ändras och det får djupgående konsekvenser för en politik som påverkar miljontals människors försörjning och miljö.Våra mål i projektet är:• Att ge bättre underlag för rekommendationer som gynnar fattiga människor i torra områden genom att utvärdera teorin att ”lagom antal träd är bäst” för grundvattenbildning över tropiska torrområden• Identifiera skötselåtgärder som kan öka grundvattenresurserna.                                                                                         Projektet omfattar fyra ledande institutioner; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), World Agroforestry Center (ICRAF), Wageningen University (WU); och the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU). Forskningsgruppen täcker ett brett spektrum av discipliner, bland annat geostatistik, markvetenskap, ekologi, agroforestry, skogsbruk och hydrologi. Vi kommer att använda en unik världsomfattande insamling av data där vi väljer ut provytor som redan finns i semi-arida Afrika. Databasen består av flera biofysiska variabler, inklusive utbredning av träd, buskar och gräs och viktiga markvariabler som påverkar grundvattenbildningen. Vi kommer att göra ytterligare mätningar av vattenflöden i marken och trädens vattenanvändning. Vi kommer att kombinera detta med information från databasen för att sedan göra modeller som kan förutsäga hur grundvattenbildningen påverkas av träd på vanliga marker i semi-arida tropikerna.

The existence of latent and persistent P. vivax hypnozoites in the liver makes this species less amenable to elimination efforts than P. falciparum. Vanuatu is an archipelago of 68 inhabited islands in the southwest Pacific. Our overall purpose is to achieve sustainable malaria elimination in the entire archipelago, based on the achievement on Aneityum Island over the last 25 years. Furthermore innovative strategies for P. vivax elimination are desired. With the establishment of the Center for Malaria Elimination in Port Vila, we specifically aim to 1) establish a robust malaria surveillance system to detect asymptomatic and sub-microscopic infections by PCR and identify remaining hotspots, 2) examine the containment strategy of short-term mass drug administration in concert with long-term vector control to eliminate infections in detected hotspots, 3) support the wider use of primaquine against P. vivax hypnozoites by investigating human CYP2D6 polymorphisms and G6PD deficiency related to primaquine metabolism and safety, respectively, 4) create a local economic mechanism such as malaria free award to encourage changes in human behaviors towards self-protection against malaria infections, and 5) characterize the changes in genetic diversity of the last parasites and human anti-parasite immunity after malaria elimination.

Trots olika koloniseringar har malaria troligen funnits sedan den första mänskliga bosättningen för 4000 år sedan [Kaneko et al. 1998].Aneityum-projektetAneityum, den sydligaste ön i Vanuatu är den belägen på gränsen av malariaöverföring i Stilla havet. För att lyckas behövde vi skräddarsy ett kontrollprogram för malariafrihet efter de lokala epidemiologiska förhållandena. Massutdelning av läkemedel (MDA) veckovis med chloroquine Fansidar och primaquine genomfördes för hela populationen på 718 invånare på Aneityum under nio veckor 1991. Samtidigt distribuerades insektsimpregnerade myggnät till hela befolkningen. Larvivorous-fisk inplanterades i ett stort antal spridningskällor på Anopheles farauti med stort samhällsengagemang. Periodisk malariaövervakning visade att P. falciparum efter MDA helt försvunnit och likaså P Vivax efter 1996.[Kaneko et al. 2000]. Frihet från malaria har sedan upprätthållits med undantag av ett P. vivax-utbrott 2002 [Kaneko et al. 2014]. En risk för utbrott  på malariafria öar förelåg på de södra delarna av Vanuatu efter den tropiska cyklonen Pam 2015. Emellertid visade undersökningar att inget fall tre månader efter cyklonen i motsats till den stora ökningen efter cyklonen Uma 1987 [Chan et al. 2017]. Aneityum-projektet demonstrerar långsiktigt hållbarhet av malariaelimineringen och visar för omvärlden att konceptet håller. Med resultatet från Aneityum som grund är vårt mål att utrota malarian på alla bebodda öar i Vanuatu under nästa decennium. Därför behöver vi ytterligare utveckla strategin för P Vivax-eliminering något som många malariadrabbade länder i Asien och i Stilla Havet söker efter.Vi vill att (1) etablera en robust övervakning av asymtomatiska och sub-mikroskopiska infektioner genom att introducera PCR för att upptäcka återstående ”hot spots”,(2) undersöka vad en strategi för MDA ska innehålla på kort sikt tillsammans med långsiktig vektorstyrning för att eliminera malariainfektioner i upptäckta ”hot spots”,(3 ) stödja en bredare användning av Primakin för radikal behandling mot Plasmodium vivax hypnozoiter genom att undersöka mänskliga polymorfismer relaterade till Primakin metabolism och säkerhet,(4) undersöka mänskligt beteende, samhällsengagemang och nyttan med att skapa utvecklingsmekanismer såsom belöningar för malariafrihet för att driva beteendeförändringar mot egenkontroll av malaria infektioner och(5) beskriva förändringar i mångfalden hos de sista parasiterna och människans immunitet efter malaria-elimineringen.

The MamaCard is an individual mother held booklet developed based on standard antenatal and delivery cards which includes detachable vouchers to document each visit and the content of care received. It is linked to an individual identifier. The information on the vouchers are scanned and electronically processed. This method has been developed by a Swedish group (Shifo) and is applied to support the recording of vaccination data in four districts in Uganda.We will adapt present technologies to capture data along the continuum of antenatal, intrapartum and postpartum care. We will assess health workers perception and attitude towards present and this new data capturing system. We will also assess the costs involved. We will compare and triangulate selected indicator estimates with those from other sources. We will apply obtained mortality and quality of care indicators to evaluate an ongoing funded quality improvement initiative called QUADS which is implemented in Southern Tanzania.Our hypothesis is that the new MamaCard system can potentially revolutionise the present health management information systems in low and middle income countries where data on quality of care received by mothers and babies as well as mortality is not available at local level and in timely intervals. Dödligheten bland mammor och nyfödda är fortsatt hög i Afrika söder om Sahara. För att öka överlevnaden behöver vårdens kvalitet förbättras för att tillgodose tillgången till livräddande läkemedel och insatser. En av de största utmaningarna är bristande information om den vård som mammor och nyfödda får tillgång till. Journaler och register på vårdcentraler och sjukhus är oftast bristfälligt ifylld och svår att använda för analyser som möjliggör kvalitetsförbättring. I detta projekt kommer ett nytt innovativt system som utvecklats av svenska SHIFO att introduceras för att genera bättre information om den vård som mammor och nyfödda får tillgång till. Samma system kommer också att användas för att på ett tillförlitligt sätt utvärdera resultaten av ett kvalitetsförbättringsprojekt på landsbygden i södra Tanzania. Ett liknande system har tidigare utvecklats av SHIFO och med framgång implementerats för att dokumentera vaccination av barn i Uganda. Systemet består i ett litet häfte i fick-format som kallas för MamaCard. Detta häfte kommer att delas ut till varje gravid kvinna att bära med sig vid kontakt med sjukvården. Häftet kommer att användas av vårdpersonalen för att dokumentera den vård som ges under graviditet och förlossning. För varje vårdkontakt finns en löstagbar sida från vilken information från vårdkontakten kan scannas in. På detta sätt kan uppgifter om vårdkvalitén snabbt sammanställas och användas för förbättringsarbete och utvärdering. Projektet kommer att utveckla och implementera MamaCard i södra Tanzania. Dess relevans och kvalitet kommer att undersökas ur flera perspektiv:Hur uppfattar vårdpersonalen MamaCard i relation till de system som används i dagsläget?Hur ser den information som MamaCard generar ut jämfört med de mätsystem som används i dagsläget?Hur mycket kostar det att introducera och använda MamaCard? I det sista steget kommer användningen av MamaCard i södra Tanzania att möjliggöra en utvärdering av ett pågående kvalitetsförbättringsprojekt. Det övergripande målet med projektet är att utveckla och testa ett användarvänligt och tillförlitligt system som potentiellt kan revolutionera mätning av vårdkvalitet, och som kan introduceras i stor skala, för att öka överlevnaden bland mammor och nyfödda i Tanzania.

Dess relevans och kvalitet kommer att undersökas ur flera perspektiv:Hur uppfattar vårdpersonalen MamaCard i relation till de system som används i dagsläget?Hur ser den information som MamaCard generar ut jämfört med de mätsystem som används i dagsläget?Hur mycket kostar det att introducera och använda MamaCard? I det sista steget kommer användningen av MamaCard i södra Tanzania att möjliggöra en utvärdering av ett pågående kvalitetsförbättringsprojekt. Det övergripande målet med projektet är att utveckla och testa ett användarvänligt och tillförlitligt system som potentiellt kan revolutionera mätning av vårdkvalitet, och som kan introduceras i stor skala, för att öka överlevnaden bland mammor och nyfödda i Tanzania.

Yet, their crucial contribution and situation tend to be shrouded in silence. This research will provide novel insights into the dynamics that shape the triangular relationships between researchers, research brokers and research data in insecure zones. Knowledge about such dynamics appears particularly urgent at this point of time as many research institutions are increasingly regulating and restricting fieldwork access of their staff, leading to more outsourcing to local research assistants. The project is particularly unique since research brokers will form part of the research team and since one of the outputs is a book in which research brokers share their experiences. Empirically, the project focuses on the DR Congo, Sierra Leone, Sri Lanka and the Maoist insurgency in India. Theoretically, the research draws upon insights from: 1) conflict research, in particular the complex dynamic of social navigation in such settings; 2) academic debates on research ethics; 3) the sociology of knowledge production in academia, and 4) critical post-colonial theory focusing on identity and power inequalities in knowledge production in and beyond North-South relations. Methodologically it will be conducted through interviews with researchers and brokers and a workshop with brokers that will also result in a book. Forskare som jobbar i konfliktzoner och andra osäkra områden världen över är väl medvetna om vikten av att ha en bra forskningsassistent, samt att ha kontakt med rätt mellanhänder och fixare. Utan dem hade en stor del av våra forskningsresultat inte blivit till, vår kunskap hade varit enormt mycket tunnare och vi hade levt än farligare under våra fältvistelser. Trots att vi är väl medvetna om detta så blir våra fältassistenter och fixare sällan mer än namn i förord till forskningspublikationer. Att forskningsassistenter och olika typer av fixare förblir dolda i våra forskningskulisser är både etiskt och metodologiskt ett faktum som är djupt problematiskt.Syftet med detta projekt är att förstå den triangulära dynamiken mellan forskare, forskningsassistenter/fixare och forskningsresultat i osäkra områden. Denna dynamik har förblivit en blind fläck i både kvantitativ och kvalitativ forskning. Än mer allvarligt är en ny tendens att många forskningsmiljöer begränsar forskarens möjlighet att utföra fältarbeten i osäkra områden, samtidigt som många värdländer för vår forskning gör det svårare att få forskningstillstånd utan lokala samarbetspartner. Även om vi på många sätt är positiva till dessa processer ser vi att det utifrån etiska (ska vi exempelvis låta lokala forskningsassistenter utföra arbeten som anses för farliga för oss?) och metodologiska perspektiv (om vi redan nu har begränsad kontroll över vårt forskningsmaterial, vad händer om fältassistenter och fixare får ytterligare kontroll över detta?) uppkommer stora frågor som i dagsläget kräver svar.Projektet har en unik forskningsdesign då fyra lokala forskningsassistenter är en del av projektet och att en av projektets huvudutkomster är en bok där lokala fixare och assistenter själv kommer att skriva om deras erfarenheter. Projektet fokuserar på fyra områden: två i Afrika (den pågående konflikten i Demokratiska Republiken Kongo och den avslutade i Sierra Leone) och två områden i Asien (den avslutade konflikten på Sri Lanka och de pågående, mer lågintensiva, Maoistiska upproren i Indien). Projektet leds av tre forskare som har mångåriga erfarenheter från de fyra områden vi forskar på. Teoretiskt är projektet format kring kunskap från 1) konfliktforskning, speciellt kring processer av "social navigation" i konfliktzoner; 2) akademiska debatter om forskningsetik; 3) sociologisk teoribildning kring kunskapsproduktion i forskningsvärlden; och 4) postkoloniala perspektiv kring identitet och kunskapsproduktion i situationer med ojämlika maktförhållanden.

Since the majority of children first see a primary health worker when sick, recent global health initiatives have focused on strengthening community health programs to provide early access to antimalarial and antimicrobial drugs. However, the role of supportive therapies, involving the maintenance of a normal glucose and electrolyte balance, has been given limited attention. Hypoglycaemia is a known predictor of poor outcome with a case fatality rate of as much as 42%. In sub-Saharan African hospitals up to 7.3% of children admitted with fever present with hypoglycaemia. The majority of these children have been referred from lower level facilities and development of hypoglycaemia could potentially have been averted if stabilising treatment had been started already at the health centre. We will do a baseline study in two districts in Malawi to assess the prevalence of paediatric dysglycemia among children with severe illness in primary health facilities and the risk of post-referral hypoglycaemia. Results will feed into a cluster-randomized trial to evaluate the impact of administrating pre-referral sublingual glucose and continuous oral rehydration solution on the incidence of post-referral hypoglycaemia. Our results will highlight the potential need to revise pre-referral management guidelines in order to increase child survival in acute illness. Den globala barnadödligheten har minskat under senaste åren, men fortfarande dör varje år nästan sex miljoner barn under fem år, de flesta av dem av behandlingsbara infektionssjukdomar som lunginflammation, diarré och malaria. Majoriteten dödsfall sker i Afrika söder om Sahara. För att förbättra tillgängligheten av behandling har världshälsoorganisationen utvecklat olika strategier för att förenkla diagnostiken av de vanligaste sjukdomarna på vårdcentraler och med hjälp av sjukvårdsvolontärer på by-nivå. Basen i omhändertagandet av barn med akut sjukdom i dessa strategier är tidig behandling med antibiotika och antimalarialäkemedel. Terapi som syftar till att understödja basala vitalfunktioner, som att ge vätska, syrgas och socker, har däremot fått mindre fokus och är många gånger påtagligt eftersatt i resursfattiga hälsosystem.Lågt blodsocker är förenat med påtagligt sämre prognos vid en akut sjukdom men symptomen på lågt blodsocker är ofta diffusa och därmed svåra att diagnostisera. Det är känt att nästan hälften av barn som läggs in på sjukhus med blodsockernivåer under det av världshälsoorganisationen definierade gränsvärdet dör och vid inskrivning på sjukhus har upp till åtta procent livshotande lågt blodsocker. Flertalet av dessa barn är remitterade från en lägre vårdnivå, som vårdcentral, men på grund av komplicerande omständigheter kan det ofta ta lång tid innan barnet når den slutliga remiss-instansen vilket ökar risken för att blodsockret sjunkit för lågt vid ankomsten till sjukhuset. Det är därför viktigt att även vårdcentraler har möjlighet att ge vård som hjälper till att stabilisera ett sjukt barn till dess att det anländer till nästa vårdnivå.Vi vill i denna studie undersöka möjligheterna att minska antalet barn som utvecklar livshotande lågt blodsocker från det att de remitteras från vårdcentral tills dess att de anländer till sjukhus. Eftersom det saknas data över hur vanligt det är med lågt blodsocker på vårdcentraler i låginkomstländer planerar vi först en baslinjeundersökning. I denna involveras totalt 30 vårdcentraler i två distrikt i Malawi; Blantyre och Zomba. Barn mellan en månad och tolv år som söker vård på dessa vårdcentraler med tecken till svår sjukdom/remitteringsbehov kommer att få lämna ett blodprov för att kontrollera blodsockervärdet. De barn som remitteras vidare kommer att följas upp då de anländer till sin slutliga remissinstans, sjukhuset, för en ny kontroll av blodsockervärdet. Vårdnadshavarna kommer också att intervjuas för att få information om hur barnen ätit och druckit under sjukdomen samt hur länge de varit sjuka och hur lång tid det tagit att ta sig till sjukhuset. Informationen från föräldrarna bidrar till att ge en tidsuppfattning om sjukdomsförloppet, om barnet varit sjukt länge eller inte, och om det har fått i sig näring och energi under sjukdomstiden.Vi kommer med hjälp av ovan baslinjeundersökning att kunna presentera 1)hur vanligt det är med lågt blodsocker bland barn som söker vård på vårdcentral samt 2)risken för att utveckla livshotande lågt blodsocker från remisstillfället till det att barnet anländer till sjukhus och eventuella faktorer i barnets omständigheter som bidrar till denna risk.Nästa steg i den planerade studien är att dela upp vårdcentralerna i kontroll och interventions-grupper. Vårdcentralerna i kontrollgruppen kommer inte att ändra något i sin hantering av barn som remitteras vidare till högre vårdnivå. De vårdcentraler som ingår i interventionsgruppen kommer istället att behandla alla barn som remitteras, oavsett blodsockernivå, med sockerlösning under tungan och instruktioner till föräldrarna om att med regelbundna intervall ge barnet sockerinnehållande vätskeersättning fram till dess att de når den slutliga remissinstansen. På sjukhuset kommer vi mäta barnets blodsocker på nytt.

Risk communication and social mobilisation are powerful, but often overlooked tools in combating a disease outbreak. This research project aims to understand how these interventions work and how they influenced the epidemic curve, as they could be the key to dramatically alter the course of an infectious disease outbreak.Using a mix of quantitative, qualitative and quasi-experimental methods, the proposed studies will in four years assess the influence communication channels such as radio, governmental campaigns and community sources had on Ebola-specific knowledge, behaviour, risk perception and stigma. Furthermore, it will look at how risk communication affected the epidemic curve and interview journalists and stakeholders to determine what can be learned from this outbreak. An experiment in which radio journalists and an audience are asked to create and listen to stories of a hypothetical new disease outbreak, will give further insights into what kind of messages are effective.Collaborating with local and international actors in Sierra Leone and the USA, this project has the potential to gather evidence in a new combination of research fields and can produce practical recommendations for future health emergencies. This is of paramount importance so that a devastating outbreak of this magnitude will never be repeated. Ebolautbrottet i Västafrika 2014-2016 orsakade enormt mänskligt lidande och stora ekonomiska förluster i några av världens fattigaste länder: Liberia, Sierra Leone och Guinea. Sammanlagt dog 11 000 personer, men minst lika många beräknas ha dött pga av att hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet i mångt och mycket slutade att fungera. I tillägg stängde många skolor och ett stort antal barn fick under nästan ett års tid inte gå i skolan.Vad var det då som slutligen stoppade det största ebolautbrottet någonsin? Det finns flera föreslagna anledningar, bl.a. att internationell hjälp till slut började nå fram. Sannolikt var det dock beteendeförändringar hos befolkningen som var avgörande. Genom att fler började tvätta sina händer, så kallade säkra begravningar accepterades och att fler sjuka fördes till ebolacenter där de inte kunde smitta andra började antalet fall att minska. Lite är känt om hur dessa beteendeförändringar som ibland gick på tvärs mot lokala sedvänjor kom till stånd. I detta projekt vill vi studera hur budskap i lokala media och från lokala ledare påverkade människor att ändra sitt beteende. Sierra Leone var det land som drabbades allra hårdast under ebolautbrottet. Redan innan utbrottet levde mer än hälften av invånarna i extrem fattigdom, och landet hade den högsta mödradödligheten i världen. Landets hälso- och sjukvårdssystem var inte på något vis förberett på ett utbrott av den här storleken. När de första fallen dök upp i den östra delen av landet i maj 2014, misslyckades försöken att begränsa utbrottet, och snart dök de första sjukdomsfallen upp i huvudstaden Freetown, där viruset fick fäste i de fattiga slumområdena. Inom bara några veckor ökade antalet sjukdomsfall och dödsfall kraftigt över hela landet. Under den här tiden spreds samtidigt många rykten om sjukdomen, många av dem falska. Bl.a. spreds ryktet att sjukdomen var dödlig och inte gick att bota, något som avskräckte många från att söka vård, utan vårdades istället i hemmet där familjemedlemmar riskerade att smittas. Ryktesspridningen uppmärksammades tidigt av såväl frivilligorganisationer som av Ministeriet för hälsa och sanitet i Sierra Leone. Man började därför intervjua ett slumpmässigt urval av befolkningen för att ta reda på vad man visste om ebola och vilka missuppfattningar som var vanligt förekommande. Intervjuer genomfördes fyra gånger under ebolautbrottet.Med syftet att förstå hur i första hand riskkommunikation, det vill säga vilket budskap som sänds ut till allmänheten, och i andra hand social mobilisering (när människor kollektivt går samman och identifierar brister i samhället och sedan tar initiativ och agerar för förändring) påverkar kunskap och attityder kring ebola, men också hur de påverkat utbrottets gång.I det föreslagna forskningsprojektet planerar vi att använda informationen från dessa intervjuer, länka den med information kring hur sjukdomsfallen spreds samt intervjuer med lokala journalister för att ta reda på: 1) Vilken typ av media som hade störst effekt för att ändra människors kunskap och beteende om ebola; 2) Hur olika mediakampanjer och även olika initiativ till social mobilisering påverkade ökning eller minskning av antalet sjukdomsfall; 3) Vad upplevde lokala journalister att det fanns för hinder för att rapportera kring ebolautbrottet?; 4) Vilken typ av information till lokala radiojournalister leder till störst förståelse av en sjukdom under ett pågående utbrott?; 5) Har de aktörer som varit inblandade i ebolautbrottet på något vis nu ändrat sina strategier kring riskkommunikation, och hur man planerar att sända ut information vid ett nytt utbrott av en infektionssjukdom?I projektet kommer forskare från Sierra Leone att samarbeta med forskare från USA och Karolinska Institutet. Forskarna har olika tvärvetenskaplig bakgrund, från medicin, infektionssjukdomar, antropologi och media för att på bästa sätt kunna säkerställa att projektet får med alla aspekter och därmed kommer att kunna förstå hur riskkommunikation och social Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Sierra Leone Infectious disease control Basic Health Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2017-05581_3-1 Sweden Striking in one of the world’s poorest countries, Ebola caused enormous human and economic losses in Sierra Leone, during and after the outbreak in 2014-2016.

Lite är känt om hur dessa beteendeförändringar som ibland gick på tvärs mot lokala sedvänjor kom till stånd. I detta projekt vill vi studera hur budskap i lokala media och från lokala ledare påverkade människor att ändra sitt beteende. Sierra Leone var det land som drabbades allra hårdast under ebolautbrottet. Redan innan utbrottet levde mer än hälften av invånarna i extrem fattigdom, och landet hade den högsta mödradödligheten i världen. Landets hälso- och sjukvårdssystem var inte på något vis förberett på ett utbrott av den här storleken. När de första fallen dök upp i den östra delen av landet i maj 2014, misslyckades försöken att begränsa utbrottet, och snart dök de första sjukdomsfallen upp i huvudstaden Freetown, där viruset fick fäste i de fattiga slumområdena. Inom bara några veckor ökade antalet sjukdomsfall och dödsfall kraftigt över hela landet. Under den här tiden spreds samtidigt många rykten om sjukdomen, många av dem falska. Bl.a. spreds ryktet att sjukdomen var dödlig och inte gick att bota, något som avskräckte många från att söka vård, utan vårdades istället i hemmet där familjemedlemmar riskerade att smittas. Ryktesspridningen uppmärksammades tidigt av såväl frivilligorganisationer som av Ministeriet för hälsa och sanitet i Sierra Leone. Man började därför intervjua ett slumpmässigt urval av befolkningen för att ta reda på vad man visste om ebola och vilka missuppfattningar som var vanligt förekommande. Intervjuer genomfördes fyra gånger under ebolautbrottet.Med syftet att förstå hur i första hand riskkommunikation, det vill säga vilket budskap som sänds ut till allmänheten, och i andra hand social mobilisering (när människor kollektivt går samman och identifierar brister i samhället och sedan tar initiativ och agerar för förändring) påverkar kunskap och attityder kring ebola, men också hur de påverkat utbrottets gång.I det föreslagna forskningsprojektet planerar vi att använda informationen från dessa intervjuer, länka den med information kring hur sjukdomsfallen spreds samt intervjuer med lokala journalister för att ta reda på: 1) Vilken typ av media som hade störst effekt för att ändra människors kunskap och beteende om ebola; 2) Hur olika mediakampanjer och även olika initiativ till social mobilisering påverkade ökning eller minskning av antalet sjukdomsfall; 3) Vad upplevde lokala journalister att det fanns för hinder för att rapportera kring ebolautbrottet?; 4) Vilken typ av information till lokala radiojournalister leder till störst förståelse av en sjukdom under ett pågående utbrott?; 5) Har de aktörer som varit inblandade i ebolautbrottet på något vis nu ändrat sina strategier kring riskkommunikation, och hur man planerar att sända ut information vid ett nytt utbrott av en infektionssjukdom?I projektet kommer forskare från Sierra Leone att samarbeta med forskare från USA och Karolinska Institutet.

As a first step, the research team will create an analytical framework for identifying and categorizing climate finance coordination practices. The team will then review of climate financing coordination trends and instruments. A third step will study coordination experiences in the context of four multilateral climate initiatives.  A final phase of the analysis will consist of a comparative study of climate finance coordination in Kenya and Zambia. The research team will collect evidence through semi-structured interviews and primary and secondary documents. Researchers at the University of Lund and Stockholm Environment Institute as well as researchers at the Danish Institute for International Studies and the Christian Michelsen Institute will carry out the project.  The project will contribute to an improved understanding of the factors shaping the effective use of funding of climate mitigation and adaptation in low income countries.  It will inform developing countries’ options for engaging effectively with funders and  how funders can improve the effectiveness of climate finance, thus supporting sustainable development. Sedan början av de internationella klimatförhandlingarna under 1990-talet har de rika länderna utlovat finansiellt stöd till utvecklingsländerna för klimatomställning. Under en lång period implementerades inte dessa löften och det politiska trycket från utvecklingsländerna ökade. I Köpenhamn 2009 sattes slutligen en siffra som mål för klimatfinansieringen: att de rika länderna skulle mobilisera 100 miljarder dollar per år vid år 2020, och att flödena skulle ”snabb-startas” med 30 miljarder dollar under perioden 2010-2012. Man specificerade också att denna nya klimatfinansiering skulle vara ”ny och utöver” existerade åtaganden inom det vanliga utvecklingsbiståndet.Klimatfinansiering till utvecklingsländer är viktigt av tre skäl. För det första vet vi att klimatförändringar påverkar låginkomstländer värren än högt utvecklade. Klimatförändring undergräver försörjningsmöjligheter, produktion och infrastruktur, och ökar riskerna för livsmedelsosäkerhet, konflikter och förflyttning av hushåll. Investeringar i klimatanpassningsåtgärder är alltså mycket viktigt för fattigdomsbekämpning, mänskliga rättigheter och politisk stabilitet.För det andra kan åtgärder för mer kolsnåla samhällen och energisystem leda till långsiktig tillväxt och utveckling, till exempel genom att förnybar energi kan främja både småskalig landsbygdsutveckling och storskalig industriproduktion. Investeringar i klimatomställning och utsläppsminskningar kan alltså även dem bidra till långsiktig ekonomisk utveckling i låginkomstländer, samt bidra till ett mer stabilt klimat globalt.För det tredje är det politiskt viktigt att klimatfinansieringen fungerar så att tilliten och trovärdigheten bibehålls eller ökar i det internationella klimatsamarbetet. Om villkoren inte upplevs rättvisa riskerar samarbetet att stagnera.Efter överenskommelsen kring klimatfinansiering år 2009 har dock ett stort antal olika fonder och finansiella instrument växt fram, och en mängd etablerade och nya institutioner har engagerat sig. De rika länderna använder sig både av speciella klimatfonder etablerade under FN:s klimatkonvention (t.ex. Gröna utvecklingsfonden, Anpassningsfonden), multilaterala utvecklingsbanker (t.ex. Världsbankens klimatinvesteringsfonder), samt sitt eget bilaterala bistånd för att möta sina åtaganden. Detta har lett till ett komplext system, där olika definitioner används av olika aktörer för att avgöra vad som får räknas som klimatfinansiering och inte och där givarinstitutioner har olika regelverk kring hur man ansöker om finansiering och hur olika ändamål prioriteras. Flera fonder och givare har till och med börjat stödja kapacitetsutveckling för att utvecklingsländer ens ska kunna navigera i systemet och ansöka om finansiering.I det här projektet söker vi bättre förstå varför både givare och mottagare av klimatfinansiering väljer att koordinera sig eller inte, och hur det i sin tur påverkar hur effektivt systemet kan svara upp mot de klimatomställningsbehov som finns. Med koordinering menas kollektiva arrangemang för informationsdelning, samstämmighet i policy, och hur finansiella medel kanaliseras och levereras. Under vilka omständigheter väljer givare att koordinera sig och när väljer de att använda sig av oberoende fonder och strategier? När väljer de att spara eller dela klimatfinansieringsmedel samt inflytande över hur de spenderas? Hur agerar mottagare i det komplexa systemet och stödjer de försök att koordinera mera?Inom det vanliga utvecklingsbiståndet finns en lång historia av försök att koordinera mer, harmonisera givarnas krav och att göra biståndet mer mottagardrivet. I det här projektet använder vi oss av dessa erfarenheter för att förstå fördelar och nackdelar som aktörerna upplever. Vi fokuserar framförallt på hur man ser på kostnader och nyttor av att koordinera och vilken roll normer har för givarnas beslut, men även vilka strategiska möjligheter ett okoordinerat system innebär både för givare och mottagare.

Climate change predictions suggest high production areas (Ghana and Cote d’Ivoire) will become less suitable for cocoa cultivation in the future, whilst low-income, low-production areas (Togo and Sierra Leone) will benefit from better growing conditions. However, these countries are not yet ready to sustainably increase production, since climate change is also likely to significantly increase disease pressure. The major constraints to cocoa production in the area are viral (cocoa swollen shoot virus) and oomycete (cocoa black pod) diseases causing losses of up to 5 billion USD annually. We aim to develop new tools to revive Western African cocoa production through better disease detection and monitoring, better farmer education and new strategies for resistance breeding and disease control. In partnership with the IITA (Nigeria) and West African National Cocoa Research Programmes, we will train two new PhD students in high-throughput phenotyping and remote sensing for disease assessment in Togo and Sierra Leone. RNAseq of infected cocoa will identify effectors (pathogenicity determinants produced by the pathogens) and resistance or susceptibility genes within host germplasm. As well as guiding the deployment of more durable control measures, this data will also make important contributions in the field of molecular plant pathology. Kakao (Theobroma cacao L.) är en viktig avsalugröda i de tropiska delarna av västra Afrika, där den odlas av ungefär 4-5 miljoner småskaliga odlare. En överväldigande majoritet av världens kakao odlas i Afrika, som producerar 2,7 miljoner ton (68 % av världsproduktionen). Kakao odlas framför allt i Väst- och Centralafrika. Den största producenten är Elfenbenskusten som står för 31 % av världsproduktionen. Andra viktiga producenter i Västafrika är Ghana, Nigeria, Kamerun, Sierra Leone och Togo. De tre främsta producenterna, Elfenbenskusten, Ghana och Nigeria står tillsammans för 98,5 % av kakaoproduktionen i Västafrika, medan Togo, Sierra Leone och Liberia står för 1,5 % av produktionen.Enligt prognoser om framtida klimatförändringar kommer de områden som för närvarande producerar mest kakao (Ghana och Elfenbenskusten) att bli mindre lämpliga för kakaoodling i framtiden, medan områden med låg inkomst och låg kakaoproduktion (Togo och Sierra Leone) kommer att få bättre odlingsbetingelser. Emellertid är dessa länder ännu inte redo för att öka sin produktion på ett hållbart sätt, eftersom klimatförändringarna antagligen även kommer att öka sjukdomstrycket. Därför skulle insatser i dessa länder ha stor effekt på kakaoproduktionen i framtiden, vilket dessutom skulle bidra till minskad fattigdom i två av Västafrikas fattigaste länder. Dessa länder har hittills inte fått något stöd från ”World Cocoa Foundation” eller andra internationella organ som stöder kakaoproduktion. De är därför i desperat behov av utländska investeringar för att kunna återuppliva sin kakaoproduktion.Det finns många anledningar till att kakaosektorn har dålig konkurrenskraft i dessa tre länder, men låg produktion till följd av skadegörare och sjukdomar är en mycket viktig faktor. De så kallade ”Cocoa black pod disease” och ”Cocoa Swollen Shoot Virus” är de viktigaste begränsande faktorerna för både kakaoproduktion och –kvalité. Detta projekt inriktar sig på dessa sjukdomar i Togo och Sierra Leone, som ett steg i att återuppliva kakaoproduktionen där.För att kunna bekämpa sjukdomen på ett tillfredsställande sätt behöver vi först förstå hur och när den bryter ut, och bestämma vilka sjukdomsalstrande organismer som orsakar den. I Västafrika finns det två närbesläktade algsvampar som kan orsaka ”cocoa black pod disease”, Phytophthora palmivora and Phytophthora megakarya. Av dessa två är P. megakarya den mest destruktiva. Eftersom den mesta kakaon odlas utanför städerna av småskaliga odlare som för det mesta inte kan diagnosticera eller behandla sjukdomen, så finns det ganska lite statistik om vilka arter som orsakar sjukdomen och hur allvarliga angreppen är.För att bygga upp forskningsförmågan i Sierra Leone och Togo så tänker vi utbilda en doktorand i varje land, så att de får lära sig att undersöka kakaoodlingar i stor skala och identifiera sjukdomar med hjälp av drönare. Dessutom vill vi utbilda dem i diagnostik, epidemiologi och bekämpning av kakaosjukdomar. I kombination med modern infrastruktur för molekylär analys kommer den kunskapen att göra det möjligt för forskare i dessa två länder att bedriva forskning av hög kvalitet, och ge värdefull hjälp till kakaoodlarna. Forskningen kommer att utföras tillsammans med International Institute of Tropical Research (IITA) i Ibadan i Nigeria och de västafrikanska nationella kakaoprogrammen.För att identifiera faktorer som påverkar smittsamheten hos de sjukdomsalstrande organismerna och identifiera resistensfaktorer hos kakaoplantan kommer vi även att DNA-sekvensera infekterade kakaoplantor.

Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Togo Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector SE-0-SE-29-2017-05621_2-1 Sweden Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) is a valuable cash crop, worth 100 billion USD per annum. 70% is produced on smallholder farms in West Africa. Climate change predictions suggest high production areas (Ghana and Cote d’Ivoire) will become less suitable for cocoa cultivation in the future, whilst low-income, low-production areas (Togo and Sierra Leone) will benefit from better growing conditions. However, these countries are not yet ready to sustainably increase production, since climate change is also likely to significantly increase disease pressure. The major constraints to cocoa production in the area are viral (cocoa swollen shoot virus) and oomycete (cocoa black pod) diseases causing losses of up to 5 billion USD annually. We aim to develop new tools to revive Western African cocoa production through better disease detection and monitoring, better farmer education and new strategies for resistance breeding and disease control. In partnership with the IITA (Nigeria) and West African National Cocoa Research Programmes, we will train two new PhD students in high-throughput phenotyping and remote sensing for disease assessment in Togo and Sierra Leone. RNAseq of infected cocoa will identify effectors (pathogenicity determinants produced by the pathogens) and resistance or susceptibility genes within host germplasm. As well as guiding the deployment of more durable control measures, this data will also make important contributions in the field of molecular plant pathology. Kakao (Theobroma cacao L.) är en viktig avsalugröda i de tropiska delarna av västra Afrika, där den odlas av ungefär 4-5 miljoner småskaliga odlare. En överväldigande majoritet av världens kakao odlas i Afrika, som producerar 2,7 miljoner ton (68 % av världsproduktionen). Kakao odlas framför allt i Väst- och Centralafrika. Den största producenten är Elfenbenskusten som står för 31 % av världsproduktionen. Andra viktiga producenter i Västafrika är Ghana, Nigeria, Kamerun, Sierra Leone och Togo. De tre främsta producenterna, Elfenbenskusten, Ghana och Nigeria står tillsammans för 98,5 % av kakaoproduktionen i Västafrika, medan Togo, Sierra Leone och Liberia står för 1,5 % av produktionen.Enligt prognoser om framtida klimatförändringar kommer de områden som för närvarande producerar mest kakao (Ghana och Elfenbenskusten) att bli mindre lämpliga för kakaoodling i framtiden, medan områden med låg inkomst och låg kakaoproduktion (Togo och Sierra Leone) kommer att få bättre odlingsbetingelser. Emellertid är dessa länder ännu inte redo för att öka sin produktion på ett hållbart sätt, eftersom klimatförändringarna antagligen även kommer att öka sjukdomstrycket. Därför skulle insatser i dessa länder ha stor effekt på kakaoproduktionen i framtiden, vilket dessutom skulle bidra till minskad fattigdom i två av Västafrikas fattigaste länder. Dessa länder har hittills inte fått något stöd från ”World Cocoa Foundation” eller andra internationella organ som stöder kakaoproduktion. De är därför i desperat behov av utländska investeringar för att kunna återuppliva sin kakaoproduktion.Det finns många anledningar till att kakaosektorn har dålig konkurrenskraft i dessa tre länder, men låg produktion till följd av skadegörare och sjukdomar är en mycket viktig faktor. De så kallade ”Cocoa black pod disease” och ”Cocoa Swollen Shoot Virus” är de viktigaste begränsande faktorerna för både kakaoproduktion och –kvalité. Detta projekt inriktar sig på dessa sjukdomar i Togo och Sierra Leone, som ett steg i att återuppliva kakaoproduktionen där.För att kunna bekämpa sjukdomen på ett tillfredsställande sätt behöver vi först förstå hur och när den bryter ut, och bestämma vilka sjukdomsalstrande organismer som orsakar den. I Västafrika finns det två närbesläktade algsvampar som kan orsaka ”cocoa black pod disease”, Phytophthora palmivora and Phytophthora megakarya. Av dessa två är P. megakarya den mest destruktiva. Eftersom den mesta kakaon odlas utanför städerna av småskaliga odlare som för det mesta inte kan diagnosticera eller behandla sjukdomen, så finns det ganska lite statistik om vilka arter som orsakar sjukdomen och hur allvarliga angreppen är.För att bygga upp forskningsförmågan i Sierra Leone och Togo så tänker vi utbilda en doktorand i varje land, så att de får lära sig att undersöka kakaoodlingar i stor skala och identifiera sjukdomar med hjälp av drönare. Dessutom vill vi utbilda dem i diagnostik, epidemiologi och bekämpning av kakaosjukdomar. I kombination med modern infrastruktur för molekylär analys kommer den kunskapen att göra det möjligt för forskare i dessa två länder att bedriva forskning av hög kvalitet, och ge värdefull hjälp till kakaoodlarna. Forskningen kommer att utföras tillsammans med International Institute of Tropical Research (IITA) i Ibadan i Nigeria och de västafrikanska nationella kakaoprogrammen.För att identifiera faktorer som påverkar smittsamheten hos de sjukdomsalstrande organismerna och identifiera resistensfaktorer hos kakaoplantan kommer vi även att DNA-sekvensera infekterade kakaoplantor. Resultatet av de experimenten kommer att hjälpa oss att hitta nya hållbara metoder för att bekämpa kakaosjukdomar.Genom att förbättra detektion och bekämpning av kakaosjukdomar kommer vi att bidra till en ökning av kakaoproduktionen och en förbättring av kakaokvaliteten i låginkomstländer i Västafrika. Detta kommer att bidra till minskad fattigdom, och en ökade inkomster, sysselsättning och handelsutbyte i Togo och Sierra Leone.

Drawing on a comparative case study of four aid chains and a theoretical approach that combines neoinstitutional and anthropological theory on translation, this project intends to make a contribution towards an organizational theory that may explain the phenomenon of “obsessive measurement disorder” (Natsios, 2010) and identify key organizational mechanisms that may help prevent overregulation and control and instead foster constructive learning that benefits aid results.  The study will be managed and conducted jointly by Janet Vähämäki and Susanna Alexius, both organization scholars and researchers in business administration at Score (Stockholm Centre for Organizational Research) at Stockholm University and Stockholm School of Economics. Besatt mätsyndrom i biståndet?: En komparativ studie av hur intermediära organisationer i biståndskedjan översätter krav på resultatmätningUnder det senaste decenniet har det ställts hårdare krav på att redovisa resultat samt att granska pengars användning i biståndsprojekt. Vissa forskare menar att vi idag lever i ett ”granskningssamhälle” (Power, 1999) eller ett "resultatmätningssamhälle" (Bowerman et al., 2000) där effektivitet framför allt bedöms genom mätbara prestationer. Kraven på redovisning och det ökade antalet aktörer som granskar, utgör en förändrad institutionell omvärld som skapar nya förutsättningar för aktörer som är involverade i biståndsverksamhet. Denna ansökan tar sin utgångspunkt i detta nya gransknings/resultatmätningssamhälle och dess påverkan på biståndsarbetets organisering.Att känna till hur pengar används och kunna visa upp vilka resultat t ex en biståndsverksamhet levererar är givetvis viktigt, både för att förbättra verksamheten men också för att bibehålla trovärdigheten för biståndet. Forskning har emellertid visat att det även finns en baksida med mätningar och redovisning. En oönskad konsekvens har beskrivits av Natsios (2010) som myntat begreppet ”besatt mätsyndrom” (obsessive measurement disorder). Begreppet pekar på att kraven på redovisningsbara resultat i biståndet ibland kan bli kontraproduktivt om organisationen blir alltför upptagen med själva mätningarna och tappar fokus på biståndsarbetet i sig. Typiskt för detta syndrom är att mätningar uppfattas som ett mål i sig, snarare än som ett medel för att nå underliggande effekter, som inom biståndet t ex kan vara minskad mödradödlighet eller ökad läskunnighet. Detta projekt syftar övergripande till att öka förståelsen för varför krav på resultatmätning i vissa situationer tycks hindra och i andra lägen kan stödja biståndsarbetet. Vi vill särskilt bidra till att förklara hur fenomenet ”besatt mätsyndrom” uppstår och hur det kan förebyggas, genom att diskutera var, när och hur det uppstår och vad som kan hindra en sådan negativ utveckling till förmån för konstruktivt lärande.En viktig utgångspunkt för studiens design är att bistånd ofta förmedlas i ”biståndskedjor” (Wallace, Bornstein and Chapman, 2006) d v s ett större system av samverkande organisationer, både nationellt och internationellt. De samverkande organisationerna benämner vi ”intermediärer” och de kan vara såväl myndigheter som föreningar, företag eller forskningsinstitut vilka samverkar i en kedja från t ex en statlig finansiär som Sida till de slutliga mottagarna av biståndet. Begreppet ”intermediär” är passande eftersom det lyfter fram organisationens aktiva medlande roll i förhållande till olika kontrollkrav som gäller bistånd. Sådana krav kan dels förmedlas vertikalt genom biståndskedjan från Sida till de slutliga mottagarna, men också horisontellt, från gransknings/resultatmätningssamhället och den marknad för granskning och kontroll som idag är ett faktum att förhålla sig till.Ett centralt, men hittills understuderat kännetecken för intermediären är dess dubbla roller där de flesta intermediärer är både givare och mottagare, både granskare och granskad. Som mottagare tolkar de vilka krav de behöver uppfylla för att erhålla finansiering. Som givare reglerar de vad nästa led behöver göra för att erhålla medlen. Nästa led i kedjan gör likadant. Det är väl känt att kontroll ofta föder mer kontroll. Det finns därför en risk att en organisation som upplever sig bli alltför hårt kontrollerad av sin givare väljer att kontrollera nästkommande led än hårdare. Forskning har dock visat att medarbetare i organisationer, trots ett starkt yttre gransknings- och mätningstryck, ibland “struntar i” nya krav och fortsätter att bedriva biståndsarbete som tidigare. Studier vittnar också om att medarbetare efter en tids anpassning lär sig att hantera kraven så att de upplevs stödja lärandet och utvecklingen mot ett effektivt bistånd.

However given the current lack of transport infrastructure and electricity they cannot be preserved and will perish. The overall purpose of this project is to develop and implement a low cost, and robust solar fruit preservation technology that can enhance local food and economic security without depending on the co-development of infrastructure. In the first part of this project, prototype pouches of breathable material have been developed and demonstrated how to concentrate fruit juice using only solar energy. The pouches allows water to evaporate, but protects the juice from contamination by microorganisms and insects. During evaporation the sugar concentration will increase and as most fruits have low pH it becomes storage stable (i.e. halts microbial growth) and can be stored in the household for the lean season, or sold to earn cash. Finally, specific strains of Lactobacillus can be used to improve the taste, and other strains can improve digestion or destruct undesirable substances as phytates, tannins, and polyphenols.  Methods: -Optimize design with respect to drying rate, heat and mass transfer at varying atmospheric and solar conditions. -Verify the Solar Assisted Pervaporation technique under realistic conditions, product quality, and ease of use for farmers.  This technology could also be used in developed countries for other fruits. Är det rimligt att många går hungriga trots att det odlas mat i tillräcklig mängd i flera utvecklingsländer? Detta projekt går ut på att undersöka och utveckla en teknisk lösning som på ett hållbart sätt kan förbättra matframställningen i utvecklingsländer.I många utvecklingsländer, produceras det egentligen tillräckligt med mat för att täcka behovet för hela befolkningen ändå finns det människor som är hungriga. Mängden skämd mat i världen ökar och Livsmedels- och jordbruksorganisationer och FN uppskattar att en tredjedel av den mat som produceras aldrig når våra kök utan i stället förvinner längs matkedjan. Detta är en otrolig mängd mat! En anledning till att studera frukter är att de mognar under kort period och ofta kräver varsam hantering. I många utvecklingsländer, särskilt avlägsna områden saknas både el och konserveringsutrustning samt infrastruktur för att transportera mogen frukt till städer och marknader. På detta sätt går mycket frukt till spillo även om de lokala personerna förtär frukterna genom hela mogningsperioden så finns det frukt kvar sedan befolkningstätheten är så låg i dessa områden. Ibland kan det finnas utomhus soltorkning men då svårt att undvika regn, smuts, insekter, bakterier, svamptillväxt och djur som kan kontaminera produkten när den torkas.Detta projekt bygger på forskning om separationstekniker vid inst. livsmedelsteknik, LTH och i detta fall koncentrering av frukt- eller grönsakssafter eller puréer med hjälp av ett membrantyg som släpper igenom vattenånga men hindrar bakterier och insekter att komma in.

This project focus on the important RNA viruses Ebola, Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever and Zika, to understand the basic biology of proteins involved in virus-host interactions and to validate these as novel targets for antiviral therapy. To target host proteins involved in virus replication processes is one way to avoid resistance development that often is a problem for treatments directed to viral proteins. During 4 years we plan to work in a multidisciplinary project team involving virologists, molecular biologists, medicinal chemists, pharmacokinetic experts, pharmacologists and toxicologists from several universities and research institutions to generate new knowledge about pathogenic RNA viruses and develop novel antiviral compounds targeting these pathogens. We also plan to collaborate with experts in the countries affected by the studied viruses to evaluate the effect of our compounds on clinical patient isolates. By combining existing expertise, with unique access to biosafety level 4 laboratories and in vivo animal models as well as state of the art drug discovery facilities we can form the critical mass needed to translate basic science into novel general antiviral treatment options for these serious infections. RNA-virus orsakar årligen allvarliga infektioner med stor inverkan på människors hälsa över hela världen. Detta projekt fokuserar på RNA virusen Ebola, Krim-Kongo hemorragisk feber och Zika som på grund av sina allvarliga konsekvenser ingår i WHOs initiativ för pandemi och epidemiska sjukdomar (PED). Vid det senaste utbrottet av ebolavirus (EBOV) i Liberia, Sierra Leone och Guinea smittades över 28 000 människor och över 11 000 dog. En annan allvarlig viral hemorragisk feber som är spridd i över 30 länder på flera kontinenter orsakas av det fästingburna Krim-Kongo hemorragisk feber viruset (CCHFV) och har en dödlighet på 5-50%. WHOs initiativ inkluderar även allvarliga vektorburna virala sjukdomar som gulafebern, chikungunya-feber, zikafeber och West Nile-feber. Vid det senaste zikavirus (ZIKV) utbrottet i Sydamerika upptäcktes ett troligt samband mellan zikavirusinfektion och mikrocefali hos nyfödda barn och belyste ytterligare allvaret i denna grupp av infektioner.Dessa allvarliga virusinfektioner drabbar ofta de fattigaste delarna av världen hårt. Infektionerna orsakar inte bara allvarliga sjukdomstillstånd med hög dödlighet de har också stora negativa indirekta effekter på samhället och ekonomin i övrigt. Minskad tilltro och användning av sjukvårdssystemen samt minskad ekonomisk aktivitet i samband med ett sjukdomsutbrott leder till ökad fattigdom och undernäring som i sin tur leder till ökad känslighet för andra smittsamma och livshotande sjukdomar. De sjukdomar som är i fokus för detta projekt orsakas av RNA-virus som överförs från djur/vektorer till människor. När människor flyttar till nya geografiska regioner ökar risken att de kommer i kontakt med de djur som är värdar för dessa smittämnen. Faktorer som har bidragit till dessa förändringar är befolkningstillväxt, migration från landsbygden till städerna, internationella resor, fattigdom, krig, och negativa klimat förändringar.Idag är forskningsverksamhet runt dessa högpatogena RNA virus infektioner begränsade eftersom i) hantering av dessa virus kräver högsäkerhetslaboratorier, ii) det finns begränsad tillgång till cell och djurmodeller för att studera sjukdomens patologi och iii) det finns mycket litet ekonomiskt incitament för företag att investera i forskning och läkemedelsutveckling runt dessa RNA virus infektioner då det är osannolikt att investeringskostnaderna återställs.Vi presenterar ett tvärvetenskapligt projekt som omfattar virologer, molekylärbiologer, läkemedelskemister, farmakokinetiska experter, farmakologer och toxikologer från flera universitet och forskningsinstitutioner i Sverige för att generera ny kunskap om patogena RNA virus och utveckla nya antivirala behandlingar för dessa patogener. Vi planerar även att samarbeta med experter i låginkomstländer i de delar av världen som drabbas av den här typen av infektioner för att studera effekten av våra nya molekyler på kliniska isolat från infekterade patienter. Genom att kombinera befintlig kompetens med unik tillgång till laboratorier med biosäkerhetsnivå 4 samt in vivo djurmodeller och toppmoderna faciliteter för läkemedelsutveckling kan vi bilda den kritiska massa som behövs för att studera grundläggande biologiska processer för hur viruset interagerar och utnyttjar humana proteiner och mekanismer för sin replikation med målet att ta fram nya antivirala behandlingsalternativ för dessa allvarliga infektioner. Genom att inrikta oss på humana proteiner involverade i virusets replikationsprocesser kan resistensutveckling undvikas, som ofta är ett problem med behandlingar riktade mot virusproteiner.Vi strävar efter att utveckla biologiskt aktiva småmolekylära hämmare med goda farmakokinetiska egenskaper och säkerhets-toxikologisk profil och validera dessa i proof-of-concept studier in vivo.

This project focus on the important RNA viruses Ebola, Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever and Zika, to understand the basic biology of proteins involved in virus-host interactions and to validate these as novel targets for antiviral therapy. To target host proteins involved in virus replication processes is one way to avoid resistance development that often is a problem for treatments directed to viral proteins. During 4 years we plan to work in a multidisciplinary project team involving virologists, molecular biologists, medicinal chemists, pharmacokinetic experts, pharmacologists and toxicologists from several universities and research institutions to generate new knowledge about pathogenic RNA viruses and develop novel antiviral compounds targeting these pathogens. We also plan to collaborate with experts in the countries affected by the studied viruses to evaluate the effect of our compounds on clinical patient isolates. By combining existing expertise, with unique access to biosafety level 4 laboratories and in vivo animal models as well as state of the art drug discovery facilities we can form the critical mass needed to translate basic science into novel general antiviral treatment options for these serious infections. RNA-virus orsakar årligen allvarliga infektioner med stor inverkan på människors hälsa över hela världen. Detta projekt fokuserar på RNA virusen Ebola, Krim-Kongo hemorragisk feber och Zika som på grund av sina allvarliga konsekvenser ingår i WHOs initiativ för pandemi och epidemiska sjukdomar (PED). Vid det senaste utbrottet av ebolavirus (EBOV) i Liberia, Sierra Leone och Guinea smittades över 28 000 människor och över 11 000 dog.

There is a growing body of research on gender aspects of social media on the one hand and on cyber repression from governments on the other hand. This project puts the two together in order to analyze whether social media is a blessing or a curse for women striving for political office in contentious elections. We investigate this question through a case study of the 2018 Cambodian elections. Cambodia is a repressive state that recently has experienced an ICT-boom, and Facebook has become the by far biggest social media platform in the country. We examine, on the one hand, to what extent and how Facebook is used as a repressive tool against individual women candidates – by the regime or by (groups of) individuals – including whether oppositional women are targeted to a larger extent than regime candidates. On the other hand, we investigate whether Facebook (also) can function as a campaign facilitator for candidates. To capture these aspects we systematically compare the experiences of female and male candidates from both the governing party and the opposition parties. Both quantitative and qualitative text analyses of public Facebook pages of individual candidates are employed as well as semi-structured interviews with a strategic selection of candidates. The project involves two Associate Professors, one Post doc and a PhD student and it spans over three years. Sociala medier, såsom Facebook, Twitter och Instagram, har på ett genomgripande sätt förändrat samhälleliga arenor för offentlig diskussion genom att bidra med helt nya möjligheter för politisk mobilisering och opinionsbildning. Speciellt har dessa nya arenor för politisk aktivism möjliggjort för individer och grupper att komma samman, utveckla idéer och föra fram politiska krav till en mycket lägre kostnad än tidigare, både resursmässigt och socialt. Dock erbjuder social medier också nya verktyg för att tysta och skrämma dem som anses som politiskt obekväma.Detta tudelade sätt varpå sociala medier kan användas för att både främja och kontrollera politisk mobilisering och opinionsbildning kan ses som speciellt intressant i repressiva stater, där den politiska oppositionen vanligtvis förtrycks samtidigt som vissa grupper, såsom kvinnor, kan ha svårt att komma samman utanför den privata sfären. Här erbjuder sociala medier dels en möjlighet för oppositionella och andra marginaliserade grupper (så som kvinnor) att organisera sig på ett mindre resurskrävande sätt, dels ger de nya verktyg både för repressiva regimer som har i sitt intresse att övervaka, kontrollera och skrämma medborgarna och oppositionella samt för enskilda individer att trakassera de kandidater som upplevs som normbrytande eller på andra sätt besvärliga.Detta projekt syftar till att undersöka hur sociala medier verkar möjliggörande och hindrande för politiska kandidater i repressiva stater, med specifikt fokus på vilka könade konsekvenser detta kan få. Studien bygger vidare på tidigare forskning som visat på att sociala medier har erbjudit repressiva regimer ett nytt och effektivt verktyg för att tysta och skrämma oppositionspolitiker, men också hur tidigare forskning visat på hur kvinnor i repressiva stater använt sig av sociala medier för effektiv mobilisering av frågor som tidigare setts tillhöra den privata sfären. I vilken grad denna repression drabbar kvinnor och män olika, om det i högre utsträckning drabbar (kvinnliga) oppositionella kandidater än regimvänliga (kvinnor), kommer att undersökas med hjälp av en fallstudie av nästkommande nationella val i Kambodja, vilket äger rum i juni 2018. Kambodja är ett land som alltsedan det första nationella valet 1993 har varit särskilt drabbat av valrelaterat våld, och färska studier har också visat på att en stor del av detta valrelaterade våld sker genom sociala medier.

I studien kommer en kombination av kvantitativa och kvalitativa metoder att användas för att undersöka om och hur Facebook har använts av både individer och regimen i Kambodja för att motverka och hindra kvinnor och oppositionella från att delta i politiken, men håller också öppet för att sociala medier på olika sätt kan verka möjliggörande för desamma.

This project will merge new aid data identifying where and when aid programs took place along with geographically located outcome data to investigate the effectiveness of aid. The project contains three subsections: 1) We will use location specific aid data to evaluate whether sub-national aid allocations are optimal from a poverty reduction perspective. This will highlight which donors and aid types reach the poorest segment of the population within recipient countries. 2) We will use the same data to study the effectiveness of aid projects by aid type, donor and sub-national locality, with a focus on aid promoting health, education and institution building (both formal and informal). As such, this section will identify what aid programs work, where and when, generating policy recommendations for future aid projects. 3) We will evaluate the unintended impacts of aid programmes on behavior and living conditions using both location specific aid data and detailed field studies. Aid programmes may have unintended consequences that are often not measured resulting in positive or negative spillovers. These spillovers may explain why some programs are more effective than others. Thus, this project will improve our understanding of aid effectiveness which, in turn, provides the foundations to reduce poverty and achieve the SDGs. Trots framsteg på många fronter kvarstår enorma skillnader i levnadsstandard mellan världens fattiga och rika länder. För att bemöta de globala samhällsutmaningarna har världens länder antagit en uppsättning mål för hållbar utveckling (SDGs). De 17 målen, som delats upp i 169 delmål, täcker en lång rad ekonomiska, sociala och miljörelaterade frågor, och ska, med gemensamma insatser från det internationella samfundet, uppnås till år 2030. Behovet av utvecklingspolicy som hjälper utvecklingsländer att uppnå de specifika målsättningarna skapar efterfrågan på specifik, men samtidigt generaliserbar, forskning om biståndets effektivitet.       Syftet med projektet är att studera biståndseffektivitet i ett disaggregerat, jämförande perspektiv, med fokus på systematisk variation mellan biståndssektorer, givare och regioner inom länder. Med tanke på hållbarhetsmålen och det ökade behovet av mål-specifik utvärdering av biståndets effekter är detta fokus centralt från ett policyperspektiv.       Projektet fyller dessutom en viktig lucka i den akademiska litteraturen om biståndets effektivitet. Frågan om huruvida bistånd bidrar till ekonomisk utveckling, och på vilket sätt det i så fall ska organiseras för att vara mest effektivt, är kontroversiell. Det har under lång tid funnits en tydlig uppdelning mellan makro- och mikrostudier på området, dvs. studier som undersöker sambandet mellan samlade biståndsflöden och olika utfall på landnivå, och studier som undersöker effekten av enskilda biståndsprojekt. Medan de tidigare har problem att statistiskt fastslå kausala samband har de senare, som ibland baseras på väldesignade randomiserade insatser, viktiga begränsningar i fråga om generaliserbarhet.       Det här projektet berör ’den saknade mitten’ i litteraturen om biståndseffektivitet. För att systematiskt studera variation mellan biståndssektorer, givare och regioner inom länder i fråga om biståndets effektivitet kommer vi använda oss av ’Geospacial Impact Evaluation’ (GIE), en ny metod som utnyttjar geokodad bistånds- och utfallsdata på lokal (subnationell) nivå för att utvärdera effekten av biståndsprojekt. Genom att geografiskt matcha information om var biståndsprojekt genomförs med geokodad surveydata på individ- eller hushållsnivå kan man systematiskt studera lokala effekter av biståndsprojekt på bred front, över flera länder. Istället för att mäta effekten av det samlade biståndsflödet till ett land, eller effekten av ett enskilt projekt, kan man med denna metod exempelvis studera om hälsoprojekt har haft positiva effekter på relevanta hälsoutfall i berörda områden, såväl som indirekta effekter på andra utfall (såsom fattigdom).       Det senare är en viktig poäng. När vi studerar biståndets effektivitet kommer vi inte bara ta hänsyn till huruvida ett projekt uppfyller dess uttryckliga mål, utan också beröra indirekta, oavsiktliga, effekter som kan vara positiva såväl som negativa.

This period carries the burden of an annual 300,000 maternal deaths, 2,6 million stillbirths, and 4 million infant deaths. Furthermore, long-term consequences for the surviving but affected newborns include impaired cognitive development and increased risk of future chronic diseases. The period from onset of pregnancy to two years of age thus provides a unique window of opportunity to establish a solid foundation for survival, health, growth, and cognitive development.Low-income countries that were successful in the past few decades to expand primary health services and reduce child mortality now face new challenges. To further increase the chances for children to survive and thrive there is a need for communities to engage in the health and welfare of the mother-and-child dyad and primary health services to respond to these needs with quality services. There is well-researched evidence that the use of facilitated participatory groups is an effective social innovation but no large scale-up of this promising innovation has so far taken place.The current application aims to support the establishment of the multi-disciplinary SUSTAIN network that aim to develop and test social innovations across diverse health system settings to improve the health and survival during the first 1,000 days of life. Tiden kring födelsen, den perinatala perioden, är den tid i livet som årligen omfattar 300,000 mödradödsfall, 2,6 miljoner dödfödda barn och 2,6 miljoner nyfödda, som dör under den första levnadsmånaden. Vidare är de första 1000 dagarna av livet, före och efter födseln, den period med de mest djupgående konsekvenserna för hälsa på kort och lång sikt. Perioden från början av graviditeten till två års ålder ger således en unik möjlighet att skapa en solid grund för överlevnad, hälsa, tillväxt och kognitiv utveckling.Det finns idag en gedigen kunskap om att så kallade faciliterade grupper, som arbetar tillsammans är en effektiv social innovation för att framgångsrikt identifieraoch agera mot lokala problem för förbättrad perinatal hälsa och överlevnad. Trots att metoden förespråkas av WHO har ingen storskalig implementering prövats. Det finns heller ingen praktisk vägledning om hur denna sociala innovationen ska implementeras eller vilka effekter som kan förväntas. Om den sociala innovationen implementeras eftertänksamt har den en stor kapacitet att stärka hälsosystemets förmåga till förbättringsarbete och stärka dess förmåga till ansvarsfull styrning. Det föreslagna nätverket SUSTAIN (Scaling Up Survive and Thrive Action Interventions) avser att utveckla, söka finansiering för och implementera den en denna sociala innovation i stor skala i Etiopien och Rwanda. Under den treårsperiod vi söker finansiering för avser vi fortsatt stärka vår kompetens och gemensamma kunskapsbank för att öka möjligheterna för att genomföra ett transdiciplinärt projekt genom återkommande workshops på föreslagna teman.

This period carries the burden of an annual 300,000 maternal deaths, 2,6 million stillbirths, and 4 million infant deaths. Furthermore, long-term consequences for the surviving but affected newborns include impaired cognitive development and increased risk of future chronic diseases. The period from onset of pregnancy to two years of age thus provides a unique window of opportunity to establish a solid foundation for survival, health, growth, and cognitive development.Low-income countries that were successful in the past few decades to expand primary health services and reduce child mortality now face new challenges. To further increase the chances for children to survive and thrive there is a need for communities to engage in the health and welfare of the mother-and-child dyad and primary health services to respond to these needs with quality services. There is well-researched evidence that the use of facilitated participatory groups is an effective social innovation but no large scale-up of this promising innovation has so far taken place.The current application aims to support the establishment of the multi-disciplinary SUSTAIN network that aim to develop and test social innovations across diverse health system settings to improve the health and survival during the first 1,000 days of life. Tiden kring födelsen, den perinatala perioden, är den tid i livet som årligen omfattar 300,000 mödradödsfall, 2,6 miljoner dödfödda barn och 2,6 miljoner nyfödda, som dör under den första levnadsmånaden. Vidare är de första 1000 dagarna av livet, före och efter födseln, den period med de mest djupgående konsekvenserna för hälsa på kort och lång sikt. Perioden från början av graviditeten till två års ålder ger således en unik möjlighet att skapa en solid grund för överlevnad, hälsa, tillväxt och kognitiv utveckling.Det finns idag en gedigen kunskap om att så kallade faciliterade grupper, som arbetar tillsammans är en effektiv social innovation för att framgångsrikt identifieraoch agera mot lokala problem för förbättrad perinatal hälsa och överlevnad. Trots att metoden förespråkas av WHO har ingen storskalig implementering prövats. Det finns heller ingen praktisk vägledning om hur denna sociala innovationen ska implementeras eller vilka effekter som kan förväntas. Om den sociala innovationen implementeras eftertänksamt har den en stor kapacitet att stärka hälsosystemets förmåga till förbättringsarbete och stärka dess förmåga till ansvarsfull styrning. Det föreslagna nätverket SUSTAIN (Scaling Up Survive and Thrive Action Interventions) avser att utveckla, söka finansiering för och implementera den en denna sociala innovation i stor skala i Etiopien och Rwanda. Under den treårsperiod vi söker finansiering för avser vi fortsatt stärka vår kompetens och gemensamma kunskapsbank för att öka möjligheterna för att genomföra ett transdiciplinärt projekt genom återkommande workshops på föreslagna teman. Den planerade SUSTAIN innovationen syftar till att dokumentera och utvärdera hälsoutfall, kostnad och process samt att producera riktlinjer och material för att använda metoden även i andra länder.

Brist på rent vatten är ett globalt problem som främst drabbar världens fattiga. Ökad återanvändning av avloppsvatten, exempelvis för bevattning i jordbruk, har flera fördelar och skulle kunna avhjälpa problemet. Detta forskningsprojekt handlar om återanvändning av avloppsvatten och då framför allt i länder med allvarlig vattenbrist. Utifrån ett mångvetenskapligt perspektiv försöker vi dels tackla de utmaningar som finns, och dels identifiera de möjligheter som ett ökat återbruk skulle kunna föra med sig. Sydafrika och Marocko är de två länder med vattenbrist som specifikt studeras. För det första är avloppsvatten en relativt pålitlig vattenkälla eftersom tillgången inte påverkas nämnvärt av torka och andra klimatförhållanden. För det andra innehåller avloppsvatten användbara material, såsom organiskt kol, energi och näringsämnen, likt kväve och fosfor. Samtidigt finns en hel del risker kopplade till återanvändning av avloppsvatten. En är att föroreningar kan ansamlas i de grödor som odlas och därefter komma in i både människor och djur via föda med negativa hälsoeffekter som följd. Föroreningarna kan vara såväl människoskapade som naturliga, och inkluderar exempelvis läkemedel, industrikemikalier, bekämpningsmedel och metaller. Sådana substanser kan vara svåra att avskilja och även med modern avloppsreningsteknik passerar vissa kemikalier igenom opåverkade. Det här är särskilt allvarligt för föreningar som är utvecklade för att ha en biologisk effekt, t.ex. antibiotika och biocider.Vattenbrist drabbar alla kontinenter och omkring 40 procent av världens befolkning påverkas av problemet. Det övergripande målet med projektet är att bidra till utvecklingen av en effektiv avloppsreningsmetodik med låg miljöpåverkan och som innebär ett hållbart nyttjande av lokala resurser. Genom att rena avloppsvatten från föroreningar gör man det möjligt att återanvända detta vatten inom olika användningsområden. Vi kommer att studera hur enkla kolmaterial framställda från jordbruksrestprodukter kan förbättras för att skapa adsorbentmaterial som klarar av att rena bort många olika typer av föroreningar med olika egenskaper, och studera hur de sedan kan användas i småskaliga avloppsreningssystem (så kallade DEWATS-anläggningar). Det är också viktigt att utveckla metoder för hur dessa kolmaterial sedan ska tas om hand efter att de använts som adsorbenter. Ofta antas att de bara kan eldas upp och att problemet då skulle vara ur världen, men det är mycket viktigt att undersöka hur detta ska göras på bästa sätt, och säkerställa att inte farliga föreningar frigörs eller bildas vid förbränningen. I det här projektet kommer vi att använda enkla pyrolysugnar där använda adsorbenter används som bränsle för att göra nya koladsorbenter av jordbruksrester, och studera hur olika parametrar i förbränningsprocessen kan justeras för att uppnå en så effektiv nedbrytning som möjligt av föroreningarna i kolen. Utöver uppgiften att utveckla och validera effektiva behandlingstekniker och processer för vattenrening och omhändertagande av adsorbenterna finns det dessutom en stor samhällelig utmaning att ta i beaktande när det gäller hur återanvändning av avloppsvatten. Den handlar om beslutsfattares och allmänhetens negativa attityder till återanvändning av renat avloppsvatten och är en kritisk faktor att förstå och hantera för att överhuvudtaget kunna implementera de vattenbehandlingstekniker som utvecklas på ett hållbart sätt. I projektet kommer vi därför att analysera hur återanvändning av avloppsvatten kommuniceras i samhället, dels i policy och dels i medier och detta med vetskap att kommunikation kring vatten ser olika ut i olika kulturer och i olika typer av sammanhang. Vi kommer även att undersöka beslutsfattares och allmänhetens attityder till bruket av återvunnet vatten och därtill hörande politik, eftersom individers attityder har en stor påverkan på acceptansen.Denna forskning är viktig för att förebygga risker för hälsa och miljö i samband med användning av avloppsvatten i länder med svår vattenbrist, särskilt för många av världens minst utvecklade länder.

Vattenbuffeln (Bubalus bubalis) är det viktigaste mjölkdjuret i Södra Asien. Förutom mjölk ger också vattenbuffeln kött, samt är dessutom ett viktigt dragdjur. Vattenbuffeln anses ha en lägre klimatpåverkan och vara ett mer miljövänligt mjölkdjur jämfört med mjölkkor. Det beror delvis på att vattenbuffeln är ett tåligare och mer långlivat djur som producerar kalvar och mjölk långt upp i åldrarna. Dessutom kan vattenbuffeln levapå foder av sämre kvalitet än mjölkkor och den tål också salthaltigt vatten bättre än många andra djurslag. En övergång från mjölkor till vattenbufflar skulle därför vara ett önskvärt scenarion för det klimatusatta Bangladesh. Vattenbuffeln är ett viktigt djurslag för många fattiga småjordbrukare i Asien då den ger många möjligheter till utkomst, särskilt för kvinnor som ofta är de som sköter och mjölkar vattenbufflarna. Tyvärr (och lite obegripligt) är vattenbuffeln ganska ovanlig i Bangladesh trots att det låglänta landet borde vara mycket lämpat för buffelhållning. På senare tid har dock intresset ökat. Flera privata aktörer har importerat vattenbuffel från grannländer för att satsa på mjölkproduktion och de har också stöd av regeringen. Men, med ökat antal vattenbufflar i Bangladesh ökar också risken för sjuklighet som kan drabba både djur och människor. Mjölken är en viktig smittokälla då den ofta förtärs opastöriserad. Sjukdomar som tuberkulos och brucellos (kastningssjuka, maltafeber) är vanliga i Bangladesh liksom sannolikt även andra mjölkburna bakterier. Generellt dålig mjölkhygien längs mjölkkedjan innebär också en hälsorisk. En intensifiering av mjölkproduktionen leder också till ökade risker för juverinflammation som är det mjölkproducerande djurets viktigaste sjukdom. Juverinflammation ger sänkt mjölkproduktion, sämre mjölkkvalitet och livsmedelssäkerhet, ökade kostnader för bonden samt en ökad risk för antibiotikaresistenta bakterier då juverinflammation oftast behandlas med antibiotika. Kunskapen om risker längs mjölkkedjan i den bangladeshiska vattenbuffelnäringen är mycket bristfällig och syftena med denna studie är:Studera mjölkkedjan hos vattenbuffel, från juver till konsument, med fokus på juverhälsa, mjölkhantering och mjölkproduktion.  Identifiera risk- och friskfaktorer för att uppnå bättre mjölkkvalitet och livsmedelssäkerhet.Studera förekomst av livsmedelsburna bakterier i buffelmjölk, såsom brucella and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Identifiera åtgärder för att kontrollera smitta.Modellera effekten av en övergång från en mjölkkobaserad mjölkkedja till en buffelbaserad dito. Formge och tillämpa en övergångsstrategi mot en buffelmjölkkedja genom att samla in synpunkter från flera intressenter samt data från ovanstående delstudier.Det övergripande målet med denna studie är en uthållig och ekonomiskt lönsam vattenbuffelmjölkkedja som producerar säker mjölk som kommer från friska djur. Projektet kommer att genomföras som ett fyraårigt doktorandprojekt där en bengalisk doktorand kommer att rekryteras och registreras vid Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet (SLU). Flera masterstudenter från Bangladesh kommer också att ingå i projektet, liksom även studenter från Europa. Fältstudien kommer att genomföras i Bangladesh på vattenbuffelgårdar i flera olika områden. Mjölken kommer att provtas på flera olika nivåer längs mjölkkedjan: Från djur/juver, från tankmjölk på gård och mer konsumentnära på mejerier och marknader. Metodik som kommer ingå är traditionell bakteriologisk odling, molekylära metoder och serologi (analys av antikroppar). Vi avser utföra de flesta analyser på plats i Bangladesh, men det finns möjlighet till utökade analyser hos våra samarbetspartners runt om i Europa. Vidare kommer riskfaktorer för dålig juverhälsa, förekomst av specifika infektioner samt dålig mjölkhygien att undersökas.

Vattenbuffeln (Bubalus bubalis) är det viktigaste mjölkdjuret i Södra Asien. Förutom mjölk ger också vattenbuffeln kött, samt är dessutom ett viktigt dragdjur. Vattenbuffeln anses ha en lägre klimatpåverkan och vara ett mer miljövänligt mjölkdjur jämfört med mjölkkor. Det beror delvis på att vattenbuffeln är ett tåligare och mer långlivat djur som producerar kalvar och mjölk långt upp i åldrarna. Dessutom kan vattenbuffeln levapå foder av sämre kvalitet än mjölkkor och den tål också salthaltigt vatten bättre än många andra djurslag. En övergång från mjölkor till vattenbufflar skulle därför vara ett önskvärt scenarion för det klimatusatta Bangladesh. Vattenbuffeln är ett viktigt djurslag för många fattiga småjordbrukare i Asien då den ger många möjligheter till utkomst, särskilt för kvinnor som ofta är de som sköter och mjölkar vattenbufflarna. Tyvärr (och lite obegripligt) är vattenbuffeln ganska ovanlig i Bangladesh trots att det låglänta landet borde vara mycket lämpat för buffelhållning. På senare tid har dock intresset ökat. Flera privata aktörer har importerat vattenbuffel från grannländer för att satsa på mjölkproduktion och de har också stöd av regeringen. Men, med ökat antal vattenbufflar i Bangladesh ökar också risken för sjuklighet som kan drabba både djur och människor. Mjölken är en viktig smittokälla då den ofta förtärs opastöriserad. Sjukdomar som tuberkulos och brucellos (kastningssjuka, maltafeber) är vanliga i Bangladesh liksom sannolikt även andra mjölkburna bakterier. Generellt dålig mjölkhygien längs mjölkkedjan innebär också en hälsorisk. En intensifiering av mjölkproduktionen leder också till ökade risker för juverinflammation som är det mjölkproducerande djurets viktigaste sjukdom. Juverinflammation ger sänkt mjölkproduktion, sämre mjölkkvalitet och livsmedelssäkerhet, ökade kostnader för bonden samt en ökad risk för antibiotikaresistenta bakterier då juverinflammation oftast behandlas med antibiotika. Kunskapen om risker längs mjölkkedjan i den bangladeshiska vattenbuffelnäringen är mycket bristfällig och syftena med denna studie är:Studera mjölkkedjan hos vattenbuffel, från juver till konsument, med fokus på juverhälsa, mjölkhantering och mjölkproduktion.  Identifiera risk- och friskfaktorer för att uppnå bättre mjölkkvalitet och livsmedelssäkerhet.Studera förekomst av livsmedelsburna bakterier i buffelmjölk, såsom brucella and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Identifiera åtgärder för att kontrollera smitta.Modellera effekten av en övergång från en mjölkkobaserad mjölkkedja till en buffelbaserad dito. Formge och tillämpa en övergångsstrategi mot en buffelmjölkkedja genom att samla in synpunkter från flera intressenter samt data från ovanstående delstudier.Det övergripande målet med denna studie är en uthållig och ekonomiskt lönsam vattenbuffelmjölkkedja som producerar säker mjölk som kommer från friska djur. Projektet kommer att genomföras som ett fyraårigt doktorandprojekt där en bengalisk doktorand kommer att rekryteras och registreras vid Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet (SLU). Flera masterstudenter från Bangladesh kommer också att ingå i projektet, liksom även studenter från Europa. Fältstudien kommer att genomföras i Bangladesh på vattenbuffelgårdar i flera olika områden.

Vi avser utföra de flesta analyser på plats i Bangladesh, men det finns möjlighet till utökade analyser hos våra samarbetspartners runt om i Europa. Vidare kommer riskfaktorer för dålig juverhälsa, förekomst av specifika infektioner samt dålig mjölkhygien att undersökas.

Despite the growing research in this field, there is a lack of standardized definitions and methods, which constitutes a challenge in comparing and relating findings across studies. Thus, we will focus on identifying methodological challenges, proposing new and improved methodologies, testing these through a small pilot project, and based on the results, develop joint research applications for large-scale research. Guiding research questions are: what are the challenges and limitations in research methodologies, how can tools and processes be strengthened to better ensure that survivors feel safe and secure about reporting conflict-related sexual violence, and how can the improved tools and processes be used to access hard-to-reach groups? During year 1 we will arrange joint workshops/conferences, and design and implement the pilot study at a refugee camp. During year 2 we will assess the results from the pilot study, disseminate these through workshops/conferences at all 3 locations, and develop joint applications. The collaboration will yield increased knowledge and data regarding methodological research challenges related to conflict-related sexual violence. Bakgrund: Konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld omfattar olika typer av sexuellt våld som sker i samband med en konflikt. Medan formerna och utbredningen skiftar utgör detta våld ett allvarligt hot mot fattigdomsbekämpning och en hållbar utveckling. Forskning visar att mellan 4 och 22 % av kvinnor och flickor inom konfliktområden har drabbats av olika former av sexuellt våld. Det framkommer även att män och pojkar drabbas, troligen till mindre utsträckning än kvinnor och flickor, men det är ännu oklart i vilken utsträckning och vilka former dessa övergrepp tar. Konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld har påverkan på människors hälsa, ökar risken för omfattande psykologisk skada, samt påverkan på överlevarnas sexuella och reproduktiva hälsa. Medan forskningen de senaste 20 åren har uppmärksammat det sexuella våldet i konflikter genom olika studier finns betydande kunskapsluckor inom området. Ett problem kopplat till detta är att rapporteringen kring övergreppen inte är fullständig på grund av överlevarnas rädsla och skam och det stigma som råder kring sexuellt våld. Detta begränsar kunskapen gällande bestämningsfaktorer, former, utbredning och utfall kring det sexuella våldet. Kunskap som viktig för att bidra till, och förbättra, insatser som syftar till att hjälpa de drabbade och förhindra framtida övergrepp och minska lidande.Idé och syfte: Det övergripande syftet är att utveckla ett långsiktigt partnerskap mellan Lunds universitet, Gulu University i Uganda och University of Juba i Sydsudan för att stärka forskningskapaciteten kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld, och därmed bidra till en förbättrad kunskapsbas som kan understödja åtgärder mot sexuellt våld. Fokus ligger på att identifiera metodologiska utmaningar relaterat till att samla in och analysera data kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld, samt att utveckla nya och förbättrade metoder för att adressera underrapportering av sexuellt våld som kan bidra till en ökad insyn i bestämningsfaktorer, former, utbredning och utfall. Vi planerar att genomföra en mindre pilotstudie på ett flyktingläger i norra Uganda för att testa de nya metoderna som vi identifierat. Resultaten kommer att ligga till grund för en gemensam ansökan för att bedriva mer omfattande forskningsstudier kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld i regionen. Eftersom samarbetet sätter metodologier i centrum kan det på längre sikt bidra till en utveckling av forskningsområdet. Detta kan ge en möjlighet för lokala såväl som internationella forskare att få fördjupad kunskap i hur vissa av de existerande utmaningarna kan adresseras och därmed skapa möjligheter för att vidareutveckla kunskapsbasen som ligger till grund för program och interventioner.

Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Uganda Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2018-03613_1-1 Sweden The overall objective is to develop a long-term partnership between Lund University (Sweden), Gulu University (Uganda) and University of Juba (South Sudan) to strengthen research capacity on conflict-related sexual violence, and thereby contribute to an improved knowledge-base to inform the response. Despite the growing research in this field, there is a lack of standardized definitions and methods, which constitutes a challenge in comparing and relating findings across studies. Thus, we will focus on identifying methodological challenges, proposing new and improved methodologies, testing these through a small pilot project, and based on the results, develop joint research applications for large-scale research. Guiding research questions are: what are the challenges and limitations in research methodologies, how can tools and processes be strengthened to better ensure that survivors feel safe and secure about reporting conflict-related sexual violence, and how can the improved tools and processes be used to access hard-to-reach groups? During year 1 we will arrange joint workshops/conferences, and design and implement the pilot study at a refugee camp. During year 2 we will assess the results from the pilot study, disseminate these through workshops/conferences at all 3 locations, and develop joint applications. The collaboration will yield increased knowledge and data regarding methodological research challenges related to conflict-related sexual violence. Bakgrund: Konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld omfattar olika typer av sexuellt våld som sker i samband med en konflikt. Medan formerna och utbredningen skiftar utgör detta våld ett allvarligt hot mot fattigdomsbekämpning och en hållbar utveckling. Forskning visar att mellan 4 och 22 % av kvinnor och flickor inom konfliktområden har drabbats av olika former av sexuellt våld. Det framkommer även att män och pojkar drabbas, troligen till mindre utsträckning än kvinnor och flickor, men det är ännu oklart i vilken utsträckning och vilka former dessa övergrepp tar. Konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld har påverkan på människors hälsa, ökar risken för omfattande psykologisk skada, samt påverkan på överlevarnas sexuella och reproduktiva hälsa. Medan forskningen de senaste 20 åren har uppmärksammat det sexuella våldet i konflikter genom olika studier finns betydande kunskapsluckor inom området. Ett problem kopplat till detta är att rapporteringen kring övergreppen inte är fullständig på grund av överlevarnas rädsla och skam och det stigma som råder kring sexuellt våld. Detta begränsar kunskapen gällande bestämningsfaktorer, former, utbredning och utfall kring det sexuella våldet. Kunskap som viktig för att bidra till, och förbättra, insatser som syftar till att hjälpa de drabbade och förhindra framtida övergrepp och minska lidande.Idé och syfte: Det övergripande syftet är att utveckla ett långsiktigt partnerskap mellan Lunds universitet, Gulu University i Uganda och University of Juba i Sydsudan för att stärka forskningskapaciteten kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld, och därmed bidra till en förbättrad kunskapsbas som kan understödja åtgärder mot sexuellt våld. Fokus ligger på att identifiera metodologiska utmaningar relaterat till att samla in och analysera data kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld, samt att utveckla nya och förbättrade metoder för att adressera underrapportering av sexuellt våld som kan bidra till en ökad insyn i bestämningsfaktorer, former, utbredning och utfall. Vi planerar att genomföra en mindre pilotstudie på ett flyktingläger i norra Uganda för att testa de nya metoderna som vi identifierat. Resultaten kommer att ligga till grund för en gemensam ansökan för att bedriva mer omfattande forskningsstudier kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld i regionen. Eftersom samarbetet sätter metodologier i centrum kan det på längre sikt bidra till en utveckling av forskningsområdet. Detta kan ge en möjlighet för lokala såväl som internationella forskare att få fördjupad kunskap i hur vissa av de existerande utmaningarna kan adresseras och därmed skapa möjligheter för att vidareutveckla kunskapsbasen som ligger till grund för program och interventioner. Vidare kan etableringen av nätverket mellan universiteten och övriga aktörer inom området agera som en viktig språngbräda för forskare som står i begrepp att utföra studier inom området. Projektet har en nära anknytning till de globala målen för en hållbar utveckling i den mån att det bidrar till det förebyggande arbetet kring fattigdomsbekämpning.

Since the emergence of H5N1 in 1999, this virus and later progeny viruses (such as H5N6, H5N8) have become endemic in parts of Asia, with  outbreaks in poultry and few, but highly lethal, infections in humans. Highly pathogenic viruses are related to low pathogenic viruses that circulate naturally among wild waterfowl, and it is evident that highly pathogenic viruses can be maintained in the wild bird reservoir. And important question to ask is to which extent the interface between migratory waterfowl and poultry contributes to disease persistence. We propose to combine movement ecology of waterfowl with disease epidemiology of avian influenza viruses to investigate transmission of a highly contagious and lethal poultry disease at the wildlife/domestic animal interface in rural areas of Bangladesh. Poultry, both ducks and chickens, is an essential product in agriculture in Bangladesh, for subsistence farmers and for the expanding poultry industry. Outbreaks are devastating for individual farmers, but also has ramifications for trade. We will use the development in animal tracking to generate individual-based movement data of birds, ranging from smaller movements during non-breeding times to long distance migrations. The resulting tracks will inform spatial-epidemiological models to quantify persistence/transmission of avian influenza viruses at regional and flyway scales. Under de senaste tjugo åren har fågelinfluensa blivit ett allt större problem för fjäderfäindustrin, i synnerhet i Asien. Sjukdomen orsakas av ett högpatogent H5-virus, som existerar i olika varianter, exempelvis H5N1, H5N2, H5N6 och H5N8. Ursprungsviruset är H5N1 vilket sedan via rekombination med andra influensavirus givit upphov till nya varianter. Viruset återfinns både hos vilda och tama fåglar och har en varierad sjukdomsbild. Hos höns är förloppet väldigt hastigt och förenat med nästintill 100% dödlighet, medan samma virus kan ge mild till asymptomatisk sjukdom hos vilda och tama änder. Det finns flera orsaker till dessa skillnader, dels hur immunförsvaret reagerar vid smitta men också samspelet med milda så kallade lågpatogena influensavirus som cirkulerar naturligt bland vilda änder. I delar av Asien är tamänder en betydande del av ekonomin, ofta producerade i risodlingsbygd. Våra studier kommer att bedrivas i Bangladesh, ett utvecklingsland präglat av rika vattenmiljöer, risodling och fjäderfäproduktion. Förutom den inhemska faunan och produktionen är Bangladesh också ett viktigt övervintringsområde för vilda änder som häckar i Ryssland. Detta skapar ett epidemiologiskt scenario där vilda änder, tama änder och fjäderfä samexisterar och där kontaktytan dem emellan är stark. Vi kommer att samarbeta med forskare i Bangladesh och förse ett stort antal änder med den absolut senaste tekniken för att följa djurs rörelser. Dessa sändare tar GPS-koordinater (och annan typ av rörelsedata) och använder GSM-nätet för att sända data till en databas vilket gör att man följa individers naturliga rörelser över tid. De två frågor vi vill besvara är (1) hur överlappet mellan tama och vilda fåglar ser ut och hur det bidrar till sjukdomsrisk, och (2) hur långväga flyttning kan bidra med introduktion av virus till Bangladesh. Projektet knyter an till ett större projekt där vi arbetar med samma teknik i Sydkorea och Europa. En målsättning för det större projektet är att förstå hur flyttfågelrörelser kan sprida virus över hela den euroasiatiska kontinenten.

Dominant theories fail to explain the contradictory trends regarding how developing states respond to such challenges. In some policy fields, regional cooperation is weak despite strong norms and institutions promoting regional solutions, whereas in others, it is strong although no substantial norms or institutions support it. We claim that the key to explaining this puzzle lies in the understandings of national sovereignty that the involved states develop in specific policy fields. Our main proposition is that the level of cooperation on a given transboundary policy challenge depends on whether states redefine and transform their national sovereignty in a way that sees regional cooperation as enhancing rather than constraining state autonomy. Focusing on transboundary rivers and communicable diseases, the project analyzes and compares the national sovereignty understandings of states in Africa and Southeast Asia, and how they relate to ideas about regional cooperation. The innovative comparative case study design, which includes comparison across both policy fields and regions, makes robust theory building possible. The project enhances our understanding of the conditions for regional cooperation in the Global South, and questions Western-centric and Eurocentric ideas about the link between national sovereignty and regional cooperation. Detta projekt söker förklara olika nivåer av regionalt samarbete bland utvecklingsländer för att hantera gränsöverskridande politiska utmaningar. Existerande forskning erbjuder inga övertygande förklaringar till varför utvecklingsländer lyckas samarbeta regionalt för att hantera sådana gränsöverskridande utmaningar inom vissa politikområden och under vissa omständigheter men inte i andra. På vissa politikområden är det regionala samarbetet svagt trots starka normer och institutioner som främjar regionala och kollektiva lösningar, medan samarbetet är starkt i andra politikområden, trots en avsaknad av starka normer och regionala institutioner som kan stödja det. Vi hävdar att nyckeln till förklaringen ligger i en fördjupad förståelse av nationell suveränitet. En bättre förståelse av nationell suveränitet är av särdeles stor betydelse eftersom många forskare såväl som biståndsgivare och andra praktiker alltmer agerar som om den nationella suveräniteten mest vore en gammalmodig princip som närmast spelat ut sin roll eller bara är till hinder för internationellt och regionalt samarbete. Även om en hel del forskare fortfarande inkluderar nationell suveränitet i sina analyser står det helt klart att de flesta teorier baseras på en enkelspårig (och ofta eurocentrisk) syn på hur nationell suveränitet hänger ihop med regionalt samarbete.Detta forskningsprojekt undersöker i vilken utsträckning samarbetsnivån inom ett visst politikområde beror på huruvida staterna och dess företrädare omdefinierar och omvandlar den nationella suveräniteten på ett sätt som gör att det regionala samarbete anses förbättra snarare än begränsa statens självständighet och utvecklingspotential.Projektet fokuserar specifikt på hur uppfattningar om nationell suveränitet påverkar regionalt samarbete och styrning av gränsöverskridande floder och hanteringen av smittsamma sjukdomar i Afrika och Sydostasien. Vi använder oss av flera kompletterande kvalitativa metoder och typer av material, såväl som strategiskt kvantitativt material. Den jämförande fallstudieutformningen, som alltså bygger på en systematisk jämförelse av två politikområden och två regioner, gör det möjligt att dra både teoretiska och empiriska slutsatser. På så sätt förbättrar alltså projektet vår förståelse för villkoren för framgångsrikt regionalt samarbete bland utvecklingsländer. Den jämförande fallstudiedesignen gör att resultaten kommer vara av relevans bortom de specifika politikområdena och regionerna.Projektet har även viktiga implikationer för beslutsfattande, policy och biståndspolitik. Projektet är upplagt för spridning av forskningsresultat till olika beslutsfattare och praktiker. Tack vare tidigare forskningsprojekt med starka policykomponenter har de två forskarna i projektet redan etablerade kontaktnät som möjliggör fördjupad dialog med  praktiker och beslutsfattare. Projektet syftar till att sprida resultat och skapa dialog med politiska eliter och civilsamhällesaktörer på nationell nivå, med internationella och regionala organisationer såväl som med olika biståndsaktörer. Inte minst europeiska biståndsgivare investerar ofantligt stora resurser för att främja regionalt samarbete i Afrika såväl som i Asien, och projektet är strukturerat för att i största möjliga utsträckning söka dialog och diskussion med framförallt de viktigaste europeiska biståndsgivarna — såsom EU, Tyskland, Sverige, Norge, Danmark, Storbritannien, Nederländerna, Belgien.

Dominant theories fail to explain the contradictory trends regarding how developing states respond to such challenges. In some policy fields, regional cooperation is weak despite strong norms and institutions promoting regional solutions, whereas in others, it is strong although no substantial norms or institutions support it. We claim that the key to explaining this puzzle lies in the understandings of national sovereignty that the involved states develop in specific policy fields. Our main proposition is that the level of cooperation on a given transboundary policy challenge depends on whether states redefine and transform their national sovereignty in a way that sees regional cooperation as enhancing rather than constraining state autonomy. Focusing on transboundary rivers and communicable diseases, the project analyzes and compares the national sovereignty understandings of states in Africa and Southeast Asia, and how they relate to ideas about regional cooperation. The innovative comparative case study design, which includes comparison across both policy fields and regions, makes robust theory building possible. The project enhances our understanding of the conditions for regional cooperation in the Global South, and questions Western-centric and Eurocentric ideas about the link between national sovereignty and regional cooperation. Detta projekt söker förklara olika nivåer av regionalt samarbete bland utvecklingsländer för att hantera gränsöverskridande politiska utmaningar. Existerande forskning erbjuder inga övertygande förklaringar till varför utvecklingsländer lyckas samarbeta regionalt för att hantera sådana gränsöverskridande utmaningar inom vissa politikområden och under vissa omständigheter men inte i andra. På vissa politikområden är det regionala samarbetet svagt trots starka normer och institutioner som främjar regionala och kollektiva lösningar, medan samarbetet är starkt i andra politikområden, trots en avsaknad av starka normer och regionala institutioner som kan stödja det. Vi hävdar att nyckeln till förklaringen ligger i en fördjupad förståelse av nationell suveränitet. En bättre förståelse av nationell suveränitet är av särdeles stor betydelse eftersom många forskare såväl som biståndsgivare och andra praktiker alltmer agerar som om den nationella suveräniteten mest vore en gammalmodig princip som närmast spelat ut sin roll eller bara är till hinder för internationellt och regionalt samarbete. Även om en hel del forskare fortfarande inkluderar nationell suveränitet i sina analyser står det helt klart att de flesta teorier baseras på en enkelspårig (och ofta eurocentrisk) syn på hur nationell suveränitet hänger ihop med regionalt samarbete.Detta forskningsprojekt undersöker i vilken utsträckning samarbetsnivån inom ett visst politikområde beror på huruvida staterna och dess företrädare omdefinierar och omvandlar den nationella suveräniteten på ett sätt som gör att det regionala samarbete anses förbättra snarare än begränsa statens självständighet och utvecklingspotential.Projektet fokuserar specifikt på hur uppfattningar om nationell suveränitet påverkar regionalt samarbete och styrning av gränsöverskridande floder och hanteringen av smittsamma sjukdomar i Afrika och Sydostasien. Vi använder oss av flera kompletterande kvalitativa metoder och typer av material, såväl som strategiskt kvantitativt material. Den jämförande fallstudieutformningen, som alltså bygger på en systematisk jämförelse av två politikområden och två regioner, gör det möjligt att dra både teoretiska och empiriska slutsatser. På så sätt förbättrar alltså projektet vår förståelse för villkoren för framgångsrikt regionalt samarbete bland utvecklingsländer. Den jämförande fallstudiedesignen gör att resultaten kommer vara av relevans bortom de specifika politikområdena och regionerna.Projektet har även viktiga implikationer för beslutsfattande, policy och biståndspolitik. Projektet är upplagt för spridning av forskningsresultat till olika beslutsfattare och praktiker. Tack vare tidigare forskningsprojekt med starka policykomponenter har de två forskarna i projektet redan etablerade kontaktnät som möjliggör fördjupad dialog med  praktiker och beslutsfattare.

The viruses are transmitted by mosquitoes in tropical regions, including many low-income countries. Most infected individuals recover, but in some cases joint pain may persist for several months or even years, and effects of outbreaks on working communities are devastating.Currently no antiviral therapies or vaccines have been approved for any alphavirus infection. In recent research, we showed that viral RNA replication is entirely dependent on interaction with the cellular protein G3BP. We propose to form a collaborative network to use structure-based methods to design compounds which would block viral interaction with G3BP, thus blocking replication of chikungunya virus and the others in the alphavirus group. We will test a number of compounds for antiviral activity, with the best performing compounds being used as templates to design improvements in a second generation of compounds. We will organise a number of meetings at each location and we will apply for further funds to expand our network in future years.Anti-alphaviral compounds would be of enormous benefit for global health, especially in regions of low or low-to-middle income. We hope that this collaboration network proposal will act as a seed for a very strong international network with the delivery of such a drug as our priority. Alfavirusen är en virusgrupp som har orsakat ett antal allvarliga sjukdomar hos miljontals människor under de senaste decennierna. Virusen överförs av myggor i världens tropiska regioner, inklusive Syd- och Centralamerika, Subsahariska Afrika, indiska subkontinenten och Sydostasien. Många av de berörda länderna är låginkomstländer med redan överbelastade hälsovårdssystem. Ett särskilt viktigt exempel är chikungunya virus, orsakssambandet till chikungunya feber, som kännetecknas av symtom som svår ledsmärta, feber, utslag och artrit. De flesta infekterade individer återhämtar sig, men i vissa fall kan smärta vara kvar i flera månader eller till och med år, så effekterna av utbrott på arbetssamhällen kan vara förödande.För närvarande har inga antivirala terapier eller vacciner godkänts för alfavirusinfektion, vilket tyder på det nödvändiga behovet av mer grundforskning om virusfamiljen såväl som målinriktad utveckling av antivirala läkemedel. Nuvarande kontrollåtgärder med inriktning på att hämma myggöverföring och behandling av patienter är begränsade till lättnad av symtom. Framsteg i utvecklingen av antivirala läkemedel för dessa infektioner har varit långsam av flera orsaker. Eftersom tidpunkten och platserna för virusutbrott är oförutsägbara och att de tenderar att förekomma i länder och regioner med begränsade resurser har intresset från läkemedelsföretag varit begränsat. Hämmande utveckling av terapier är också bristen på strukturella data på det virala replikationskomplexet och interaktioner med värdcellproteiner.Ny forskning från McInerney-laboratoriet vid Karolinska Institutet har identifierat en svaghet i tillväxtmekanismerna hos alfavirus som vi föreslår kan utnyttjas för att utveckla en eller flera molekyler som kan hämna infektionen och bota infekterade patienter. Virusproteinet nsP3 binds till ett cellulärt protein som heter G3BP och använder det i replikationen av virala genomerna. Utan denna interaktion kan viruset inte föröka sig. Tillsammans med Tomar-laboratoriet vid Indiska Tekniska Institutet föreslår vi att bilda ett samarbetsnätverk för att använda rationella strukturbaserade metoder för att utforma läkemedel som skulle hämna viral replikation genom att blockera viral proteininteraktion med värdcellproteinet G3BP.

Urbanization simultaneously holds a strong potential for progress and democracy-enhancement, and for destructive and violence-inducing dynamics, a fact encapsulated in the notion of an “urban dilemma”. This project seeks to advance knowledge on why urbanization brings with it intensified ethnic grievances and increasing levels of inter-group violence in the cities in some cases, but not in others, and asks: In the context of rapidly growing cities, under what circumstances do violent ethnocommunal conflicts arise? By systematically analyzing rural-urban patterns of ethnic conflict, the project seeks to identify conditions under which in-migration, urban-rural straddling, and urban politics aggravate or mitigate ethnocommunal conflict in the city. The project employs a mixed-methods design, utilizing geographically disaggregated time-varying data on inter-group violence in rural and urban areas, in-depth field research in three African cities (Kampala, Uganda; Lagos, Nigeria; and Nairobi, Kenya) and a survey among migrants in order to more closely understand the conditions under which urbanization leads to ethnocommunal conflict in the city. The project will generate a better understanding of dynamics that are at the center of current debates around urbanization and sustainable development. Vår värld genomgår urbanisering i en allt snabbare takt, och en stor del av denna utveckling sker i länder drabbade av etnisk konflikt. Men urbanisering innefattar motstridiga trender. Å ena sidan är städer arenor som möjliggör social och ekonomisk utveckling, kosmopolitism och ökad tolerans mellan grupper; på så sätt kan urbanisering bidra till att överbrygga etnisk konflikt. Samtidigt för urbanisering i många fall med sig förstärkt gruppbaserat missnöje och ökat etniskt våld i städerna. Projektet analyserar detta “urbana dilemma” och undersöker varför, och under vilka förutsättningar, urbanisering leder till fördjupad polarisering och etnisk konflikt i vissa städer.I projektet ställer vi den övergripande forskningsfrågan: Under vilka omständigheter uppstår våldsamma etniska konflikter i snabbt växande städer? Forskningen om våld, konflikt och säkerhet i städer har ökat dramatiskt under det senaste årtiondet. Men många av studierna på området fokuserar snävt på staden och dess dynamik, utan att ta hänsyn till hur konflikter i staden påverkas av och är kopplade till konflikter som äger rum på landsbygden och i andra delar av landet. Vi bidrar till existerande forskning om hur man löser konflikter i städer genom att teoretiskt sätta fokus på och empiriskt studera två typer av faktorer: 1) migration till städer och utbyte mellan landsbygd och stad, och 2) stadens politik och institutionella sammanhang. Inom forskningen om urbant våld finns enighet om att politiska och institutionella faktorer starkt påverkar huruvida urbanisering leder till gruppbaserad konflikt i städer, men de specifika omständigheterna och processerna är ännu teoretiskt underutvecklade och inte fullt ut empiriskt studerade. Metodologiskt söker vi systematiskt kartlägga och analysera hur konflikt med ursprung på landsbygden manifesteras i staden, och hur stadens politik och institutioner bidrar till att överbrygga eller polarisera etniska konflikter. Projektet använder en kombination av kvantitativ och kvalitativ metod. För att kartlägga generella mönster i hela Afrika söder om Sahara genomför vi kvantitativa studier som bygger på geografiskt disaggregerad tidsvarierande data om etniskt våld i rurala och urbana områden. För att bättre förstå de mekanismer varigenom urbanisering överbryggar eller förvärrar etnisk konflikt, genomför vi djupgående fallstudier i tre afrikanska städer – Kampala (Uganda), Lagos (Nigeria) and Nairobi (Kenya) – inklusive en enkätstudie med migranter i en av fallstäderna.Urban säkerhet står i centrum för internationella diskussioner om hur fred och utveckling kan främjas i världen och är en fråga som engagerar både lokala och internationella aktörer. Etniska konflikter i staden sätter ekonomisk och demokratisk utveckling på spel, inte bara lokalt, utan även nationellt. För att förhindra och lösa våld som uppstår på grund av etniska konflikter krävs emellertid en förståelse för våldets drivkrafter. Vår forskning sätter fokus både på faktorer som rör migration, politiska dynamiker och viktiga samhälleliga institutioner och kan därför bidra till att stärka åtgärderna för konfliktprevention och konfliktlösning.

The smallholder production is generally characterized as a low input - low output system, where animal health investments are limited. Healthy animals are key to increased productivity and essential for sustainable and resilient development of sheep and goat production. The proposed initiative, bridging veterinary and social sciences, will lead to increased knowledge, technology and the long-term research partnerships needed to move sheep and goat health forward. We will i) investigate how animal health actors are influencing farmers´ decision-making on animal health investments, through true engagement of stakeholders using participatory epidemiological (PE) tools; ii) explore on-farm mortality of sheep and goats, by interviewing farmers, livestock extension and veterinary officers, and validate retrieved information through field necropsies and molecular diagnostics; and iii) investigate drivers playing a role when farmers decide to sell animals. The 2-year project will lead to strengthened capacity in PE, bioinformatics and high-throughput sequencing needed for long-term research partnerships on infectious diseases and health in sheep and goats. Based on generated knowledge we will identify needs for future research to improve sheep and goat health. Får och getter är vanliga husdjur i små lantbruk och för eget husbehov i Afrika, Mellanöstern och Asien. Djuren sköts ofta av kvinnor och småbruket utgör en viktig extrainkomst för dem och deras familjer. Denna sidoinkomst kan vara direkt avgörande för deras dagliga överlevnad och är ett viktigt led i demokratioch jämlikhetsutvecklingen. Smittsamma djursjukdomar såsom peste des petits ruminants (PPR) och smittsam lungsäcks- och lunginflammation hos get (CCPP) utgör emellertid allvarliga hinder för vidareutveckling av småbruken och har beskrivits som en viktig faktor som kan leda till kronisk fattigdom.I jämförelse med nötkreatur, som är relativt dyra, har även de fattigaste människorna på den afrikanska landsbygden råd att köpa får och getter. Dessa djur används ofta inom byteshandel, för ceremoniella ändamål, för att betala läkarbesök, med mera. Därför räknas de ofta inte med i den officiella ekonomin. Småbrukare har begränsade resurser och det kan därför vara svårt att prioritera investeringar i djurhälsa. Det kan även vara dålig tillgänglighet till veterinärer och andra rådgivare, och dessa prioriterar inte alltid får och get. Flera faktorer gör alltså att efterfrågan, nyttjandet och tillgången till djurhälsoservice är begränsad. För att kunna utveckla och anpassa djurhälsoservicen till småbrukares villkor, är det viktigt att veta vad som gör att småbrukare bestämmer sig för att investera i djurhälsa.Andelen djur som dör på grund av sjukdom är många gånger högre i låginkomstländer jämfört med hur det ser ut i höginkomstländer. Och även sjukdom och död hos ett enstaka djur kan ha allvarliga konsekvenser för en familjs levnadsvillkor. För får och get i låginkomstländer ligger dödligheten omkring 15% hos vuxna djur och mellan 22-24% för unga djur. Denna höga dödlighet leder till att djurägare förlorar ett djur för varje två djur som säljs. Förbättrad djurhälsa skulle därmed ge en kraftig förbättring av småbrukares ekonomi. Det saknas idag kunskap om dödsorsaker hos får och get i Tanzania och Zambia. Det finns nämligen endast svaga rapporteringssystem för sjukdom och dödlighet. För att kunna stödja småbrukare på bästa sätt och ge de mest adekvata råden för att förbättra djurhälsa och djurhållning, är det viktigt att ha kunskap om bakomliggande orsaker till varför får och getter dör på gården.Får och getter är viktiga tillgångar för småbrukare och används ofta som en resurs för oväntade utgifter. Djuren kan användas för byteshandel, eller säljas för att kunna betala läkarbesök och barnens skolavgifter, mm. Det är inte alltid en uppenbar fördel att sälja de friskaste och starkaste djuren, eftersom det inte är någon garanti att det inbringar ett högre marknadspris.

The smallholder production is generally characterized as a low input - low output system, where animal health investments are limited. Healthy animals are key to increased productivity and essential for sustainable and resilient development of sheep and goat production. The proposed initiative, bridging veterinary and social sciences, will lead to increased knowledge, technology and the long-term research partnerships needed to move sheep and goat health forward. We will i) investigate how animal health actors are influencing farmers´ decision-making on animal health investments, through true engagement of stakeholders using participatory epidemiological (PE) tools; ii) explore on-farm mortality of sheep and goats, by interviewing farmers, livestock extension and veterinary officers, and validate retrieved information through field necropsies and molecular diagnostics; and iii) investigate drivers playing a role when farmers decide to sell animals. The 2-year project will lead to strengthened capacity in PE, bioinformatics and high-throughput sequencing needed for long-term research partnerships on infectious diseases and health in sheep and goats. Based on generated knowledge we will identify needs for future research to improve sheep and goat health. Får och getter är vanliga husdjur i små lantbruk och för eget husbehov i Afrika, Mellanöstern och Asien. Djuren sköts ofta av kvinnor och småbruket utgör en viktig extrainkomst för dem och deras familjer. Denna sidoinkomst kan vara direkt avgörande för deras dagliga överlevnad och är ett viktigt led i demokratioch jämlikhetsutvecklingen. Smittsamma djursjukdomar såsom peste des petits ruminants (PPR) och smittsam lungsäcks- och lunginflammation hos get (CCPP) utgör emellertid allvarliga hinder för vidareutveckling av småbruken och har beskrivits som en viktig faktor som kan leda till kronisk fattigdom.I jämförelse med nötkreatur, som är relativt dyra, har även de fattigaste människorna på den afrikanska landsbygden råd att köpa får och getter. Dessa djur används ofta inom byteshandel, för ceremoniella ändamål, för att betala läkarbesök, med mera. Därför räknas de ofta inte med i den officiella ekonomin. Småbrukare har begränsade resurser och det kan därför vara svårt att prioritera investeringar i djurhälsa. Det kan även vara dålig tillgänglighet till veterinärer och andra rådgivare, och dessa prioriterar inte alltid får och get. Flera faktorer gör alltså att efterfrågan, nyttjandet och tillgången till djurhälsoservice är begränsad. För att kunna utveckla och anpassa djurhälsoservicen till småbrukares villkor, är det viktigt att veta vad som gör att småbrukare bestämmer sig för att investera i djurhälsa.Andelen djur som dör på grund av sjukdom är många gånger högre i låginkomstländer jämfört med hur det ser ut i höginkomstländer. Och även sjukdom och död hos ett enstaka djur kan ha allvarliga konsekvenser för en familjs levnadsvillkor. För får och get i låginkomstländer ligger dödligheten omkring 15% hos vuxna djur och mellan 22-24% för unga djur. Denna höga dödlighet leder till att djurägare förlorar ett djur för varje två djur som säljs. Förbättrad djurhälsa skulle därmed ge en kraftig förbättring av småbrukares ekonomi. Det saknas idag kunskap om dödsorsaker hos får och get i Tanzania och Zambia. Det finns nämligen endast svaga rapporteringssystem för sjukdom och dödlighet. För att kunna stödja småbrukare på bästa sätt och ge de mest adekvata råden för att förbättra djurhälsa och djurhållning, är det viktigt att ha kunskap om bakomliggande orsaker till varför får och getter dör på gården.Får och getter är viktiga tillgångar för småbrukare och används ofta som en resurs för oväntade utgifter. Djuren kan användas för byteshandel, eller säljas för att kunna betala läkarbesök och barnens skolavgifter, mm. Det är inte alltid en uppenbar fördel att sälja de friskaste och starkaste djuren, eftersom det inte är någon garanti att det inbringar ett högre marknadspris. Friska, starka och reproduktiva djur behålls antagligen hellre än svaga djur, i och med att det ger en bättre avkastning. Att sälja sjuka djur kan dock innebära att smittor sprids.

Researchers from GLD, Malawi, Tanzania and Zambia will prepare and implement projects based on novel survey data that GLD is collecting in ongoing research projects on social institutions, urbanization and local governance. GLD will provide training in survey analysis, and our in-country partners will provide grounded understanding and expertise on governance dynamics in their countries. All partners will engage in data analyses, writing academic articles and conference presentations. The collaboration proceeds as follows: 1) International project leaders based at research institutions in the three collaboration countries invite applications by junior scholars to participate in the research collaboration (January-February 2019); 2) the international project leaders and GLD team select two applicants from each country (March 2019): 3) all participants convene in a workshop to explore GLD data and develop research designs (July 2019); 4) all team members will implement research projects, conducting additional fieldwork as necessary (August-December 2019); 5) team members meet in exchange visits to work jointly on finalizing analyses and writing (January-March 2020); 6) participants present research at GLD’s Annual Conference (June 2020). Det föreslagna projektet ämnar undersöka urbaniseringens inverkan på hur olika samhällsinstitutioner (system av sociala normer och regler som skapar mänskliga beteendemönster) påverkar kvaliteten av offentlig tjänsteleverans i Malawi, Zambia och Tanzania. För att identifiera relevanta samhällsinstitutioner i en kontext där människor med olika traditioner möts, samt samhällsinstitutionernas samverkan med politiska institutioner och deras konsekvenserna för tjänsteleverans, föreslår GLD ett samarbete med lokala forskningsprogram i dessa tre länder. GLD vill därigenom utveckla kontextuellt relevanta teorier om lokal tjänsteleverans, samt skapa varaktiga samarbeten med forskningsinstitutioner i Malawi, Zambia och Tanzania för att främja kontinuerligt lärande och utbyte av idéer inom urbanisering och samhällsinstitutioner.    Forskarlag från GLD, Malawi, Zambia och Tanzania kommer att förbereda och genomföra projekt som bygger på originell data från pågående forskningsprojekt om sociala institutioner, urbanisering och lokal samhällsstyrning.

In this project, an interdisciplinary team of political scientists and hydrologists will investigate extreme hazard events as potential triggers for changes in DRR policy and development. We perform a statistical, global-scale analysis of policy change after extreme events and, using the results, select two comparative case-studies of hazard-induced policy change in lower- and middle-income countries to analyse. Utilizing unique data on DRR policy implementation from 2007-2018, a new merged dataset of climate extremes and disasters, and material from interviews and public sources, we will document the extent to which these events prompt policy change worldwide and assess whether variations  can be explained by income-levels, event magnitude, regular exposure, diffusion effects, agenda-setting, political mobilization, and learning. By testing and specifying explanations for hazard-induced policy change, the results will significantly advance frontiers in natural hazard science, development studies, and public policy. The results will support international efforts to reduce disaster risks through the Sendai framework for DRR. Naturkatastrofer orsakar i genomsnitt 60,000 dödsoffer varje år och ekonomiska skador för 350 miljarder dollar. Stormar, översvämningar, torka och andra extrema väderhändelser står för majoriteten av dessa kostnader och drabbar särskilt utvecklingsländer där antalet dödsoffer och kostnaderna är betydligt större än i rikare delar av världen. Sendai-ramverket för katastrofriskreducering har som mål att minska dessa kostnader till år 2030 och uppmanar länder att vidta åtgärder för att minska risken för och mildra konsekvenserna av framtida katastrofer.Att extrema väderhändelser utvecklas till katastrofer beror på samhällens sårbarhet, vilket bottnar i fattigdom, låg ekonomisk utveckling och bristande samhällsplanering. Därför krävs omfattande förändringar av policy, vilket samtidigt bromsas av starka intressen, lagstiftning och tröga förvaltningssystem. Kriser och katastrofer kan tillfälligt undanröja dessa hinder och skapa möjligheter för mer omfattande förändringar av lagar, regler, institutioner och planer. Detta är en etablerad insikt inom Sendai-ramverket, som uppmanar länder att bättre utnyttja erfarenheter från naturkatastrofer i syfte att utveckla åtgärder för att minska katastrofrisker. Fallstudier visar emellertid att bara vissa naturkatastrofer medför förändringar av policy. Forskningen har samtidigt begränsats av bristfälliga data dels över extrema väderhändelser, dels för policyutveckling i olika länder. Det saknas därför kunskap om hur och varför naturkatastrofer leder till policyförändringar i syfte att minska katastrofrisker.Syftet med projektet TRAMPOLINE är att ta fram ny kunskap om hur och varför extrema väderhändelser skapar möjligheter för länder att utveckla policy för att stärka arbetet med katastrofriskreducering. Vi gör detta genom en helt unik global undersökning av sambandet mellan extrema väderhändelser och policyförändringar på nationell nivå. Studien omfattar åren 2007-2018 och genomförs med hjälp av nya data från databaser över extrema väderhändelser och länders implementering av åtgärder givna av Sendai-ramverket. Genom att kombinera dessa data kan vi för första gången på global nivå studera om policyförändringar kan förklaras av omfattningen av väderhändelser, upprepade väderhändelser, länders utvecklingsnivå, och om erfarenheter sprids mellan länder. I nästa steg genomför vi två jämförande fallstudier av länder på samma utvecklingsnivå som utsatts för liknande väderhändelser, men där graden av policyförändring skiljt sig åt. Målet med denna del av projektet är att granska och utveckla mer detaljerade förklaringar av skillnader i policyförändring, exempelvis lärande, ansvarsutkrävande, och mobilisering av intressen.Dessa studier förutsätter en kombination samhällsvetenskaplig forskning om policyskapande och naturvetenskaplig forskning om extrema väderhändelser. Forskargruppen, som leds av Statsvetenskapliga institutionen vid Uppsala Universitet, består därför av forskare inom statskunskap och hydrologi. Forskargruppen är knuten till Centrum för Naturkatastroflära (CNDS), ett tvärvetenskapligt centrum som erbjuder expertkunskaper, forskningskontakter, och kanaler för forskningskommunikation till gagn för projektet. Vi inrättar också en rådgivande kommitté av internationella forskare och experter inom katastrofriskreducering. Kommittén bistår forskargruppen med praktiska råd exempelvis avseende datainsamling, men utgör även en länk till Sendai-ramverket för att stärka projektets praktiska relevans och underlätta spridning av resultat.      Projektet tillför ny kunskap för förklara hur och varför extrema väderhändelser påverkar länders arbete med katastrofriskreducering och utveckling. Resultaten sprids genom publicering i internationella tidskrifter och vid konferenser inom ramen för Sendai-ramverket. Det material som samlas in kommer att göras tillgängligt genom en hemsida i syfte att uppmuntra vidare studier. Resultaten kommer till nytta dels för att pröva och utveckla teoretiska förklaringar av sambandet mellan extrema händelser och policyförändring, dels som kunskapsunderlag för att stödja arbetet genom Sendai-ramverket för att begränsa risken för och konsekvenser av naturkatastrofer. Vi gör härmed angelägna bidrag till utvecklingsstudier och policyforskning, men framförallt till den växande tvärdisciplinära forskningen om klimatkatastrofer, speciellt i länder som är särskilt utsatta på grund av fattigdom och låg ekonomisk utveckling.

MPAs are globally supported by States, managers and scientists. However, they are not completely unproblematic and to date gender analysis of their impacts are missing. Studies tend to focus on ecology and men dominated activities. This research will investigate the impacts of MPAs from a gender perspective (focus on men and women) and link to the SDG agenda. The research will create generic models of gender and MPAs and further, address 3 key questions about the gendered impacts of MPAs in 1) food security, 2) new job generation and 3) adaptive capacity to climate change. The social-ecological proposed research is multidisciplinary using methods like mapping and ecosystem sampling while the social aspects will be investigated with interviews and the diary method.

Larmrapporterna om överutnyttjande av marina resurser, framför allt inom djuphavsfisket men även det kustnära fisket, kommer allt oftare. Detta är ett stort problem, särskilt för kustbefolkningar runt om i världen som är nästan helt beroende av marina resurser både för sin livsmedelssäkerhet som att generera inkomster. En alltmer vanligt förekommande åtgärd för att säkerställa hållbarheten är att inrätta marina reservat eller marina skyddade område där man t ex tillåts använda resurser i vissa förutbestämda zoner, under vissa tider på året, att man inför kvoter eller där resursanvändning är helt förbjudet.Resultaten så långt tycks peka på att marina reservat är lyckosamma särskilt i de utvecklade länderna där det finns andra utkomstmöjligheter för fiskare och andra resursanvändare medan situationen är mer problematisk i utvecklingsländerna där marina reservat kan vara ekologiska succéer men socialt inte alls.Samtidigt finns en tendens att se marint resursutnyttjande som en typisk manlig aktivitet, inte bara i hushållningen utan även i forskningen där det finns ett fokus på just fenfiske medan aktiviteter där kvinnor är verksamma hittills i stort negligerats. Det kan handla om plockning av musslor, fiska små fiskar med enkla metoder, odla alger, bereda fisk och laga nät.Projektet söker komma till rätta med detta genom att undersöka hur kvinnor respektive män i de berörda områdena påverkas av marina reservat. Det är mycket viktigt att undersöka hur kvinnor och män resursanvändning har påverkats av inrättandet av marina reservat. Vi vill veta hur män och kvinnor lever i dessa områden, och hur de påverkas av de nya reservaten. Hur födasäkerhet förändrats? Har man skapat nya och viktiga jobb? Har människors situation har förbättrats så att de är mera adaptiva och motståndskraftiga mot klimatförändringar? Hur kan man göra det bättre för både män och kvinnor? Dessa aktuella och viktiga frågor söker projektet svar på i en jämförelse av fiskebyar inom och utanför ett antal marina reservat i två länder, Mexiko och Tanzania. Dessa länder ligger i tropikerna och de har ekosystem som väldigt mycket liknar varandra, medan det är stora skillnader när det gäller sociala och kulturella faktorer. Ekosystemen i de olika områdena kartläggs med metoder som kartografi, mätningar och observationer med hjälp av dykning och snorkling, men också med hjälp av intervjuer med lokalbefolkningarna.  Vi ska också använda den så kallade ”Dagsbok metod” i vilket människorna skriver varje dag viktig information, som vad har de gjort, vad de har ätit, mm. Detta är viktigt för att information som kommer varje dag blir alltmer tillförlitliga. Projektet förväntas bidra till en förbättrad förståelse, planering och implementering av de globala målen (SDG) som FN tillsammans med de flesta länder har kommit överens om. Vi hoppas att projektet bidrar till ett bättre liv och bättre resursanvändning i dessa viktiga kustområden.

Control of this epidemic is hampered by the lack of an effective vaccine and emergence of multi-drug resistance. This project addresses the question of how the immune system is altered epigenetically due to TB exposure in both peripheral blood and in the lungs. The project builds on our previous studies, in which we demonstrate that mycobacterial exposure triggers epigenetic changes in immune cells. In the present study we will 1) use an existing collection of cryo-preserved immune cells isolated from TB-exposed individuals area in order to identify an epigenetic biosignature that reflects TB exposure, 2) investigate the epigenomes in immune cells of health care workers before and after a year of medical residency in high-endemic areas to validate the finding and  3) map the epigenome of immune cells isolated from TB-patients and their household contacts and investigate whether the biosignature is useful as a biomarker to discriminate these exposed individuals from unexposed controls. The results will enhance the understanding of how natural exposure to TB affects lung immunity and the generated knowledge will have importance for guiding the development of novel strategies for prevention, diagnosis and prediction of treatment outcome. Tuberkulos orsakas av en bakterie och med 10 miljoner insjuknande och 2 miljoner döda varje år är sjukdomen en av vår tids största globala hot. Tuberkulos kräver långvarig behandling och om man drabbas av antibiotikaresistent tuberkulos är behandlingstiden två år med svåra biverkningar. Tuberkulosbakterien överlever inuti vita blodkroppar (immunceller) som finns i lungan. Dessa celler har normalt förmåga att avdöda bakterier, men denna förmåga hämmas av tuberkelbakterien. Ett viktigt forskningsmål idag är att, utveckla ett effektivt vaccin som förebygger tuberkulosinfektion. Detta skulle på sikt kunna möjliggöra att sjukdomen utrotas. Liksom traditionell vaccinutveckling, inriktas alla pågående tuberkulos-vaccinstudier mot att skräddarsy ett så kallat förvärvat immunförsvar mot tuberkulosbakterier. Detta tillvägagångssätt bygger på antaganden kring infektionen, som till exempel att ett tidigare insjuknande skulle göra individen immun mot att få sjukdomen igen. Men då det gäller tuberkulos är det vanligt att man får sjukdomen igen när man blir smittad på nytt. Däremot är det bara en av tio smittade individer som utvecklar aktiv sjukdom och grunden för vår forskning är att försöka förstå hur exponerade individer klarar av att helt oskadliggöra bakterierna. Våra frågeställningar handlar om att försöka förklara hur så kallade epigenetiska mekanismer kan påverka vårt immunförsvar så att vi skyddas mot tuberkulos. Epigenetik handlar om att det genetiska materialet kan slås på och av med hjälp av kemisk modifiering av DNA-stegen, och att celler kan förändra sitt aktiveringsmönster med hjälp av sådana kemiska modifikationer. Detta ”epigenetiska immunminne”, som vi kunnat identifiera, är helt annorlunda än det immunminne som ligger till grund för samtliga existerande vacciner. Denna banbrytande upptäckt kräver ytterligare studier för att bereda väg för ett nytt sätt att utveckla strategier för att skydda individer från tuberkulossmitta. Under projektet kommer vi att 1) genom moderna metoder som omfattar hela genomet identifiera ett epigenetiskt mönster i immunceller isolerade från vårdpersonal före och efter de arbetar i ett område där tuberkulos är vanligt, vilket innebär att de kan ha utsatts för tuberkulossmitta och 2) studera om denna så kallade biosignatur kan återfinnas hos tuberkulospatienters nära kontaktpersoner som utsatts för smitta men inte blivit sjuka. Projektet förväntas få betydelse för utveckling av ny förståelse för hur tuberkulos kan förebyggas och hur en epigenetisk biosignatur kan användas för diagnostik och prognos inom tuberkulosvården.

Däremot är det bara en av tio smittade individer som utvecklar aktiv sjukdom och grunden för vår forskning är att försöka förstå hur exponerade individer klarar av att helt oskadliggöra bakterierna. Våra frågeställningar handlar om att försöka förklara hur så kallade epigenetiska mekanismer kan påverka vårt immunförsvar så att vi skyddas mot tuberkulos. Epigenetik handlar om att det genetiska materialet kan slås på och av med hjälp av kemisk modifiering av DNA-stegen, och att celler kan förändra sitt aktiveringsmönster med hjälp av sådana kemiska modifikationer. Detta ”epigenetiska immunminne”, som vi kunnat identifiera, är helt annorlunda än det immunminne som ligger till grund för samtliga existerande vacciner. Denna banbrytande upptäckt kräver ytterligare studier för att bereda väg för ett nytt sätt att utveckla strategier för att skydda individer från tuberkulossmitta. Under projektet kommer vi att 1) genom moderna metoder som omfattar hela genomet identifiera ett epigenetiskt mönster i immunceller isolerade från vårdpersonal före och efter de arbetar i ett område där tuberkulos är vanligt, vilket innebär att de kan ha utsatts för tuberkulossmitta och 2) studera om denna så kallade biosignatur kan återfinnas hos tuberkulospatienters nära kontaktpersoner som utsatts för smitta men inte blivit sjuka. Projektet förväntas få betydelse för utveckling av ny förståelse för hur tuberkulos kan förebyggas och hur en epigenetisk biosignatur kan användas för diagnostik och prognos inom tuberkulosvården.

Our focus is on the likely effectiveness of state adaptation strategies and policies targeted at the mitigation of those risks. We propose an innovative application of a ‘legal consciousness’ analytical frame to the examination of how residents of informal settlements may respond in their everyday resistance to state adaptation measures as a ´weapon of the weak´. We have selected a case study site that offers a particularly rich setting for the deep exploration of potential dynamics between risk perception, legal consciousness and transformational adaptation: an informal settlement within Maputo, Mozambique. Mozambique itself provides a fertile background context for the case study due to its exposure to extreme weather events, rapid urbanization, and the nature of its socio-political history. The project will address our core research questions through a range of data by way of well-established, low cost and novel combination of qualitative methods to generate new insights on the relationships between risks, legal conciousness and transformational adaptation in the context of the urban poor, and present novel insights on the contributions of socio-legal studies to development-environment scholarship.

Vi anser att det är viktigt att förstå individuella och sociala uppfattningar av risk bland de boende som bor i informella bostadsområden, och som utgör några av de fattigaste invånarna i samhället. Vad är deras uppfattning av de risker som klimatförändringarna för med sig? Ser de sig som sårbara? Hur reagerar och handlar de utifrån dessa risker i deras vardagliga liv i de informella bostadsområdena? Skapar deras handlande motstånd, och vilken typ av motstånd? Svaren på dessa frågor kommer sannolikt att vara väldigt betydelsefulla för hur effektiva statens försök att mildra och dämpa klimatförändringar är, och kommer att bli.Den andra faktorn handlar om att det är viktigt att förstå hur vanliga uppfattningar vad gäller risk relaterar till attityder gentemot rättsstaten i de informella bostadsområdena(som ofta benämns som de boendes ”juridiska samvete”). Lagar utgör till stor del de styrmedel som staten har till sitt förfogande vad gäller att förbereda och anpassa sig till klimatförändringar. Kulturella uppfattningar omrättsliga processer i informella bostadsområden utgör en komplex kontext för staten att agera i. Formella statliga institutioner är ofta svaga i dessa områden. Statliga lagar och regler kan mötas med motstånd, ignoreras, eller uppfattas som misstänksamma av de boende. Vidare är Mocambique, liksom en stor del av subsahariska Afrika, ett pluralistisk rättsligt samhälle. Den moderna staten agerar sida vid sida med en mer traditionell typ av lag. Boendes uppfattningar om vad som är lagligt bindande eller lagligt rätt kanske inte alltid överensstämmermed statliga lagar.Vår forskningsansats är framtagen för att förena och bygga broar mellan vetenskap, politik och fattiga bostadsområden, och bidra med ny kunskap inom utvecklingsstudier, kopplade till klimatanpassning och juridiska studier.Projektet kommer att använda sig av deltagande forskningsmetoder genom att involvera de som är påverkade av miljöförändringar.Projektetkommer att fokusera på att fördjupa förståelsen av en speciell plats – och utifråndet dra generella slutsatser.På så vis strävar vi efter att ge en röst till de som bor i informella bostadsområden – som idag är marginaliserade vad gäller deltagande i klimatanpassningspolicies och planering.

Under den två-års period, som vi sökt finansiering, är ambitionen att: 1) utveckla åtgärdspaket för att förbättra och uppnå en säker och respektfull förlossningsvård, 2) analysera, utveckla nuvarande system för data insamling eller elektroniska register samt inspirera till införande av dessa? vid andra sjukhus, 3) undersöka möjligheterna att förbättra diagnostik för syrebrist vid förlossning genom mätning av laktat i navelsträngsblod och 4) gemensamt definiera forskningsfrågor och utforma forskningsansökningar.Under två-års perioden kommer vi använda en strukturerad modell for att identifiera de största flaskhalsarna inom vården genom att bedöma förlossningspersonalens kunskaper och genomföra deltagande observationer för att undersöka vårdpraxis inklusive fosterövervakning, beslutsfattande samt resurser. Vi kommer också studera organisation, team-arbete, förbättringspotentialen för evidensbaserade vård, samt utveckla rutiner för beaktandet av mödrars självrapporterade och hälsa i förbättringsarbetet.Efter detta formativa arbete ämnar vi formulera en förändringsteori (theory of change). Vi kommer studera existerande datauppsamlingssystem och register, då fungerade sådana system är viktiga för varje typ av utvärdering och förbättringsarbete. Vi kommer också utvärdera huruvida metoden med mått på mjölksyra i navelsträngsblodet för diagnostik av syrebrist kan genomföras.

ForskningsidéPsykisk ohälsa utgör en stor del av sjukdomsbördan, alltså de effekter som ett hälsoproblem har mätt i tex finansiella kostnader, dödlighet, sjuklighet, över hela världen. Enligt en artikel publicerad i den ansedda medicinska tidskriften The Lancet år 2015 var depression bland de tio ledande orsaker till sjukdomsbörda i alla de 188 länder som undersöktes. Trots de stora svårigheter i form av ekonomiskt och personligt lidande som psykiska problem orsakar i utvecklingsländer så har dessa till största delen ignorerats till förmån för sjukdomar som är lättare att förstå som HIV/AIDS, Tuberkulos och Malaria. Fattigdom och psykisk ohälsa tycks interagera i en ond spiral, där fattigdom och psykisk ohälsa påverkar varandra. Forskning visar emellertid att det effektivaste sättet att bryta denna onda spiral är att fokusera på hjälp mot psykisk ohälsa. I utvecklingsländer är psykisk ohälsa dessutom många gånger förknippat med stigma och diskriminering, vilket innefattar uteslutning från sociala och ekonomiska möjligheter. Detta syns även i att huvuddelen av de afrikanska länderna spenderar mindre än 1% av sin hälsobudget på psykisk hälsa.Forskning på psykoterapi tenderar att utgå från forskningslaboratoriet, där forskare tänker ut nya eller försöker förbättra existerande interventioner för olika patientgrupper. Dessa interventioner ska sedan läras ut till praktiserande psykoterapeuter. Ett problem med denna forskningsstrategi är att eftersom forskarna inte har möjlighet att testa alla möjliga interventioner för alla möjliga tillstånd (eller kombinationer av tillstånd), så kommer forskarnas intressen, samhälls- och politiska trender mm att till stor del styra vilka interventioner som forskas på snarare än patienternas eller de praktiserande terapeuternas behov. Detta har kallats för ”empirisk imperialism”, då forskarna (empirikerna) har makten att styra vad terapeuterna ute i verksamheterna ska göra. Problemet med detta riskerar att förvärras ytterligare då interventioner som har utvecklats i Europa eller USA lärs ut till terapeuter i låg- eller lägre medelinkomstländer med andra kulturer. Risken är att interventionerna inte passar den lokala kulturen, så att interventionerna blir ineffektiva och ger sämre resultat än de metoder som terapeuterna använde innan forskarna införde de nya metoderna.Vi föreslår ett alternativt sätt att forska på psykoterapi, som vi tror är speciellt relevant i låg- och lägre medelinkomstländer som Uganda och Kenya. I detta synsätt utgår forskningen initialt från den behandling som sker ute i verksamheterna. Forskarna kartlägger effekterna av behandlingarna som bedrivs, och undersöker hur resultaten för olika patientgrupper står sig gentemot resultat publicerade i forskningstidskrifter. De patientgrupper som får sämre resultat än förväntat är de som forskarna behöver fokusera extra mycket på för att utveckla bättre eller anpassa existerande metoder. Dessa kan sedan testas med mer kontrollerad experimentell forskning, för att se om de ger tilläggseffekter gentemot sedvanlig behandling.Utöver detta tänker vi oss att forskare behöver undersöka patienters syn på psykisk ohälsa, dess orsaker och vad de tror om behandling, eftersom forskning visar att patienters motivation, förväntningar och samstämmighet mellan patientens världssyn och terapimetoden har betydelse för deras möjligheter att tillgodogöra sig behandlingen. Dessutom tänker vi att det är värdefullt att undersöka hur terapeuter har försökt anpassa sina interventioner till lokala kulturer och sedvänjor, då denna information är värdefull vid implementering av nya metoder i de lokala kulturerna.SamarbetetDetta projekt handlar om samarbete i ett nätverk av forskare inom psykiatri och psykologi från Uganda, Kenya, Holland och Sverige. Samarbetet har som mål att producera en färdig forskningsplan och ansökningar om forskningsmedel till olika forskningsråd för att kunna genomföra det föreslagna projektet på statliga sjukhus och mottagningar i Uganda och Kenya. Nätverket, som består av fyra kvinnor och fyra män (två psykiatriker och sex psykologer) kommer under två års tid att träffas regelbundet i Uganda, Kenya, Holland och Sverige. Under år två (2020) kommer också en konferens att anordnas vid Linköpings Universitet, med forskare från Kenya, Uganda och Sverige. Samarbetet har betydelse dels för kunskapsspridning mellan de olika forskargrupperna och dels för personer med psykisk ohälsa i Uganda och Kenya som kan få bättre behandling.

Our previous study confirms the efficacy of PAC provided by midwives in 1st trimester pregnancy. An on-going trial will provide the evidence for safe medical management of 2nd trimester PAC. The network led by researchers from Karolinska Institutet-Makerere University and the planned activities will provide a platform for implementation of evidence to practice by i) task shifting to midlevel providers in PAC, ii) by evaluating telemedicine provision of CAC and, iii) by providing information on the safety, efficacy and acceptability of post PAC provision of intrauterine contraception. Close collaboration between partner-researchers will facilitate study planning, implementation, analysis and dissemination to relevant stakeholders. Throughout the study period, in-service training of medical management in CAC, PAC and provision of intrauterine contraception will be held, and workshops and policy dialogues with stakeholders will help to tailor-make service guidelines and to lobby for inclusion of CAC in policy. Dissemination seminars will be held in 2019 and 2020 Projektet syftar till att bygga vidare på ett nyligen etablerat nätverk av forskare från Uganda och Sverige för att implementera evidensbaserad abortvård (engelska; comprehensive abortion care, CAC) vilket även inkluderar behandling av ofullständig abort som kan bero på missfall eller inducerad abort så kallad post abortion care (PAC) samt öka tillgång till effektiva preventivmedel efter PAC. Varje år mister cirka 100000 kvinnor I världen livet till följd av osäkra aborter eller avsaknad av preventivmedel. De allra flesta, 97% av alla osäkra aborter utförs i Afrika på grund av restriktiva abortlagar, brist på utbildad personal, stigma och användning av icke-evidensbaserade metoder. Genom ökad tillgång till CAC kan dessa dödsfall förhindras.Vår forskargrupp har successivt utvecklat medicinsk abortbehandling från den första innovationen till en säker, effektiv och av brukarna väl accepterad metod. I Sverige väljer 90 % medicinsk abort eftersom risker förknippade med aborten minimeras, kvinnans autonomi och hennes (samt hennes eventuella partners) konkreta delaktighet ökar och behandlingen upplevs som mer naturlig. För kvinnor som saknar tillgång till säker abortvård kan möjligheten till rådgivning och egenbehandling genom telemedicin (via internet) få enorm betydelse för att förhindra osäkra aborter.Projektet kommer att definiera kunskapsluckor, planera kliniska prövningar och baserat på resultaten, implementera evidensbaserad kunskap i klinisk praxis I Uganda och liknande kontexter. Detta genom uppdaterade riktlinjer och utbildningsprogram för att öka tillgången till CAC på lägsta möjliga nivå inom sjukvårdssystemen. De planerade aktiviteterna fokuserar på att förebygga konsekvenserna av osäkra aborter och inkluderar; Task shifting vilket innebär ett skifte av vård utförd av läkare till barnmorskor eller till kvinnor själva. Traditionellt utförs PAC med kirurgiska metoder. Våra tidigare studier i Uganda har lett till en medicinsk behandling av ofullständiga aborter i 1a trimestern genom användning av misoprostol (abortpiller). Denna behandling kan utföras av barnmorskor inom primärvården, där tillgång till läkare och kirurgisk behandling ofta saknas. De allra flesta komplikationer och dödsfall efter osäkra aborter sker dock i senare graviditeter, under 2a trimestern.Kirurgisk behandling vid 2a trimester PAC är komplicerad och görs ofta med osäkra metoder av oerfaren vårdpersonal. Vi har visat att medicinsk behandling är effektiv även i 2a trimestern vilket innebär att behandlingen potentiellt kan utföras av barnmorskor på distriktnivå.Förebyggande av osäkra aborter genom att öka tillgängligheten till säker behandling genom telemedicin. På detta sätt ökas kvinnors autonomi och kontroll och risken för osäkra ingrepp och behandingar minskar.Innnovativa ideer för att möjliggöra “quickstart” av effektiva och accepterade preventivmedel efter PAC. Projektet syftar till att bidra med evidens för förenklade möjligheter att använda de mest effektiva långverkande reversibla preventivmetoderna för att ge kvinnor ökad möjlighet att förebygga oönskade graviditeter.För framgångsrik implementering av forskningsresultat är det viktigt att involvera intressenter i ett tidigt skede, samt nå ut till målgruppen genom att använda etablerade verktyg för kunskapsöverföring. Projektet kommer att utföras i samarbete med Ugandas hälsoministerie samt engagera samarbetspartners vid WHO. Projektet tar avstamp i gruppens tidigare forskning för att skapa intresse och initiera strategiskt arbete, utbildning och påverkansarbete från start. Medverkande Ugandiska forskare och kliniker kommer öka projektets genomförbarhet och sörja för kommunikation med intressenter. Policy-dialoger, workshops och utbildningar planeras.Resultatet av studierna kan bidra till minskad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet dels genom utveckling av bättre tillgång till säker abortvård och genom att förebygga oönskade graviditeter. Förutom individuella effekter på kvinnors hälsa kan resultaten även ge positiva effekter inom hälsosystemet genom färre vårdsökande kvinnor på grund av osäkra aborter och genom bättre allokering av vårdpersonal och genom minskad stigma (genom ökad kunskap). För att se förändring måste transformering av resultat till policy och riktlinjer ges stor vikt. Resultaten kommer att publiceras i vetenskapliga tidskrifter samt delges politiker, forskare och andra intressenter i samband med konferenser samt workshops planerade inom ramen för projektet.

Genom ökad tillgång till CAC kan dessa dödsfall förhindras.Vår forskargrupp har successivt utvecklat medicinsk abortbehandling från den första innovationen till en säker, effektiv och av brukarna väl accepterad metod. I Sverige väljer 90 % medicinsk abort eftersom risker förknippade med aborten minimeras, kvinnans autonomi och hennes (samt hennes eventuella partners) konkreta delaktighet ökar och behandlingen upplevs som mer naturlig. För kvinnor som saknar tillgång till säker abortvård kan möjligheten till rådgivning och egenbehandling genom telemedicin (via internet) få enorm betydelse för att förhindra osäkra aborter.Projektet kommer att definiera kunskapsluckor, planera kliniska prövningar och baserat på resultaten, implementera evidensbaserad kunskap i klinisk praxis I Uganda och liknande kontexter. Detta genom uppdaterade riktlinjer och utbildningsprogram för att öka tillgången till CAC på lägsta möjliga nivå inom sjukvårdssystemen. De planerade aktiviteterna fokuserar på att förebygga konsekvenserna av osäkra aborter och inkluderar; Task shifting vilket innebär ett skifte av vård utförd av läkare till barnmorskor eller till kvinnor själva. Traditionellt utförs PAC med kirurgiska metoder. Våra tidigare studier i Uganda har lett till en medicinsk behandling av ofullständiga aborter i 1a trimestern genom användning av misoprostol (abortpiller). Denna behandling kan utföras av barnmorskor inom primärvården, där tillgång till läkare och kirurgisk behandling ofta saknas. De allra flesta komplikationer och dödsfall efter osäkra aborter sker dock i senare graviditeter, under 2a trimestern.Kirurgisk behandling vid 2a trimester PAC är komplicerad och görs ofta med osäkra metoder av oerfaren vårdpersonal. Vi har visat att medicinsk behandling är effektiv även i 2a trimestern vilket innebär att behandlingen potentiellt kan utföras av barnmorskor på distriktnivå.Förebyggande av osäkra aborter genom att öka tillgängligheten till säker behandling genom telemedicin. På detta sätt ökas kvinnors autonomi och kontroll och risken för osäkra ingrepp och behandingar minskar.Innnovativa ideer för att möjliggöra “quickstart” av effektiva och accepterade preventivmedel efter PAC. Projektet syftar till att bidra med evidens för förenklade möjligheter att använda de mest effektiva långverkande reversibla preventivmetoderna för att ge kvinnor ökad möjlighet att förebygga oönskade graviditeter.För framgångsrik implementering av forskningsresultat är det viktigt att involvera intressenter i ett tidigt skede, samt nå ut till målgruppen genom att använda etablerade verktyg för kunskapsöverföring. Projektet kommer att utföras i samarbete med Ugandas hälsoministerie samt engagera samarbetspartners vid WHO. Projektet tar avstamp i gruppens tidigare forskning för att skapa intresse och initiera strategiskt arbete, utbildning och påverkansarbete från start. Medverkande Ugandiska forskare och kliniker kommer öka projektets genomförbarhet och sörja för kommunikation med intressenter. Policy-dialoger, workshops och utbildningar planeras.Resultatet av studierna kan bidra till minskad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet dels genom utveckling av bättre tillgång till säker abortvård och genom att förebygga oönskade graviditeter. Förutom individuella effekter på kvinnors hälsa kan resultaten även ge positiva effekter inom hälsosystemet genom färre vårdsökande kvinnor på grund av osäkra aborter och genom bättre allokering av vårdpersonal och genom minskad stigma (genom ökad kunskap). För att se förändring måste transformering av resultat till policy och riktlinjer ges stor vikt. Resultaten kommer att publiceras i vetenskapliga tidskrifter samt delges politiker, forskare och andra intressenter i samband med konferenser samt workshops planerade inom ramen för projektet.

The study thereby aims to emphasise the circular and transnational dimensions of labour migration, which are often forgotten as national capital cities tend to be seen as the inevitable and final destinations for rural labour migrants. Against this trend, this project identifies secondary cities as central nodes for various forms of mobility, including labour recruitment. The project applies an innovative analytical framework – around the concept of soft infrastructures – which allows for the analytical incorporation of the complexity and flexibility that characterises labour migration in West Africa. The more specific aims of the project are, therefore, to 1) identify the primary soft infrastructures that facilitate the recruitment and circulation of labour within formal and informal economic sectors; to 2) understand how urban dwellers plan and practice regional mobility, with particular attention to the aspirations, discourses, and networks that facilitate them, and 3) to provide a qualitative analysis of the gendered and generationally stratified mobilities that predominate in the four primary field sites. The project is based on an anthropological methodology, primarily using in-depth interviewing and informal conversation; participant observation; and the collection of life histories and extended case studies. Det här komparativa antropologiska forskningsprojektet handlar om regional arbetsmobilitet i Västafrika. Mer specifikt utforskar projektet regionala arbetsmigranters mobilitet genom och mellan städer i Burkina Faso, Niger, Mali, och Guinea. Studien syftar därmed till att lyfta fram den cirkulära och transnationella aspekten av arbetsmigration som ofta glöms bort eftersom huvudstäder tenderar att uppfattas som oundvikliga destinationer för rurala arbetsmigranter. Projektet identifierar istället regional städer – det vill säga små eller medelstora städer – som centrala noder av olika former av mobilitet inklusive arbetsrekrytering. Regionala städer sammankopplar rurala och urbana världar och är därmed också viktiga transitpunkter för migranter som antingen är på genomresa eller som dröjer sig kvar. Projektet tittar på fyra viktiga former av arbetsmobilitet i regionen i fokus nämligen transportverksamhet, småskalig transnationell handel, småskalig gruvdrift och väpnad strid (rekrytering av kombattanter) som alla sammanlänkar landsbygden med regionala center och vidare över nationsgränser. Projektet använder sig av ett innovativt analytiskt ramverk – mjuka infrastrukturer – som bygger på tidigare antropologiskforskning om migrationsinfrastruktur och arbete och som ger utrymme för den flexibilitet som karaktäriserar arbetsmobilitet i regionen. Dom mer specifika målen är att 1) identifiera vilka typer av mjuk infrastruktur – till exempel sociala relationer, nätverk och brokers- som underlättar rekrytering och omsättning av arbetskraft inom formella och informella ekonomiska sektorer 2) förstå hur arbetsmigranter planerar och utövar regional mobilitet med ett speciellt fokus på aspirationer och diskurser som möjliggör och inspirerar till regional mobilitet och 3) bidra med en kvalitativ analys av hur genus och generation spelar in på möjligheten till arbetsmobilitet. Viktiga frågor är hur länge migranter stannar i staden; hur personliga och sociala nätverk bidrar till migranternas yrkesval och färdvägar; vilka genusroller som uttrycks i samband med arbetsmigration över nationsgränser och vilka kommunikationsstrategier och teknologi som används.

To abolish hunger and feed a growing population without depleting natural resources, new ideas and tools are required. As part of sustainable agriculture, biotechnology can play a key role to improve food production in SSA. However, the limited biotechnical capacities and the current policy in many SSA countries for regulating these technologies hamper the realization of their full potential in the region.We therefore want to (i) improve knowledge-exchange and capacity building to better implement plant biotech in SSA, especially the emerging technique of genome editing, and (ii) explore the implications of converging and/or diverging plant biotechnology policies in the EU and Africa.We focus on cassava and potato, two important staple crops in SSA facing different challenges: Cassava is nutrient-poor and potato is easily devastated by late blight. Genome editing is a promising way to increase Provitamin A and combat vitamin A deficiency, affecting millions of people. Better late blight resistance would decrease yield-losses and fungicide use, and thus increase income while reducing impact farmers’ health.At the same time, it is important that biotech policies and regulations in SSA are supportive rather than restrictive or prohibitive. One contribution of this proposal is to increase the dialogue between researchers and policy-makers. Över stora delar av Afrika spelar jordbruket en central roll. Det stödjer landsbygden och är viktigt för ekonomisk tillväxt. Totalt bidrar jordbruket med nära 20% av kontinentens BNP och runt hälften av det totala värdet av all afrikansk export. Samtidigt har Afrika söder om Sahara för närvarande den högsta förekomsten av undernäring, och cirka 16% av den totala befolkningen saknar tillräckligt med mat.Tyvärr förväntas klimatförändringarna ha en mycket stor påverkan på produktionen inom jordbruket i Afrika söder om Sahara som redan är en av de fattigaste regionerna i världen med en osäker livsmedelsförsörjning. Till exempel uppskattar man att klimatförändringen 2080 kommer framtvinga en import av hela 143 miljoner ton spannmål, vilket är en enorm ökning från dagens cirka 7 miljoner ton. Behovet av att föda en växande befolkning på en allt mer begränsad landyta kommer att kräva nya verktyg för att påskynda utvecklingen av jordbruket.Vi tror att bioteknik kan spela en viktig framtida roll för att förbättra effektiviteten inom jordbruket och livsmedelsproduktionen på den afrikanska kontinenten. Hållbart jordbruk kombinerar ökad jordbruksproduktion och ekonomisk utveckling samtidigt som det främjar miljöskydd och en mer rättvis fördelning av inkomster. För att nå sin fulla potential, måste jordbruksbioteknik framgångsrikt införlivas i ett hållbart jordbruk. Med rätt användning kan det mildra en del av Afrikas kroniska problem såsom matbrist och brist på näringsrik mat. I det här projektet fokuserar vi på de viktiga stapelgrödorna kassava och potatis. Kassava odlas flitigt i Afrika eftersom den inte behöver näringsrika jordar och är relativt torktålig. Flera hundra miljoner människor är beroende av denna gröda för sin överlevnad idag. Potatis är också en mycket viktig stapelgröda, och har under de senaste 20 åren odlats i kraftigt ökande omfattning i Afrika. Men dessa grödor lider av två olika problem: kassavan är näringsfattig, särskilt när det gäller provitamin A, som är nödvändig för att motverka allvarliga bristsjukdomar, till exempel blindhet, medan potatisen lätt blir angripen av potatisbladmögel vilket leder till stora skördebortfall om den inte rikligt besprutas med bekämpningsmedel.Förbättrade sorter av dessa grödor är ofta det enda alternativ som resurssvaga odlare kan förlita sig på i ett mer lågintensivt jordbruk med små ekonomiska resurser att använda till gödning och bekämpningsmedel. Men att förädla kassava och potatis på traditionellt sätt är svårt, eftersom de är mycket genetiskt diversa och har långa livscykler. Många korsningar slutar i oförutsägbara och ovälkomna egenskapskombinationer. Därför vill vi använda de biotekniska verktyg som de facto finns tillgängliga för att med ökad precision förbättra motståndskraften mot växtsjukdomar och öka näringsvärdet av kassava och potatis.Sverige och andra EU-länder har många bi- och multilaterala forsknings- och utvecklingssamarbeten med länder i Afrika söder om Sahara. Policyutvecklingen för forskning och tillämpning av växtbioteknik i dessa afrikanska länder har stor påverkan på möjligheten att bedriva denna typ av samarbeten, och det är därför ytterst viktigt att följa, och även stödja med hjälp av expertrådgivning, framväxten av dessa regelverk i Afrika söder om Sahara. Detta har även betydelse för en stabil livsmedelsförsörjning i många av dessa länder, eftersom internationell handel med jordbruksprodukter underlättas av harmoniserade regelverk.I detta förslag vill vi stärka både tekniska framsteg och policyer kring växtbioteknik i länderna söder om Sahara genom att ta itu med två huvudfrågor:1) Utvecklingen och kapacitetsuppbyggnad av växtbioteknik och speciellt genomredigering i SSA2) Jämföra skillnader och likheter inom växtbioteknikpolicyer mellan EU och Afrika.Genom att angripa dessa tre frågor räknar vi med att bidra med en kapacitetsuppbyggnad inom växtbioteknik i Afrika söder om Sahara.

Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Kenya Agricultural research Agriculture SE-0-SE-29-2018-04660_3-1 Sweden Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) with 70% of its population still living rural area is the region with the highest prevalence of undernourishment. To abolish hunger and feed a growing population without depleting natural resources, new ideas and tools are required. As part of sustainable agriculture, biotechnology can play a key role to improve food production in SSA. However, the limited biotechnical capacities and the current policy in many SSA countries for regulating these technologies hamper the realization of their full potential in the region.We therefore want to (i) improve knowledge-exchange and capacity building to better implement plant biotech in SSA, especially the emerging technique of genome editing, and (ii) explore the implications of converging and/or diverging plant biotechnology policies in the EU and Africa.We focus on cassava and potato, two important staple crops in SSA facing different challenges: Cassava is nutrient-poor and potato is easily devastated by late blight. Genome editing is a promising way to increase Provitamin A and combat vitamin A deficiency, affecting millions of people. Better late blight resistance would decrease yield-losses and fungicide use, and thus increase income while reducing impact farmers’ health.At the same time, it is important that biotech policies and regulations in SSA are supportive rather than restrictive or prohibitive. One contribution of this proposal is to increase the dialogue between researchers and policy-makers. Över stora delar av Afrika spelar jordbruket en central roll. Det stödjer landsbygden och är viktigt för ekonomisk tillväxt. Totalt bidrar jordbruket med nära 20% av kontinentens BNP och runt hälften av det totala värdet av all afrikansk export. Samtidigt har Afrika söder om Sahara för närvarande den högsta förekomsten av undernäring, och cirka 16% av den totala befolkningen saknar tillräckligt med mat.Tyvärr förväntas klimatförändringarna ha en mycket stor påverkan på produktionen inom jordbruket i Afrika söder om Sahara som redan är en av de fattigaste regionerna i världen med en osäker livsmedelsförsörjning. Till exempel uppskattar man att klimatförändringen 2080 kommer framtvinga en import av hela 143 miljoner ton spannmål, vilket är en enorm ökning från dagens cirka 7 miljoner ton. Behovet av att föda en växande befolkning på en allt mer begränsad landyta kommer att kräva nya verktyg för att påskynda utvecklingen av jordbruket.Vi tror att bioteknik kan spela en viktig framtida roll för att förbättra effektiviteten inom jordbruket och livsmedelsproduktionen på den afrikanska kontinenten. Hållbart jordbruk kombinerar ökad jordbruksproduktion och ekonomisk utveckling samtidigt som det främjar miljöskydd och en mer rättvis fördelning av inkomster. För att nå sin fulla potential, måste jordbruksbioteknik framgångsrikt införlivas i ett hållbart jordbruk. Med rätt användning kan det mildra en del av Afrikas kroniska problem såsom matbrist och brist på näringsrik mat. I det här projektet fokuserar vi på de viktiga stapelgrödorna kassava och potatis. Kassava odlas flitigt i Afrika eftersom den inte behöver näringsrika jordar och är relativt torktålig. Flera hundra miljoner människor är beroende av denna gröda för sin överlevnad idag. Potatis är också en mycket viktig stapelgröda, och har under de senaste 20 åren odlats i kraftigt ökande omfattning i Afrika. Men dessa grödor lider av två olika problem: kassavan är näringsfattig, särskilt när det gäller provitamin A, som är nödvändig för att motverka allvarliga bristsjukdomar, till exempel blindhet, medan potatisen lätt blir angripen av potatisbladmögel vilket leder till stora skördebortfall om den inte rikligt besprutas med bekämpningsmedel.Förbättrade sorter av dessa grödor är ofta det enda alternativ som resurssvaga odlare kan förlita sig på i ett mer lågintensivt jordbruk med små ekonomiska resurser att använda till gödning och bekämpningsmedel. Men att förädla kassava och potatis på traditionellt sätt är svårt, eftersom de är mycket genetiskt diversa och har långa livscykler. Många korsningar slutar i oförutsägbara och ovälkomna egenskapskombinationer. Därför vill vi använda de biotekniska verktyg som de facto finns tillgängliga för att med ökad precision förbättra motståndskraften mot växtsjukdomar och öka näringsvärdet av kassava och potatis.Sverige och andra EU-länder har många bi- och multilaterala forsknings- och utvecklingssamarbeten med länder i Afrika söder om Sahara. Policyutvecklingen för forskning och tillämpning av växtbioteknik i dessa afrikanska länder har stor påverkan på möjligheten att bedriva denna typ av samarbeten, och det är därför ytterst viktigt att följa, och även stödja med hjälp av expertrådgivning, framväxten av dessa regelverk i Afrika söder om Sahara. Detta har även betydelse för en stabil livsmedelsförsörjning i många av dessa länder, eftersom internationell handel med jordbruksprodukter underlättas av harmoniserade regelverk.I detta förslag vill vi stärka både tekniska framsteg och policyer kring växtbioteknik i länderna söder om Sahara genom att ta itu med två huvudfrågor:1) Utvecklingen och kapacitetsuppbyggnad av växtbioteknik och speciellt genomredigering i SSA2) Jämföra skillnader och likheter inom växtbioteknikpolicyer mellan EU och Afrika.Genom att angripa dessa tre frågor räknar vi med att bidra med en kapacitetsuppbyggnad inom växtbioteknik i Afrika söder om Sahara.

The present project addresses this important and unsolved question, with the overall aim to define the sensitivity of tropical tree species to heat and drought and to provide maps with tree plantation recommendations to relevant stakeholders in Rwanda and beyond. We will determine the functional tree traits (structural, hydraulic, physiological, biochemical) controlling tree vitality and survival in multi-species plantations established at three sites in Rwanda, “the land of thousand hills”. The sites exhibit large natural variation in precipitation and temperature, and experimental manipulations of water supply (irrigation, rainfall exclusion) will be imposed at each site. A multi-trait model of drought- and heat-induced tree mortality will be derived based on data from the experimental sites, and evaluated using independent data from additional sites with larger trees. Based on this model, we will produce and deliver maps with tree plantation recommendations to relevant stakeholders in Rwanda and the region. The scientific significance of the project is to address critical knowledge gaps regarding the causes of drought- and/or heat-induced mortality in tropical trees. The proposed project contributes to capacity building at Rwandan institutions, which will promote science-based and sustainable climate change adaptation in a low-income African country. Tropiska regnskogar är jordens mest artrika och produktiva ekosystemtyp (biom) och spelar en viktig roll för vår planets biodiversitet och klimat. Trots det vet vi förhållandevis lite om deras känslighet för pågående klimatförändringar. Ökad dödlighet under ovanligt varma och torra år (s.k. El Niño-år) tyder på att tropiska träd är mycket klimatkänsliga, men kunskapen om vilka processer som styr detta är begränsad. I många tropiska områden har stora arealer skog försvunnit och omvandlats till odlings- och betesmark. Detta leder till problem med erosion, biodiversitetsförlust, och ett varmare och torrare klimat. På många håll försöker man därför återplantera skog. Det finns då flera fördelar med att använda naturligt förekommande arter eftersom dessa oftast konsumerar mindre vatten och har högre biodiversitet och lägre risk för sjukdomsangrepp än exotiska snabbväxande arter (ofta Eucalyptus). En osäkerhetsfaktor som hämmar hållbar plantering av inhemska tropiska trädarter är att vi vet så lite om deras klimatkänslighet. Det övergripande syftet med detta projekt är att ta reda på vilka egenskaper och mekanismer som styr hur torrare och varmare förhållanden påverkar vitalitet och överlevnad hos olika tropiska trädarter. Baserat på denna kunskap kommer vi att ta fram kartor med rekommendationer för vilka inhemska trädarter som är lämpliga för plantering i olika delar av Rwanda, ett tätt befolkat och fattigt land där skogsåterplantering måste ske i samklang med jordbruket. I det här projektet studerar vi 5400 träd tillhörande 20 tropiska trädarter som naturligt växer i bergsregnskog eller i övergången mellan regnskog och savann i Rwanda, ”the land of thousand hills”. Vi använder planteringar på tre platser med stor variation i höjd över havet (1300-2400 m), nederbörd (850-1750 mm) och temperatur (14-21 °C). De högst belägna platserna ligger i bergsregnskog medan de lägsta ligger i områden som naturligt domineras av buskvegetation och som är varmare och torrare än de utvalda trädarternas naturliga miljöer. Ett steg nedåt i höjd för en viss art representerar ett möjligt framtida klimatscenarium (global uppvärmning). På tre platser kommer vi att manipulera vattentillgången genom att bevattna och/eller skärma av nederbörd; detta för att kunna separera effekter av temperatur och nederbörd. På alla platser kommer vi att plantera både så kallade pionjärarter (arter som snabbt kan kolonisera nya områden) och klimaxarter (arter som dominerar i skogar utan störningar). Vi kommer att studera 16 strukturella, hydrauliska, fysiologiska och biokemiska egenskaper som potentiellt styr hur trädens vitalitet och överlevnad påverkas av minskad vattentillgång och ökad temperatur. Trädens förmåga att anpassa dessa egenskaper till ett förändrat klimat kommer att bestämmas. Utifrån signifikanta samband mellan olika funktionella egenskaper och trädens känslighet för låg nederbörd och hög temperatur kommer en modell att tas fram som kan förutsäga tropiska träds klimatkänslighet utifrån kunskap om deras funktionella egenskaper. Modellen kommer att utvärderas med hjälp av oberoende mortalitetsdata från planteringar med större träd i olika delar av Rwanda. Eftersom modellen är egenskaps-baserad kommer den att kunna appliceras på andra arter än de som ingått i detta projekts planteringar. Inom projektet kommer modellen därför kunna användas för att ta fram kartor med rekommendationer för vilka inhemska trädarter som är lämpliga för plantering i olika delar av Rwanda. Projektet är ett samarbete mellan Göteborgs Universitet, University of Rwanda och Rwanda Agriculture Board som sedan flera år har ett samarbete inom skogsforskning, där även lärarutbyte och handledning av doktorander och studenter ingår. Projektet kommer att ta fram ny kunskap om olika tropiska trädarters klimatkänslighet och vilka underliggande trädegenskaper och mekanismer som styr denna. Dessutom kommer projektet att generera kartor med rekommendationer över vilka trädarter som är lämpliga för plantering i olika delar av landet. Dessa kartor kommer att levereras till relevanta Rwandiska avnämare, såsom ”Rwanda Forest and Water Institute” och ”Ministry of Natural Resources”. De kommer även att kommuniceras till avnämare i andra länder i regionen. Ett annat viktigt mål för projektet är att fortsätta bygga upp kompetensen inom skogsforskning i Rwanda, vilket gynnar forskningsbaserad och långsiktig klimatanpassning i ett fattigt land i Afrika.

This project will offer new insight into this question by examining whether poverty harms individuals psychological wellbeing which in turn may have large implications for their decision making and consequently their ability to escape poverty.  The aim of this project is three fold: 1) Understand whether poverty impacts the psychological outcomes of individuals in developing countries. 2) Investigate the impact of psychological outcomes on production and consumption decisions. 3) Study the impact of decision making on poverty. We will measure psychological outcomes using novel lab in the field experiments and surveys conducted in areas with an exogenous variation in poverty. This information will be matched with agricultural and consumption decisions. The field studies will be complimented with an analysis of the impact of poverty reduction policies on psychological outcomes. This will be the first research to empirically investigate the connection between poverty, psychological outcomes and production and consumption decision making. Thus, this project will improve our understanding of why people are poor, which, in turn provides the foundations needed to reduce poverty and achieve the SDGs. This project will commence in 2019 and include researchers in Sweden, the UK and Austria. Fattigdom sätts ofta i relation till inkomst, och låga inkomstnivåer resulterar i oförmåga att täcka grundläggande behov så som om mat, hem, utbildning och hälsovård. Fattigdomsfällan beskriver en mekanism som motverkar att människor kan ta sig ur fattigdom, exempelvis att avsaknad av inkomst gör att man inte kan utbilda sig själv eller att ge sina barn en utbildning. Ny forskning har fokuserat på de psykologiska aspekterna av fattigdomsfällan, och exempelvis har man funnit att fattigdom orsakar stress som i sin tur kan leda till kortsiktigt beslutsfattande. Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka de psykologiska aspekterna av fattigdomsfällan i utvecklingsländer. De psykologiska aspekterna av fattigdomsfällan har presenterats med följande samband. Fattigdom i sig påverkar psykologiska aspekter så som stress, leder till negativt tänkande och försämrar den kognitiva förmågan, vilket i sin tur påverkar val av produktionsmetoder hos jordbrukare och individers konsumtionsmönster. Dessa val påverkar sedan fattigdom, eller bredare uttryck individens välfärd.Det här projektet handlar om att förstå hur psykologiska aspekter orsakade av fattigdom påverkar val av produktionsmetoder och konsumtionsmönster, vilket sedermera påverkar fattigdom and och välfärd. Ett viktigt syfte är att vidareutveckla beteendeekonomiska insikter om mänskligt beteende i utvecklingsländer. Detta kommer i sin tur att påverka hur olika åtgärdsprogram bör genomföras, exempelvis hur skall ett program utformas för att uppmuntra jordbrukare att göra långsiktiga investeringar i sin jordbruksmark? Vi avser att utvidga litteraturen på tre olika delområden samt hur dessa delområden interagerar:Hur påverkar fattigdom psykologiska aspekter så som kognitiv förmåga?Hur påverkar psykologiska aspekter val av produktionsmetoder och konsumtionsmönster?Hur påverkar val av produktionsmetoder och konsumtionsmönster fattigdom och välfärd?Vår utgångspunkt är den beteendeekonomiska teorin och vi kommer främst att använda oss av hushållsundersökningar och ekonomiska experiment för att studera de tre ovannämnda delområdena.

Similarly, we will deliver the full training materials designed in conjunction with the PEN school network to the PEN schools foundation/administration. This will ensure that the training can be conducted again in the future. No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2018-04793-1 Sweden The question why some individuals are poor and have difficulty escaping poverty is a fundamental question that lies at the heart of the sustainable development goals (SDGs). This project will offer new insight into this question by examining whether poverty harms individuals psychological wellbeing which in turn may have large implications for their decision making and consequently their ability to escape poverty.  The aim of this project is three fold: 1) Understand whether poverty impacts the psychological outcomes of individuals in developing countries. 2) Investigate the impact of psychological outcomes on production and consumption decisions. 3) Study the impact of decision making on poverty. We will measure psychological outcomes using novel lab in the field experiments and surveys conducted in areas with an exogenous variation in poverty. This information will be matched with agricultural and consumption decisions. The field studies will be complimented with an analysis of the impact of poverty reduction policies on psychological outcomes. This will be the first research to empirically investigate the connection between poverty, psychological outcomes and production and consumption decision making. Thus, this project will improve our understanding of why people are poor, which, in turn provides the foundations needed to reduce poverty and achieve the SDGs. This project will commence in 2019 and include researchers in Sweden, the UK and Austria. Fattigdom sätts ofta i relation till inkomst, och låga inkomstnivåer resulterar i oförmåga att täcka grundläggande behov så som om mat, hem, utbildning och hälsovård. Fattigdomsfällan beskriver en mekanism som motverkar att människor kan ta sig ur fattigdom, exempelvis att avsaknad av inkomst gör att man inte kan utbilda sig själv eller att ge sina barn en utbildning. Ny forskning har fokuserat på de psykologiska aspekterna av fattigdomsfällan, och exempelvis har man funnit att fattigdom orsakar stress som i sin tur kan leda till kortsiktigt beslutsfattande. Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka de psykologiska aspekterna av fattigdomsfällan i utvecklingsländer. De psykologiska aspekterna av fattigdomsfällan har presenterats med följande samband. Fattigdom i sig påverkar psykologiska aspekter så som stress, leder till negativt tänkande och försämrar den kognitiva förmågan, vilket i sin tur påverkar val av produktionsmetoder hos jordbrukare och individers konsumtionsmönster. Dessa val påverkar sedan fattigdom, eller bredare uttryck individens välfärd.Det här projektet handlar om att förstå hur psykologiska aspekter orsakade av fattigdom påverkar val av produktionsmetoder och konsumtionsmönster, vilket sedermera påverkar fattigdom and och välfärd. Ett viktigt syfte är att vidareutveckla beteendeekonomiska insikter om mänskligt beteende i utvecklingsländer. Detta kommer i sin tur att påverka hur olika åtgärdsprogram bör genomföras, exempelvis hur skall ett program utformas för att uppmuntra jordbrukare att göra långsiktiga investeringar i sin jordbruksmark? Vi avser att utvidga litteraturen på tre olika delområden samt hur dessa delområden interagerar:Hur påverkar fattigdom psykologiska aspekter så som kognitiv förmåga?Hur påverkar psykologiska aspekter val av produktionsmetoder och konsumtionsmönster?Hur påverkar val av produktionsmetoder och konsumtionsmönster fattigdom och välfärd?Vår utgångspunkt är den beteendeekonomiska teorin och vi kommer främst att använda oss av hushållsundersökningar och ekonomiska experiment för att studera de tre ovannämnda delområdena. Vi planerar även ett större fältexperiment i Indien för att studera hur de tre delområdena interagerar över tiden. Sammantaget så är vår ambition att öka kunskapen om dessa samband vilket kommer att resultera i bättre åtgärdsprogram för fattigdomsbekämpning.

The collaborative program will support the efforts of the teams and sharing their expertise in two adjacent fields - synthesis and surface modification of metal oxide nanoparticles and mesoporous microparticles (with advanced experience in physicochemical characterization of surface binding of biologically active molecules) from the Swedish side and the synthesis and functionalization of mesoporous silica and silica-based nanocomposites (together with valuable experience of their implementation in water purification) from the Ukrainian side. The teams have developed recently a strong track of collaboration. Our specific aims: 1) Develop nanostructured adsorbents functionalized with both specific bio-ligands (enzymes) and coordinating ligands for simultaneous destruction of organic pollutants and uptake of hazardous heavy metal and radioactive species. 2) Evaluate their characteristics using wastewater samples modelling complex water systems generated by natural disasters of the type of Chernobyl and Fukushima catastrophe. The goals will be achieved through coordinated research uniting the efforts of specialists in materials synthesis, characterization and theoretical modelling.

Människor behöver vatten för att kunna dricka, laga mat, tvätta sig själva och sina kläder. Naturkatastrofer som resulterar från klimatförändringen och olyckor orsakade av människor, speciellt kärnkraftsolyckor som den i Chernobyl, och för några år sedan i Fukushima i Japan där naturen har bidragit till att kärnkraftsolyckan inträffat, skapar ohållbara situationer då allt tillgängligt vattnet blir kraftigt förorenat av organiskt avfall, radioaktiva ämnen, eller i värsta fall av dessa bägge i kombination. Ukraina lider fortfarande av konsekvenser av Chernobyl katastrofen som inträffade för strax över 30 år sedan och gjorde många annars tillgängliga vattenresurser obrukbara. Situationen i Östra Ukraina förvärras av pågående strider där reningsverk ofta blir skadade av beskytning. En stor utmaning för forskare som jobbar med reningsteknologier för att återskapa vattnets kvalité är att kunna hitta eller egentligen snarare skapa nya kostnadseffektiva reningsmaterial kapabla på rekordkort tid återställa de nödvändiga vattenresurserna. I sökandet efter lämpliga material kan man vända sig till två fungerande alternativ: antingen membranmaterial för att rengöra vatten genom filtrering vilket är relativt kostsammare och energikrävande eller försöka använda adsorbenter, material som suger in i sig de farliga föroreningarna och kan i vissa fall hjälpa till att destruera dem. Diverse adsorbenter används aktivt på reningsverk världen över redan idag, men utmaningen är att principiellt effektivisera och påskynda reningsprocessen. Man vill gärna att adsorbenter inte bara fångar de farliga föroreningarna som t.ex. radioaktiva isotoper, men även samtidigt hjälper till att bli av med farligt organiskt avfall. För att vara riktigt effektiva måste de således vara multifunktionella, kapabla att hjälpa till på flera olika sätt samtidigt. En annan principiell utmaning är att det tar rejält med tid att bli av med redan förorenade adsorbenter, avlägsna dem från vattnet som har blivit rent. Idag gör man det genom sedimentering, d.v.s. låter adsorbentpartiklar falla ner på botten av kärlet där vatten renas upp, och sedan häller ut det rengjorda vattnet. Man vill gärna påskynda processen utan att det behöver bli särskilt mycket dyrare. En principiell lösning som kan tas till vara är att skapa adsorbent partiklar med magnetiska egenskaper, så att man lätt ska kunna samla dem med en magnet (och även regenerera sedan genom att avlägsna de koncentrerade föroreningarna och återbilda det aktiva adsorbent materialet). Forskningsgrupperna i Sverige och Ukraina som står bakom detta projektförslag har på senare tid utvecklad mycket värdefull och kompletterande kompetens inom syntes, funktion och användning av komplexa adsorbenter som visar förmåga att effektivt ta bort radioaktiva föroreningar (Ukraina) och snabbt destruera organiskt avfall med hjälp av på adsorbenterna immobiliserade enzymer (Sverige). Bägge grupper har börjat aktivt experimentera med adsorbenter som har magnetiska egenskaper. Ytkemiska Institutet i Ukraina (Chuiko Institute of Surface Chemistry) är också den organisationen som i sitt land ansvarar för utvecklingen av vattenreningsteknologier som även ingår i SLUs ansvarsområde. Det är därför inte alls underligt att dessa bägge har kommit i kontakt med varandra för ett tag sedan och har utvecklat mycket framgångsrikt samarbete med stöd av SRL-programmet 2013-2016 som har resulterat i tydliga framsteg på vägen mot föreslagna mål. De har även tidigare i samarbete genomfört en NATO-stödd workshop ’Sol-Gel Materials for Pollution Control, Water Purification and Soil Remediation’ som ägde rum i Kiev i oktober 2007. Vidareutveckling av samarbete med stöd från VR kan leda till genombrott inom detta mycket viktiga område och göra stort bidrag till människors välstånd i Ukraina där ekonomiska situationen har starkt försvårats ytterligare på senare tiden, speciellt på mindre orter och på landsbygden där uppbyggnad av större konventionella reningsverk blir även i framtiden ekonomiskt ohållbart.

The innovativeness of the project lies in its paradox: viewing a conservative, patriarchal and masculine institution as a potential driver for gender equality in post-conflict societies. The project spans over three levels of analysis: taking off at a micro-level, the project adopts a military sociology perspective to analyze individual gender relations within the military institution through interviews and observation. Stepping up to a meso-level, studying the role of gender in post-conflict militaries, will enable comparisons and generalizations on an institutional level. Finally, on a macro-level, the project examines how the reform of the military in a post-conflict society could contribute to transform existing gendered hierarchies through the empowerment of women, thereby contributing to creating a gender-just peace. The project adds a new and under-researched perspective of the military as not only an institution characterized by continuity, conservatism and hierarchy, but also as a potential ‘agent of change’ for gender relations in a post-conflict society. It will generate new theoretical and empirical insights of utmost relevance when it comes to achieving sustainable peace and developmenet I länder som drabbats av väpnad konflikt är reformer av säkerhetshetssektorn ofta en del av fredsprocessen. Dels genomförs dessa reformer för att befolkningen ska få en ny tilltro till statliga aktörer med ett våldsmonopol, såsom polis och militär, dels genomförs de för att dessa institutioner effektivt ska kunna bidra till ett fredligt samhälle som styrs av transparens, ansvarsutkrävande och rättstatens principer. En aspekt av dessa reformer innebär att den militära institutionen öppnas upp för att inkludera underrepresenterade grupper inom armén, för att bättre återspegla samhällets mångfald. Tidigare forskning har påvisat att militären kan karakteriseras som en sluten, konservativ och starkt maskulin institution som har svårt för att acceptera förändringar och mångfald. Den spänning och utmaning som genusreformer av militären innebär ligger till grund för det föreslagna projektet som analyserar hur integrering av både genus- och jämställdhetsperspektiv fungerar i två konfliktdrabbade stater: Mali och Liberia.  Om man lyckas skapa mer jämställda relationer mellan kvinnor och män inom en konservativ och maskulin institution som militären, finns det möjlighet att överföra lärdomar från en sådan process till samhället i stort, där militären skulle kunna fungera som en förebild och en drivande aktör för ett mer jämställt samhälle. Forskning har redan tidigare visat att ett jämställt samhälle, där kvinnor och män har samma rättigheter och möjligheter, är en förutsättning för hållbar fred och utveckling. För ett konfliktdrabbat land bör just jämställdhet därför vara en av de första prioriteringarna i en hållbar fredsprocess. Det underliggande antagandet för detta projekt är därför att den reformerade och konfliktdrabbade militären skulle kunna fungera som en aktör för förändring av genusrelationer mellan kvinnor och män, inte bara inom armén, men även inom samhället i stort. Detta projekt studerar hur de konfliktdrabbade länderna Mali och Liberia har integrerat genus- och jämställdhetsperspektiv i sina militära institutioner. Genus förstås här som sociala konstruktioner av kön och avser förväntningar på, eller normer för, hur män och kvinnor bör bete sig. Detta projekt fokuserar både på genusintegration, och integration av kvinnor i armén mer specifikt. Fokuset på kvinnor beror på att just kvinnor är kraftigt underrepresenterade i militärer världen över, och som en konsekvens av detta är dessa institutioner starkt maskulina, i den bemärkelse att så kallade "maskulina egenskaper" som förknippas främst med män. Därmed tenderar sådant som fysisk styrka, mod, aggressivitet och rationalitet att priviligieras och lyftas fram före så kallade "feminina egenskaper" såsom empati, kommunikation och omtanke. Kvinnor har därför ofta upplevt könsbaserad diskriminering inom militära institutioner och sällan åtnjutit samma status och militära identitet som sina manliga kollegor. Reformer av den militära institutionen efter konflikt innebär en möjlighet att ändra på tidigare inlärda beteenden och sedvänjor och därmed även lägga grunden för en mer jämlik institution där både män och kvinnor får ta plats och där jämställdhetsperspektiv prioriteras. Vi avser att på mikro- meso- och makronivå studera förändringar av hur genus konstrueras i roller, praktiker och normer. Med avstamp på individ- och gruppnivå inom militären i Mali och Liberia, kartlägger vi i vilken utsträckning man har lyckats med att skapa genusintegration och jämställdhet inom den reformerade militären. På basis av dessa resultat går vi vidare och undersöker om dessa förändringar avspeglas på meso- och makronivå i respektive samhälle. Om vi ser att de förändrade genusmönsten på mikronivå återspeglas på högre nivå i samhället, kan vi dra slutsatser om att förändringar i genusstrukturer inom militären också kan påverka genusrelationer i samhället i stort. Denna studie är explorativ och använder olika kvalitativa tekniker för att spåra förändringar gällande genusintegrering och jämställdhet. Vi använder oss av semistrukturerade intervjuer med individer och fokusgrupper. Därutöver kommer vi att bedriva deltagande observationer på militärbaser i Mali och Liberia. Ett stort skriftligt material, bestående av allt ifrån policydokument, konstitutioner, "White papers" och förhandlingsprotokoll kommer även att granskas för att spåra möjliga förändringar i militärens och samhällets genusstrukturer från mikro-till makronivå.

Hence, sustainable intensification of crop productivity for food security and climate resilience is required. Ethiopia is an important genetic diversity center for crops such as field pea. Two types of field peas are grown in Ethiopia: Pisum sativum spp. sativum and P. sativum spp. abyssinicum (Dekoko), both having significant contribution to food and nutritional security. Dekoko, which is targeted in this project has been independently domesticated, cultivated and consumed as protein supplement to the cereal-based diets in Ethiopia. It plays an important role in supplying affordable protein to rural population and in improving soil fertility through nitrogen fixation. However, it is grown in few localities in Ethiopia and not much has been done to promote it as a contributor to food security. Hence, this project aimed at analyses of Dekko’s genetic diversity, association with nitrogen fixing symbionts and nutritional quality, and documenting its indigenous knowledge and socio-economic significance. The data to be generated will be used to develop a joint project for the improvement and sustainable use of Dekoko for its contribution to sustainable food security in Ethiopia and beyond. Etiopien är ett utvecklingsland där matförsörjningen fortfarande är en stor utmaning trots att landet är rikt på genetiska resurser, inklusive nära släktingar till våra odlade grödor, som är viktiga källor till vidare förädling. Etiopien består av många olika agroekologiska och agrogeografiska zoner där det traditionella jorbruk som utvecklats under årtusenden har gjort landet till ett viktigt primärt och sekundärt centrum för många odlade kulturväxter. Den periodvis försämrade tillgången på mat beror till stor del på det omoderna jordbruket. Småjordbruket står för ca 95% av födoämnestillgången och man använder fortfarande till stor del traditionella lantraser i produktionen.Baljväxter är universalgrödor som ger inkomst, försörjning och mat till småjordbrukaren. Dessa växter är ofta tåliga och kan relativt väl motstå både biotisk och abiotisk stress såsom torka, sjukdomar och insektsangrepp. Dessutom kan de fixera kväve genom symbios med kvävefixerande bakterier, en egenskap som är viktig för bönder som inte har råd med konstgödsel. Dessutom har de ett högt nutritionellt värde med hög proteinhalt. Baljväxterna kan därigenom balansera den huvudsakligen kolhydratrika diet som dominerar. I Etiopien odlas olika typer av baljväxter, t. ex. bondbönor och ärtor, och de utgör ett mycket viktigt bidrag till proteinförsörjningen för lantbruksbefolkningen och bidrar till att öka åkerjordens kvävehalt. Etiopien är ett av de genetiska centra som finns för ärta, Pisum sativum, och dess vilda släktingar. Idag är man Afrikas största producent av ärtor och den sjätte största producenten i världen. P. sativum ssp. abyssinicum (lokalt benämnd Dekoko) har sedan länge domesticerats och odlats i Etiopien. Tillsammans med den vanliga ärtan, P. sativum ssp. sativum, används den som proteintillskott till den cerealiebaserade dieten. Dekoko är mycket uppskattad för den goda smaken och betingar ett högt pris jämfört med vanliga ärtor. Tillgången är emellertid begränsad eftersom den endast odlas på få platser i norra Etiopien. Nyligen gjorda studier har visat att produktionen minskar pga sjukdomar och insektsangrepp.Trots dess betydelse har få studier av Dekoko gjorts. Genetiska studier med molekylära markörer har inte genomförts och växtförädlingsprogram saknas helt. Dess innehåll av olika näringsämnen, kvantitativt eller kvalitativt, har inte undersökts i någon större omfattning och dess socioekonomiska värde eller bevarandestatus har inte dokumenterats. Vi vill därför i det här projektet dokumentera den kunskap som finns om Dekoko och dess olika lantraser, deras socioekonomiska betydelse och hur Dekoko används. Genetiska diversitetsanalyser av Dekoko och dess symbionter kommer att göras med olika markörtekniker vid Addis Ababa University (AAU) och SLU.Det här projektet är till sin natur interdisciplinärt och involverar experter från olika discipliner vid SLU och AAU. Gemensamma workshops och seminarier kommer att anordnas som stärker banden mellan AAU och SLU för att även framledes kunna anta de utmaningar som möter utvecklingsländerna. Projektet kommer mer specifikt att skapa förutsättningar för ett fördjupat samarbete mellan de två länderna inom växtproduktion och förädling. Projektet passar väl in i Etiopiens prioriterade nationella policy för jordbruksforskning och Sveriges strategi för forskningssamarbete med utvecklingsländer. Det kommer också att bidra till en säkrare matproduktion och förbättrade levnadsomständigheter för resurssvaga bönder.

The research questions are: How do Master students experience an intervention based on meeting community members and social innovators for combating poverty?Does the intervention have an impact on the Master students’ research projects? How?Are there any gender differences with respect to the students’ approaches to community based learning and social innovations for combating poverty? The research team will collect interview data (n=12) and survey data (n=100) from the students to analyze the outcomes of the intervention. Thus it is expected that the students will come up with research projects relevant to poverty reduction. The project will be carried out by researchers in Sweden, Kenya and Uganda. The African researchers will execute the intervention and data collection in continuous dialogue with the Swedish PI. Qualitative and statistical analyses will be conducted by the Swedish and Kenyan PIs. The African researchers will distribute the results to educational leaders at seminars in Uganda/Kenya. All researchers will be involved in article writing, and in a joint research application to VR/Development research in 2020.The project will promote the impact of development research from Kenya, Uganda, and Sweden, and it may also lead to new policies and curricula in East African postgraduate education for reducing poverty. Kenya och Uganda tillhör de fattigaste länderna i världen och det finns ett stort behov av att bekämpa deras fattigdom. I det här Swedish-Links-projektet kommer vi att därför att genomföra en intervention i Masterutbildningen vid två afrikanska universitet, ett i Kenya och ett i Uganda.  Interventionen går ut på att samhällsvetenskapliga studenter under en workshop får träffa både lokalbefolkningen och sociala innovatörer för att tillsammans diskutera konkreta problem som är kopplade till fattigdom i deras region. Efter diskussionen får studenterna sedan fundera över hur de skulle kunna forska på dessa problem för att på sikt komma fram till hållbara lösningar.Masterutbildningen är tvåårig och studenterna genomför egna forskningsprojekt under det sista året. Tanken är att interventionen ska trigga studenterna att fundera ut och genomföra forskningsprojekt som är relaterade till att minska fattigdom genom sociala innovationer. Med sociala innovationer menas att både medel och mål är sociala (exempelvis service och handel), till skillnad från tekniska innovationer som vanligen kopplas till industriella produkter. I vårt projekt är vi nyfikna på om interventionen har någon betydelse för studenterna i detta avseende och om det finns några könsskillnader när det gäller inriktningen på deras forskningsprojekt.Vi kommer att intervjua 12 studenter som har deltagit i interventionen för att ta reda på hur de upplevde workshopen och om de har blivit inspirerade att utforma forskningsprojekt som är relaterade till att bekämpa fattigdom genom sociala innovationer. Om det finns intervjupersoner som inte har valt det spåret i sitt forskningsprojekt kommer vi att undersöka varför. Baserat på intervjuresultaten formulerar vi sedan en enkät som skickas ut till samtliga studenter (ca 100 personer) som deltagit i interventionen. Enkäten syftar till att visa på generella tendenser i studentgruppen. När intervjuerna och enkäterna analyseras kommer särskild vikt att läggas vid eventuella könsskillnader och om interventionen har haft betydelse för studenternas forskningsprojekt.Vårt team består av utbildningsforskare i Sverige, Kenya samt Uganda och innebär att ett nytt forskningssamarbete etableras mellan länderna. Under Swedish-Links-projektets gång kommer vi att resa till varandras lärosäten för att diskutera arbetet och utbyta kunskaper om villkoren för studenters lärande. Vi kommer också att ha många virtuella möten över Internet för att hålla dialogen vid liv. Resultaten som genereras i projektet kommer att spridas till utbildningsledare i Kenya och Uganda, samt publiceras i en internationell vetenskaplig artikel. Vi förväntar oss också att projektet ska generera nya forskningsfrågor som kan leda till större gemensamma forskningsprojekt inom en snar framtid. Ambitionen är således att vårt projekt ska leda till ett långvarigt forskningssamarbete som kan stärka svenskt utvecklingssamarbete och utvecklingen i Östafrika.Den forskning som kommer att bedrivas i Swedish-Links-projektet är viktig av flera skäl. Dels berör projektet tre av de globala målen för hållbar utveckling: (1) Ingen fattigdom, (2) God utbildning för alla, och (3) Jämställdhet.  Dels skapas ett konkret underlag för att utveckla Masterutbildningen i Östafrika som på sikt kan bidra till att uppfylla dessa mål med särskild tonvikt vid att reducera fattigdom. Resultatet kan även vara relevant för andra utvecklingsländer som står inför liknande utmaningar. Dessutom bidrar projektet till den internationella forskningsfronten eftersom det för närvarande saknas studier som specifikt belyser relationen mellan innovativ forskning, genus och studenters lärande i utvecklingsländer.

This proposal will expand the implementation research arm of SPARKS by 1) Developing a common framework and protocol to evaluate health and social protection interventions 2) Developing and growing a collaborative SPARKS network between institutions/organizations in South East Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and North America to facilitate action research on social protection 3) Building social protection action research capability in the network’s identified institutions and beyond and 4) Identifying, drafting and submitting joint funding applications and publications within the network on social protection action research for tuberculosis, and other communicable and non-communicable diseases. The collaboration will be conducted democratically with the participation of partners from Mozambique, Uganda and Vietnam. The funding is sought for two years, during which the collaboration will hold two face-to face-meetings, and at least four research clinics (online journal clubs) for early career researchers. In addition, relevant online courses from each partner will be opened for participation for all the other partners. Online tools will be used to work on joint proposals. The collaboration will contribute to global goals and further implementation science in social protection and health. Solidariskt finansierad och heltäckande sjukvård av hög kvalitet (Universal Health Coverage - UHC) ligger högt på den globala hälsoagendan. Att nå det i alla länder världen över är ett av de högst prioriterade globala målen för hållbar utveckling inom Agenda 2030 (SDGs). Sådana sjukvårdssystem ska säkerställa såväl tillgång till optimal vård som att katastrofala sjukvårdskostnader undviks för personer som drabbas sjukdom. Detta är en nödvändig men inte tillräcklig komponent av fattigdomsbekämpning och sociala skyddsnät. Utöver minimering av sjukvårdskostnader krävs även en heltäckande socialförsäkring som kan kompensera för inkomstbortfall och andra indirekta kostnader kopplade till ohälsa och sjukvårdsutnyttjande.   Många länder stärker sina system för att skydda sin befolkning från förödande privata sjukvårdsutlägg, men system för skydd mot inkomstbortfall och andra kostnader släpar efter betydligt. Ansvaret för sådana system vilar på både sjukvården och socialsektorn. I termer av Agenda 2030 krävs en tydlig koppling mellan mål 1 (fattigdomsbekämpning och sociala skyddsnät) och mål 3 (god hälsa, inklusive UHC), och därmed tvärsektoriellt arbete mot katastrofala sociala och ekonomiska konsekvenser av ohälsa.   Forskningsnätverket SPARKS (health and social protection action research & knowledge sharing network) etablerades 2016 för att stärka interdisciplinär forskning på detta område. Till en början har detta nätverk fokuserat på socioekonomiska konsekvenser av tuberkulos. Tuberkulos är den infektionssjukdom som dödar flest människor i världen, ca 1,7 miljoner dör varje år. Sjukdomen är vanligast bland de fattigaste i fattiga länder, och den leder ofta till såväl stort fysiskt lidande och död som grava sociala och ekonomiska konsekvenser för patienter och anhöriga. Inkomstbortfall är den viktigaste faktorn till ekonomiska problem, och få tuberkulosendemiska länder har bra sociala skyddsnät för personer som drabbas. Forskning behövs för att utveckla lämpliga system, såväl för tuberkulospatienter som för andra som drabbas av fattigdomsrelaterade sjukdomar.I detta projekt kommer vi att vidareutveckla och sprida SPARKS, i synnerhet med fokus på att höja kapaciteten för interventionsforskning kring sociala skyddsnät vid sjukdom. Projektet har följande målsättningar:  1) Utveckla ett gemensamt ramverk och riktlinjer för att utvärdera sociala interventioner för personer som drabbas av sjukdom och funktionsnedsättning.2) Utveckla och fortsätta växa ett SPARKS nätverket för att facilitera implementationsforskning inom sociala skyddsprogram vid  ohälsa, med fokus på institutioner och organisationer i Sydostasien, Afrika, Europa och Nordamerika3) Bygga kapacitet inom implementationsforskning både på institutioner inom nätverket och utanför.4) Identifiera och ansöka om finansiering inom SPARKS nätverket med fokus på implementationsforskning kring tuberkulos och andra fattigdomsrelaterade smittsamma och icke smittsamma sjukdomar.Samarbetet kommer utföras jämlikt och demokratiskt med aktivt deltagande av involverade partners från låg- och medelinkomstländer, framför allt Mocambique, Uganda och Vietnam. Finansieringen söks för två år, och samarbetet inkluderar två fysiska möten, närvaro på ett stort internationellt SPARKS-möte, samt minst fyra webbaserade ”research clinics” för doktorander och juniora forskare. Online kurserna kommer att vara tillgängliga för alla SPARKS partners. Online-verktyg kommer även användas för att kunna arbeta på gemensamma ansökningar och artiklar. Samarbetet kommer bidra på innovativt sätt till att skapa synergier och nya interdisciplinära och tvärsektoriella samarbeten kring hälsomålet och fattigdomsbekämpningsmålet inom Agenda 2030.

I termer av Agenda 2030 krävs en tydlig koppling mellan mål 1 (fattigdomsbekämpning och sociala skyddsnät) och mål 3 (god hälsa, inklusive UHC), och därmed tvärsektoriellt arbete mot katastrofala sociala och ekonomiska konsekvenser av ohälsa.   Forskningsnätverket SPARKS (health and social protection action research & knowledge sharing network) etablerades 2016 för att stärka interdisciplinär forskning på detta område. Till en början har detta nätverk fokuserat på socioekonomiska konsekvenser av tuberkulos. Tuberkulos är den infektionssjukdom som dödar flest människor i världen, ca 1,7 miljoner dör varje år. Sjukdomen är vanligast bland de fattigaste i fattiga länder, och den leder ofta till såväl stort fysiskt lidande och död som grava sociala och ekonomiska konsekvenser för patienter och anhöriga. Inkomstbortfall är den viktigaste faktorn till ekonomiska problem, och få tuberkulosendemiska länder har bra sociala skyddsnät för personer som drabbas. Forskning behövs för att utveckla lämpliga system, såväl för tuberkulospatienter som för andra som drabbas av fattigdomsrelaterade sjukdomar.I detta projekt kommer vi att vidareutveckla och sprida SPARKS, i synnerhet med fokus på att höja kapaciteten för interventionsforskning kring sociala skyddsnät vid sjukdom. Projektet har följande målsättningar:  1) Utveckla ett gemensamt ramverk och riktlinjer för att utvärdera sociala interventioner för personer som drabbas av sjukdom och funktionsnedsättning.2) Utveckla och fortsätta växa ett SPARKS nätverket för att facilitera implementationsforskning inom sociala skyddsprogram vid  ohälsa, med fokus på institutioner och organisationer i Sydostasien, Afrika, Europa och Nordamerika3) Bygga kapacitet inom implementationsforskning både på institutioner inom nätverket och utanför.4) Identifiera och ansöka om finansiering inom SPARKS nätverket med fokus på implementationsforskning kring tuberkulos och andra fattigdomsrelaterade smittsamma och icke smittsamma sjukdomar.Samarbetet kommer utföras jämlikt och demokratiskt med aktivt deltagande av involverade partners från låg- och medelinkomstländer, framför allt Mocambique, Uganda och Vietnam. Finansieringen söks för två år, och samarbetet inkluderar två fysiska möten, närvaro på ett stort internationellt SPARKS-möte, samt minst fyra webbaserade ”research clinics” för doktorander och juniora forskare. Online kurserna kommer att vara tillgängliga för alla SPARKS partners. Online-verktyg kommer även användas för att kunna arbeta på gemensamma ansökningar och artiklar. Samarbetet kommer bidra på innovativt sätt till att skapa synergier och nya interdisciplinära och tvärsektoriella samarbeten kring hälsomålet och fattigdomsbekämpningsmålet inom Agenda 2030.

The extent of the wheat blast outbreak in Bangladesh was considerable and rapid, with 15,000 hectares affected between February to March 2016, and is estimated to have affected at least 45,000 farmers, the majority of whom are resource-poor smallholders. Most importantly this first introduction of a highly virulent form of MoT, in heavily populated South Asia represents a serious threat not only for Bangladesh, but also for regional food security in S. Asia, home to 300 million undernourished people and whose inhabitants consume over 100 million tons of wheat each year. The speed by which MoT however spread across Bangladesh in 2016 was alarming, indicating that if blast were to further spread in South Asia, inaction to mitigate the disease could lead adversely affect the food and income security of over a billion people. There is thus an urgent need to characterize these isolates to identify their morphology, virulence, fungicide resistance and genome evolution at various geographical locations. This work which includes disease surveillance, marker development and participatory trials would help researchers and breeders to identify solutions for the sustainable wheat production in the region in presence of this new highly virulent pathogen. This will be critical to avoid a major potential disaster. Den globala matproduktionen kommer att fortsätta kräva ökade skördar med hög kvalitet samtidigt som miljöpåverkan och energitillförsel måste minska. För att nå dessa mål måste grödor ha ökad resistens mot växtskadegörare och insekter samt kunna anpassas till abiotiska faktorer med bibehållen hög produktkvalitet. Nya utmaningar som den globala uppvärmningen, växtskadegörare i ständig förändring och en föränderlig miljö har ökat behovet av att ta fram nya utsäden som kan bidra till ett hållbart jordbruk. Blast i vete orsakad av Magnaporthe oryzae pathotype Triticum (MoT) har blivit ett allvarligt hinder för veteproduktionen i de varmare delarna av Sydamerika. Sjukdomen har påverkat upp till 3 miljoner hektar och kan orsaka 10 till 100% skördeförlust.I februari 2016 skedde ett utbrott av MoT i Bangladesh – det första utbrottet utanför Sydamerika. Det skedde snabbt och i stor omfattning. 15 000 hektar drabbades mellan februari och mars 2016, och utbrottet beräknas ha påverkat åtminstone 45 000 bönder, de flesta är resurssvaga småbrukare. Detta första utbrott av MoT i det tätbefolkade södra Asien utgör inte bara ett allvarligt hot för Bangladeshs invånare, utan också för hela den regionala livsmedelsförsörjningen i Sydostasien som redan har 300 miljoner undernärda människor och vars invånare konsumerar mer än 100 miljoner ton vete per år.Hastigheten med vilken MoT kom att sprida sig över Bangladesh 2016 var alarmerande, vilket indikerar att sjukdomen snabbt kan komma att sprida sig vidare i södra Asien på grund av globala uppvärmingen. Situationen är allvarlig och en passivitet i hantering av MoT riskerar utebliven livsmedelsförsörjning och inkomst för över en miljard människor. Det är därför angeläget att snabbt karakterisera olika så kallade isolat av MoT för att bestämma deras morfologi, virulens, motstånd mot bekämpningsmedel och eventuella skillnader i arvsanlagen beroende på vilken plats de kommer från.Detta arbete som omfattar så kallad PathoGenomics, markörutveckling, screening av motstånd och odlarförsök kommer att hjälpa forskare och veteförädlare att utveckla nya sorter som är resistenta mot växtskadegöraren och därigenom undvika ett större utbrott och en potentiell katastrof.De resistenta vetesorter som kommer utvecklas i detta projekt kommer att ge odlare säkrare avkastning med minskad risk för skördeskador och även minska användningen av fungicider. Sammantaget kommer detta att bidra till att förbättra livet för fattiga bönder och bidra till mer hållbara jordbruksmetoder. Våra odlarförsök kommer att involvera odlare av båda könen och främja jämställdhet.Medarbetarna i detta projekt har kompetens inom vetepatologi, bioinformatik, molekylärbiologi och växtförädling.

Most importantly this first introduction of a highly virulent form of MoT, in heavily populated South Asia represents a serious threat not only for Bangladesh, but also for regional food security in S. Asia, home to 300 million undernourished people and whose inhabitants consume over 100 million tons of wheat each year. The speed by which MoT however spread across Bangladesh in 2016 was alarming, indicating that if blast were to further spread in South Asia, inaction to mitigate the disease could lead adversely affect the food and income security of over a billion people. There is thus an urgent need to characterize these isolates to identify their morphology, virulence, fungicide resistance and genome evolution at various geographical locations. This work which includes disease surveillance, marker development and participatory trials would help researchers and breeders to identify solutions for the sustainable wheat production in the region in presence of this new highly virulent pathogen. This will be critical to avoid a major potential disaster. Den globala matproduktionen kommer att fortsätta kräva ökade skördar med hög kvalitet samtidigt som miljöpåverkan och energitillförsel måste minska. För att nå dessa mål måste grödor ha ökad resistens mot växtskadegörare och insekter samt kunna anpassas till abiotiska faktorer med bibehållen hög produktkvalitet. Nya utmaningar som den globala uppvärmningen, växtskadegörare i ständig förändring och en föränderlig miljö har ökat behovet av att ta fram nya utsäden som kan bidra till ett hållbart jordbruk. Blast i vete orsakad av Magnaporthe oryzae pathotype Triticum (MoT) har blivit ett allvarligt hinder för veteproduktionen i de varmare delarna av Sydamerika. Sjukdomen har påverkat upp till 3 miljoner hektar och kan orsaka 10 till 100% skördeförlust.I februari 2016 skedde ett utbrott av MoT i Bangladesh – det första utbrottet utanför Sydamerika. Det skedde snabbt och i stor omfattning. 15 000 hektar drabbades mellan februari och mars 2016, och utbrottet beräknas ha påverkat åtminstone 45 000 bönder, de flesta är resurssvaga småbrukare. Detta första utbrott av MoT i det tätbefolkade södra Asien utgör inte bara ett allvarligt hot för Bangladeshs invånare, utan också för hela den regionala livsmedelsförsörjningen i Sydostasien som redan har 300 miljoner undernärda människor och vars invånare konsumerar mer än 100 miljoner ton vete per år.Hastigheten med vilken MoT kom att sprida sig över Bangladesh 2016 var alarmerande, vilket indikerar att sjukdomen snabbt kan komma att sprida sig vidare i södra Asien på grund av globala uppvärmingen. Situationen är allvarlig och en passivitet i hantering av MoT riskerar utebliven livsmedelsförsörjning och inkomst för över en miljard människor. Det är därför angeläget att snabbt karakterisera olika så kallade isolat av MoT för att bestämma deras morfologi, virulens, motstånd mot bekämpningsmedel och eventuella skillnader i arvsanlagen beroende på vilken plats de kommer från.Detta arbete som omfattar så kallad PathoGenomics, markörutveckling, screening av motstånd och odlarförsök kommer att hjälpa forskare och veteförädlare att utveckla nya sorter som är resistenta mot växtskadegöraren och därigenom undvika ett större utbrott och en potentiell katastrof.De resistenta vetesorter som kommer utvecklas i detta projekt kommer att ge odlare säkrare avkastning med minskad risk för skördeskador och även minska användningen av fungicider. Sammantaget kommer detta att bidra till att förbättra livet för fattiga bönder och bidra till mer hållbara jordbruksmetoder. Våra odlarförsök kommer att involvera odlare av båda könen och främja jämställdhet.Medarbetarna i detta projekt har kompetens inom vetepatologi, bioinformatik, molekylärbiologi och växtförädling. Projektets medarbetare är både nationella och internationella aktörer och utgör en stark forskargrupp med ett långsiktigt mål att minska kemisk bekämpning inom jordbruket.

Tuberculosis (TB) co-exists with other NCDs, including diabetes mellitus (DM). Smoking increases the risk of both TB and DM. Health systems in many LMICs are ill-prepared and currently facing the “triple burden of smoking, TB, and DM”, which drives these countries into the vicious cycle of poverty. We will create the stakeholder network and link researchers and policymakers to discuss enablers and barriers and develop models for the integration of TB, DM, and tobacco control programs at primary health care centres, district, provincial, and national levels. We will conduct formative research using realist evaluation, concept mapping, and social network analysis to guide the model developments. The collaboration envisaged in the project between Sweden, India and Indonesia will help to identify priority areas and strategies for integration of TB, DM, and tobacco control in LMICs, which can be modified and applied in the context of a developed country (Sweden). Project activities include workshops, discussions with stakeholders, data analysis, paper and proposal writing during 2019-2020. This research link project will enhance research capacity and competence of researchers in four universities in India and Indonesia for designing and conduct implementation research to strengthen the health systems. Många låg-och medelinkomstländer (LMIC) står inför både bördan av infektionssjukdomar och den framväxande bördan av kroniska sjukdomar, vilket orsakar mycket lidande för patienterna, familjemedlemmar, samhället, och nationen. Tuberkulos (tbc) är fortfarande en vanlig dödsorsak. Samtidigt blir kroniska sjukdomar som diabetes allt vanligare i befolkningen. Tbc samexisterar ofta med många andra sjukdomar, däribland diabetes. Undersökningar har visat att rökning kan öka risken för både tbc och diabetes. Därför står många av de fattiga länderna nu inför den så kallade tredubbla bördan av rökning, tuberkulos och diabetes, som driver dessa länder in i den onda cirkeln av fattigdom. Hälso-och sjukvårdssystem i LMIC är inte väl förberedda och klarar inte av denna tredubbla börda. Världshälsoorganisationen har nyligen påkallat behovet av åtgärder för att möta den tredubbla bördan av tbc, diabetes och tobak i LMIC. Indonesien är ett av dessa prioriterade länder, där tbc och rökning är mycket vanligt, och diabetes ökar snabbt. Detta forskningssamarbete kommer att bidra till att utveckla strategier för implementering av integrerade interventionsmodeller inom primärhälsovården för att ta itu med den tredubbla bördan av tbc, diabetes, och tobak. De huvudsakliga aktiviteterna i detta projekt är worskhops, seminarier, diskussioner med nyckelaktörer, gemensam dataanalys och skrivande av forskningsansökningar. Under tvåårsperioden kommer vi att bygga samarbeten och utbyta erfarenheter i implementeringsforskning mellan fyra universitet och institutioner i Indien och Indonesien. Från början av projektet, kommer vi att skapa ett nätverk mellan forskare, beslutsfattare och hälsoarbetare för att diskutera och utveckla modeller för integrering av tuberkulos, diabetes och program för tobakskontroll inom primärvården samt diskutera utmaningar för implementering på distriktsnivå, provinsiell och nationell nivå. Vi kommer att genomföra en kartlägga den befintliga informationen om tuberkulos, diabetes, och tobakskontroll program i Indien och Indonesien. Vi kommer då att utföra (1) en realist utvärdering för att identifiera hinder och möjligheter för integrering av de befintliga programmen i båda länderna; (2) ”concept mapping” för att kartlägga aktiviteter som kommer att leda till en lyckad integration, samt identifiera potentiella hinder och begränsningsstrategier; och (3) social nätverksanalys för att bedöma aktörers roller i de olika hälsoprogram och illustrera deras samspel och beskriva beslutsprocessen. Resultaten av dessa studier kommer visa hur man bäst implementerar en integrerad modell vård för tuberkulos, diabetes och tobak i Indien och Indonesien. Betydelsen av detta samarbetsprojekt kan ses på tre nivåer. På akademisk nivå, kommer detta projekt att skapa nya forskningssamarbeten som leder till en långsiktig utveckling av parternas vetenskapliga resurser och kompetenser speciellt av implementeringsforskning för kontroll av kroniska sjukdomar och infektionssjukdomar inom primärhälsovården. På politisk nivå, kommer detta projekt att bygga en ömsesidig och hållbar relation mellan forskare och beslutsfattare i de båda länderna för att stödja integrerad och effektiva interventioner inom primärhälsovården. På befolkningsnivå, kommer detta projekt att ta itu med evidensbaserade integrerade insatser för en rättvis fördelning av resurserna i syfte att minska den tredubbla bördan av tbc, diabetes och rökning. Denna börda som oproportionerligt påverkar fattiga och utsatta befolkningsgrupper i Indien och Indonesien. Det finns underliggande gemensamma hinder inom hälso-och sjukvården för både prevention och vård av kroniska sjukdomar och infektionssjukdomar. En förbättrad integration av planering och genomförande av hälsoprogram för de två sjukdomsgrupperna kommer göra det lättare att överbrygga dessa hinder. Potentiella synergier och fördelar med integrerad vård av tbc och diabetes är att etablera den bästa vården av patienterna, optimalt utnyttja tillgängliga resurser och kombinera förebyggande strategier. Förebyggande strategier kan utgöras av fattigdomsbekämpning, skapande av hållbara miljöer, förbättrad hälsokommunikation och utbildning. Detta samarbetsprojekt förväntas vara av stor praktisk betydelse för global hälsa eftersom det är i linje med den framväxande agendan för hälsomål post 2015 som kommer att fokusera på att stärka primärhälsovård och reducera kroniska sjukdomar i låg och medelinkomstländer.

Evidence- informed programmatic/policy action, which is currently lacking in Myanmar, is needed to break the cycle. The aim of this project is to explore determinants that influence and shape ageing and older adult lives – from their life choices, to their local environment, to the services they access – and how these come together to affect their wellbeing, care needs and utilization. This research project will employ a mixed methods design using a follow-up quantitative study and qualitative study to understand the intersection of ageing, poverty, gender and functioning in Myanmar. We will follow-up individuals who participated in the 2012 Myanmar Aging Survey and conduct panel data analysis to analyse how health and its determinants of a large group of older people have changed over time. Focus-group discussions and interviews will be conducted to further explore local, contextual perceptions of ageing and how the health system is responding to care needs. The results of this project can be used to understand what drives health and health inequalities in different groups of older people and build on this scientific knowledge to inform the National Health Plan and National NCD Strategic Action Plan (2017-21) in order to improve older people health in this resource-constrained setting. Som en av de fattigaste länderna i världen uppgick Myanmars bruttonationalprodukt till 1.195 dollar per capita år 2016 (jämfört med Sverige som har 51.844 US-dollar per capita). Landet har ett Gini-index på 38,1, vilket innebär stor ojämlikhet mellan rika och fattiga. 2016 var Myanmar det fattigaste landet i Sydostasien då 6,5% av befolkningen levde på mindre än 1,90 dollar per dag (extrem fattigdom); detta trots några år av hög ekonomisk tillväxt efter valet 2010/12. Fattigdom och dålig hälsa följs vanligtvis åt i en cykel, där det ena förstärker det andra. Dessutom drabbas ofta kvinnor och äldre hårdare av både fattigdom och ohälsa där de sociala skyddsnäten är svaga. I Myanmar består 51% av de totala hälsoutgifterna av egenavgifter, vilket innebär att hushåll och familjer riskerar att få katastrofala hälsoutgifter när de drabbas på sjukdom. Samtidigt som landet fortfarande kämpar mot infektionssjukdomar som tuberkulos, malaria och hiv, blir också kroniska, icke-smittsamma sjukdomar (NCD) som hjärt-kärlsjukdomar, stroke, diabetes och cancer allt vanligare. NCD kan leda familjer och samhällen till en fattigdomscykel, som sedan blir ett allvarligt hot mot utvecklingen och landets förmåga att uppnå de hållbara utvecklingsmålen (SDG).En av de främsta utmaningar som många fattiga länder som Myanmar står inför är brist på befolkningsbaserade hälsodata på hög nivå på nationell nivå, vilket är nödvändigt för att få ett underlag för politikiska(hälso) beslut på nationell nivå. Varje FN-medlemsstat behöver också stor mängd data för att mäta framsteg på SDG. Att förankra SDG på nationell nivå är fortfarande en stor utmaning. Myanmar har dock angripit detta på ett ganska unikt sätt  då man upprätthåller sina egna nationella mål men samtidigt också införlivar och sammanställer SDG: s mål (# 3) i sin nuvarande nationella hälsoplan för 2017-2021. Man har även utarbetat en strategisk handlingsplan för NCD (även 2017 -2021) som innehåller en uppsättningar delmål som förbättrar chansen att uppnå 2030 målen för hälsa för alla.Syftet med detta projekt är att utforska de bestämningsfaktorer som påverkar och formar äldre människors liv i Myanmar - från det sätt de väljer att leva, sin lokala miljö och de tjänster de har tillgång till - och hur dessa sammanfaller och påverka deras hälsa, ekonomiska välbefinnande, samt hälsovårdsbehov och utnyttjande. Projektet har tre specifika mål för att uppfylla det övergripande målet, nämligen att: (i) Analysera könsbaserad och socioekonomisk ojämlikhet i hälso- och sjukvårdsutnyttjandet bland äldre i Myanmar. (ii) undersöka förändringar i äldre människors livsförhållanden och hur dessa förändringar och kontextuella faktorer påverkar deras hälso- och vårdutnyttjande; och (iii) identifiera hinder och möjligheter för att främja ett jämlikt hälso- och sjukvårdsutnyttjande  för äldre i nöd i Myanmar. Detta forskningsprojekt kommer att använda en mixad metoddesign med hjälp av en uppföljande kvantitativ enkätstudie i kombination med kvalitativa intervjustudier för att förstå dynamiken mellan åldrande, fattigdom, kön och hälsa i Myanmar. Vi kommer att följa upp personer som deltog i 2012 Myanmar Aging Study och genomför en paneldataanalys för att analysera hur hälsan och dess bestämningsfaktorer för en stor grupp äldre har förändrats över tid. Fokusgruppsdiskussioner bland äldre kommer att genomföras för att ytterligare utforska lokala, kontextuella uppfattningar om åldrande och hälsa. Fördjupade intervjuer med vårdgivare på olika nivåer kommer att göras för att undersöka hur hälsosystemet svarar mot vårdbehoven hos  äldre.Resultaten av detta projekt kan användas för att förstå vad som driver ohälsa och hälsa för olika grupper av äldre människor; kunskap som kan användas som underlag för Myanmars nationella hälsoplan och den nationella strategiska handlingsplanen för NCDs (2017-21) för att förbättra äldre människors hälsa i denna resursbegränsade kontext. Genom detta projekt kommer vi att bidra till kunskap om vad som behövs för utvecklingslandet av en inkluderande social- och hälso-politik för att främja ett sunt åldrande och kunna angripa den onda cirkeln av fattigdom och ohälsa. Denna kunskap är särskilt betydelsefull i Myanmar -  ett land som genomgår snabba ekonomiska och hälsoövergångar och där hälsosystemen  både ekonomiskt och tekniskt är oförberedda för att klara av konsekvenserna av dessa.

Currently, there are no drugs available for the treatment of this disease except those which treat the symptoms. With increased welfare and aging population Alzheimer’s disease shows a pandemic development also in the third world. There is an urgent need for efficient and cheap diagnostic tools that can be used in the field, outside main hospitals, to screen large populations. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) for brain imaging is currently the most commonly used diagnostic technique for Alzheimer’s disease, which, however, is very expensive and involves the exposure of the body to high energy radiation. It is also possible to diagnose the disease and monitor its progress by measuring the loads of amyloid beta plaques and NFTs in collected samples of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Therefore, as an alternative to PET, one can use optical imaging biomarkers on collected samples of CSFs to estimate the population of amyloid andtau fibrils that are associated with AD. This requires only a cheap hand-held optical equipment. In this proposal, we aim to optimize optical fluorescent probes with high affinity and specificity for amyloid and tau fibrils and so to contribute to a high-throughput Alzheimer’s diagnostic tool for the developing countries. Det goda med enzymer och proteiner i människokroppen är att de kan utföra många reaktioner och styra livsviktiga processer såsom lagring och frigörelse av energi, andning, reproduktion och mycket annat. Till deras dåliga sidor hör att de inte alltid formerar sig till de naturliga tillstånd som är nödvändiga för deras funktion. I stället kan de bilda strukturer som leder till sjukdomar. Det finns mer än 30 oika sjukdomar som orsakas av sådana strukturellaförändringar i proteiner. Alzheimers sjukdom är en sådan neurodegenerativ sjukdom och svarar för 60-70% av demensfallen hos människor. Den förknippad med aggregation, dvs ihopklumpning, av s.k. amyloid betaprotein och tauprotein. Med sjukdomsutvecklingen störs kommunikationen mellan neuronerna i hjärnan av olösliga plack av betaproteiner. Ansamlingar av tauproteiner Inom neuronerna försvagar mikrostrukturerna och stör näringstransporten vilket leder till att neuronen dör. Det finns en stark korrelation mellan mängden amyloid beta och tau fibriller i hjärnan och Alzheimers sjukdom och genom att övervaka fibrill belastningen kan sjukdomsutvecklingen följas. Vanligen används PET-spårämnen för detta ändamål (positron emissions kameror). Problemet är att PET-spårämnen inte är specifika och att de har en begränsad bindningsförmåga genemot fibrillerna. En annan aspekt av Alzheimers sjukdom vi ämnar studera är möjligheten att utnyttja terapeutiska molekyler. Även om diagnos av Alzheimers sjukdom har varit lyckosam med hjälp av PET-spårämnen finns det ännu ingen medicin för att bota denna sjukdom. De tillgängliga medicinerna kan bara mildra symptomen förknippade med sjukdomen. Sålunda avser vi också studera möjligheten att lösa upp amyloid- och taufibrillerna med speciella ämnen som tillsätts så de kan elimineras från hjärnan. Även om det har rapporterats om flera fibrillförstörande molekyler i in-vitro experiment så förblir mekanismen för fibrillers lösningsförmåga oförstådd. Vår avsikt är här att ge insikt på mikroskopisk nivå som kan användas för rationell design av fibrillförstörande molekyler för terapeutiskt bruk. Förutom att bidra till diagnostiska PET-spårämnen och terapeutiska fibrillförstörande molekyler, avser detta projekt att bidra till förståelse av de mer fundamentala aspekterna av aggregation av amyloidbildande proteiner. Det finns många sådana proteiner,såsom amyloida betaprotein och tauprotein, synuklein, amylin, superoxiddismutas, Huntingtons protein och prionprotein som är kända för att vecka sig till sekundär betastrukturer som tenderara att aggregera. Vi avser alltså att utröna bakgrunden till sådana tendenser hos dessa proteiner att bilda aggregat. Dessutom, för att designa strukturbaserade PET-spårämen är det nödvändigt att känna till målfibrillets struktur. Förutom amyloid-betafibrillerna, är strukturerna inte kända vilket kan förklaras av de olösliga och icke-kristallina egenskaperna hos dessafibriller. Vi kommer att använda kraftfältsbaserade modeller för att beräkna strukturerna hos dessa fibriller. I synnerhet, för design av nya PET-spårämnen för tau-visualisering är detta nödvändigt. Därefter, för att testa specificiteten hos PET-spårämnen, behöver man studera deras växelverkan med andra fibriller. Fibrillstrukturerna som vi får från våra modellstudier av andra amyloidbildande proteiner kommer att användas för detta ändamål. Sammafattningsvis - vi kommer att bidra till alla tre aspekter av Alzheimers sjukdom, nämligen grunderna föraggregation, diagnos och terapi. Vi avser att studera processerna för aggregationsbildning av de amyloidbildande proteinerna och föreslå strukturer för deras oligomerer och fibriller. Genom att använda dessa strukturer, så ämnar vi designa målspecifika PET-spårämnen med hög affinitet. Vidare kommer vi att designa molekyler vilka kan användas för att lösa upp amyloid- och taufibriller som sedan kan frigöras från cellerna. För modellering av aggregaten använder vi oss av molekyldynamik. För beräkningen av bindningsaffiniteterna kommer tillförlitligheten hos nuvarande beräknigsverktyg för molekylär dockning och molekylmekanik, i kombination med kvantmekanik och s.k. generaliserad Born-area metod, att utvärderas och lämpliga förbättringar kommer att göras föra att öka deras noggrannhet och förutsägbarhet av experimentella konstanter. Vi tror att vårt projekt kan ge ett synligt bidrag till grundförståelse såväl som till praktiska resultat i form av mät-molekyler av relevans för Alzheimers sjukdom.

Earlier interventions to address mental health consequences of IPV in high-income settings have poor transferability in LMICs since they require specialists and treatment durations that are unaffordable. To address this, WHO has developed a brief behavioural intervention called Problem Management Plus (PM+) for IPV victims.We plan a cluster randomised trial to assess the effectiveness of PM+ in Nepal with high prevalence of both IPV and poor health outcomes among women. A total of 72 health centres (clusters) (N=1420 individual women) will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio providing PM+ versus standard care (control). There will be three data collection points over 18 months preceded by formative research to adapt the PM+ module to the local context. Qualitative interviews will explore feasibility and acceptability among service providers and participants.

Qualitative data will be thematically analyzed.This trial will contribute real-life evidence of scalability for informed decision-making by providing innovative large-scale evidence of task-shifting mental health service provision to lower cadre workers, for more affordable, culturally acceptable and effective management to mitigate the huge unmet need in IPV-exposed women in this region. Könsbaserat våld (intimate partner violence, IPV) är ett mycket vanligt problem världen över med en rad negativa hälsoeffekter såsom psykisk ohälsa (tex ångest, depression, missbruk), sexuellt överförbara infektioner samt fysiska ibland dödliga skador förutom de sociala och känslomässiga konsekvenserna.I Nepal har mer än var fjärde kvinna utsatts för våld (sexuellt, fysiskt eller psykiskt) av sin partner. Regionala variationer i förekomsten visar dock att könsbaserat våld går att förebygga.Existerande interventioner för att motverka och behandla psykiska problem hos kvinnor utsatta för våld kräver ofta ett stort antal sessioner utförda av specialister något som även medför höga kostnader. Att erbjuda hjälp till de kvinnor som lider av psykiska konsekvenser efter könsbaserat våld är därför ofta svårt i låg- och medelinkomstländer pga den begränsade tillgången till psykiatriska specialister och serviceinrättningar.För att ta itu med dessa utmaningar har WHO utvecklat ett kort beteende-inriktat behandlings-program ”Problem Management Plus (PM +), som innefattar 5 sessioner för att minska vanliga psykiska störningar hos vuxna. Via en stor kluster-randomiserad studie design ämnar vi implementera denna studie i en provins i sydöstra Nepal med dåliga utfall inom samtliga hälsoindikatorer för kvinnor och barn som en hög andel tonårsgraviditeter, hög spädbarnsdödlighet, hög mödradödlighet, och låg vaccinationstäckning samtidigt som många kvinnor utsätts för våld av sin partner.Vi randomiserar (lottar) 1420 kvinnor på 72 olika hälsocenter (tex mödravård) till antingen interventions- eller kontrollarmen: 710 får PM + och 710 får standardvård (samt kontaktinformation om de behöver mer stöd). För att komma runt den stora bristen på specialistutbildad personal i Nepal kommer vi att utbilda hälsopersonal med kortare utbildning för att de ska kunna screena och identifiera kvinnor 18-49 år som utsatts för våld och erbjuda dem deltagande i studien efter informerat samtycke.  Denna PM+ tränade personal kommer sedan enligt ett strukturerat system att lotta kvinnorna till antingen interventionsgruppen inklusive fem sessioner av PM +. De kommer också att lära sig att hänvisa till specialistvård om det behövs. Kontrollgruppen kommer å andra sidan att få träffa hälsopersonal som genomgåt en 1-dagsutbildning i att screena för våld och i att hänvisa utsatta kvinnor till tillgängliga supporttjänster efter behov. Effekten av interventionen kommer att mätas genom skillnaden mellan interventions-gruppen och kontrollgruppen i fråga om i psykiska problem, stigma och våldsförekomst mätt med validerade frågeformulär vid tre tidpunkter (Jan 2020, maj 2020, jan 2021). Kvalitativ datainsamling kommer också att utföras bland slumpmässigt utvalda kvinnor för att förstå deras utmaningar och reflektioner kring sessionerna. Vi kommer även att intervjua hälsoarbetare och beslutsfattare före och efter interventionen för att förstå och övervinna hinder för studieimplementering och senare storskalig spridning.  Att förebyggande våld mot kvinnor och flickor är nyckelfråga för FNs hållbarhetsmål nr 5 (SDG 5) kring jämställdhet. Många av dessa så kallade SDG mål är direkt relaterade till kön, eftersom få ekonomiska, sociala, politiska eller ekologiska problem är könsneutrala. Denna studie kan få positiva följdverkningar långt utöver den akademiska världen och fyller ett stort behov bland miljontals kvinnor utsatta för IPV i Nepal.Genom att bedöma acceptansen och effektiviteten av denna intervention PM+ i Nepal, bidrar vi med värdefull information till nepalesiska beslutsfattare för ett mer evidens-informerat beslutsfattande. Att använda sig av lägre utbildad tillgänglig personal i PM+ tror vi kan göra denna intervention mycket mer genomförbar i resurssvaga länder än befintliga program och möjliggöra spridning för att förbättra tillgången för många fler kvinnor över hela Nepal och andra liknande länder i samma region.

It is based on interviews with up to fifty individuals who have worked in international development and humanitarian aid from the 1960s until today.  The aim of this research to investigate Sweden as a case study through (1) documenting the individual experience of Swedish engagement in global health, with a focus on development and humanitarian aid, research, activism and practice (2) analysing Swedish global health engagement within a wider geopolitical context (3) analysing the relationship between Swedish global health engagement and domestic challenges (4) examining the development, articulation and promotion of Swedish norms and values in global health engagement.Although Sweden is one of the most significant global health donor countries, its role has not been fully examined in international scholarship. This project will investigate Sweden’s global health history, through oral history interviews representing voices from civil society, government and the research community.  The interviews will be recorded and made available in a public archive.  The research findings will also be disseminated through workshops, peer-reviewed articles and popular science publications.While focused on the past, this project will address current challenges in development cooperation and humanitarian assistance by providing historically-informed insights on contemporary policy and practice. Medan Sverige är en av de största bidragivarna till utvecklingssamarbete och humanitärt bistånd, har landets roll förbisetts i internationell forskning inom global hälsa. Forskningsprojekt är det första projektet om global hälsa i ett svenskt sammanhang och med ett perspektiv på muntlig historia (oral history). Muntlig historia är ett brett metodologiskt och teoretiskt begrepp som används av många discipliner, inklusive etnologi, antropologi, sociologi och historia. I projektet kommer metoden att användas för att analysera inspelade intervjuer om individers personliga erfarenheter av att jobba med global hälsa. Det kan handla om minnen av händelser, åsikter och perspektiv på dessa erfarenheter och händelser. Medan en aspekt av muntlig historia är att dokumentera det förflutna, är det också viktigt att undersöka hur individer tolkar och berättar sina berättelser i ett bredare socialt, kulturellt och politiskt sammanhang.Jag kommer att intervjua individer som har arbetat med internationell utveckling och humanitärt bistånd från 1960-talet fram till idag. De organisationer jag kommer arbeta med är, till exempel, Riksförbundet för sexuell upplysning (RFSU), Läkare utan gränser (MSF), Styrelsen för internationellt utvecklingssamarbete (Sida) Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) och andra svensk forskningsinstitut. Upp till femtio personer kommer att intervjuas, som representerar mångfaldiga röster och erfarenheter. Intervjuerna kommer att spelas in på video, redigeras och görs tillgängligt i ett offentligt arkiv. Forskningsresultaten kommer också att spridas genom workshops, peer-reviewed artikel och populärvetenskapliga publikationer. En kortfilm kommer också att produceras för användning i global hälsoutbildningSyftet med forskningsprojektet är att sammanställa en överblick av Sveriges roll inom global hälsa genom att (1) Dokumentera den individuella erfarenheten av svenskt engagemang i global hälsa, med fokus på utveckling och humanitärt bistånd, forskning, aktivism och praktik (2) Analysera svenskt globalt hälsoperspektiv inom det bredare sammanhanget av transnationella och globala hälsorörelser, (3) Analysera förhållandet mellan svenskt globalt hälsoperspektiv och inrikes hälsopolitik (4) Undersök utvecklingen, artikuleringen och främjandet av svenska normer och värden i globalt hälsoperspektiv och (5) bidra till en global medicinsk humanistisk forskningsmiljön.Även om projektet har ett fokus på det förflutna, kommer projekt att bidra till nuvarande utmaningar inom utvecklingssamarbete och humanitärt bistånd. Till exempel kan tidigare innovativa policyalternativ som inte har genomförts/implementerats, återupptäckas, och presenteras för dagens utmaningar. Det kan handla om projekt som inte var tekniskt eller politiskt genomförbara när det begav sig. Metoden muntlig historia, särskilt som den används inom antropologisk och etnologisk forskning, kan utvecklas för att få syn på dessa bortglömda projekt. De dagliga relationerna mellan enskilda forskare, beslutsfattare, stödmottagare och personal "på marken" har förmedlat dessa relationer, har förbisetts i befintlig forskning men kan ge inblick i global hälsa idag. Vad som också förbisetts i tidigare forskning är hur olika identiteter, som kön, har påverkat och påverkas av dessa relationer.Värdet av detta projekt är också att presentera en viktig fallstudie om Sverige för internationell forskning. Sverige har en lång tradition att vara en betydande givare, som varit det första landet som mötte 0,7-målet på officiellt utvecklingsbistånd på 1970-talet. Denna tradition fortsätter idag eftersom Sverige bidrar till utvecklingssamarbete och humanitärt bistånd. Men i de flesta internationella forskningsstudier om global hälsopolitik och politik nämns Sverige endast i fotnoter. Praktiskt taget inget internationella forskning har undersökt Sveriges roll i global hälsa - en lucka som denna forskning kommer att ta itu med. Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Developing countries, unspecified Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2018-05266-1 Sweden This is the first large scale oral history project on global health in a Swedish context. It is based on interviews with up to fifty individuals who have worked in international development and humanitarian aid from the 1960s until today.  The aim of this research to investigate Sweden as a case study through (1) documenting the individual experience of Swedish engagement in global health, with a focus on development and humanitarian aid, research, activism and practice (2) analysing Swedish global health engagement within a wider geopolitical context (3) analysing the relationship between Swedish global health engagement and domestic challenges (4) examining the development, articulation and promotion of Swedish norms and values in global health engagement.Although Sweden is one of the most significant global health donor countries, its role has not been fully examined in international scholarship. This project will investigate Sweden’s global health history, through oral history interviews representing voices from civil society, government and the research community.  The interviews will be recorded and made available in a public archive.  The research findings will also be disseminated through workshops, peer-reviewed articles and popular science publications.While focused on the past, this project will address current challenges in development cooperation and humanitarian assistance by providing historically-informed insights on contemporary policy and practice. Medan Sverige är en av de största bidragivarna till utvecklingssamarbete och humanitärt bistånd, har landets roll förbisetts i internationell forskning inom global hälsa. Forskningsprojekt är det första projektet om global hälsa i ett svenskt sammanhang och med ett perspektiv på muntlig historia (oral history). Muntlig historia är ett brett metodologiskt och teoretiskt begrepp som används av många discipliner, inklusive etnologi, antropologi, sociologi och historia. I projektet kommer metoden att användas för att analysera inspelade intervjuer om individers personliga erfarenheter av att jobba med global hälsa. Det kan handla om minnen av händelser, åsikter och perspektiv på dessa erfarenheter och händelser. Medan en aspekt av muntlig historia är att dokumentera det förflutna, är det också viktigt att undersöka hur individer tolkar och berättar sina berättelser i ett bredare socialt, kulturellt och politiskt sammanhang.Jag kommer att intervjua individer som har arbetat med internationell utveckling och humanitärt bistånd från 1960-talet fram till idag. De organisationer jag kommer arbeta med är, till exempel, Riksförbundet för sexuell upplysning (RFSU), Läkare utan gränser (MSF), Styrelsen för internationellt utvecklingssamarbete (Sida) Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) och andra svensk forskningsinstitut. Upp till femtio personer kommer att intervjuas, som representerar mångfaldiga röster och erfarenheter. Intervjuerna kommer att spelas in på video, redigeras och görs tillgängligt i ett offentligt arkiv. Forskningsresultaten kommer också att spridas genom workshops, peer-reviewed artikel och populärvetenskapliga publikationer.

Poverty and related socio-economic factors in Nepal have caused a huge increase in the multidrug resistant Escherichia coli (MDREC). Combating ´antibiotic resistance´ needs ´rational treatment´ - that requires early detection of the pathogen.What will be done:  We aim to develop a point-of-care diagnostics for the MDREC strains in clinical isolates from two hospitals (Manmohan Memorial and Kathmandu Model Hospital) in Nepal. The Nepalese team led by Dr. Basista P. Rijal and Dr. Basudha Shrestha will isolate DNA from the clinical isolates and ship to Sweden. The Swedish team led by Prof. Suparna Sanyal, will employ shotgun sequencing (at Sci-life Lab) and bioinformatics to identify species- and strain-specific biomarkers. DNA microchips will be developed for PCR or RPA based solid detection of MDREC.Mode of Collaboration: We will conduct two joint meetings each year, consisting of workshops and seminars. Experts from the antibiotic field will be invited. The researchers from Nepal will visit Uppsala 2-3 months / year. The Swedish researchers will spend 2 - 3 weeks in Nepal every year. The project will end with an international conference in Nepal.Impact: This project will aid in eradication of the antibiotic resistance problem. Junior researchers and students will receive technical and pedagogic training. If successful, this project will have a positive impact on the socio-economic status of Nepal. När vi blir sjuka av en bakterieinfektion skriver läkare ut antibiotika. Antibiotika är kraftfulla läkemedel som botar infektioner genom att antingen döda eller sakta ner bakteriers tillväxt. Den första naturliga antibiotikan som upptäcktes var penicillin, den uppräcktes 1928 av Alexander Flemming. Sen dess har ett stort antal olika antibiotika upptäckts. Antibiotika revolutionerade sjukvården under 1900-talet och ledde till att många allvarliga infektionssjukdomar som tuberkulos utrotades i industriländer. Antibiotikans effektivitet och lättillgänglighet ledde dock till överanvändning, framförallt inom jordbruket. Detta leder till att fler och fler bakterier utvecklar resistens mot antibiotika. Antibiotikaresistens är ett globalt problem men för närvarande är situationen allvarligast i utvecklingsländer.Många strategier har föreslagits för att lösa detta växande problem. Vetenskapsmän letar efter både naturligt förekommande och syntetiska nya antibiotika men hittills har detta varit en mycket långsam process. En viktig strategi för att minska utvecklingen av antibiotikaresistens är att minska felanvändning av antibiotika (som att ta antibiotika för en förkylning eller influensa), eller faktiskt att minska användningen av antibiotika överlag. Detta kräver snabb diagnostik för bakterieinfektioner så att den orsakande bakteriestammen kan identifieras och rätt antibiotika skrivas ut till patienten. Detta skulle leda till kortare behandlingar och att mindre oanvänd antibiotika släpps ut i miljön.Snabba diagnostikmetoder är under intensiv utveckling både inom akademin och industrin. Målet är att orsaken till en infektion ska kunna bestämmas snabbt och enkelt, helst redan under det första läkarbesöket. Med dagens teknik tar en sådan bestämning dock flera timmar även med de absolut snabbaste metoderna. Det finns således ett stort behov av snabbare test som tar under en timme. Utvecklingen inom mikrofluidik och chipbaserade metoder ger oss hopp om att en sådan teknik inte är omöjlig inom den nära framtiden. Ett stort biologiskt problem är dock bristen på s.k. biomarkörer – egenskaper hos en bakterie som kan detekteras och användas för att unikt identifiera just den sortens bakterier. Vissa stammar eller vissa typer av antibiotikaresistens kan identifieras av närvaron av specifika proteiner, tex. enzymet carbapenamase, men i de flesta fallen finns det inga unika markörer.I det här projektet är vårt mål att upptäcka genetiska biomarkörer för patogena bakterier från två sjukhuser i Nepal (Manmohan Memorial Medical College Teaching Hospital and Kathmandu Model Hospital). Fattigdom och andra socioekonomiska faktorer i Nepal har orsakat en betydande ökning av infektioner orsakade av multidrugsresistenta Escherichia coli (MDREC). Behandling av patienter med dessa typer av infektioner skulle hjälpas stort av identifiering av lämpliga biomarkörer. Vi planerar att analysera genomiskt DNA från kliniskt relevanta bakteriestammar från sjukhus i Nepal. Den Nepalesiska forskningsgrupper, lokaliserad i Kathmandu, har stor erfarenhet av isolering och karaktärisering av MDR bakterier. De kommer att isolera genomiskt DNA från dessa bakteriestammar och skicka det till Sverige för analys. Den svenska gruppen, led av professor Suparna Sanyal som designade det här projektet, kommer att använda s.k. shotgun-sekvensering (mha Sci-Life laboratoriet) och avancerad bioinformatik för att identifiera DNA sekvenser som är unika för dessa antibiotikaresistenta bakteriestammar. Dessa unika sekvenser kommer sedan att valideras som potentiella biomarkörer för dessa typer av antibiotikaresistens i de här bakteriearterna.De två forskargrupperna kommer att mötas varje kvartal för att diskutera och utbyta kompetens mellan forskare och studenter. Världsledande experter kommer att bjudas in för att genomföra seminarier om projektämnet och de deltagande forskarna från Nepal kommer att ackommoderas i Sanyallabbet i Uppsala i två till tre månader. Om det här projektet lyckas kommer det att lägga grunden för större projekt i framtiden för snabb diagnostisering av antibiotikaresistenta bakterier och således vara en del i lösningen av det globala problemet med antibiotikaresistens. Vi anser att vi genom det här projektet kan ha en positiv effekt på den socioekonomiska situationen i Nepal.

Biochar has shown great capacity for small scale wastewater treatment and its production is an effective measure for climate change mitigation and renewable energy production. Adoption of new technologies, e.g. biochar-based technologies, for effective wastewater treatment depends on early engagement of different stakeholders during the development of the technology. Identification of technical and market readiness and understanding the social-institutional forces affecting onsite wastewater sector are necessary steps for developing innovations within the sector. This project will explore the effectiveness of multi-actor engagement in planning for adoption of biochar-based systems as an alternative treatment for wastewater in small communities in Bolivia. The project will investigate the technical and market readiness of biochar-based wastewater treatment systems as an alternative to existing non-functioning systems. It will also explore the socio-technical dynamics influencing selection of wastewater systems in small communities Bolivia. In addition, the project will develop, test and assess serious gaming as a planning tool facilitating sustainable planning of onsite wastewater systems. The project will contribute to meeting the sustainable development goals 6, 11 and 16 regarding clean water and sanitation, sustainable cities and communities, and strong institutions. I världen pågår vad som kallas en sanitet kris och som utgör en av vår generations största utmaningar. Världshälsoorganisationen uppskattar att 2,4 miljarder människor i världen saknar tillgång till en bra toalett och att 1 miljard människor lever i storstädernas slumområden där de sämsta vatten- och sanitetsförhållandena råder. Dålig och obefintlig rening av avloppsvatten leder till allvarliga risker för människors hälsa genom spridning av vattenburna sjukdomar och orsakar övergödning av vattendrag och sjöar. Experter menar att storskalig övergödning är ett allvarligt hot mot en hållbar framtid på vår jord och varnar för att vi behöver hårdare kontroll av flödena av övergödande ämnen som kväve och fosfor.Renat avloppsvatten är en viktig resurs som kan motverka dålig vattentillgång och minskad jordbruksproduktion till följd av den pågående klimatförändringen. Detta är av stor betydelse för länder som Bolivia, som lider av svår vattenbrist och med sanitetsproblem. Således finns ett akut behov av att utveckla små anpassningsbara lösningar för lokal avloppsvattenrening. Utveckling av hållbara hantering för små avloppsreningssystem kräver engagemang av olika aktörer tidigt under design- och utvecklingfasen. Identifiering av lämplig teknik, marknadsberedskap och förståelse för de sociala och institutionella krafterna som påverkar sektorn är nödvändigt för att utveckla nya innovationer inom sektorn.Biokol är en produkt som produceras genom pyrolys (upphettning utan syre) av organiskt material t.ex. trä. Biokol kan produceras lokalt med enkel teknik såväl i Bolivia som låginkomstländ. Biokol kännetecknas av hög porositet och stor yta med många ytaktiva bindningsplatser. Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet (SLU) har studerat användning av biokol i småskaliga avloppsvattenanläggningar för att minska utsläpp av olika sorters avloppsföroreningar, t.ex. syreförbrukande ämnen, växtnäringämnen, patogener, läkemedelsrester och högfluorerade ämnen. Resultaten visar att biokolet är ett lovande material för små avloppsanläggningar. Dessutom innefattar biokolproduktion en framtida teknik för förnybar energiproduktion.Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka hur olika aktörers engagemang påverkar planeringen av biokolsbaserade system som ett alternativ för små avloppsreningssystem i  Bolivia. Dessutom syftar projektet till att utveckla, testa och utvärdera ett spel som ett verktyg for planering av små hållbara avloppssystem. Detta projekt består av tre delar. Under första delen kommer vi undersöka möjligheterna för biokolssystem att minska sjukdomsspridning, miljöpåverkan samt dessa systems marknadspotential. Detta kommer studerats genom att använda kvantitativ mikrobiell riskanalys och livscykelanalys. I den andra delen undersöker vi hur samhällsinstitutionella krafter påverkar val av teknik för små och enskilda avloppssystem. Detta kommer att ske genom intervjuer och gruppdiskussioner. Slutligen kommer ett spel att utvecklas som ett verktyg för att föra flera aktörer tillsammans i en planeringsprocess.  Spelet, som kommer att ha formen av ett brädspel, kommer att hjälpa aktörer att utforska nya tekniker för små avlopp, både i fysisk infrastruktur och i förvaltningsorganisationer. Under de två sista etapperna i projektet kommer forskarna att arbeta nära med lokala aktörer i kommuner i Bolivia för att förankra resultat i verkligheten.Resultaten från projektet kommer att publiceras som artiklar både i vetenskapliga och populära tidskrifter. Forskarna kommer att utnyttja sina etablerade nätverk av forskarkontakter och kontakter med lokala myndigheter i Bolivia för att sprida kunskapen producerad inom projektet. Kunskapen kommer också att inkluderas i kurser som handlar om små avloppsystem inom utbildningsprogram med inriktning mot vatten- och miljöteknik vid SLU.

They are also inhabited by deeply impoverished populations. People in the Himalayan landscapes have long lived in contexts of chronic structural risks generated by climate change and deeper socio-political factors in Nepalese society. One strategy has been large collective and individual labour investments in the landscape. This research will investigate such long term landscape investments in order to understand how people’s landscape use and economic and social structures are mutually constituted with very different outcomes for different social groups in a hierarchical society such as Nepal.

Bergsområden har en central betydelse för flertalet ekosystemtjänster och är mycket viktiga för den biologiska mångfalden. De är dessutom ofta bebodda av människor som är både fattiga och socialt marginaliserade. Dessa befolkningar har över generationer anpassat sig till den utsatta miljö de lever i och har lärt sig att hantera de många miljömässiga risker som det innebär att leva i bergslandskap. Resiliens kan beskrivas som den långsiktiga förmågan hos ett system att hantera förändringar och fortsätta att utvecklas. Detta forskningsprojekt handlar specifikt om vad resiliens innebär för småskaliga bönder som lever på bergssidorna i den så kallade Mid-Hill-regionen i Nepal. Vi avser att undersöka vilka strategier och praktiker bönderna använder för att hantera de risker de kan möta i sin vardag, framförallt genom de långsiktiga investeringar de gör i det landskap de lever i. Det kan till exempel handla om att bygga terrasser, bevattningsanläggningar och att bruka skogsområden för specifika ändamål. Många av bergsbönderna är mycket fattiga och deras handlingsalternativ är därför ofta väldigt begränsade. Det är mycket viktigt att undersöka vilken rörelsefrihet befolkningen har för sina handlingar (så kallad agens) och hur denna rörelsefrihet påverkas av och begränsas av de ekonomiska och sociala strukturerna i samhället.De nepalesiska bergsområdena drabbas av regelbundet återkommande naturkatastrofer som jordbävningar, jordskred och översvämningar. De globala klimatförändringarna har ökat risken för sådana katastrofer, samtidigt som vädret blivit allt mer oberäkneligt. Befolkningens förmåga att hantera risker i jordbruksproduktionen utsätts därmed för stora påfrestningar. Samtidigt sker även stora ekonomiska och sociala förändringar på den nepalesiska landsbygden. Den främsta av dessa är den stora ökningen av människor som emigrerar från bergsområdena på kort och lång sikt, både till inhemska städer och till utlandet, främst Mellanöstern och Malaysia. Den kanske viktigaste komponenten i de långsiktiga landskapsinvesteringarna i landskapet består av arbetskraft och när stora mängder män migrerar så innebär detta med all sannolikhet att förmågan att bruka marken och investera i landskapet förändras. Detta kan ha stor inverkan på hushållens förmåga att hantera risk och det är också troligt att deras strategier för att minska risker förändras. Denna fråga är dock ännu inte särskilt beforskad.Detta forskningsprojekt avser att studera och jämföra tre skilda bergslandskap i Nepal, vilka ligger på olika höjdnivåer. Syftet är att undersöka hur de pågående ekologiska, ekonomiska och sociala förändringarna påverkar småbrukarnas strategiska och kontinuerliga investeringar i odlingslandskapet. Avsikten är att utforska hur böndernas föreställningar om risker påverkar deras investeringar i landskapet, om och hur strategier skiljer sig mellan olika sociala grupper (så som klass, kast, etnicitet, genus) och hur dessa föreställningar och strategier påverkar böndernas matsäkerhet, deras långsiktiga förmåga att hantera förändringar och hur deras agerande i sin tur påverkar landskapet..Forskningen kommer att baseras på etnografiska och agro-ekologiska metoder, bestående av deltagande observation, olika former av intervjuer och fältvandringar tillsammans med bönder och andra aktörer. Projektet kommer att pågå mellan 2019-2021. De första sex månaderna är vikta åt förberedelse och resten av tiden görs fältarbete, analys och skrivande. Forskningsgruppen består av tvärvetenskapliga forskare med lång erfarenhet av forskning om utvecklingsproblematik, bergslandskap, odlingssystem och sociala förändringsprocesser.Det är av synnerlig vikt att förstå hur människor i bergsområden agerar och investerar i landskap för att både kunna försörja sig och gardera sig mot miljöförändringar och katastrofer. Sådan kunskap är avgörande för att stödja småbrukares möjligheter till försörjning och kan bidra till att formulera mer skräddarsydd och riktad utvecklingspolitik, samt skapa projekt för att uppnå hållbar utveckling och en uthållig användning av naturresurser.

The extent of pesticide exposure and associated health effects among populations in LMICs is not established. The aim of this project is to evaluate how climate change and intensified use of pesticides affect pesticide exposure and health in humans, including susceptible groups. We will create a new international research collaboration bringing together studies of pesticide exposure and health outcomes in populations from LMICs around the world affected by climate change. The populations include mother-child pairs from Bangladesh and Costa Rica, children from South Africa and agricultural workers from Uganda, El Salvador and Nicaragua. We will use the expertise in biomarker analyses at Occupational and Environmental Medicine (OEM) in Lund to monitoring pesticide exposure in the populations. Exposure will be analyzed in relation to health effects relevant to pesticide exposure (e.g. respiratory effect, neurodevelopment and chronic kidney disease) by research groups responsible for the individual study populations. Negative health effects in relation to pesticide exposure will highlight the importance of controlling pesticide usage in LMICs and to increase the emphasis on more sustainable means to adapt to climate change. Användningen av pesticider (kemiska bekämpningsmedel) ökar i låg- och medelinkomst länder (LMIL) som ett resultat av klimatförändringar vilket kan leda till hälsoskadlig exponering av befolkningar i dessa länder. På arbets- och miljömedicin vid Lunds universitet (AMM) har vi under lång tid, med finansiering från bl.a. SIDA och Formas, arbetat med att utveckla metoder för att mäta exponering för pesticider från miljön i biologiska prover från människor. Avsikten med denna ansökan är att få ökad kunskap om hur den höga användningen av pesticider i LMIL påverkar människors exponering och hälsa. Vi kommer mäta pesticidexponering i biologiska prover (urin, blod) för utvärdering i relation till hälsoeffekter. Proverna är samlade från högriskgrupper i LMIL i olika delar av världen med klimatpåverkan. Ökad kunskap kring pesticider och dess påverkan på människor och miljö i kan leda till bättre reglering kring dessa ämnen användning och en mer hållbar anpassning till klimatförändringar.Pesticider innefattar en bred grupp kemikalier som används för att skydda människor och grödor från skadliga organismer såsom insekter, ogräs, gnagare och mikroorganismer. De har således utvecklats för att skada levande organismer och kan därför även påverka människor. Exponering för vissa pesticider i höga nivåer kan ge akut förgiftning med allvarliga hälsoeffekter på bl.a. neurologiska och kardiovaskulära system, och även orsaka dödsfall. Långvarig exponering för olika pesticider vid lägre nivåer har också visats kunna orsaka bl.a. luftvägssjukdom, cancer, hormonförändringar och neurologiska effekter. Det finns också misstankar på att pesticidexponering skulle kunna skada njurarna – i flera tropiska länder har många lantarbetare drabbats av allvarlig kronisk njursjukdom.Pesticider används frekvent runt om i världen och konsumtionen är särskilt hög i LMIL med tropiskt klimat där ohyra frodas och regleringen gällande användningen av dessa ämnen ofta är bristfällig. Klimatförändringar kan leda till ökad spridning av skadedjur inklusive smittbärande insekter (t.ex. malariamyggor), sämre resistens mot ohyra bland grödor samt minskad effekt av pesticider, vilket leder till att användningen av pesticider ökar ytterligare. Det finns fortfarande mycket oklarheter om hur hög användning av olika pesticider i LMIL påverkar människors exponering och hälsa. Detta beror på att det finns få studier med tillförlitliga exponeringsdata – dvs baserade på faktiska mätningar av hur mycket människor exponerats - som kan relateras till hälsoeffekter. Dessutom har kvinnor och barn, som kan tänkas vara mest känsliga för negativa hälsoeffekter, hittills varit underrepresenterade i forskningsstudierna.Avsikten med denna ansökan är att bidra med avancerad exponeringsmätning av pesticider i ett flertal pågående studier av befolkningar i LMIL, för att bättre kunna utvärdera hur ökad exponering för pesticider i samband med klimatförändringar påverkar människors hälsa. Samtliga studier omfattar riskgrupper för skadlig exponering för pesticider och flertalet är från regioner med stark påverkan av klimatförändringar. Befolkningarna består av mödrar och barn från Bangladesh och Costa Rica, barn från Sydafrika, jordbruksarbetare från Uganda, El Salvador och Nicaragua, samt män och kvinnor från Nicaragua. I alla studierna undersöks hälsoeffekter, t.ex. andningsbesvär, neurologiska effekter (bl.a. neurologisk utveckling hos barn) och njursjukdom. Urin- och i vissa fall blodprover har tagits och sänts till AMM. Vi kommer att mäta halten av flera olika pesticider i utvalda prover. Resultaten ska sedan användas i de olika studierna. Projektet kommer även att innefatta metodutveckling för att kunna mäta nya markörer för pesticider.Projektet har goda förutsättningar att bidra med ny och viktig kunskap kring pestidexponering och relaterade hälsoeffekter i samband med klimatförändringar. De olika studierna omfattar män, kvinnor och barn från olika länder med klimatpåverkan och en rad olika hälsoutfall. Resultaten är betydelsefulla för de medverkande befolkningarna. De kommer att kommuniceras till lokala och nationella myndigheter, samt användas i utbildningssyfte. Ökad kunskap om hur pesticider påverkar människors hälsa kan bidra till bättre reglering och skydd av arbetare och allmänbefolkning, samt mer fokus på utveckling av alternativa och mer hållbara metoder för anpassning till klimatförändringar i LMIL.

The extent of pesticide exposure and associated health effects among populations in LMICs is not established. The aim of this project is to evaluate how climate change and intensified use of pesticides affect pesticide exposure and health in humans, including susceptible groups. We will create a new international research collaboration bringing together studies of pesticide exposure and health outcomes in populations from LMICs around the world affected by climate change. The populations include mother-child pairs from Bangladesh and Costa Rica, children from South Africa and agricultural workers from Uganda, El Salvador and Nicaragua. We will use the expertise in biomarker analyses at Occupational and Environmental Medicine (OEM) in Lund to monitoring pesticide exposure in the populations. Exposure will be analyzed in relation to health effects relevant to pesticide exposure (e.g. respiratory effect, neurodevelopment and chronic kidney disease) by research groups responsible for the individual study populations. Negative health effects in relation to pesticide exposure will highlight the importance of controlling pesticide usage in LMICs and to increase the emphasis on more sustainable means to adapt to climate change. Användningen av pesticider (kemiska bekämpningsmedel) ökar i låg- och medelinkomst länder (LMIL) som ett resultat av klimatförändringar vilket kan leda till hälsoskadlig exponering av befolkningar i dessa länder. På arbets- och miljömedicin vid Lunds universitet (AMM) har vi under lång tid, med finansiering från bl.a. SIDA och Formas, arbetat med att utveckla metoder för att mäta exponering för pesticider från miljön i biologiska prover från människor. Avsikten med denna ansökan är att få ökad kunskap om hur den höga användningen av pesticider i LMIL påverkar människors exponering och hälsa. Vi kommer mäta pesticidexponering i biologiska prover (urin, blod) för utvärdering i relation till hälsoeffekter. Proverna är samlade från högriskgrupper i LMIL i olika delar av världen med klimatpåverkan. Ökad kunskap kring pesticider och dess påverkan på människor och miljö i kan leda till bättre reglering kring dessa ämnen användning och en mer hållbar anpassning till klimatförändringar.Pesticider innefattar en bred grupp kemikalier som används för att skydda människor och grödor från skadliga organismer såsom insekter, ogräs, gnagare och mikroorganismer. De har således utvecklats för att skada levande organismer och kan därför även påverka människor. Exponering för vissa pesticider i höga nivåer kan ge akut förgiftning med allvarliga hälsoeffekter på bl.a. neurologiska och kardiovaskulära system, och även orsaka dödsfall. Långvarig exponering för olika pesticider vid lägre nivåer har också visats kunna orsaka bl.a. luftvägssjukdom, cancer, hormonförändringar och neurologiska effekter. Det finns också misstankar på att pesticidexponering skulle kunna skada njurarna – i flera tropiska länder har många lantarbetare drabbats av allvarlig kronisk njursjukdom.Pesticider används frekvent runt om i världen och konsumtionen är särskilt hög i LMIL med tropiskt klimat där ohyra frodas och regleringen gällande användningen av dessa ämnen ofta är bristfällig. Klimatförändringar kan leda till ökad spridning av skadedjur inklusive smittbärande insekter (t.ex. malariamyggor), sämre resistens mot ohyra bland grödor samt minskad effekt av pesticider, vilket leder till att användningen av pesticider ökar ytterligare. Det finns fortfarande mycket oklarheter om hur hög användning av olika pesticider i LMIL påverkar människors exponering och hälsa. Detta beror på att det finns få studier med tillförlitliga exponeringsdata – dvs baserade på faktiska mätningar av hur mycket människor exponerats - som kan relateras till hälsoeffekter. Dessutom har kvinnor och barn, som kan tänkas vara mest känsliga för negativa hälsoeffekter, hittills varit underrepresenterade i forskningsstudierna.Avsikten med denna ansökan är att bidra med avancerad exponeringsmätning av pesticider i ett flertal pågående studier av befolkningar i LMIL, för att bättre kunna utvärdera hur ökad exponering för pesticider i samband med klimatförändringar påverkar människors hälsa. Samtliga studier omfattar riskgrupper för skadlig exponering för pesticider och flertalet är från regioner med stark påverkan av klimatförändringar. Befolkningarna består av mödrar och barn från Bangladesh och Costa Rica, barn från Sydafrika, jordbruksarbetare från Uganda, El Salvador och Nicaragua, samt män och kvinnor från Nicaragua. I alla studierna undersöks hälsoeffekter, t.ex. andningsbesvär, neurologiska effekter (bl.a. neurologisk utveckling hos barn) och njursjukdom.

A significant number of people in SE Asia – where populations are growing rapidly - rely on seafood as their principal source of protein and essential micronutrients, thus requiring urgent solutions to ensure its continued availability in the diet of the 655 million people living in the region. Yet some of the aquaculture technologies and practices currently in use in SE Asia have alarmed policy-makers who are concerned not only about environmental sustainability, but because some of the farming methods and species being farmed are in fact detrimental to low income sectors of the population.Indeed, the desire for high return on investment often encourages cultivation of species that are in demand by wealthier urban/foreign populations, but are largely unaffordable by the rural populations directly involved in their production. Innovation in production methods, and developing local supply chains for sustainable feed inputs, are urgently needed to an alleviate nutritional deficiencies among seafood-dependent populations whose livelihoods are jeopardized by climate change. In this project, we aim to build adaptive capacity for small-scale farmers by enabling them to use affordable and sustainable local resources to culture species that are nutritionally and culturally suited for their own needs. I stora delar av Sydostasien och Stillahavsområdena är försörjningsförmågan starkt beroende av förmågan att producera mat, varav mycket erhålls från havet. Fisk är en högkvalitativ källa till protein, essentiella fettsyror och mikronäringsämnen. Trots att asiatisk fiskkonsumtion per capita har tredubblats under de senaste 50 åren, påverkar undernäringen fortfarande en betydande del av befolkningen. För länder på OECD: s DAC-lista över låginkomstländer är grundläggande livsmedelssäkerhet högst angelägen även under klimatförändringar i en nära framtid. Lokal kunskap om klimatförhållandena har historiskt tillåtit småskaliga fiskare och fiskodlare att hantera klimatvariationer, men ekosystemen står för närvarande under ett enormt tryck eftersom klimatförhållandena och intensiteten har gjort livsmedelssäkerheten alltmer oförutsägbar. En av de största rädslorna för klimatförändringen är att livsmedelsförsörjningskedjorna blir alltmer snedvridna eller störda, så att sårbara befolkningsgrupper kommer att finna det allt svårare att hantera de redan förödande effekterna av undernäring och dold hunger.  De som har minst motståndskraft kommer att drabbas mest, och har få sätt att förbättra sin situation. Som återspeglas i FN: s hållbara utvecklingsmål 2 är en av världens största utmaningar hur man ska säkerställa att en växande global befolkning, som förväntas stiga till cirka 10 miljarder år 2050, ska kunna uppfylla sina näringsbehov. Över en tredjedel av den nuvarande världsbefolkningen finns i Asien. För att mata ytterligare två miljarder år 2050, måste livsmedelsproduktionen öka med 50% globalt. FAO listar resultatmålen för SDG 2 som att: bekämpa brist på tillgång till mat, undernäring, småproduktivitet och inkomster, hållbart och fjädrande jordbruk och biodiversitet inom jordbruket.  Den föreslagna forskningen är anpassad till FN: s hållbara utvecklingsmål för att främja naturbaserade lösningar för att mata en växande världsbefolkning. Vattenbruk är en av världens snabbast växande livsmedelsproduktionssektorer, eftersom efterfrågan av högkvalitativt protein ökar medan marint fångstfiske är på en statisk eller sjunkande nivå. Akvakulturproduktionen kan kompensera för krympande vilda bestånd genom att lindra fisketrycket på naturliga ekosystem och den biologiska mångfalden som dessa ekosystem stödjer. Projektmålen omfattar att utforska alternativ teknik för att stödja ett vattenbruk som är hållbart och som har färre kombinerade miljö- och socioekonomiska konsekvenser än nuvarande praxis. Specifikt syftar detta projekt till att minska sårbarheten hos småskaliga bönder genom att undersöka ersättning i fiskfoderingredienser genom användning av lokala hållbara metoder för produktion av biomassa / biofloc.  Projektet kommer att utnyttja näringsfördelarna med att använda kombinationer av mikroalger och bakteriell biomassa som ersättning för fiskmjöl som härrör från viltfångad fisk, en praktik som har bidragit till uttömning av vilda fiskbestånd och minskande av tillgängligt fiskprotein för mänsklig konsumtion. Vi kommer också att titta på biomassa som ersättning för växtbaserade foderingångar, baserat på idén att lokalt tillgängligt, billigt foder ger en fördelaktigare miljöpåverkan än att transportera soja och andra foder över stora avstånd med hjälp av billiga fossila bränslen. Kostnaden för dessa traditionella foderingångar och otillförlitliga försörjningskedjor för dessa foder rapporteras vara den mest citerade faktorn som förhindrar utveckling av hållbar småskalig fiskodling för att möta hushållens näringsbehov. Betydande forskning har visat att många fiskar och kräftdjur betar på biofilm och biofloc, särskilt i larvstadier, och att de har näringsrika fördelar med det. Vår forskning kommer att undersöka ett nytt tillvägagångssätt för att förbättra näringskvaliteten hos biofilm / biofloc som ‘aquafeeds’. Enkel teknik för att producera biofilm / biofloc utvecklas alltmer, men är för närvarande inte allmänt använda. Genom att experimentera med ny teknik för att ‘så ut’ biofilm på odlingsutrustning kan det vara möjligt att förbättra näringskvaliteten hos foder för lokala producenter. Eftersom dessa tekniker inte kräver sofistikerade metoder kan de hjälpa till att göra foderingångar tillgängliga även för småskaliga bönder på landsbygden där tillgången till andra foderkällor är opålitlig eller för dyr för att använda för vattenbruksproduktion.

In these systems, incumbents typically seek to remain in power by manipulating electoral frameworks. On the African continent, such efforts have frequently been met by protests that have taken many forms. In spite of the growing occurrence of both autocratic electoral manipulation and popular protests, the significant issue of the dynamics and scope of protest mobilisation is understudied. This project analyses when and why disparate and temporary protest movements evolve into cohesive coalitions and how this affects the ability of protest movements to achieve their aims.

As our currently used antibiotics lose efficiency, we risk rapidly increasing number of untreatable infections leading to an increased number of lethal cases, longer hospital stays, and related suffering and economic burden. Antibiotic resistance is expected to hit developing countries especially hard, with 90% of the lethal infections predicted to happen in Africa and Asia.This study aims to make use of East African indigenous knowledge to use natural resources in finding new ways to control bacterial infections. Following an ethnomedical survey, medicinal plants will be collected in Kenya and Tanzania. Their constituents will be isolated, and identified by NMR and MS analyses. The bioactivity and toxicity of the isolated constituents will be determined using bacterial and cell-based assays. The biochemical pathways targeted by the most promising bioactive substances will be identified by chemical genomics. Advanced NMR techniques will subsequently 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 East African PhD students. It will support the economic development of East Africa by strategic knowledge transfer and by promoting patient safety on the use of plants as a result of the scientific investigation of ethnomedical practices. Som resultat av överanvändningen av antibiotika blir fler och fler av dem verkningslösa. Denna process kallas resistensutveckling och har på senare tid blivit ett snabbt växande problem som kan leda till en pandemi, dvs mycket snabb spridning av obotbara bakteriella sjukdomar. Antibiotikaresistens kan komma att kosta miljontals människors liv årligen, främst i utvecklingsländer.I detta projekt kommer två svenska, en tanzanisk och en kenyansk forskargrupp att samarbeta med det övergripande målet att bidra till utvecklingen av nya antibiotika. Vi kommer att undersöka naturläkemedel från Östra Afrika genom att identifiera nya bioaktiva substanser som verkar på hittills okända mekanismer. I dialog med lokala nyckelpersoner med kunskap inom naturmedicin, kommer vi att identifiera växter som kan förväntas innehålla antibakteriella substanser, extrahera molekylerna som finns i dem, bestämma deras struktur och antibakteriella aktivitet och toxicitet samt identifiera mekanismen de använder för att attackera bakterier. Ett av våra mål är att identifiera substanser som verkar på nya sätt, och som bakterier inte har utvecklat resistens mot.Under projektets gång kommer vi även att överföra kunskap till Tanzania och Kenya genom att träna tanzaniska och kenyanska studenter och doktorander i moderna kemiska och biologiska forskningsmetoder vid Uppsala universitet. Sammanfattningsvis förväntas projektet att ta tillvara på östafrikansk inhemsk kunskap inom naturläkemedel och identifiera nya bioaktiva substanser som verkar på hittills okända mekanismer med det övergripande målet att bidra till utvecklingen av ny antibiotika för läkemedel.

Following an ethnomedical survey, medicinal plants will be collected in Kenya and Tanzania. Their constituents will be isolated, and identified by NMR and MS analyses. The bioactivity and toxicity of the isolated constituents will be determined using bacterial and cell-based assays. The biochemical pathways targeted by the most promising bioactive substances will be identified by chemical genomics. Advanced NMR techniques will subsequently 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 East African PhD students. It will support the economic development of East Africa by strategic knowledge transfer and by promoting patient safety on the use of plants as a result of the scientific investigation of ethnomedical practices. Som resultat av överanvändningen av antibiotika blir fler och fler av dem verkningslösa. Denna process kallas resistensutveckling och har på senare tid blivit ett snabbt växande problem som kan leda till en pandemi, dvs mycket snabb spridning av obotbara bakteriella sjukdomar. Antibiotikaresistens kan komma att kosta miljontals människors liv årligen, främst i utvecklingsländer.I detta projekt kommer två svenska, en tanzanisk och en kenyansk forskargrupp att samarbeta med det övergripande målet att bidra till utvecklingen av nya antibiotika. Vi kommer att undersöka naturläkemedel från Östra Afrika genom att identifiera nya bioaktiva substanser som verkar på hittills okända mekanismer. I dialog med lokala nyckelpersoner med kunskap inom naturmedicin, kommer vi att identifiera växter som kan förväntas innehålla antibakteriella substanser, extrahera molekylerna som finns i dem, bestämma deras struktur och antibakteriella aktivitet och toxicitet samt identifiera mekanismen de använder för att attackera bakterier. Ett av våra mål är att identifiera substanser som verkar på nya sätt, och som bakterier inte har utvecklat resistens mot.Under projektets gång kommer vi även att överföra kunskap till Tanzania och Kenya genom att träna tanzaniska och kenyanska studenter och doktorander i moderna kemiska och biologiska forskningsmetoder vid Uppsala universitet. Sammanfattningsvis förväntas projektet att ta tillvara på östafrikansk inhemsk kunskap inom naturläkemedel och identifiera nya bioaktiva substanser som verkar på hittills okända mekanismer med det övergripande målet att bidra till utvecklingen av ny antibiotika för läkemedel.

Agroforestry (AF) with contour farming techniques is suggested as a solution to reduce soil erosion and land degradation, while improving farm productivity, food and nutrition security and aid in climate change adaptation. This project will assess options for profitable, sustainable, diversified farming systems on sloping land through integration of fruit trees, annual crops and perennial fodder crops. Specific objectives are to evaluate AF-contour farming systems´ potential (1) to buffer extreme weather events and contribute to climate change adaptation and resilience, (2) for soil conservation, system productivity and profitability, and identify success factors, (3) redesign mature AF systems to optimise productivity and profitability, and (4) to sustainably enhance smallholder livelihoods and factors affecting adoption. The proposed project will utilize existing on-farm field trials and demonstrations, and base-line data from an on-going project (Agroforestry for Livelihoods of Smallholder Farmers in Northwest Vietnam 2012-2021) and thus be able to carry out complementary and more in-depth research on mature AF systems.

Jordbrukare i Sydostasiens högländer begränsas av låg inkomst och utbildningsnivå samtidigt som de branta sluttningarna utgör en särskild utmaning för områdenas utveckling. Dessa områden är hem för etniska minoriteter och befolkningsandelen som lever i fattigdom är högre än i andra delar av dessa länder. Svårigheter att investera och hitta marknader för insatsmedel och produkter försvårar en hållbar utveckling till välstånd. En ökande befolkning och låga skördar gör att även branta sluttningar odlas upp vilket leder till förlust av skogsareal och ett jordbruk som inte är hållbart. De odlingsmetoder som används med ensidig majsodling och bränning av skörderester leder till erosion och stora förluster av kol från marken, vilket både ökar mängden växthusgaser i atmosfären och minskar markens bördighet. Oregelbunden nederbörd, svag markstruktur och litet skydd från levande eller död vegetation är faktorer som leder till kraftig erosion, jordskred, markförstöring och igenslamning av vattendrag. Agroforestry (trädjordbruk) där man bearbetar och arrangerar träd och grödor i horisontella linjer längs sluttningen (konturodling) har framhållits som en möjlighet att minska erosionen och samtidigt öka jordbrukets produktivitet, livsmedels- och näringssäkerheten hos landsbygdsbefolkningen, samt öka samhällets motståndskraft mot klimatförändringar. Till exempel har den ekonomiska återhämtningstiden efter torka och skadliga skyfall visat sig vara kortare för jordbruk som tillämpar agroforestry än för dem med odling av enbart ettåriga grödor. Träd, grödor och husdjur bör dock integreras på olika sätt beroende på höjdläge, sluttningarnas lutning samt jordbrukarnas kunskapsnivå, resurser och marknadstillgång. Det finns kunskapsluckor om hur agroforestry påverkar både trädens och grödornas produktivitet, samt om sambandet mellan vegetationstäcke, minskning av erosion och effekter på markbördigheten, speciellt på lång sikt. Det saknas också kunskap om hur systemen påverkar lantbrukarnas möjlighet att försörja sig på jordbruket, och hur möjligheterna att tillämpa agroforestry varierar mellan olika samhällsgrupper (kvinnliga/manliga lantbrukare, etniska grupper, inkomstgrupper). Det här projektet ska utvärdera olika system för agroforestry, och hur de påverkar jordbrukets tålighet mot klimatförändringar, hushållens inkomst, markbördighet och miljöpåverkan, samt hur goda lösningar kan implementeras i större skala för att förbättra småbrukarnas livssituation. Vi skall särskilt utvärdera:potentialen att mildra effekterna av extrema väderhändelser och bidra till anpassning till och tålighet för ett förändrat klimat,effektivitet vad gäller markskydd, ökad näringseffektivitet och ogräskontroll, samt vilka faktorer som främst bidrar till förbättringar,om systemens effektivitet och lönsamhet kan höjas ytterligare utifrån lärdomarna i (1, 2, 4), samtpotentialen att på ett hållbart sätt förbättra levnadsförhållandena för småjordbrukare, identifiera lämpliga agroforestrysystem för olika förutsättningar, samt faktorer som försvårar respektive understödjer att metoderna tas i bruk i större skala. Projektet ska använda sig av befintliga fältförsök på gårdar, lantbrukargruppers ’experimentlandskap’ (’demonstrationsodlingar’ över större ytor (50ha)) och grunddata från ett pågående projekt i nordvästra Vietnam och där insamla ytterligare data för att utvärdera de testade systemens potential att möta utmaningarna och bidra till hållbar utveckling och förbättrade levnadsförhållanden i Sydostasiens högländer.

The proposed study is a competing renewal of the VR grant Dnr 2016-05799 (ToxBol), in which Bolivian, Swedish, and French universities collaborated to evaluate environmental problems in Bolivia and their impact on human health. We identified areas in Bolivia with elevated metal and pesticide exposure and showed that part of the population is exposed to these chemicals at worrying levels. We also identified susceptibility factors, including genetics. However, many areas in Bolivia still have uncharacterised exposures, and we know little about exposure in children, a particularly vulnerable group. Furthermore, the effects of these exposures on the gut microbiome, a susceptibility marker for diseases that are increasing in South America, remains unclear. We therefore propose to add 2 new partners to ToxBol (new acronym MicroToxBol), enabling us to 1) characterise children’s metal and pesticide exposures, 2) investigate the gut microbiome in relation to metals and pesticides, and determine possible dysbiosis, 3) perform pilot studies in new high-risk areas in Bolivia (with high salinity, mining, and extensive use of specific pesticides), and 4) conduct risk assessment and 5) workshops for dissemination of the results. The MicroToxBol Network will increase knowledge about environmental problems in Bolivia, providing key information for improving public health. Hälsoförhållandena i Bolivia är en av de sämsta på västra halvklotet med hög barndödlighet, omfattande undernäring och parasit- och infektionssjukdomar, bla orsakat av dålig vattenkvalitet. I sydamerikanska länder är det dessutom vanligt med okontrollerad exponering för giftiga kemikalier i dricksvatten, mat eller arbetsmiljön vilket ytterligare ökar risken för allvarlig sjukdom. Emellertid är det i dagsläget oklart i vilken utsträckning bolivianer utsätts för en giftig miljö. Vissa delar av de sydamerikanska Anderna är kända för naturligt mycket höga halter av giftiga metaller i dricksvatten, däribland arsenik, samt att den betydande gruvnäringen i Anderna har lett till omfattande nedsmutsning med metaller av dricksvatten, föda och luft. I stora delar av Bolivia tillåter klimatet att man odlar grödor året om vilket tillsammans med den ökade nationella och internationella konkurrensen medför stor användning av bekämpningsmedel (pesticider). Dessa används ofta okontrollerat och utan skyddsutrustning. I nätverket ToxBol har vi visat att exponering för metaller via dricksvattnet samt användandet av bekämpningsmedel i jordbruket utgör en stor hälsorisk för vissa delar av befolkningen i Bolivia. Men omfattningen av exponeringen är fortfarande okänd, inte minst om barn exponeras, en speciellt känslig grupp för skador, samt om dessa ämnen kan störa tarmarnas bakterieflora och därmed bidrar till sjukdom i befolkningen. SyfteDet övergripande syftet med ansökan är att bilda ett nätverk av forskare i Bolivia, Sverige och Frankrike för att studera samband mellan miljö och hälsa i den bolivianska befolkningen, inklusive barn, samt identifiera effekter av miljön på bakteriefloran, en känslighetsfaktor för sjukdom. Akronym för projektet är MicroToxBol. I MicroToxBol sker1) insamlande av prover från barn i miljöer med metaller och pesticider i Bolivia2) pilotstudier på vuxna i nya riskområden3) analys av exponering och tidiga hälsoeffekter i biologiska prover från barn och vuxna4) insamlande av prover och karakterisering av bakteriefloran i tarmarna i relation till exponering för metaller och pesticider5) riskbedömning för miljörelaterad sjukdom6) workshops för att lära ut metoder om att mäta bakterifloran, statistik och riskbedömning7) ansökningar baserat på våra resultat. Metod och genomförandeVi använder frågeformulär för att kartlägga intag av vatten, typ av kost, sjukdomar, samt användning av bekämpningsmedel. Blod-, urin- och fecesprover kommer att samlas in för att mäta exponeringsnivåer, markörer för tidiga hälsoeffekter, samt bakteriefloran. Undersökningarna om metallexponering centreras till bolivianska Anderna där gruvindustrin är belägen och där det även naturligt förekommer höga nivåer av bla arsenik och litium. Pesticidexponering kommer att studeras i 3 områden som omfattar olika geografiska höjder och klimatzoner. Ett speciellt fokus är barns exponering. De biologiska proverna kommer även att användas för identifiering av tidiga markörer för hälsoeffekter. MicroToxBol verkar genom möten där vi diskuterar studierna, gemensamma publikationer om miljö och hälsa i Bolivia, samt ansökningar. Inga tidigare studier omfattar frågeställningarna i denna ansökan. MicroToxBol kommer även att verka i workshops för a) kunskapsöverföring av metoder för att mäta bakterieflora, statistik och riskbedömning och b) spridning av resultaten. Resultaten förmedlas till studiedeltagarna samt berörda myndigheter för att initiera eventuella preventiva insatser. RelevansDet föreslagna nätverket är högst relevant för bekämpning av fattigdom eftersom det kommer att belysa 1) barns exponering 2) om bakteriefloran störs av exponeringen 3) nya områden med potentiell exponering för giftiga kemikalier. Studierna sker i befolkningsgrupper med låg inkomst i Bolivia. Giftig miljö utgör ett stort hälsoproblem i Bolivia och bolivianska sjukvården samt myndigheter efterfrågar bättre förebyggande åtgärder och ny diagnostik för att förbättra hälsan. Vi vet från andra studier att det ofta är de fattigaste barnen som är utsatta för den mest farliga miljön vilket i sin tur bidrar till ohälsa i en redan utsatt grupp. Detta nätverk syftar till en rättvis och hållbar utveckling genom att främja rent dricksvatten och mat, samt en hälsosam arbetsmiljö i Bolivia och länder med liknande exponering och demografiska profiler.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-03832-1 Sweden Exposure to toxic chemicals in food and water is a high-priority public health problem (UN Sustainable Development goals). The proposed study is a competing renewal of the VR grant Dnr 2016-05799 (ToxBol), in which Bolivian, Swedish, and French universities collaborated to evaluate environmental problems in Bolivia and their impact on human health. We identified areas in Bolivia with elevated metal and pesticide exposure and showed that part of the population is exposed to these chemicals at worrying levels. We also identified susceptibility factors, including genetics. However, many areas in Bolivia still have uncharacterised exposures, and we know little about exposure in children, a particularly vulnerable group. Furthermore, the effects of these exposures on the gut microbiome, a susceptibility marker for diseases that are increasing in South America, remains unclear. We therefore propose to add 2 new partners to ToxBol (new acronym MicroToxBol), enabling us to 1) characterise children’s metal and pesticide exposures, 2) investigate the gut microbiome in relation to metals and pesticides, and determine possible dysbiosis, 3) perform pilot studies in new high-risk areas in Bolivia (with high salinity, mining, and extensive use of specific pesticides), and 4) conduct risk assessment and 5) workshops for dissemination of the results. The MicroToxBol Network will increase knowledge about environmental problems in Bolivia, providing key information for improving public health. Hälsoförhållandena i Bolivia är en av de sämsta på västra halvklotet med hög barndödlighet, omfattande undernäring och parasit- och infektionssjukdomar, bla orsakat av dålig vattenkvalitet. I sydamerikanska länder är det dessutom vanligt med okontrollerad exponering för giftiga kemikalier i dricksvatten, mat eller arbetsmiljön vilket ytterligare ökar risken för allvarlig sjukdom. Emellertid är det i dagsläget oklart i vilken utsträckning bolivianer utsätts för en giftig miljö. Vissa delar av de sydamerikanska Anderna är kända för naturligt mycket höga halter av giftiga metaller i dricksvatten, däribland arsenik, samt att den betydande gruvnäringen i Anderna har lett till omfattande nedsmutsning med metaller av dricksvatten, föda och luft. I stora delar av Bolivia tillåter klimatet att man odlar grödor året om vilket tillsammans med den ökade nationella och internationella konkurrensen medför stor användning av bekämpningsmedel (pesticider).

Thus, involving students in demanding areas of applied science is useful, especially those who have no access to world-matching standard of education.  In this proposal, we will focus on the training of science students of BS/MS level from less privileged areas of Pakistan and educate them in well-developed science centers of international standards in Pakistan and Sweden. The students involved in the project will be working on improving the efficiency of available solar cells by developing a capping layer with tailored TiO2. Ion implantation with different ion species will be extensively used for modification of TiO2. We expect that this new capping layer will enhance the efficiency of currently available solar cells.  The project of two years has unique possibilities to contribute to the training of students and to the field of photovoltaics because the involved teams have direct access to high quality material and deposition techniques, as well as ion implantation and complementary analysis equipment. In addition, there is a matching research interest in the participating groups and a long-lasting collaboration already exists. Huvudpunkten av detta projekt ligger på utbildning och färdighetsträning av yngre kvinnliga och manliga Bacherlor och Master-studenter från mindre utvecklade delar av Pakistan. Projektet syftar till att utnyttja ett redan existerande nätverk där en del är den mångåriga relation och forskningsutbyte som skett mellan Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan KTH (Anders Hallén) och National Centre for Physics (NCP) i Islamabad (Muhammad Usman).

Dagens förbränning av fossila bränslen måste då ersättas av hållbara lösningar, som ger våra barn och barnbarn samma möjligheter att leva sina liv, som har erbjudits tidigare generationer. En uppenbar källa till energi är solljuset som varje dag ger ett överskott av instrålad energi som motsvarar ca 10 000 gånger det som vi människor dagligen använder, t ex för transporter, värme, kyla, ljus och industriella processer. Den mest förädlade formen av energi som vi känner till idag är elektrisk energi. Denna form är relativt enkel att transportera och vi har uppfunnit mycket effektiva teknologier för att omvandla denna energiform till olika nyttigheter. Metoder för att kunna konvertera solljuset till elektrisk energi har därför en stor potential att kunna bidra till vår planets framtida fossilfria energiförsörjning. Det idag mest använda sättet är att utnyttja kiselbaserade solceller. Dessa är relativt billiga, men verkningsgraden är låg. Det pågår därför intensiv forskning för att hitta andra material, och kombinationer av material, som bättre tar till vara den instrålade solenergin. Samtidigt måste flera andra kriterier bli uppfyllda, t ex får materialet inte vara miljöfarligt eller dyrt och processerna som används för att tillverka solcellerna i detta material måste också vara enkla, billiga och lämpa sig för massproduktion. Många förslag har framkommit, men det är ännu inte möjligt att säga vilken solcell som kommer att användas i framtiden. Det viktiga nu är att på bred front undersöka många tänkbara varianter och låta resultaten styra. Det som föreslås i detta projekt är materialet titandioxid, TiO2. Det är ett vanligt förekommande ämne (=billigt), som används t ex som pigment i målarfärger och i solskyddskräm (=ofarligt). I sin normala form är detta material dock inte så lämpat för att absorbera solljus och att konvertera det till elektrisk ström, eftersom materialet absorberar mer av den ultravioletta strålningen (vilket är just den egenskap som gör det lämpat för solskyddskräm). Om man däremot modifierar materialet kan man skräddarsy egenskaperna så att precis rätt typ av ljus absorberas. I detta projekt ska vi använda jonstrålar för denna materialmodifiering. Denna metod ger stora möjligheter att förändra egenskaperna, dels genom att "skjuta" in andra atomer som förändrar elektriska och optiska egenskaper, dels genom att förändra strukturen i materialet och speciellt ytans struktur. Detta kan leda till att ytan blir hårdare och bättre står emot tidens tand och man kan även uppnå en hög antireflektivitet, som leder till att ytterst lite av solljuset reflekteras och i stort sett allt ljus absorberas och kan konverteras till elektricitet. Tanken med TiO2-skiktet är att använda det i modifierad form ovanpå ett annat solcellsmaterial och då samtidigt kunna utnyttja tre utomordentliga egenskaper hos skiktet: 1. Mekaniskt tåligt och långtidsstabilt 2. Antireflexivt 3.

The need to improve the health system is imperative with health indicators far-off from the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets. The SDGs in turn provide a framework for prioritized areas and emphasize the necessity of collaboration (SDG 17). The newly established National Public Health Institute of Liberia (NPHIL) and Karolinska Institutet (KI) are planning to address the current health system challenges in Liberia through providing joint research supervision to selected employees at NPHIL, who will apply to become doctoral students at KI. This will enable the NPHIL employees to carry out projects to strengthen parts of the health system in Liberia, under the supervision of national and international expertise as part of doctoral education. The collaboration will prioritize planning activities within nutrition, maternal and child health, HIV and hepatitis B and C, non-communicable diseases and antimicrobial resistance. In the two years of this project, we aim to register 4-5 doctoral students from NPHIL at KI. To ensure mutual development of research plans and further research funding, a joint meeting will take place in Sweden year 1, and a follow-up meeting in Liberia year 2. The proposed project has the potential to fast-track Liberia to reach several of the health-related SDGs, both through research and capacity building. Liberia är ett land i Västafrika med ca 5 miljoner invånare. Det är ett av världens absolut fattigaste länder. Efter flera decennier av inbördeskrig, drabbades landet dessutom 2014-2015 av det största ebolautbrott världen någonsin upplevt, och nästan 5000 personer dog. Personal från hälso- och sjukvården drabbades extra hårt eftersom de hade ökad risk i och med sitt arbete, och nästan 10% av läkare, sjuksköterskor och barnmorskor dog. Konsekvenserna av ebolautbrottet gick också långt utanför de direkta dödsfallen. Under utbrottet stängdes skolorna i nästan ett helt år, vilket gjort att en generation av unga missat ett skolår. Rutinverksamhet som förlossningsvård och barnvaccinering sattes på undantag, något som resulterat i bl.a. mässlingsutbrott efter ebolautbrottets slut. Utbrottet drabbade också ekonomin hårt. Efter några år med efterlängtad tillväxt, sjönk denna kraftigt. Studier visar att upp till 20% av företag tvingades stänga, och i huvudstaden förlorade företag upp till 50% av sina anställda.Sammantaget gör detta att Liberia idag hamnar i botten vad gäller de flesta mått på utveckling, inklusive hälsomått. Mödradödligheten är bland de högsta i världen (nästan en kvinna dör per 100 förlossningar) och barnadödligheten liknar den Sverige hade på 1930-talet, där nästan 1 av 10 barn inte överlever till sin 5:e födelsedag. Behovet av utbildad personal inom hälso- och sjukvården i Liberia är skriande. Det finns också mycket få personer som kan utbilda ny personal.Sverige har en lång tradition av att samarbeta med Liberia. Från 1950- till 80-talet var järnmalmsföretaget LAMCO, samägt av bl.a. liberianska staten och flera svenska företag, en av landets största arbetsgivare.Det föreslagna projektet syftar till att genom workshops och besök i Liberia och Sverige etablera ett samarbete mellan det nyetablerade statliga Folkhälsoinstitutet i Liberia och Karolinska Institutet (KI) (Institutionen för folkhälsovetenskap) för att forskarutbilda personal inom Folkhälsoinstitutet. Utvalda anställda (4-5 personer) ska under handledning av forskare från Folkhälsoinstitutet och KI utveckla forskningsplaner inom områden som är prioriterade av Folkhälsoinstitutet. Dessa områden inkluderar undernäring, mödra-, och barnadödlighet, HIV och hepatit, högt blodtryck och diabetes samt antibiotikaresistens. Målet är att de 4-5 personerna ska kunna arbeta med dessa projekt som anställda på Folkhälsoinstitutet i Liberia, men i tillägg registreras som forskarstuderande på KI och där gå forskarutbildningskurser. Det säkerställer att projekten genomförs med högsta vetenskapliga kvalitet, samtidigt som de utvalda personerna genomgår forskarutbildning. I ett land som Liberia där få personer är forskarutbildade, betyder varenda extra forskarutbildad person ett stort tillskott till landets kapacitet att kunna fortsätta utbilda personal inom, i detta projekt, hälso- och sjukvården.Sveriges regering har i Policyramverket för svenskt utvecklingssamarbete uttryckt avsikten att kapacitetsbyggande i den form som det föreslagna projektet ska prioriteras. Partnerskap är också ett av de 17 målen i Agenda 2030, (De hållbara utvecklingsmålen), för att alla länder ska ha en chans att uppnå de övriga uppsatta målen, inklusive att utrota extrem fattigdom och hälsa och välbefinnande. Genom ömsesidigt utvecklande av forskningsplaner och ömsesidig handledning från Folkhälsoinstitutet i Liberia och KI av de liberianska forskarstuderande, har det föreslagna projektet goda förutsättningar att för målet att starta att bygga forskningskapacitet i Liberia på ett hållbart sätt.

Dessa områden inkluderar undernäring, mödra-, och barnadödlighet, HIV och hepatit, högt blodtryck och diabetes samt antibiotikaresistens. Målet är att de 4-5 personerna ska kunna arbeta med dessa projekt som anställda på Folkhälsoinstitutet i Liberia, men i tillägg registreras som forskarstuderande på KI och där gå forskarutbildningskurser. Det säkerställer att projekten genomförs med högsta vetenskapliga kvalitet, samtidigt som de utvalda personerna genomgår forskarutbildning. I ett land som Liberia där få personer är forskarutbildade, betyder varenda extra forskarutbildad person ett stort tillskott till landets kapacitet att kunna fortsätta utbilda personal inom, i detta projekt, hälso- och sjukvården.Sveriges regering har i Policyramverket för svenskt utvecklingssamarbete uttryckt avsikten att kapacitetsbyggande i den form som det föreslagna projektet ska prioriteras. Partnerskap är också ett av de 17 målen i Agenda 2030, (De hållbara utvecklingsmålen), för att alla länder ska ha en chans att uppnå de övriga uppsatta målen, inklusive att utrota extrem fattigdom och hälsa och välbefinnande. Genom ömsesidigt utvecklande av forskningsplaner och ömsesidig handledning från Folkhälsoinstitutet i Liberia och KI av de liberianska forskarstuderande, har det föreslagna projektet goda förutsättningar att för målet att starta att bygga forskningskapacitet i Liberia på ett hållbart sätt.

The AFROMONITOX network will be a collaboration with scientists and practitioners designing affordable water treatment solutions for domestic water intended for irrigation use in a rural village in Egypt. The project aims to advance possibilities for assessment of the water treatment efficacy by designing sensitive yet cost-effective bioassays needed to secure water safety. The network will contribute to the tailored solutions for wastewater treatment and reuse by integrating ecotoxicological tests in the water quality monitoring. We will establish a collaboration with scientists engaged in the existing projects (Afrialliance Action Group and a Public-Private Partnership project) in the area of wastewater reuse and sanitation in rural areas of African countries. Our collective expertise in water quality assessment is highly complementary, and we foresee an efficient collaboration, both scientific and practical. The project will improve our understanding and tools in hazard assessment in various environmental settings. It will have high socioeconomic impact and permit long-term and economically-sustainable control of wastewater use for irrigation in rural communities. Also, it will contribute to the public awareness and on-site education as well as Stockholm University´s education in the ecotoxicological assessment of wastewater treatment. Projektet AFROMONITOX kommer att fokusera på utveckling av biologiska testsystem för vattenkvalitet med fokus på småskaliga anläggningar för vattenrening. Som ett modellsystem kommer vi använda byn Nagaa Diab i Egypten. I låginkomstländer tvingar vattenbrist befolkningen på landsbygden att använda obehandlat eller bara delvis behandlat hushållsavloppsvatten för att bevattna sina småskaliga jordbruksmarker. Eftersom de lokala jordbrukarna inte känner till de sammanhängande hälsoriskerna och för att det saknas en hållbar hantering av lokala myndigheter, så breder sig denna praxis ut mer och mer från låg- till medelinkomstländer. För att kunna öka jordbrukskapaciteten och så småningom kunna få en säker livsmedelproduktion i dessa länder, och därmed minska svält, behövs forskning på alternativa och kostnadseffektiva lösningar för avloppsvattenbehandling och återanvändning av avloppsvatten. I Egypten finns det för närvarande 40% brist på vatten för bevattning av jordbruksmark på grund av flera olika faktorer, så som geopolitiska förändringar i Nildeltan.Vårt studiesystem, Nagaa Diab, har ingen infrastruktur för behandling av avloppsvatten i byn. På grund av vattenbrist använder befolkningen i Nagaa Diab obehandlat, förorenat avloppsvatten för att bevattna sina småskaliga grödor. I nuläget finns det två projekt i Nagaa Diab, en Affro-Alliance och ett lokalt offentligt-privat projekt, som försöker att utveckla ett kostnadseffektivt vattenbehandlingssystem (NBS) som ska ge lokalbefolkningen möjligheten att säkert återanvända avloppsvatten för bevattning. Vi kommer att utvärdera möjligheterna att utforma ett enkelt men ändå effektivt ekotoxikologiskt utvärderingssystem för att tillhandahålla en effektiv, hållbar och ändå prisvärd lösning för övervakningen av vattenkvalitet inom NBS.Projektet kommer att öka kunskapen om toxikologiska testsystem anpassade till specifika tillämpningar. AFROMONITOX har en hög socioekonomisk effekt genom att tillhandahålla en hållbar verktygslåda för att övervaka vattenkvalitet under återanvändning av avloppsvatten. Vårt samarbete kommer också att bidra till allmänhetens medvetenhet och att utveckla kompetens och infrastruktur för avloppsvattenbehandling på landsbygden i Afrika. Utvecklingen av bioanalyser som är anpassad för småskalig vattenrening på landsbygden kommer även i ett utomeuropeiskt land förbättra vår förståelse av riskbedömning och dess användbarhet i olika miljöer.

Such a network is urgently needed as many African nations will or already are experiencing adverse impacts from climate change which will exacerbate existing sustainable development challenges such as poverty and food insecurity, as most recently seen in Zimbabwe and Mozambique as a result of cyclone Idai. L&D has become of great international concern, but major gaps in knowledge and effective practice still exist, particularly in the African context which has been been less prominent than other nations in shaping the debate and policy prescriptions. The aim of the FLAME network is to bring together Swedish L&D expertise with advanced African research on climate change impacts and policy solutions to mutually strengthen the international knowledge base and African scholarship in the L&D field. It does so through strategic knowledge exchange workshops, field trips and joint proposals for collaborative research with climate change scholars in Sweden, Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe. The project has the potential to enhance African engagement in UNFCCC negotiations on L&D while strengthening Swedish support for sustainable development in LDCs by enhancing knowledge base and policy implications of L&D.

Afrikanätverket på förlust och skada (FLAME)Syftet med samarbetet är att utveckla det första Afrika-nätverket om förlust och skada (L & D) från klimatförändringar. Ett sådant nätverk är brådskande, eftersom många afrikanska länder kommer eller redan upplever negativa effekter från klimatförändringen, vilket kommer att förvärra befintliga utmaningar för hållbar utveckling, såsom fattigdom och livsmedelssäkerhet, som senast sett i Zimbabwe och Moçambique som ett resultat av cyklon Idai.L & D är förknippat med klimatförändringarnas negativa effekter, inklusive effekter relaterade till extrema väderhändelser (tex intensiv tyfoner) och långsamma klimathändelser (havsnivåhöjning). L & D anses vara distinkt från anpassning, eftersom effekterna ligger utanför vår förmåga att anpassa sig till och associeras med "irreversibla", icke-ekonomiska och potentiellt transformativa förändringar. Exempelvis kan senaste rapporter om 35% förlust av korallrev i Great Barrier Reef innebära irreversibel förlust av grundläggande ekosystemfunktion.Den mest omfattande undersökningen av L & D-stipendiet hittills visar tydligt att den nuvarande forsknings- och utvecklingsforskningen saknas både i afrikansk fokus och bidrag från afrikanska forskare. Det finns ett behov av att veta när, var och hur potentiella L & D kan upplevas i afrikanska länder samtidigt som de genomgår nationella och internationella politiska förhandlingar för att undvika eller kompensera för L & D som uppstår. Syftet med FLAME-nätverket är att sammanföra svensk L & D-expertis med avancerad afrikansk forskning om klimatpåverkan och politiska lösningar för ömsesidigt stärka den internationella kunskapsbasen och afrikanska stipendiet inom L & D-området. Det gör det genom strategiska kunskapsutbytesverkstäder och utveckling av gemensamma förslag till samarbetsforskning med forskare i klimatförändringarna i Sverige, Moçambique, Malawi och Zimbabwe. Projektet har potential att underlätta mer afrikanskt engagemang i UNFCCC-förhandlingar om forskning och utveckling, inklusive pågående debatter om hur man identifierar, mäter och slutligen finansierar klimatrelaterade förebyggande och återhämtningsinsatser. Detta kan dessutom stärka svenskt stöd för hållbar utveckling i de minst utvecklade länderna genom att öka kunskapsbasen och de politiska konsekvenserna av forskning och utveckling samt direkt bidra till att uppnå SDG om klimatåtgärder (# 13), minskad ojämlikhet (# 10) och jämställdhet (# 5). Nätverket har också potential att indirekt bidra till fattigdomsminskning (# 1), noll hunger (# 2), god hälsa och välbefinnande (# 3) och hållbart partnerskap för målen (# 17).Under två år kommer FLAME att driva skriv- och utvecklingsverkstäder, virtuella seminarier och utflykter i Afrika och Sverige.

Nätverket kommer att utveckla ett stort förslag om forskning och utveckling i Afrika samt sprida nya insikter som kommer att samlas under workshops och interaktioner till FN:s klimatkonferens COP och möten på hög nivå. På lång sikt kommer detta forskningsnätverk att skala upp över Afrika och ge information och kunskap till UNFCCC-förhandlingarna om forskning och utveckling samt bidra till ny kunskap och vetenskapliga bedömningar som den internationella panelen för klimatförändringar (IPCC).

Nätverket har också potential att indirekt bidra till fattigdomsminskning (# 1), noll hunger (# 2), god hälsa och välbefinnande (# 3) och hållbart partnerskap för målen (# 17).Under två år kommer FLAME att driva skriv- och utvecklingsverkstäder, virtuella seminarier och utflykter i Afrika och Sverige. Tre viktiga partner är involverade från Afrika i Malawi, Moçambique och Zimbabwe. Projektets resultat kommer att bli det första nätverket mellan Sverige och Afrika om klimatförändringens ytterligheter och konsekvenserna för marginaliserade och socioekonomiskt utestängda samhällen. Nätverket kommer att utveckla ett stort förslag om forskning och utveckling i Afrika samt sprida nya insikter som kommer att samlas under workshops och interaktioner till FN:s klimatkonferens COP och möten på hög nivå. På lång sikt kommer detta forskningsnätverk att skala upp över Afrika och ge information och kunskap till UNFCCC-förhandlingarna om forskning och utveckling samt bidra till ny kunskap och vetenskapliga bedömningar som den internationella panelen för klimatförändringar (IPCC).

Within the international climate debate on strategies to mitigate climate change, there is a key focus on natural carbon sinks and their reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. There are, however, large gaps and uncertainties concerning the functioning and vulnerability of these sinks, especially with regard to coastal marine environments. The proposed project focuses on blue carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas exchange in tropical coastal environments in Tanzania, a developing country where climate change is the major threat, on top of multiple other stressors, to the health of societal and ecological systems. The major goal is to understand the carbon sink function and greenhouse gas exchange to identify hotspots of carbon sequestration within the complex seascape environment and to understand the fate of stored carbon as potential sources for greenhouse gas emissions. The research project will be performed using extensive field surveys in cooperation with Dar es Salaam and Dodoma Universities. The data will make it possible to develop conceptual models to identify areas for spatial conservation prioritization and will be highly useful for managers developing Marine Spatial Planning to safeguard climate regulation services of seascapes in developing countries in tropical areas. Att begränsa globala klimatförändringar med naturliga medel är idag det viktigaste alternativet för att möta hoten mot vår planet, men innebär samtidigt stora utmaningar för regeringar och beslutsfattare runt om i världen. Inom den internationella klimatdebatten om strategier för att mildra klimatförändringarna ligger ett centralt fokus på bevarandet av naturliga kolsänkor för att bibehålla dess minskande effekt på växthusgasutsläppen. Det finns emellertid stora luckor och osäkerhetsfaktorer kring funktionen och sårbarheten hos dessa naturliga kolsänkor, särskilt när det gäller kustmiljöer. Det föreslagna forskningsprojektet fokuserar på marina kolsänkor och växthusgasutbyte i tropiska kustmiljöer i Tanzania, ett utvecklingsland där klimatförändringarna är det största hotet, utöver flera andra stressorer, mot hälsan av de sociala och ekologiska systemen. Projektets huvudmål är att förstå kolsänksfunktionen och växthusgasutbytet i tropiska kusthabitat i syfte att identifiera s.k. hotspots av kol-bindning inom komplexa havsmiljömiljöer och att förstå vart lagrat kol till slut tar vägen, om de t.ex. är potentiella källor för utsläpp av växthusgaser. Forskningsprojektet kommer att utföras genom en serie omfattande fältundersökningar i samarbete med Dar es Salaam och Dodoma Universitet. Insamlade data kommer att göra det möjligt att utveckla konceptuella modeller för att identifiera områden som är speciellt värdefulla att bevara och kommer att vara mycket användbara för personal som utvecklar marin rumslig planering i syfte att skydda den klimatreglerande funktionen av kustnära havsmiljöer i tropiska utvecklingsländer.

While these 57 maritime nations share similar development challenges to improve their standards of living and embark on paths of sustained economic growth, they also face the repercussions of global economic competition and natural disasters caused by Climate Change. SIDS are the forerunners into a future of extreme weather, technological change, innovative solutions and shifts in political focus. The rest of the world can learn much from how they build transformative capacity and create new pathways. SIDS are not, however, a homogenous group. It contains a large variation in outcome. The Least Developed Countries (LDC) amongst them are the most vulnerable and they can learn from the success stories.In this project we bring together structuralist theories of long-term economic change with theoretical insights from institutional theory, demography and innovation studies to investigate the historical underpinnings of nationwide transformative capacity and potential transformation pathways of SIDS. In parallel, we conduct a broader quantitative study of how well the SIDS are achieving the ambitions of the Sustainability Development Goals (SDG) and we conduct in depth mixed methods studies of three LDC – Comoros, Haiti and Solomon Islands – and one success – Mauritius.

De har redan tagit första steget in i en framtid med tilltagande klimatförändringar som snart blir en verklighet för de flesta nationer. De leder vägen in i en tid som kräver teknisk förändring, innovativa lösningar och nya politiska åtaganden. Samtidigt är vissa öriken några av de fattigaste länderna i världen och de behöver få till ekonomisk tillväxt för att ha råd att hantera framtidens utmaningar.I vårt projekt ser vi små öriken som vetenskapliga laboratorium för att studera möjligheter till långsiktig socio-ekonomisk förändring och global hållbar utvecklig. Vi hävdar dels att öriken kan lära av varandra genom att de fattigaste kan dra lärdomar av de som lyckats bättre med sin tillväxtbaserade omvandling, dels att det är av globalt intresse att utforska och förstå hur små öriken hanterar ett klimat under förändring och hur de finner nya vägar mot en hållbar framtid. Medan vissa lösningar kommer vara kontextspecifika, kommer andra att lösa mer allmängiltiga problem.Projektet är väl integrerat i den existerande internationella forskningen om global och hållbar utveckling, men det finns betydande luckor som vi vill fylla och därmed driva forskningsfronten framåt. För det första kan vi som ekonom-historiker visa hur historiskt förankrade förändringsprocesser sträcker sig in i framtiden. Vi menar att förmågan att upptäcka och implementera nya lösningar är beroende av en historia av samlad kunskap, teknisk utveckling, hur väl de samhälleliga institutionerna fungerar, ekonomiska resurser, etc. För det andra, den nuvarande forskningen fokuserar vanligtvis på industrier och företag, men alla aktiviteter sker inom specifika socio-ekonomiska ramar som påverkar utfallet. Vi bidrar med att kartlägga och studera kontexten på global, regional, nationell och lokal nivå.Projektets övergripande syfte är att undersöka den historiska grunden för små örikens förmåga till förändring samt att förstå varför vissa nationer misslyckas med sina utvecklingsstrategier medan andra lyckas. Vi har två specifika delmål. Vi undersöker dels hur små öriken generellt har utvecklats över tid och rum, dels  potentiella utvecklingsvägar för några noga utvalda öriken genom att studera deras nuvarande förmåga till förändring. Vi prövar idén om att små örikens förmåga att förändras handlar om att utveckla processer och institutioner för att driva de strukturella förändringarna mot en framtid av socialt, ekologiskt och ekonomiskt hållbar utveckling. I en värld där det finns naturliga begränsningar för naturresurser, befolkningsmängd, konsumtion, etc. ser vi människan och hennes förmåga till innovation inom organisation och produktionssystem som den oändliga resursen.För att uppnå projektets syfte använder vi två parallella undersökningsstrategier. Vi genomför en kvantitativ kartläggning och analys av hur de av FN definierade 57 små örikena under utveckling (Small Island Developing States) uppfyller de globala målen för hållbar utveckling (Sustainable Development Goals). Samtidigt kommer vi att bedriva både kvantitativa och kvalitativa studier av förmågan till förändring hos fyra utvalda länder. Haiti, Komorerna och Solomonöarna representerar låginkomstländer och Mauritius är ett exempel på lyckad omvandling. I projektet använder vi ekonomiska, demografiska och sociala data på individnivå, statsdokument och policyrapporter, historiska berättelser och semistrukturerade intervjuer. Mångfalden av data möjliggör både djupgående fallstudier och breda jämförande analyser.Projektet sammanför fyra forskare med skilda forskningsintressen och expertis inom områden som innovation och hållbar utveckling, utvecklingsstudier samt ekonomisk och historisk demografi. De är alla väl förankrade i både nationella och internationella forskningsnätverk. För det aktuella projektet bygger vi vidare på våra befintliga nätverk samt utvecklar nya samarbeten med forskare och organisationer knutna till de fyra fallstudieländerna.

I en värld där det finns naturliga begränsningar för naturresurser, befolkningsmängd, konsumtion, etc. ser vi människan och hennes förmåga till innovation inom organisation och produktionssystem som den oändliga resursen.För att uppnå projektets syfte använder vi två parallella undersökningsstrategier. Vi genomför en kvantitativ kartläggning och analys av hur de av FN definierade 57 små örikena under utveckling (Small Island Developing States) uppfyller de globala målen för hållbar utveckling (Sustainable Development Goals). Samtidigt kommer vi att bedriva både kvantitativa och kvalitativa studier av förmågan till förändring hos fyra utvalda länder. Haiti, Komorerna och Solomonöarna representerar låginkomstländer och Mauritius är ett exempel på lyckad omvandling. I projektet använder vi ekonomiska, demografiska och sociala data på individnivå, statsdokument och policyrapporter, historiska berättelser och semistrukturerade intervjuer. Mångfalden av data möjliggör både djupgående fallstudier och breda jämförande analyser.Projektet sammanför fyra forskare med skilda forskningsintressen och expertis inom områden som innovation och hållbar utveckling, utvecklingsstudier samt ekonomisk och historisk demografi.

Vi bidrar med att kartlägga och studera kontexten på global, regional, nationell och lokal nivå.Projektets övergripande syfte är att undersöka den historiska grunden för små örikens förmåga till förändring samt att förstå varför vissa nationer misslyckas med sina utvecklingsstrategier medan andra lyckas.

The situation is particularly alarming in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) since surveillance systems and easy-to-use tools for monitoring are lacking. The goal of this project is to use Optical DNA Mapping (ODM) as a genetic tool in LMICs. ODM is a method for coarse genetic analysis of bacteria that identifies the bacteria and reveals the resistance genes they are carrying. The method will be implemented at the neonatal ward at Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. We have selected this setting for several reasons. First of all, Tanzania is one of many LMICs where simple microscopes are used in the clinical setting to diagnose tuberculosis. We will in this project repurpose these microscopes for ODM, which means that there is no extra cost for infrastructure. Second, we selected neonates because these patients are the most sensitive to resistant infections and have a high mortality. We therefore believe that any intervention that will result from this project will have immediate impact regarding decreased mortality. The project includes development of the ODM assay in Sweden, including adaptation to simple microscopy, a screen for resistant bacteria at the neonatal ward at MNH, teaching of staff at MNH in handling the ODM technique and finally implementation of ODM in routine testing in the neonatal ward at MNH. Antibiotikaresistens är ett av destora hoten mot global hälsa och vi är på väg emot en era där infektioner som länge varit möjliga att bota plötsligt blir dödliga igen. Problemen är extra alarmerande i låginkomstländer av ett flertal olika anledningar. En stor del av världens befolkning saknar tillgång till säkra toaletter och rent vatten vilket i sin tur markant ökar risken för att resistenta bakterier sprider sig. Det leder i sin tur till att bredspektrumantibiotika behöver användas,vilket försvårar situationen ytterligare. Antibiotikaresistens är också en enorm ekonomisk börda i den här delen av världen där multiresistenta infektioner kan orsaka en kostnad som motsvarar en årslön eftersom de sociala skyddsnätverken är minimala och den drabbade får stå för hela kostnaden själv. För tidigt födda barn är extra känsliga för resistenta infektioner då dom har ett begränsat immunförsvar och dödligheten på neonatalavdelningar i låginkomstländer är hög.En viktig del av att minska bördan av resistenta bakterier är att utveckla metoder för att identifiera och karakterisera bakterier och resistens som är lämpliga för användning i låginkomstländer. Det finns två strategier för detta, antingen utveckla nya billiga metoder eller att på ett billigt sätt använda dyrare utrustning som redan finns i de här länderna. Ett exempel som vi ska utnyttja i det här projektet är att diagnostik av tuberkulos i många låginkomstländer sker med fluorescensmikroskopi. Detta bygger till viss del via ett subventioneringsprogram som gör det möjligt för dessa länder att köpa mikroskopen till ett fördelaktigt pris.Vi vill i det här projektet använda dessa mikroskop för att med en metod som kallas ”optical DNA mapping” (ODM) analysera DNA från resistenta bakterier. ODM bygger på en grov bild av bakteriernas DNA, en så kallad streckkod, som kan användas för vidare analys. Metoden kan dels bestämma vilken typ av bakterie det är i ett prov och vilka resistensgener den bär på. Den har hittills använts på avancerade mikroskop. Därför är ett av de stora målen med projektet att optimera metoden för enklare mikroskop. Vi är övertygade om att detta kommer vara möjligt då det ODM protokoll vi utvecklat bygger på variationer i en stark fluorescens-signal vilket gör att enklare mikroskop med mindre känslig kamera är tillräckligt.Vi kommer att fokusera på så kallade enterobakterier, och framförallt Escherichia coli (EC) och Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP), och en del av projektet är att optimera ODM metoden så att det är möjligt att säga vilken grupp avEC eller KP som finns i et prov. Vi har preliminära data som tyder på att det är möjligt och kommer undersöka detta ytterligare i projektet. Detta är viktigt eftersom olika grupper av EC och KP är väldigt olika farliga när det gäller de infektioner de orsakar.Vi kommer i första läget implementera metoden på neonatalavdelningen på Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) i Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Vi har valt denna avdelning då, som diskuterat ovan, barn som är för tidigt födda är en grupp av patienter som är extra känsliga för infektioner och små framsteg i metodologi kan leda till markant förbättrad vård. MNH är också ett sjukhus som har stor erfarenhet av internationella samarbeten och vi har i vår närhet neonatalläkare med erfarenhet av vård på MNH, vilket underlättar implementeringen.Studierna på MNH är uppdelade i tre faser. I den första ska vi med traditionella metoder studera resistensläget på neonatalavdelningen för att ha en utgångspunkt för fortsatta studier. Vi ska undersöka bakterier i patienter när dom kommer till avdelningen och när dom lämnar samt jämföra dessa bakterier med de som orsakar infektioner på barn på avdelningen. Prover som samlats in under den här perioden kommer skickas till Sverige för att vara med i optimeringen av metoden. Detta gör att vi redan tidigt i projektet kommer ha detaljerad information om bakterier som cirkulerar på avdelningen och det blir möjligt att preliminärt föreslå sätt att minska spridning. I nästa steg ska vi träna personal på MNH på ODM metoden i Sverige och på plats på MNH och samla ytterligare isolat vilket kommer göra att bilden klarnar ytterligare. Tredje året är tanken att använda metoden parallellt med existerande metoder i klinisk rutin. Detta kommer att ge en ännu tydligare överblick över hur smitta sprids på sjukhuset och vi kommer i slutet av tredje året bidra med en tydlig plan för hur miljön på neonatalavdelningen kan förbättras för att minska spridning.

Detta bygger till viss del via ett subventioneringsprogram som gör det möjligt för dessa länder att köpa mikroskopen till ett fördelaktigt pris.Vi vill i det här projektet använda dessa mikroskop för att med en metod som kallas ”optical DNA mapping” (ODM) analysera DNA från resistenta bakterier. ODM bygger på en grov bild av bakteriernas DNA, en så kallad streckkod, som kan användas för vidare analys. Metoden kan dels bestämma vilken typ av bakterie det är i ett prov och vilka resistensgener den bär på. Den har hittills använts på avancerade mikroskop. Därför är ett av de stora målen med projektet att optimera metoden för enklare mikroskop. Vi är övertygade om att detta kommer vara möjligt då det ODM protokoll vi utvecklat bygger på variationer i en stark fluorescens-signal vilket gör att enklare mikroskop med mindre känslig kamera är tillräckligt.Vi kommer att fokusera på så kallade enterobakterier, och framförallt Escherichia coli (EC) och Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP), och en del av projektet är att optimera ODM metoden så att det är möjligt att säga vilken grupp avEC eller KP som finns i et prov. Vi har preliminära data som tyder på att det är möjligt och kommer undersöka detta ytterligare i projektet. Detta är viktigt eftersom olika grupper av EC och KP är väldigt olika farliga när det gäller de infektioner de orsakar.Vi kommer i första läget implementera metoden på neonatalavdelningen på Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) i Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Vi har valt denna avdelning då, som diskuterat ovan, barn som är för tidigt födda är en grupp av patienter som är extra känsliga för infektioner och små framsteg i metodologi kan leda till markant förbättrad vård. MNH är också ett sjukhus som har stor erfarenhet av internationella samarbeten och vi har i vår närhet neonatalläkare med erfarenhet av vård på MNH, vilket underlättar implementeringen.Studierna på MNH är uppdelade i tre faser. I den första ska vi med traditionella metoder studera resistensläget på neonatalavdelningen för att ha en utgångspunkt för fortsatta studier. Vi ska undersöka bakterier i patienter när dom kommer till avdelningen och när dom lämnar samt jämföra dessa bakterier med de som orsakar infektioner på barn på avdelningen. Prover som samlats in under den här perioden kommer skickas till Sverige för att vara med i optimeringen av metoden. Detta gör att vi redan tidigt i projektet kommer ha detaljerad information om bakterier som cirkulerar på avdelningen och det blir möjligt att preliminärt föreslå sätt att minska spridning. I nästa steg ska vi träna personal på MNH på ODM metoden i Sverige och på plats på MNH och samla ytterligare isolat vilket kommer göra att bilden klarnar ytterligare. Tredje året är tanken att använda metoden parallellt med existerande metoder i klinisk rutin. Detta kommer att ge en ännu tydligare överblick över hur smitta sprids på sjukhuset och vi kommer i slutet av tredje året bidra med en tydlig plan för hur miljön på neonatalavdelningen kan förbättras för att minska spridning.

The situation is particularly alarming in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) since surveillance systems and easy-to-use tools for monitoring are lacking. The goal of this project is to use Optical DNA Mapping (ODM) as a genetic tool in LMICs. ODM is a method for coarse genetic analysis of bacteria that identifies the bacteria and reveals the resistance genes they are carrying. The method will be implemented at the neonatal ward at Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. We have selected this setting for several reasons. First of all, Tanzania is one of many LMICs where simple microscopes are used in the clinical setting to diagnose tuberculosis. We will in this project repurpose these microscopes for ODM, which means that there is no extra cost for infrastructure. Second, we selected neonates because these patients are the most sensitive to resistant infections and have a high mortality. We therefore believe that any intervention that will result from this project will have immediate impact regarding decreased mortality. The project includes development of the ODM assay in Sweden, including adaptation to simple microscopy, a screen for resistant bacteria at the neonatal ward at MNH, teaching of staff at MNH in handling the ODM technique and finally implementation of ODM in routine testing in the neonatal ward at MNH. Antibiotikaresistens är ett av destora hoten mot global hälsa och vi är på väg emot en era där infektioner som länge varit möjliga att bota plötsligt blir dödliga igen. Problemen är extra alarmerande i låginkomstländer av ett flertal olika anledningar. En stor del av världens befolkning saknar tillgång till säkra toaletter och rent vatten vilket i sin tur markant ökar risken för att resistenta bakterier sprider sig. Det leder i sin tur till att bredspektrumantibiotika behöver användas,vilket försvårar situationen ytterligare. Antibiotikaresistens är också en enorm ekonomisk börda i den här delen av världen där multiresistenta infektioner kan orsaka en kostnad som motsvarar en årslön eftersom de sociala skyddsnätverken är minimala och den drabbade får stå för hela kostnaden själv. För tidigt födda barn är extra känsliga för resistenta infektioner då dom har ett begränsat immunförsvar och dödligheten på neonatalavdelningar i låginkomstländer är hög.En viktig del av att minska bördan av resistenta bakterier är att utveckla metoder för att identifiera och karakterisera bakterier och resistens som är lämpliga för användning i låginkomstländer. Det finns två strategier för detta, antingen utveckla nya billiga metoder eller att på ett billigt sätt använda dyrare utrustning som redan finns i de här länderna.

The problem has escalated by recent overuse of antibiotics in humans and animals and by contaminated environments. Today we face a real risk that emergence of multi-resistance in bacterial pathogens might render some infections untreatable and throw humanity back to the pre-antibiotic era. We have performed transconjugation experiments using bacteria derived direclty from natural contaminated water sources in Bolivia to study tranfer of antibiotic resistance genes. Recipient bacteria with obtained resistance were whole genome sequenced and the tranferred genetic material was analyzed. We found that genes encoding epigenetic methyltransferases and restriction endonucleases were part of the mobile DNA. We will now address the impact of epigenetic modifications in donor and recipient bacteria by taking advantage of Long-Read sequencing techniques (PacBio) that allows assemly of entire chromosomes and plasmids and also detect methylation profiles. Our preliminary data indicate that strain specific methylation profiles are present in E coli. We have found isolats that seemingly are unable to take up mobile genetic material while other isolates seems hypereffective in acquisition of foreign DNA. We hypotheze that this is due to epigenetic modifications of donor and recipient strains. The results will improve our understanding on how superbugs with antibiotic multiresistance can emerge and spread globally. Antibiotikaresistenta bakterier ökar över hela världen och nu är ett reellt hot mot hälsa hos människor. Tidigare forskning har visat att selektion och/eller evolution av resistens hos bakterier kan påskyndas av antibiotikarester, biocider och föroreningar i vattendrag orsakade av utsläpp och ofullständig rening av avlopp. Orsaken till detta är att gener som kodar för antibiotikaresistens och metal/biocid resistens ofta finns på samma DNA fragment och kan överföras genom horisontell överföring mellan bakterier.  Men bakterier har också starka skyddsmekanismer mot främmande DNA vilket lika väl kan ge en evolutionär nackdel för den mottagande bakterien. Bakteriers skydd innebär att de har specifika metylasenzym som sätter en metylgrupp på adenosin(A)- och cytosin(C)-nukleotider i det egna DNAt och att de också bär på ett motsvarande restriktionsenzym som klipper upp DNA som inte har rätt metyleringsmönster. Likaså är CRISPR/cas systemet från början ett sätt för bakterier att idenifiera virus eller plasmider som tidigare infekterat stammen och riktat klippa sönder dessa fragment vid ny infektion. På så sätt har bakterier ett slags primitivt immunsystem som förstör ovälkommet inkommande DNA. Detta innebär att eftersom horisontell spridning av antibiotikaresistens ändå sker måste plasmider kunna motverka dessa skyddsmekanismer för att etablera sig i sin nya bakterievärdVi har resultat från experiment där vi blandat förorenat naturligt flodvatten innehållande miljö- och fekala bakterier från en flod i Bolivia, med en mottagande labstam. Genom att analysera mottagarstammarför erhållen antibiotikaresistens kunde vi se att överföring av resistens hade skett. För att karakterisera mottagarbakterierna extraherade vi DNA och utförde helgenomsekvensering. Genom att jämföra sekvenser mellan de resistenta mottagarcellerna med den ursprungliga bakteriecellen identifieras gener som kodade för antibiotikaresistens och intressant nog även metylaser och antirestriktionsgener. Detta innebär att de överförda genetiska fragmenten förmodligen reglerar sin egen metyleringsprofil och eventuellt ändrar metyleringen i mottagarcellen. Detta visar att överföring av antibiotikaresistens är komplex och beroende både av givarcellens och mottagarcellens genetiska profil. Dessutom kan metylering medföra epigenetiska förändingar i genexpression hos bakterier. Upptag av antibiotiakresistensplasmider kan alltså eventuellt påverka uttryck av virulensfaktorer eller andra gener hos bakterier.Vi avser att anända Long-Read sequencing (PacBio) som kan sekvensera mycket långa DNA fragment och samtidigt upptäcka metylerade nukleotider eftersom det uppstår en tidsförskjutning i insättandet av nästa nukleotid. PacBio tekninken också kan sätta ihop hela bakteriella kromosomer och stora plasmider så vi kan bestämma exakt vilka plasmider som överförs. Metyleringsprofilen i givar och mottagarceller före och efter överföring kommer att jämföras med PacBio sekvensering i samarbete med SciLife Uppsala, Preliminära resultat indikerar att naturliga isolat av E. coli har en klonspecifik metyleringsprofil.Vår hypotes är att vissa enterobakterier kan vara obenägna eller hyperbenägna att ta upp och/eller överföra antibiotikaresistens p.g.a av sin metyleringsprofil.  Detta stöds av fynd av multiresistenta kloner av E. coli som rapporteras sprida sig närmast explosionsartat över världen under de senaste 10-20 åren. Ett sådant exempel är den anmälningspliktiga multiresistenta E. coli klonen ST131 som ger svår urinvägsinfektion vilken kan resultera i obotliga urinvägsinfektioner. Vi har i försök sett att ST131 kan ta upp resistensgener från andra mutiresistenta kloner vilket stöder vår hypotes.Detta projekt kombinerar unika miljöer bakterier i Bolivia med avancerade genetiska och epigenetiska analyser i Sverige. Det bolivianska teamet är experter på transkonjugeringsexperiment och odlingsanalys medan den svenska gruppen bidrar med molekylärbiologi och sekvensering. Vi använder naturligt förekommande bakterier från förorenat vatten i Bolivia samt en E. coli stamkollektion för analyser av upptag av antibiotikaresistensplasmider, epigenetik och genexpression före och efter transkonjugering. Vi kommer slå ut metylaser och antirestriktionsfaktorer med mutagenes och studera om detta påverkar överföring av plasmider och genuttryck hos givar och mottagarceller. Resultaten kommer ge en bättre förståelse för de molekylära mekanismerna bakom spridning och uppkomst av antbiotikaresistens.

A significant but understudied outcome has been has been the development of specialized knowledge about gender relations, the packaging of this knowledge as expertise, and the formation of cadres of gender experts around the world. This project explores the politics and effects of gender expertise in peacebuilding in the case of Myanmar. Through interviews with gender experts working for international organizations, donor agencies and NGOs and with activists within the Burmese women´s movement, the project analyses the content of gender expertise; the practices and strategies used by gender experts; and the power effects that are generated by the application of international gender expertise in processes of peacebuilding in Myanmar. In particular, the relationship between international gender expertise and local women´s movements and political agendas is examined. Addressing these  questions, the project will significantly advance knowledge about the content and practices of international gender expertise in peacebuilding, and about its political effects in relation to local conflict dynamics and relations of power. In addition, it will provide timely new insights into the gendered dynamics of peacebuilding in Myanmar. Internationell feministisk aktivism och forskning har under de senaste årtiondena framgångsrikt lyckats aktualisera frågor om kön på den internationella politiska agendan och i institutioner och processer för global styrning. Jämställdhet är nu ett vida accepterat mål, som även kodifierats i internationella konventioner och lagtexter. Denna utveckling har skapat en efterfrågan på expertkunskaper kring makt, kön och jämställdhet, och bidragit till att skapa en ny typ av kunskap - jämställdhetsexpertis; och en ny yrkeskategori - jämställdhetsexperter. Men trots att framväxten av jämställdhetsexpertis och jämställdhetsexperter kan beskrivas som en av den samtida feminismens största framgångar så fortsätter samhällen världen runt präglas av utbredda ojämlikheter mellan könen. Denna paradox visar på vikten av att undersöka hur jämställdhetsexpertis skapas och används i praktiken i olika sammanhang, och hur detta bidrar till att utmana eller förstärka olika typer av ojämlika maktrelationer. Detta projekt undersöker jämställdhetsexpertisens politik och effekter i internationellt fredsbyggande. Fredsbyggande och konflikthantering är ett område där feministiska aktivister och forskare engagerat sig för att se till att kvinnors behov tas i beaktande och att kvinnor ges möjlighet att påverka fredsprocesser och återuppbyggnad efter väpnade konflikter. Detta har bl.a. bidragit till att FN:s säkerhetsråd antog resolution 1325 år 2000, och att ett policyramverk med fokus på kvinnor, fred och säkerhet har etablerats sedan dess. Denna utveckling har också skapat en efterfrågan på jämställdhetsexperter och deras kunskap för att hjälpa internationella organisationer och bidragsgivare omsätta sina nya åtaganden i praktiken. Denna studie fokuserar på hur detta sker i Myanmar - ett land där en freds- och reformprocess pågår sedan 2011 och det internationella samfundet har successivt ökat sin närvaro och sitt engagemeng i fredsbyggande. Som en del i detta har också en yrkeskategori bestående av internationella jämställdhetsexperter etablerats i landet. Denna studie undersöker vilken typ av kunskap om fred, konflikt, makt och kön som dessa experter producerar, och vilka strategier och verktyg som de använder för att omsätta kunskapen i praktiken. En annan viktig fråga som denna studie fokuserar på är hur mötet mellan internationell jämställdhetsexpertis och lokala kvinnorörelser och deras politiska kamper ser ut. I Myanmar finns en stark kvinnorörelse, som dock är ganska splittrad i olika grenar som på olika sätt speglar kvinnors positioner i förhållande till den väpnade konflikten och deras etniska tillhörighet. Det är därför särskilt viktigt att kritiskt granska hur internationell jämställdhetsexpertis påverkar den politiska dynamiken i Myanmar: bidrar internationell jämställdhetsexpertis till att understödja lokala kvinnors kamp? Och i så fall vilka kvinnor, givet att olika delar av kvinnorörelsen har olika mål? Eller finns det en spänning eller konkurrens mellan internationella jämställdhetsexperter och lokala kvinnoorganisationer och aktivister, t.ex. när det gäller vem som får definiera vad jämställdhet bör innebära i fredsbyggande i Myanmar?I detta projekt undersöks dessa frågor genom intervjuer med internationella jämställdhetsexperter och aktivister från kvinnoorganisationer i Myanmar. Studien kan bidra med ny kunskap om vad som händer när feministiska idéer och mål integreras i global styrning, och när den globala styrningens organisationer och processer möter lokala kontexters maktförhållanden och politiska dynamik.

Denna studie fokuserar på hur detta sker i Myanmar - ett land där en freds- och reformprocess pågår sedan 2011 och det internationella samfundet har successivt ökat sin närvaro och sitt engagemeng i fredsbyggande. Som en del i detta har också en yrkeskategori bestående av internationella jämställdhetsexperter etablerats i landet. Denna studie undersöker vilken typ av kunskap om fred, konflikt, makt och kön som dessa experter producerar, och vilka strategier och verktyg som de använder för att omsätta kunskapen i praktiken. En annan viktig fråga som denna studie fokuserar på är hur mötet mellan internationell jämställdhetsexpertis och lokala kvinnorörelser och deras politiska kamper ser ut. I Myanmar finns en stark kvinnorörelse, som dock är ganska splittrad i olika grenar som på olika sätt speglar kvinnors positioner i förhållande till den väpnade konflikten och deras etniska tillhörighet. Det är därför särskilt viktigt att kritiskt granska hur internationell jämställdhetsexpertis påverkar den politiska dynamiken i Myanmar: bidrar internationell jämställdhetsexpertis till att understödja lokala kvinnors kamp? Och i så fall vilka kvinnor, givet att olika delar av kvinnorörelsen har olika mål? Eller finns det en spänning eller konkurrens mellan internationella jämställdhetsexperter och lokala kvinnoorganisationer och aktivister, t.ex. när det gäller vem som får definiera vad jämställdhet bör innebära i fredsbyggande i Myanmar?I detta projekt undersöks dessa frågor genom intervjuer med internationella jämställdhetsexperter och aktivister från kvinnoorganisationer i Myanmar. Studien kan bidra med ny kunskap om vad som händer när feministiska idéer och mål integreras i global styrning, och när den globala styrningens organisationer och processer möter lokala kontexters maktförhållanden och politiska dynamik.

Detta projekt syftar till att förbättra kunskapen om hur den afrikanska landsbygden och särskilt jordbruket har förändrats sedan millennieskiftet och hur det påverkat bland annat fattigdomen i regionen. Vi utvecklar nya metoder anpassade från bland annat ansiktsigenkänning, tillämpade på detaljerade satellitbilder över olika afrikanska regioner. Syftet är att genom maskininlärning träna en algoritm att känna igen byar som t ex är fattiga eller byar där jordbruksproduktionen ökar. Eftersom satellitbilder är yttäckande till skillnad från urvalsstudier och eftersom samma område täcks in flera gånger per år kan vi följa utvecklingen över tid och rum på ett helt nytt sätt. För att lära en algoritm att känna igen objekt krävs extremt stora mängder träningsdata. Sådana har byggts upp av t ex Google (GoogleLeNet) och innehåller miljontals bilder och kategorier. Problemet är att dessa bilddatabaser innehåller begränsad information om kategorierna som är intressanta här. De är heller inte anpassade för det fågelperspektiv som satellitbilder medför.Vår lösning bygger bland annat på konceptet ”transfer learning”. Det betyder att algoritmen lär sig kunskap att stegvis och från olika källor. Processen liknar mycket hur människor lär sig – stegvis och genom exempel. I ett första steg lär vi algoritmen så mycket som möjligt från stora bilddatabaser. Därefter förs processen vidare genom träning på satellitbilder som innehåller information om t ex vegetation och nattbelysning på jordklotet. I det här steget lär sig algoritmen att koppla samman tidigare kunskap med faktorer som kan kopplas till jordbruksproduktion och fattigdomsnivåer. Förutom satellitbilder har projektet tillgång till stora mängder hushållsdata varifrån etiketter som ”fattig” eller ”icke-fattig” kan skapas som stöd för inlärningsprocessen.När sedan en tidigare osedd satellitbild matas in kommer den tränade algoritmen att kunna avgöra ifall ett område är fattigt eller välmående eller hur stor jordbruksproduktionen är i området. Algoritmen kan vidare appliceras på satellitbilder från olika tidsperioder och därmed bidra med kunskap om hur regionen utvecklats.Maskininlärning bygger på studiet av statistiska samband eller korrelationer. Vid en orsaksanalys är tidsföljden fundamental, medan en korrelationsanalys inte tar någon hänsyn till denna. För att reda ut orsakssambanden, förlitar vi oss inte enbart på maskininlärning utan på ekonometriska metoder som är gjorda för statistisk analys av orsakssamband.Våra metoder tillåter oss att modellera lokala förhållanden och gå ner på en detaljnivå som tidigare inte varit möjlig; men vi kan också generalisera med bibehållen hänsyn till lokala variationer, vilket tidigare inte varit möjligt.

This is a severe pest on maize, and on several other crops, and will have devastating effects on agricultural yields with socio-economic consequences for local population. Considering the epidemic spread of the pest, the situation is alarming. To achieve food security with sustainable agriculture it is crucial to find biological control methods instead of applying chemical pesticides.We propose to establish a 2-year network between researchers at SLU, Sweden, icipe, Kenya, and IRD, France, to perform four targeted studies on the ecology of the Fall Armyworm. The studies are developed in collaboration and will be performed in Kenya and Sweden by visiting researchers. The results will be used for developing sustainable control methods that could be used for integrated pest management. We will have yearly meetings to enhance capacity building. We have an explicit focus on facilitating the future career of young researchers, striving to enhance gender balance and to promote women in science. Each year we will host an interdisciplinary workshop with invited experts to transfer knowledge and to prepare collaboration and applications. The aim is to take joint action in how to control the pest and to build a strong European-African network to be prepared in the event of future invasive species moving between the continents. Invasiva arter är ett av de allvarligaste hoten mot den biologiska mångfalden och flera länder, däribland Sverige, har förbundit sig att arbeta för att kontrollera dem. Har en invasiv art väl etablerats i ett nytt område kostar det enorma summor att kontrollera och försöka utplåna den. Är en invasiv art även ett skadedjur på jordbruksgrödor, så att kostnad för skördeförlust tas med i beräkningen, kan summorna bli ännu större.År 2016 upptäcktes för första gången den fruktade invasiva arten Spodoptera frugiperda, en nattfjäril som är ett skadedjur på flera olika grödor, i Afrika. Redan år 2017 hade arten etablerats i de flesta länder söder om Sahara. Spridningen av skadedjuret har varit närmast epidemisk och eftersom arten framför allt lever av majs, som är en av de viktigaste grödorna i Afrika och som lokalbefolkningen är beroende av som basmat, kommer arten att få betydande negativa konsekvenser både vad gäller ekonomi och svält. Situationen är akut och det är oerhört viktigt att snabbt hitta hållbara kontrollmetoder för att inte öka användningen av kemiska bekämpningsmedel. För att bekämpa arten på ett hållbart vis behövs djup kunskap om artens biologi, t ex vilka växter den attackerar eller om det finns några naturliga fiender som kan kontrollera den.Med denna ansökan föreslår vi att etablera ett nätverk för forskare i ekologi vid institutionen för Växtskyddsbiologi, SLU och icipe, Kenya. Inom nätverket kommer vi att bedriva fyra små studier för att fördjupa kunskaperna om vilka värdväxter Spodoptera frugiperda använder sig av i Kenya och hur dessa växter påverkar skadedjuret, vilka inhemska parasitsteklar som eventuellt skulle kunna kontrollera arten och hur S. frugiperda påverkar och påverkas av konkurrens med andra nattfjärilar. Resultatet av denna forskning kommer vara viktig för att ta fram biologiska kontrollmetoder och samodlingssystem som missgynnar skadedjuret. Eftersom forskningen fokuserar på att ta fram metoder som grundas på den inhemska faunan i Kenya och samodlingssytem som redan praktiseras, är detta ett kost-effektivt sätt som lämpar sig väl för jordbrukarna.För forskarna från båda institutioner kommer nätverket att ge stora fördelar både vad gäller forskningsinsikt men även genom att etablera nya kontakter. Vi har en uttalad strävan att hjälpa unga forskare i deras karriär genom att låta dem genomföra forskningsstudierna ovan vid det motsatta institutet under några månader. Detta kommer att utöka deras nätverk och forskningserfarenhet samt bidra till att forma deras specifika forskningsprofil. Vi kommer underlätta för kvinnor inom forskning genom att ha en jämn könskvot på de unga forskare som väljs ut.Förutom själva forskningen kommer vi inom nätverket att hålla två planeringsmöten per år då vi delar aktuell kunskap, planerar våra studier och även ansökningar för framtida samarbete. I anslutning till ett av detta möten kommer vi varje år att hålla en workshop med inbjudna experter from olika fält. Eftersom en effektiv kontrollering av invasiva arter är tvärvetenskaplig och berör allt från biologi till myndighetsbeslut är det viktigt att dela kunskap mellan olika områden och samarbeta om strategier. Under workshoparna kommer ett av målen därför även vara att diskutera framtida tvärvetenskapliga samarbetsprojekt.Vi är övertygade om att vår forskning kommer att bidra till utvecklingen av hållbara kontrollmetoder av S. frugiperda och därmed bidra till att minska fattigdom och svält i linje med de globala miljömålen. Vi ser även att nätverket kommer att bidra till ökad kommunikation mellan berörda aktörer och leda till nya samarbetsprojekt, även tvärvetenskapliga. Att ha ett starkt nätverk mellan Europa och Afrika som forskar på invasiva arter kommer vara betydelsefullt i händelse av att andra invasiva arter flyttar mellan kontinenterna, något som förutspås bli vanligare i takt med klimatförändringar.

The emergence of taro blight, caused by Phytophthora colocasiae, outbreak in West Arica in 2010 devastated taro production in the region, almost wiping out production and eliminating valuable landraces. Nigeria and Benin are among the top producers of taro in Africa. We aim to initiate a revival of West African taro production by understanding the epidemiology of the invasive pathogen, including development of tools for detection, monitoring and diagnosis of P. colocasiae. The project will explore alternative hosts to P. colocasiae that may be playing a key role in pathogen survival in the absence of the main host. We also aim to improve phenotyping methods for screening taro germplasm for resistance. This knowledge will be used to educate farmers on better management methods and develop new strategies for disease control. We will train one PhD student in high-throughput phenotyping and remote sensing for disease assessment and diagnostics in Benin and Nigeria. Penseq on field isolates of P. colocasiae will identify effectors (pathogenicity determinants produced by the pathogen) and target genes for chemical control. This project represents a first step towards understanding pathogenicity determinants in this pathogen and to design specific management strategies to control the disease. Taro (Colocasia esculenta) är en viktig basgröda som odlas i tropiska Afrika, Asien, Sydamerika, Stilla havet och Karibien för över 500 miljoner människor. Nigeria och Benin är bland de främsta producenterna av taro i Afrika. Det är en basföda som har använts som huvudkälla för mat i över 9000 år vilket gör den till en av världens äldsta matgrödor. Det är den femte viktigaste rotfrukten i världen. Taro fungerar som en utmärkt källa till kolhydrater och proteiner för fattiga jordbrukare i Afrika. Proteininnehållet i taro-knöl är något högre än i yam, kassava eller sötpotatis. Det innehåller också större mängder vitamin B än standardmjölk och kan också konsumeras av barn som är känsliga för mjölk. Taro är också användbart för personer som är allergiska mot spannmål. I Sverige används taromjöl som en ersättning för glutenfritt mjöl för att göra bröd. Taro-mögel är den största sjukdomen som påverkar taro-växten orsakad av algsvampen och växtpatogenen Phytophthora colocasiae. Algsvampar som också kallas vattenmögel liknar svampar, eftersom de delar karaktäristiska drag med dessa, såsom trådformig tillväxt och reproduktion via sporer. De övriga viktiga begränsningarna för taroproduktionen i området är virussjukdomar och rotröta. Ett stort utbrott av taro-mögel i 2010 i Västafrika har förstört tarotillverkningen i regionen, som nästan utplånat produktion och eliminerat värdefulla sorter av taro och drivit redan fattiga bönder till ytterligare fattigdom. Återupplivandet av taroproduktionen i denna fattiga region kräver effektiva lösningar för att förhindra återkommande angrepp av P. colocasiae som nu har etablerat sig som ett endemiskt hot mot taro. Det finns en stor kunskapsbrist om sjukdomsutbredning, diagnos och sjukdomsbekämpning i dessa regioner. I Afrika odlas taro av fattiga bönder som inte har råd med dyra kemikalier och intensiva bekämpningsprogram för att kontrollera taro-mögel. För närvarande finns det få kemikalier tillgängliga på marknaden för att kontrollera taro-mögel. Det är således ett brådskande behov av att utveckla alternativa medel för patogenkontroll. Vi strävar efter att återuppliva den västafrikanska tarotillverkning speciellt i Benin och Nigeria genom att förstå epidemiologin hos P. colocasiae i Västafrika, även genom utveckling av programvara och verktyg, såsom drönare, värmekameror, handhållna mätare och mobilapplikationer för detektering och övervakning av P. colocasiae både i mark och växtdelar. Vi kommer också att undersöka närvaron av andra värdväxter som smittas av P. colocasiae, som kan spela en nyckelroll vid överlevnad av patogenen i frånvaro av huvudvärden, taro. Vi kommer även att utveckla förbättrade fenotypningsmetoder för screening av taro-kulturer för taro-sjukdomsresistens. Denna kunskap kommer att användas för att utbilda jordbrukare för bättre hanteringsmetoder och utvecklandet av nya strategier för sjukdomsbekämpning. Vi kommer också att använda hållbara biologiska kontrollmedel med låg kostnad och lågtoxiska växtbaserade produkter och kemikalier för att kontrollera taro-mögel Vi kommer att utbilda en forskare i storskalig fenotypning och fjärranalys för sjukdomsbedömning i Benin och Nigeria. PenSeq, en riktad gensekvenseringsmetod kommer att användas i P. colocasiae isolerade från fält för att identifiera effektorer som har en viktig roll för infektion samt gener in i patogenen som kan bli mål för kemisk kontroll. Kunskapen från detta sekvenseringsprojekt kommer att stödja taroförädlingsprogram. Vi kommer också att undersöka motståndsgener i olika sorter av taro för att identifiera resistens . Detta projekt är ett första steg för att identifiera sjukdomsframkallande gener i P. colocasiae och utforma specifika strategier för att kontrollera sjukdomen. Genom att förbättra upptäckten och kontrollen av sjukdommar i taro kommer vi att bidra till en ökning av taroproduktionen och en förbättring av tarotkvaliteten i låginkomstländer i Västafrika. Detta kommer att bidra till minskad fattigdom och ökad inkomst, sysselsättning och handel i Benin och Nigeria.

This project represents a first step towards understanding pathogenicity determinants in this pathogen and to design specific management strategies to control the disease. Taro (Colocasia esculenta) är en viktig basgröda som odlas i tropiska Afrika, Asien, Sydamerika, Stilla havet och Karibien för över 500 miljoner människor. Nigeria och Benin är bland de främsta producenterna av taro i Afrika. Det är en basföda som har använts som huvudkälla för mat i över 9000 år vilket gör den till en av världens äldsta matgrödor. Det är den femte viktigaste rotfrukten i världen. Taro fungerar som en utmärkt källa till kolhydrater och proteiner för fattiga jordbrukare i Afrika. Proteininnehållet i taro-knöl är något högre än i yam, kassava eller sötpotatis. Det innehåller också större mängder vitamin B än standardmjölk och kan också konsumeras av barn som är känsliga för mjölk. Taro är också användbart för personer som är allergiska mot spannmål. I Sverige används taromjöl som en ersättning för glutenfritt mjöl för att göra bröd. Taro-mögel är den största sjukdomen som påverkar taro-växten orsakad av algsvampen och växtpatogenen Phytophthora colocasiae. Algsvampar som också kallas vattenmögel liknar svampar, eftersom de delar karaktäristiska drag med dessa, såsom trådformig tillväxt och reproduktion via sporer. De övriga viktiga begränsningarna för taroproduktionen i området är virussjukdomar och rotröta. Ett stort utbrott av taro-mögel i 2010 i Västafrika har förstört tarotillverkningen i regionen, som nästan utplånat produktion och eliminerat värdefulla sorter av taro och drivit redan fattiga bönder till ytterligare fattigdom. Återupplivandet av taroproduktionen i denna fattiga region kräver effektiva lösningar för att förhindra återkommande angrepp av P. colocasiae som nu har etablerat sig som ett endemiskt hot mot taro. Det finns en stor kunskapsbrist om sjukdomsutbredning, diagnos och sjukdomsbekämpning i dessa regioner. I Afrika odlas taro av fattiga bönder som inte har råd med dyra kemikalier och intensiva bekämpningsprogram för att kontrollera taro-mögel. För närvarande finns det få kemikalier tillgängliga på marknaden för att kontrollera taro-mögel. Det är således ett brådskande behov av att utveckla alternativa medel för patogenkontroll. Vi strävar efter att återuppliva den västafrikanska tarotillverkning speciellt i Benin och Nigeria genom att förstå epidemiologin hos P. colocasiae i Västafrika, även genom utveckling av programvara och verktyg, såsom drönare, värmekameror, handhållna mätare och mobilapplikationer för detektering och övervakning av P. colocasiae både i mark och växtdelar. Vi kommer också att undersöka närvaron av andra värdväxter som smittas av P. colocasiae, som kan spela en nyckelroll vid överlevnad av patogenen i frånvaro av huvudvärden, taro. Vi kommer även att utveckla förbättrade fenotypningsmetoder för screening av taro-kulturer för taro-sjukdomsresistens. Denna kunskap kommer att användas för att utbilda jordbrukare för bättre hanteringsmetoder och utvecklandet av nya strategier för sjukdomsbekämpning. Vi kommer också att använda hållbara biologiska kontrollmedel med låg kostnad och lågtoxiska växtbaserade produkter och kemikalier för att kontrollera taro-mögel Vi kommer att utbilda en forskare i storskalig fenotypning och fjärranalys för sjukdomsbedömning i Benin och Nigeria. PenSeq, en riktad gensekvenseringsmetod kommer att användas i P. colocasiae isolerade från fält för att identifiera effektorer som har en viktig roll för infektion samt gener in i patogenen som kan bli mål för kemisk kontroll. Kunskapen från detta sekvenseringsprojekt kommer att stödja taroförädlingsprogram. Vi kommer också att undersöka motståndsgener i olika sorter av taro för att identifiera resistens . Detta projekt är ett första steg för att identifiera sjukdomsframkallande gener i P. colocasiae och utforma specifika strategier för att kontrollera sjukdomen. Genom att förbättra upptäckten och kontrollen av sjukdommar i taro kommer vi att bidra till en ökning av taroproduktionen och en förbättring av tarotkvaliteten i låginkomstländer i Västafrika. Detta kommer att bidra till minskad fattigdom och ökad inkomst, sysselsättning och handel i Benin och Nigeria.

These are often incompatible and result in dissonant ideas regarding how to manage and respond to its state of pollution, degradation and capriciousness. The Ganges is a principal constituent of the sacred geography of South Asia, particularly to Hindus, at the same time as millions of people depend on it for daily sustenance. This duality informs how India and Bangladesh act to govern the river and seek to mobilise sustainable water management, yet it also affects how individuals and communities relate to the river’s welfare and possible use. Contradicting views of the river are manifest in religious and secular representations broadly and in concrete mismatches between state-level governance and lay beliefs. In order to examine state activities as well as the belief systems of individuals, the project consists of two components. The first probes attempts in India and Bangladesh to make the Ganges integral to development efforts and nation building, and the extent to which these relate to the basic tension. The second stresses how cultural and religious assumptions regarding the Ganges, in the form of lay beliefs, interact with environmental concerns ascribed to it. The objective is to grasp the ways in which discordant ideas about the river are reflected in state activities and in lay beliefs, and where we find overlaps and inconsistencies between these.

Dessutom för Ganges inte längre med sig sediment i samma utsträckning, vilket riskerar att på sikt urholka den grund på vilken delar av Bangladesh vilar. Att studera Ganges är av yttersta vikt för att kunna bidra till vår kunskap om hur bättre villkor skapas för människor som lever i fattigdom i regionen, med särskilt fokus på hur sekulära och religiösa antaganden om världen präglar och eventuellt hindrar såväl staters som lokala gemenskapers försök till progressivt, hållbart miljöarbete.I fokus för detta projekt står dels statens försök i såväl Indien som Bangladesh att göra Ganges ren, kontrollerbar och produktiv som en del av en vidare utvecklingssträvan, dels hur människors föreställningar om dess renhet och nedsmutsning, förmåga att ständigt förnyas och möjliga ändlighet, påverkar deras syn på hur floden ska hanteras.

Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a tick-borne zoonotic disease, endemic in Africa with high-case fatality rate. The disease has no treatment and vaccine. An epidemic would be catastrophic. Relative to other hemorrhagic diseases, Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) has received less attention, although previous studies in Kenya include fatal human cases, detection of CCHFV antibodies in humans and virus isolations from Hyalomma ticks. These studies show evidence of CCHFV activity in Kenya, however basic information about its epidemiology is lacking. The goal of this project is to leverage strengths and opportunities from Swedish and Kenyan researchers to determine the prevalence and distribution of CCHFV in humans, ticks, livestock and small wild mammals in Kenya. Further, we aim to characterize the strains of CCHFV that circulate in mammals and ticks in Kenya. The study locations present a distinct ecology and human-animal interactions: The Maasai Mara ecosystem and Ol Pejeta Conservancy. The trans-disciplinary team from Kenya and Sweden using the ‘One Health’ concept will generate new information that will be channeled to the Zoonotic Disease Unit-Kenya for inter-sectoral deliberations on policies, guidelines, and actions from project outcomes. Krim-Kongo-hemorragisk feber (CCHF) är ett blödarfebervirus som sprids via fästingar till däggdjur och människor kan få allvarliga symptom som leder till död. Enstaka studier har visat att CCHF finns i Kenya, men det finns ingen kunskap om hur vanlig den och hur mycket sjukdom den orsakar. CCHF-utbrott i andra länder har varit förödande, både avseende folkhälsa och socioekonomiska effekter, eftersom boskap är en reservoar och då kan försäljningsstopp och andra åtgärder medföra konsekvenser för hushåll och boskapsmarknader. CCHF kan också spridas av fästingar som förs på flyttfåglar mellan länder och kontinenter. Det förekommer många olika fästingar i Kenya, förmodligen på grund av en mångfald av djur som kan fungera som reservoarer. I Kenya har CCHF virus (CCHFV) isolerats i fästingar som samlas från boskap och CCHFV kan överföras direkt via infekterade blod- och djurprodukter. Snabba förändringar i markanvändningssystemen liksom den ökande inskränkningen av vildmarksområden i kombination med ökad boskapspopulation, kommer sannolikt att förändra vektor-värddynamik samt virusinfektionsdynamik, virulens och genetik. I Kenya är det okänt om CCHFV varierar beroende på reservoar och växling mellan flera interaktiva värdar skulle också kunna leda till RNA-virusmutationer i CCHFV.En undersökning bland hälsocentraler i landsbygdsområden i Kenya visade de flesta ansåg att  fästingar var inte orsaken till sjukdomar. I normala fall diagnosticeras inte CCHF på sjukhus i Kenya och troligen är sjukdomen därför underdiagnosticerad, eftersom både diagnostisk och teknisk kapacitet bland medicinska laboratorier saknas. För att förstå CCHFs utbredning och kunna bedöma riskfaktorer så är vårt mål att: bestämma seroprevalensen av CCHFV antikroppar hos människor, boskap (nötkreatur, får och getter) och små vilda däggdjur (gnagare och fladdermus); bestämma förekomst och genetisk mångfald av CCHFV i fästingar, boskap, små vilda däggdjur. Studieplatserna är Maasai Mara-ekosystemet, en gränsöverskridande region med intensiv växelverkan mellan människor, boskap och djurliv och Ol Pejeta Conservancy, ett helt inhägnat, blandat djurskyddsområde som omges av mänskliga bosättningar. Detta projekt kommer att använda ett tvärvetenskapligt team som kommer att tillämpa ett "One Health" -koncept. Projektet är designat i tre delar; (1) Virusepidemiologi (genom provtagning av människor, djurliv, boskap och fästingar följt av laboratorieanalyser (2) Kapacitetsuppbyggnad (bi-lateralt samarbete och överföring av resurser, kunskaper och tekniska färdigheter och (3) samhällsengagemang och ”empowerment” (öppna forum om förebyggande- och kontrollstrategier samt allmänhetens medvetenhet). Resultatet av projektet kommer att ge baslinjeinformation om CCHFV-epidemiologi i landet och speciellt exponeringsnivå, sjukdomsbörda, reservoarer och vektordiversitet. Ett förslag till en aktionsplan för kontinuerlig övervakning och rapportering kommer att upprättas tillsammans med bl.a. Zoonotiska sjukdomsenheten i Kenya (ZDU-Kenya). Det är en organisation som omfattar statliga myndigheter inom sektorerna medicinsk- och djursjukvård (boskap och vilda djur) i Kenya och har till uppgift att inrätta sektorsövergripande planer riktade till politisk diskussion och formulering om beredskap för sjukdomar, förebyggande åtgärder och kontroll. CCHFV är listad som en av de prioriterade sjukdomarna av ZDU-Kenya. Våra resultat kommer att delas med ZDU genom ett intresseforum för att möjliggöra intersektoriella perspektiv för styrning av framtida åtgärder mot CCHFV. Genom de tre delarna i vårt projekt kommer de kenyanska och svenska forskarna att ha möjligheter att (1) stärka framtida forskningssamarbeten, (2) möjliggöra kunskapsöverföring och erfarenheter (3) skapa hållbarhet. Svenska forskare kommer att lära sig fältprovtagning av boskap och vilda djur av de Kenyanska forskarna. Kenyanska forskare kommer att lära sig mer om laboratorieanalyserna, som utförs i Kenya.

The habitat overlap between cattle and buffalo makes cattle a ‘‘bridge species’’ or super spreader host for CCHFV and increases transmission risks to humans. The effect of animal management system on prevalence is depended on tick control on the cattle and not the animal per se. We concluded that buffalo, a host with a longer life span than livestock, is a reservoir and may serve as a sentinel No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-04366-1 Sweden The world has faced severe outbreaks of vector-borne diseases, some from viruses whose surveillance and activity was ignored. Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a tick-borne zoonotic disease, endemic in Africa with high-case fatality rate. The disease has no treatment and vaccine. An epidemic would be catastrophic. Relative to other hemorrhagic diseases, Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) has received less attention, although previous studies in Kenya include fatal human cases, detection of CCHFV antibodies in humans and virus isolations from Hyalomma ticks. These studies show evidence of CCHFV activity in Kenya, however basic information about its epidemiology is lacking. The goal of this project is to leverage strengths and opportunities from Swedish and Kenyan researchers to determine the prevalence and distribution of CCHFV in humans, ticks, livestock and small wild mammals in Kenya. Further, we aim to characterize the strains of CCHFV that circulate in mammals and ticks in Kenya. The study locations present a distinct ecology and human-animal interactions: The Maasai Mara ecosystem and Ol Pejeta Conservancy. The trans-disciplinary team from Kenya and Sweden using the ‘One Health’ concept will generate new information that will be channeled to the Zoonotic Disease Unit-Kenya for inter-sectoral deliberations on policies, guidelines, and actions from project outcomes. Krim-Kongo-hemorragisk feber (CCHF) är ett blödarfebervirus som sprids via fästingar till däggdjur och människor kan få allvarliga symptom som leder till död. Enstaka studier har visat att CCHF finns i Kenya, men det finns ingen kunskap om hur vanlig den och hur mycket sjukdom den orsakar. CCHF-utbrott i andra länder har varit förödande, både avseende folkhälsa och socioekonomiska effekter, eftersom boskap är en reservoar och då kan försäljningsstopp och andra åtgärder medföra konsekvenser för hushåll och boskapsmarknader. CCHF kan också spridas av fästingar som förs på flyttfåglar mellan länder och kontinenter. Det förekommer många olika fästingar i Kenya, förmodligen på grund av en mångfald av djur som kan fungera som reservoarer.

In this project, we collaborate with the NGO BRAC in Uganda to evaluate the impact of an intervention that aims to empower female farmers by improving their soft skills and their aspirations. In addition to studying how these interventions change female farmers´ productivity, we evaluate the effects of providing information about soil testing services and study how the empowerment program affects the take up of these techniques by female relative to male farmers. The project will shed light on the extent to which lack of soft skills and aspirations may be driving the gender gap in technology adoption and agricultural productivity. Det är ett väletablerat faktum att avkastningen på mark som odlas av kvinnor i Afrika söder om Sahara är lägre än den på mark odlad av män. Kvinnor är i genomsnitt mindre benägna att använda sig av ny teknik eller mer produktiva insatsvaror, men orsakerna till varför dessa skillnader existerar är oklara. I Uganda utgör till exempel kvinnor 50 % av arbetskraften inom jordbrukssektorn; likväl är avkastningen på den mark de odlar 17.5 % lägre än männens avkastning.I det här projektet kommer vi att undersöka två potentiella förklaringar bakom könsskillnaden i jordbruksproduktiviteten. Den första förklaringen innebär att kvinnor saknar de nödvändiga mjuka icke-kognitiva färdigheterna som krävs för att få tillgång till ny teknik och insatsvaror som i sin tur möjliggör produktiva investeringar. Den andra förklaringen handlar om en brist på kvinnliga förebilder som kvinnor som kan identifiera med. Genom att informera om driftiga kvinnor som driver framgångsrika jordbruksföretag kan kunskapen om dessa förebilder bidra till att kvinnor höjer sin ambitionsnivå och därmed produktiviteten. För att pröva dessa två förklaringar samarbetar vi med den icke-statliga organisationen BRAC i Uganda. Vi kommer att utvärdera ett nytt program som fokuserar på att öka kvinnliga jordbrukares egenmakt via förbättrade icke-kognitiva färdigheter samt stärkt målmedvetenhet. I vårt randomiserade fältexperiment kommer vi att mäta effekten av de två potentiella förklaringarna och undersöka hur de kompletterar varandra. Vi kommer även att studera effekten av att sprida information om en test-tjänst som mäter typen och kvaliteten i den odlingsbara jorden. Informationen möjliggör för jordbrukare – kvinnor som män – att öka produktiviteten genom att använda den teknik och de insatsvaror som bäst passar deras mark. Inom ramen för vår studie kommer vi att undersöka om kvinnor och män är mer eller mindre benägna att använda test-tjänsten och om gapet mellan könen är mindre för kvinnor som genomgått egenmaktsinterventionen. Experimentet belyser i vilken utsträckning bristen på mjuka färdigheter och/eller målmedvetenhet begränsar teknikanvändning bland kvinnor (relativt män) och om ett egenmaktsprogram som riktar sig till kvinnliga bönder kan bidra till att minska eventuella skillnader mellan könen. Resultaten av projektet kommer att klargöra i vilken utsträckning bristen på mjuka färdigheter och målmedvetenhet orsakar skillnader i jordbruksproduktiviteten mellan kvinnor och män. Projektets slutsatser kan hjälpa beslutsfattare att utforma policy som ökar kvinnliga jordbrukares egenmakt samt höjer produktiviteten hos jordbruksföretag som drivs av kvinnor. På så vis bidrar forskningen till två av FN:s 17 globala mål för hållbar utveckling: jämställdhet samt anständiga arbetsvillkor och ekonomisk tillväxt. Genom att förbättra vår förståelse av hur könsskillnader i jordbruket drivs av mjuka färdigheter och målmedvetenhet kan resultaten ligga till grund för policybeslut som syftar till att höja tillväxten inom jordbruket och öka jämställdhet mellan könen.

Integration of CSE in schools in Zambia, just like in many other low and middle-income countries (LMICs) has not been optimal. Research that explores how such integration shapes sexuality decisions among adolescents is very scarce if not absent. Further few studies take a gender lens to evaluate mechanisms shaping integration of the programmes. This community based participatory research driven realist evaluation project aims to ascertain: why, how, and under what conditions the integration of sexuality education into the schools will lead (or not) to improved knowledge and capacity to make positive sexuality decisions among adolescents, including more equal gender relations.We will adopt at step-wise approach to the realist evaluation and embed it in participatory research phases to 1) map and analyse challenges towards integration 2) develop an initial program theory that proposes an explanation of how the integration of a sexuality education into the school setting can promote positive sexuality decisions among adolescents, 3) test the programme theory through multiple-case studies applying a quantitative survey, photovoice elicitation, observations as well as qualitative interviews and 4) finally propose a refined programme theory and set of recommendations which will provide useful lessons to guide integration processes and actions. Ungdomar har olika behov jämfört med vuxna, särskilt när det gäller sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter (SRHR). Försummelse av deras särskilda behov leder till negativa konsekvenser såsom oönskade graviditeter, sexuellt överförbara infektioner och sexuellt våld. Varje år föder cirka 7,3 miljoner flickor under 18 år barn i Zambia och andra låg- och medelinkomstländer (LMIC) och cirka 10 miljoner flickor gifter sig, 46% av dem i Afrika söder om Sahara.Sexualundervisning i skolor är en möjlig strategi för att stärka SRHR bland ungdomar. 2014 införde Zambia sexualundervisning i alla skolor i linje med internationella rekommendationer.

Integrationsprocessen av sexualundervisning i Zambia och andra LMICs har varit komplex och visar på stor variation.Internationella studier visar att de flesta nationella program för sexualundervisning möter stora utmaningar.

Även när läroplanen uppfyller internationell standard, finns det utmaningar med genomförandegrad och kvaliteten på undervisningen.

Integration of CSE in schools in Zambia, just like in many other low and middle-income countries (LMICs) has not been optimal. Research that explores how such integration shapes sexuality decisions among adolescents is very scarce if not absent. Further few studies take a gender lens to evaluate mechanisms shaping integration of the programmes. This community based participatory research driven realist evaluation project aims to ascertain: why, how, and under what conditions the integration of sexuality education into the schools will lead (or not) to improved knowledge and capacity to make positive sexuality decisions among adolescents, including more equal gender relations.We will adopt at step-wise approach to the realist evaluation and embed it in participatory research phases to 1) map and analyse challenges towards integration 2) develop an initial program theory that proposes an explanation of how the integration of a sexuality education into the school setting can promote positive sexuality decisions among adolescents, 3) test the programme theory through multiple-case studies applying a quantitative survey, photovoice elicitation, observations as well as qualitative interviews and 4) finally propose a refined programme theory and set of recommendations which will provide useful lessons to guide integration processes and actions. Ungdomar har olika behov jämfört med vuxna, särskilt när det gäller sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter (SRHR). Försummelse av deras särskilda behov leder till negativa konsekvenser såsom oönskade graviditeter, sexuellt överförbara infektioner och sexuellt våld. Varje år föder cirka 7,3 miljoner flickor under 18 år barn i Zambia och andra låg- och medelinkomstländer (LMIC) och cirka 10 miljoner flickor gifter sig, 46% av dem i Afrika söder om Sahara.Sexualundervisning i skolor är en möjlig strategi för att stärka SRHR bland ungdomar. 2014 införde Zambia sexualundervisning i alla skolor i linje med internationella rekommendationer. Läroplanen innehåller följande nyckelområden; relationer, värderingar och rättigheter, könsroller/genus, våld, kroppslig integritet och samtycke, kroppen och dess utveckling, sexualitet och sexuell identitet, graviditet samt hiv-prevention.

The disease has since than caused the death of >1 million pigs only in China. The situation is not under control, and the socioeconomic impact is likely to be massive. With this in mind the overall aim of our network is to develop a research agenda targeting the understanding of how attitudes, behaviour and practices within the pork value chain in the new settings in Asia affect disease dynamics, spread, and the potential for controlling the disease. Project activities include workshops, pilotstudies, networking and to compose research proposals addressing issues that have been identified as important for reaching the project goals of controlling the disease development and thus, the risk for long-term establishment and persistence of the disease in the regional pig population. Syftet med det föreslagna nätverksprojektet är att skapa ett långsiktigt tvärvetenskapligt samarbete mellan länder i Sydostasien, Östafrika och Sverige fokuserat runt den allvarliga, smittsamma grissjukdomen afrikansk svinpest (ASF). Hälften av världens grisar finns i Kina, uppemot hälften av dessa beräknas hållas på småskaliga jordbruk eller som enstaka hushållsgrisar. Även i många länder i Sydostasien är grispopulationen mycket stor och gristätheten hög, med en blandning av kommersiella och småskaliga besättningar. Dessa länder har de senaste decennierna haft en positiv ekonomisk utveckling, men landsbygdsbor har ofta halkat efter och fattigdomsklyftor mellan stad och land är betydande. För fattiga landsbygdsbor i Asien är grishållning en viktig inkomstkälla och en social trygghet.   Afrikansk svinpest drabbar tamgrisar och europeiska vildsvin med akut, blödarfeber som i de flesta fall leder till döden. Sjukdomen orsakas av ett virus och inget vaccin eller behandling finns. När djuren är sjuka finns virus i alla kroppens delar, men med högst koncentration i blod. I de länderl där sjukdomen kontrolleras tillämpas förebyggande åtgärder som ökad biosäkerhet, och karantän och utslaktning vid konstaterade utbrott. Historiskt cirkulerar viruset på den afrikanska kontinenten söder om Sahara, men 2007 introducerades sjukdomen till Kaukasus och spreds därifrån norr- och västerut till öst- och Centraleuropa. Under 2018 gjorde sjukdomen ett stort geografiskt hopp till Kina där smittspridningen sedan dess skett med enorm hastighet. Under de första månaderna av 2019 nåddes Vietnam och Kambodja.  I Afrika söder om Sahara där sjukdomen funnits länge är det väl känt hur sjukdomen sprids och hur den kan kontrolleras. Grisproduktionen ökar i många länder, men är fortfarande oftast småskalig och del av ett blandad småsklaigt jordbruk med andra djur som diversifierar inkomster och risker. När sjukdomen etablerats i Europa har nya smittspridningsscenarion uppträtt. Europeiska vidsvin verkar spela en stor roll för upprätthållandet av smittan. När sjukdomen nu erövrar en ännu en ny kontinent är många faktorer angående smittspridning och kontroll fortfarande okända. Det som dock är känt, och konstant i olika länder och scenarion, är att människors aktiviteter och beteenden spelar stor roll för smittspridningen. Smittan sprids längs med handelsrutter och i de nätverk där grisar och produkter förflyttas och byter ägare. Likaså beständigt är de stora sociala och ekonomiska konsekvenser som utbrott får för människor i grisvärdekedjan, och de allvarlig dkurskyddskonsekvenserna. I det föreslagna projektet kommer befintlig kunskap och erfarenheter från många års forskning om ASF i dess ursprungliga miljö söder om Sahara användas och delas med forskare från Sverige och nyligen drabbade länder i Asien. Från de nyligen smittade länderna finns erfarenheter av täta grispopulationer, och av storskalig bekämpning som saknas från Afrika. Ett forskningsnätverk för nord-syd-syd-utbyte av kunskap och erfarenheter kommer skapas och pilotstudier genomföras med inriktning på förståelsen av hur människors kunskap, attityder och beteende påverkar sjukdomsdynamik, spridning och möjligheten att kontrollera sjukdomsutvecklingen och därmed risken för långvarig etablering och uthållighet hos sjukdom i den regionala grispopulationen i Sydostasien och Kina. Resultaten av pilotstudierna kommer kommuniceras inom nätverket, och utifrån dessa kommer forskningsansökningar för större internationella utlysningar tas fram. Baserat på den nya kunskap som kommer uppstå i detta projekt, och från den framtida forskning det lägger grunden till, kommer kreativa problemlösningar och engagemang från aktörer inom sektorn kunna omsättas till effektiva kontrollmetoder som anpassas till lokala förutsättningar, och som tar hänsyn till småböndernas dagliga liv och beroende av grisar för sitt uppehälle.

Yields are low, contributing to income gaps between rich and poor countries.Land is not like other commodities, and historically, private markets have been slow to reallocate land. Economic theory suggests several important constraints that can impede efficient land trade. Importantly, they arise even in the presence of tradable property rights. Governments have responded with large-scale centralized land reforms or land consolidation programs, such as Storskiftet and Enskiftet in Sweden, or Denmark´s Jordfordelingsloven. But such programs are costly, challenging to implement effectively, and sometimes coercive.We propose to use the tools of market design to develop new solutions that address key frictions in the land market. In this proposal we describe a three-stage project in Uganda that seeks to 1) measure key properties of the land trade problem, 2) develop a computerized trading platform adapted to those properties, and 3) evaluate its performance, relative to status quo forms of trade, in a realistic field setting.The ultimate goal is to help poor rural households achieve a more efficient land allocation through voluntary trade. Better-functioning land markets have the potential to improve the lives of some of the poorest people in the world, and to contribute to the development process. Jordbruket i mindre utvecklade länder kännetecknas av små, fragmenterade lantbruk, liten mekaniseringsgrad och ett misslyckande med att allokera de största lantbruken till de bästa lantbrukarna. Avkastningarna är låga, vilket är en viktig bidragande orsak till inkomstklyftorna mellan rika och fattiga länder.Historiskt sett har privata marknader för mark varit långsamma när det gäller att omallokera mark. Mark är inte som andra handelsvaror och ekonomisk teori föreslår flera unika egenskaper som kan förhindra en effektiv handel med mark. Det är viktigt att dessa även uppstår när det finns starka äganderätter som det går att handla med. Regeringar har reagerat med storskaliga centraliserade markreformer eller markkonsolideringsprogram, så som Storskiftet och Enskiftet i Sverige, eller Danmarks Jordfordelingsloven. Men sådana program är kostnadskrävande, en utmaning att implementera på ett effektivt sätt och ibland tvingande. De kan vara speciellt svåra i sådana miljöer som mindre utvecklade länder med en begränsad statskapacitet.Vår plan är att använda verktygen för marknadsutformning (s k market design) för att utveckla nya lösningar som riktar sig mot avgörande friktioner på marknaden för mark. Syftet är att hjälpa fattiga hushåll på landsbygden att åstadkomma en mer effektiv allokering av mark genom frivillig handel. Mer välfungerande marknader för mark har potentialen att förbättra livet för några av de fattigaste människorna i världen och att bidra till utvecklingsprocessen.Detta är ett nytt forskningsområde inom utvecklingsforskning, med lite tidigare arbete att bygga på. Så vi framställer ett iterativt projekt som först försöker mäta avgörande egenskaper i en miljö för handeln med mark, utveckla en lösning i form av en datorbaserad handelsplattform och testa den i en fältmiljö.Först kommer vi att genomföra en övning med en kartläggning av jordbitar i Masaka, Uganda. Masaka har fragmenterad mark och små lantbruk så att handel med mark blir en framträdande fråga. Vi kommer att kartlägga gränserna för jordbitar, ägarstruktur, och egenskaper, såväl som ägarnas egenskaper och preferenser, i ett representativt urval av byar. Detta kommer att göra det möjligt för oss att till fullo beskriva en typisk miljö där handel äger rum. Existerande dataset mäter sådana egenskaper som fragmentering, men våra data kommer att göra det möjligt för oss att gå längre. Exempelvis kan vi mäta komplexiteten i handelskedjor som skulle behöva skapas för att eliminera fragmenteringen.Med kartorna till vårt förfogande, kommer vi att utveckla en mjukvara för att göra ett experiment med ”kombinerat utbyte av mark”. Utbytet kommer att använda som insats en karta över jordbitar och äganderätter som utformats för att imitera nyckelegenskaper som mäts i kartläggningsövningen. Det kommer att underlätta handeln mellan deltagarna som kan agera både som köpare och säljare (de kan vilja expandera, krympa eller flytta sitt lantbruk). Det kommer att göra det möjligt för dem att utrycka starka preferenser för olika möjligheter till handel och organisera komplicerade transaktioner för deras räkning. Vi tror att denna mekanism passar väl för miljön för handel med mark. Utvecklingsprocessen kommer att inkludera labbtester av nyckelegenskaper för utformningen.Slutligen testar vi för utbytet i fält genom att använda ett storskaligt lab-in-field experiment i byar i Masaka, Uganda. Representativa grupper av lantbrukare kommer att inbjudas till sammankomster där de tilldelas ”markrätter” på en artificiell karta och en experimentvaluta. Kartan kommer att utformas så att den överensstämmer med nyckelegenskaper i den verkliga miljön. Vi kommer att jämföra effektiviteten och rättvisan i handelsutfall genom att använda vår datoriserade plattform, till de som erhållits med enbart en fri handelsform. Sådana tester är avgörande, eftersom en mekanism som är välfungerande i teorin kanske inte är det i praktiken.Det långsiktiga målet med vår forskningsagenda är att utveckla implementerbara, storskaliga lösningar för handel med mark som kan användas för att underlätta verklig handel. Detta projekt utgör ett kritiskt steg mot det målet. Det kommer att skapa en ny förståelse för komplexiteten i miljön för handel med mark, en ny flexibel plattform för handel som i framtiden kan anpassas till andel med verklig mark och bevis för dess effektivitet i ett fältsammanhang med representativa deltagare.

Exempelvis kan vi mäta komplexiteten i handelskedjor som skulle behöva skapas för att eliminera fragmenteringen.Med kartorna till vårt förfogande, kommer vi att utveckla en mjukvara för att göra ett experiment med ”kombinerat utbyte av mark”. Utbytet kommer att använda som insats en karta över jordbitar och äganderätter som utformats för att imitera nyckelegenskaper som mäts i kartläggningsövningen. Det kommer att underlätta handeln mellan deltagarna som kan agera både som köpare och säljare (de kan vilja expandera, krympa eller flytta sitt lantbruk). Det kommer att göra det möjligt för dem att utrycka starka preferenser för olika möjligheter till handel och organisera komplicerade transaktioner för deras räkning. Vi tror att denna mekanism passar väl för miljön för handel med mark. Utvecklingsprocessen kommer att inkludera labbtester av nyckelegenskaper för utformningen.Slutligen testar vi för utbytet i fält genom att använda ett storskaligt lab-in-field experiment i byar i Masaka, Uganda. Representativa grupper av lantbrukare kommer att inbjudas till sammankomster där de tilldelas ”markrätter” på en artificiell karta och en experimentvaluta. Kartan kommer att utformas så att den överensstämmer med nyckelegenskaper i den verkliga miljön. Vi kommer att jämföra effektiviteten och rättvisan i handelsutfall genom att använda vår datoriserade plattform, till de som erhållits med enbart en fri handelsform. Sådana tester är avgörande, eftersom en mekanism som är välfungerande i teorin kanske inte är det i praktiken.Det långsiktiga målet med vår forskningsagenda är att utveckla implementerbara, storskaliga lösningar för handel med mark som kan användas för att underlätta verklig handel. Detta projekt utgör ett kritiskt steg mot det målet. Det kommer att skapa en ny förståelse för komplexiteten i miljön för handel med mark, en ny flexibel plattform för handel som i framtiden kan anpassas till andel med verklig mark och bevis för dess effektivitet i ett fältsammanhang med representativa deltagare.

However, coffee production is threatened by climate change and disease outbreaks, with severe consequences for poor farmers and the rich biodiversity associated with shade-grown coffee. In this three-year project, we will take a transdisciplinary approach to improve farmer’s livelihood, conserve biodiversity, and preserve the world’s only genetic reservoir of wild coffee. We will use questionnaires to assess the potential, tools and willingness of smallholder farmers to make their farms climate-proof and shift coffee production to higher altitudes, and field surveys to establish how biodiversity and wild coffee genetic diversity may sustainably control pests and diseases in the existing and future coffee growing areas. We will then combine these data with a down-scaled climate model to create future coffee suitability maps, integrating both limitations due to coffee diseases and management opportunities through altitudinal shifts, biocontrol, shade cover and irrigation. We will end by publishing a synthetic report with climate change adaptation scenarios, which will form the basis for a series of multi-stakeholder workshops. Overall, our project will take a transdisciplinary and practical approach to find sustainable solutions to the challenge that coffee smallholder farmer’s face under a changing climate. Kaffe spelar en central roll både för den lokala ekonomin och biodiversiteten på många platser i Etiopien. Förutom att vara en uppskattad dryck som man är stolt över utgör kaffe den viktigaste inkomsten för miljoner av fattiga småbrukare. Kaffets ursprung är skogarna i sydvästra Etiopien där det fortfarande växer vilt och har en hög genetisk mångfald. I Etiopien odlas kaffe alltid under skuggträd och kaffe är känt för att vara en gröda där man både kan få ut ekonomi och bevara mycket biodiversitet och ekosystemtjänster på samma mark. Dessutom har det visat sig att avskogningen gått mycket fortare där man inte odlat kaffe jämfört där man odlat kaffe. Kaffe har således en nyckelroll att spela både för den lokala ekonomin och för bevarandet av skogarna och biodiversiteten i Etiopien. Ett antal uppmärksammade studier har visat att den globala kaffeproduktionen hotas av klimatförändringar och även att de vilda kaffet (och dess genetiska mångfald) hotas av allt högre temperaturer. Även vissa sjukdomar som går på kaffe anses öka globalt. Men de globala varningarna måste nedskalas till en lokal nivå för att bli meningsfulla för småbrukare och lokala administratörer. I detta projekt skall vi undersöka vilka konsekvenser sådana globala förutsägelser kan få för lokala småbrukare och hur de kan anpassa sitt brukande för att behålla ett uthålligt brukande av kaffe. Projektet är relevant för både ekonomisk, social och miljömässig hållbarhet, även om vår kompetens är starkast inom uthållighet och anpassning i relation till klimat, miljö och markanvändning. Hur kaffeodling kommer förändras kommer vara en viktig nyckel till hur både ekonomi, samhälle och naturen kommer utvecklas i sydvästra Etiopien. Projektet är uppdelat i fyra delprojekt som är tydligt ihoplänkade på temat kaffeproduktion och klimatförändringar med fokus på etablering av kaffeodling på högre höjder. Vi kommer arbeta i ett landskap i sydvästra Etiopien som har både skog och odlingsbygder och en stor variation i lokala klimat och påverkan från sjukdomar på kaffe. 1) Målet är att undersöka de lokala förutsättningarna för olika slags anpassningar till ett förändrat klimat. Vi kommer här göra fältundersökningar för att kvantifiera i vilken utsträckning bönder redan har gjort anpassningar och hur de ser på förutsättningar för framtida anpassningar. Vi kommer fokusera på de varmaste platserna (låga altituder) och de kallaste platserna (höga altituder). 2) Målet är att studera dynamiken hos djur, svampar och mikroorganismer som kan ha både positiv och negativ inverkan på kaffeodling i de nyetablerade områdena i jämförelse med i områden där kaffe odlats länge. Då kan vi öka förståelsen av de sammanvägda hoten av klimatförändringar och sjukdomar. 3) Målet är att producera en högupplöst karta för lämplighet för kaffeodling. Vi kommer göra det genom att kombinera fyra olika källor till information: a) en nedskalad klimatmodell b) kunskap om olika sätt att odla med olika slags skuggträd och utbredningen av kaffe i befintliga skogar, c) kunskap om hur de lokala svampsjukdomarna styrs av mikroklimat och odlingssystem och d) olika globala/regionala scenarier för klimatförändringar. 4) Slutligen i delprojekt fyra vill vi syntetisera kunskapen från de tre olika empiriska del-projekten i både en vetenskapliga och populärvetenskapliga format. Docent Ayco Tack på Stockholms universitet (SU), kommer leda projektet.

Prof. Erik Kjellström på SMHI är meteorolog och kommer vara involverad i klimatmodellerna och Dr. Lowe Börjesson är kulturgeograf på SU och bidrar med erfarenheter och metodik kring hur man studerar hur småbrukare i Afrika anpassar sin markanvändning.

The existing vaccine does not provide a full protection, and drug resistance is rising. The lack of correlates of protection hampers the generation of new vaccines. Immune responses in TB lung lesions are central for such understanding, since these account for containment or systemic spreading and transmission. Using, in situ sequencing, a powerful spatially resolved transcriptomic method, the immune topography of the Tuberculosis lesions in lung biopsies from patients (with latent or active TB, co-infected or not with HIV) and non-human primates (vaccinated and protected and with latent or active TB or with SIV coinfection) will be defined.Specifically, ≥ 250 transcripts coding for innate and adaptive immune response as well as Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) molecules regulated in response to immune stress will be aligned with the tissue morphology at cellular resolution. Maps of immune transcripts in different granulomas in the same lung, in diverse areas of the granuloma and in proximity to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) bacilli will be outlined. Networks of co-expressed transcripts will be identified. The heterogeneity between lesions and also the common networks in various lesions will be defined in annotated areas and in a non-supervised manner.Thus, immune topography involved in protection against progression to active TB will be defined, providing a guide in development of new vaccines. Tuberkulos (TBC) skördar ett mänskligt liv var tredje minut och har dödat fler människor än någon annan infektionssjukdom under hela mänsklighetens historia. En tredjedel av världens befolkning är infekterad av bakterien Mycobacterium tuberculosis som orsakar sjukdomen TBC. Bara hos 10 procent av dessa bryter sjukdomen ut, medan de andra förblir latent infekterade med M. tuberculosis. En person med latent tuberkulos (LTBC) har inga sjukdomssymtom och är inte smittsam, men är bärare av tuberkelbakterien och har en liten risk att insjukna i aktiv tuberkulos i framtiden. Ändå dör ungefär två miljoner TBC patienter varje år världen över. Varför sjukdomen bryter ut hos vissa individer men inte hos andra är inte heller helt klart, men samspelet mellan immunförsvar och bakterier är centralt i infektionens utveckling.Det blir allt svårare för sjukvården att kontrollera TBC i takt med att allt fler bakteriestammar blir resistenta mot antibiotika. Problemet kompliceras ytterligare av HIV-epidemin, vilket gör att människor som är infekterade med HIV är mycket känsliga för TBC. Detta visar också att cellmedierat immunförsvaret som försvagas av HIV, är centralt i TBC kontrollen.Hittills är vaccinet Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), som utvecklades för nästan 100 år sedan, det enda godkända vaccinet för förebyggande av TBC. BCG administreras till nyfödda barn över hela världen. Även om BCG-vaccinering skyddar småbarn från de allvarligaste konsekvenserna av TBC-sjukdom, ger den dåligt skydd mot lungsjukdom hos ungdomar och vuxna. Olika vaccinkandidater är under utveckling men hittills har inga av dessa godkänts för användning. Ett problem som väsentligt försenar utvecklingen av nya TBC-vacciner är att effekten inte kan förutsägas. Den vetenskapliga grunden för utveckling av något effektivt vaccin innefattar en signifikant förståelse av immunologiska mekanismer för skydd mot infektion eller sjukdom; molekylära korrelaten av dessa mekanismer skulle minska behovet av stora, fleråriga effektstudier.M. tuberculosis infekterar en typ av vita blodkroppar som heter makrofager. Makrofager bildar med lymfocyter och andra immunceller inflammatoriska härdar i lungorna som går under namnet granulom. Granulomet hindrar inte bara M. tuberculosis bakterierna från att spridas utan det tillhandahåller också en miljö där immunsystemets celler kan kommunicera. M. tuberculosis inte alltid elimineras i ett granulom. De kan istället komma in i ett vilande tillstånd, vilket resulterar i en latent smitta. Alternativt kan bakterierna föröka sig i granulom och kan sprida sig i kroppen, eller hostas upp och smitta omgivningen. Det är i granulomet som utvecklingen av TBC infektionen avgörs. Skilda typer av granulom innehåller en mängd olika immunceller. Dessa är belägna i olika områden av det humana TBC-granulomet. Det är deras exakta lokalisering, fördelning, funktion och samordning som gör granulomet effektivt för att kontrollera bakteriell tillväxt. Forskarna vet inte exakt hur detta går till, vilket försvårar skapandet av effektiva vaccin.Vi kommer jämföra granulomstrukturen hos biopsier eller autopsier från individer med latent eller aktiv TBC från Pakistan och Brasilien. Dessutom kommer autopsier från patienter co-infekterade med HIV-TBC att studeras.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-04725-1 Sweden Close to 2 million individuals die every year from Tuberculosis (TB). The existing vaccine does not provide a full protection, and drug resistance is rising. The lack of correlates of protection hampers the generation of new vaccines. Immune responses in TB lung lesions are central for such understanding, since these account for containment or systemic spreading and transmission. Using, in situ sequencing, a powerful spatially resolved transcriptomic method, the immune topography of the Tuberculosis lesions in lung biopsies from patients (with latent or active TB, co-infected or not with HIV) and non-human primates (vaccinated and protected and with latent or active TB or with SIV coinfection) will be defined.Specifically, ≥ 250 transcripts coding for innate and adaptive immune response as well as Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) molecules regulated in response to immune stress will be aligned with the tissue morphology at cellular resolution. Maps of immune transcripts in different granulomas in the same lung, in diverse areas of the granuloma and in proximity to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) bacilli will be outlined. Networks of co-expressed transcripts will be identified. The heterogeneity between lesions and also the common networks in various lesions will be defined in annotated areas and in a non-supervised manner.Thus, immune topography involved in protection against progression to active TB will be defined, providing a guide in development of new vaccines. Tuberkulos (TBC) skördar ett mänskligt liv var tredje minut och har dödat fler människor än någon annan infektionssjukdom under hela mänsklighetens historia. En tredjedel av världens befolkning är infekterad av bakterien Mycobacterium tuberculosis som orsakar sjukdomen TBC. Bara hos 10 procent av dessa bryter sjukdomen ut, medan de andra förblir latent infekterade med M. tuberculosis. En person med latent tuberkulos (LTBC) har inga sjukdomssymtom och är inte smittsam, men är bärare av tuberkelbakterien och har en liten risk att insjukna i aktiv tuberkulos i framtiden. Ändå dör ungefär två miljoner TBC patienter varje år världen över. Varför sjukdomen bryter ut hos vissa individer men inte hos andra är inte heller helt klart, men samspelet mellan immunförsvar och bakterier är centralt i infektionens utveckling.Det blir allt svårare för sjukvården att kontrollera TBC i takt med att allt fler bakteriestammar blir resistenta mot antibiotika. Problemet kompliceras ytterligare av HIV-epidemin, vilket gör att människor som är infekterade med HIV är mycket känsliga för TBC. Detta visar också att cellmedierat immunförsvaret som försvagas av HIV, är centralt i TBC kontrollen.Hittills är vaccinet Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), som utvecklades för nästan 100 år sedan, det enda godkända vaccinet för förebyggande av TBC. BCG administreras till nyfödda barn över hela världen. Även om BCG-vaccinering skyddar småbarn från de allvarligaste konsekvenserna av TBC-sjukdom, ger den dåligt skydd mot lungsjukdom hos ungdomar och vuxna. Olika vaccinkandidater är under utveckling men hittills har inga av dessa godkänts för användning. Ett problem som väsentligt försenar utvecklingen av nya TBC-vacciner är att effekten inte kan förutsägas. Den vetenskapliga grunden för utveckling av något effektivt vaccin innefattar en signifikant förståelse av immunologiska mekanismer för skydd mot infektion eller sjukdom; molekylära korrelaten av dessa mekanismer skulle minska behovet av stora, fleråriga effektstudier.M. tuberculosis infekterar en typ av vita blodkroppar som heter makrofager. Makrofager bildar med lymfocyter och andra immunceller inflammatoriska härdar i lungorna som går under namnet granulom. Granulomet hindrar inte bara M. tuberculosis bakterierna från att spridas utan det tillhandahåller också en miljö där immunsystemets celler kan kommunicera. M. tuberculosis inte alltid elimineras i ett granulom. De kan istället komma in i ett vilande tillstånd, vilket resulterar i en latent smitta. Alternativt kan bakterierna föröka sig i granulom och kan sprida sig i kroppen, eller hostas upp och smitta omgivningen. Det är i granulomet som utvecklingen av TBC infektionen avgörs. Skilda typer av granulom innehåller en mängd olika immunceller. Dessa är belägna i olika områden av det humana TBC-granulomet. Det är deras exakta lokalisering, fördelning, funktion och samordning som gör granulomet effektivt för att kontrollera bakteriell tillväxt. Forskarna vet inte exakt hur detta går till, vilket försvårar skapandet av effektiva vaccin.Vi kommer jämföra granulomstrukturen hos biopsier eller autopsier från individer med latent eller aktiv TBC från Pakistan och Brasilien. Dessutom kommer autopsier från patienter co-infekterade med HIV-TBC att studeras. Vi kommer att använda ”in situ sekvenciering”; en ny bildteknik som simultant kan belysa olika immunförsvarskomponenter på cell- och molekylär nivå, för att förstå samspelet mellan de olika immuncellerna och deras funktioner i granulom.Makaker, en utmärkt modell för att studera både latent och aktiv TBC, visar en rad patologier som märkbart liknar den som ses hos människor.

AIR will conduct inventory, knowledge exchange, small-scale pilot studies in order to 1) build capacity of providing all necessary ground based measurements in support of the NASA mission MAIA, and 2) produce joint research applications of high scientific quality.

The aim of AIR, including JPL/Caltech/NASA, UCLA, USC, and University of Minnesota, is to strengthen collaborations and increase capacity building. AIR will bring researchers of different backgrounds together and act as the needed impetus for long-term continuity of research efforts.

Forskning på luftföroreningshalter och på hur olika egenskaper hos luftföroreningar påverkar vår hälsa har på sistone expanderat från Europa och Nordamerika till Asien och Sydamerika. Dock har Afrika – en kontinent med enormt snabb urbanisering – blivit lämnad i kölvattnet i denna strävan efter renare luft och bättre hälsa, med enorma brister på luftföroreningsdata. Forskare från höginkomstländer, som till exempel Sverige, har svårt att utforma och genomföra bra studier i Afrika trots vår stora tillgång på mätinstrument och analysmetoder. Möjligheten att genomföra bra forskning i Afrika begränsas av svårigheter att förstå hur akuta sociala problem, vanor, och kulturella normer påverkar genomförbarheten av studier som tidigare visat sig fungera bra i Sverige. Andra mer praktiska problem som begränsar möjligheten att genomföra studier och att implementera lösningar är bristen på stabilt elnät och tillgången till wifi.  I Afrika är man utsatt för en dubbel börda av luftföroreningar. Utomhus är halterna mycket högre än i de flesta andra delar av världen på grund av en gammal fordonsflotta som kör på oren diesel, och på att man hanterar sina sopor genom att bränna dem utomhus. Inomhus är halterna  ofta 10-100 gånger högre än de höga utomhushalterna, eftersom 93 % av befolkningen lagar mat och värmer sina hus med fasta bränslen (träkol, ved och torkad kodynga). I Etiopien, Afrikas näst folkrikaste land, tror man att 5,5 % av alla dödsfall är kopplade till luftföroreningar. Dessa uppskattningar är troligen i underkant eftersom de, på grund av att data från Afrika saknas, är baserade på effekter av luftföroreningar fastställda i andra delar av världen, där föroreningskällorna är helt annorlunda.Baserat på våra erfarenheter av, och svårigheter med, att nyligen försöka kartlägga luftföroreningarna i Adama, Etiopens tredje största stad, står det helt klart för oss att ett framgångsrikt arbete med att minska luftföroreningar, och därmed öka hälsan hos befolkningen, bara kan göras i ett nära samarbete med berörda parter. Vi föreslår därför uppbyggandet av ett nätverk, AIR (Air pollution Impact Resources) mellan Sverige och Etiopien.AIR kommer att baseras på en kapacitetsuppbyggnad som ska komma både Sverige och Etiopien till godo. Kapacitetsuppbyggnad är det sätt på vilket individer och organisationer får, förbättrar och behåller den kompetens, kunskap, verktyg, utrustning och andra resurser som behövs för att utföra högkvalitativ och relevant forskning och högt genomslag. Genom att kombinera den världsledande expertis i aerosolmätteknik och bedömning av hälsoeffekter som finns på Lunds universitet med den unika insikt i infrastruktur, skrivna och oskrivna lagar, normer och kultur som finns hos våra Etiopiska parter på universiteten i Addis Abeba, Haramaya och Jimma ska vi tillsammans utveckla metoder för att genomföra mätningar och koppla dess resultat till hälsoeffekter. Målet är att skapa en gynnsam grogrund för forskningssamarbeten som kan hjälpa Etiopien och andra låginkomstländer att möta flera av hållbarhetsmålen.I AIR finns ett nyligen inlett samarbete med NASA och den satellit (MAIA – Multi-Angle Imager for Aerosols) för kartläggande av luftföroreningar globalt  som ska skjutas upp år 2022. MAIA kommer att ha 12 primära målområden varav Etiopien är ett ifall det därifrån går att producera markbaserad mätdata för att relatera de aerosolegenskaper satelliten mäter från rymden med de källor som finns i landet. Om vi i AIR tillsammans kan bygga upp kapacitet att genomföra sådana mätningar innebär det fantastiska möjligheter både för Etiopen och för Sverige att delta i detta stora projekt som kommer att generera data som kan ligga till grund för ett stort antal nationella och internationella ansökningar. Samarbetet kommer också att skapa unika möjligheter för Etiopien att mäta och övervaka luftföroreningar vilket är en förutsättning för att skapa medvetenhet om problemet, och generera verktyg att göra något åt det, bland befolkning och beslutsfattare.Med andra ord, samarbetet i AIR, som förenar forskare från olika bakgrund med ett gemensamt intresse av luftföroreningar och dess hälsoeffekter, kan fungera som den språngbräda som hittills saknas för långsiktiga forskningsprojekt i detta fält. Det kan möjliggöra för både Etiopien och Sverige att vara del av stora internationella satsningar och, inte minst, stödja lokala satsningar som kan i längden kan generera den kunskap som behövs för att kunna påverka beslutsfattare.

The result will be applications for interdisciplinary research project, and to establish joint PhD education.Our research objective is to develop a deeper understanding of the consequences of CC on human health in Bangladesh. CC poses large and increasing risks to human health. Bangladesh is exposed to a large number of hazards, which already in today’s climate create a number of risks, both as short-term extreme events and long-term changes. Research on health effects is underrepresented in the CC research, and new methods to understand the climate-health relation is needed. Vulnerabilities among men, women and children is of central interest. Data on CC and health is limited in Bangladesh. There is a need for interdisciplinary research, e.g. between public epidemiology and environmental science.This project will address research questions about which climate risk factors that influence human health and how differences in spatio-temporal patterns for health consequences and climate risk factors can be analysed to deepen our understanding. Four workshops will take place in spring and autumn 2020 and 2021, in Bangladesh and Sweden respectively. Projektets syfteSyftet med denna ansökan är att skapa ett starkt nätverk för forskningssamarbete mellan tre institutioner i Bangladesh och Sverige. Forskningen ska handla om hur ett förändrat klimat påverkar människors hälsa. Samarbetet ska resultera i ansökningar om finansiering av tvärvetenskapliga forskningsprojekt. Ett annat specifikt mål är att skapa möjligheter för gemensam doktorandutbildning för att stärka forskningskapaciteten i Bangladesh och Sverige.ForskningsområdeKlimatförändringar skapar stora och ökande risker för människors hälsa. Ett förändrat klimat kan ses både som förekomsten av kortvariga extrema väderhändelser och gradvisa långsiktiga förändringar. Katastrofala situationer av extremväder orsakar fysiska skador och dödsfall på grund av t.ex. vind och vattenflöden som förstör och översvämmar bostäder, infrastruktur etc. Mer gradvisa förändringar av luft- och vattentemperatur, nederbörd, luftfuktighet och havsnivåer kommer att orsaka förändrade förutsättningar för människors försörjning, vattenresurser, jordbruk, fiske etc. En tredje typ av effekt beror på större och långsiktiga klimatkonsekvenser på ekonomi och utveckling. Man kan konstatera att frågorna om klimat och hälsa kopplar till flera av FN:s globala hållbarhetsmål, t ex målen om klimatåtgärder, hälsa, vatten och sanitet.Globala klimatförändringar påverkar de fattigaste länderna på ett orimligt sätt. Världshälsoorganisationen WHO har konstaterat att Sydostasien är särskilt på grund av den höga befolkningstätheten (26% av världens befolkning) och antalet fattiga (30% av världens fattiga). WHO uppskattar att klimatförändringar direkt eller indirekt orsakar 150 000 dödsfall varje år i denna region, främst beroende på svält och undernäring, översvämningar, diarrésjukdomar och malaria.Samtidigt som hälsoeffekter som beror på klimatförändringar i allt högre grad tas upp på global nivå, är forskning om hälsoeffekter underrepresenterad i klimatforskningen. Dessutom används endast en mindre del av de globala utgifterna för klimatanpassning till hälsorelaterade åtgärder. För att studera orsakssamband mellan klimat och hälsa måste det finnas data om hälsoeffekter som samlas in i samma geografiska skala och med liknande tidsupplösning som tillgängliga data över klimatet. Särskilt viktigt att studera är sårbarheter hos olika grupper såsom barn/kvinnor/män. Det behövs både nya typer av data liksom ny metoder för att analysera data för att bättre förstå sambandet mellan klimatförändringar och människors hälsa.Bangladesh är utsatt för ett stort antal klimathot; översvämningar, torka, skyfall, värmeböljor och cykloner är vanliga och har orsakat ett stort antal dödsfall tillbaka i tiden. En orsak till att Bangladesh drabbas av de tropiska cykloner och olika typer av översvämningar är landets låglänta topografi. Om havsnivån stiger en meter kommer ca 15 procent av landet översvämmas, vilket leder till 25 miljoner klimatflyktingar.Antalet dödsfall vid extrema väderhändelser har framgångsrikt minskat sedan 70-talet, delvis för att man byggt cyklon- och översvämningsskydd, men också på grund av förbättrad hälsovård och kapacitet att ta emot internationell hjälp. Exponeringen och sårbarheten som leder till mer indirekta och långsiktiga hälsoeffekter från ett förändrat klimat är emellertid mindre undersökta. Data om klimatförändringar och hälsa är begränsade.ProjektenDenna ansökan handlar om att bygga upp ett forskningssamarbete mellan ämnet miljövetenskap vid Khulna University, forskningscentret Centre for Injury Prevention and Research Bangladesh och ämnet risk- och miljöstudier vid Karlstads universitet. Samarbetet kommer att resultera i minst två ansökningar för att finansiera tvärvetenskapliga forskningsprojekt mellan parterna, och att skapa möjligheter för att 2-3 personer i Bangladesh ska kunna erbjudas forskarutbildning. Fyra workshopar kommer att genomföras under en tvåårsperiod för att etablera och utveckla samarbetet. Workshoparna som kommer att innehålla presentation och diskussioner, inlägg från inbjudna forskare och studieresor, kommer att växelvis hållas i Bangladesh och Sverige.De kommande forskningsprojekten kommer att inrikta sig på vilka klimatriskfaktorer som särskilt påverkar människors hälsa. Två distrikt i Bangladesh kommer att studeras; ett som ligger centralt i en översvämningsdrabbad region och en i söder som är särskilt drabbat av saltinträngning från havet.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-05028-1 Sweden The purpose of the proposal is to establish a partnership for research around climate change (CC) effects on human health, built by three institutions: Environmental Science Discipline, Khulna University, Centre for Injury Prevention and Research Bangladesh (CIPRB), and Risk and Environmental Science, Karlstad University. The result will be applications for interdisciplinary research project, and to establish joint PhD education.Our research objective is to develop a deeper understanding of the consequences of CC on human health in Bangladesh. CC poses large and increasing risks to human health. Bangladesh is exposed to a large number of hazards, which already in today’s climate create a number of risks, both as short-term extreme events and long-term changes. Research on health effects is underrepresented in the CC research, and new methods to understand the climate-health relation is needed. Vulnerabilities among men, women and children is of central interest. Data on CC and health is limited in Bangladesh. There is a need for interdisciplinary research, e.g. between public epidemiology and environmental science.This project will address research questions about which climate risk factors that influence human health and how differences in spatio-temporal patterns for health consequences and climate risk factors can be analysed to deepen our understanding. Four workshops will take place in spring and autumn 2020 and 2021, in Bangladesh and Sweden respectively. Projektets syfteSyftet med denna ansökan är att skapa ett starkt nätverk för forskningssamarbete mellan tre institutioner i Bangladesh och Sverige. Forskningen ska handla om hur ett förändrat klimat påverkar människors hälsa. Samarbetet ska resultera i ansökningar om finansiering av tvärvetenskapliga forskningsprojekt. Ett annat specifikt mål är att skapa möjligheter för gemensam doktorandutbildning för att stärka forskningskapaciteten i Bangladesh och Sverige.ForskningsområdeKlimatförändringar skapar stora och ökande risker för människors hälsa. Ett förändrat klimat kan ses både som förekomsten av kortvariga extrema väderhändelser och gradvisa långsiktiga förändringar. Katastrofala situationer av extremväder orsakar fysiska skador och dödsfall på grund av t.ex. vind och vattenflöden som förstör och översvämmar bostäder, infrastruktur etc. Mer gradvisa förändringar av luft- och vattentemperatur, nederbörd, luftfuktighet och havsnivåer kommer att orsaka förändrade förutsättningar för människors försörjning, vattenresurser, jordbruk, fiske etc. En tredje typ av effekt beror på större och långsiktiga klimatkonsekvenser på ekonomi och utveckling. Man kan konstatera att frågorna om klimat och hälsa kopplar till flera av FN:s globala hållbarhetsmål, t ex målen om klimatåtgärder, hälsa, vatten och sanitet.Globala klimatförändringar påverkar de fattigaste länderna på ett orimligt sätt. Världshälsoorganisationen WHO har konstaterat att Sydostasien är särskilt på grund av den höga befolkningstätheten (26% av världens befolkning) och antalet fattiga (30% av världens fattiga). WHO uppskattar att klimatförändringar direkt eller indirekt orsakar 150 000 dödsfall varje år i denna region, främst beroende på svält och undernäring, översvämningar, diarrésjukdomar och malaria.Samtidigt som hälsoeffekter som beror på klimatförändringar i allt högre grad tas upp på global nivå, är forskning om hälsoeffekter underrepresenterad i klimatforskningen.

Paleo-data is also critical for the calibration of climate models, which outcomes may have direct impact on rural societies dependent on predictable rainfall for subsistence. With this proposal we aim to reconstruct Southern African hydroclimate variability, with emphasis on the nature and frequency of extreme rainfall anomalies, and associated ecosystem impacts. Geochemical tools will be applied on sedimentological sequences sampled from climate sensitive ecosystems in South Africa, Lesotho and Mozambique. More specifically, we will; 1) implement state-of-the-art compound specific isotope analysis (CSIA) and X-ray fluorescence scanning (XRF) for hydroclimate proxy reconstructions - a proxy-combination optimal for unambiguous and robust interpretative assessment, 2) focus on high-resolution data for identification of short-term extreme events and abrupt climate shifts, 3) provide tight chronological control for optimal inter-site comparison and identification of potential leads and lags within and between climate- and eco-systems, 4) run climate model simulations with a coupled earth system model. In parallel, biogenic methods will yield data on local aquatic- and regional vegetation dynamics, providing a coupling between ecosystem response and climate change. De senaste åren har flera klimatmodeller tagits fram för att förutspå framtida klimat-förändringar för olika platser på jorden. De regionala klimatmodeller som finns tillgängliga för Afrika, uppvisar ofta mycket osäkra och ibland tvetydiga resultat. Osäkerheten i modellerna för Afrika är särskilt stor när det gäller att uppskatta framtida nederbördsmönster. Detta är olyckligt eftersom en stor del avbefolkningen i södra Afrika är beroende av klimatkänsliga näringar, som t.ex. jordbruk, och därmed på sikt hade kunnat gynnas av tillförlitliga klimatmodeller om sådana fanns tillgängliga. För att förfina och förbättra dessa modeller, krävs en ökad förståelse för det gångna klimatet i södra Afrika och de processer som ligger bakom de naturliga klimatförändringar som drabbat regionen historiskt sett. Ett sätt att öka förståelsen för klimatrelaterade processer är att undersöka det gångna klimatet genom att analysera olika klimatkänsliga parametrar i naturliga arkiv. I vårt projekt kommer vi att använda oss av främst sjösediment och torv från våtmarker i Lesotho, södra Moçambique och östra Sydafrika. Genom kontakter med lokala forskare och från egna fältobservationer har vi identifierat lovande arkiv i områden där hittills ytterst få klimatologiska dataserier finns tillgängliga. Vi kommer att datera dessa arkiv med kol-14-metoden, och analysera klimatkänsliga kemiska parametrar (isotopsammansättning i biomarkörer, samt sammansättningen av olika grundämnen i det oorganiska materialet), samt vegetations- och miljökänsliga mikrofossil (pollen, diatomeer). Dessa parametrar i kombination, kan ge information om hur mängden nederbörd varierat i tid, hur vegetationstäcket förändrats, hur våtmarkernas vattenbalans har växlat, hur säsongsnederbörden varierat osv. Denna information är indirekt, och ibland till och med direkt kopplad till klimatet och vi kan på så sätt uppskatta de relativa, men ibland också kvantitativa, förändringarna i nederbörd, cirkulationsförändringar, evaporation osv., för den tidsperiod som våra klimatarkiv omfattar. Vi kan även studera hur vegetaiton och miljö påverkats av klimatförändringar, och på så sätt få en bättre förståelse för hur kämsliga dagens ekosystem är för kommande klimatförändringar kopplande till den globala uppvärmningen. Länderna i södra Afrika påverkas i hög grad av de pågående klimatförändringarna och är beroende av strategier för anpassning till de nya förhållanden som råder och kommer att råda i framtiden. Paleo-klimat-forskning är av stor betydelse i detta sammanhang, eftersom den kan leda till bättre och förfinade regionala klimatmodeller, samt en bättre förståese för kopplingen mellan klimatförändringar, miljöpåverkan och vegetationsdynamik.

Central America is a region where the number of undernourished people has increased, moving this region away from meeting the Sustainable Development Goal 2: Zero Hunger by 2030. Hence, biotechnological innovation is very much needed if resilient crops with improved productivity, quality, and nutritional value are to be achieved. The goal of this proposal is to establish the network Sweden-Central America and together develop functional crops with high nutritional value and resilient to the effects of climate change. To achieve this, the consortium is organized in four working groups which together seek to develop, evaluate, and implement the cultivation of nutritive and resilient crops. The topics of discussion and knowledge transference within this network will spin around the development of functional and resilient biofortified crop varieties using classical breeding techniques, the implementation of plant biotechnology techniques; the education and training of professionals within the area of food nutrition responsible for the evaluation of the nutritional value and bioavailability of the improved crops, and finally by consolidating the legal guidelines so the devalopment of science-based advancements in agriculture will not be prohibitive. Förra året rapporterade FN: s livsmedels- och jordbruksorganisation (FAO) att antalet undernärda människor i Latinamerika och Karibien hade ökat främst på grund av konsumtionen av mat som är fattig i näringsämnen, såsom järn, zink och vitamin A och B12, samt effekten av klimatförändringar på jordbruket. Till exempel så drabbades regionen år 2015-2016 av den värsta torkperioden på 35 år, orsakad av El Niño-fenomenet. Torkan resulterade i betydande minskningar av jordbruksproduktionen och 50-90% av skörden gick förlorad, vilket gjorde att mer än 3,6 miljoner människor behövde humanitär hjälp. Ökningen i antalet hungriga har avlägsnat denna region från det hållbara utvecklingsmålet 2: noll hunger till år 2030. Honduras och Guatemala är två centralamerikanska länder vars jordbruk är mycket utsatt för klimatförändringar, eftersom de drabbas av olika naturkatastrofer som orkaner, tropiska stormer, översvämningar, torka och jordskred som förstör grödor och kritisk infrastruktur. Därför har båda länderna höga nivåer av fattigdom och undernäring. Analys av den årliga tillväxt-takten för stora grödor visar att produktivitetsvinsterna är marginella och 40% respektive 10% av befolkningen i Guatemala och Honduras har en inkomst under US $ 1 per dag. Dessutom har det uppskattats att 58% och 49,8% av barnen drabbas av kronisk undernäring i Honduras respektive Guatemala.

Central America is a region where the number of undernourished people has increased, moving this region away from meeting the Sustainable Development Goal 2: Zero Hunger by 2030. Hence, biotechnological innovation is very much needed if resilient crops with improved productivity, quality, and nutritional value are to be achieved. The goal of this proposal is to establish the network Sweden-Central America and together develop functional crops with high nutritional value and resilient to the effects of climate change. To achieve this, the consortium is organized in four working groups which together seek to develop, evaluate, and implement the cultivation of nutritive and resilient crops. The topics of discussion and knowledge transference within this network will spin around the development of functional and resilient biofortified crop varieties using classical breeding techniques, the implementation of plant biotechnology techniques; the education and training of professionals within the area of food nutrition responsible for the evaluation of the nutritional value and bioavailability of the improved crops, and finally by consolidating the legal guidelines so the devalopment of science-based advancements in agriculture will not be prohibitive. Förra året rapporterade FN: s livsmedels- och jordbruksorganisation (FAO) att antalet undernärda människor i Latinamerika och Karibien hade ökat främst på grund av konsumtionen av mat som är fattig i näringsämnen, såsom järn, zink och vitamin A och B12, samt effekten av klimatförändringar på jordbruket. Till exempel så drabbades regionen år 2015-2016 av den värsta torkperioden på 35 år, orsakad av El Niño-fenomenet. Torkan resulterade i betydande minskningar av jordbruksproduktionen och 50-90% av skörden gick förlorad, vilket gjorde att mer än 3,6 miljoner människor behövde humanitär hjälp. Ökningen i antalet hungriga har avlägsnat denna region från det hållbara utvecklingsmålet 2: noll hunger till år 2030. Honduras och Guatemala är två centralamerikanska länder vars jordbruk är mycket utsatt för klimatförändringar, eftersom de drabbas av olika naturkatastrofer som orkaner, tropiska stormer, översvämningar, torka och jordskred som förstör grödor och kritisk infrastruktur. Därför har båda länderna höga nivåer av fattigdom och undernäring. Analys av den årliga tillväxt-takten för stora grödor visar att produktivitetsvinsterna är marginella och 40% respektive 10% av befolkningen i Guatemala och Honduras har en inkomst under US $ 1 per dag.

Kan tuggande av betelnötter under graviditeten ge bestående påverkan på barnets tillväxt och metabola risk markörer? En kohortstudie på landsbygden i Bangladesh Tuggande av betelnötter (Areca catechu) är vanligt i delar av Asien, och speciellt hos gravida kvinnor då det anses motverka graviditets illamående. Betelnötter innehåller kända cancerframkallande substanser men det finns väldigt lite kunskap om hälsoriskerna för den gravida kvinnan och på barnet hon bär. Några få studier har indikerat hälsorisker av betelnötter av samma typ som undernäring framkallar: missfall, dödfödda barn, tillväxthämning av fostret, långsammare tillväxt hos barnet och ökad risk för metabola rubbningar relativt tidigt i livet. Om betelnötter tuggas av en undernärd befolkningsgrupp så finns det starka skäl att tro att de negativa effekterna samverkar och blir större. För beslutsfattare ska kunna bedöma om det finns behov av befolkningsbaserade åtgärder för att minska konsumtionen av betelnötter så behövs mer solid kunskap om dess hälsoeffekter. Den här studien genomförs på landsbygden i Bangladesh i ett landsbygdsområde där ett hälsoövervakningssystem möjliggör komplexa uppföljningsstudier över tid. Målsättningen är att utvärdera hälsokonsekvenserna för modern och barnet av tuggande av betelnötter under graviditeten. Vi har genomfört den första delen av studien där vi följde mamman och barnet fram till 6 veckors ålder. I denna del av studien har vi sett att en del av mammans mikro-näringsämnen och inflammationsmarkörer påverkades negativt av betelnöts användandet. Vi såg också en betydligt lägre födelsevikt hos barnen. Vi ämnar nu göra en uppföljning på barnet vid tre års ålder för att se om det finns kvarstående negativa effekter i form av tillväxthämning, förändringar i kroppsammansättningen och metabola risk markörer. I den första delen av studien ingick 3466 kvinnor och barn. Baserat på tidigare erfarenheter i området förväntar vi oss att kunna följa upp minst 80% av dessa, dvs ca 2900 barn. I den tidigare delstudien registrerade vi noggrant kvinnornas användande av betelnötter och de ingredienser som förekom. Vi kommer nu att informera kvinnorna och deras familjer om denna nya delen av studien och fråga om de vill vara med när barnet är tre år. De som väljer att vara med bjuds in till ett besök på ett lokalt hälsocenter. Insamlandet av data kommer att ske med största möjliga hänsyn till individernas sekretess och bevarande av anonymitet. De familjer som väljer att inte vara med kommer att erbjudas samma typ av primärhälsovård de som är med. Vid besöket vid hälsocentret kommer barnets vikt, längd, kroppsammansättning och blodtryck mätas. Dessutom kommer ett venöst blodprov om max 5 mL tas. Detta görs av hälsovårdspersonal som är väl utbildade i att göra detta. Blodprovet kommer att separeras och djupfrysas tlll -70C för att senare analyseras. De biomarkörer som kommer att analyseras är hemoglobin, vitamin D, vitamin B12, folat, fett biomarkörer, insulin, glukos och inflammationsmarkörer. Det insamlade datamaterialet kommer att avidentifieras så att ingen kan se vilken individ informationen hör till. Kodnyckel till identitet kommer att hållas inlåst och tillgänglig endast för behörig forskningspersonal. Data materialet kommer sen att bearbetas med statistiska metoder för att utröna om det finns kvarstående effekter av betelnöts användandet under graviditeten på barnet vid tre års ålder. Resultatet av studien kommer att presenteras vid olika vetenskapliga sammanhang. Dessutom kommer relevanta beslutsfattare bli inbjudna till ett möte där resultaten presenteras och där behovet av eventuella befolkningsbaserade åtgärder kan diskuteras. Resultaten kommer också att presenteras lokalt där studien är gjord. Då forskargruppen har goda kontakter med beslutsfattare är vår förväntan att resultat som indikerar allvarliga konsekvenser för folkhälsan snabbt kan leda till påverkan på policy och implementering av befolkningsbaserade interventioner.

However, the emergence and spread of drug-resistant viral variants constitutes an imminent threat to the global roll-out of ART.This project is based on large representative cohorts from different parts of Ethiopia, the second most populous nation in Africa, and includes both HIV-positive subjects and individuals at high risk of HIV acquisition. Longitudinal follow-up and access to epidemiological and clinical data, as well as genetic information of the virus, will reveal new information on how viral, socio-demographic and behavioral factors interact in HIV transmission, with particular regard to drug-resistant variants.

However, the emergence and spread of drug-resistant viral variants constitutes an imminent threat to the global roll-out of ART.This project is based on large representative cohorts from different parts of Ethiopia, the second most populous nation in Africa, and includes both HIV-positive subjects and individuals at high risk of HIV acquisition. Longitudinal follow-up and access to epidemiological and clinical data, as well as genetic information of the virus, will reveal new information on how viral, socio-demographic and behavioral factors interact in HIV transmission, with particular regard to drug-resistant variants. This knowledge will elucidate mechanisms of drug resistance development, and will be of direct use for the modification of ART programs.

On the other hand, CO2 can be a promising feedstock for various carbon-based fuels (CH4, CH3OH, HCOOH). However, the conversion of CO2 into various hydrocarbons/alcohols is challenging as CO2 is a thermodynamically stable, non-polar and chemically inert molecule. Due to this, researchers have been mainly involved in designing catalysts for the production of C1 (CO, CH3OH, HCOOH) and short-chain based products via selective hydrogenation. However, it will be interesting to see whether CO2 can be converted back into long-chain hydrocarbons such as gasoline. For this, we have identified two reaction pathways (direct and indirect) and we predict and experimentally show that transition metal nanoalloys and 2D-Materials based catalysts can be efficient and selective for CO2 conversion into gasoline. This network with India is very important as Indian groups have demonstrated that transition metal based nanoalloys and 2D-materials based catalysts are highly active and selective for O2 and CO2 reduction reactions. They have an extensive experience in terms of designing nanoalloys and 2D-materials based efficient catalysts for various hydrogenation reactions, which makes us believe that we will be successful in terms of designing efficient and selective catalysts. The cross-linkage between Sweden and India will be built concerning the exchange of staff and students. Efterfrågan på energi ökar dag för dag på grund av den kontinuerliga tillväxten i befolkning, ekonomi- och levnadsstandardutveckling. Urbaniseringen ökar utnyttjandet av kolbaserade fossila bränslen (kol, olja och naturgas) i takt med utvecklingen av mänsklig civilisation och industrialisering. Därför strävar en betydande forskning på att ersätta den traditionella råoljan - hitta alternativen till vår nuvarande fossila bränslebaserade ekonomi. Den omfattande globala förbrukningen av fossila bränsleresurser medför en stor mängd koldioxidutsläpp som är ansvarig för den globala klimatförändringen. Emellertid fortfarande kommer den större delen av världs energiförsörjning från råolja. Den totala primära energiförsörjningen (31%) och över 90% av transportbränslena kommer från råoljorna. Dessutom kontrolleras energiförsörjningen med kolet (29%) och naturgas (21%). Samtidigt har koncentrationen av atmosfärisk koldioxid ökat med 56% sedan 1990-talet till 2014. Omvandling av CO2 till värdefulla kemikalier och bränslen är det mest fördelaktiga sättet att minska koldioxidutsläppen och en viktig parameter för att ersätta de minskade fossila bränslen. Eftersom denna konversation är baserad på elektrokemiska mekanismer och inte på förbränning, är processen miljövänlig och är effektivare än bränsleförbränning. Emellertid är koldioxid känt som termodynamiskt stabil, kemiskt inert och fullständigt oxiderad molekyl. Det är alltså en mycket utmanande uppgift att aktivera CO2 för vidare användning p.g.a. CO2-aktivering kräver hög energi. Å andra sidan är väte ren och kan fungera som en energikälla för att omvandla CO2 till livskraftiga produkter. Därför har CO2-hydrogenering blivit alltmer intressant för omvandling av CO2 till några väsentliga kolväten, såsom kolväten (C2-4), lägre olefiner, bensin (C5+) och så vidare. Enligt litteraturundersökningen har omvandling av CO2 till kolväte uppnåtts via två vägar; första direkta hydrogenering av CO2 till CO via omvänd vatten-gasskift (RWGS) reaktion och följd av CO-hydrogenering till högre kolväten genom Fischer-Tropsch-syntes (FTS), medan den andra processen är indirekt väg att syntetisera högre kolväten via syngas (blandning av CO och H2) och/eller metanol mellanprodukten till bensin. Det första tillvägagångssättet är emellertid bekvämare än den andra. Det finns dock brist på studier i den direkta CO2-till bensinbildningen. Därför syftar vår nuvarande förslag på förståelse av de grundläggande katalytiska konceptet för både RWGS- och FTS-metoder och kemin av högre kolväten (C5+) såsom bensin. På så sätt letar man efter en mycket effektiv katalysator, som kan katalysera både RWGS och FTS-metoder, vilket är ett viktigt verktyg för bensinbildning. De katalytiska egenskaperna hos ett material beror starkt på dess sammansättning och atomkonfiguration. Att hitta kompositionerna och geometriska arrangemang som maximerar katalytisk effektivitet hos ett material i en given reaktion är ett långvarigt problem inom kemi och materialvetenskap. Framsteg i materialkontroll på nanoskalan har öppnat ett nytt universum av möjligheter för katalys. Den högre flexibiliteten för att stämma egenskaperna hos nanomaterialet, på grund av möjligheten att variera deras former, storlekar, komposition, inneslutningseffekter, oxidationstillstånd, gör den till de mest lovande forskningsområden. I själva verket har nanomaterial ett mycket större yt-volymförhållande, jämfört med bulkmaterial. Vidare kan de resulterande atomarrangemangen vid deras ytor förändras betydligt med deras storlek och sammansättning. Därför kan det antalet av möjliga former, storlekar, sammansättning, confinementseffekter, oxidationstillstånd, reaktiva grupper för nanomaterial undersökas för att optimera sitt beteende i specifika katalytiska reaktioner. Vi kommer att utföra en omfattande och systematisk undersökning för att utforma de effektiva katalysatorerna, som selektivt kan bilda bensinprodukt via direkt tillvägagångssätt. Vi kommer att använda den avancerade beräkningsmetodiken baserad på första principen elektronisk strukturteori genom hela vår omfattande sökning av effektivt katalytiskt material. Således tror vi att resultaten kommer att kopplas till de olika aktiviteterna i gränssnittskemi och materialvetenskapssamhällen, inklusive den pågående återkopplingen mellan teori och experiment i hållbar- och förnybarenergiskörd perspektiv.

The international community finds this violence unconscionable and excessive, but has a  limited understanding of how migrants can be protected from harm. Part of the problem is that research has consistently focused on how states and international organizations can protect migrant victims, instead of examining the forms of protection that migrants help to establish for themselves. This project seeks to contribute to efforts to understand and enhance migrant protection by studying how Myanmar migrants relate to migrant regularization schemes spanning Myanmar, Thailand and Malaysia. Tracing migrant trajectories along four migrant corridors from the beginning of their journeys to their end, we explore why migrants sometimes seek regularization, why at other times they seek ways of protecting themselves against the state and how this seemingly ambivalent behavior shapes broader migrant protection regimes. Forging a collaboration between two research projects that have thus far looked separately at the micro- and macro dimensions of migrant protection, this project will generate new data, conceptual insights and practical knowledge to help us better understand how the everyday efforts of migrants determine the impact and effectiveness of international efforts to protect them from harm. Internationella migranter löper stor risk att uppleva och utsättas för olika typer av våld. I stort sett dagligen kan vi se mediala rapporter kring migranter som drunknar under sin färd över hav, som hålls inlåsta i burar vid gränsövergångar, som exploateras under slavlika arbetsförhållanden och som tvingas leva och bo i undermåliga läger under långa perioder. För att hitta ett mer hållbart sätt att hantera den internationella migrationen och samtidigt skydda migranter från våld och övergrepp har det internationella samfundet under en längre till försökt förhandla fram ett globalt avtal. Resultatet av dessa förhandlingar lades fram under slutet av förra året genom ”The Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration”. Som titeln på detta avtal antyder ser de stater inblandade i processen här ett samband mellan en säker och ordnad migration och reguljär (legal) status. Detta understryks ytterligare genom två av avtalets viktigaste delmål: att säkerställa att migranter har juridiska handlingar som säkerställer deras identitet och att stater upprättar vägar för att migranter ska kunna migrera på laglig väg.Idén om att reguljär/laglig migration ger migranter ett ökat skydd mot våld och övergrepp bygger dock på erfarenheter från länder i det globala nord: där legal status ger migranter skydd mot deportationer samt ett bättre socialt skyddsnät och förbättrade arbetsvillkor. Detta är också ett av skälen till att rörelser som the Dreamers i USA och Ingen Människa är Illegal i Europa drivit krav om att migranters och flyktingars status ska ”legaliseras”. Samtidigt finns det en växande skara forskare som argumenterar för att dessa processer ser helt annorlunda ut för migranter som befinner sig i det globala syd – där reguljär/legal status inte med nödvändighet ger ett ökat skydd mot våld och övergrepp utan tvärtom kan sägas främja ojämställda relationer mellan migranter och dess arbetsgivare, rekryterare och stater. Vad dessa studier visar är att migranter i det globala syd ofta väljer irreguljära/illegala sätt att migrera – även när stater erbjuder möjligheten att göra det på reguljär/laglig väg. Vad det betyder är alltså att migranter väljer att resa och arbeta i länder ”illegalt”, eftersom de upplever att detta ger mer handlingsutrymme och rörelsefrihet under migrationsprocessen.Syftet med vårt forskningsprojekt är därför att öka vår kunskap kring varför denna situation uppstår – genom att studera hur migranter söker skydda sig från våld och övergrepp under migrationsprojektet och hur dessa strategier förhåller sig till staters ökade fokus på att ”legalisera” migrationen.Geografiskt undersöker vi detta genom en studie av migration från Myanmar/Burma, ett av de viktigaste ursprungsländerna för migration i den Sydostasiatiska regionen. Myanmar är ett mycket intressant land för just den här typen av studie – eftersom landets nuvarande regering satsar på just ”legalisering” som ett sätt att skydda migranters rättigheter. Detta till trots migrerar fortfarande en mycket stor majoritet av burmeserna via irreguljära/illegala kanaler. Vår studie ställer därför frågor kring vad som motiverar migranternas val att migrera legalt/illegalt, hur dessa val påverkar migranters skydd under processen samt på vilket sätt initiativ för att ”legalisera” migrationen kan utformas utefter migranternas egna erfarenheter och önskemål.Vår studie undersöker detta med hjälp av ett antal kvalitativa metoder, såsom deltagande observationer, djupintervjuer med burmesiska migranter samt intervjuer med organisationer, myndigheter och privata aktörer inblandade i projektet. För att förstå betydelsen av detta, introducerar vi begreppet skyddsregim som ett sätt att förstå det sammantagna landskap av aktörer och policies som människor navigerar för att fatta beslut kring hur de ska migrera på ett så säkert sätt som möjligt. För en sådan analys är också migranternas egen agens också helt central.

This three-year project aims to support such communities’ agency in dealing with such pressures by developing novel approaches to co-create knowledge and facilitate communication of local sustainability challenges. By combining participatory art and scenario thinking I will generate viable future scenarios, including a range of pathways for development. Tanzania constitutes a suitable context for such action-oriented research due to its economic development towards “jobless” large-scale agriculture, extractivism, and ecotourism. This type of development in the context of population growth, land-based livelihoods, and less available land, has enhanced inequalities and created new classes of landless and underemployed rural people increasingly vulnerable to environmental and economic shocks and stress. It is therefore important to identify local socio-economic and environmental challenges and interactions, and initiate discussions about how these challenges might develop under different socio-economic assumptions and scenarios. The ultimate purpose of using art in the scenario process is to create viable development pathways based on local concerns and aspirations, and as a communication tool for presenting challenges and opportunities under different futures. Det börjar bli brådskande att förstå och hitta lokala lösningar till hållbarhetsutmaningar, och dessutom ha globala processer och effekter i åtanke. Över hela Världen finns fattiga och sårbara människor och samhällen som står inför svåra utmaningar relaterade till ett förändrat och mer oberäkneligt klimat, samt andra konsekvenser av lokala till globala sociala och miljömässiga förändringsprocesser. Forskare har ett samhällsansvar att stödja dessa människors möjlighet att hantera sådan stress och främja utveckling av en socialt och miljömässigt hållbar framtid. Därför är det viktigt att forskare integrerar lokal kunskap med förståelse om den globala kontexten, och kommunicerar detta till beslutsfattare.Det här projektet kommer att bidra med just detta genom att använda och utveckla deltagande-metoder för att skapa förståelse om, och kommunicera, lokala hållbarhetsutmaningar relaterade till resurskonflikter på grund av ökad konkurrens om mark, vatten, och naturresurser. Tanzanias landsbygd är en lämplig plats för detta projekt i och med dess ekonomiska utveckling mot ”jobblöst” storskaligt jordbruk, extraktivism (gruvindustri), och ekoturism. Denna typ av utveckling i kontexten av hög befolkningstillväxt, mark-baserade försörjningssätt, och minskad tillgång till markresurser, har ökat samhällets klyftor och skapat nya klasser av marklösa och underanställda människor på landsbygden. Dessa människor har i sin tur blivit mer sårbara inför miljömässig och ekonomiska chocker och förändringar.  Denna mark-expansiva och intensiva utveckling har dessutom välkända negativa effekter på exempelvis biologisk mångfald, tillgång till vatten av god kvalitet, och koldioxidutsläpp.Forskningsprojektet har två huvudsakliga mål: 1) att bidra till metodutveckling genom att integrera konst och scenario-tänk med deltagande-metoder, 2) att göra samhällsnytta genom att använda resultaten av denna forskningsmetod för att kommunicera framtida sociala och miljömässiga scenarios relaterade till förändringar i mark- och naturresursanvändande, såsom etablering av storskaliga jordbruk, gruvindustri, och ekoturism. Genom att kombinera konst och scenario-tänk vill jag med deltagandemetoder utveckla framtida scenarios som baseras på olika lokalt anpassade socio-ekonomiska vägar för utveckling. Jag kommer att använda mig av globala narrativ som är väletablerade och välanvända inom klimatforskning, men de globala parametrarna kommer att skalas ned till den lokala nivån för att skapa nya lokala narrativ. Även andra lokalt viktiga drivkrafter för förändring kommer att inkluderas som parametrar för att skapa de lokala narrativen.Forskningsprocessen består av två delar som inkluderar olika steg som bör utföras i kronologisk ordning:Del 1: Skala ned globala framtidsscenarios av socio-ekonomisk och miljömässig förändring till lokala kontexter i TanzaniaSteg 1: Identifiera områden där mark- och naturresurser är under högt tryck, och där det finns konflikter relaterade till markanvändning, t ex. etablering av storskaligt jordbruk, gruvindustri, och ekoturism.Steg 2: Identifiera relevanta socio-ekonomiska drivkrafter för förändring tillsammans med sårbara och marginaliserade samhällen som identifierats i steg 1.Steg 3: Använd de identifierade drivkrafterna för förändring från steg 2, för att skapa lokala narrativ baserade på globala ”shared socio-economic pathways”, etablerade inom klimatforskning.Del 2: Illustrera och kommunicera lokala framtider med förbättrade deltagande-metoder, och utveckla anpassningsstrategier.Steg 4: Använd de lokala framtidsnarrativen från steg 3 för att skapa och visualisera olika framtidsscenarios.Steg 5: Använd tavlorna från steg 4 för att kommunicera och informera beslutsfattare och andra aktörer om olika socio-ekonomiska och miljömässiga framtider, och utveckla anpassningsstrategier.Den främsta anledningen att använda konst i scenarioprocessen är för att öka lokalt ägande och mening, och som kommunikationsverktyg för att kunna presentera utmaningar och möjligheter under olika framtider.

This trend has been most profound in African countries, where state agencies have responded to heavily armed poachers by providing rangers with more sophisticated and lethal weapons as well as more rigorous military training. The consequences of applying militarized forms of conservation measures have, however, rarely been evaluated in empirical research. The overall objective of this project is to investigate how military style wildlife management affect the effectiveness and legitimacy of conservation efforts in southern Africa. It focuses on the Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA TFCA) – a collaboration that includes five countries that show great variation in terms of the extent to which their conservation policies rely on military approaches – and will conduct in-depth interviews with managers and park rangers as well as implement a large-scale survey questionnaire among local communities and resource users. This unique data, focusing on questions related to perceptions about enforcement frameworks and willingness to comply among local communities, has the potential to generate findings of both theoretical and real-world importance. The project builds on the project participants’ experience of pilot-studies in the KAZA area and a memorandum of understanding with the park authorities is already established. I södra Afrika har viltförvaltningen under de senaste årtiondena i ökande grad kommit att präglas av militarisering. I kampen mot tjuvjakt används allt oftare den nationella militären och parkvakter förses med mer sofistikerade vapen och militär utrustning och ges allt mer avancerad militär träning. Projektets syfte är att undersöka vad denna utveckling får för konsekvenser för viltförvaltningens legitimitet och effektivitet. Vi fokuserar vår empiriska undersökning på Kavango Zambezi (KAZA) i södra Afrika. Detta är ett gränsöverskridande reservat som delas av Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia och Zimbabwe där de inblandade länderna visar stor variation i termer av att ha militariserat sin viltförvaltning. Hur dessa olika system för att uppmuntra regelefterlevnad fungerar har dock inte studerats i någon större utsträckning. Med hjälp av djupintervjuer och en omfattande enkätundersökning avser vi därför att bidra till ökad kunskap kring hur olika metoder för att uppmuntra regelefterlevnad upplevs av både officiella aktörer och brukare. Vi använder oss alltså både av storskaliga enkäter och djupintervjuer för att undersöka attityder till tjuvjakt och regelefterlevnad bland brukare, vilket är en avgörande faktor i framgångsrik förvaltning av reservat. Sådana unika data ger oss stora möjligheter till både teoriutveckling och empiriska insikter av relevans för beslutsfattare och resursanvändare. Viltförvaltning är en hörnsten i såväl bevarandet av biologisk mångfald som för effektiv fattigdomsbekämpning. De stora reservat som finns i Afrika söder om Sahara sägs ofta vara särskilt viktiga i detta avseende. Men dessa skyddade områden hotas samtidigt av tjuvjakt och överutnyttjande av gemensamma resurser. Att förstå hur tjuvjakt bäst kan bekämpas samt vilka faktorer och omgivande institutionella system som bäst uppmuntrar regelefterlevnad är därför av stor vikt. Projektet har Centre for Collective Action Research (CeCAR) och statsvetenskapliga institutionen i Göteborg som sin bas men kommer i stor utsträckning dra nytta av de kontakter och den erfarenhet vi sedan tidigare har från att arbeta i Afrika söder om Sahara kring frågor om hur institutioner påverkar naturresurshantering.

This unique data, focusing on questions related to perceptions about enforcement frameworks and willingness to comply among local communities, has the potential to generate findings of both theoretical and real-world importance. The project builds on the project participants’ experience of pilot-studies in the KAZA area and a memorandum of understanding with the park authorities is already established. I södra Afrika har viltförvaltningen under de senaste årtiondena i ökande grad kommit att präglas av militarisering. I kampen mot tjuvjakt används allt oftare den nationella militären och parkvakter förses med mer sofistikerade vapen och militär utrustning och ges allt mer avancerad militär träning. Projektets syfte är att undersöka vad denna utveckling får för konsekvenser för viltförvaltningens legitimitet och effektivitet. Vi fokuserar vår empiriska undersökning på Kavango Zambezi (KAZA) i södra Afrika. Detta är ett gränsöverskridande reservat som delas av Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia och Zimbabwe där de inblandade länderna visar stor variation i termer av att ha militariserat sin viltförvaltning. Hur dessa olika system för att uppmuntra regelefterlevnad fungerar har dock inte studerats i någon större utsträckning. Med hjälp av djupintervjuer och en omfattande enkätundersökning avser vi därför att bidra till ökad kunskap kring hur olika metoder för att uppmuntra regelefterlevnad upplevs av både officiella aktörer och brukare. Vi använder oss alltså både av storskaliga enkäter och djupintervjuer för att undersöka attityder till tjuvjakt och regelefterlevnad bland brukare, vilket är en avgörande faktor i framgångsrik förvaltning av reservat. Sådana unika data ger oss stora möjligheter till både teoriutveckling och empiriska insikter av relevans för beslutsfattare och resursanvändare. Viltförvaltning är en hörnsten i såväl bevarandet av biologisk mångfald som för effektiv fattigdomsbekämpning. De stora reservat som finns i Afrika söder om Sahara sägs ofta vara särskilt viktiga i detta avseende. Men dessa skyddade områden hotas samtidigt av tjuvjakt och överutnyttjande av gemensamma resurser. Att förstå hur tjuvjakt bäst kan bekämpas samt vilka faktorer och omgivande institutionella system som bäst uppmuntrar regelefterlevnad är därför av stor vikt. Projektet har Centre for Collective Action Research (CeCAR) och statsvetenskapliga institutionen i Göteborg som sin bas men kommer i stor utsträckning dra nytta av de kontakter och den erfarenhet vi sedan tidigare har från att arbeta i Afrika söder om Sahara kring frågor om hur institutioner påverkar naturresurshantering.

In sub-Saharan Africa, future urbanization is considered to be driven by a set of negative rural pressures, rather than the attraction of urban areas. The continuing importance of agriculture characterizes urbanization, as opportunities outside agriculture are limited. Small towns take on a special role in this context: the majority of the urban population lives in cities below 300 000 inhabitants, 26% in small towns of less than 50000 inhabitants. While linkages to agriculture are likely to continue to play a major role in urban livelihoods, kinship relations provide support in the absence of formalized systems of welfare provision. Theoretically the project combines perspectives from urban systems theory with perspectives on multi-local livelihoods to situate urbanisation processes spatially and economically, with respect to the urban system, rural surroundings and local business structure, politically in terms of local governance and socially in relation to kinship and multi-local livelihoods. The methodology involves a ground-breaking combination of remote sensing data analysis and the collection of quantitative data and qualitative interviews in selected sites in Tanzania and Uganda. Ett starkt fokus har riktats mot globala städer i takt med att världen urbaniseras allt snabbare. Urbaniseringen kommer dock inte att bäras av välbeställda konsumenter i globala städer som New York, Paris och Singapore, utan av en fattig lansbygdsbefolkning i det globala syd. Tidigare historiska exempel på urbaniseringsprocesser hämtas från det Globala Nord, men där innebar urbaniseringen minskad fattigdom när landsbygdsbefolkningen lämnade jordbruket och började arbeta inom industrin. I Afrika söder om Sahara är urbanisering inte kopplat till samma processer, utan här drivs urbaniseringen inte av industrialiseringen i städerna utan i stället av negativa processer på landsbygden, t ex befolkningsökning, ökande utarmning av naturresurser och klimatförändringar. Samtidigt innebär bristen på industrialisering att den urbaniserade befolkningen kommer att vara fortsatt beroende av jordbrukte för sin försörjning. Givet detta, har små städer som har direkta kopplingar till den omgivande landsbygden en viktig roll att spela i urbaniseringsprocesser i Afrika som helhet. I brist på statliga välfärdssystem så är försörjningsmönster i Afrika ofta kopplade till sociala nätverk och familjerelationer. Dessa nätverk sträcker sig geografiskt ofta över flera städer, mellan stad och land eller mellan olika landsbygdsområden och möjliggör länkar till jordbruket, men också omsorg om familjemedlemmar.Hur inkluderande urbaniseringen (inclusive urbanization) inom små städer är blir avgörande för möjligheten att bekämpa fattigdom också till följd av kopplingarna till andra geografiska områden. Inkluderande urbanisering är urbanisering som leder till  jämlik ekonomisk tillväxt och social villkor, i förhållande till kön, klass och generation. Projektet kommer att studera urbaniseringsprocesser i små städer - städer med mindre än 50000 invånare i två länder: Tanzania och Uganda. Genom en unik metod kommer vi att använda satellitbilder och geografiska informations system för att identifiera alla små städer som har upplevt inkluderande urbanisering sedan millenieskiftet. Åtta små städer kommer att väljas ut i varje land, i dessa kommer vi att samla in kvantitativa data genom ett frågeformulär riktat till alla vuxna individer i 4000 hushåll för att förstå hur deras försörjning ser ut, hur den är kopplad till den omgivande landsbygden och hur den hänger ihop med arbetstillfällen inom städerna som sådana. Från deltagarna i den kvantitativa undersökningen kommer 30 personer i varje stad att väljas ut för att djupintervjuas. Här stratifierar vi urvalet efter kön och ålder för att kunna se hur försörjningsmöjligheter skiljer sig åt. Vi kommer att samla in detaljerade data över migrationsmönster och förklaringar till varför vissa grupper har lämnat landsbygden. Slutligen, så intervjuar vi också lokala myndigheter och företrädare för det lokala näringslivet i varje stad, för att studera vilken roll lokala beslutsfattare och näringslivsstrukturen har för jämlik ekonomisk tillväxt.Genom projektet kommer vi dels kunna kartlägga och identifiera inkluderande urbanisering genom ett index som bygger helt och hållet på satellitdata, vilket innebär att det kan tillämpas på andra data fattiga områden, i Afrika som helhet. Analysen av sociala och familjebaserade nätverk innebär att vi kan fastställa betydelsen av dessa i fattiga människors försörjning medan vi får möjlighet att förstå om dessa bidrar till mer eller mindre jämlika urbaniseringsmönster. Slutligen kommer intervjuerna med myndighetspersoner och lokala näringslivsföreträdare ge oss insikter om möjligheter respektive begränsningarna när det gäller att få till stånd inkluderande urbanisering genom politiska initiativ.

Inkluderande urbanisering är urbanisering som leder till  jämlik ekonomisk tillväxt och social villkor, i förhållande till kön, klass och generation. Projektet kommer att studera urbaniseringsprocesser i små städer - städer med mindre än 50000 invånare i två länder: Tanzania och Uganda. Genom en unik metod kommer vi att använda satellitbilder och geografiska informations system för att identifiera alla små städer som har upplevt inkluderande urbanisering sedan millenieskiftet. Åtta små städer kommer att väljas ut i varje land, i dessa kommer vi att samla in kvantitativa data genom ett frågeformulär riktat till alla vuxna individer i 4000 hushåll för att förstå hur deras försörjning ser ut, hur den är kopplad till den omgivande landsbygden och hur den hänger ihop med arbetstillfällen inom städerna som sådana. Från deltagarna i den kvantitativa undersökningen kommer 30 personer i varje stad att väljas ut för att djupintervjuas. Här stratifierar vi urvalet efter kön och ålder för att kunna se hur försörjningsmöjligheter skiljer sig åt. Vi kommer att samla in detaljerade data över migrationsmönster och förklaringar till varför vissa grupper har lämnat landsbygden. Slutligen, så intervjuar vi också lokala myndigheter och företrädare för det lokala näringslivet i varje stad, för att studera vilken roll lokala beslutsfattare och näringslivsstrukturen har för jämlik ekonomisk tillväxt.Genom projektet kommer vi dels kunna kartlägga och identifiera inkluderande urbanisering genom ett index som bygger helt och hållet på satellitdata, vilket innebär att det kan tillämpas på andra data fattiga områden, i Afrika som helhet. Analysen av sociala och familjebaserade nätverk innebär att vi kan fastställa betydelsen av dessa i fattiga människors försörjning medan vi får möjlighet att förstå om dessa bidrar till mer eller mindre jämlika urbaniseringsmönster. Slutligen kommer intervjuerna med myndighetspersoner och lokala näringslivsföreträdare ge oss insikter om möjligheter respektive begränsningarna när det gäller att få till stånd inkluderande urbanisering genom politiska initiativ.

In sub-Saharan Africa, future urbanization is considered to be driven by a set of negative rural pressures, rather than the attraction of urban areas. The continuing importance of agriculture characterizes urbanization, as opportunities outside agriculture are limited.

While linkages to agriculture are likely to continue to play a major role in urban livelihoods, kinship relations provide support in the absence of formalized systems of welfare provision. Theoretically the project combines perspectives from urban systems theory with perspectives on multi-local livelihoods to situate urbanisation processes spatially and economically, with respect to the urban system, rural surroundings and local business structure, politically in terms of local governance and socially in relation to kinship and multi-local livelihoods.

To more efficiently use limited resources and prevent conflicts between sustainability targets, forest restoration should synergize climate action, life on land, and human livelihood sustainable development goals. Promoting seed dispersal by birds and mammals may achieve this by supporting diverse forests of native tree species with greater carbon storage capacity and a more diverse value for humans. In our project, we will first develop a novel system that integrates camera traps and acoustic sensors to monitor seed dispersers in restoration areas. We will then use these optimized methods in seven humid forest restoration sites to examine how landscape configuration, species composition, and age affect seed disperser communities. Surveys will determine which tree species local human populations prefer for provisioning ecosystem services. With these data, we will finally simulate how different restoration scenarios drive seed disperser community composition and subsequently tree species diversity, carbon storage capacity and utility for humans. We will work closely with key stakeholders to develop guidelines on how to reforest to aid restoration of seed dispersers and on how to monitor this progress. Fröspridande djur kan främja hållbar utveckling i MadagaskarMadagaskar är en global hotspot för biologisk mångfald – många av de arter som lever och växer i skogarna där finns ingen annanstans i världen. Men i takt med att skogarna försvinner kommer också de arter som finns i dem att göra det. För att vända den negativa trend där en snabbt växande befolkning har brukat skogen ohållbart ska fyra miljoner hektar skog nu planteras. Risken är dock att återställandet av skog sker på bekostnad av biologisk mångfald och lokalbefolkningens försörjningsförmåga. Lösningen på detta kan vara lemurer, fladdermöss och fåglar – arter som hjälper träden att sprida sina frön. I många tropiska skogar växer nämligen frön som sprids av större däggdjurs- eller fågelarter till större träd med tätare trä som lagrar mer koldioxid. Sådana träd har också flera användningsområden för människor. Utan djur som sprider frön försvinner dessa träd från skogen, vilket minskar mängden av koldioxidlagring, antalet djur- och växtarter samt mångfalden av de skogsprodukter som kan nyttjas av människan.Med vår forskning kommer vi kunna visa i vilken grad fröspridande däggdjur och fåglar kan bidra till att bekämpa klimatförändringar, skydda biologisk mångfald och förbättra människors försörjning. Att återställa skogar som huggits ner har potential att stödja flera av de globala hållbarhetsmål som FN identifierat; särskilt att bekämpa klimatförändring, återställa och bevara biologisk mångfald och tillhandahålla ekosystemtjänster som ren luft och vatten, eller produkter som mat, medicin eller bränsle till människor för att förbättra deras försörjning.Detta är särskilt viktigt på platser som Madagaskar, där samhällen alltid har varit starkt beroende av skogar för sin försörjning, men där avskogningen varit hög och där fortsatt skogsförlust sannolikt också skulle innebära att många sällsynta och unika arter som bara finns på Madagaskar helt försvinner.Madagaskar försöker uppfylla FN:s hållbarhetsmål genom att plantera fyra miljoner hektar skog, samma yta som Schweiz men i nuläget finns en risk att återplanteringen av skog kommer i konflikt med målen för biologisk mångfald och människors försörjning. Lösningen kan ligga hos de djur som hjälper träd att sprida sina frön genom skogen.I vårt projekt utvecklar vi nya metoder för att snabbt och enkelt övervaka vilka fröspridande däggdjurs- och fågelarter som finns i en skog. Vi kommer att använda dessa metoder i befintliga restaureringsområden för att avgöra vilka förutsättningar som lockar djuren till dessa områden, och hur lång tid det kan ta innan de anländer till ett återbeskogat område.Vi kommer att använda denna information för att kunna förutsäga hur restaurerade skogar kommer att se ut i framtiden, beroende på vilka fröspridande däggdjur och fåglar som besöker dem, hur mycket koldioxid de kommer att lagra och i vilken utsträckning de kommer att främja människors försörjning. Detta kommer att visa i vilken grad fröspridande däggdjur och fåglar kan hjälpa till att bekämpa klimatförändringar, skydda biologisk mångfald och förbättra människors försörjning.Vi kommer att arbeta i samarbete med lokalbefolkningen för att utnyttja fröspridningsförmågan hos fåglar, fladdermöss och lemurer i återbeskogningsinsatser för att stödja en hållbar utveckling av Madagaskar.

Building resilience towards climate change impacts and ‘building back better’ is the sustainable way forward. Climate change impacts are very critical in vulnerable societies in Africa mainly because a climate crisis within no time translates into a humanitarian crisis through acute food shortage and lack of access to safe and clean water. Given the context, this network project aims to understand the current state of climate change adaptation policies and practices in vulnerable settings – smallholder farmers and urban marginalized poor – in Kenya and Tanzania. We will identify the reasons why the climate resilience of these vulnerable groups has not improved over the decades despite implementation of several adaptation funds and projects. This project coordinated by Nordic Africa Institute in Sweden collaborating with Kenyatta University in Kenya and University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania aims to build a research network involving researchers, policy makers, intergovernmental organizations, organized farmer group representatives and other relevant stakeholders through a series of meetings, workshops and field visits. The project will provide valuable insights in devising strategies towards uplifting the vulnerable sections of society towards a climate resilient future. Klimatet förändras och effekterna av klimatförändringarna blir allt svårare för befolkning och miljö. Även om klimatförändringarna är ett globalt fenomen, känns dess effekter annorlunda i olika delar av världen beroende på den socioekonomiska kapaciteten i dessa regioner för att absorbera klimatkrisen. Vetenskapliga fynd indikerar att den afrikanska kontinenten är en av de svårast drabbade av de negativa effekterna av klimatförändringar främst på grund av dess låga anpassningsförmåga till klimatförändringar. Under de senaste decennierna har flera internationella och nationella finansieringsbyråer, allianser och organisationer genomfört flera anpassningsprojekt för klimatförändringar i majoriteten av de afrikanska länderna. Frågan kvarstår emellertid varför är det att dessa lands anpassningsförmåga, särskilt anpassningsförmågan hos de mest utsatta grupperna i dessa länder fortfarande inte förbättras. Detta nätverksprojekt syftar därför till att förstå situationen genom en serie nätverksaktiviteter i östra afrikanska länder Kenya och Tanzania.Det föreslagna projektet är att bygga och utveckla samarbete mellan Sverige, Kenya och Tanzania. Det koordinerande institutet i Sverige är Nordiska Afrika Institutet i Uppsala, och de deltagande instituten i Kenya och Tanzania är Kenyatta University och University of Dar es Salaam. Projektledaren i samarbete med de deltagande forskarna i Kenya och Tanzania syftar till att utveckla, underlätta och implementera nätverksaktiviteter som intressentmöten, workshops och fältbesök. Syftet med dessa nätverksaktiviteter är att förstå det aktuella tillståndet för anpassning av klimatförändringarna och klimatresiliens i de mest sårbara delarna av de två länderna - småbrukare och marginaliserade stadsfattiga. Det är viktigt att förstå de grundläggande orsakerna till den oförberedda och bristen på anpassningsförmåga och bristen på klimatresiliens i dessa utsatta grupper. Är det på grund av bristen på spridning av relevant och aktuell klimatinformation, eller är det på grund av bristen på social, institutionell och ekonomisk kapacitet bland dessa utsatta avdelningar och respektive lokala administrativa organisationer?Fallstudiegrupperna som identifierats i Kenya är småbrukarna i två klimatmiljöer, en i det halvtorra östra Machakos länet, och det andra i det västra fuktiga tätbefolkade Vihiga länet. Fallstudiegrupperna i Tanzania inkluderar småbrukarna i Dodoma och den marginaliserade stadsgruppen i Dar es Salaam. Jämförelsen mellan sektioner i Kenya kan ge förståelse för tillståndet för klimatresiliens hos samma grupp - småbrukare - i olika klimatmiljöer. Medan bedömningen i Tanzania kan ge insatser för klimatresiliens ur landsbygds- och stadsperspektiv. Den inledande fasen av projektet planeras börja i Kenya och genom en serie möten, workshops och fältbesök. Detta följs sedan av liknande nätverksaktiviteter i Tanzania. Mot slutet av projektet planeras en workshop i Sverige i syfte att sammanställa alla fynd från nätverksverksamheten och skriva ett forskningsförslag som bygger på detta nätverk projektresultat och samarbete.Resultaten från detta nätverksprojekt kan ge värdefull insikt om det stora problemet som den utsatta befolkningen står inför när det gäller att uppnå hållbar klimatresiliens. Detta har hög prioritet, särskilt i Afrika, eftersom klimatkrisen automatiskt innebär matkris, akut matbrist och allvarlig hälsokris som påverkar regionens socioekonomiska underhåll. De flesta delar av Afrika är redan under stress på grund av politisk instabilitet och finanskris, och klimatkrisen har potential att driva dem längre än återhämtningen. Därför är detta projekt mycket relevant för att ge svar på hur samhället kan lyftas upp från en reaktiv klimatanpassning varje gång en klimatkris inträffar till ett mer hållbart klimatfjädrande samhället. Resultaten från detta projekt genom samarbete och lika deltagande kommer att leda till ömsesidigt kunskapsutbyte.

This project coordinated by Nordic Africa Institute in Sweden collaborating with Kenyatta University in Kenya and University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania aims to build a research network involving researchers, policy makers, intergovernmental organizations, organized farmer group representatives and other relevant stakeholders through a series of meetings, workshops and field visits. The project will provide valuable insights in devising strategies towards uplifting the vulnerable sections of society towards a climate resilient future. Klimatet förändras och effekterna av klimatförändringarna blir allt svårare för befolkning och miljö. Även om klimatförändringarna är ett globalt fenomen, känns dess effekter annorlunda i olika delar av världen beroende på den socioekonomiska kapaciteten i dessa regioner för att absorbera klimatkrisen. Vetenskapliga fynd indikerar att den afrikanska kontinenten är en av de svårast drabbade av de negativa effekterna av klimatförändringar främst på grund av dess låga anpassningsförmåga till klimatförändringar. Under de senaste decennierna har flera internationella och nationella finansieringsbyråer, allianser och organisationer genomfört flera anpassningsprojekt för klimatförändringar i majoriteten av de afrikanska länderna. Frågan kvarstår emellertid varför är det att dessa lands anpassningsförmåga, särskilt anpassningsförmågan hos de mest utsatta grupperna i dessa länder fortfarande inte förbättras. Detta nätverksprojekt syftar därför till att förstå situationen genom en serie nätverksaktiviteter i östra afrikanska länder Kenya och Tanzania.Det föreslagna projektet är att bygga och utveckla samarbete mellan Sverige, Kenya och Tanzania. Det koordinerande institutet i Sverige är Nordiska Afrika Institutet i Uppsala, och de deltagande instituten i Kenya och Tanzania är Kenyatta University och University of Dar es Salaam. Projektledaren i samarbete med de deltagande forskarna i Kenya och Tanzania syftar till att utveckla, underlätta och implementera nätverksaktiviteter som intressentmöten, workshops och fältbesök. Syftet med dessa nätverksaktiviteter är att förstå det aktuella tillståndet för anpassning av klimatförändringarna och klimatresiliens i de mest sårbara delarna av de två länderna - småbrukare och marginaliserade stadsfattiga. Det är viktigt att förstå de grundläggande orsakerna till den oförberedda och bristen på anpassningsförmåga och bristen på klimatresiliens i dessa utsatta grupper. Är det på grund av bristen på spridning av relevant och aktuell klimatinformation, eller är det på grund av bristen på social, institutionell och ekonomisk kapacitet bland dessa utsatta avdelningar och respektive lokala administrativa organisationer?Fallstudiegrupperna som identifierats i Kenya är småbrukarna i två klimatmiljöer, en i det halvtorra östra Machakos länet, och det andra i det västra fuktiga tätbefolkade Vihiga länet. Fallstudiegrupperna i Tanzania inkluderar småbrukarna i Dodoma och den marginaliserade stadsgruppen i Dar es Salaam. Jämförelsen mellan sektioner i Kenya kan ge förståelse för tillståndet för klimatresiliens hos samma grupp - småbrukare - i olika klimatmiljöer. Medan bedömningen i Tanzania kan ge insatser för klimatresiliens ur landsbygds- och stadsperspektiv. Den inledande fasen av projektet planeras börja i Kenya och genom en serie möten, workshops och fältbesök. Detta följs sedan av liknande nätverksaktiviteter i Tanzania. Mot slutet av projektet planeras en workshop i Sverige i syfte att sammanställa alla fynd från nätverksverksamheten och skriva ett forskningsförslag som bygger på detta nätverk projektresultat och samarbete.Resultaten från detta nätverksprojekt kan ge värdefull insikt om det stora problemet som den utsatta befolkningen står inför när det gäller att uppnå hållbar klimatresiliens. Detta har hög prioritet, särskilt i Afrika, eftersom klimatkrisen automatiskt innebär matkris, akut matbrist och allvarlig hälsokris som påverkar regionens socioekonomiska underhåll. De flesta delar av Afrika är redan under stress på grund av politisk instabilitet och finanskris, och klimatkrisen har potential att driva dem längre än återhämtningen. Därför är detta projekt mycket relevant för att ge svar på hur samhället kan lyftas upp från en reaktiv klimatanpassning varje gång en klimatkris inträffar till ett mer hållbart klimatfjädrande samhället. Resultaten från detta projekt genom samarbete och lika deltagande kommer att leda till ömsesidigt kunskapsutbyte.

Some insurgencies seek to replace the state and start issuing legal identity documents (e.g. ID cards or birth certificates) to the people under their control.We study this phenomenon and its wide-ranging implications by looking at three complementary cases:the Kachin Independence Organisation/Army in Myanmar (which recently started issuing ID documents);the Syrian Interim Government (which used to issue ID documents but now faces defeat);the Turkish Republic of North Cyprus (which has become an established but widely unrecognized state).We will explore what shape legal identity takes in these three contexts, what implications it has for the people affected, and how these people navigate major political shifts.Legal identity is an SDG target (16:9) and it underpins the SDGs at large.

Juridisk identitet innebär ett dokumenterat förhållande mellan en individ, lagen och staten. Juridisk identitet anses allmänt vara något som endast suveräna stater kan utfärda. Men i samband med inbördeskrig kan mer komplexa situationer uppstå. Vissa rebellrörelser som utmanar staten utvecklar system för att styra territorier och de människor de kontrollerar. Det kan handla om att utfärda juridiska identitetshandlingar (t.ex. ID-kort, pass) eller livscykeldokument (t.ex. födelsecertifikat, äktenskapshandlingar och dödsattester). Detta är nödvändigt eftersom i tider av väpnad konflikt fortsätter människor att födas, dö, gifta sig och skiljas.Juridisk identitet är relevant av många olika skäl. Mål 16:9 för hållbar utveckling syftar till att säkra "juridisk identitet för alla" fram till 2030. Men frågan om juridisk identitet är en utgångspunkt för hela SDG-agendan eftersom en person som inte har juridisk identitet kommer att få kämpa för att få tillgång till de mest grundläggande mänskliga rättigheterna. Juridisk identitet ligger därmed till grund för själva idéen om en rättighetsbaserad hållbar utveckling.Hittills har rebellrörelser och ett icke-statligt utfärdande av juridisk dokumentation inte studerats tillräckligt trots att det för med sig stora konsekvenser, både i praktiken (för de individer som bär sådana identitetshandlingar) och akademiskt (eftersom det väcker viktiga frågor om suveräna stater).Konflikter mellan stater och rebellgrupper som ger människor en juridisk identitet får ofta stora humanitära konsekvenser för de inblandade. Frånvaron av ID-handlingar kan hindra individer från att erhålla livsavgörande hjälpinsatser och innehav av ID-handlingar kan utsätta dem som är registrerade för tvångsåtgärder. Rebellrörelser kan ta ut skatter eller rekrytera soldater och människor kan hamna i statslöshet och utsatthet när framgångsrika rebellrörelser upphör att existera.Vårt projekt syftar till att studera detta fenomen genom att analysera tre fall:Kachins självständighetsorganisation/armé (KIO/A) i Myanmar;Syriska interimregeringen (SIG);Turkiska republiken Nordcypern (TRNC).I stället för att jämföra de tre fallen betraktar vi dem som kompletterande exempel på hur juridisk identitet gestaltar sig inom tre olika rebellrörelser. Det första fallet, KIO/A, är en rörelse som nyligen har börjat utfärda ID-handlingar: dessa dokument är alltså omgivna av osäkerhet. Den andra fallet, SIG, började utfärda ID-handlingar under det syriska inbördeskriget men står nu inför ett nederlag: rörelsens dokument har tappat sin makt och kan istället betraktas som bevis på samarbete med ”terrorister” av Assad-regimen. Det tredje fallet, TNRC, började utfärda ID-dokument på 1970-talet: dessa dokument har således utfärdats under lång tid på norra Cypern och går att jämföra med de dokument som utfärdas i "normala stater", men den juridiska identiteten fortsätter att undermineras av olösta konflikter och saknar ett internationell erkännande.Projektet kommer att bedriva etnografisk forskning i dessa tre kontexter för att besvara följande forskningsfrågor:I vilken utsträckning utfärdar de tre politiska enheterna olika former av juridisk identitet till de människor de försöker styra över, och vilken materiell form har den juridiska identiteten?Vilka möjligheter eller hot erbjuder en juridisk identitet dessa människor?Hur navigerar människor de förändringar som äger rum när den politiska enhetens ställning som ger ut juridisk identitet förändras på ett avgörande sätt?Vårt projekt bidrar med ny kunskap eftersom det studerar ett viktigt fenomen som ännu inte erhållit tillräcklig akademisk uppmärksamhet. Det är innovativt, eftersom det tar utgångspunkt i två akademiska discipliner: samhällsvetenskaplig forskning om rebellrörelser och vardagen för de människor som lever under deras styre, samt juridisk forskning om utmaningarna att tillämpa internationell rätt på ett sammanhang där staten (och dess lagar) är föremål för konflikter.

Nepal: Kathmandu Medical College (community medicine), Tribhuvan University & Patan Academy of Health Sciences (med. sociology). TIME PLAN & METHODS: 2021: Cross-sectional study; knowledge, attitude and practice of parents and school-children grades 6-10; Assess preparedness for digital health promotion in schools via focus group discussions and interviews. 2022-2023: Develop and pilot a serious game targeting diet and physical activity in a school setting. 2023: Health economic evaluation including measuring Health-Related Quality of Life and Cost Utility Analysis and dissemination. SIGNIFICANCE: We apply a digital tool for health promotion in schools, a new, unique approach to prevent and reduce morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease. This aligns well with Nepal’s plan to prevent and control non-communicable diseases. Our results can be applied in other low-income countries as well as in Sweden. The project contributes to UN sustainable development goals 3, 9 and 17. I låg- och medelinkomstländer är 80 % av dödsfallen livsstilsrelaterade – med hjärtsjukdom som den främsta dödsorsaken. En tvärvetenskaplig forskargrupp av nepalesiska och svenska forskare fokuserar därför på forskning kring hjärtsjukdom hos befolkningen i Nepal. Detta är ett högaktuellt forskningsområde som knyter an till pågående samhälls- och livsstilsförändringar.Nepal är en av de låg- och medelinkomstländer som just nu genomgår stora förändringar i sin samhällsstruktur till följd av en ökad industrialisering. Ett mer stillasittande liv och en kost med en större mängd socker och fett är nya riskfaktorer. Samtidigt är kunskapen hos befolkningen vad gäller livsstilssjukdomar och framförallt hjärtsjukdom begränsad. Detta är oroväckande då hjärtsjukdom tar många år att utveckla, men kan grundläggas redan i tidig ålder. Att även barn är i riskzonen gör det extra viktigt att tidigt öka den generella medvetenheten om vilka faktorer som bidrar till ett hälsosamt liv. Via skolan och föräldrarna kan då barnen få kunskap och stöd till en hälsosam livsstil, något som förhindrar ohälsa senare i livet.Projektet är ett samarbete mellan Högskolan i Skövde och de nepalesiska lärosätena Kathmandu Medical College, Tribhuvan University och Patan Academy of Health Sciences. Det baseras på ett ömsesidigt vetenskapligt intresse och kommer att bidra till ökad kunskap och utveckling, både i Nepal och Sverige. Det övergripande syftet med projektet är att bidra till att minska sjuk- och dödlighet i hjärtsjukdom och inriktningen är digitalt hälsofrämjande arbete, med fokus på skolelever. Denna forskningsplattform ligger väl i linje med Nepals nationella plan att öka samverkan med skolor för att förebygga och kontrollera icke-smittsamma sjukdomar, som t ex hjärt-kärlsjukdom.Planerna är att under de närmaste tre åren utföra en tvärsnittsstudie för att undersöka befintlig kunskap hos föräldrar och skolbarn. Vidare undersöks förutsättningarna för att genomföra en digital hälsofrämjande insats i olika skolor. Därefter kommer en första version av det digitala instrumentet utvecklas och provas i skolorna. Instrumentet kommer att vara i form av ett digitalt spel som används på en mobil enhet. Denna insats kommer sedan att utvärderas vad gäller effektivitet och ekonomi. Tanken är att arbetet ska leda fram till ett billigt och effektivt sätt att arbeta med digital hälsokommunikation.Förutom att bidra till hållbar hälsoutveckling i Nepal, kommer projektet ge svenska forskare en unik möjlighet att delta i forskning relaterade till andra hälsoutmaningar än i Sverige. Det kommer också skapa ett kulturellt och intellektuellt utbyte med de nepalesiska kollegorna. Svenska lärares/forskares kunskap kommer kunna bidra till utveckling av en forskarutbildning i Nepal. En sådan förekommer i dagsläget inte i organiserad form. Doktoranderna som arbetar inom detta projekt kommer genomgående att handledas gemensamt av både svenska och nepalesiska forskare, vilket också ökar det vetenskapliga utbytet och bidrar till omfattande lärande.Resultaten kommer kunna tillämpas i andra låg- och medelinkomstländer med stora befolkningsgrupper och begränsade resurser, liksom i Sverige där traditionella hälsofrämjande insatser inte nödvändigtvis når alla medborgare.

Product design is a fundamental aspect of human intelligence and creativity, attracting not only experts but also workers and self-employed without any formal design training. Although numerous people in developing countries design and manufacture simple products in metalworking informal microenterprises, there is very little systematic knowledge about their design process. This project aims to fill this fundamental gap in design knowledge. The overall goal of the project is to investigate design process in metalworking informal microenterprises, using a scientific method of ‘think-aloud protocol analysis’.This two-year project will be carried out by four researchers — two from Sweden, one from Tanzania and one from India. In 2021, we will collect data in metalworking informal microenterprises in Tanzania, using the technique of ‘think-aloud protocol analysis’. In 2022, we will finish qualitative data analysis, will present results in one conference and submit one journal article, and will submit a joint research application to VR/Development Projects Grant. We will distribute the results in metalworking microenterprises and other relevant stakeholders through seminars in Tanzania and India.The project will primarily provide fundamental knowledge for models and theories of design processes, and will also help to improve design practice in microenterprises. En arbetare i den informella sektorn har inget formellt avtal med arbetsgivaren, får oregelbunden lön, lever oftast hand till mun och skyddas inte av något socialt trygghetssystem. I utvecklingsländer designar och producerar ett stort antal människor som arbetar i den informella sektorns mikroföretag produkter som fönsterskydd, hinkar, metallådor, krukor, etc. Trots att de saknar formell designutbildning har de förmåga att designa produkter. Hur utformar dessa människor produkter? Vi kommer att behandla denna viktiga forskningsfråga genom en vetenskaplig metod som kallas ´tänk-högt-protokollanalys´.De produkter som omger oss, t.ex. möbler, cyklar etc. är resultat av designprocesser. Kvaliteten på den designprocessen påverkar avsevärt vårt välbefinnande och den ekonomiska tillväxten hos företag som designar och tillverkar produkter. En designprocess involverar ett antal aktiviteter såsom: (1) identifiering av konsumenternas behov och krav i försäljning, marknadsföring, distribution osv.; (2) generering och utvärdering av alternativa produktkoncept; och (3) specifikation av produktdetaljer såsom material och dimensioner.

ETT NYTT OCH UNIKT SAMARBETE Botanister och paleontologer från Naturhistoriska riksmuseet i Stockholm och från Maharanja universitetet, Madagaskar ansöker här om medel för att arbeta detta projekt, i ett helt nytt samarbete, med fossiliserade och nulevande växter på Madagaskar. Detta förenar två olika forskningsområden och miljöer kring viktiga frågor med potential att resultera inom ett nytt forskningsområde.Den senaste utvecklingen inom analys av biologiska och paleontologiska data öppnar upp för nya, spännande möjligheter för integrativa studier rörande ursprung och utveckling av enskilda arter men även av hela ekosystem. Avgörande för framgången för denna typ av integrerade studier är samarbete mellan forskare från olika discipliner för att skapa en bred tvärvetenskaplig miljö.Vi har valt Madagaskar då denna kontinentala ö representerar unika ekosystem med stora habitatgradienter och höga berg men har under ca 80-90 miljoner års tid varit en isolerad ö omgiven av hav. Graden av endemism, dvs. andelen arter som inte finns någon annan stans på jorden, är exceptionellt hög på Madagaskar. Tyvärr är även avskogningshastigheten exceptionellt hög, varför många arter är akut hotade. Kombinationen gör att Madagaskar utgör ett av världens viktigaste så kallade biodiversitets hotspot – med unik men hotad mångfald. Kunskapen om arterna, deras utbredning och habitatkrav är dessutom dåligt känd för många grupper vilket försvårar kunskapsbaserad naturvård.Två växtlinjer som överlevde massutdöendet vid slutet av krita-perioden och som idag har levande representanter på Madagaskar är Podocarpaceae och Winteraceae. Podocarpaceae är en mycket gammal barrträdsfamilj och representeras på Madagaskar av släktet Podocarpus med 4-7 endemiska arter. Winteraceae är bland de tidigt divergerande släktlinjerna för blomväxter och representeras på Madagaskar av släktet Takhtajania. Det botaniska fältarbetet kommer att fokusera på geografisk kartläggning av utbredningen samt DNA analyser av dessa växter. Botanister och paleobotanister ska arbeta tillsammans med att klarlägga ursprung och utveckling av dessa växtgrupper.Projektet kommer att bidra med nya data och insikter i mångfaldsförändringarna i vegetation från krita när dinosaurier fortfarande strömmade över denna kontinent fram till idag. Vi söker främst medel för  finansiering för gemensamt fältarbete, DNA-analyser av växter, samt workshop (se MÅL nr. 3). MÅL 1. Integrerat paleontologiskt och botaniskt fältarbete med insamling av (jurassiska och kretaceiska - 200-66 miljoner år gamla) and  växtfossiler, och nu existerande Podocarper och Winteraceae. Fältarbetena utförs i januari 2021 och 2022 och följer efter en integrerad workshop.MÅL 2. Samla data om förändringar i mångfalden i fossilflora och den nu levande släktingens geografiska spridning en genetisk variation för att lösa mönstren och orsakerna till den biologiska mångfaldsförändringen genom tid, vilket möjliggör analyser av effekterna av tidigare biotiska kriser och av dessa samhälls motståndskraft till framtida förändrade människor.MÅL 3.

It is expected that a particularly challenging confluence of high vulnerability to climate change with strong modernizing forces (policy and market driven) in agricultural landscapes in the Global South. We address these challenges with a project focusing on water with implications for livelihood conditions and biodiversity in a small-holder farmer landscape in SW Ethiopia. In this interdisciplinary project, we start with collecting empirical data on diverse livelihood conditions, land and water use, water quantities and qualities, ecosystem services and biodiversity in upstream and down-stream areas of 20 watersheds with contrasting land-use (e.g. forests and agriculture). Finally, we search for promising synergies and evaluate trade-offs among the different aspects related to livelihood conditions and biodiversity. One example could be the possibility to develop coffee agroforestry at higher altitudes when the climate gets warmer to improve incomes as well as water quality and biodiversity. Världsbilden bakom FNs hållbarhetsmål (SDG) karakteriseras av modernitet. Om man tittar historiskt på hur moderna samhällen utvecklats har dock moderniseringen skett parallellt med ett ökat tryck på biodiversitet och ekosystem med förlust av ekosystemtjänster som följd. På samma sätt som det finns tydliga motsättningar utmed vägen till modernitet (t.ex. ekonomisk tillväxt kontra ojämlikhet och miljöförstöring) finns det också tydliga sådana spänningar mellan de olika hållbarhetsmålen. Därför är en viktig utmaning för forskningen att lyfta fram lovande synergier som samtidigt fokuserar på människors välbefinnande, miljörättvisa och uthålligt brukande av ekosystem. Detta är inte minst tydligt i det Globala Syd där trycket är stort efter moderniseringen både genom marknadskrafter och policy. Förutom de snabba stegen mot ökad modernitet står vi inför nya utmaningar med globala klimatförändringar.I detta projekt lyfter vi fram olika samhälleliga mål kring vatten i tätbefolkade jordbrukslandskap. Det är ett tvärvetenskapligt projekt där vi skall studera hur småbrukare använder vatten i olika delar av landskapet, hur de ser på och påverkas av olika vattenflöden och vatten kvaliteer I vattendragen. Vi skall också mäta vattenflöden och vatten kvalitet samt studera biodiversitetsvärden associerat med vatten, både sådan biodiversitet som kan ge indikation på vattenkvalitet men också sådan som bönderna direkt använder såsom fisktillgång. Dessa aspekter av vatten relaterar tydligt till de tre hållbarhetsmålen: SDG2: Ingen hunger, SDG6: rent vatten och SDG15: biodiversitet. Vi kommer studera synergier mellan dessa mål men också möjliga målkonflikter och olika typer av avvägningar.Basen för projektet är en region in sydvästra Etiopien där vi kommer välja ut 20 olika avrinningsområden (varje område är ca 200 km2) med olika markanvändning (t.ex. olika mängd skog, åker mm men även skillnader i avstånd till marknader, befolkningstäthet mm). I varje avrinningsområde kommer vi slumpmässigt välja ut sex hushåll, tre uppströms och tre nedströms. Eftersom alla avrinningsområdena ligger i en region med likartat makroklimat, artpool av växter och djur, politisk styrning etc. kommer vi kunna få tydliga resultat kring våra frågor om synergier och avvägningar både genom att jämföra gradienter mellan avrinningsområden men också att jämföra mellan områden uppströms och nedströms i de olika avrinningsområdena.Projektet är uppdelat i fyra delar. Följande data kommer samlas in: Delprojekt 1 –vattenanvändning, kunskap om vattenkvalitet, försörjningsförhållanden, hälsa, Delprojekt 2 - vattenkvalité, vattenflöden och bevattning, Delprojekt 3: biodiversitet i vattendrag. Delprojekt 4 handlar om att analysera datat från de tre första delprojektet när det gäller synergier och avvägningar i en kontext av modernisering och klimatförändringar. Ett exempel är möjligheten för bönder att plantera kaffe på högre höjd när klimatet blir varmare. Kaffe växter alltid tillsammans med träd och en ökning av mängden kaffeodling i ett tidigare avskogat landskap kan få stora positiva effekter på biodiversitet och vattenförhållanden samtidigt som inkomster ökar när bönderna kan sälja en populär produkt. Dock kan nya s.k. tvättningsanläggningar för kaffe som anläggs för att öka graden av industrialisering orsaka utsläpp i vattendrag så att vattenkvaliteten påverkas negativt. I delprojekt 4 kommer det också att handla om att sammanfatta, kommunicera och identifiera möjligheter till generalisering och implementering på lokal och global nivå. Vi kommer att samla in ytterligare kvalitativt data från workshops med olika avnämare inom detta delprojekt för att få en djupare förståelse av systemet men också för att initiera diskussioner om policy och implementering.Parallellt med projektets gång kommer vi samarbeta med avnämare, utbilda masterstudenter, genomföra olika typer av kommunikationsinsatser för att både lära oss själva men också förmedla kunskap och resultat från projektet.

Efforts to reduce poverty, mitigate climate change and develop new sustainable methods to utilize renewable resources are greatly needed. In this project, we address the sustainable use of biomass resources, by identifying and developing microorganisms and enzymes that will be the main catalysts in valorization of abundant agroindustrial (cassava streams) and forestry (acacia bark) residues. We will explore the biodiversity in South East Asia to identify unique microorganisms and enzymes to enable the valorization. Samples will be collected from selected and isolated from ecological niches. Novel fungal species able to rapidly degrade the residues will be idnetified. We will in detail follow and characterize (using omics techniques) the degradation process to identify which enzymes are produced and active. A detailed characterization of key underexplored enzymes in biomass degradation (e.g. phenolic de-glycosylases, oxidases and LPMOs) will follow. Enzymes with unique properties (i.e. ability to act at low pH and at high temperature) will be targeted. Knowledge regarding the factors that convey acidotolerance in enzymes and microorganisms will be established. The project will accelerate capacity building among researchers in South East Asia, and transfer knowledge to benefit industries and society regarding the potential of using enzymes and filamentous fungi in valorization. Sydostasien är en av världens regioner med högst biodiversitet, vilket innebär en enorm artrikedom av växter och djur, men även mikroorganismer. Denna stora artrikedom har stor betydelse för framtidens hållbara klimat. Vårt projekt går ut på att nyttja artrikedomen i regionen och upptäcka nya sorters filamentösa svampar, för att fördjupa kunskapen kring biologisk nedbrytning av biomassa. Vi fokuserar i detta projekt på restprodukter i skogsnäringen och från storskalig bioetanolproduktion i Sydostasien. Målet är att på sikt kunna skapa värdefulla produkter ifrån dessa material som idag kasseras i enorma mängder och som en konsekvens ger föroreningsproblem. Materialen vi fokuserar på är akaciabark och rester från bioetanolindustrin där kassava (maniok). Biokemisk omvandling till produkter är en av de mest miljövänliga och hållbara metoder för förädling av biomassa och därmed värdeskapande från material som annars utgör avfall.Eftersom barken utgör det yttersta försvaret mot diverse angrepp hos ett träd, innehåller den en mängd antimikrobiella molekyler, och traditionella metoder för att t.ex. omvandla barken till bioetanol begränsas därmed. Barken bryts dock ned med tiden i naturen, vilket innebär att mikroorganismer som effektivt kan bryta ned den komplexa strukturen existerar. Bioethanolproduktionen från kassava kräver subventioneringar och de rester av kassava som erhålls skulle kunna uppgraderas till näringsrikt foder med hjälp av mikrobiell omvandlingen. Enzymer som är speciellt ägnade att bryta ner kassava kan förbättra effektiviteten i bioethanolproduktionen. Med tanke på de miljontals ton bark och kassavarester som produceras idag, skulle nya omvandlingsmetoder kunna skapa stora värden och gynna lokala industrier i regionen som på sikt kan lyfta än fler människor ur fattigdom. Workshops och nätverkande med lokala industrirepresentanter är en del av projektet, vilket kommer att leda till ökad kunskapen kring bioraffinaderikonceptet i regionen.Vi kommer i detta projekt att använda både bark och industriella kassavarester för att finna och isolera nya svampar som effektivt kan växa på de olika materialen och enzymatisk omvandla dom. Vi kommer att fokusera på mikroorganismer som kan verka vid väldigt låga pH och höga temperaturer. Genom att kartlägga hur dessa fungerar, förbättras möjligheten till att designa enzymer och mikroorganismer som kan verka vid dessa förhållanden i industriella processer. Genomen hos nya arter och stammar kommer att sekvenseras, för att lägga en grund till att förstå deras enzymatiska maskinerier som möjliggör nedbrytningen. Vi kommer även att studera genreglering över tid för att få reda på vilka gener som är viktigast under de olika stegen under nedbrytningsprocessen. Härmed ökar vi ökar vi kunskapen kring dessa naturliga processer. Eftersom det rör sig om material som idag ses som värdelösa och som produceras i enorma mängder årligen, kan projektet starkt bidra till framtida metoder som både ger nya produkter i regionen, samt minskar beroendet av fossila råvaror då biomassa bättre tas tillvara. Våra resultat kan därmed starkt bidra till minskandet av koldioxidutsläpp och andra negativa effekter som nyttjande av fossila råvaror skapar. Minskade avfallsmängder leder till minskad nedskräpninh.Projektet bygger vidare på ett framgångsrikt pågående samarbete mellan Chalmers  och Food Industries Research Institute (FIRI) i Hanoi, Vietnam. Vi har de senaste åren undersökt en mängd olika svamparter med förmåga att bryta ned växtbiomassa. Vi kommer nu att involvera forskare från grannländerna Laos och Kambodja. Båda dessa är låginkomstländer och skulle gagnas av närmare forskarkontakter med det mer utvecklade Vietnam och mer högteknologisk forskning från Sverige. Vi kommer i projektet anordna workshops och konferenser med forskare i regionen för att sprida både resultat och metoder, och ämnar därmed hjälpa till att bygga upp ett lokalt nätverk där lokala forskningsfrågor framgångsrikt kan diskuteras.

Biokemisk omvandling till produkter är en av de mest miljövänliga och hållbara metoder för förädling av biomassa och därmed värdeskapande från material som annars utgör avfall.Eftersom barken utgör det yttersta försvaret mot diverse angrepp hos ett träd, innehåller den en mängd antimikrobiella molekyler, och traditionella metoder för att t.ex. omvandla barken till bioetanol begränsas därmed. Barken bryts dock ned med tiden i naturen, vilket innebär att mikroorganismer som effektivt kan bryta ned den komplexa strukturen existerar. Bioethanolproduktionen från kassava kräver subventioneringar och de rester av kassava som erhålls skulle kunna uppgraderas till näringsrikt foder med hjälp av mikrobiell omvandlingen. Enzymer som är speciellt ägnade att bryta ner kassava kan förbättra effektiviteten i bioethanolproduktionen. Med tanke på de miljontals ton bark och kassavarester som produceras idag, skulle nya omvandlingsmetoder kunna skapa stora värden och gynna lokala industrier i regionen som på sikt kan lyfta än fler människor ur fattigdom. Workshops och nätverkande med lokala industrirepresentanter är en del av projektet, vilket kommer att leda till ökad kunskapen kring bioraffinaderikonceptet i regionen.Vi kommer i detta projekt att använda både bark och industriella kassavarester för att finna och isolera nya svampar som effektivt kan växa på de olika materialen och enzymatisk omvandla dom. Vi kommer att fokusera på mikroorganismer som kan verka vid väldigt låga pH och höga temperaturer. Genom att kartlägga hur dessa fungerar, förbättras möjligheten till att designa enzymer och mikroorganismer som kan verka vid dessa förhållanden i industriella processer. Genomen hos nya arter och stammar kommer att sekvenseras, för att lägga en grund till att förstå deras enzymatiska maskinerier som möjliggör nedbrytningen. Vi kommer även att studera genreglering över tid för att få reda på vilka gener som är viktigast under de olika stegen under nedbrytningsprocessen. Härmed ökar vi ökar vi kunskapen kring dessa naturliga processer. Eftersom det rör sig om material som idag ses som värdelösa och som produceras i enorma mängder årligen, kan projektet starkt bidra till framtida metoder som både ger nya produkter i regionen, samt minskar beroendet av fossila råvaror då biomassa bättre tas tillvara. Våra resultat kan därmed starkt bidra till minskandet av koldioxidutsläpp och andra negativa effekter som nyttjande av fossila råvaror skapar.

Efforts to reduce poverty, mitigate climate change and develop new sustainable methods to utilize renewable resources are greatly needed. In this project, we address the sustainable use of biomass resources, by identifying and developing microorganisms and enzymes that will be the main catalysts in valorization of abundant agroindustrial (cassava streams) and forestry (acacia bark) residues. We will explore the biodiversity in South East Asia to identify unique microorganisms and enzymes to enable the valorization. Samples will be collected from selected and isolated from ecological niches. Novel fungal species able to rapidly degrade the residues will be idnetified. We will in detail follow and characterize (using omics techniques) the degradation process to identify which enzymes are produced and active. A detailed characterization of key underexplored enzymes in biomass degradation (e.g. phenolic de-glycosylases, oxidases and LPMOs) will follow. Enzymes with unique properties (i.e. ability to act at low pH and at high temperature) will be targeted. Knowledge regarding the factors that convey acidotolerance in enzymes and microorganisms will be established. The project will accelerate capacity building among researchers in South East Asia, and transfer knowledge to benefit industries and society regarding the potential of using enzymes and filamentous fungi in valorization.

The purpose of this study is to better understand the impact of sex and gender on injury profiles, clinical characteristics, access to and acceptability of rehabilitation services in order to promote gender sensitive approaches to rehabilitation so that health outcomes are optimised for people with amputation in conflict affected environments. The aims are to: (i) investigate sex differences in demographic factors, injury profiles and clinical characteristics among people with amputation; (ii) understand the perspectives of people with amputation about access, acceptability and perceptions of rehabilitation; (iii) understand the perspectives of health workers and local leaders on how gender aspects impact access to services, service delivery and health outcomes. A retrospective data analysis will be undertaken of existing patient databases of International Committee of the Red Cross supported rehabilitation centres.  Semi-structured interviews will be conducted with people with amputation, health workers and local leaders in Ethiopia and Cambodia. Exploration of the gender dimension in rehabilitation in conflict settings is crucial as gender discrimination renders women particularly vulnerable to exclusion from services, reducing their rehabilitation potential with significant negative impact. BakgrundKönsskillnader vid rehabilitering under pågående väpnad konflikt är föga studerat. Data från Internationella rödakorskommitténs (ICRC) rehabiliteringscenter antyder att kvinnor har sämre resultat än män vid rehabilitering efter olika typer av skador och tillstånd.

The coal-fired thermal power plants (TPP) emit particulate matter (PM), NOx, SO2 and toxic compounds with no transboundary restrictions. Chronic exposure to PM cause respiratory complications and enhance bacterial and viral infections. This poses major health risks and socioeconomic challenges to millions of people. Currently, there is a lack of reliable emissions data, difficulties exist in tracing different PM sources and distribution, and a dearth of clinical surveys from PM exposure. This delays execution of policies suited for renewable energy and community health care. The study is based near the Bangladesh-India border, where mega TPPs are one of the major sources of atmospheric PM. Our goals are 1) PM source apportionment and its impacts based on diagnostic marker compounds and receptor modeling, 2) leading epidemiological surveys, health questionnaires and low-cost biomonitoring in target groups to improve the detection and treatment of common respiratory diseases, and 3) exploring the health-related cost burden and associated socio-economic challenges to the community. Establishing the causality between TPP emissions, health risks, and cost-benefit analyses will advance the agenda for cleaner energy, better air quality, and development associated with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (No 3 and 7) towards healthy lives and sustainable energy access. De globala luftkvalitetsindexen påvisar rutinmässigt extrema luftföroreningsnivåer i Bangladesh och Indien. Energibehovet i dessa länder har ökat kraftigt och kol används eftersom det är billigt och allmänt tillgängligt. Förbränning av kol genererar stora mängder partiklar (PM10 och PM2.5), NOx, SO2 och cancerframkallande föreningar som bly, kvicksilver, och dioxiner. PM från kolförbränning följer inga nationella gränser utan transporteras som en del av det atmosfäriska cirkulationsmönstret som täcker ett stort område. Kronisk exponering och inandning av PM orsakar allvarliga andnings- och kardiovaskulära sjukdomar och ökad risk för övriga bakteriella- och virusinfektioner. Trots dessa skadliga effekter fortsätter användningen av kol i Bangladesh och Indien.Utsläpp från de kolkraftverk (TPP) som används för att generera kraft har lett till ett energi-hälso-dilemma med olika konsekvenser. Den dåliga luftkvaliteten är en av de främsta orsakerna till andningsproblem hos människor som bor runt TPP. Dessutom är de angivna hälsoriskerna baserade på epidemiologiska och kliniska studier utförs med relativa små gruper av människor eller djurmodeller och är därför osäkera. Hittills har det inte genomförts någon systematisk och integrerad bedömning av luftföroreningar och risker i den extremt förorenade och tätbefolkade Bangladesh-Indien-regionen med fokus på TPP-utsläpp med kopplingar tillhälsa och socioekonomiska effekter. I detta projekt ska vi spåra de dominerande PM källorna och testa om ett orsak-verkan-samband mellan TPP-utsläpp, PM-exponering och hälsorisker kan fastställas som en del av ett utvecklingsprojekt. Dessutom kommer en kostnads-nyttoanalys ska ge en omfattande bedömning av TPP-effekter i båda länderna. Detta kommer väsentligt att förbättra den vetenskapliga kunskapen om luftföroreningar och hur de påverkar människor. Detta projekt kommer att fungera som ett modellprojekt för att ge vetenskaplig kunskaper som bidrar till politik för att stärka folkhälsan och åstadkomma tillgång till ren energi.Vi kommer att fokusera på två mega TPP - Farakka och Kahalgaon - cirka 20 och 150 km väster om gränsen mellan Indien och Bangladesh, som bidrar väsentligt till transnationell PM-transport och exponering. De specifika syftena är: omfattande övervakning av den geografiska fördelningen av PM och atmosfärisk spridning av PM via analyser av utvalda kemiska spårämnen som bäst representerar TPP-utsläpp, och undersöka effekten av TPP på luftkvalitet och förorening. . Vi kommer att genomföra kostnadseffektiv hälsokontroller och upfölning med epidemiologiska undersökningar (inklusive hälsofrågeformulär, kliniska tester etc.) i målpopulationen för att kartlägga effekter på andningsfunktioner och testa om det finns geografiska orsakssamband med TPP-utsläpp och PM-exponering. Ett samhällsbaserat centrum som lanseras av oss kommer att vara vår kontaktpunkt för att underlätta kommunikation. Detta kommer att drivas av den vetenskapliga personalen och de personer som är associerade med projektet för att leda diskussioner i lokalsamhällena. Kunskapsutbyte och samarbetsinitiativ för att bygga förtroende, skapa medvetenhet och diskutera vetenskapliga och ekonomiskt alternativ är centrala i projektet. Detta 3-åriga projekt leds av ett team av tvärvetenskapliga experter från Bangladesh, Indien och Sverige. Att verifiera orsakssamband mellan TPP-utsläpp, hälsorisker och tillhörande socioekonomiska kostnader är centralt för prioriteringar i arbetet för renare energi och utveckling i samband med FN: s hållbara utvecklingsmål (nr 3 och 7) för att säkerställa en god folkhälsa och hållbara energisystem. Slutligen kommer detta projekt att stärka internationella forsknings- och samarbetsinsatser från Linköpings universitet i utvecklingsländer.

Detta projekt kommer att fungera som ett modellprojekt för att ge vetenskaplig kunskaper som bidrar till politik för att stärka folkhälsan och åstadkomma tillgång till ren energi.Vi kommer att fokusera på två mega TPP - Farakka och Kahalgaon - cirka 20 och 150 km väster om gränsen mellan Indien och Bangladesh, som bidrar väsentligt till transnationell PM-transport och exponering. De specifika syftena är: omfattande övervakning av den geografiska fördelningen av PM och atmosfärisk spridning av PM via analyser av utvalda kemiska spårämnen som bäst representerar TPP-utsläpp, och undersöka effekten av TPP på luftkvalitet och förorening. . Vi kommer att genomföra kostnadseffektiv hälsokontroller och upfölning med epidemiologiska undersökningar (inklusive hälsofrågeformulär, kliniska tester etc.) i målpopulationen för att kartlägga effekter på andningsfunktioner och testa om det finns geografiska orsakssamband med TPP-utsläpp och PM-exponering. Ett samhällsbaserat centrum som lanseras av oss kommer att vara vår kontaktpunkt för att underlätta kommunikation. Detta kommer att drivas av den vetenskapliga personalen och de personer som är associerade med projektet för att leda diskussioner i lokalsamhällena. Kunskapsutbyte och samarbetsinitiativ för att bygga förtroende, skapa medvetenhet och diskutera vetenskapliga och ekonomiskt alternativ är centrala i projektet. Detta 3-åriga projekt leds av ett team av tvärvetenskapliga experter från Bangladesh, Indien och Sverige. Att verifiera orsakssamband mellan TPP-utsläpp, hälsorisker och tillhörande socioekonomiska kostnader är centralt för prioriteringar i arbetet för renare energi och utveckling i samband med FN: s hållbara utvecklingsmål (nr 3 och 7) för att säkerställa en god folkhälsa och hållbara energisystem. Slutligen kommer detta projekt att stärka internationella forsknings- och samarbetsinsatser från Linköpings universitet i utvecklingsländer.

Over the last decades, low and middle-income countries that have achieved the most significant gains in health status have invested heavily in the base of their health system – through primary health care and community-based strategies.The purpose of the proposed network is to enhance research capacity and competence for designing and conducting “embedded” HPSR in order to build inclusive, socially accountable and resilient CHS. The network shall have two overarching aims: 1) to create space for on-going conceptual development on community health systems from a multidisciplinary perspective 2) to build a base for future research collaborations along wider and bigger project and grant ideas.

Denna ansökan ligger inom området hälso- politik och systemforskning (health policy and systems research-HPSR), med ett särskilt fokus på samhällsbaserade hälsosystem (Community Health Systems-CHS). Att stärka CHS är avgörande för att säkerställa jämlikhet och allmän tillgång till hälso- och sjukvård. Innovationer inom CHS har potential att förbättra tillgången till hälso- och sjukvård genom att ta itu med underliggande problem - som fragmentering, brist på integration av innovationer i lokala hälsosystem och samhällen samt svagt lokalt engagemang. Under de senaste decennierna har man sett att de låg- och medelinkomstländer (LMIC) som varit mest framgångsrika i att förbättra folkhälsan har investerat mycket i primärvård och samhällsbaserade strategier. Vikten av att byhälsoarbetare, hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal samt andra aktörer arbetar tillsammans är tydlig i områden som mödrar-barnhälsa, malaria och HIV / AIDS-program. COVID-19 pandemin har också visat på CHS viktiga roll i att informera, nå och hjälpa sårbara individer samt underlätta surveillance.Starka forskningsnätverk är viktiga för att utveckla och genomföra forskningsprojekt mellan institutioner globalt. Sådana nätverk ökar också antalet forskare som kan utföra forskning av hög kvalitet av global hälsorelevans. Detta tjänar till att förbättra befolkningarnas hälsa och stärka forskningsinstitutionernas möjligheter att delta i beslutsfattande.Sedan 2017 har forskare från Umeå universitet och University of the Western Cape, Sydafrika träffats regelbundet för att bygga upp forskningskapacitet och samarbeten inom CHS området. Detta tre-åriga initiativ har finansierats av National Research Foundation i Sydafrika och Stiftelsen för internationalisering av högre utbildning och forskning (STINT). Under samma period har ett ResearchLink projekt finansierat av Vetenskapsrådet (VR) som inkluderar Umeå universitet och University of Zambia fokuserat på att utveckla kapacitet i rigorös realistisk utvärdering och deltagande metoder för att analysera integrationsprocessen av ungdomsvänliga strategier ämnade att stödja sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter inom CHS.

Vi planerar att ha en blandning av aktiviteter som samlar dessa kärngrupper i internationella mötet och aktiviteter inom varje land. Tre internationella möten/ workshops där nätverkspartner samlas kommer att hållas. Lokaliseringen av dessa kommer att cirkulera mellan Tanzania, Uganda och Zambia för att öka lärandet om samhällsbaserade hälsosystem i olika kontexter.

The network will improve knowledge-sharing and best research practice among researchers in low-income West African researchers working on cocoa sustainability. Low yields of cocoa are limiting opportunities to improve livelihoods among smallholder farmers in West Africa, with biodiversity loss causing particular problems by resulting in pest outbreaks, diseases being spread through plantations, and pollination limitation. This is further exacerbated by soil degradation, and a lack of knowledge about how these different factors interact. Addressing these different factors requires a coordinated research effort. We aim to link researchers from diverse institutions to share knowledge, techniques and data, and to bring together research expertise from areas that cut across the themes. It will also provide a vehicle for maximising research quality, as this can be harder to achieve with isolated research programmes. Over the coming two years, this network will provide an open forum for brainstorming ideas and is particularly innovative by including cocoa farmers as partners, stakeholders and drivers of research priorities alongside researchers. It is expected to lead to collaborative applications for research, development and capacity building funding from diverse sources. Kakao är en viktig gröda globalt för framställningen av choklad. Kakao som råvara handlas också på den globala råvarumarknaden. Kakao är ett träd som växter och odlas i tropiska områden i Afrika, Asien, Nord- och Sydamerika. Trädet producerar frukter som innehåller de frön, kakaobönor, som skördas. Kakaos betydelse som gröda ökar idag pga den globala ökningen av disponibla inkomster. Däremot är en låg avkastning i vissa delar av världen ett stort problem och majoriteten av kakao odlas på små familjegårdar (I detta projekt vill vi bygga ett nätverk med fokus på växtafrikansk kakaoforskning och innovation för att arbeta mot lösningar för att komma till rätta med den låga avkastningen hos kakao bland små familjejordbruk i Västafrika. Nätverket har som mål att samla in en bred kunskapsbas och de lämpligaste forskningsmetoderna från forskare och odlare i Västafrika som arbetar med hållbar kakaoproduktion, med starkt fokus på Togo och Sierra Leone. Den viktigaste forskningsfrågan rör hur konkreta odlingsåtgärder kan göra skillnad för de små familjejordbruken genom att både gynna pollinatörer och kontrollera sjukdomar. Vi avser att länka forskare från olika universitet för att dela kunskap, tekniker och data, och för att sammanföra forskningsexpertis från olika forskningsfält. Nätverket kommer främst att tillhandahålla ett öppet forum för att identifiera kunskapsluckor och utveckla idéer för framtida forskningsansökningar och kapacitetsbyggande. Förutom forskare så kommer nätverket bestå av kakaoodlare, som kommer att engageras som framtida partners i forskningsprojekt och som viktiga bollplank för att kunna göra rätt forskningsprioriteringar. De planerade aktiviteterna under den kommande tvåårs-perioden är i) en internationell workshop med forskare i Sierra Leone/Togo, vilket också länkas samman med ett möte med upp till 50 lokala kakaoodlare, ii) ett uppföljningsmöte på SLU i Sverige, samt iii) pilotförsök med syftet att samla in data som kan ge underlag till framtida forskningsansökningar.

In Kampala, over 51% of plastic waste is left uncollected, causing a huge environmental challenge. In a related concern, Uganda being an agricultural country generates 19 million tonnes of agricultural residues from agricultural processing annually. Rice husks are one residue that find little/no application due to their composition, yet are produced rapidly. Their disposal is mainly open burning, incineration or landfilling which have negative environmental impacts. The proposed study seeks to develop bioplastics from rice husks and optimize parameters necessary to sustainably produce packaging products. The fact that bioplastics will be purely manufactured from rice husks implies that as long as commercial agriculture continues to be boosted in the Uganda, there will always be sustainable sources of materials for producing bioplastics. Characteristics of the rice husks from different locations will be determined in this study. Bioplastics will be developed through different raw material processing and modification routes. Response surface methodology will be used to optimize input parameters including husk variety, particle size, moisture content, compaction pressure, residence time and specific pre-treatment. Mechanical and thermal properties of the developed plastics will be determined using standard methods. Produktionen av plast fortsätter att öka i hela världen, vilket har lett till stora miljö- och avfallsproblem. Användningen av plast har många samhälleliga och miljömässigt positiva effekter, men på grund av den ökande mängden plastavfall på land och i marin miljö finns det växande krav på att minska användningen av engångsplaster, särskilt förpackningsprodukter. Produktion av polymerer har idag ökat kraftigt från 260 miljoner ton per år under år 2007 till cirka 375 miljoner per år.  Volymplaster som till stor del används till förpackningar utgör hela 80 % av polymermarknaden. Enbart i Uganda är den dagliga plastförbrukningen cirka 600 ton. De flesta plasterna som används är icke-förnyelsebara och även icke-nedbrytbara fossilbaserade material. Detta innebär att dagens plastanvändning inte bygger på ett hållbart nyttjande av resurser.Avfallet från icke-nedbrytbara plastmaterial är ett allvarligt och stort miljöproblem. Det har särskilt utvisats i utvecklingsländer där huvuddelen av plastavfall bränns i öppna fält, förbränns eller deponeras i deponier, vilka är metoder som leder till negativa miljöeffekter. Behovet av giftfria och miljövänliga plastmaterial har ökat, samtidigt som särskilda plastmaterial som har ett specifikt användningsområde efterfrågas på marknaden. Ett särskilt effektivt sätt att tillverka miljövänliga plastmaterial som biobaserade plaster är genom modifiering av biopolymerer som redan finns i växter. Speciellt viktigt och intressant skulle produktionen av bioplaster vara genom utnyttjandet av bioavfall från lokal produktion t.ex. olika biprodukter från jordbruket.Denna studie fokuserar på att använda förnyelsebart risskal som är ett attraktivt och rikligt potentiellt råmaterial för produktion av bioplast från lignocellulosa. Eftersom risskal är en jordbruksrest blir råmaterialet speciellt viktigt för produktion av värdeadderade bioplaster. I studien kommer processer utvecklas och egenskaperna hos bioplast tillverkad av komponenterna från risskal från jordbruken i Uganda att undersökas. I dag genereras 19 miljoner ton.

We intend to focus on the following research questions: 1. Is it feasible to conduct a cluster randomised controlled trial comparing ATLS and PTC with standard care? 2. What outcomes are perceived as most important and relevant by trauma patients and community members? 3. What is the potential effect of ATLS and PTC compared to standard care on patient outcomes? 4.

Trauma, alltså svår fysisk skada och kroppens svar på sådan skada, dödar nästan 4.5 miljoner människor varje år. Detta är mer än det totala antalet människor som dör i malaria, tuberkulos, HIV/AIDS och mödradödlighet sammanlagt. Bland barn och unga vuxna mellan 5 och 29 år är trauma den vanligaste dödsorsaken. Över 90% av alla dödsfall sker i låg- och medelinkomstländer och en stor andel dör på sjukhus.Trauma är nära kopplat till fattigdom eftersom behandlingen ofta är dyr och det kan ta lång tid för den som drabbats att återgå i arbete, om den drabbade överlever. Ofta är det familjeförsörjaren som skadas och då drabbas hela familen. Därför är det viktigt för hållbar utveckling globalt att minska båda dödlighet och sjuklighet som orsakas av trauma.En metod som används för att förbättra vården av traumapatienter på sjukhus är särskilda träningsprogram i akut omhändertagande. Det finns flera sådana program men det mest kända programmet kallas Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) och är ett amerikanskt koncept. Att gå ATLS är dock dyrt och därför har genomslaget i låg- och medelinkomstländer varit begränsat.Därför har olika alternativa program skapats. Primary Trauma Care (PTC) är ett gratis träningsprogram som liknar ATLS men som utvecklades specifikt för att passa den resursknappa kontexten i många låg- och medelinkomstländer. PTC har därför rekommenderats av Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) för att förbättra vården av traumapatienter på sjukhus i låg- och medelinkomstländer.Trots att ATLS har funnits i nästan 35 år och PTC i nästan 25 år så finns det ingen forskning av hög kvalitet som visar att användandet av dessa program, eller några andra liknande program, leder till minskad dödlighet eller sjuklighet hos traumapatienter. Läkare och beslutsfattare världen över lägger alltså mycket tid och pengar på att genomföra träningsprogram utan att veta om det hjälper.Vårt nätverk av forskare i Sverige och Indien syftar till att öka kunskapen om effekten av att träna läkare i ATLS och PTC på dödlighet och sjuklighet hos traumapatienter. Vi kommer att planera forskning av hög kvalitet där vi ska jämföra vården som ges av läkare som tränats antingen med ATLS, PTC eller inget av dem. Vi kommer att genomföra denna forskning på sjukhus i Indien dels eftersom problemet med trauma är större där men också för att en stor andel av svenska läkare redan tränats i ATLS.I nätverket kommer vi att arrangera seminarier och möten för att främja ett ömsesidigt kunskapsutbyte. Vi kommer att konsultera patientgrupper och allmänheten i Indien för att låta dem kommentera på forskningen som planeras samt få en inblick i vilka utfall de prioriterar.

Oavsett så är resultatet viktigt för hur traumavård ska planeras i låg- och medelinkomstländer som Indien men också i höginkomstländer som Sverige. Om programmen har effekt bör man undersöka hur fler kan tränas.

The collaboration is aimed at capacity building, enhancing community participation,involving policymakers for preventing stubble burning, improving health conditions. The findings of the proposed research are expected to help a large part of Asia and Africa where burning of crop residues is prevalent and is identified as a major cause of concern.Air, water and soil quality will be measured using air, water and soil meters pre and post harvesting periods in Punjab i.e. before October and during November. At the same time, HRQoL in all four selected villages will be measured. Two FGDs will be performed, in the core and in far away areas of stubble burning. One FGD will be conducted with the migrated labours and one KIIs will be performed with the neighborhood leaders, village leaders, Block Development Officers (BDO), Sub-divisional officers (SDO) and agricultural officers.The collaboration targets to build up a strong research team and environment focusing scientific articles, reports, dissemination and multiple research grant applications in near future to the appropriate funding agencies. Övergripande mål med forskningen är att 1) utforska samhällets uppfattning, erfarenhet, sociala- och psykologiska faktorer i samband med förbränning av skördeavfall 2) få insikt i förutsättningarna för hälsorelaterad livskvalitet bland lokalbefolkningen och säsongsarbetare som bor i regioner med frekvent förekommande förbränningen av skördeavfall 3) undersöka om skördeavfallsförbränning påverkar luft-, vatten- och jordkvalitet. Samarbetet har även som mål att bidra till kapacitetsuppbyggnad och samhällsdeltagande för att minska skördeavfallsförbränning, förbättra hälsan i målgruppen, främja samarbete och involvera beslutsfattare. Resultaten förväntas att gagna populationer i Asien och Afrika där skördeavfallsförbränning är frekvent förekommande och ett stort hälsoproblem.Förbränning av skördeavfall är ett stort hälso- och miljöproblem i Indien, Asien och Afrika.  En av de största utmaningarna i regionen Punjab, i norra Indien är eliminering av skördeavfall från  ris och vete. Skördeavfallsförbränningen emitterar en betydande mängd utsläpp av växthusgaser och luftföroreningar (t ex. CO2, NOx, CH4, CO, NH3, NOx, SO2) som innebär en ökad risk för människors hälsa såväl som risker för  jordbruksmark och grödors produktivitet. Luftföroreningarna bidrar inte bara till risk för sjukdom, utan även människors förmåga till försörjning på grund av sänkt arbetskapacitet..Denna mix-metodstudie kommer att genomförs i fyra strategiskt utvalda byar i Punjab regionen i Indien, där skördeavfallsförbränning är ett årligen återkommande problem. Den kvantitativa datainsamlingen kommer mäta hälsa och livskvalitet (HRQoL) med valida versioner av EQ-5D. Mätning av HRQoL kommer att ske bland exponerade individer och i sårbara grupper såsom barn, äldre och gravida kvinnor. Mätningen görs två gånger - före respektive efter skördeförbränningssäsongen. Säsongsarbete (plantering- och skördesäsong) inom jordbrukssektorn utgör en betydande andel av arbetstillfällena i de aktuella regionerna. HRQoL kommer att ge en djupgående förståelse för hur skördeavfallsförbränning påverkar säsongsarbetarnas hälsa, även under övriga året då de är verksamma i andra delar av Indien. Den kvantitativa datainsamlingen kommer att kompletteras med fokusgruppsdiskussioner (FGD) för att utforska vanligt förekommande uppfattningar om och erfarenheter av skördeavfallsförbränningens påverkan på hälsa. Familjeöverhuvudena, kvinnor, unga vuxna, äldre och gravida kvinnor kommer att utgöra målgrupperna för FGD.Samarbetet kommer att äga rum mellan forskare vid institutionen för hälsovetenskap (HLV) , Mittuniversitetet (MIUN) och Indian Institute of Technology, Ropar (IITRpr).

The collaboration is aimed at capacity building, enhancing community participation,involving policymakers for preventing stubble burning, improving health conditions. The findings of the proposed research are expected to help a large part of Asia and Africa where burning of crop residues is prevalent and is identified as a major cause of concern.Air, water and soil quality will be measured using air, water and soil meters pre and post harvesting periods in Punjab i.e. before October and during November. At the same time, HRQoL in all four selected villages will be measured. Two FGDs will be performed, in the core and in far away areas of stubble burning. One FGD will be conducted with the migrated labours and one KIIs will be performed with the neighborhood leaders, village leaders, Block Development Officers (BDO), Sub-divisional officers (SDO) and agricultural officers.The collaboration targets to build up a strong research team and environment focusing scientific articles, reports, dissemination and multiple research grant applications in near future to the appropriate funding agencies. Övergripande mål med forskningen är att 1) utforska samhällets uppfattning, erfarenhet, sociala- och psykologiska faktorer i samband med förbränning av skördeavfall 2) få insikt i förutsättningarna för hälsorelaterad livskvalitet bland lokalbefolkningen och säsongsarbetare som bor i regioner med frekvent förekommande förbränningen av skördeavfall 3) undersöka om skördeavfallsförbränning påverkar luft-, vatten- och jordkvalitet. Samarbetet har även som mål att bidra till kapacitetsuppbyggnad och samhällsdeltagande för att minska skördeavfallsförbränning, förbättra hälsan i målgruppen, främja samarbete och involvera beslutsfattare. Resultaten förväntas att gagna populationer i Asien och Afrika där skördeavfallsförbränning är frekvent förekommande och ett stort hälsoproblem.Förbränning av skördeavfall är ett stort hälso- och miljöproblem i Indien, Asien och Afrika.  En av de största utmaningarna i regionen Punjab, i norra Indien är eliminering av skördeavfall från  ris och vete. Skördeavfallsförbränningen emitterar en betydande mängd utsläpp av växthusgaser och luftföroreningar (t ex. CO2, NOx, CH4, CO, NH3, NOx, SO2) som innebär en ökad risk för människors hälsa såväl som risker för  jordbruksmark och grödors produktivitet.

In recent years, Mozambique has experienced several climate related environmental disasters, including the dramatic cyclone flooding in the central and northern regions of the country. In response, the government set up a Post Cyclone Idai and Kenneth Reconstruction Office to oversee reconstruction in areas affected by the two powerful cyclones.But, having recently adopted the 2030 Agenda of Sustainable Development Goals, Mozambique is identified as an emerging economy, with high potential in what concerns extractivist industry, in particular liquefied natural gas and hydrocarbons. In this project we will explore how these opposing movements and strategies are being perceived and addressed at the local level, studying how different stakeholders (governmental, aid and development agencies, activist and civic mobilizations) are participating in the discussion. We will conduct on-site case studies in regions of the country (Center, North) where the intersection of environmental disaster and extractivist project are most visible. Under de senaste åren har vi regelbundet konfronterats med miljökatastrofer skapade av människan. Samtidigt som de politiska debatterna om klimatförändringar och miljöaktivism fortsätter att växa, intensifierar regeringar och internationella organisationer sina ansträngningar för att skapa en global ram för en hållbar utveckling i syfte att uppnå "en bättre och mer hållbar framtid för alla". En viktig aspekt av denna hållbara utveckling är dess konsekvenser förmänskliga rättigheter och ekonomisk och social jämlikhet. Agenda 2030, eller FNs strategi för hållbar utveckling främjar   en minskning av fossilt bränsleberoende och ”hållbar industrialisering”. Trots att det råder ett globalt samförstånd om ratificeringen av Agenda 2030fortsätter exploateringen av fossila bränslen - en viktig källa till klimatförändringar - att växa och diversifieras och i många utvecklingsländer framstår sådan exploatering som ett löfte om en snabb ekonomisk tillväxt. I många fall utgör detta emellertid en grundläggande konflikt eftersom dessa länder samtidigt är de som riskerar att drabbas hårdast av pågående och framtida klimatförändringar. Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka hur olika aktörer i ett utvecklingsland ser på motsättningen i att kombinera en hållbar utveckling under de kommande åren med en önskan om ekonomisk tillväxt och välstånd. Hur påverkar erfarenheter av miljörisker olika aktörers positioner?  Hur positionerar sig det lokala civilsamhället inför denna konflikt? Detta projekt analyserar dessa frågor genom en fallstudie av Moçambique, ett land som har upplevt en ökande sårbarhet när det gäller miljökatastrofer, och samtidigt framställer sig som en tillväxtekonomi grundad i en ökande exploatering av naturgas.

The focus is on present practices relating “food sovereignty”. While food sovereignty is a dynamic concept, it usually imply the pursuit of both environmental and livelihood goals. In a similar fashion, indigenous upland communities in the region are reviving and revaluing traditional agricultural practices to cope with climate change and contemporary environmental risks. The overall question addressed concerns indigenous livelihood practices and food security in upland areas. We approach this through three interrelated themes: (a) plants; (b) crop losses; and (c) food. Theoretically we bring food sovereignty studies in conversation with agrarian studies, political ecology and multispecies studies. The project also draws on recent work within indigenous peoples’ studies that looks at indigenous sovereignty not only as a matter of political self-determination, but also as mode of living differently on the land. Here plants, agricultural practices and food figure prominently as a domain to build sovereignty from within. Regional partners are: (a) North Eastern Social Research Centre (NESRC ) in Guwahati Northeast India; (b) The Royal Thimphu College in Bhutan; (c) Social Sciences Baha in Kathmandu Nepal, and (d) The Asian University for Women in C hittagong, Bangladesh. Projektet Att Praktisera Matsuveränitet: Ursprungsfolk och Agroekologiska Förhållanden i Östra Himalaya är geografiskt förlagt till bergsområdet C hittagong Hill Tracts i Bangladesh, till nordöstra Indien samt angränsande områden i Bhutan och Nepal. Dessa områden ingår i den region som betecknas som Östra Himalaya. Projektet focus är på hållbar matförsörjning hos ursprungsfolken i dessa högländer. Vi tar utgångspunkten i termen ”matsuveränitet”, en normativ term som inte enbart beaktar tillgången till mat utan också pekar på behovet att lokalbefolkningen har kontroll över hela försörjningskedjan; rätten till odlingsmark, till utsäde, boskap, förädling, och tillgång till marknader och ny kunskap. Matsuveränitet är idag en global angelägenhet, centralt för ursprungsfolk världen över. Högländer, inte minst i Himalaya, har visat sig speciellt utsatta för klimatförändringar. Kraftiga stormar, oregelbunden nederbörd, högre temperaturer, erosion, jordskred och angrepp av skadedjur gör att människor får allt svårare att klara sin försörjning. En rad nationella och internationella organisationer arbetar idag med att skapa bättre förutsättningar för ett hållbart jordbruk i utsatta höglandsområden. Östra Himalaya är ett sådant område. En viktig del av detta arbete består i en omdefinition av traditionellt svedjebruk. Tidigare har staterna i regionen försökt begränsa eller helt stoppa svedjebruk. Idag har man alltmer gått över till att hitta sätt att anpassa svedjebruk till dagens situation och tar fasta på den biologiska mångfald, det stora antal olika grödor som odlas. I denna studie kommer vi att följa de insatser som görs och de olika aktörer som är involverade i detta arbete. Den övergripande frågan för projektet rör ursprungsfolks försörjningspraktiker, agroekologiska förutsättningar och klimatförändringar i Östra Himalaya. Studien är organiserad runt tre sammanlänkande teman; a) växter, b) skadeförluster och c) mat. Respektive tema kommer att studeras utifrån en specifik ingång. Vad gäller växter är ingången, traditionella ”landraser” (heritage plants) som hirs och bovete. Vi kommer att följa de försök som görs att återintroducera traditionella grödor som visat sig mer resilienta och näringsrika än moderna, växtförädlade, grödor. Under temat skadeförluster är ingången den kinesiska fruktflugan vilken angriper fruktoch grönsaks odlingar, samt elefanter vilka speciellt i de mer låglänta bergsområdena har stor åverkan på jordbruket. Den asiatiska elefantens livsutrymme minskar snabbt och med det ökar också konflikterna med lokalbefolkningen. Här kommer vi att följa hur ursprungsfolken i regionen handskas med de djur och insekter som söker sig till och lever av deras grödor. För temat mat, slutligen, är ingången de olika traditionella metoderna för att tillaga och bevara mat, speciellt fermentering. Fermenterad mat spelar stor roll i ursprungsfolkens kök, och den traditionella maten har fått en allt större betydelse som identitetsmarkör och som del av de politiska projektet att värna gruppens autonomi eller självbestämmande. Ursprungsfolken har globalt sett en hög andel fattiga. Situationen skiljer sig åt mellan de fyra länderna som ingår i studien, men generellt sett har politisk oro, väpnade konflikter och övergrepp på mänskliga rättigheter haft stor inverkan på de lokala försörjningssystemen. De accelererande klimatförändringarna har ökat på denna sårbarhet. Trots enorma utmaningarna så finns idag en ökad medvetenhet och ett politiskt intresse nationellt och globalt för att stärka ursprungsfolks och andra marginaliserade gruppers möjlighet att bedriva ett ekologiskt och socialt hållbart jordbruk. FNs hållbarhetsmål är ett uttryck för detta, speciellt genom mål 2 ”ingen hunger”, mål 11 ”hållbara samhällen” och mål 15 ”ekosystem och biologisk mångfald”. Genom detta forskningsprojekt stödjer vi dessa strävanden.

Projektet Att Praktisera Matsuveränitet: Ursprungsfolk och Agroekologiska Förhållanden i Östra Himalaya är geografiskt förlagt till bergsområdet C hittagong Hill Tracts i Bangladesh, till nordöstra Indien samt angränsande områden i Bhutan och Nepal. Dessa områden ingår i den region som betecknas som Östra Himalaya. Projektet focus är på hållbar matförsörjning hos ursprungsfolken i dessa högländer. Vi tar utgångspunkten i termen ”matsuveränitet”, en normativ term som inte enbart beaktar tillgången till mat utan också pekar på behovet att lokalbefolkningen har kontroll över hela försörjningskedjan; rätten till odlingsmark, till utsäde, boskap, förädling, och tillgång till marknader och ny kunskap. Matsuveränitet är idag en global angelägenhet, centralt för ursprungsfolk världen över. Högländer, inte minst i Himalaya, har visat sig speciellt utsatta för klimatförändringar. Kraftiga stormar, oregelbunden nederbörd, högre temperaturer, erosion, jordskred och angrepp av skadedjur gör att människor får allt svårare att klara sin försörjning. En rad nationella och internationella organisationer arbetar idag med att skapa bättre förutsättningar för ett hållbart jordbruk i utsatta höglandsområden. Östra Himalaya är ett sådant område. En viktig del av detta arbete består i en omdefinition av traditionellt svedjebruk. Tidigare har staterna i regionen försökt begränsa eller helt stoppa svedjebruk. Idag har man alltmer gått över till att hitta sätt att anpassa svedjebruk till dagens situation och tar fasta på den biologiska mångfald, det stora antal olika grödor som odlas. I denna studie kommer vi att följa de insatser som görs och de olika aktörer som är involverade i detta arbete. Den övergripande frågan för projektet rör ursprungsfolks försörjningspraktiker, agroekologiska förutsättningar och klimatförändringar i Östra Himalaya. Studien är organiserad runt tre sammanlänkande teman; a) växter, b) skadeförluster och c) mat. Respektive tema kommer att studeras utifrån en specifik ingång. Vad gäller växter är ingången, traditionella ”landraser” (heritage plants) som hirs och bovete. Vi kommer att följa de försök som görs att återintroducera traditionella grödor som visat sig mer resilienta och näringsrika än moderna, växtförädlade, grödor. Under temat skadeförluster är ingången den kinesiska fruktflugan vilken angriper fruktoch grönsaks odlingar, samt elefanter vilka speciellt i de mer låglänta bergsområdena har stor åverkan på jordbruket. Den asiatiska elefantens livsutrymme minskar snabbt och med det ökar också konflikterna med lokalbefolkningen. Här kommer vi att följa hur ursprungsfolken i regionen handskas med de djur och insekter som söker sig till och lever av deras grödor. För temat mat, slutligen, är ingången de olika traditionella metoderna för att tillaga och bevara mat, speciellt fermentering. Fermenterad mat spelar stor roll i ursprungsfolkens kök, och den traditionella maten har fått en allt större betydelse som identitetsmarkör och som del av de politiska projektet att värna gruppens autonomi eller självbestämmande. Ursprungsfolken har globalt sett en hög andel fattiga. Situationen skiljer sig åt mellan de fyra länderna som ingår i studien, men generellt sett har politisk oro, väpnade konflikter och övergrepp på mänskliga rättigheter haft stor inverkan på de lokala försörjningssystemen. De accelererande klimatförändringarna har ökat på denna sårbarhet. Trots enorma utmaningarna så finns idag en ökad medvetenhet och ett politiskt intresse nationellt och globalt för att stärka ursprungsfolks och andra marginaliserade gruppers möjlighet att bedriva ett ekologiskt och socialt hållbart jordbruk. FNs hållbarhetsmål är ett uttryck för detta, speciellt genom mål 2 ”ingen hunger”, mål 11 ”hållbara samhällen” och mål 15 ”ekosystem och biologisk mångfald”.

It is estimated that one quarter of the world’s population is infected with TB. Focusing on mycobacterial aerosolization as a crucial step in TB transmission, we have developed a simple, point-of-care electrostatic air-sampling device, called THOR, to estimate the transmission risk posed by TB cases. Despite its widespread use in manufacturing, electrostatic air sampling for TB has not been used. Conventional air-sampling methods for TB are restricted to dedicated research settings due to the impractical equipment required.In this project proposal, we will build on previous results to optimize clinical sampling procedures and compare the device in combination with Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra with conventional air samplers in controlled clinical conditions. Finally, we will describe the association between index case aerosol sampling and transmission through a household contact study.Research will be conducted in Mozambique, South Africa and Sweden to utilise state-of-the-art tools for controlled laboratory studies and clinical research expertise in high TB incidence settings.We hope results from this project will lead to changes in the way transmission risk is evaluated by clinicians through the concurrent diagnosis of TB disease in patients and risk of household transmission amongst their contacts. Tuberkulos (TBC) är den sjukdom i världen som dödar flest människor med över 1,4 miljoner dödsfall 2018. Sjukdomen orsakas av bakterien Mycobacterium tuberculosis och är en så kallad luftburen smitta. När en person som är sjuk i TBC hostar kommer små droppar som innehåller bakterier ut i luften. Dessa droppar kan cirkulera i luften under många timmar och dropparna kan andas in av andra personer vilka då infekteras av TBC. För de flesta personer som infekteras kommer immunförsvaret att förhindra att bakterierna växer till och bakterierna lägger sig istället i en vilande fas, vilket kallas latent TBC. Under sin livstid kommer en andel av personer som smittats av TBC att utveckla symptom vilket kallas aktiv TBC. Dessa personer kan i sin tur smitta andra individer. En person med omoget eller nedsatt immunförsvar såsom små barn eller personer med HIV blir snabbare sjuka med TBC och kan insjukna med mer allvarligare former.Behandling av aktiv TBC och latent TBC är oftast mycket effektiv. Att behandla en person med aktiv TBC är livräddande och stoppar snabbt smittsamheten. Behandling av latent TBC minskar risken dramatiskt att personen senare skall utveckla aktiv TBC och således smitta andra. De diagnostiska verktyg vi har idag för att upptäcka latent TBC är tyvärr otillräckliga. Testen har begränsad möjlighet att förutsäga vilka patienter som i framtiden kommer utveckla aktiv TBC trots att upprepade tester kan tas. Dessutom kan de kräva avancerad laboratorieverksamhet. Alla tester är sämst för patienter som lever med HIV eller små barn vilka har störst risk att utveckla aktiv TBC efter smitta och snabbt kan bli mycket sjuka. För att förbättra möjligheten att upptäcka om patienter med aktiv lung-TBC hostar upp bakterier har vi har utvecklat en bärbar, billig och användarvänlig luftprovtagningsapparat. Apparaten filtrerar droppar i luften och kan på så sätt ta tillvara på bakteriematerial som finns i dropparna. Bakteriematerialet som samlas in kommer att testas med ett snabbtest för TBC som är både automatiserat, billigt och internationellt tillgängligt, sk Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra. Vi kommer utvärdera om patienter som hostar upp större mängder bakterier har en ökad risk att smitta sina familjemedlemmar med TBC.I en första studie kommer vi utvärdera det optimala sättet för apparaten att upptäcka luftburna TBC-bakterier där hosta simulerats i ett laboratorium i Sverige. I den andra studien skall vi utvärdera apparatens kapacitet då vi jämför apparaten med en redan känd metod för att detektera luftburen TBC-smitta från patienter i ett forskningscentrum i Kapstaden, Sydafrika.I den sista studien som kommer utföras i Mocambique skall vi utvärdera om patienter med luftburna TBC-bakterier i hosta har en större risk att sprida TBC till sina familjemedlemmar. Patienter med lung-TBC som deltar i studien kommer testas med apparaten för att utvärdera hur mycket bakterier som är luftburna vid hostningar. Vi kommer sedan testa alla familjemedlemmar under 5 år för aktiv och latent TBC, eftersom mindre barn främst smittas inom familjen och har samtidigt större risk att utveckla aktiv TBC. Studien kommer utvärdera om luftburna TBC-bakterier hos patienten ger en högre risk för smitta inom familjen.Vi hoppas att apparaten skall kunna hjälpa sjukvården att definiera vilka patienter som har större risk att smitta andra med TBC. Därigenom kan sjukvårdens resurser användas mer effektivt för smittspårning och behandling av latent TBC.

Finally, we will describe the association between index case aerosol sampling and transmission through a household contact study.Research will be conducted in Mozambique, South Africa and Sweden to utilise state-of-the-art tools for controlled laboratory studies and clinical research expertise in high TB incidence settings.We hope results from this project will lead to changes in the way transmission risk is evaluated by clinicians through the concurrent diagnosis of TB disease in patients and risk of household transmission amongst their contacts. Tuberkulos (TBC) är den sjukdom i världen som dödar flest människor med över 1,4 miljoner dödsfall 2018. Sjukdomen orsakas av bakterien Mycobacterium tuberculosis och är en så kallad luftburen smitta. När en person som är sjuk i TBC hostar kommer små droppar som innehåller bakterier ut i luften. Dessa droppar kan cirkulera i luften under många timmar och dropparna kan andas in av andra personer vilka då infekteras av TBC. För de flesta personer som infekteras kommer immunförsvaret att förhindra att bakterierna växer till och bakterierna lägger sig istället i en vilande fas, vilket kallas latent TBC. Under sin livstid kommer en andel av personer som smittats av TBC att utveckla symptom vilket kallas aktiv TBC. Dessa personer kan i sin tur smitta andra individer. En person med omoget eller nedsatt immunförsvar såsom små barn eller personer med HIV blir snabbare sjuka med TBC och kan insjukna med mer allvarligare former.Behandling av aktiv TBC och latent TBC är oftast mycket effektiv. Att behandla en person med aktiv TBC är livräddande och stoppar snabbt smittsamheten. Behandling av latent TBC minskar risken dramatiskt att personen senare skall utveckla aktiv TBC och således smitta andra. De diagnostiska verktyg vi har idag för att upptäcka latent TBC är tyvärr otillräckliga. Testen har begränsad möjlighet att förutsäga vilka patienter som i framtiden kommer utveckla aktiv TBC trots att upprepade tester kan tas. Dessutom kan de kräva avancerad laboratorieverksamhet. Alla tester är sämst för patienter som lever med HIV eller små barn vilka har störst risk att utveckla aktiv TBC efter smitta och snabbt kan bli mycket sjuka. För att förbättra möjligheten att upptäcka om patienter med aktiv lung-TBC hostar upp bakterier har vi har utvecklat en bärbar, billig och användarvänlig luftprovtagningsapparat. Apparaten filtrerar droppar i luften och kan på så sätt ta tillvara på bakteriematerial som finns i dropparna. Bakteriematerialet som samlas in kommer att testas med ett snabbtest för TBC som är både automatiserat, billigt och internationellt tillgängligt, sk Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra. Vi kommer utvärdera om patienter som hostar upp större mängder bakterier har en ökad risk att smitta sina familjemedlemmar med TBC.I en första studie kommer vi utvärdera det optimala sättet för apparaten att upptäcka luftburna TBC-bakterier där hosta simulerats i ett laboratorium i Sverige. I den andra studien skall vi utvärdera apparatens kapacitet då vi jämför apparaten med en redan känd metod för att detektera luftburen TBC-smitta från patienter i ett forskningscentrum i Kapstaden, Sydafrika.I den sista studien som kommer utföras i Mocambique skall vi utvärdera om patienter med luftburna TBC-bakterier i hosta har en större risk att sprida TBC till sina familjemedlemmar. Patienter med lung-TBC som deltar i studien kommer testas med apparaten för att utvärdera hur mycket bakterier som är luftburna vid hostningar. Vi kommer sedan testa alla familjemedlemmar under 5 år för aktiv och latent TBC, eftersom mindre barn främst smittas inom familjen och har samtidigt större risk att utveckla aktiv TBC. Studien kommer utvärdera om luftburna TBC-bakterier hos patienten ger en högre risk för smitta inom familjen.Vi hoppas att apparaten skall kunna hjälpa sjukvården att definiera vilka patienter som har större risk att smitta andra med TBC. Därigenom kan sjukvårdens resurser användas mer effektivt för smittspårning och behandling av latent TBC.

Why do some civil wars become more severe than others? Surprisingly, our knowledge on this pertinent question is limited. First, while previous research has identified some factors that drive the death toll upwards, our understanding of the factors that restrain escalation and depress the body count remains narrow. We emphasize both causes of escalation and restraint and explore how actor characteristics, institutions, and norms restrain actors’ use of violence. Second, earlier scholarship tends to compare the most severe civil wars to all others. In contrast, we break new ground by identifying civil wars that saw low severity despite a high risk of escalation. Comparing these cases to more severe civil wars will yield new insights on the sources of restraint in civil war. This project seeks to both build and test theory. To develop a theory of how factors interact to influence civil war severity, we will compare Sudan (Darfur) and Côte d’Ivoire, and conduct a Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) of an intermediate number of cases. To test the theory, we will employ process tracing on cases selected from the QCA to examine temporal and spatial variation, and conduct a global statistical analysis of civil war severity. Deepening knowledge on restraint in civil war is crucial for building resilient societies and contain existing civil wars. Inbördeskrig är ett av de största hoten mot människors liv och välfärd. Syrienkriget har till exempel kostat minst 345,000 människors liv sedan 2011. De flesta inbördeskrig blir dock aldrig så allvarliga som det i Syrien. Under 2018 så pågick det inbördeskrig i 34 länder och mer än hälften av alla som dog i dessa krig dog i Syrien eller Afghanistan. Även mellan länder med liknande riskfaktorer finns skillnader. Till exempel varnade experter i såväl Elfenbenskusten som Sudan (Darfur) för att inbördeskrigen där kunde utvecklas till ”ett nytt Rwanda”. 15 år senare pågår fortfarande kriget i Darfur och konflikten har lett till mer än 300 000 dödsoffer. I Elfenbenskusten så avslutades konflikten 2011 efter att drygt 3000 människor dött. Vissa inbördeskrig leder därmed till enorma humanitära katastrofer medan andra förblir relativt småskaliga. Varför blir vissa inbördeskrig värre än andra? Förvånande nog – och trots att frågan är av högsta vikt för att rädda människoliv – så är vår kunskap rörande konfliktintensitet bristfällig. Medan tidigare forskning har fokuserat på de faktorer som eskalerar våldet så har de faktorer som begränsar våldet hittills hamnat i skymundan. Precis som forskning inom medicin fokuserar på varför vissa patienter med samma sjukdom får mer eller mindre allvarliga symptom menar vi att man måste studera vilka faktorer som gör att vissa inbördeskrig blir så mycket värre än andra. Vi har med andra ord bristande inblick i varför de flesta inbördeskrig inte eskalerar till en extrem nivå och varför många stater och rebellgrupper faktiskt begränsar sin våldsanvändning. För att råda bot på detta så är projektets teoretiska utgångspunkt att man måste fokusera på såväl orsaker till eskalering som faktorer som leder till återhållsamhet. Då forskning rörande faktorer som får aktörer att hålla tillbaka sitt våldsanvändande är väldigt eftersatt ämnar vi att utveckla ett teoretiskt ramverk som studerar orsaker till återhållsamhet relaterat till de aktörskaraktärsdrag, institutioner och normer som bidrar till att begränsa våldet. En annan brist i existerande forskning är att den oftast jämfört extremt våldsamma inbördeskrig med alla som inte eskalerar till den intensiteten. Det är olyckligt då inte alla inbördeskrig har samma potential att bli våldsamma. En viktig del av vårt projekt är att identifiera krig som inte blev så allvarliga som befarats trots att de hade en hög risk att eskalera till storskaliga krig. Genom att studera dessa fall kan vi identifiera nya faktorer som leder till återhållsamhet snarare än eskalering. Projektet består av fyra steg, där de två första stegen ämnar att utveckla ny teori medan de två senare syftar till att testa teorin. I både den teoriutvecklande och den teoritestande delen så kommer vi kombinera kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod. Det första steget består i att identifiera faktorer som begränsar våldsanvändningen genom att jämföra inbördeskriget i Darfur (Sudan) med kriget i Elfenbenskusten. I det andra steget breddar vi vårt fokus till ett större urval (ungefär 15) av inbördeskrig för att utforska hur olika faktorer samspelar. I vårt tredje steg gör vi djupdykningar i några fall för att testa huruvida vårt teoretiska ramverk kan förklara variation i konfliktintensitet över tid och mellan olika delar av konfliktdrabbade länder. Slutligen kommer vi att testa det teoretiska ramverkets allmängiltighet genom en statistisk analys av alla inbördeskrig i världen.  Fördjupad kunskap om varför vissa inbördeskrig blir så mycket värre än andra är väsentlig för beslutsfattare som vill begränsa våld och minska fattigdom. Inbördeskrig av Syriens kaliber orsakar hundratusentals dödsfall och driver miljontals människor på flykt. Samtidigt underminerar dessa krig fattigdomsbekämpning och andra utvecklingsmål. Genom att fördjupa vår förståelse för vad som driver återhållsamhet i krig kan vår forskning belysa vilka åtgärder som bäst kan bidra till att minska våldet och därmed det mänskliga lidandet.

Till exempel varnade experter i såväl Elfenbenskusten som Sudan (Darfur) för att inbördeskrigen där kunde utvecklas till ”ett nytt Rwanda”. 15 år senare pågår fortfarande kriget i Darfur och konflikten har lett till mer än 300 000 dödsoffer. I Elfenbenskusten så avslutades konflikten 2011 efter att drygt 3000 människor dött. Vissa inbördeskrig leder därmed till enorma humanitära katastrofer medan andra förblir relativt småskaliga. Varför blir vissa inbördeskrig värre än andra? Förvånande nog – och trots att frågan är av högsta vikt för att rädda människoliv – så är vår kunskap rörande konfliktintensitet bristfällig. Medan tidigare forskning har fokuserat på de faktorer som eskalerar våldet så har de faktorer som begränsar våldet hittills hamnat i skymundan. Precis som forskning inom medicin fokuserar på varför vissa patienter med samma sjukdom får mer eller mindre allvarliga symptom menar vi att man måste studera vilka faktorer som gör att vissa inbördeskrig blir så mycket värre än andra. Vi har med andra ord bristande inblick i varför de flesta inbördeskrig inte eskalerar till en extrem nivå och varför många stater och rebellgrupper faktiskt begränsar sin våldsanvändning. För att råda bot på detta så är projektets teoretiska utgångspunkt att man måste fokusera på såväl orsaker till eskalering som faktorer som leder till återhållsamhet. Då forskning rörande faktorer som får aktörer att hålla tillbaka sitt våldsanvändande är väldigt eftersatt ämnar vi att utveckla ett teoretiskt ramverk som studerar orsaker till återhållsamhet relaterat till de aktörskaraktärsdrag, institutioner och normer som bidrar till att begränsa våldet. En annan brist i existerande forskning är att den oftast jämfört extremt våldsamma inbördeskrig med alla som inte eskalerar till den intensiteten. Det är olyckligt då inte alla inbördeskrig har samma potential att bli våldsamma. En viktig del av vårt projekt är att identifiera krig som inte blev så allvarliga som befarats trots att de hade en hög risk att eskalera till storskaliga krig. Genom att studera dessa fall kan vi identifiera nya faktorer som leder till återhållsamhet snarare än eskalering. Projektet består av fyra steg, där de två första stegen ämnar att utveckla ny teori medan de två senare syftar till att testa teorin. I både den teoriutvecklande och den teoritestande delen så kommer vi kombinera kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod. Det första steget består i att identifiera faktorer som begränsar våldsanvändningen genom att jämföra inbördeskriget i Darfur (Sudan) med kriget i Elfenbenskusten. I det andra steget breddar vi vårt fokus till ett större urval (ungefär 15) av inbördeskrig för att utforska hur olika faktorer samspelar. I vårt tredje steg gör vi djupdykningar i några fall för att testa huruvida vårt teoretiska ramverk kan förklara variation i konfliktintensitet över tid och mellan olika delar av konfliktdrabbade länder. Slutligen kommer vi att testa det teoretiska ramverkets allmängiltighet genom en statistisk analys av alla inbördeskrig i världen.  Fördjupad kunskap om varför vissa inbördeskrig blir så mycket värre än andra är väsentlig för beslutsfattare som vill begränsa våld och minska fattigdom. Inbördeskrig av Syriens kaliber orsakar hundratusentals dödsfall och driver miljontals människor på flykt. Samtidigt underminerar dessa krig fattigdomsbekämpning och andra utvecklingsmål. Genom att fördjupa vår förståelse för vad som driver återhållsamhet i krig kan vår forskning belysa vilka åtgärder som bäst kan bidra till att minska våldet och därmed det mänskliga lidandet.

Why do some civil wars become more severe than others? Surprisingly, our knowledge on this pertinent question is limited. First, while previous research has identified some factors that drive the death toll upwards, our understanding of the factors that restrain escalation and depress the body count remains narrow. We emphasize both causes of escalation and restraint and explore how actor characteristics, institutions, and norms restrain actors’ use of violence. Second, earlier scholarship tends to compare the most severe civil wars to all others. In contrast, we break new ground by identifying civil wars that saw low severity despite a high risk of escalation. Comparing these cases to more severe civil wars will yield new insights on the sources of restraint in civil war. This project seeks to both build and test theory. To develop a theory of how factors interact to influence civil war severity, we will compare Sudan (Darfur) and Côte d’Ivoire, and conduct a Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) of an intermediate number of cases. To test the theory, we will employ process tracing on cases selected from the QCA to examine temporal and spatial variation, and conduct a global statistical analysis of civil war severity. Deepening knowledge on restraint in civil war is crucial for building resilient societies and contain existing civil wars. Inbördeskrig är ett av de största hoten mot människors liv och välfärd.

It has been argued that their small population size does not warrant their study and that they, due to their smallness, do not even constitute real states. The limited amount of research on the political systems of small states has been quantitative work. This research has shown that states with populations below 500 000, to a remarkable degree, are democracies. At the same time, recent qualitative work suggests something rather contrary; that these states are only window-dressing as democracies. Hence, we are faced with a research conundrum that invites further inquiry. The purpose of this project is to analyze how the political systems of Kiribati, Vanuatu and São Tomé and Príncipe function in their everyday practice. We will i) investigate whether the statistical correlation between smallness and high levels of democratic performance is borne out in political practice, and investigate ii) the factors that explain democratic performance, or the lack thereof, in these states. To advance knowledge about these issues is not only of relevance for people who reside in these states, but for the democratization literature as a whole. This project is mainly based on qualitative fieldwork and interviews with politicians as well as journalists in the three states under scrutiny. It will be conducted 2021-2023 by two scholars at 20% and 50% respectively during each of the three years. Små stater, det vill säga stater som har en befolkningsmängd på mindre än 500 000, marginaliseras konsekvent inom forskning om staters politiska system. Anledningarna till varför forskare valt att förbise dessa stater i sina analyser är nästan lika många som ofta ovidkommande. Det har sagts att dessa stater är så pass små att de inte ens kan kvalificeras som ”riktiga” stater; att deras befolkningsmängd är för liten för att göra dem relevanta att studera; och att eftersom annan forskning inte inkluderat dessa stater i sina analyser, då behöver inte ens egen forskning göra det heller. Vi menar att den bristfälliga analysen av små stater och deras respektive politiska system är bekymmersam, särskilt i ljuset av att denna grupp av stater sticker ut i ett specifikt hänseende; i förhållande till stater med större befolkningsmängd, är dessa små stater nämligen till en anmärkningsvärt hög grad demokratier. Det verkar, med andra ord, finnas ett samband mellan ”litenhet” å ena sidan och demokrati å andra sidan. Detta är i alla fall vad statistiska databaser, likt Freedom House, som samlar data om staters politiska system indikerar. Det är dock mycket viktigt att i sammanhanget påtala att dessa forskningsresultat nåtts med hjälp av statistiska metoder – det handlar således inte om djuplodande kvalitativa analyser baserade på fältstudier. I detta projekt är vår ambition att komma tillrätta med dessa identifierade forskningsluckor. Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är att utforska och analysera hur det politiska systemet i tre små stater faktiskt fungerar. Vår ambition är att svara på två övergripande forskningsfrågor: 1) speglar den politiska verkligheten det statistiska samband som tidigare forskning visar? (dvs. i vilken utsträckning praktiserar dessa små stater verkligen demokrati?) 2) Vilka faktorer förklarar demokratiska prestationer, eller avsaknaden därav, i dessa små stater?De stater som utgör vårt empiriska intresse är de tre ö-rikena Kiribati, med 100 000 invånare; Vanuatu, med 300 000 invånare; samt São Tomé & Príncipe, med 200 000 invånare. Vi kommer att genomföra fältstudier i dessa tre områden, intervjua politiker i regeringsställning samt politiker i opposition, och även intervjua journalister för att få en så god insyn som möjligt i hur det politiska systemet i sin vardagliga praktik fungerar, för att därefter kunna dra slutsatser gällande huruvida dessa system de facto är demokratier eller snarare politiska system som inte är fullt ut demokratiska.Den forskning som kommer att genomföras inom detta projekt är betydelsefull på grund av tre huvudsakliga skäl. Först och främst; den kunskap vi genererar är av vikt för medborgare och organisationer som lever, och verkar, i dessa tre ö-riken. Genom ökad kunskap om vilka faktorer som driver, eller förhindrar, demokratisk utveckling i deras respektive stater kan riktade insatser utvecklas och implementeras för att initiera/fördjupa demokratiseringsprocesser. För det andra, forskningen vi generar i detta projekt kommer även att göra ett viktigt bidrag till demokratiseringslitteraturen. Denna litteratur gynnas inte, snarare tvärtom, av att samma delar – dvs. små stater – av ett empiriskt underlag konsekvent utesluts ur statsvetenskapliga analyser av politiska system. Detta förhindrar generella slutsatser. För det tredje, vi tror att resultaten från detta projekt kan initiera en diskussion om de statistiska databaser som statsvetare i stor utsträckning använder sig av. Om kvalitativa studier av politiska system, likt vår forskning, visar något diametralt annat än statistiska studiers resultat av samma fenomen, vad säger det då om dessa databasers tillförlitlighet och precision?

Despite hostilities, rights defenders need to become publicly visible as a group to raise awareness, seek support for rights claims, forge alliances and attract funding. The purpose of the project is to understand how visibility strategies and visibility management shape the agency of LGBTQ rights defenders in contexts of state-sanctioned homophobia, as well as examine how development partners (un)intentionally influence visibility practices through rhetoric and funding preferences. By mapping funding patterns and conducting interviews with rights defenders at four LGBTQ organizations in Uganda and Russia, as well as analyze their visibility in digital spaces, we seek to capture the rights defenders’ understanding of visibility, visibility pressures and corresponding visibility practices. Through a theoretical framework that combines agency and political opportunity structures, the study aims to contribute to a deepened and more nuanced conceptualization of visibility and its role in empowering marginalized groups, exploring when, for whom, where and what kinds of visibility are conducive to rights struggles in repressive contexts. The study also seeks to increase development partners’ awareness about unwitting impact on rights defenders’ agency, and expand capacity to develop context appropriate methods for repressive contexts. Trots stora landvinningar de senaste decennierna vad gäller homosexuellas, bisexuellas, transpersoners och queeras (hbtq) rättigheter, finns idag tydliga tecken på en global ”backlash”. Frågor om hbtq-rättigheter polariserar och möter starkt motstånd i många kontexter, med ökat förtryck, våld och förföljelse av sexuella minoriteter som resultat. Motståndet mot hbtq-rättigheter har även blivit alltmer välorganiserat och idag finns flera välfinansierade internationella nätverk vars syfte är att stötta konservativa rörelser och hbtq-fientliga aktörer runt om i världen. I detta hårdare politiska klimat har aktivisters synlighet seglat upp som ett dilemma. Att skapa synlighet för sin rättighetskamp har historiskt varit en viktig och framgångsrik strategi för hbtq-rörelser i väst. Genom organisering av Prideparader, medieframträdanden och andra synlighetsskapande aktiviteter har aktivister lyckats öka förståelsen för och skapa stöd för sin rättighetskamp. Dessa erfarenheter har skapat en internationell modell för hbtq-aktivism som influerat rörelser i många länder. Samtidigt som synlighet har kommit att betraktas som en ofrånkomlig del av aktivism, kan ökad synlighet i en del kontexter innebära markant ökade risker för diskriminering och våld för en redan utsatt grupp.Mot denna bakgrund syftar vårt projekt till att förstå hur strategier och hantering av synlighet formar handlingsutrymmet för hbtq-aktivister i länder där staten aktivt driver och/eller stödjer homofobi. Vi vill även undersöka hur utvecklingspartners såsom statliga biståndsmyndigheter och icke-statliga rättighetsorganisationer (o)avsiktligt påverkar aktivisters synlighetspraktiker, genom deras retorik kring hbtq-frågor samt vilken typ av aktiviteter som finansieras. Studien använder en fallstudiedesign, där Uganda och Ryssland, två länder där förtrycket mot hbtq-personer har ökat betydligt under det senaste decenniet, men som också har aktiva lokala hbtq-rörelser med etablerade kontaktytor mot utvecklingspartners och internationella rättighetsorganisationer, bedöms erbjuda en rik empiri att studera och förstå dilemman kring synlighet.Studien inleds med att kartlägga hur utvecklingspartners (o)avsiktligt påverkar lokala aktivisters synlighetspraktiker i Uganda och Ryssland, genom att analysera stödet till två centrala hbtq-organisationer i varje land. Analysen inbegriper en analys av vilka typer av projekt och aktiviteter som erhållit externt ekonomiskt och annat stöd över en tioårsperiod, samt intervjuer med organisationernas fundraising-ansvariga. Analysen skapar ökad kunskap kring upplevda och reella finansieringspreferenser och hur dessa påverkar lokala aktörers förståelse av synlighet och hantering av sin synlighet. I syfte att undersöka hbtq-aktivisters handlingsutrymme kommer vi att intervjua aktivister i Uganda och Ryssland om deras syn på synlighet, dess möjligheter och potentiella risker, samt upplevelser av förväntningar kring synlighet. Dessutom kommer vi att studera hur aktivister förhåller sig till, hanterar och använder digitala medier i syfte att styra sin organisations synlighet.          Projektet sträcker sig över tre år och utförs av en forskningsgrupp av statsvetare och medie- och kommunikationsvetare med stor erfarenhet av forskning och etablerade kontakter med hbtq-organisationer i Uganda och Ryssland genom tidigare fältarbete. Projektet avser att bidra till utvecklingsstudier med en mer nyanserad förståelse av hur synlighet inte bara spelar en roll för att stärka utsatta grupper, men också när och hur det riskerar bidra till ökad utsatthet. Genom en ökad förståelse kring den problematik som finns kring synlighet, avser studien bidra till utvecklingspartners medvetande kring sin egen roll och kapacitet att utveckla aktörsnära och kontextanpassade strategier. I en tid av ökat motstånd mot hbtq-rättigheter i många delar av världen är det centralt att internationellt rättighetsarbete utvecklar policy och strategier att möta denna nya verklighet.

I syfte att undersöka hbtq-aktivisters handlingsutrymme kommer vi att intervjua aktivister i Uganda och Ryssland om deras syn på synlighet, dess möjligheter och potentiella risker, samt upplevelser av förväntningar kring synlighet. Dessutom kommer vi att studera hur aktivister förhåller sig till, hanterar och använder digitala medier i syfte att styra sin organisations synlighet.          Projektet sträcker sig över tre år och utförs av en forskningsgrupp av statsvetare och medie- och kommunikationsvetare med stor erfarenhet av forskning och etablerade kontakter med hbtq-organisationer i Uganda och Ryssland genom tidigare fältarbete. Projektet avser att bidra till utvecklingsstudier med en mer nyanserad förståelse av hur synlighet inte bara spelar en roll för att stärka utsatta grupper, men också när och hur det riskerar bidra till ökad utsatthet. Genom en ökad förståelse kring den problematik som finns kring synlighet, avser studien bidra till utvecklingspartners medvetande kring sin egen roll och kapacitet att utveckla aktörsnära och kontextanpassade strategier. I en tid av ökat motstånd mot hbtq-rättigheter i många delar av världen är det centralt att internationellt rättighetsarbete utvecklar policy och strategier att möta denna nya verklighet.

The dryers should, have short drying time, be produced locally and be socially accepted by the smallholder farmers in Bhutan and Nepal. Solar drying, with its potential of preserving food in an environmental friendly way, is a much needed technology since agriculture is the main source of income for approximately 65 % of the population in these countries. Today a relatively large fraction of the produced crops is ruined before it is consumed. Poor drying technique leads to mold and fungi attacks on the crops. Additionally, poor drying technique leads to low quality product that pays little on the export market. For these reasons an improved drying technique could lead to less food waste and increased revenue for the farmers due to higher market prices for the crops. However, introducing a new technology for rural farmers cannot be done in a social vacuum. Old traditions and social factors such as gender structures and food preferences are important to understand. Such underlying socio-cultural factors will be studied in this project. The project aims to develop solar drying technology co-produced with farmers rather than for the farmers by following/applying a participatory research approach. De 17 globala målen för hållbar utveckling (Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs) som antogs av FN 2015 är en samling mål som syftar till att skapa en hållbar framtid för alla. I vårt projekt fokuserar vi framförallt på fyra av dessa mål, nr 1: Ingen fattigdom, nr 2: Ingen hunger, nr 3: God hälsa och välbefinnande och nr 7: Ekonomiskt överkomlig och ren energi. Vårt projekt går ut på att med hjälp av solenergi torka grödor på ett attraktivt sätt. Detta innebär bland annat att tekniken ska vara: enkel att använda, passa in socialt och ekonomiskt samt att de torkade produkterna håller en hög kvalitet och är efterfrågade på marknaden. Fyra av de globala målen för hållbar utveckling ligger i vårt fokus:1. Ingen fattigdom; då jordbrukarna kan få ett högre pris för en vara med högre kvalitet vilket uppnås med en förbättrad torkteknik. Torkade grödor har en betydligt längre hållbarhet än färska grödor. Detta gör att produkter kan säljas till ett högre pris under den del av säsongen då grödorna annars inte är tillgängliga.2. Ingen hunger; då mängden mat som förstörs under torkning och lagring idag kan minskas med hjälp av en effektivare torkteknik. Vidare öppnas möjligheter för att torka och bruka andra typer av grödor som annars inte skulle finns tillgängliga för säsongen. Ett breddat utbud av grödor gör samhället mindre känsligt för missväxt etc.3. God hälsa och välbefinnande; då fler livsmedel finns tillgängliga under större delar av året. En effektiv torkteknik säkerställer även att vitamininnehållet i produkterna bevaras så bra som möjligt.7. Ekonomiskt överkomlig och ren energi; då solenergi används för torkprocessen. Ett annars vanligt sätt att torka mat på är att använda fossila bränslen eller biobränsle. De fossila bränslena bidrar till utsläpp av växthusgaser medan användning av biobränsle kan leda till avskogning. Att använda solens energi medför relativt små ingrepp i naturen. Vidare krävs ingen energi för konserveringen. Om exempelvis kylar och frysar används kommer detta att leda till en kraftigt ökad elanvändning. Något som medför ökade kostnader för brukarna samtidigt som det innebär negativa miljökonsekvenser.När en teknik tas fram och introduceras i en ny kontext/kultur är det viktigt att detta inte görs i ett socialt vakuum. Om tekniken inte accepteras eller passar in är sannolikheten mindre att den introduceras fullt ut. Vi avser därför att utveckla tekniken tillsammans med jordbrukare och andra intressenter. Denna typ av utveckling har en ökad chans att få en bredare acceptans i samhället. Ekonomiska villkor, genusaspekter, traditioner och matpreferenser måste undersökas och inkluderas i teknikutvecklingen.Den tekniska utvecklingen sker genom att fysiska soltorksmodeller byggs och utvärderas i laboratorium på Lunds Universitet. Parallellt med mätningarna görs även simuleringar där värmeströmning och torkhastigheter kan beräknas. Kombinationen av mätningar och simuleringar är mycket fördelaktig då den genom mätkalibrering ger relativt tillförlitliga resultat samtidigt som datorsimuleringarna ger möjlighet till diverse parameterstudier för optimering av tekniken. I ett andra skede testas och utvärderas tekniken på plats i Bhutan och Nepal. Observationer från fälttester inkluderas i en andra och tredje iteration av soltorksutvecklingen. I projektets slut genomförs ett antal moment som syftar till att sprida kunskap och teknik. Tillsammans med jordbrukarna kommer vi att arrangera visningsdagar då intressenter bjuds in för att ta del av tekniken. Bland annat kommer NGOer och skolor att inkluderas i detta.

Women living in the rural areas of Low-and Middle-Income countries are disproportionately affected by BMS induced COPD as they cook for 4-6h/day using biomass fuel. Earlier lung was considered as sterile. With emerging evidence, the presence of normal lung microbiome and its role in maintaining homeostasis as well as in disease conditions is being realized. Alteration of normal lung microbiome may predispose individuals to chronic lung diseases. Changes in microbial diversity associated with asthma, cystic fibrosis, COPD, have been shown. However, limited information is available on lung microbial dysbiosis in TBS induced COPD patients and almost no information on lung microbiome of BMS induced COPD subjects is available at present. Hence, with a multi-national team, which includes researchers, clinicians and microbiologist we aim to compare the lung microbiome from induced sputum among BMS exposed women with COPD, BMS exposed women without COPD and healthy non-BMS exposed women (n= 50/group: 2021-early 2022). Molecular microbiological techniques such as high throughput amplicon sequencing of 16S rRNA genes will be used to analyze the data (Fall 2021-Fall 2022). We will initiate two-year continuous collaborative work between Sweden, India and Germany (2021-2022) with the aim of developing joint long-term research network and project. Exponering för biomassrök orsakar utvecklande av kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL) och drabbar fler människor globalt jämfört med tobaksröksexponering. Antalet som exponeras för biomassrök i hemmet utgör 3 miljarder att jämföras med 1,1 miljarder rökare globalt. Runt 50% av alla hushåll globalt och 90% av hushållen på landsbygden i låg- och medelinkomstländer använder sig av förbränning av biomassa, som sin huvudsakliga energikälla. Under 2015, orsakades 3,2 miljoner av dödsfallen i världen av KOL och utgjorde 2.6% av de globalt funktionsjusterade förlorade levnadsåren (DALYs). I nuläget utgör KOL den 3:e vanligaste dödsorsaken globalt. Runt 90 % av de som utvecklat KOL bor i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Hittills har KOL-forskning bedrivits i höginkomstländer med fokus på tobaksorsakad KOL. Det är därför påtagligt att kunskap saknas rörande KOL i allmänhet men särskilt biomass-orsakad KOL hos individer i låg- och medelinkomstländer inklusive Indien. Tidigare har man ansett att miljön i lungan är steril. Man har på senare år fått ompröva detta då man med känsligare metodik lyckats kartlägga förekomsten av lungans microorganismer, som anses ha stor betydels för att upprätthålla homeostas. Moderna molekylära mikrobiologiska tekniker (som ”high throughput amplicon sequencing of 16S rRNA genes”) har använts i ett flertal studier för att kartlägga lungans microbiota, vilka påvisat förändringar i microbiomet vid sjukdomar som astma, tobaksinducerad KOL och cystisk fibros (CF). Hos patienter med CF har man följt förändringar i microbiomet i sputum vid antibiotikaanvänding, men endast ett fåtal studier har kartlagt mikrobiomförändringar i sputum hos rökare. Det föreligger inga studier där mikrobiomet i lunga kartlagts hos patienter med biomass-orsakad KOL.Vi anser att ökad kunskap om lungans microbiom i relation till biomass-orsakad KOL utgör en viktig ingångsport för att utveckla behandlingsstrategier för denna stora sjukdomsgrupp i låg- och medelinkomstländer.

Crop production has been decimated by massive political instabilities in the post-conflict-affected areas (PCAA) of Sudan, which caused large numbers of farmers to abandon their lands. Furthermore, climate change, and biotic and abiotic stresses are significantly challenging the cropping ecosystems. Sesame is by far the largest cash crop in Sudan and can therefore play an important role in the recovery of returnees livelihoods in PCAA. However, inadequate research knowledge and lack of breeding efforts hinder the release of high yielding, good quality and highly adapted sesame cultivars in Sudan. The presence of untapped genetic variation in the Sudanese sesame landraces, adapted cultivars, breeding lines and wild relatives can be exploited for the development of superior cultivars. The main objectives of this project are 1) Participatory selection and promotion of superior genotypes; 2) Field-based phenotyping; 3) Genomic characterization and development of molecular markers; 4) Developing superior genotypes; and 5) Capacity development. The outcome of this project is to improve food and nutrition security and restore the lives of the vulnerable farmers in the PCAA. This project opens up opportunities to boost the local economy and contribute to reducing poverty locally and improving the livelihood status of vulnerable groups. Detta projekt syftar till att kombinera deltagardriven forskning, med kapacitetsbyggnad och användning av nya avancerade tekniker, utvecklade under senare år, för att förbättra sesamproduktionen i Sudan.Den politiska situationen i Sudan har under decennier av instabilitet radikalt försämrat möjligheterna till jordbruksproduktion i Sudan, vilket har fått ett stort antal jordbrukare att överge sina mark. Jordbrukarnas möjlighet till produktion har också begränsats av minskad tillgänglighet och ökade priser på insatsprodukter till jordbruket, såsom frön, gödselmedel och bevattning. För närvarande har dock den politiska situationen förbättrats dramatiskt i och med den nya revolutionen 2019. Den nya ”Övergångsregeringen” har redan initierat förhandlingar om permanent fred och stoppat pågående konflikter i hela landet, vilket innebär ett återvändande av flyktingar och internt fördrivna människor. Traditionellt är över 80% av Sudans befolkning jordbrukare, vilket innebär att jordbruk är det enda alternativet som kan säkerställa en hållbar försörjning för den återvändande befolkningen.Sesam anses vara en gröda som kan bidra till att generera inkomster till småskaliga jordbrukare i Sudan. Grödan odlas av småskaliga odlare för försäljning och kan på så sätt bidra till att upprätthålla vissa inkomster viktiga för att täcka levnadskostnader och insatser till övriga grödor som odlas för direkt konsumtion. Sesam är alltså en viktig gröda för att säkra Sudans totala livsmedelssäkerhet.Sudan har imponerande nog lyckats upprätthålla en viss export av sesam trots inbördeskrig, ogynnsamma väderförhållanden, hungersnöd, isolering och handelssanktioner. Avkastningen på sesam odlad i Sudan är dock markant lägre än för sesam odlad i andra länder och är bara en bråkdel av avkastningen på sesam odlad i omkringliggande länder i Afrika söder om Sahara. Uppnådda produktionsökningar i Sudan har helt och hållet berott på en ökning av områden där sesam odlas och inte på förbättrade sorter eller produktionsmöjligheter. På grund av brist på kapacitet och resurser bedrivs inte heller någon avancerad forskning i Sudan kopplad till en förbättring av sesamproduktionen.Det här sökta projektet kommer att bidra med 1) tillgång för småskaliga odlare till förbättrat utsäde av sesam genom en deltagardriven verksamhet; 2) deltagardriven utveckling av hållbara och effektiva metoder för sesamproduktion; 3) kompetensuppbyggnad hos småskaliga odlare genom programdeltagande för att förbättra produktionen och höja produktiviteten, vilket också resulterar i förbättrade inkomster och egenföretagande genom en integrerad utveckling av värdekedjan; 4) informella nätverk som främjar social sammanhållning genom samhällsdialog och leverans av tjänster; 5) möjligheter till engagemang för de mest utsatta grupperna tex kvinnor på landsbygden, barn, äldre och funktionshindrade. Inkluderande, deltagardrivna och konfliktkänsliga verktyg kommer att användas för att mobilisera och involvera dem i den föreslagna verksamheten. 6) ökad sesamproduktion vilket förväntas bidra starkt till att förebygga den allvarliga undernäringen som förekommer bland spädbarn, barn, gravida och ammande kvinnor i områden efter konflikt; 7) att erbjuda återvändande många fördelar, inklusive enkel jordbruksproduktion, låga produktionskostnader, säkerställd kvalitet och minimerade förluster i alla verksamheter efter skörd, samt förbättrade marknadsmöjligheter.Detta forskningsprojekt kommer att genomföras i mycket nära samarbete med aktörer från USA (USDA / SAA / ARS), och Sudan (Plant Genetic Resources Conservation Unit och The Agricultural Research Corporation (ARC)). På detta sätt samarbetar vi både med internationella specialister och med viktiga forskningsinstitutioner i Sudan. Genom upplägget på projektet och valet av samarbetspartners, förväntar vi oss att detta projekt kommer at tbidra till en substantiell förändring för småskaliga odlare i utsatt områden i Sudan.

På grund av brist på kapacitet och resurser bedrivs inte heller någon avancerad forskning i Sudan kopplad till en förbättring av sesamproduktionen.Det här sökta projektet kommer att bidra med 1) tillgång för småskaliga odlare till förbättrat utsäde av sesam genom en deltagardriven verksamhet; 2) deltagardriven utveckling av hållbara och effektiva metoder för sesamproduktion; 3) kompetensuppbyggnad hos småskaliga odlare genom programdeltagande för att förbättra produktionen och höja produktiviteten, vilket också resulterar i förbättrade inkomster och egenföretagande genom en integrerad utveckling av värdekedjan; 4) informella nätverk som främjar social sammanhållning genom samhällsdialog och leverans av tjänster; 5) möjligheter till engagemang för de mest utsatta grupperna tex kvinnor på landsbygden, barn, äldre och funktionshindrade. Inkluderande, deltagardrivna och konfliktkänsliga verktyg kommer att användas för att mobilisera och involvera dem i den föreslagna verksamheten. 6) ökad sesamproduktion vilket förväntas bidra starkt till att förebygga den allvarliga undernäringen som förekommer bland spädbarn, barn, gravida och ammande kvinnor i områden efter konflikt; 7) att erbjuda återvändande många fördelar, inklusive enkel jordbruksproduktion, låga produktionskostnader, säkerställd kvalitet och minimerade förluster i alla verksamheter efter skörd, samt förbättrade marknadsmöjligheter.Detta forskningsprojekt kommer att genomföras i mycket nära samarbete med aktörer från USA (USDA / SAA / ARS), och Sudan (Plant Genetic Resources Conservation Unit och The Agricultural Research Corporation (ARC)). På detta sätt samarbetar vi både med internationella specialister och med viktiga forskningsinstitutioner i Sudan. Genom upplägget på projektet och valet av samarbetspartners, förväntar vi oss att detta projekt kommer at tbidra till en substantiell förändring för småskaliga odlare i utsatt områden i Sudan.

Specifically, a multisectoral network for research will be created and three associated research questions on critical health priorities–which are believed to have the potential to enable synergetic progress across many SDG–swill be explored by teams of researchers from Karolinska Institutet and Makerere University:How can sexual and reproductive health and rights for the most vulnerable be effectively improved?Which strategies are successful in enabling a healthy start for a healthy childhood and minimising the risks for NCDs later in life?What factors characterise the risk for NCDs in low resource settings?The project-activities, which are planned to be implemented during 2021–2022, will utilise a range of state-of-the-art research theories and methods applied to concrete health challenges facing Uganda and the surrounding region. The collaborative research project at hand is seen as a unique cross-cutting initiative that builds on the synergies of the SDGs and addresses critical gaps in their delivery. By putting the health needs of the most vulnerable populations in the centre of our activities, this project is believed to contribute to a just, equitable, tolerant, open and socially inclusive world. Pilotprojekt för tvärsektoriellt arbete för sexuell/reproduktiv hälsa, barnhälsa och icke smittsamma sjukdomar i Uganda: Syftet med det föreslagna samarbetet är att utveckla ett gemensamt forskningsprojekt mellan institutioner i Sverige och Uganda, som undersöker kritiska hälsoutmaningar inom ramen för Agenda 2030 och dess 17 globala hållbarhetsmål. När vi idag omfamnar denna Agenda står vi inför ett antal möjligheter och utmaningar när det kommer till att kunna förbättra livsförutsättningar för alla människor runtom i världen på ett rättvist sätt. En god och jämlik hälsa är en central utgångspunkt och förutsättning för att uppfylla Agenda 2030, och eftersom målen är sammankopplade måste lösningar till rådande utmaningar också bemötas på ett integrerat sätt. Detta kräver att vi hittar nya holistiska sätt att förverkliga Agendan och här står väletablerade samarbeten i centrum för att möjliggöra viktig multisektoriell forskning som kan utveckla nya och innovativa hälsofrämjande verktyg för implementering över sociala, politiska och kommersiella domäner. Genom det förslagna samarbetet kommer ett multisektoriellt nätverk för forskning att skapas av forskargrupper från Karolinska Institutet i Sverige och Makerere Universitet i Uganda. Detta nätverk kommer sedan att utforska tre prioriterade forskningsområden som tros bidra till synergistiska förbättringar över många av hållbarhetsmålen: Förbättra sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter för de mest utsatta – Varje dag dör 800 kvinnor av graviditetsrelaterade komplikationer, de flesta av dem (99%) i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Kvinnor i dessa områden drabbas också oproportionerligt av allvarliga sjukdomar såsom HIV samtidigt som de axlar huvuddelen av arbetsbördan i jordbruket och hushållet. Att arbeta för att utveckla innovationer för kvinnors sexuella och reproduktiva hälsa, med ökad tillgång till kvalificerade barnmorskor i centrum, ses därför som en nyckel till att nå övriga hållbarhetsmål.Barn och ungdomar: möjliggöra en sund start för en hälsosam barndom och minimera riskerna för kroniska sjukdomar senare i livet – Trots stora globala framsteg i barnhälsa, så brottas de flesta resurssvaga områden fortfarande med höga nivåer av dödlighet och sjukdomar hos barn. Detta resulterar i slutändan i en förlust av mänsklig potential och i en överföring av fattigdom och ojämlikhet från en generation till nästa. Svenska barnavårdscentraler har länge varit effektiva i att nå nästan alla barn och skulle därför kunna utgöra grunden för framgång även i Ugandas resurssvaga kontexter. Horisontella investeringar i barns välmående från en tidig start förväntas därför positivt bidra till barns förutsättningar att kunna leva ett långt och hälsosamt liv.Karaktärisera risken för kroniska sjukdomar er i resurssvaga områden – Den stadiga ökningen av kroniska sjukdomar i låginkomstländer kräver betydande förändringar av ländernas hälsosystem där en integration av förebyggande livsstilsåtgärder, tidig upptäckt av högriskfall och långtidsvård av drabbade människor är centrala aspekter. Här strävar vi efter att dra nytta av etablerade samarbeten för att bättre förstå de ledande riskfaktorerna för hjärt-lungsjukdomar i Uganda. Målet är också att förstärka forskningsgruppen lokalt, att bygga kapacitet och öka medvetenheten om kroniska sjukdomar i befolkningen för att maximera kapaciteten för ett hållbart förebyggande av kroniska sjukdomar i landet. Projektaktiviteterna som planeras genomföras under 2021–2022, kommer att utnyttja en rad nutida forskningsteorier och metoder som tillämpas på de hälsoutmaningar som Uganda och den omgivande regionen står inför. Det aktuella samarbetsprojektet ses som ett unikt tvärgående initiativ som bygger på synergier mellan de globala hållbarhetsmålen. Genom att sätta hälsobehoven hos de mest utsatta i centrum för vår verksamhet, tros detta projekt bidra till en rättvis, jämlik, tolerant, öppen och socialt inkluderande värld.

The research agenda aims to contribute with scientific knowledge being an foundation for the future design and testing of innovative models of care for the development of midwifery-led care in the Somali context. The expected output is a research agenda in line with the research ideas to describe the magnitude of life-threatening, abortion-related complications and women’s access to quality PAC and contraceptives in post-conflict Somaliland.A core group of researchers will be jointly responsible for activities in the collaboration plan. The project, starting in January 2021, will run for two years, during which the following activities are planned: build dialogues with the Somali Health Authorities and key UN health agencies, and engage them through workshops on evidence-based findings related to midwifery care; conduct research-agenda workshops and set research agenda/priorities; write joint publications and proposals; and disseminate the research agenda and proposals. The long-term goal of this project is to contribute scientific evidence to scale up the quality of midwifery care to reduce maternal mortality and morbidity in relation to giving birth in Somaliland. Samarbete mellan Sverige och Somaliland för att bygga forskningsprogram för att bygga kapacitet av barnmorskor: Somaliland är politiskt stabilt och säkrare i jämförelse med resten av Somaliregionen (Puntland och Federala staten Somalia) och landet har en fungerande regering som kontinuerligt arbetar för att bygga hållbara hälsovårdssystem för att nå ut till hela sin befolkning. Baserat på den nyligen lanserade Somaliska Barnmorskestrategin initierar vi arbetet med att utveckla forskningssamarbete och att bygga en agenda för barnmorskeforskning som involverar akademin i Sverige och Somaliland. En kärngrupp av forskare kommer att gemensamt vara ansvariga för aktiviteter som skrivs fram i samarbetsplanen. Projektet, som börjar i januari 2021, kommer att löpa i två år, där följande aktiviteter planeras: bygga dialoger med landets hälsoministerie och viktiga FN-organisationer och engagera dem i workshops om evidensbaserade barnmorskvård; genomföra workshop för att fastställa en forskningsagenda med tydliga prioriterade områden; skriva gemensamma forskningsansökningar och publikationer; och sprida samt diskutera forskningsagendan och projektförslag. På global nivå utförs varje år ca 20 miljoner illegala och oftast osäkert utförda aborter. Sju miljoner kvinnor med ofullständig abort behandlas för abortkomplikationer i låg inkomstsammanhang varje år vilket gör osäkra och illegala aborter till en av de vanligaste dödsorsakerna bland kvinnor i fertil ålder. Ofullständig abort innebär att det finns vävnadsrester kvar i livmodern efter en misslyckad abortbehandling eller spontan abort (missfall). Det kan ge upphov till blödningar och infektioner och är ett potentiellt livshotande tillstånd. Postabortbehandling innebär behandling av ofullständig abort och inkluderar vid behov preventivmedelsrådgivning. Otillräcklig tillgång till preventivmedel som resulterar i oplanerade graviditeter, restriktiv tillgång till säker abort och postabortbehandling bidrar till sjuklighet och dödlighet i många låginkomstländer. Somaliland står för en av de högsta dödlighet och sjuklighets talen globalt och det krävs därmed åtgärder för att förbättra kvinnans tillgång till god vård vid komplikation under tidig graviditet. Kunskap om abortrelaterad dödlighet och sjuklighet och vårdkvaliteten inom postabortbehandling är obefintlig i Somaliland där stigma kan vara ett hinder i relation till abort och användning av moderna preventivmedel. Projektet handlar om att stärka kvinnors ställning när det gäller rätten till högkvalitativ postabortbehandling, inklusive preventivmedel, vid livshotande tillstånd i tidig graviditet.Det övergripande forsknings iden är att kartlägga kvinnors sjuklighet och dödlighet i relation till abort, vidare försöka förstå detta på djupet i ett kulturellt perspektiv och undersöka kvinnans bakomliggande historia i relation till abort relaterad komplikation, tillgången till vård och vårdgivares  syn på sin professionella roll inom postabortbehandling. För att Somaliregionen ska kunna möta utmaningar kopplat till mödradödlighet och sjuklighet och uppnå de globala målen för hållbar utveckling (Agenda 2030) är satsningar på barnmorskors kapacitet bevisat kostnadseffektivt. Det långsiktiga målet med detta projekt är att tillhandahålla forskningsresultat som kommer att bidra till utvecklingen av strategier för att öka kvinnornas tillgång till PAC och preventivrådgivning på lägsta effektiva nivå i hälsovårdssystemet.

The research agenda aims to contribute with scientific knowledge being an foundation for the future design and testing of innovative models of care for the development of midwifery-led care in the Somali context. The expected output is a research agenda in line with the research ideas to describe the magnitude of life-threatening, abortion-related complications and women’s access to quality PAC and contraceptives in post-conflict Somaliland.A core group of researchers will be jointly responsible for activities in the collaboration plan. The project, starting in January 2021, will run for two years, during which the following activities are planned: build dialogues with the Somali Health Authorities and key UN health agencies, and engage them through workshops on evidence-based findings related to midwifery care; conduct research-agenda workshops and set research agenda/priorities; write joint publications and proposals; and disseminate the research agenda and proposals. The long-term goal of this project is to contribute scientific evidence to scale up the quality of midwifery care to reduce maternal mortality and morbidity in relation to giving birth in Somaliland. Samarbete mellan Sverige och Somaliland för att bygga forskningsprogram för att bygga kapacitet av barnmorskor: Somaliland är politiskt stabilt och säkrare i jämförelse med resten av Somaliregionen (Puntland och Federala staten Somalia) och landet har en fungerande regering som kontinuerligt arbetar för att bygga hållbara hälsovårdssystem för att nå ut till hela sin befolkning. Baserat på den nyligen lanserade Somaliska Barnmorskestrategin initierar vi arbetet med att utveckla forskningssamarbete och att bygga en agenda för barnmorskeforskning som involverar akademin i Sverige och Somaliland. En kärngrupp av forskare kommer att gemensamt vara ansvariga för aktiviteter som skrivs fram i samarbetsplanen. Projektet, som börjar i januari 2021, kommer att löpa i två år, där följande aktiviteter planeras: bygga dialoger med landets hälsoministerie och viktiga FN-organisationer och engagera dem i workshops om evidensbaserade barnmorskvård; genomföra workshop för att fastställa en forskningsagenda med tydliga prioriterade områden; skriva gemensamma forskningsansökningar och publikationer; och sprida samt diskutera forskningsagendan och projektförslag. På global nivå utförs varje år ca 20 miljoner illegala och oftast osäkert utförda aborter. Sju miljoner kvinnor med ofullständig abort behandlas för abortkomplikationer i låg inkomstsammanhang varje år vilket gör osäkra och illegala aborter till en av de vanligaste dödsorsakerna bland kvinnor i fertil ålder. Ofullständig abort innebär att det finns vävnadsrester kvar i livmodern efter en misslyckad abortbehandling eller spontan abort (missfall). Det kan ge upphov till blödningar och infektioner och är ett potentiellt livshotande tillstånd. Postabortbehandling innebär behandling av ofullständig abort och inkluderar vid behov preventivmedelsrådgivning. Otillräcklig tillgång till preventivmedel som resulterar i oplanerade graviditeter, restriktiv tillgång till säker abort och postabortbehandling bidrar till sjuklighet och dödlighet i många låginkomstländer.

It will contribute explicitly to the contemporary shift in peacebuilding policy towards a more contextual, human-oriented, and inclusive approach that takes into account the lessons learned regarding the long-term processes instigated by peacebuilding interventions. The project, therefore, interrogates the trajectory of peacebuilding through a historical analysis as well as a contemporary one. Our central research problem is: What, given the long trajectory of peacebuilding initiatives and their implementation, does not work and why in Cambodia and Mozambique? We focus on these two cases because there has been a curiously similar development and timing in the two cases. In both sites, we will seek to identify the provenance of the recent tensions (which are jeopardising peace and stability). Particular research questions are theoretically and conceptually driven. They focus on long-term dilemmas of peacebuilding; the dynamics of ex/inclusion; the significance of grounding peace with the population; and, the possibility of adaptive peacebuilding.

Studien bidrar huvudsakligen till den samtida intellektuella strömning som betonar att fredsbyggandepolicy ska vara kontextkänslig, människoorienterad och inkluderande.

Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is the most important tropical root crop in the world. Its starchy roots are a major source of dietary energy for more than 500 million people in subtropics area which is rapidly increasing in population. Several studies have attributed to cassava the ability to grow under hostile and dry conditions; this resilience makes cassava an excellent crop to face climate change, however, its yield variability causes a significant reduction in production yield.Plants as sessile organisms developed mechanisms to rapidly adjust to environmental stresses. One mechanism is the epigenetic regulation (DNA methylation) of molecular reactions to cope with stress. Therefore, growth variability and adaptability partially depend on environment dependent spontaneous DNA methylation events which are maintained in farmers field due to the clonal propagation of the planting material.  In this study we want to investigate how epigenetic influences two fundamental traits affecting yield and consequently the farmers productivity and income: storage root mass and tolerance to Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD). We have been studying cassava at the molecular and physiological levels for 5 years learning that controlling better these traits might have a high potential to directly increase smallholder farmers’ productivity. Cassava är en rotfrukt som har en stor potential att hjälpa mänskligheten att uppnå minst tre av de 17 FN:s målen för hållbar utveckling: ”Ingen fattigdom”, ”Noll hunger” och ”God hälsa och välbefinnande”. Cassava (Manihot esculenta) är en halvbuske inom familjen törelväxter, vars rotknölar är ett av jordens viktigaste baslivsmedel. Dess stärkelsefulla rötter är en viktig källa till energirik föda för mer än 500 miljoner människor i subtropiska områden där befolkningen ökar snabbt. Flera studier har tillskrivit cassava förmågan att växa under fientliga och torra jordförhållanden; denna motståndskraft gör kassava till en utmärkt gröda för att möta klimatförändringar, men dess avkastningsvariabilitet orsakar en betydande minskning av produktionsutbytet.Växter som stationära organismer har utvecklat speciella mekanismer för att snabbt kunna anpassa sig till olika miljöförändringar. En av dessa mekanismer är epigenetisk reglering (DNA-metylering) av genregleringsmekanismer som är nödvändiga för att kunna hantera olika stressituationer. Tillväxtvariabilitet och anpassningsförmåga beror bland annat på miljöberoende spontana DNA-metyleringshändelser som sedan permanentas i jordbruksfält genom klonutbredningen av växtmaterialet.I den här studien vill vi undersöka hur epigenetisk faktorer påverkar två grundläggande egenskaper som påverkar avkastningen och därmed jordbrukarnas produktivitet och inkomst: a) lagringsrotmassa och b) tolerans mot Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) orsakad av ett mosaikvirus. Vi har under fem år studerat cassava på molekylära och fysiologiska nivåer och vi har lärt oss att om vi lyckas bemästra dessa egenskaper kommer den nyvunna kunskapen att ha en stor påverkan i småbrukarnas ökade produktivitet.

The current COVID-19 pandemic illustrates the global ramifications for such health emergencies. The purpose of this research project is to study approaches to, and conditions for, Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) education among health practitioners. Forms of AMR education that can enable health practitioners to support the development of health literacy capabilities among local communities in Zimbabwe are explored as part of the project. Drawing on the theoretical approaches of Health literacy capabilities and experiential learning, the project will use participatory research workshops as the data generating method. As such, the project has the dual purpose of building-capacity among workshop participants and generating data regarding AMR education. Generated data will be analysed using an abductive method, emphasising theory development regarding ABR education from a health literacy capability perspective.The research process centres on two series of participatory research workshops. Combined with continuous support and reflective opportunities, they enable health practitioners to develop their approaches to ABR education and adapt these to their ongoing health practices. The research is expected, drawing on the experiences of the participants before, during and between the workshops, to result in new perspectives on AMR education. Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är att använda en deltagande forskningsprocess för att studera utbildning om antimikrobiell resistens (AMR) bland häslopraktiker för att möjliggöra människors förmåga att förstå, kritiskt utvärdera och omvandla till praktik kunskap om hälsa. Detta innebär konkret, att utforska en förståelse av utbildning kring AMR som främjar lärande bland hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal som arbetar med AMR-utbildning för att stödja människor att bli kapabla till att utveckla sin egen hälsolitteracitet.Antimikrobiell resistens (AMR) har under de senaste fem åren allt oftare kommit att beskrivas som en hållbarhetsutmaning, såväl av FN som av medicinsk- och folkhälsoforskning. Paralleller dras till klimatförändringarna i fråga om AMR:s komplexitet och svårigheterna att finna lösningar. Som hållbarhetsumaning ingår AMR som FN:s tredje hållbarhetsmål med fokus på att långsiktigt säkra ett hälsosamt liv och främja välbefinnande för alla åldrar. Samtidigt som detta mål i olika grad är beroende av de övriga 16 hållbarhetsmålen har Världshälsoorganisationen uppmärksammat att hälsa är också en förutsättning för att uppnå dessa övriga hållbarhetsmål.För att realisera den hållbarhet dessa mål strävar mot, krävs långtgående förändringar av sociala strukturer, tankar, perspektiv och åtgärder. Enligt FN:s Agenda 2030 att kvalitetsutbildning, det fjärde hållbarhetsmålet, möjliggöra dessa förändringar. Som en nyckel till denna sociala omvandling presenteras utbildning av hög kvalitet som bygger på transformativt lärande och därmed realiseringen av målet om hälsosamt liv och välbefinnande.Projektet fokuserar på hur kunskap om AMR skapas tillsammans av hälsopraktiker i Zimbabwe och hur de möjliggör för människor att utveckla värderingar, dispositioner och förmågor att kritiskt utvärdera och agera angående AMR. Valet av Zimbabwe grundar sig på att Världshälsoorganisationen identifierat södra Afrika som den region i störst behov av utökade och mer robusta tillvägagångssätt för att anta AMR som hållbarhetsutmaning. Projektet tar upp frågor om innehållet i lärandet, hur detta lärande inträffar och hur hälsopraktiker kan övervinna implementeringsgapet mellan att veta och göra.Till stor utsträckning är antimikrobiell resistens sammanvävt med de mer traditionella aspekterna av ekologisk-, ekonomisk- och social hållbarhet. Ekologiska utmaningar skapar förändrade förutsättningar för antimikrobiell resistens med ökade risker för infektionssjukdomar, livsmedelssäkerhet samt epidemier och undernäring. Ekonomiska utmaningar, inklusive fattigdom, riskerar att påskynda antimikrobiell resistens och undergräva hållbara hälsosystem. Social hållbarhet handlar om rättvisa i tillgången till antibiotika, men även till vilken grad människors är kapabla att använda sig av hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet.För att samla forskningsmaterial innefattar projektet ett antal workshops som möjliggör för deltagarna att tillsammans skapa kunskap och att förstå, kritiskt utvärdera och omvandla till praktik kunskap om hälsa. Dessa workshops kommer att hållas i två omgångar i Zimbabwe med grupper av hälsopraktiker, varemellan deltagarna kommer att, med stöd från forskarna i projektet, vidareutveckla sin AMR utbildning och stödja människor att bli kapabla att ta sig an AMR utmaningarna.Projektet innefattar fyra arbetspaket, där det första innebär samråd med internationella kollegor för att stärka projektet genom att identifiera relevanta platser och personer i Zimbabwe för att genomföra de workshops som är planerade. Vidare kommer dessa workshops att genomföras som empiriska studier med hälsopraktiker. Därefter kommer det insamlade forskningsmaterialet analyseras och i en slutligt, fjärde arbetspaket. Detta kommer att resultera i publicering av forskningsartiklar samt utformandet av ansökningar för att bygga vidare på projektets resultat.

Projektet tar upp frågor om innehållet i lärandet, hur detta lärande inträffar och hur hälsopraktiker kan övervinna implementeringsgapet mellan att veta och göra.Till stor utsträckning är antimikrobiell resistens sammanvävt med de mer traditionella aspekterna av ekologisk-, ekonomisk- och social hållbarhet. Ekologiska utmaningar skapar förändrade förutsättningar för antimikrobiell resistens med ökade risker för infektionssjukdomar, livsmedelssäkerhet samt epidemier och undernäring. Ekonomiska utmaningar, inklusive fattigdom, riskerar att påskynda antimikrobiell resistens och undergräva hållbara hälsosystem. Social hållbarhet handlar om rättvisa i tillgången till antibiotika, men även till vilken grad människors är kapabla att använda sig av hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet.För att samla forskningsmaterial innefattar projektet ett antal workshops som möjliggör för deltagarna att tillsammans skapa kunskap och att förstå, kritiskt utvärdera och omvandla till praktik kunskap om hälsa. Dessa workshops kommer att hållas i två omgångar i Zimbabwe med grupper av hälsopraktiker, varemellan deltagarna kommer att, med stöd från forskarna i projektet, vidareutveckla sin AMR utbildning och stödja människor att bli kapabla att ta sig an AMR utmaningarna.Projektet innefattar fyra arbetspaket, där det första innebär samråd med internationella kollegor för att stärka projektet genom att identifiera relevanta platser och personer i Zimbabwe för att genomföra de workshops som är planerade. Vidare kommer dessa workshops att genomföras som empiriska studier med hälsopraktiker. Därefter kommer det insamlade forskningsmaterialet analyseras och i en slutligt, fjärde arbetspaket. Detta kommer att resultera i publicering av forskningsartiklar samt utformandet av ansökningar för att bygga vidare på projektets resultat.

Complex synthesis is developed in collaboration with research teams in South Africa (University of Cape Town) and India (Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi). The antimalarial properties will be tested on Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites in collaboration with researchers at the University of Cape Town. Malaria är en mycket spridd sjukdom som särskilt drabbar utvecklingsländer och där orsakar samhälleliga skador som försvårar ländernas utveckling. Situationen är särskilt allvarlig för afrikanska länder söder om Sahara. Även om mycket stora framsteg har gjorts vad gäller förebyggande och behandling av malaria, finns det ett stort behov av kontinuerlig utveckling av nya läkemedel för behandling av denna sjukdom. Anledningen är att malariaparasiter relativt snabbt utvecklar resistens mot läkemedel. I detta forskningsprojekt undersöks möjligheten att metallkomplex kan hämma malaria, med syftet att sådana metallkomplex skall kunna användas som läkemedel. De metallkomplex som framställs innehåller kända eller postulerade aktiva fragment från etablerade läkemedel, och inkorporeringen av dessa fragment i metallkomplex förväntas motverka resistens på samma gång som fragmenten ger bibehållen terapeutisk effekt. Konceptet har redan visats giltigt för en järnförening som har genomgått kliniska studier, och komplex utvecklade inom detta forskningsprojekt har visat antimalaria-egenskaper. Forskningen är av preklinisk natur och syftar till att utveckla aktiva substanser som kan utgöra grund för framtida läkemedelsutveckling.

Hälften av världens människor och ca 90% av alla lantliga hushåll i låg- och medelinkomstländer lagar mat och värmer upp sina hem med biobränsle (tex. ved, träkol, torkad dynga, avfall från grödor) på öppna eldar eller traditionella spisar. Det leder till höga nivåer av luftföroreningar inomhus och utomhus såsom partiklar och gasformiga ämnen som skadar hälsan och miljön. Enligt WHO dör 3.8 miljoner per år pga. exponering för rök vid matlagning och det är globalt sett den tredje ledande riskfaktorn för sjukdom, som tex lunginflammation, kronisk obstruktiv lungsjukdom, hjärtsjukdom, stroke och lungcancer. Enligt Världsbanken bor 80% av befolkningen i Etiopien på landsbygden och behovet av bränsle ökar skogsavverkning och ökar markerosion, vattenföroreningar och minskar bördighet och mångfald, men påverkar även klimatet med ökade utsläpp av koldioxid.I tidigare projekt där man enbart bytt ut spisar i hushållen har man sett att upp till 50% av hushållen återgår till de traditionella spisarna inom 2 år. Det är därför viktigt att ta reda på hushållens preferenser och beteende kring matlagning för att förstå hur man bäst anpassar ny teknik för matlagning så att hushållen accepterar förändringar på lång sikt och det är framförallt kvinnorna som står i fokus för sådana studier, då de lagar maten och sköter hushållet. Det är Studier har också visat att inomhusluften har höga halter av partiklar även efter att man bytt ut spisar och därför är det viktigt att man även utför förändringar av byggnaden där köket finns och att man förbättrar ventilationen.Med nätverket SHAPE (Sustainable reduction of Household Air Pollution in Ethiopia) vill vi skapa ett tvärvetenskapligt samarbete mellan universitet i Etiopien och Sverige, där Addis Ababa universitet, Chalmers tekniska högskola, Göteborgs universitet och Örebro universitet ingår.

Förväntade klimatförändringar kommer sannolikt att leda till en minskning av den tropiska marina fiskproduktionen och biomassan och till en ökning vid högre breddgrader med ett parallellt mönster i maximal fiskefångstpotential. De starkaste effekterna av denna förändring på människor, genom förändrad mängd och sammansättning av fiskefångst, kommer att återfinnas i Afrika, Sydostasien och små önationer under utveckling (Small Island Developing States, SIDS). Dessa regioner är mycket starkt beroende av fisk och även mycket sårbara för undernäring av mikronäringsämnen.  Det finns ett stort behov av ny kunskap för att klimatsäkra flödet av näring från småskaligt fiske i Stillahavsregionen och Afrika. Projektet kommer att möjliggöra ett strukturerat samarbete mellan SLU och WorldFish om effekter av klimatförändringar på olika vattenmiljöer som kan innebära ett förändrat näringsbidrag från småskaligt fiske inom havs-, kust- och sötvattensfiske till befolkningen i dessa länder.

The inital focus will be on fisheries in Africa and the Pacific and will result in long-term joint research in and on topics relevant to low income countries and lower middle income countries.Specifically the project will explore six climate change and fisheries related topics topics relevant for nutritional outcomes in low income countries and lower middle income countries: 1) Importance of habitats for fisheries production; 2) Change in catch composition / production high due to climate driven change in habitats; 3) Range expansion / species shifts; 4) Local ecological knowledge vs scientific knowledge (comparative); 5) Sustainable management measures vs. livelihoods; 6) Change in monsoon season - effects on fish and fisheries;The collaboration will be strengthened by 2 Workshops including field-visits that will focus on interaction with local fishing communities and ensure proper input and relevance of the 2-3 resulting research proposals that will be submitted 2021/2022 to relevant funding agencies. Globalt levererar fisket viktiga mikronäringsämnen till 4,5 miljarder konsumenter. Förväntade klimatförändringar kommer sannolikt att leda till en minskning av den tropiska marina fiskproduktionen och biomassan och till en ökning vid högre breddgrader med ett parallellt mönster i maximal fiskefångstpotential. De starkaste effekterna av denna förändring på människor, genom förändrad mängd och sammansättning av fiskefångst, kommer att återfinnas i Afrika, Sydostasien och små önationer under utveckling (Small Island Developing States, SIDS). Dessa regioner är mycket starkt beroende av fisk och även mycket sårbara för undernäring av mikronäringsämnen.  Det finns ett stort behov av ny kunskap för att klimatsäkra flödet av näring från småskaligt fiske i Stillahavsregionen och Afrika.

These can be acute or severe malaria and asymptomatic disease. The immunological mechanism(s) underpinning these different fates is unknown. Recent experiments have established that T lymphocytes are critical in shaping the protective immune response. However, they remain unexplored within malaria infections in field settings partly due to the limitations of previous methods. The recent upsurge in sequencing technologies combined with the ability to capture and measure entire sets of expressed genes have enhanced our capability to understand the functional roles of genes in complex biological processes. These techniques, referred to as RNA sequencing (RNAseq) can now be applied to population of cells (bulk-RNAseq) and individual cells (scRNA-seq).Using both techniques we will profile T cells from humans infected by malaria in endemic regions. We will investigate clinical and asymptomatic infections arising from the most virulent species, Plasmodium falciparum, to understand the basis for clinical immunity. To this end we will simultaneously acquire other measurements that are critical in determining response (e.g. antibody profiles) and use an integrated approach to gain a holistic understanding of the complex process. These results will advance our understanding and may motivate rational approaches for designing drugs and vaccines against malaria. På platser med intensiv överföring av malaria leder infektioner av parasiter till karakteristiska kliniska svar hos människor. Dessa kan vara akuta, allvarliga eller asymptomatiska infektioner.

Kliniska och asymptomatiska infektioner som härstammar från den mest virulenta arten, Plasmodium falciparum, kommer att kartläggas för att bättre förstå förloppet till klinisk immunitet. För att uppnå detta kommer vi att studera respons (t.ex. antikroppsprofiler) samt applicera RNA-seq för att på så sätt erhålla en förbättrad helhetsbild för den komplexa processen. Dessa studier avser att förbättra vår förståelse för det immunologiska svaret vid sjukdomsförloppet och har potential att bidra med viktig kunskap för utveckling av framtida läkemedel och vacciner mot malaria.

These can be acute or severe malaria and asymptomatic disease. The immunological mechanism(s) underpinning these different fates is unknown. Recent experiments have established that T lymphocytes are critical in shaping the protective immune response. However, they remain unexplored within malaria infections in field settings partly due to the limitations of previous methods. The recent upsurge in sequencing technologies combined with the ability to capture and measure entire sets of expressed genes have enhanced our capability to understand the functional roles of genes in complex biological processes. These techniques, referred to as RNA sequencing (RNAseq) can now be applied to population of cells (bulk-RNAseq) and individual cells (scRNA-seq).Using both techniques we will profile T cells from humans infected by malaria in endemic regions. We will investigate clinical and asymptomatic infections arising from the most virulent species, Plasmodium falciparum, to understand the basis for clinical immunity. To this end we will simultaneously acquire other measurements that are critical in determining response (e.g. antibody profiles) and use an integrated approach to gain a holistic understanding of the complex process. These results will advance our understanding and may motivate rational approaches for designing drugs and vaccines against malaria.

Coinfection with intestinal helminthic parasites can prevent an efficient TB-protection by suppressing bactericidal functions in macrophages (MQ), triggering progression from latent to active TB disease. Our previous results indicate that nutritional deficiencies in the nitric oxide (NO) and glutathione axis may contribute to poor control of mycobacteria by human MQ. Using a translational approach combining clinical TB studies (Ethiopia) with ex vivo infection experiments we will determine if L-citrulline administration can revert the effect of chronic helminth infection in MQ by switching them from their immunosuppressed regulatory M2 phenotype to a proinflammatory M1 phenotype and simultaneously trigger enhanced NO production, to achieve better host control of mycobacteria. Modalities affecting macrophage activation will be studied in individuals with latent and active TB with/without concurrent helminth infection, before and after deworming. Our research will answer if adjunctive immune boosting therapies that strengthens and activates macrophages can expedite current anti-TB treatment, and whether interventions like deworming could be beneficial on large scale for individuals living in low resource areas. En fjärdedel av världens befolkning är infekterad med Mycobacterium tuberculosis, vilket orsakar 1,5 miljoner dödsfall årligen i lungsjukdomen tuberkulos (TB). Något effektivt vaccin finns inte. Behandling av tuberkulos är besvärlig, innebär en kombination av flera läkemedel i minst 6 månader och har lett till en alarmerande andel av läkemedelsresistenta tuberkelbakterier. Risken att utveckla aktiv tuberkulos ökar genom saminfektion med HIV samt mask. Saminfektion med mask, minskar vårt immunologiska skydd mot TB genom att trycka ned bakterieavdödande funktioner i makrofager (den primära värdcellen för tuberkelbakterier). Våra resultat tyder på att den försämrade kontrollen av tuberkelbakterier beror på en bristande kväveoxidproduktion i lungans makrofager. Maskinfektion minskar också det proinflammatoriska svaret i makrofagerna, gör dem mer antiinflammatoriska och minskar deras förmåga att reglera oxidativ stress. Det faktum att några av de viktigaste läkemedlen mot TB endast har full effekt i samband med aktiva värdcellsmekanismer i makrofager, gör det önskvärt att aktivera och stärka dessa celler. Om immunsvaret hos infekterade individer stärks, kan vi uppnå en synergistisk effekt som påskyndar behandling och minskar risken för läkemedelsresistens som är ett växande hot.Vi föreslår därför tilläggsbehandlingar som aktiverar makrofager och kan fungera tillsammans med befintliga anti-TB kemoterapeutiska läkemedel för att på så sätt effektivisera rådande behandling. Tilläggsbehandlingen innebär i detta fall en kombination av naturliga glutation- och L-arginingenerande substanser som tillsammans ”räddar” makrofager från det mask-inducerade hämmade tillståndet och därigenom leder till en ökad kontroll av tuberkelbakterierna. Forskningen består dels av mekanistiska studier för att förstå värdcellsvaret och kliniska studier i Etiopien där det immunologiska svaret hos mask/TB saminfekterade patienter studeras innan och efter avmaskning så att immuncellstatus och makrofagaktivering kan följas under de olika faserna av behandlingen.Detta är ett translationellt globalhälsorelaterat forskningsprojekt som länkar samman infektionsimmunologi från kliniska studier med grundläggande forskning för att hitta terapeutiska lösningar som påskyndar behandling av TB och skyddar dem i riskzonen för att utveckla aktiv sjukdom. TB är smittsamt och associerat med en avsevärd dödlighet i utsatta befolkningsgrupper i fattiga områden i världen. Avmaskning är en relativt enkel och billig åtgärd i fattiga områden där maskinfektion och TB är mycket utbrett. Om avmaskning visas gynnsamt kan detta utföras storskaligt för att förhindra TB i högendemiska områden samt för att förbättra den allmänna hälsostatusen eftersom maskinfektion har korrelerats till ett försämrat allmäntillstånd hos skolbarn.

During this two-year project the network will collaboratively develop and implement a “Training of Trainers” (ToT) model, as a strategy to develop institutional and research capacity in EBPH. First social network theory and analysis (SNTA) will be used to assess a Swedish/Somali ToT-course conducted in 2016-2018 by the Somali-Swedish Research Cooperation for Health (SSRCH). The knowledge from this will inform the design of the second ToT course with faculty staff (gender equity) from all involved Somali universities (2021-2022). A concrete outcome will be the establishment of three new research groups that have refined research project plans. Later likely more groups will be formed.Ultimately this will contribute to improved health of the Somali population and achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s), especially SDG 3 – Good health and wellbeing, SDG 4 - Quality education, and SDG 16 – Peace, justice and strong institutions. Detta nätverk kallat ’SomSwe’ har sina rötter i början av 1980-talet då somaliska och svenska universitet samarbetade inom Sida-finansierade forskningsprojekt, bland annat inom hälsoområdet. Detta avbröts av inbördeskriget i början av 1990-talet. Ett initiativ togs 2014 för att bygga vidare på det tidigare samarbetet och därmed bidra till nationella återuppbyggnad i Somalia. Ett konsortium bildades - det somalisk-svenska forskningssamarbetet för hälsa (SSRCH) - och denna ansökan ligger i linje med det handlingsprogram för kapacitetsuppbyggnad inom hälsoforskning som konsortiet utvecklat.Det somaliska hälsosystemet har allvarliga utmaningar. Kulturella normer, geografiska avstånd och säkerhetsproblem, är några hinder som finns för att använda de hälsostrukturer som är på plats, om än bristfälliga. Detta medför att många insatser med vetenskapligt påvisad effekt inte når befolkningen. Några exempel är begränsad efterfrågan på vaccinationer och förlossningsvård, samt otillräcklig behandling av smittsamma sjukdomar. Forskning kring hälsoinsatser i den somaliska kontexten kan ge ökad kunskap som kan bistå beslutsfattare och öka hälso- och sjukvårdssystemets möjlighet att framgångsrikt genomföra beslutade insatser. I dagsläget är insikten om vad forskning kan bidra med ofta begränsad.Under de senaste decennierna har vikten av evidensbaserad hälso- och sjukvård, så även inom folkhälsoområdet – uppmärksammats och gett framsteg i många höginkomstländer, men ännu inte fått samma genomslag i flertalet låg- och medelinkomstländer, inklusive Somalia. Evidensbaserad folkhälsovetenskap inkluderar tillgång till bättre information om vilka insatser som fungerar, en större sannolikhet för att framgångsrika program genomförs, ökad produktivitet i arbetskraften och effektivare användning av offentliga och privata resurser.Syftet med det föreslagna ’SomSwe-projektet är att upprätta ett nätverk av somaliska och svenska akademiker för att utveckla institutionell kapacitet och vad gäller forskning inom folkhälsovetenskap, inklusive att stärka rollen av evidensbaserad kunskap inom det somaliska hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet. Nätverket består av seniora akademiker från somaliska och svenska universitet, en grupp juniora forskare från båda länderna och en rådgivande grupp med representanter från sju somaliska universitet, fem svenska universitet, samt somalisk diaspora.Under detta två-åriga projekt kommer ’SomSwe” nätverket att gemensamt utveckla och implementera en ”Training of Trainers” (ToT) modell riktat till lärare/forskare vid somaliska universitet (med jämn fördelning mellan kvinnor och män), som en strategi att utveckla kapacitet institutionellt och inom forskning vad gäller evidensbaserad folkhälsovetenskap. Först kommer social nätverksanalysteori att användas för att utvärdera en ToT-kurs om genomfördes 2016-2018 inom det svenskt-somaliskt samarbete som nämnts ovan. Utfallet kommer att nyttjas för att utveckla den nu planerade ToT-kursen med samma målgrupp som den tidigare och som planeras att genomföras 2021-2022. Målet är att tre nya forskargrupper formeras och utvecklar sina forskningsplaner under kursens gång, men på sikt kommer sannolikt fler forskargrupper att formeras.Inom projektet kommer både somaliska och svenska forskare att utveckla sin kompetens inom social nätverksanalysteori, samt evidensbaserad folkhälsovetenskap inklusive forskningsmetoder för att ta fram denna kunskap. Detta kommer att bidra till att stärka både somalisk och svensk akademin samt det Somaliska hälsosystemet. Projektet kommer också att bidra till Somalias resa för att uppnå FN:s globala hållbarhetsmål.

During this two-year project the network will collaboratively develop and implement a “Training of Trainers” (ToT) model, as a strategy to develop institutional and research capacity in EBPH. First social network theory and analysis (SNTA) will be used to assess a Swedish/Somali ToT-course conducted in 2016-2018 by the Somali-Swedish Research Cooperation for Health (SSRCH). The knowledge from this will inform the design of the second ToT course with faculty staff (gender equity) from all involved Somali universities (2021-2022). A concrete outcome will be the establishment of three new research groups that have refined research project plans. Later likely more groups will be formed.Ultimately this will contribute to improved health of the Somali population and achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s), especially SDG 3 – Good health and wellbeing, SDG 4 - Quality education, and SDG 16 – Peace, justice and strong institutions. Detta nätverk kallat ’SomSwe’ har sina rötter i början av 1980-talet då somaliska och svenska universitet samarbetade inom Sida-finansierade forskningsprojekt, bland annat inom hälsoområdet. Detta avbröts av inbördeskriget i början av 1990-talet. Ett initiativ togs 2014 för att bygga vidare på det tidigare samarbetet och därmed bidra till nationella återuppbyggnad i Somalia. Ett konsortium bildades - det somalisk-svenska forskningssamarbetet för hälsa (SSRCH) - och denna ansökan ligger i linje med det handlingsprogram för kapacitetsuppbyggnad inom hälsoforskning som konsortiet utvecklat.Det somaliska hälsosystemet har allvarliga utmaningar. Kulturella normer, geografiska avstånd och säkerhetsproblem, är några hinder som finns för att använda de hälsostrukturer som är på plats, om än bristfälliga. Detta medför att många insatser med vetenskapligt påvisad effekt inte når befolkningen. Några exempel är begränsad efterfrågan på vaccinationer och förlossningsvård, samt otillräcklig behandling av smittsamma sjukdomar. Forskning kring hälsoinsatser i den somaliska kontexten kan ge ökad kunskap som kan bistå beslutsfattare och öka hälso- och sjukvårdssystemets möjlighet att framgångsrikt genomföra beslutade insatser. I dagsläget är insikten om vad forskning kan bidra med ofta begränsad.Under de senaste decennierna har vikten av evidensbaserad hälso- och sjukvård, så även inom folkhälsoområdet – uppmärksammats och gett framsteg i många höginkomstländer, men ännu inte fått samma genomslag i flertalet låg- och medelinkomstländer, inklusive Somalia. Evidensbaserad folkhälsovetenskap inkluderar tillgång till bättre information om vilka insatser som fungerar, en större sannolikhet för att framgångsrika program genomförs, ökad produktivitet i arbetskraften och effektivare användning av offentliga och privata resurser.Syftet med det föreslagna ’SomSwe-projektet är att upprätta ett nätverk av somaliska och svenska akademiker för att utveckla institutionell kapacitet och vad gäller forskning inom folkhälsovetenskap, inklusive att stärka rollen av evidensbaserad kunskap inom det somaliska hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet. Nätverket består av seniora akademiker från somaliska och svenska universitet, en grupp juniora forskare från båda länderna och en rådgivande grupp med representanter från sju somaliska universitet, fem svenska universitet, samt somalisk diaspora.Under detta två-åriga projekt kommer ’SomSwe” nätverket att gemensamt utveckla och implementera en ”Training of Trainers” (ToT) modell riktat till lärare/forskare vid somaliska universitet (med jämn fördelning mellan kvinnor och män), som en strategi att utveckla kapacitet institutionellt och inom forskning vad gäller evidensbaserad folkhälsovetenskap. Först kommer social nätverksanalysteori att användas för att utvärdera en ToT-kurs om genomfördes 2016-2018 inom det svenskt-somaliskt samarbete som nämnts ovan. Utfallet kommer att nyttjas för att utveckla den nu planerade ToT-kursen med samma målgrupp som den tidigare och som planeras att genomföras 2021-2022. Målet är att tre nya forskargrupper formeras och utvecklar sina forskningsplaner under kursens gång, men på sikt kommer sannolikt fler forskargrupper att formeras.Inom projektet kommer både somaliska och svenska forskare att utveckla sin kompetens inom social nätverksanalysteori, samt evidensbaserad folkhälsovetenskap inklusive forskningsmetoder för att ta fram denna kunskap. Detta kommer att bidra till att stärka både somalisk och svensk akademin samt det Somaliska hälsosystemet. Projektet kommer också att bidra till Somalias resa för att uppnå FN:s globala hållbarhetsmål.

Improving crop yields under dry conditions will be crucial for food security as dry environments and seasons become even drier with climate change. Different species and cultivars show a large variation in water use and drought tolerance. Our current understanding of the underlying genetic variation is limited. Traditionally, selection for higher yields have often resulted in increased water use. However, recent breeding efforts demonstrate that water economy and drought tolerance can be improved without adverse effects on yield. We will study the variation in traits related to water use and drought tolerance among Rwandan landraces of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and identify underlying genetic components. The aim is to expand our basic understanding of the genetic control of water economy and drought tolerance in higher plants and eventually use this information for breeding more productive crops for East African conditions. Field experiments will be combined with molecular genetic methods to study a wide range of traits related to water economy and drought tolerance. Bean is the main source of protein in Rwanda. Higher yields in dry periods would significantly improve the food security of local farmers. The project is carried out in collaboration with the University of Rwanda and Rwanda Agriculture and Animal Resources Development Board, ensuring capacity building in modern crop breeding. All växtodling är beroende av vatten och globalt sett är vattentillgång en av de absolut mest begränsande faktorerna för jordbruksproduktion. Växter förlorar vatten till atmosfären då klyvöppningarna öppnas för att släppa in koldioxid till fotosyntesen. Graden av öppning är en avvägning mellan hur mycket vatten växten har råd att förlora och hur mycket koldioxid fotosyntesen använder. Olika arter och sorter är olika bra på att hushålla med vatten och reagerar på olika sätt när de utsätts för torka. Dessa egenskaper har man dock inte tagit särskilt mycket hänsyn till i modern växtförädling. Man har istället prioriterat hög avkastning och förbättring av andra egenskaper. Förädling för ökad skörd har istället snarare resulterat i att grödor använder mer och mer vatten. Vi vet att genetisk variation ligger bakom mycket av skillnaderna i växters vattenanvändning och torktålighet men det finns inte mycket kunskap om exakt hur dessa egenskaper kontrolleras och vilka gener som är inblandade. Här finns alltså en stor potential för dels en ökad kunskap om en central del av alla växters liv och dels en stor förbättring av produktiviteten hos dagens grödor under torra förhållanden. Ett exempel på det senare är att man relativt nyligen förädlat vetesorter med fokus på förbättrad vattenhushållning, vilket lett till avsevärt bättre avkastning under torra perioder. I det här projektet vill vi undersöka vilka skillnader som finns i vattenanvändning och torktålighet bland olika bönsorter och hur dessa egenskaper styrs genetiskt. Vi kommer att använda oss av traditionella bönsorter från Rwanda. Trots att Rwanda är ett litet land, till ytan mindre än Småland, finns en stor variation i odlingsförhållanden mellan olika regioner och därmed en stor odlad mångfald. Efter att ha kartlagt variationen väljer vi ut åtta olika sorter som skiljer sig med avseende på vattenanvändning och torktålighet. Dessa sorter korsas med varandra enligt ett särskilt schema för att skapa en population som gör det möjligt att kartlägga den genetiska regleringen av vattenanvändning och torktålighet. Målet är att identifiera genetiska varianter som ger en bättre avkastning under torra förhållanden och kan användas i förädlingsarbete. Bönor odlas i stor utsträckning i självförsörjningsjordbruk i Rwanda och andra afrikanska länder och är den viktigaste källan till protein för de allra flesta rwandier. Bönor som ger säkrare avkastning under torra förhållanden skulle direkt bidra till att öka livsmedelssäkerheten och förbättra fattiga jordbrukares ekonomi i Rwanda. Även om resultaten först kommer att användas i Rwanda så har de betydelse för en stor del av Östafrika. Dessutom kommer informationen om den genetiska regleringen av växters vattenekonomi som genereras i projektet att föra kunskapsläget framåt mer generellt och kunna användas för klimatsäkring av grödor i övriga delar av världen. Projektet kommer att genomföras i samarbete mellan forskare vid Göteborgs universitet och University of Rwanda. Det innebär en fortsättning på och utökning av ett redan etablerat samarbete mellan dessa två universitet. Dessutom kommer växtförädlare från Rwandas jordbruksmyndighet med specialistkunskaper inom förädling av bönor att ha en aktiv roll i projektet. Växtförädlingen i Rwanda använder sig idag traditionella tekniker och detta projekt innebär en bra möjlighet att introducera moderna molekylärgenetiska metoder i landets växtförädlingsverksamhet.

Tillgången till hälsovård av god kvalitet är i stort problematisk i Somalia på grund av långvarigt krig och politisk instabilitet. Omkring 26% av Somalias befolkning lever ett nomadliv, och denna betydande grupp om cirka 4 miljoner personer tros ha än sämre tillgång till modern hälsovård och hälsofrämjande åtgärder än övriga befolkningen. Den hälsovård som finns är främst anpassad till stabila populationer och är normalt ej anpassad för nomadernas livsstil, vare sig för barn- och mödravård, kroniska sjukdomar eller för infektioner och pandemier. Kunskapen om behovet av hälsovård, begränsningar i tillgång till hälsovård samt potentiella förbättringsåtgärder är mycket begränsad i denna generellt svårstuderade population. Orsakerna till kunskapsbristen beror återigen på en långvarig instabilitet i landet men eventuellt också på ett begränsat intresse för denna marginaliserade befolkningsgrupp. Detta projekt syftar till att bygga upp ett nätverk av kunniga forskare i Somalia, Kenya och Sverige för att tillsammans med representanter för nomadpopulationen och hälsoministeriet bygga upp en grundläggande kunskapsbank till gagn för Somalia samt för att kunna utveckla en väl underbyggd forskningsansökan att färdigställas vid slutet av projektet.

The intensified use of impregnated bednets has led to a substantial reduction of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes and thereby also of malaria cases with a 50% reduction of mortality since 2000. However, elimination of malaria has proven difficult due to other mosquito species sustaining the transmission of malaria parasites. In this project, we want to evaluate the attractiveness of two different high-efficiency traps by estimating the distance from where host-seeking mosquitoes are coming to the trap. This knowledge will feed in to current models on how many traps are needed in a village for effective intervention. We have recently shown that the local environment gives each mosquito a unique bacteria profile, so that the microbiota of an insect works as a proxy for where it has been. With this information we are able to clearly distinguish spatial dynamics in populations of malaria mosquitoes using a very small number of insects. The estimation of how the mosquitoes travel will give suggestions of how to spatially plan locations of buildings in relation to mosquito hotspots so the number of malaria mosquitoes a person encounters is radically diminished. We will therefore also follow the population dynamics of malaria mosquitoes over a period of 2 years with the aim to understand flight patterns at different times of the year. Malaria är en parasitsjukdom som framförallt drabbar fattiga människor i Afrika söder om Sahara. Till största delen är det barn i åldrarna 1-5 som dör av sjukdomen som sprids av malariamyggor. Malaria har minskat kraftigt från millenieskiftet, från 2 döda dagisbarn per minut till 1 dagisbarn per minut. En stor anledning till detta är att man har delat ut myggnät impregnerade med myggdödande medel. Detta har kraftigt minskat de myggor som biter på natten inomhus, men på grund av andra myggarter som biter inomhus och/eller på dagen, så kvarstår malaria som ett allvarligt problem. För att kunna komma åt dessa myggor riktar vi in oss på de två tillvägagångssätt som vi bedömer har störst chans i närtid att påverka den malaria som fortfarande förekommer: fysisk planering och doftfällor. Genom fysisk planering av en by kan man se till att avstånden från till exempel ett risfält eller en mygglockande växt är så långt ifrån bosättningen att myggorna inte flyger dit. För de myggor som ändå kommer fram till en bosättning använder vi doftfällor och en del i denna studie är att i fältförsök utvärdera hur bra två olika doftfällor är på att attrahera honmyggor.Uppskattningar av myggornas utbredning och spridning har tidigare krävt att man märker tusentals myggor med radioaktiva ämnen eller med fluorescerande färg innan de släpps iväg och att man sedan försöker fånga in dem igen. Ofta återfinner man då bara en handfull myggor. Vi har nyligen visat att vi genom att analysera bakterieflora hos ett fåtal myggor får mycket precisa uppskattningar om var myggorna kommer ifrån. Bakterierna på och i myggorna avslöjar deras liv fram till infångandet, och vi kan med mycket hög sannolikhet avgöra varifrån en mygga kommer baserat enbart på dess bakterieflora. Vi ska för första gången implementera metoden i ett projekt som handlar om att komma åt de myggor som biter utomhus. Genom att i två etiopiska byar följa myggornas rörelser under två år med hjälp av bakterieanalys av myggorna kommer vi få en bra uppfattning om hur man framöver ska planera bosättningar i förhållande till myggrika platser i närheten av bosättningarna. Utöver detta ska vi i försök med två olika doftfällor undersöka olika dofters attraktionskraft. Vi kommer med vår metod att kunna se vilka myggor som anländer till fällan och varifrån de kommer. Utifrån kunskapen om hur långt myggorna flyger kan man beräkna hur många fällor som behövs för att få bort malarian från byarna.

För att kunna komma åt dessa myggor riktar vi in oss på de två tillvägagångssätt som vi bedömer har störst chans i närtid att påverka den malaria som fortfarande förekommer: fysisk planering och doftfällor. Genom fysisk planering av en by kan man se till att avstånden från till exempel ett risfält eller en mygglockande växt är så långt ifrån bosättningen att myggorna inte flyger dit. För de myggor som ändå kommer fram till en bosättning använder vi doftfällor och en del i denna studie är att i fältförsök utvärdera hur bra två olika doftfällor är på att attrahera honmyggor.Uppskattningar av myggornas utbredning och spridning har tidigare krävt att man märker tusentals myggor med radioaktiva ämnen eller med fluorescerande färg innan de släpps iväg och att man sedan försöker fånga in dem igen. Ofta återfinner man då bara en handfull myggor. Vi har nyligen visat att vi genom att analysera bakterieflora hos ett fåtal myggor får mycket precisa uppskattningar om var myggorna kommer ifrån. Bakterierna på och i myggorna avslöjar deras liv fram till infångandet, och vi kan med mycket hög sannolikhet avgöra varifrån en mygga kommer baserat enbart på dess bakterieflora. Vi ska för första gången implementera metoden i ett projekt som handlar om att komma åt de myggor som biter utomhus. Genom att i två etiopiska byar följa myggornas rörelser under två år med hjälp av bakterieanalys av myggorna kommer vi få en bra uppfattning om hur man framöver ska planera bosättningar i förhållande till myggrika platser i närheten av bosättningarna. Utöver detta ska vi i försök med två olika doftfällor undersöka olika dofters attraktionskraft. Vi kommer med vår metod att kunna se vilka myggor som anländer till fällan och varifrån de kommer. Utifrån kunskapen om hur långt myggorna flyger kan man beräkna hur många fällor som behövs för att få bort malarian från byarna.

The intensified use of impregnated bednets has led to a substantial reduction of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes and thereby also of malaria cases with a 50% reduction of mortality since 2000. However, elimination of malaria has proven difficult due to other mosquito species sustaining the transmission of malaria parasites. In this project, we want to evaluate the attractiveness of two different high-efficiency traps by estimating the distance from where host-seeking mosquitoes are coming to the trap. This knowledge will feed in to current models on how many traps are needed in a village for effective intervention. We have recently shown that the local environment gives each mosquito a unique bacteria profile, so that the microbiota of an insect works as a proxy for where it has been. With this information we are able to clearly distinguish spatial dynamics in populations of malaria mosquitoes using a very small number of insects. The estimation of how the mosquitoes travel will give suggestions of how to spatially plan locations of buildings in relation to mosquito hotspots so the number of malaria mosquitoes a person encounters is radically diminished. We will therefore also follow the population dynamics of malaria mosquitoes over a period of 2 years with the aim to understand flight patterns at different times of the year.

While African policy documents highlight women’s land tenure insecurity as a key development problem, land reforms through regularisation are usually based on the implicit assumption is that land tenure is patrilineal. Furthermore, when customary land rights are formalised through ‘community delimitations’, in spite of non-discriminatory intentions, there is a tendency to formalisation bringing about a strengthening of male roles and authorities, in both patrilineal and matrilineal communities. In a context of a community-based land tenure reform in Nampula Province in Northern Mozambique, we aim to carry out field-based studies in communities where traditional tenure arrangements have been matrilineal. We will focus on four main issues: i) titling processes and women’s roles, ii) land rights and gendered responsibilities, iii) access to and control of land, and iv) agricultural intensification and subsistence. The research approach is qualitative, based on a comparative case study of three delimited communities. So far, there are no systematic research findings reported in the scholarly literature on this particular topic. Idag lever majoriteten av Afrikas fattiga människor på landsbygden och är beroende av tillgången på land för sin jordbruksproduktion och försörjning, vilket gör säkra markrättigheter till en mycket central fråga. Säkra rättigheter till land, dvs att individer med säkerhet vet vilka resurser de kontrollerar och på vilket sätt de kan användas, är avgörande för människors försörjning. För att skydda landsbygdsbefolkningens behov har flera afrikanska länder infört en ny lagstiftning så att lokalsamhällen tilldelats formella rättigheter till sina markområden, vanligen i form av individuella rättigheter.År 1997 införde Moçambique en ny landlag som hade anpassats till principerna för en lokalt baserad landadministration. Den nya lagen säger att markrättigheterna ska formaliseras på lokalsamhällesnivå, som en kollektiv enhet, och att ansvaret att fördela individuella markrättigheter till hushållen decentraliserats till lokalsamhället självt, vilket vanligen sker enligt lokala normer och traditioner. Flera studier har visat att när markrättigheter formaliseras enligt lokala traditioner tenderar detta leda till att marken registreras på hushållets överhuvud, som vanligen är mannen. Många studier pekar på att kvinnors landrättigheter försvagas genom registrering, varför kvinnors osäkra markrättigheter lyfts fram som ett centralt utvecklingsproblem i afrikanska policydokument. Många länders landreformer försöker införa system för att säkra kvinnors rätt till mark. Dock utgår dessa reformer vanligen ifrån att de system inom vilka individer får tillgång till mark är vad som kallas patrilinjära, d.v.s. att rätten till marken överförs från far till son. Men i norra Moçambique finns stora områden där marken traditionellt överförs mellan generationerna genom moderns familjelinje, s.k. matrilinjära system.Starkt kopplat till frågan om ett individuellt ägande eller individuell kontroll över mark som formaliserats genom ett certifikat, är idén om att detta certifikat kan användas som säkerhet för att ta lån så att bonden kan använda detta för att göra investeringar i sin mark och i insatsvaror för att öka avkastningen i sitt jordbruk, vilket förväntas leda till ökad produktion för både förbättrad livsmedelssäkerhet och för att kunna sälja sitt överskott på marknaden och tjäna inkomst. Detta är centralt för många länders politik att minska fattigdomen och undernäringen på landsbygden.I vårt projekt undersöker vi hur nya initiativ för att formalisera individuella markrättigheter, i områden där man samtidigt försöker öka intensifieringen av marknyttjandet för att öka avkastningen i jordbruket, påverkar de traditionellt baserade markägosystemen inom matrilinjära samhällen. Vad händer med de markrättigheter kvinnor traditionellt fått tillgång till genom sina mödrar i samband med att markrättigheterna formaliseras på individuell eller hushållsnivå? Kommer marken successivt att formaliseras i männens namn, eller i man och hustrus namn, vilket skulle innebära en överföring av rättigheter från kvinnors till mäns familjelinjer?     För att undersöka dessa komplexa frågor har vi valt ut tre lokalsamhällen som kännetecknas av olika förutsättningar vad gäller formalisering av individuella markrättigheter. Vi ska samla in information i huvudsak genom intervjuer med olika aktörer i dessa lokalsamhällen. Dels med administrativ personal på olika nivåer i samhället, och dels med olika aktörer på lokal nivå: lokalsamhällets invånare och ledare, likaväl som med organisationer som är delaktiga i genomförandet av reformerna. Vår studie innebär även delaktighet av lokala aktörer i vandringar och karteringar som görs i områdena. En viktig aspekt av vårt upplägg av studien är att återkommande återkoppla till olika aktörer som är med i studien för att informera och ge feedback om vad vi kommer fram till. Det är viktigt att resultat från studier av den här typen kan användas och kanske påverka hur utvecklingspolitik genomförs i praktiken.

How these differences influence the promotion of women, peace and security (WPS) matters. Yet, previous research treats the body as a unitary actor and does not differentiate between permanent (P5) and non-permanent elected (E10) states. Or, it focuses on women´s participation, protection and  gender mainstreaming, not variation of state behavior inside the Council. This project asks under what conditions do non-permanent member states impact UNSC policy outcomes on WPS? The purpose is to to build theoretical insight into the causal relationship between key dynamics – power within the UNSC; working processes of the Council; non-permanent state capacities; and politics and external WPS alliances and influences - and the degree to which the UNSC´s WPS work is meaningful in a time of global turbulence. We collect unique empirics about the E10 terms of Ethiopia (2017-2018), Germany (2019-2020), Rwanda (2013-2014), South Africa (2019-2020) and Sweden (2017-2018). We will compare the strategies, capacities and levers used (or not) by these states. We contribute to two development research literatures – UNSC studies and WPS  – and relate to global Sustainable Development Goal 16. The project will deepen understanding of the UNSC as multifarious and draw out new knowledge about the Global South´s opportunities to make the Security Council more inclusive and responsive to women, as well as men. Inte alla länder i FN: s säkerhetsråd (UNC) är desamma. Organet består av fem permanenta medlemmar (P5) och tio valda icke-permanenta medlemsländer (E10). E10-länder som skiljer sig från Belgien och Peru för att väljas i två år till denna mest exklusiva klubbar, även om Kina, Frankrike, Storbritannien, Ryssland och USA alltid kommer att ha sitt säte i rådet och åtnjuta ensamrätten att veto mot sina resolutioner. Eftersom tidigare forskning har tenderat att behandla UNSC som en och inte 15, har vi begränsad vetenskaplig kunskap om förhållandena under vilka E10 påverkar politiska resultat. För forskare och utövare av kvinnor, fred och säkerhet (WPS) förklarar socialvetenskapen inte möjligheterna till förändring från dessa mindre mäktiga länder. Sydafrika, en nuvarande medlem, anser kvinnor i lösningen av konflikter och integrering av jämställdhetsperspektiv som avgörande för sin tid i UNSC. Under 2016 uppgav Sverige, strax innan han tog sitt säte, att det avsåg att bidra till att WPS blev ”kärnverksamhetsrådets verksamhet”. Ändå saknar vi bevis och förklaringar om de strategiska val de kan göra för att förbättra WPS. Dessa saknade delar resulterar i en bild av rådet som är enhetlig och statisk, fixerad på normerna som fastställts av P5 och obestämmer om kapacitet och spakar för att göra FN mer lyhörd för kvinnors och andra säkerhetsbehov runt världen.Detta projekt, Splittra glas: Hur valda medlemmar i FN: s säkerhetsråd kämpar för kvinnor, fred och säkerhet, syftar till att hantera dessa luckor och producera insikter för att stärka WPS i en tid av global turbulens. Vi är motiverade av två inbördes relaterade pussel om de valda icke-permanenta medlemmarna i UNSC och WPS-agendan: 1) dessa staters underteoretiserade beteenden och kapacitet; och 2) bevis och förklaringar för implementeringen av WPS.Vår huvudsakliga forskningsfråga är under vilka förhållanden påverkar icke-permanenta medlemsländer UNSC: s politiska resultat för WPS? Vi föreslår att utforska fall av E10-länder och genomföra kvalitativ forskning, genomföra semistrukturerade intervjuer om resultat om WPS i rådet och villkoren för Etiopien (2017-2018), Tyskland (2019-2020), Rwanda (2013-2014) , Sydafrika (2019-2020) och Sverige (2017-2018). Projektet kan genom att jämföra dessa casese dra slutsatser om hur olika organisationskapaciteter och resurser påverkar sannolikheten för framgångsrik realisering av E10-ambitioner. Detta kommer att skapa större insikt om hur länder från lägre ekonomier, särskilt de som har spelat en viktig roll för att tillhandahålla fredsbevarande trupper till FN: s fredsoperationer eller spelat en betydande roll i regionala konflikter och deras lösning, arbetar vid rådet under WPS-perioden.Projektets varaktighet är tre år (januari 2021 - december 2022). Fältforskning och insamling av data, engagemang med nya forskare från länder med låg inkomst och medelinkomst och offentlig kommunikation kommer att betonas. Projektet är ett samarbete mellan forskare om fred och konflikt, kön och väpnad konflikt och statsvetenskap från University of Pretoria, Sydafrika; Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), Norge och Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning, Uppsala universitet, Sverige.

Home to 1.5 billion people and to 14 of the World’s 15 most polluted cities, its highly populated northern corridor is perennially blanketed with a haze of climate- and health-affecting air pollution. This haze of aerosol and gas pollutants results from many different and poorly constrained incomplete combustion sources, This causes severe effects on both the climate, the food and water supply, as well as the quality of the air people breathe.The overarching purpose of this proposed study is to quantitatively apportion the relative contribution of different emission sources to two of the most disruptive components of this South Asian air pollution:  Black Carbon (BC; soot aerosols) and carbon monoxide (CO; a gas).In collaboration with atmospheric scientists at University of Dhaka, we will advance cutting-edge source-diagnostic dual-isotope fingerprinting on samples of BC and CO, collected in megacity Dhaka and at the strategically-located Bangladesh Climate Observatory at Bhola Island (BCOB intercepts the outflow from the entire Indo-Gangetic Plain, IGP).  The quantitative apportionment of biomass and fossil sources of atmospheric BC and CO will also be used to ground-truth predictions from state-of-the-art emission-transport models, and to advise decisions on mitigation efforts.  The project thus addresses central Sustainable Development Goals related to mitigation of climate change, and access to clean air and freshwater. KOL-14 DATERING OCH ANDRA ISOTOP-BASERADE FINGERAVTRYCK AVSLÖJAR KÄLLORNA TILL DET HÄLSO- OCH KLIMATPÅVERKANDE BRUNA MOLNET ÖVER BANGLADESH Sverige har tillsammans med Bangladesh och fyra andra strategiska partners bildat Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC; som nu har över 60 medlemsländer), vilken har som syfte att verka för att minska utsläppen av kortlivade klimatpåverkande luftföroreningar (s.k. Short-Lived Climate Pollutants SLCP). Koalitionen inser att SLCP, framförallt Black Carbon (BC, sot) aerosoler men också reaktiva gaser som kolmonoxid (CO) från ofullständig förbränning, står för en betydande del av klimatförändringarna i nu och närtid och dessutom påverkar negativt folkhälsan, tillgången på färskvatten och matförsörjningen i stora befolkningstäta områden.Sydasien och framförallt den nordliga Indo-Gangetiska Slätten (IGP) är en av de mest drabbade områdena som under en stor del av året är insvept i vad från satelliter ser ut som ett stort brunt moln.  Detta Bruna Moln bygger vintertid upp under transport genom hela IGP och tränger in i Bangladesh där några av de högsta halterna och effekterna har uppmäts.  Världshälsoorganisationen WHO pekar på att 14 av världens mest förorenade städer finns jsut här i Södra Asien. CCAC Koalitionen, UNEP, IPCC och WHO efterfrågar studier för att förbättra det vetenskapliga underlaget kring dessa utsläpp, med ett fokus på information som kan underlätta effektiva åtgärder.

Home to 1.5 billion people and to 14 of the World’s 15 most polluted cities, its highly populated northern corridor is perennially blanketed with a haze of climate- and health-affecting air pollution. This haze of aerosol and gas pollutants results from many different and poorly constrained incomplete combustion sources, This causes severe effects on both the climate, the food and water supply, as well as the quality of the air people breathe.The overarching purpose of this proposed study is to quantitatively apportion the relative contribution of different emission sources to two of the most disruptive components of this South Asian air pollution:  Black Carbon (BC; soot aerosols) and carbon monoxide (CO; a gas).In collaboration with atmospheric scientists at University of Dhaka, we will advance cutting-edge source-diagnostic dual-isotope fingerprinting on samples of BC and CO, collected in megacity Dhaka and at the strategically-located Bangladesh Climate Observatory at Bhola Island (BCOB intercepts the outflow from the entire Indo-Gangetic Plain, IGP).  The quantitative apportionment of biomass and fossil sources of atmospheric BC and CO will also be used to ground-truth predictions from state-of-the-art emission-transport models, and to advise decisions on mitigation efforts.  The project thus addresses central Sustainable Development Goals related to mitigation of climate change, and access to clean air and freshwater. KOL-14 DATERING OCH ANDRA ISOTOP-BASERADE FINGERAVTRYCK AVSLÖJAR KÄLLORNA TILL DET HÄLSO- OCH KLIMATPÅVERKANDE BRUNA MOLNET ÖVER BANGLADESH Sverige har tillsammans med Bangladesh och fyra andra strategiska partners bildat Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC; som nu har över 60 medlemsländer), vilken har som syfte att verka för att minska utsläppen av kortlivade klimatpåverkande luftföroreningar (s.k. Short-Lived Climate Pollutants SLCP). Koalitionen inser att SLCP, framförallt Black Carbon (BC, sot) aerosoler men också reaktiva gaser som kolmonoxid (CO) från ofullständig förbränning, står för en betydande del av klimatförändringarna i nu och närtid och dessutom påverkar negativt folkhälsan, tillgången på färskvatten och matförsörjningen i stora befolkningstäta områden.Sydasien och framförallt den nordliga Indo-Gangetiska Slätten (IGP) är en av de mest drabbade områdena som under en stor del av året är insvept i vad från satelliter ser ut som ett stort brunt moln.  Detta Bruna Moln bygger vintertid upp under transport genom hela IGP och tränger in i Bangladesh där några av de högsta halterna och effekterna har uppmäts.  Världshälsoorganisationen WHO pekar på att 14 av världens mest förorenade städer finns jsut här i Södra Asien. CCAC Koalitionen, UNEP, IPCC och WHO efterfrågar studier för att förbättra det vetenskapliga underlaget kring dessa utsläpp, med ett fokus på information som kan underlätta effektiva åtgärder. Ett viktigt exempel på detta är kunskap om de relativa utsläppsbidragen från olika källor.Huvudmålet med det föreslagna projektet är att i ett långtgående och framåtsyftande samarbete med forskarkollegor i Bangladesh tillämpa avancerad isotop-diagnostik på atmosfärsprover BC/sot aerosoler och CO gas, tagna vid två strategiskt placerade atmosfärsobservatorier (i megacity Dhaka och vid det källintegrerade utflödet av IGP i södra Bangladesh (Bhola Observatory), för att kvantitativt bestämma de relativa bidragen från olika aktiviteter, såsom trafik, industrier, tegelbruk, vedeldning, öppna eldar och svedjebruk inom jordbruket.Projektet vidareutveckar ett flerårigt svensk-bangladeshiskt forskningssamarbete där vi nu byggt upp de två strategiskt viktiga atmsofärsobservatorierna och utvecklat både provtagning och mätmetoder for kol-14 i aerosoler.

This network will explore differenet aspects of MOF technology, from drug delivery to water harvesting with the Botswana Research Alliance (BITRI in Gaborone, University of California – Berkeley, Chalmers), University of Johannesburg and University of Cape Town.We will design a system where CO2 is combined with H2 to obtain value-added chemicals and removing CO2 from industrial exhausts using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) catalysis. The use of these highly porous materials is expected to increase product yields, and the use of MOFs for this purpose is relative new. Our published and preliminary results are encouraging.MOFs will be synthesised and characterised using state-of-the-art techniques and the catalytic performance evaluated over a wide range of temperature and pressure in a process chemistry set-up. The bulk of the experimental work will be carried out in Zimbabwe.This address environmental concerns, and it will also provide organic starting materials for the chemical industry in countries devoid of oil resources. Symbiosis in envisaged with the cement inOdustry, responsible for 5% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions but at the same time essential for development in sub-Saharan Africa.We also expect the network to work on water harvesting MOFs. Nätverket blir en del i ett störra sammanhang tillsammans med Botswana Research Alliance (Botswana Institute for Technology Research and Innovation i Gaborone, University of California – Berkeley, Chalmers), University of Johannesburg och University of Cape Town. Forskningsprojektet går ut på att hitta ett system för att katalysera reaktionen mellan koldioxid och vätgas för att framställa startmaterial för kemisk industri, så kallad CO2 reduktion. Idén är att använda katalysatorer bundna till metallorganiska ramverksföreningar (s.k. MOF:ar, Metal-Organic Frameworks). Detta är nya material som utvecklats de senaste 20 åren med potentiella tillämpningar inom allt från gaslagring till läkemedelsleverans i kroppen och där kommersiella produkter nyligen kommit ut på marknaden. Ett mer allmänt syfte är att underlätta både forskning och kommersiell utveckling av dessa material i södra Afrika. Många av tillämpningarna är direkt applicerbara på  hållbar utveckling. Specifikt kombinerar vi MOF:ars förmåga till gasupptag med deras unika möjligheter att kombinera det bästa egenskaperna från både homogen katalys i lösning och heterogen katalys på fasta ytor. Homogen katalys med katalysatorn som enstaka molekyler upplösta i ett lösningsmedel har ofta mycket bra selektivitet, d.v.s. bara en produkt bildas, men återanvändning av katalysatorn är ofta besvärlig och kostsam. Dessutom hämmas aktiviteten ofta av att enstaka katalysatormolekyler slår ihop sig och bildar katalytiskt inaktiva större molekyler.Heterogen katalys å andra sidan kan ha dålig selektivitet eftersom många olika katalysatorsäten kan finnas på den fasta ytan.

This network will explore differenet aspects of MOF technology, from drug delivery to water harvesting with the Botswana Research Alliance (BITRI in Gaborone, University of California – Berkeley, Chalmers), University of Johannesburg and University of Cape Town.We will design a system where CO2 is combined with H2 to obtain value-added chemicals and removing CO2 from industrial exhausts using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) catalysis. The use of these highly porous materials is expected to increase product yields, and the use of MOFs for this purpose is relative new. Our published and preliminary results are encouraging.MOFs will be synthesised and characterised using state-of-the-art techniques and the catalytic performance evaluated over a wide range of temperature and pressure in a process chemistry set-up. The bulk of the experimental work will be carried out in Zimbabwe.This address environmental concerns, and it will also provide organic starting materials for the chemical industry in countries devoid of oil resources. Symbiosis in envisaged with the cement inOdustry, responsible for 5% of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions but at the same time essential for development in sub-Saharan Africa.We also expect the network to work on water harvesting MOFs. Nätverket blir en del i ett störra sammanhang tillsammans med Botswana Research Alliance (Botswana Institute for Technology Research and Innovation i Gaborone, University of California – Berkeley, Chalmers), University of Johannesburg och University of Cape Town. Forskningsprojektet går ut på att hitta ett system för att katalysera reaktionen mellan koldioxid och vätgas för att framställa startmaterial för kemisk industri, så kallad CO2 reduktion. Idén är att använda katalysatorer bundna till metallorganiska ramverksföreningar (s.k. MOF:ar, Metal-Organic Frameworks). Detta är nya material som utvecklats de senaste 20 åren med potentiella tillämpningar inom allt från gaslagring till läkemedelsleverans i kroppen och där kommersiella produkter nyligen kommit ut på marknaden. Ett mer allmänt syfte är att underlätta både forskning och kommersiell utveckling av dessa material i södra Afrika. Många av tillämpningarna är direkt applicerbara på  hållbar utveckling. Specifikt kombinerar vi MOF:ars förmåga till gasupptag med deras unika möjligheter att kombinera det bästa egenskaperna från både homogen katalys i lösning och heterogen katalys på fasta ytor. Homogen katalys med katalysatorn som enstaka molekyler upplösta i ett lösningsmedel har ofta mycket bra selektivitet, d.v.s. bara en produkt bildas, men återanvändning av katalysatorn är ofta besvärlig och kostsam.

Developing crop cultivars well-adapted to drought can help promote farmers’ resilience to climate change. Durum wheat is one of Ethiopia’s major crops that is being seriously affected by expanding drought, as it is mainly produced under rain-fed conditions. In this project, we aim to develop and supply drought tolerant durum wheat germplasm to breeders for eventual release of new cultivars that can produce high grain yield and rich in quality protein for cultivation under rainfed conditions in drought-prone areas, thereby enhance food and nutritional security and improve rural livelihoods. This will be achieved through (1) phenotyping durum wheat germplasm resources for their tolerance to drought  in the field and biotron and analyze the protein/lysine contents of drought tolerant germplasm; (2) genotyping diverse durum wheat germplasm followed by conducting genome-wide association studies to identify favorable alleles for drought tolerance and develop sets of molecular markers that can be used in marker assisted selection (MAS); (3) characterize durum what orthologues of genes that are known to contribute to abiotic stresses in other cereals and use in MAS; and (4) induce somaclonal variation and develop hybrids for combining favorable alleles contributing to these traits. De förutspådda klimatförändringarna förutspås ge ett mer oförutsägbart väder och mer oregelbunden nederbörd.  Regionerna runt ekvatorn förväntas drabbas hårdast. Samtidigt kommer temperaturerna att stiga och torkan kommer att öka, i synnerhet i Afrika söder om Sahara, där regn samtidigt, även fortsättningsvis förväntas förbli det huvudsakliga tillskottet av vatten till jordbruket. Konsekvenserna av klimatförändringarna kommer därmed att bli allvarliga, tillgången på mat och näringsriktig kost kommer att påverkas menligt. Det förändrade klimatet kommer att inverka negativt på produktiviteten hos jordbruksgrödorna, inte minst gäller detta de grödor som utgör stapelföda i denna del av världen. Utveckling av näringsrika, högavkastande grödor och sorter som är väl anpassade för torka kan dock hjälpa till att lindra effekten av klimatförändringarna. Sådana sorter kan också bidra till att bönderna i dessa regioner står bättre rustade mot effekterna av klimatförändringarna. Etiopien är ett av de länder i Afrika söder om Sahara som i hög grad kommer att påverkas av ett förändrat klimat. Landet har den sextonde högsta hungernivån, enligt Global Hunger Index som släpptes under 2017. Låg produktivitet och undermålig näringskvalitet i de grödor som utgör huvudsakliga baslivsmedel i Etiopien har bidragit till detta. Fastän Etiopien är den andra största veteproducenten i Afrika efter Egypten kommer landet bara på sjätte plats när det gäller veteproduktivitet. Den genomsnittliga avkastningen är 2,7 ton/hektar, jämfört med Egyptens 6,6 ton/hektar, vilket vittnar om att det finns ett akut behov att förbättra avkastningen. Durumvete är en av Etiopens största grödor och avkastningen av durumvete kommer att allvarligt påverkas när torkperioden ökar, eftersom denna gröda i stort sett bara produceras med regn som vattenkälla. Med detta projekt vill vi bidra till utvecklingen av torktoleranta durumvetesorter som kan producera hög kärnskörd i torkdrabbade områden där regn är den enda vattenkällan. Vi avser därmed att bidra till en ökad mat- och näringssäkerhet och förbättra försörjningen på landsbygden under ett förändligt klimat i Etiopien och även andra länder i regioner. För att uppnå målet med projektet kommer vi att använda inhemska lantraser av durumvete från Etiopiska och internationella genbanker och förädlingsprogram för Etiopien. Etiopiskt durumvete har hög genetisk variation vilket gör det möjlig att uppräcka gynnsamma alleler (genvarianter) för tolerans mot torka. Vi kommer att använda fenotypdata från fältförsök i Etiopien och från högteknologiska klimatkammare vid Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU) samt genotypdata (DNA information) för att bestämma sambandet mellan alleler och tolerans för torkstress och för kvalitet. Dessutom kommer gener som är kända för att reglera torkkänslighet i andra spannmålssorter att analyseras i durumvete för att identifiera gynnsamma alleler som bidrar till tolerans. De alleler som kan länkas till tolerans mot torka, samt de molekylära markörer som kan användas för att detektera dessa alleler, kommer att vara mycket betydelsefulla för matförsörjningen i Etiopien. De kommer att bidra till effektiv och snabb utveckling av nya högavkastande durumvetesorter som kan växa i torkdrabbade områden med regnvatten som enda vattenkälla. De torktoleranta genotyper som kommer att utvecklas inom ramarna för detta projekt kommer att göras tillgängliga för etiopiska- och ICARDA- durumveteförädlare för vidare användning inom växtförädling av durumvete och förväntas bidra till utvecklingen av nya sorter. Projektet kommer även att stärka kapaciteten och öka kunskapen hos etiopiska förädlare av durumvete, framförallt när det gäller användandet av avancerade växtförädlingstekniker. Kunskap och praktisk erfarenhet kommer att utbytas, utvecklas och spridas gemensamt mellan projektdeltagarna från Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), Addis Ababa University (AAU), ICARDA och EIAR.

Etiopiskt durumvete har hög genetisk variation vilket gör det möjlig att uppräcka gynnsamma alleler (genvarianter) för tolerans mot torka. Vi kommer att använda fenotypdata från fältförsök i Etiopien och från högteknologiska klimatkammare vid Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU) samt genotypdata (DNA information) för att bestämma sambandet mellan alleler och tolerans för torkstress och för kvalitet. Dessutom kommer gener som är kända för att reglera torkkänslighet i andra spannmålssorter att analyseras i durumvete för att identifiera gynnsamma alleler som bidrar till tolerans. De alleler som kan länkas till tolerans mot torka, samt de molekylära markörer som kan användas för att detektera dessa alleler, kommer att vara mycket betydelsefulla för matförsörjningen i Etiopien. De kommer att bidra till effektiv och snabb utveckling av nya högavkastande durumvetesorter som kan växa i torkdrabbade områden med regnvatten som enda vattenkälla. De torktoleranta genotyper som kommer att utvecklas inom ramarna för detta projekt kommer att göras tillgängliga för etiopiska- och ICARDA- durumveteförädlare för vidare användning inom växtförädling av durumvete och förväntas bidra till utvecklingen av nya sorter. Projektet kommer även att stärka kapaciteten och öka kunskapen hos etiopiska förädlare av durumvete, framförallt när det gäller användandet av avancerade växtförädlingstekniker. Kunskap och praktisk erfarenhet kommer att utbytas, utvecklas och spridas gemensamt mellan projektdeltagarna från Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), Addis Ababa University (AAU), ICARDA och EIAR.

Developing crop cultivars well-adapted to drought can help promote farmers’ resilience to climate change. Durum wheat is one of Ethiopia’s major crops that is being seriously affected by expanding drought, as it is mainly produced under rain-fed conditions. In this project, we aim to develop and supply drought tolerant durum wheat germplasm to breeders for eventual release of new cultivars that can produce high grain yield and rich in quality protein for cultivation under rainfed conditions in drought-prone areas, thereby enhance food and nutritional security and improve rural livelihoods. This will be achieved through (1) phenotyping durum wheat germplasm resources for their tolerance to drought  in the field and biotron and analyze the protein/lysine contents of drought tolerant germplasm; (2) genotyping diverse durum wheat germplasm followed by conducting genome-wide association studies to identify favorable alleles for drought tolerance and develop sets of molecular markers that can be used in marker assisted selection (MAS); (3) characterize durum what orthologues of genes that are known to contribute to abiotic stresses in other cereals and use in MAS; and (4) induce somaclonal variation and develop hybrids for combining favorable alleles contributing to these traits. De förutspådda klimatförändringarna förutspås ge ett mer oförutsägbart väder och mer oregelbunden nederbörd.  Regionerna runt ekvatorn förväntas drabbas hårdast. Samtidigt kommer temperaturerna att stiga och torkan kommer att öka, i synnerhet i Afrika söder om Sahara, där regn samtidigt, även fortsättningsvis förväntas förbli det huvudsakliga tillskottet av vatten till jordbruket. Konsekvenserna av klimatförändringarna kommer därmed att bli allvarliga, tillgången på mat och näringsriktig kost kommer att påverkas menligt. Det förändrade klimatet kommer att inverka negativt på produktiviteten hos jordbruksgrödorna, inte minst gäller detta de grödor som utgör stapelföda i denna del av världen. Utveckling av näringsrika, högavkastande grödor och sorter som är väl anpassade för torka kan dock hjälpa till att lindra effekten av klimatförändringarna. Sådana sorter kan också bidra till att bönderna i dessa regioner står bättre rustade mot effekterna av klimatförändringarna. Etiopien är ett av de länder i Afrika söder om Sahara som i hög grad kommer att påverkas av ett förändrat klimat. Landet har den sextonde högsta hungernivån, enligt Global Hunger Index som släpptes under 2017. Låg produktivitet och undermålig näringskvalitet i de grödor som utgör huvudsakliga baslivsmedel i Etiopien har bidragit till detta. Fastän Etiopien är den andra största veteproducenten i Afrika efter Egypten kommer landet bara på sjätte plats när det gäller veteproduktivitet. Den genomsnittliga avkastningen är 2,7 ton/hektar, jämfört med Egyptens 6,6 ton/hektar, vilket vittnar om att det finns ett akut behov att förbättra avkastningen. Durumvete är en av Etiopens största grödor och avkastningen av durumvete kommer att allvarligt påverkas när torkperioden ökar, eftersom denna gröda i stort sett bara produceras med regn som vattenkälla. Med detta projekt vill vi bidra till utvecklingen av torktoleranta durumvetesorter som kan producera hög kärnskörd i torkdrabbade områden där regn är den enda vattenkällan.

This makes it difficult to control, and also puts a great burden on afflicted populations because of the lengthy infections.

Our goal is to find drug candidates blocking the P. vivax dormant liver stage.Antiparasitic drug discovery has been slow because of insufficient funding, and inefficient scientific approaches. We will speed this up using modern genomics-oriented technologies in target identification and drug candidate discovery. Surrogate genetics in yeast allows us to access target proteins from the dormant liver stage.

These will be refined with medicinal chemistry and tested for efficacy against parasites resistant to existing drugs, and against the dormant liver stage in a newly designed liver model system for Plasmodium infections. Förekomsten av malaria i världen är nära kopplad till låg inkomst. Sjukdomen orsakas av parasiter av släktet Plasmodium och sprids med myggor av släktet Anopheles. Otäta bostäder och frånvaro av dränering ökar riskerna för utbredning av malaria. Bristande resurser och fysisk infrastruktur försvårar åtgärder mot sjukdomen som myggnät och malariamediciner. På grund av fattigdom och otillräckligt antal medicinskt utbildad personal förekommer det att förfalskade eller utblandade malariamediciner säljs, och att otillräckliga doser tas. Allt detta driver på utvecklingen av resistens mot malariamediciner, ett snabbt ökande globalt problem.Malaria är en av de tre infektionssjukdomar som orsakar flest dödsfall hos människa; nära en halv miljon människor dör av malaria årligen. Räknat i antal sjuka är dock malaria överlägset störst bland dessa tre, i genomsnitt är över 200 miljoner människor infekterade av Plasmodium. Särskilt små barn och gravida kvinnor är sårbara. En malariainfektion är ofta långvarig, i vissa fall livslång. Den negativa effekten av malaria på samhällets ekonomiska utveckling blir därför stor, på grund av långa perioder av utebliven skolgång och oförmåga till arbete. Detta gäller särskilt för P. vivax, den art av malariaparasiten som vi inriktar oss på här. Den har förmåga att etablera ett permanent vilstadium i levern, där det är mycket svårt att komma åt den. Infektioner av P. vivax kan därför bli kroniska och orsaka livslångt lidande.Inget fungerande malariavaccin existerar, endast antimalarialäkemedel är effektiva. En oroande resistensökning har dock setts globalt under de senaste decennierna, vilket gör utveckling av nya läkemedel till en prioritet. Då de befolkningar som drabbas har knappa resurser att betala för behandling, har läkemedelsföretagen inte varit aktiva i att ta fram nya läkemedel mot malaria. Liksom för de flesta tropiska sjukdomar har därför satsningarna varit små, och finansieringen kommit från offentliga och icke-kommersiella källor.Jämfört med P. falciparum, som orsakar ett häftigare sjukdomsförlopp och högre akut dödlighet, har P. vivax tilldragit sig mindre uppmärksamhet. Vivax-malaria är därför ofta underdiagnosticerad. I motsats till P. falciparum är det inte möjligt att kontinuerligt odla P. vivax in vitro, vilket gör det tekniskt svårt att testa läkemedelskandidater. Av dessa två skäl har framtagandet av läkemedel mot P. vivax blivit relativt sett försummat, och i dagsläget finns endast ett par läkemedel mot P. vivax.Forskning för upptäckt av nya läkemedel mot tropiska parasitsjukdomar har länge bedrivits enligt ålderdomliga principer. Vi vill tillämpa nya molekylära metoder för att snabba på processen. Vi använder ett genetiskt surrogatsystem i jäst för att kunna jämföra proteiner från P. vivax med motsvarigheterna hos människa. På så sätt kan vi hitta molekyler som slår främst mot parasitproteinet, vilket minskar risken för biverkningar. Vi kommer också att använda datorbaserade metoder och artificiell intelligens för att leta molekyler som kan binda till målproteinerna och med lämplig struktur för vidare utveckling till läkemedel. Vi kommer att utnyttja robotiserad metodik för höghastighetstestning. Bland de samarbetande forskargrupperna finns kompetens i strukturbiologi, beräkningskemi och läkemedelskemi. Det finns också tillgång till lämpliga modeller för att testa effektiviteten mot Plasmodium, och särskilt mot vilstadiet i levern.Vi inriktar oss på att hitta molekyler som blockerar bildningen av det permanenta vilstadiet i levern för P. vivax. För detta behöver vi identifiera proteiner som är nödvändiga för detta stadium, vilket vi kommer att göra genom att studera genuttrycksmönster hos parasiten i olika faser av dess livscykel. Om vi lyckas med att blockera vilstadiet i levern, öppnas vägen mot att kunna slutgiltigt eliminera parasiten från en smittad individ.

In low-income countries one-fifth of adult deaths are associated with TB. If left untreated, each person with active TB is estimated to infect 10 to 15 new individuals annually. Therefore, interrupting disease transmission by accurate early detection/diagnosis, paired with appropriate treatment is of major importance. One quarter of the world´s population is estimated to be latently infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and as such are at lifelong risk of progressing to active TB. It is estimated that 10% of latently infected develop active TB. However, no tests currently exist that can accurately predict who will progress from latent to active TB. The purpose of this project is to evaluate two novel methods to detect progression from latent TB to active disease; 1) a multiplex FluoroSpot assay that is a further development of the clinically used single-plex T-Spot assay, and 2) immune response signatures based on cell and plasma profiling. This proposal takes advantage of a recently initiated EDCTP-funded prospective multicenter study (called ERASE-TB) that is designed to sample 2100 household contacts to individuals with active TB in Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique. Samples will be collected at several timepoints over two years after confirmed exposure to Mtb, providing an optimal setting to evaluate the proposed diagnostic methods. Tuberkulos är den enskilt största infektionssjukdomen som globalt leder till flest dödsfall varje år. Den drabbar främst låginkomstländer, där upp till vart femte dödsfall hos vuxna är associerat med sjukdomen. Det är estimerat att ca 25% av jordens befolkning är infekterade med Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), den bacill som orsakar tuberkulos. Hos de allra flesta hålls infektionen i en vilande icke-smittsam form, men över sin livstid kommer ca 10% av dessa utveckla en aktiv smittsam form. Varje smittsam individ beräknas sedan infektera 10–15 nya individer. Den nuvarande behandlingen består av kombinationspreparat som ges under 6 månader, ofta med biverkningar, vilket försvårar följsamheten. Då så många lever med en kontrollerad vilande infektion globalt så är det därför inte eftersträvansvärt att behandla alla. Dessutom skulle behandling på bred front snabbt leda till utveckling av resistenta stammar. Detta är redan ett problem på många platser och försvårar behandlingen markant. För att stoppa spridningen av Mtb och utvecklingen av tuberkulos behövs därför bättre detektionsmetoder. Dessa bör kunna identifiera de som är infekterade och på väg att utveckla en aktiv smittsam sjukdom. För närvarande finns inga tester som klarar detta. I detta projekt utvärderas två nya metoder för deras kapacitet att identifiera individer som är på väg att utveckla aktiv smittsam sjukdom. Denna typ av studier är svåra att genomföra då man behöver följa ett stort antal individer med känd Mtb exponering över tid för att se vilka som utvecklar en aktiv sjukdom. Man kan sedan använda tidigare insamlade prover från de individerna som utvecklade aktiv sjukdom och jämföra med prover från andra individer som fortsatt att kontrollera sin infektion. Genom denna jämförelse kan man då hitta mönster, eller signaturer, som förutsäger utvecklingen av aktiv sjukdom. Ett uppföljande steg är sedan att översätta dessa ”signaturer” till diagnostiska tester. I detta projekt kommer vi att medverka i ett större europeiskt samarbetsprojekt där man följer 2100 individer i Tanzania, Moçambique, och Zimbabwe med känd Mtb exponering över två år. Under de två åren samlar vi in prover vid fyra tillfällen. Proverna används sedan för att undersöka individens immunsvar och att identifiera signaturer associerade med utveckling av aktiv sjukdom. Kan vi säkerställa signaturer som förutsäger utveckling av aktiv sjukdom med stor säkerhet så har vi en god start för att utveckla bättre diagnostiska tester.

Current climate change mitigation programs revolving around re- and afforestation may conflict with biodiversity and local livelihoods in savanna-dominated ecosystems in Sub-Saharan Africa. We urgently need to identify key processes that could provide synergies between biodiversity, climate change mitigation and livelihood services. In Faunal Activities for Climate Action (FACA), we develop a new partnership between Swedish, African and European scientists to investigate the hypothesis that restoring animal diversity will promote the successful dispersal and pollination of a broad diversity of tree species, essential for carbon storage and other ecosystem services. Our new partnership will expand the southern African vegetation-monitoring network, SEOSAW, with animal diversity monitoring using novel passive acoustic sensors. We will implement this using a combination of online workshops and local training sessions in Africa. We initially focus on 2 SEOSAW partners (Angola and Mozambique) and add Madagascar as the only southern African country currently not in SEOSAW. We will then develop larger grant applications involving all 12 southern African countries currently included in SEOSAW. This partnership will expand the role of African scientists in global change research, giving Africa a stronger voice in global policy platforms. Med globala klimat- och biologiska mångfaldskriser hotande, måste vi hitta sätt att maximera koldioxidlagring och minimera utsläpp utan att skada växt och vilt. Detta är särskilt viktigt i savannskogarna som sträcker sig över större delen av Afrika söder om Sahara, biologisk mångfald, minskning av klimatförändringar och mänsklig försörjning hotas av markomvandling och skogsintrång. Vi måste därför identifiera viktiga processer som samtidigt kan främja koldioxidbindning och återställa funktioner för biologisk mångfald och försörjning. För att möta dessa utmaningar kommer forskare från Madagaskar och Sverige att gå samman med ett nätverk av 12 afrikanska länder för att samla kunskap om vilt, och växter samt hur de interagerar med varandra och deras miljö, inklusive människor.Under de två första åren av vårt partnerskap kommer vi att sammanställa information om lagring av kol, samt vilka djur som pollinerar och sprider savannträd för att se om djuren hjälper till att lagra kol genom att sprida frön och ’plantera’ de träd som lagrar mest kol. Detta kommer att kräva en ny datainsamling och analys av hur mycket kol som lagras i träd. Om djuraktiviteter hjälper till att maximera koldioxidlagring i ett område, är det att bra sätt skydda dessa djur, eftersom utan dem kommer koldioxidlagringen så småningom att minska. Vi kommer också att testa nya metoder för att upptäcka djuren som pollinerar och sprider trädfrön i Angola, Moçambique och Madagaskar med hjälp av akustiska inspelare. Dessa inspelningar visar den rika och unika biologiska mångfalden i skogsmarkerna och hjälper oss att koppla djurens mångfald till kollagring.

Med globala klimat- och biologiska mångfaldskriser hotande, måste vi hitta sätt att maximera koldioxidlagring och minimera utsläpp utan att skada växt och vilt. Detta är särskilt viktigt i savannskogarna som sträcker sig över större delen av Afrika söder om Sahara, biologisk mångfald, minskning av klimatförändringar och mänsklig försörjning hotas av markomvandling och skogsintrång. Vi måste därför identifiera viktiga processer som samtidigt kan främja koldioxidbindning och återställa funktioner för biologisk mångfald och försörjning. För att möta dessa utmaningar kommer forskare från Madagaskar och Sverige att gå samman med ett nätverk av 12 afrikanska länder för att samla kunskap om vilt, och växter samt hur de interagerar med varandra och deras miljö, inklusive människor.Under de två första åren av vårt partnerskap kommer vi att sammanställa information om lagring av kol, samt vilka djur som pollinerar och sprider savannträd för att se om djuren hjälper till att lagra kol genom att sprida frön och ’plantera’ de träd som lagrar mest kol. Detta kommer att kräva en ny datainsamling och analys av hur mycket kol som lagras i träd.

A new global agenda to protect 30% of the ocean by 2030 provides a window of opportunity to rethink MPA design to maximize their benefits for both nature and society. In the Indo-Pacific, a region with high levels of poverty, seagrasses provide several important benefits to humans, such as productive fisheries and coastal protection. Seagrass specific conservation measures are rare and seldom a priority in tropical conservation strategies or targeted in MPAs. In the proposed project, we will assess how MPAs could be better designed to help safeguard the future of Indo-Pacific seagrasses and, indirectly, the crucial benefits they provide to coastal communities. We will combine ecological field surveys over time and space with social science analyses and social-ecological modelling. We will address drivers of seagrass cover and species composition; synergies and trade-offs between seagrass protection and socio-economic development; how we can rethink MPA design to include seagrass, and the key factors to consider for policymakers and managers. The methods described and the anticipated results are at the forefront of marine conservation issues and highly relevant not only to seagrass research but to all research aimed at developing conservation solutions through multi-scale stakeholder engagement. Marina skyddade områden har blivit ett av de främsta verktygen för att bromsa förlusten av marin biodiversitet. Nyligen åtog sig många länder att skydda minst 30% av sina havsområden till år 2030, ett initiativet kallat “30X30”. För att möjliggöra denna ambitiösa plan behövs nu en drastiskt ökad kunskap om var och hur vi bäst ska införa olika typer av MPAs för att maximera deras nytta och minimera deras potentiellt negativa effekter på t.ex. människor som är starkt beroende av naturresurser som fiske. Sjögräsängar är ett globalt förekommande marint ekosystem som bidrar med många viktiga ekosystemtjänster till just fattiga kustsamhällen i utvecklingsländer, som fiske för mat och inkomst, motverkande av kusterosion och som kolsänkor, vilket bromsar klimatförändringar. Men trots sjögräsängars stora betydelse så saknar vi fortfarande mycket kunskap om dem och många människor känner inte till dem eller vad som skiljer sjögräs från alger (eng: “seaweed” vs. seagrass); ett faktum som bidragit till att de sällan inkluderats i marina förvaltningsplaner och marina skyddade områden. Men med ökad exploatering av kustzoner har sjögräsens utbredningen minskat drastiskt runt om i världen. Speciellt anmärkningsvärt är att i fokusområdet för studien – Indiska Oceanen och västra Stilla havet – så är sjögräs sällan inkluderade eller ens nämnda i marina förvaltningsplaner och bevarandestrategier. Därför vet vi ännu inte heller vilka förvaltnings- och bevarandestrategier som är mest effektiva för att både skydda sjögräs och säkerställa att deras ekosystemtjänster fortfarande kan gynna människor. Syftet med projektet är att skapa en bättre förståelse om hur vi på bästa sätt kan inkludera sjögräs i marina skyddade områden med hänsyn till social, ekonomisk och miljömässig hållbarhet i tropiska utvecklingsländer. För att nå dit behöver vi lära oss mer om flera områden inom sjögräsforskningsfältet. Projektet består av tre arbetspaket för att ta fram ett gediget kunskapsunderlag om hur man bäst kan inkludera sjögräs i Indiska Oceanen och västra Stilla havet i marina skyddsområden inom ramen för stark hållbar utveckling. Vi kommer att göra ekologiska undersökningar där vi kommer att undersöka vad det är som påverkar sjögräsets hälsa. Vi kommer även att undersöka sociala aspekter av marint skydd av sjögräs, för att få en förståelse hur det skydd av sjögräs (eller avsaknaden därav) kommer att påverka människor. Vi kommer även använda oss av modellering, som ett hjälpmedel för att utreda vilka som är de optimala strategierna för sjögräs beroende på vad för mål man har med sin förvaltning, socioekonomiska förhållanden, hur landskapet ser ut, vilka resurser man har, samt vilka hot och miljöfaktorer som påverkar området. Alla steg i modelleringen kommer att ge oss mycket värdefull data som flyttar forskningsfronten framåt. Vi kommer att samarbeta inom Indo-Pacific Seagrass Network (IPSN); ett regionalt forskningsnätverk i Indiska Oceanen och västra Stilla havet. IPSN leds av huvudsökanden för denna studie och har nyligen koordinerat en datainsamling om sjögräsekologi, fiske och människans beroende och nyttjande av sjögräsängar i 26 områden i nio länder med hjälp av över hundra forskare och förvaltare. Kunskapsunderlaget som kommer att tas fram i den planerade studie kommer att användas för att identifiera vilka steg som man behöver överväga när man planerar att inkludera sjögräs i förvaltningsplaner av redan etablerade skyddade områden, om man vill utvidga existerande parker till att inkludera sjögräs, eller när man planerar att etablera nya parker för eller som kommer att ha sjögräs. Även om projektet fokuserar på sjögräs, så kommer resultaten och metoderna från detta tvärvetenskapliga projekt att kunna appliceras på andra ekosystem och i andra delar av världen.

Cases of sextortion have been documented in a range of contexts and sectors around the world, but because it does not neatly fit the definition of neither corruption nor gender based violence, it tends to be made invisible in both research and development practice.  Theoretically, this project will demonstrate what the implications are when sex is the currency of a corrupt transaction. Empirically, it will investigate how action can be taken against sextortion in a development project. In three steps, the project (1) theoretically highlights important aspects of the concept of sextortion, (2) maps if and how they translate into policy formulation, and (3) identifies opportunities and challenges with implementing policy about sextortion. With a definition of sextortion emphasizing the abuse of authority and the role of gender norms as a starting point, the project closely follows a process around formulating and implementing policy about sextortion in a non-governmental organization working with adult education in Tanzania. Sextortion är en form av korruption och könsbaserat våld. Sextortion innebär att en person missbrukar sin maktposition för att få tillgång till en sexuell tjänst, i utbyte mot en tjänst eller förmån som hen har möjlighet att bevilja eller undanhålla i kraft av sin position.Sextortion är en kränkning av mänskliga rättigheter och ett maktmissbruk. Men eftersom sextortion äger rum i gränslandet mellan korruption och könsbaserat våld, faller sextortion ofta mellan stolarna. De flesta studier av korruption undersöker mutor med fokus på pengar, vilket riskerar att osynliggöra andra former av korruption. I sextortion är valutan istället sex, vilket bidrar till dess osynliggörande. Offer för sextortion upplever ofta rädsla, skam och stigmatisering, vilket gör att flertalet fall av sextortion aldrig rapporteras.Detta projekt undersöker vilka implikationer det får när sex är valutan i korrupta transaktioner.I Tanzania är sextortion ett erkänt fenomen med ett eget begrepp, till skillnad från de flesta andra länder. Detta ger verktyg att motverka sextortion, men det finns också glapp mellan policy och lagstiftning om sextortion, och implementeringen av desamma.Projektet studerar organisationen Karibu Tanzania Organization (KTO), som samlar folkhögskolor i Tanzania, och följer deras process att formulera och implementera policies för att motverka sextortion. Denna process tar sin början 2021, och KTO samarbetar med myndigheten mot korruption och utbildningsdepartementet i Tanzania för att integrera sextortion även i deras arbete. KTOs process och samarbeten utgör projektets fallstudie för att studera implementering av policies mot sextortion. Projektet undersöker förutsättningarna för att implementera en sådan policy mot sextortion och vilka utmaningar det finns i implementeringsprocessen.Datainsamling för projektet görs genom fältarbetesresor till Tanzania och workshops med representanter för regeringsdepartement och antikorruptionsmyndigheten, Sida och andra givare, icke-statliga organisationer, samt rektorer och lärare vid KTOs folkhögskolor.

Sextortion är en form av korruption, och korruption är ett allvarligt hinder för hållbar utveckling. Sextortion innebär ett brott mot mänskliga rättigheter. Sextortion försvårar också tillgång till andra rättigheter, såsom grundläggande rättigheter till utbildning, hälsa, arbete under värdiga former, rätten till mark och vatten, säkerhet eller tillträde till rättssystemet.Tidigare forskning om korruption har oftast fokuserat på utbyte av pengar eller andra tjänster, vilket innebär att man har missat specifikt könade former av korruption som sextortion. När sex är valuta i korruption måste man också ta hänsyn till köns- och sexualitetsnormer för att förstå förekomsten och osynliggörandet av sextortion.Tidigare forskning har visat att sextortion är ett allvarligt hinder för hållbar utveckling, men det finns fortfarande kunskapsglapp om hur sextortion kan motverkas och förebyggas. Detta projekt fokuserar på hur maktmissbruk och ansvar formuleras i policies om sextortion, och hur dessa policies sedan kan implementeras.Projektet bidrar med kunskap om vilka implikationer det får när sex är valutan i korrupta transaktioner, vilket förbättrar förutsättningarna för att implementera policies för att motverka sextortion.

Cases of sextortion have been documented in a range of contexts and sectors around the world, but because it does not neatly fit the definition of neither corruption nor gender based violence, it tends to be made invisible in both research and development practice.  Theoretically, this project will demonstrate what the implications are when sex is the currency of a corrupt transaction. Empirically, it will investigate how action can be taken against sextortion in a development project. In three steps, the project (1) theoretically highlights important aspects of the concept of sextortion, (2) maps if and how they translate into policy formulation, and (3) identifies opportunities and challenges with implementing policy about sextortion. With a definition of sextortion emphasizing the abuse of authority and the role of gender norms as a starting point, the project closely follows a process around formulating and implementing policy about sextortion in a non-governmental organization working with adult education in Tanzania. Sextortion är en form av korruption och könsbaserat våld. Sextortion innebär att en person missbrukar sin maktposition för att få tillgång till en sexuell tjänst, i utbyte mot en tjänst eller förmån som hen har möjlighet att bevilja eller undanhålla i kraft av sin position.Sextortion är en kränkning av mänskliga rättigheter och ett maktmissbruk. Men eftersom sextortion äger rum i gränslandet mellan korruption och könsbaserat våld, faller sextortion ofta mellan stolarna. De flesta studier av korruption undersöker mutor med fokus på pengar, vilket riskerar att osynliggöra andra former av korruption. I sextortion är valutan istället sex, vilket bidrar till dess osynliggörande. Offer för sextortion upplever ofta rädsla, skam och stigmatisering, vilket gör att flertalet fall av sextortion aldrig rapporteras.Detta projekt undersöker vilka implikationer det får när sex är valutan i korrupta transaktioner.I Tanzania är sextortion ett erkänt fenomen med ett eget begrepp, till skillnad från de flesta andra länder. Detta ger verktyg att motverka sextortion, men det finns också glapp mellan policy och lagstiftning om sextortion, och implementeringen av desamma.Projektet studerar organisationen Karibu Tanzania Organization (KTO), som samlar folkhögskolor i Tanzania, och följer deras process att formulera och implementera policies för att motverka sextortion. Denna process tar sin början 2021, och KTO samarbetar med myndigheten mot korruption och utbildningsdepartementet i Tanzania för att integrera sextortion även i deras arbete. KTOs process och samarbeten utgör projektets fallstudie för att studera implementering av policies mot sextortion. Projektet undersöker förutsättningarna för att implementera en sådan policy mot sextortion och vilka utmaningar det finns i implementeringsprocessen.Datainsamling för projektet görs genom fältarbetesresor till Tanzania och workshops med representanter för regeringsdepartement och antikorruptionsmyndigheten, Sida och andra givare, icke-statliga organisationer, samt rektorer och lärare vid KTOs folkhögskolor.

Naming practices reflect socio-political conditions and can be seen as a manifestation of authority and ideology. This project contributes to a new way of studying political change and power relations in Rwanda. It stresses the role of language in social development, especially in relation to identity and social cohesion.The project has three specific work packages with interlinked aims: To determine ideologies behind earlier and new naming practices, to establish how naming systems impact on people’s sense of inclusion in Rwandan society, and to highlight and disseminate the voices of those who move in the linguistic landscape. This will be done by developing an interactive map based on a free and collaborative OpenStreetMap that can also be used by educational institutions and organisations in Rwanda. This three-year-project involves researchers from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, and the University of Kigali and the University of Rwanda in Rwanda, who collaborate by conducting document search and analysis, interviews with officials and politicians, with citizens (including video-recorded walk-along interviews), focus group discussions and workshops about how to use and reuse the digital interactive map as well as pedagogical development. Gatuskyltar betyder något. De ingår i det språkliga landskapet som omger oss. De visar på vad som har varit och de pekar mot framtiden. Gatuskyltar i Kigali och andra städer byttes i 2011-2012 ut och ändrade utseende. De nya skyltarna använder ett nytt språk, engelska, som bara talas av en elit. De gamla skyltarna använde nationalspråket kinyarwanda och franska.   Namn- och språkbyten råkar inte bara hända – de är val som visar ideologier och sociala och politiska skeenden. Majoriteten av befolkningen som talar sitt eget modersmål, kinyarwanda, påverkas av sådana val.I Rwanda talar man inte engelska utan kinyarwanda med varandra på alla nivåer i samhället. Engelska har introducerats i Rwanda som en följd av folkmordet i 1994 och återkomsten av den nya politiska maktelit som kom tillbaka till landet efter långvarig landsflykt i grannländer där engelska är officiellt språk. Engelska, som verkar symbolisera det nya moderna Rwanda, fritt från kolonialt arv, lär man sig genom skolsystemet och språket har fått ytterligare status genom att nyligen bli upphöjt till undervisningsspråk.Huvudstaden Kigali är mitt i en process där den gamla centrumbebyggelsen ersätts av höga och moderna byggnader som även dessa symboliserar det nya Rwanda.  Beslutet att byta ut gatuskyltarna – och även att ändra andra namn – är politiska beslut som påverkar invånarnas identitet och känsla av tillhörighet.Projektet kombinerar utvecklingsforskning, sociolingvistik (forskning om språk och samhälle) och namnforskning. Denna kombination av olika forskningsfält är ny.Mot denna bakgrund har projektet tre delmål:1) att undersöka vilka ideologier som ligger till grund för tidigare namnpraxis och för de val man har gjort för omdöpning av alla gatunamn i Rwanda, samt på vilka nivåer besluten har fattats; 2) att fastställa hur de nya gatuskyltarna påverkar hur människor rör sig i den urbana miljön, undersöka känsla av sammanhållning och tillhörighet bland de kvinnor och män som använder Kigalis gator, samt analysera om myndigheternas beslut ifrågasätts eller accepteras; 3) att synliggöra de medverkandes upplevelser och minnen av platser i det språkliga landskapet genom att utveckla en interaktiv karta (baserad på en OpenStreetMap) där foto och korta texter laddas upp.Den webbaserade kartan kan användas av lärare och studenter i Rwanda, samt vidareutvecklas för lokala organisationer.  Workshops om pedagogik och framtida användningsområden kommer att hållas i samarbete med University of Kigali och University of Rwanda. Genom workshops i Rwanda kommer projektet att medverka till ett ökat forsknings- och pedagogiskt utbyte mellan forskare, lärare och studenter.Den svenska och den rwandiska forskaren som medverkar i projektet, kommer att använda olika metoder och aktiviteter för att fånga projektets tre huvudmål: Arkivforskning och kvalitativ analys av dokument, intervjuer med representanter för staten, fotodokumentation med hjälp av geografiskt informationssystem (GIS), ljudinspelningar av intervjuer och videoinspelningar under vandringar i Kigalis gator, fokusgrupp-diskussioner med kvinnor och män ur olika åldersgrupper och med olik bakgrund, workshops om användning och vidareutveckling av den digitala kartan som tas fram samt om interaktiva metoder.Genom att använda olika ingångar och metoder vill projektet belysa hur politiska beslut om språk spelar en väsentlig roll för individens delaktighet i samhället och för hur samhället utvecklas.  Detta är en aspekt som inte lyfts i rapporter och diskussioner om utveckling i låginkomstländer.När språk blir en faktor som antingen inkluderar eller exkluderar, beroende på utbildningsnivå eller socio-ekonomiska status, måste detta lyftas fram i utvecklingsdebatten.

Extensive research shows that Black Soldier Fly (BSF) farming can convert organic waste into high-quality, low-cost livestock feed or organic fertilizers for agricultural production. There are many benefits of local feed and fertilizer production, especially in low-income countries dependent on local agriculture. In Benin, BSF farming could alleviate socio-economic and environmental issues by reducing the adverse impacts of inadequate waste management, providing local feed and improving agricultural productivity.This project will evaluate and characterize the products, benefits and risks involved with BSF farming in Benin. Socio-economic impacts of BSF farming and products will also be assessed to ensure viability for farmer´s households. To achieve these goals we will upscale a BSF pilot farm into a full-scale facility in Benin by enabling technology and knowledge exchange with a facility in Sweden. This is a multidisciplinary project addressing challenges related to economic and environmental sustainability lead by a cross-disciplinary team of socio-economists, product innovation specialists and ecologists. This project holds great potential to support sustainable agricultural production and develop a circular economic business opportunity in the waste management sector. Kronisk brist på livsmedelssäkerhet och växande avfallshögar är stora hinder till utveckling, fred och välfärd i Västafrika. Fokus för detta projekt är att bidra till en lösning för dessa stora problem genom att utforska potentialen av en innovativ avfallkomposteringslösning som baseras på uppfödning av den tropiska insekten den Amerikanska vapenflugan (Hermetia illucens L.) i Benin.Benin har en av den högsta befolkningstillväxttakten i världen, samtidigt som tillgången till livsmedel.  Den ojämna och opålitliga produktiviteten i jordbruket leder till stor livsmedelsosäkerhet, vilket delvis beror på brist på hållbara och billiga foder till produktion av höns, grisar och fisk, delvis på låg jordbördighet som beror på brist på tillgång till gödselmedel för att berika jordarna. Den befolkningstillväxten leder också till ökad mängd avfall, som leder till miljöförstöring.I Benin driver nästa alla småbrukare djurproduktion, trots att kvalitetsdjurfoder är för dyra i regionen. Istället används alternativa, lågkvalitetsfoder som påverkar kvaliteten på det producerade köttet, fisken och äggen, och i slutändan ökar hushållens utsatthet för livsmedelsosäkerhet. Detta beror på att otjänligt djurfoder leder till lägre omvandling av djurfoder till djurprotein, således ökar priset på djurfoder. Därtill är 75% av regionens jordar utarmade, medan konstgödsel i Västafrika är för dyrt för att bönder ska ha råd. Ett annat stort problem som redan nämnts är ökningen av organiskt avfall som antingen hamnar på deponi, eller dumpas direkt i miljön. Uppfödning fluglarver kan på ett hållbart vis påverka alla dessa tre problem på samma gång.  Larven av den amerikanska vapenflugan kan kompostera, alltså födas upp på, olika organiska avfallsströmmar och i processen koncentrera högkvalitativt protein i sin biomassa som sedan kan användas som proteinkälla i djurfoder. Den amerikanska vapenflugan är en inhemsk flugart i Benin och forskning pågår för närvarande om deras ekologi på IITA-Benin. För att skala upp den nuvarande flugkolonin till en storskalig flugodling, och för att anpassa teknologin till olika lokala förhållanden så behövs forskning och stöd. Vidare, behöver den sociala acceptansen av denna nya teknologi utvärderas för att lyckas överföra denna teknologi till småbrukare såväl som storskaliga lantbruk. För detta syfte har vi satt ihop en tvärvetenskaplig grupp av experter inom sociologi, lantbruksekonomi, beteendevetenskap, såväl som experter inom flugekologi och fluglarvskompostering i Sverige och Benin, för att driva utvecklingen av fluglarvsteknologin i Västafrika. Syftet med detta projekt är att utvärdera fluglarvskompostering med den amerikanska vapenflugan med avseende på processeffektivitet, produktkvalitet, riskhantering för teknikanpassning av denna teknologi till Benin, som sedan kan tillämpas i andra västafrikanska länder. Vi kommer samtidigt att söka upp intressentmålgrupper, framförallt låginkomstbönder, kvinnor och unga entreprenörer, och utvärdera vilken påverkan implementering av fluglarvsteknologin och framställning av dessa värdefulla produkterna har på socioekonomiska parametrar. Det är värt att notera att majoriteten av småbrukarna i Benin är kvinnor, vilket öppnar för möjligheten att utvärdera hur könsperspektivet kan påverka i en sådan här jordbruksinnovation i Benin och att använda dessa lärdomar för att främja jämställdhet mellan könen. I detta projekt kommer vi att skala upp en småskalig flugkoloni till en fullskalig odlingsanläggning i Benin genom att överföra teknik-, och kunskapsöverföring från en världsledande forskningsanläggning i Sverige. Detta projekt har stor potential att öka hållbar produktivitet i lantbruket och presenterar könsneutrala cirkulärekonomiska affärsmöjligheter i Benin.

Despite this interest, health systems reforms implemented in Latin America since the late 1990s marginalize CHWs as key actors within the primary health care systems of the region.Thus, the overall purpose of the present project is two-fold: i) to conduct research to map the current situation of the CHWs and to explore the role they could play to strengthen UHC in Bolivia and Ecuador; and ii) to create a health systems research network aiming capacity building and regional collaboration.This will be done through the development of a collaborative partnership mainly between researchers at the San Simón University, Cochabamba, Bolivia, the University of San Francisco of Quito, Ecuador and the Department of Epidemiology and Global Health at Umeå University.The research project will be carried out over the course of two years with a series of: i) between-country activities: three workshops in Bolivia and Ecuador to plan and critically discuss the research objectives, and generate ideas for future projects; ii) within-country activities to collect and analyse data for the CHWs studies.We believe that investment in CHWs can strengthen health systems, accelerate Universal Health Coverage and as consequence contribute to poverty reduction in the participating countries. Byhälsoarbetare eller ”Community Health Workers” (CHW), som tillhandahåller vissa grundläggande hälsovårdstjänster till de egna lokal samhällena är ett koncept som har funnits i låg- och medelinkomstländer (LMIC) i mer än 50 år. Ett förnyat intresse för CHW-program i många LMIC uppkom under 2000-talet på grund av millennieummålen, med fokis på mödra- och barnhälsovård, samt kontroll av infektionssjukdomar. CHW-program har också presenterats som en viktig del i att uppnå allmän hälso- och sjukvård (Universal Health Coverage (UHC)). Trots detta intresse globalt, så marginaliserades CHW-program i många latinamerikanska länder. Hälso- och sjukvårdsreformer som genomförts i Latinamerika har sedan slutet av 1990-talet uteslutit CHW, med några få undantag, som nyckelaktörer inom regionens primärvårdssystem. Vi tror att denna paradoxala trend, där Latinamerika blev ett exempel för världen under 1980- och tidigt 1990-talet när det gäller att prioritera CHW-program för att sedan marginalisera dem kräver ett djupare utforskande för att öka förståelsen för processen. Bolivia och Ecuador representerar länder där denna paradox kan studeras för att ge en grund för att gå vidare med primärvårdsreformer och UHC-agendan i Latinamerika.Det övergripande syftet med detta nätverk är att stärka forskningskapaciteten och kompetensen inom området hälsopolitik- och systemforskning, med särskilt fokus på Community Health Workers i Bolivia och Ecuador. På detta sätt kommer projektet att bidra till uppbyggnaden av starka hälsosystem som kan svara på behoven hos de mest utsatta befolkningarna i den latinamerikanska kontexten. Detta kommer att uppnås genom en kombination av två sammanvävda mål:1. ForskningsmålAtt kartlägga aktuell status för CHW-programmen i båda länderna;Att utforska perspektiven hos viktiga politiska aktörer inom hälsovårdsministeriet och icke-statliga organisationer (NGOs) när det gäller CHW:s roll i respektive hälsosystem. 2. Kapacitetsuppbyggnad och samarbetsmålAtt skapa ett koordinerat forskningsnätverk för hälsosystemforskning med förmåga att identifiera forskningsbehov inom CHW-program och lokala hälsosystem.Att bygga individuell och institutionell kapacitet inom hälsopolitik- och systemforskning för att stärka den nationella forskningskapaciteten.Att underlätta länkar till ett bredare nätverk av latinamerikanska forskare inom hälsopolitik- och systemforskning.Detta kommer att ske genom skapandet av nätverksaktiviteter främst mellan forskare vid San Simón University (SSU) i Cochabamba, Bolivia, University of San Francisco of Quito (USFQ), Ecuador och Institutionen för epidemiologi och global hälsa (EpiGH) vid Umeå universitet. Projektet kommer också att dra nytta av att länka till universitetet i Bergen och det omfattande nätverk av forskare inom hälso- och sjukvården som kommer att ingå i det Norad-finansierade Norhed II-projekt “Strengthening Agency & Learning Across Health Systems in the Americas” (SALHSA) som kommer att starta upp under 2021.Detta projekt kommer att genomföras under två år med en serie av aktiviteter: i) inklusive tre workshops i Bolivia och Ecuador för att planera studierna, länka forskare, kritiskt diskutera resultaten och generera idéer för framtida projekt; och ii) aktiviteter inom länderna för att samla in och analysera data för respektive landsstudie.Tre viktiga inbördes relaterade strategier kommer att tillämpas under dessa aktiviteter: i) ömsesidigt lärande och kapacitetsuppbyggnad; ii) utrymme för aktiv dialog mellan olika aktörer inom hälsosystemen och iii) skapande av kunskapsnoder.Forskningen och nätverk som utvecklats genom detta samarbete kommer att ge användbar kunskap för att stärka UHC i dessa två länder och samt framtida hälsoreformer nationellt och i andra liknande kontexter. Vi tror att en återinvestering i CHW-program i dessa länder kan stärka hälso- och sjukvårdssystemen, påskynda UHC och därmed bidra till fattigdomsbekämpningen.

Conventional explanations point to national interests that drive actors in the Middle East to project their power into the Horn of Africa--a view that casts African actors as mere spectators in a geopolitical game. Instead, this project´s point of departure is that Middle Eastern and African actors are co-designers of their relations. Building upon the field of critical geopolitics, we suggest that political interaction between states are not merely driven by given (geopolitical and geoeconomic) interests but rely on the establishment of a common ideational ground. Those “geocultural” narratives build, for example, on the construction of shared pasts or joint futures. Hence, the project asks: How are the narratives that inform the political, economic and social interation across the Red Sea negotiated, established and justified? Exploring three cases of intense engagement, namely (i) peace and security, (ii) infrastructure and (iii) labour migration, this project aims at rendering visible the formation and settling of narratives that constitute the common ground on which new political formations are built in the region. Det regionala samarbetet i Rödahavsregionen, mellan länder på Afrikas horn och länder i Mellanöstern har expanderat betydligt och tagit nya former under de senaste åren. Vi ser en kraftig ökning av investeringar från länder i Mellanöstern, bland annat i storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt som till exempel längs den strategiskt placerade Bab-el-Mandeb-sträckan. Ett stort antal militärbaser har etablerats på Afrikas horn, till exempel av Saudi Arabien och Turkiet i Djibouti och Somalia. Vidare har Gulfstater agerat medlare i långvariga konflikter mellan afrikanska stater, som till exempel i fredsförhandlingarna mellan Etiopien och Eritrea. Lägg därtill den omfattande arbetskraftinvandringen från Etiopien och andra afrikanska länder till framför allt Qatar, Förenade Arabemiraten, Saudi Arabien och Libanon. Följande projekt ställer sig frågan hur vi ska förstå dessa geopolitiska förändringar. Handlar det om ännu ett geopolitiskt spel där rivaliserande stater kämpar om makt och inflytande, inte minst militärt och ekonomiskt? Har staterna på Afrikas horn enbart blivit en bricka i den pågående regionala maktkampen i Mellanöstern?Följande projekt förhåller sig kritiskt till rådande geopolitiska antagande om orsakerna till den regionala utvecklingen i Rödahavsregionen. Istället antar projektet en kritiskt geopolitisk utgångspunkt som betonar historiska och kulturella band och identitet som viktiga faktorer för att förstå utveckling och samarbete mellan stater och regioner. En utgångspunkt inom kritisk geopolitik är att ifrågasätta och undersöka hegemoniska staters makt och inflytande och deras möjlighet att styra den geopolitiska utvecklingen. Ansatsen är kritisk till att behandla ”mottagande” stater, till exempel staterna på Afrikas horn, som passiva aktörer. Istället betonar ansatsen nödvändigheten att ta hänsyn till kontexten, de lokala och regionala förhållandena, och de olika aktörernas, i detta fall, afrikanska staternas, möjlighet till agens, handlingsutrymme och påverkan, vid sidan av staterna i Mellanöstern. Projektets syfte är att undersöka berättelser, så kallade narrativer, om regionalt samspel och utveckling i Rödahavsregionen. Narrativer konstruerar en verklighetsbild genom att peka på nutida och historiska skeenden, orsaker och framtida implikationer. Berättelserna är avgörande för att överenskommelser ska ta form, förhandlas fram och legitimeras. Geopolitiska ställningstagande, uttryckta i narrativer, är inte uteslutande etablerade på formella politiska arenor, utan tar även form och utvecklas på arenor som utmärks av experter, affärsmän, media och populärkulturen. Projektet avser undersöka hur berättelser konsolideras och/eller marginaliseras på olika arenor för att nå en fördjupad förståelse av den mångsidiga och dynamiska utvecklingen i regionen. Projektets huvudfrågeställning är: Hur förhandlas, förankras och legitimeras olika berättelser om regionalt samarbete i Rödahavsregionen? Empiriskt genererar projektet ny kunskap om den omvälvande utvecklingen i Rödahavsregionen, en hitintills förbisedd region i forskning och policystudier. Teoretiskt bidrar projektet med ny kunskap då det vidareutvecklar den kritiska geopolitiska teoribildningen genom ett tydligare fokus på historiska och idémässiga förklaringsfaktorer samt genom att visa på hur en mångfald aktörer förhandlar fram och legitimerar geopolitiska idébärande berättelser på olika arenor i samhället. Policyrelevansen är tydligt kopplad till frågor om fred och säkerhet, migration, jämställdhet, mänskliga rättigheter och ekonomisk utveckling i Rödahavsregionen.Metodologiskt fokuserar projektet på tre arenor och tre fall. De tre fallen är; fred och säkerhet, infrastruktur och migration. De tre arenorna där narrativen studeras utgörs av den formella arenan (regeringsuttalanden, avtal etc.), praktiska arenan (policydokument, expertrapporter etc.) och den populära arenan (offentliga tillställningar, bloggar etc.).

Det regionala samarbetet i Rödahavsregionen, mellan länder på Afrikas horn och länder i Mellanöstern har expanderat betydligt och tagit nya former under de senaste åren.

Istället antar projektet en kritiskt geopolitisk utgångspunkt som betonar historiska och kulturella band och identitet som viktiga faktorer för att förstå utveckling och samarbete mellan stater och regioner. En utgångspunkt inom kritisk geopolitik är att ifrågasätta och undersöka hegemoniska staters makt och inflytande och deras möjlighet att styra den geopolitiska utvecklingen.

Resilient health systems can adapt their health services in response to shocks like COVID-19. Resilience is closely linked to community trust and the interactions between actors in the system. However, very little is known about the ways in which the private, for-profit health services sectors contributes to the health system’s ability to manage resilience. By studying the Zambian health system during COVID, the project aims to better understand how the private, for-profit health services sector contributes to the health system’s capacity to manage resilience during shocks. During COVID, changes in service delivery in public and private health facilities will be identified and explored using facility data and semi-structured interviews. A social network analysis and stakeholder interviews will assess interactions between private and public health service actors. Focus group discussions and interviews with community members will be used to understand trust in the private compared to public health services. Exploring the private sector’s role in resilience will help to improve interdependence among health system sectors and strengthen the community’s trust and ownership in the system, ultimately building resilience for future shocks.

Separationsprocesser med membranfiltrering har blivit en generellt erkänd nyckelteknologi för att bemöta globala vattenbehovsutmaningar. För låg- och medelinkomstländer har implementeringen av denna teknik  inneburit höga kostnader vilket har resulterat i att dessa länder har en ineffektiv avloppsvattenrening och vattenåterförsel. Syftet med detta projekt är därför att utveckla ett nytt lågkostnadsmembran specifikt utformat för behandling av avloppsvatten från textilindustrin, vilken är en nyckelindustri för många låg och medelinkomstländer med hög vattenkonsumtion, och därmed mycket förorenat avloppsvatten som ofta släpps rakt ut i naturen utan någon rening. Målet med detta projekt är därför att använda ett nytt och billigt membran för att rena och, om möjligt, återföra avloppsvattnet och på så sätt minska vattenåtgången för textilindustrin i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Detta projekt kommer därmed att bidra till FN:s globala mål för hållbar utveckling 6 (rent vatten och sanitet för alla) och 12 (hållbar konsumtion och produktion). Dessutom kommer både unga som erfarna, manliga och kvinnliga forskare vara involverade i projektet, vilket även bidrar till det globala målet 5 (jämställdhet). Detta tvååriga projekt är ett samarbete mellan forskare i Egypten, Indien och Sverige med kompletterande expertisområden inom forskning och utveckling med membranteknik, vattenresurshantering och avloppsvattenrening. The Chemical Engineering Department på National Research Centre (NRC) i Kairo kommer att framställa kompositbaserade membran, innehållande polyesterbaserade material med polyakrylnitril och polysulfon som huvudpolymerer, och med delvis inblandade nanomaterial med antibakteriella egenskaper så som zink, titan eller järn för att minska den organiska påväxten och igensättningen av membranen. Dessa membran kommer därefter bli ytbehandlade av School of Chemical Sciences & School of Energy Materials och The International & Inter University of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology  på Mahatma Gandhi Universitetet (MGU) i Kottayam Kerala (Indien). Både kemiska och fysikaliska metoder (plasma, gamma och elektronstrålning) kommer att nyttjas för att modifiera membranytan. Därefter kommer både ytmodifierade, och ej modifierande membran att testas och utvärderas på Institutionen för Kemiteknik på Lunds Universitet (LU) med avseende på deras egenskaper för påväxt, rengöring och återhämtning. I nästkommande steg kommer välfungerande och högpresterande kandidater bland de testade membranen att skalas upp i pilotskala på NRC:s facilitet, för att tillverka tillräckligt mycket material för spiralmoduler. Dessa spiralmoduler kommer att testas på riktiga avloppsvatten ifrån textilfabriker i Egypten och Indien. Under pilotförsöken kommer membranens prestanda kontrolleras och utvärderas, samt processbetingelserna kommer att optimeras med avseende på påväxt och rengöring vilket kan ha en betydande påverkan på den totala hållbarheten av membranprocessen. Resultaten ifrån membranproduktionen och pilotförsöken kommer sedan att utvärderas i en teknoekonomisk analys, i samverkan med alla projektpartners. Resultaten kommer slutligen att presenteras för lokala slutanvändare och/eller förmånstagare i Egypten och Indien för att uppmärksamma och skapa medvetenhet för denna typ av potentiell lösning. Detta projekt kommer därmed att bidra till lokala lösningar för problem i en av de stora utmaningarna inom avloppsvattenrening för låg och medelinkomstländer.

Syftet med detta projekt är därför att utveckla ett nytt lågkostnadsmembran specifikt utformat för behandling av avloppsvatten från textilindustrin, vilken är en nyckelindustri för många låg och medelinkomstländer med hög vattenkonsumtion, och därmed mycket förorenat avloppsvatten som ofta släpps rakt ut i naturen utan någon rening. Målet med detta projekt är därför att använda ett nytt och billigt membran för att rena och, om möjligt, återföra avloppsvattnet och på så sätt minska vattenåtgången för textilindustrin i låg- och medelinkomstländer. Detta projekt kommer därmed att bidra till FN:s globala mål för hållbar utveckling 6 (rent vatten och sanitet för alla) och 12 (hållbar konsumtion och produktion). Dessutom kommer både unga som erfarna, manliga och kvinnliga forskare vara involverade i projektet, vilket även bidrar till det globala målet 5 (jämställdhet). Detta tvååriga projekt är ett samarbete mellan forskare i Egypten, Indien och Sverige med kompletterande expertisområden inom forskning och utveckling med membranteknik, vattenresurshantering och avloppsvattenrening. The Chemical Engineering Department på National Research Centre (NRC) i Kairo kommer att framställa kompositbaserade membran, innehållande polyesterbaserade material med polyakrylnitril och polysulfon som huvudpolymerer, och med delvis inblandade nanomaterial med antibakteriella egenskaper så som zink, titan eller järn för att minska den organiska påväxten och igensättningen av membranen. Dessa membran kommer därefter bli ytbehandlade av School of Chemical Sciences & School of Energy Materials och The International & Inter University of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology  på Mahatma Gandhi Universitetet (MGU) i Kottayam Kerala (Indien). Både kemiska och fysikaliska metoder (plasma, gamma och elektronstrålning) kommer att nyttjas för att modifiera membranytan. Därefter kommer både ytmodifierade, och ej modifierande membran att testas och utvärderas på Institutionen för Kemiteknik på Lunds Universitet (LU) med avseende på deras egenskaper för påväxt, rengöring och återhämtning. I nästkommande steg kommer välfungerande och högpresterande kandidater bland de testade membranen att skalas upp i pilotskala på NRC:s facilitet, för att tillverka tillräckligt mycket material för spiralmoduler. Dessa spiralmoduler kommer att testas på riktiga avloppsvatten ifrån textilfabriker i Egypten och Indien. Under pilotförsöken kommer membranens prestanda kontrolleras och utvärderas, samt processbetingelserna kommer att optimeras med avseende på påväxt och rengöring vilket kan ha en betydande påverkan på den totala hållbarheten av membranprocessen. Resultaten ifrån membranproduktionen och pilotförsöken kommer sedan att utvärderas i en teknoekonomisk analys, i samverkan med alla projektpartners. Resultaten kommer slutligen att presenteras för lokala slutanvändare och/eller förmånstagare i Egypten och Indien för att uppmärksamma och skapa medvetenhet för denna typ av potentiell lösning. Detta projekt kommer därmed att bidra till lokala lösningar för problem i en av de stora utmaningarna inom avloppsvattenrening för låg och medelinkomstländer.

This research, in a Swedish-Palestinian collaboration, aims at answering three main questions: i) what are digital rights in the Palestinian context? ii) How could the Palestinian basic law be used as an instrument to constitutionally protect digital rights? iii) What is the role of the Palestinian Supreme Constitutional Court in protecting digital rights within its main interpretative function?The questions pay a great attention to legal and political challenges surrounding the situation in relation to sustainable development goals 5: Achieve gender equality, and 16: Build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions. This topic has not been explored at the Palestinian level yet, where an urgent need emerges to fill the gaps in knowledge and provide for a comprehensive research on constitutionalism of digital rights. In doing so, a series of workshops, discussions, applications for grants, research stays for a joint and long-term collaboration will take place.This collaboration will be implemented in two years and will result in scientific publications. It contributes to building of scholarly capacities, conducting proper examination of digital rights protection at the constitutional level, and learning from identified best practice on the subject. The project has a great potential in contributing to the Swedish policy for sustainability in Palestine. Detta projekt syftar till att etablera ett palestinskt-svenskt tvärvetenskapligt forskningsnätverk relaterat till konstitutionella digitala rättigheter i Palestina. Nätverket kommer att undersöka skyddet av digitala rättigheter i Palestina och vilken roll den palestinska Högsta Konstitutionella Domstolen spelar I ljuset av grundlagen (konstitutionen). Projektet kommer att identifiera implikationerna av inskränkningar av digitala teknologier för mänskliga rättigheter, genom att studera tre områden: 1) digitala rättigheter i den palestinska kontexten; 2) användandet av grundlagen som ett instrument för att genom konstitutionen försvara digitala rättigheter, och 3) den roll Högsta Domstolen spelar för att skydda digitala rättigheter med det huvudsakliga syftet att tolka lagen. Samarbetet och forskarnätverket är unikt och originellt i sitt syfte och i utforskandet av ett område av fundamental vikt i den juridiska utvecklingen. De tre huvudsakliga aktörerna i detta nätverk är: i) Juridiska institutionen vid Örebro universitet, ii) Institutionen för globala studier vid Göteborgs universitet och iii) Instituionen för juridik och statsvetenskap vid Hebrons universitet i Palestina. Genom gemensamma aktiviteter och samförfattade publikationer är visionen att detta projekt innebär en unik möjlighet för att skapa ett fungerande och hållbart forskarnätverk och kunskapsutbyte. Projektet kommer att bidra till kunskap om hur digitala rättigheter i Palestina kan skyddas och hur Högsta Domstolen kan tolka grundlagen. Syftet är att stärka kunskapen om digitala rättigheter i Palestina i en tid där många stater inte minst i Arabvärlden på olika sätt inskränker möjligheter till användning av internet och digitala plattformar i en generell och global tendens av krympande utrymme för demokratiska krafter. De sökande förutser att detta nätverk kan ha betydelse för att främja konstitutionella förbättringar och förändringar i Palestina. Nätverket är också relevant för de globala hållbarhetsmålen. Särskilt mål 16 som syftar till att främja fredliga och inkluderande samhällen genom att bygga effektiva, ansvarstagande och inkluerande institutioner på alla nivåer. Ett starkt och trovärdigt rättssystem bidrar till att främja, förbättra och utveckla respekt för digitala mänskliga rättigheter. I tillägg ges uppmärksamhet till mål 5, Jämställdhet, i relation till bildandet av den palestinska Högsta Domstolen. Alla domare vid Högsta Domstolen är hittills män, vilket understryker vikten av att inkludera ett jämställdhetsperspektiv. Samarbetet kommer att implementeras under en två-årsperiod genom en serie av workshops, kortare forskningsvistelser och gemensamma forskningsansökningar med syfte att etablera ett långsiktigt och hållbart forskningssamarbete. Samverkan inkluderar forskare från olika discipliner och bakgrund och baseras på principer om ömsesidig nytta. Nätverkets etablering stämmer väl överens med Sveriges internationella utvecklingsagenda samt samarbete med och bistånd till Palestina och kan bidra till kapacitetsuppbyggnad i det palestinska rättssystemet liksom ett stärkande av Hebrons universitet.

The government of Tanzania has since 2017 further transferred authority to plan, budget and manage financial resources to the health facilities. Health facility governing committees (HFGCs) have therefore got a pivotal role in ensuring social accountability. While HFGCs serve as bridges between health facilities and their communities, efforts need to be made to reinforce their capacity. This project therefore aims to understand if, how, and under what conditions informed and competent (HFGC) improve social accountability. This will be achieved by using a participatory approach to realist evaluation, engaging members of the HFGCs, health managers and providers and community leaders to: 1) map challenges and opportunities of the current reform; 2) develop an initial programme theory that proposes a plan to strengthen the role of the HFGCs; 3) test the programme theory by developing a plan of actions; 4) refine the programme theory through multiple cycles of participatory learning and finally 5) propose a set of recommendations to guide processes to strengthen social accountability in the Tanzanian health system. This project is part of an ongoing strong collaboration between University of Dar es Saalam, and Umeå University providing true opportunities for action learning and close interactions between researchers, decision makers and practitioners. Social ansvarsskyldighet avser civilsamhällets och medborgarnas förmåga att hålla offentliga tjänstemän och myndigheter ansvariga för tillhandahållande av tjänster, inklusive hälso- och sjukvård. Social ansvarsskyldighet har framstått som ett viktigt medel för att stärka samhällsdeltagande och system, och som en nyckellänk mellan medborgare och tillhandahållande av offentliga tjänster. Specifikt inom hälso- och sjukvårdssystem har social ansvarsskyldighet snabbt blivit accepterad som ett sätt att ta itu med hälsosystemens ineffektivitet och förbättra grundläggande servicenivå, och därigenom att bidra till att uppnå allmän hälso- och sjukvård.Tanzanias regering har sedan 2017 ytterligare överfört makt, autonomi och auktoritet för att planera, budgetera och hantera de finansiella resurserna i lokala vårdinrättningar. Lokala kommittéer som till största delen består av representanter av lokalsamhället, de så kallade ”Health Facility Governing Committees” (HGFCs) har numera en central roll när det gäller att säkerställa social ansvarsskyldighet inom det tanzaniska hälsosystemet.Det övergripande syftet med forskningsprojektet är att förstå om, hur och under vilka förhållanden informerade och kompetenta HGFCs stärker socialt ansvarsskyldighet.Syftet kommer att uppnås med hjälp av deltagande metoder (soft systems methodology) för att engagera berörda (medlemmar av HFGC, managers, hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal, lokala ledare) att: 1) kartlägga och analysera utmaningar och möjligheter med den pågående decentraliseringsreformen; 2) utveckla en orsaksteori som föreslår en plan för att stärka HFGC i linje med de roller som beskrivs i den nuvarande policyn; 3) testa orsaksteorin genom att utveckla en handlingsplan; 4) förfina orsaksteorin genom flera cykler av deltagande lärande och slutligen 5) föreslå rekommendationer för att styra processer och åtgärder för att stärka den sociala ansvarsskyldigheten i det tanzaniska hälsosystemet.Detta forskningsprojekt kommer att anta en samhällsbaserad deltagardriven realistisk utvärdering. Detta tillvägagångssätt är relevant eftersom social ansvarsskyldighet genom HFGCs arbete innefattar flera aktörer inom hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet samt det lokala samhället.Denna forskning bygger vidare på ett pågående forskningsprojekt, finansierat av MRC (UK), mellan University of Dar es Salaam, Hälsoministeriet (Regional Administration and Local Government (PORALG)) i Tanzania och Umeå universitet i Sverige som syftar till att bättre förstå hur och om decentraliserade lokala myndigheter använder möjligheter med decentraliseringen för att stärka hälsosystemet. Preliminära resultat av vårt forskningssamarbete visar att vårdinrättningar (sjukhus, vårdcentraler och apotek) nu har fått ett stort beslutsutrymme för att identifiera prioriteringar, planering, budgetering och hantering av ekonomiska resurser. Det finns dock uppenbara variationer och utmaningar när det gäller att utnyttja det ökade beslutsutrymmen och stärka ansvarsskyldigheten. Vår forskning pekar på behovet av att diskutera och engagera de inblandade för att reflektera över det ramverk inom vilket HFGC agerar, inklusive kommittéernas roller, funktioner och styrning för att stärka deras roll.Studien kommer att bidra till att fylla kunskapsluckan om vilka mekanismer som främjar social ansvarsskyldighet i lokala hälsosystem. Kunskap inom detta område är avgörande för för att effektivt stärka HFGCs i Tanzania och liknande kontexter.

The government of Tanzania has since 2017 further transferred authority to plan, budget and manage financial resources to the health facilities. Health facility governing committees (HFGCs) have therefore got a pivotal role in ensuring social accountability. While HFGCs serve as bridges between health facilities and their communities, efforts need to be made to reinforce their capacity. This project therefore aims to understand if, how, and under what conditions informed and competent (HFGC) improve social accountability. This will be achieved by using a participatory approach to realist evaluation, engaging members of the HFGCs, health managers and providers and community leaders to: 1) map challenges and opportunities of the current reform; 2) develop an initial programme theory that proposes a plan to strengthen the role of the HFGCs; 3) test the programme theory by developing a plan of actions; 4) refine the programme theory through multiple cycles of participatory learning and finally 5) propose a set of recommendations to guide processes to strengthen social accountability in the Tanzanian health system. This project is part of an ongoing strong collaboration between University of Dar es Saalam, and Umeå University providing true opportunities for action learning and close interactions between researchers, decision makers and practitioners. Social ansvarsskyldighet avser civilsamhällets och medborgarnas förmåga att hålla offentliga tjänstemän och myndigheter ansvariga för tillhandahållande av tjänster, inklusive hälso- och sjukvård. Social ansvarsskyldighet har framstått som ett viktigt medel för att stärka samhällsdeltagande och system, och som en nyckellänk mellan medborgare och tillhandahållande av offentliga tjänster. Specifikt inom hälso- och sjukvårdssystem har social ansvarsskyldighet snabbt blivit accepterad som ett sätt att ta itu med hälsosystemens ineffektivitet och förbättra grundläggande servicenivå, och därigenom att bidra till att uppnå allmän hälso- och sjukvård.Tanzanias regering har sedan 2017 ytterligare överfört makt, autonomi och auktoritet för att planera, budgetera och hantera de finansiella resurserna i lokala vårdinrättningar. Lokala kommittéer som till största delen består av representanter av lokalsamhället, de så kallade ”Health Facility Governing Committees” (HGFCs) har numera en central roll när det gäller att säkerställa social ansvarsskyldighet inom det tanzaniska hälsosystemet.Det övergripande syftet med forskningsprojektet är att förstå om, hur och under vilka förhållanden informerade och kompetenta HGFCs stärker socialt ansvarsskyldighet.Syftet kommer att uppnås med hjälp av deltagande metoder (soft systems methodology) för att engagera berörda (medlemmar av HFGC, managers, hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal, lokala ledare) att: 1) kartlägga och analysera utmaningar och möjligheter med den pågående decentraliseringsreformen; 2) utveckla en orsaksteori som föreslår en plan för att stärka HFGC i linje med de roller som beskrivs i den nuvarande policyn; 3) testa orsaksteorin genom att utveckla en handlingsplan; 4) förfina orsaksteorin genom flera cykler av deltagande lärande och slutligen 5) föreslå rekommendationer för att styra processer och åtgärder för att stärka den sociala ansvarsskyldigheten i det tanzaniska hälsosystemet.Detta forskningsprojekt kommer att anta en samhällsbaserad deltagardriven realistisk utvärdering. Detta tillvägagångssätt är relevant eftersom social ansvarsskyldighet genom HFGCs arbete innefattar flera aktörer inom hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet samt det lokala samhället.Denna forskning bygger vidare på ett pågående forskningsprojekt, finansierat av MRC (UK), mellan University of Dar es Salaam, Hälsoministeriet (Regional Administration and Local Government (PORALG)) i Tanzania och Umeå universitet i Sverige som syftar till att bättre förstå hur och om decentraliserade lokala myndigheter använder möjligheter med decentraliseringen för att stärka hälsosystemet. Preliminära resultat av vårt forskningssamarbete visar att vårdinrättningar (sjukhus, vårdcentraler och apotek) nu har fått ett stort beslutsutrymme för att identifiera prioriteringar, planering, budgetering och hantering av ekonomiska resurser. Det finns dock uppenbara variationer och utmaningar när det gäller att utnyttja det ökade beslutsutrymmen och stärka ansvarsskyldigheten. Vår forskning pekar på behovet av att diskutera och engagera de inblandade för att reflektera över det ramverk inom vilket HFGC agerar, inklusive kommittéernas roller, funktioner och styrning för att stärka deras roll.Studien kommer att bidra till att fylla kunskapsluckan om vilka mekanismer som främjar social ansvarsskyldighet i lokala hälsosystem. Kunskap inom detta område är avgörande för för att effektivt stärka HFGCs i Tanzania och liknande kontexter.

An estimated 500 million ha are affected and in some areas the land is left fallow with severe economic consequences. Farmers are no longer capable of feeding their families and are forced to migrate to cities where they often end up in slums.The major aim of this project is to turn saline soil into productive soil. Initially we have focused on Bangladesh. Starting from one of their best salt tolerant local Bangladesh wheat variety BARI Gom-25, we increased the genetic variation by Ethyl Methane Sulphonate. From the mutated population we screened ca 2000 lines for increased salt tolerance in a laboratory assay and identified 70 lines with high salt tolerance (~20 dS/m).During the winter season (2017/18) we performed the first field trial on saline land (~10 dS/m) in Southern Bangladesh with these lines. The trial showed very promising results. All tested lines, including BARI Gom-25, were ranked in a blind test by a local farmer and our 70 lines were placed on the 70 first places! We have continued with different tests and are down to ca five extra ordinary salt tolerant lines to be used in this project. For transfer of knowledge (both ways) we collaborate with ICCO (NGO) for trials with farmers, Lal Teer Seed Ltd for controlled drip irrigation tests, and HST University for salt stress marker identification and capacity building. We plan to get seeds approved on the national seed notification list to fight hunger and poverty. I kustnära och lågliggande områden orsakar stigande havsnivåer och konstbevattning med havsvatten (påtvingat pga brist på sötvatten) en tillströmning av saltvatten, vilket påverkar både jordbruksmarken och grundvattnet negativt. Denna negativa utveckling utgör ett reellt och ökande hot för matproduktionen i många utvecklingsländer – däribland Bangladesh. När samtidigt världens befolkning ökar och hela jordbruket behöver genomgå en förbättrad effektivitet för att både minska dess klimatpåverkan och öka produktionen, innebär detta att vi behöver använda den mark som fortfarande inte är påverkad av ökad salthalt på ett mycket effektivare sätt. Vi behöver dessutom förhindra en ökad försaltning av nuvarande jordbruksmark och samtidigt återanvända redan förstörd mark. Detta är en oerhörd utmaning och kräver innovativa tankesätt och nya lösningar som hållbart kan säkra såväl jordbrukseffektiviteten som grundvattenkvaliteten. Som en viktig del i denna utmaning ligger det att ta fram salttoleranta utsäden som kan användas i praktisk odling. Salthaltiga jordar där det inte längre går att bedriva ett effektivt jordbruk utgör f.n. ca. 7% av jordens odlingsbara mark och arealerna ökar. Ca 500 miljoner hektar (30%) är så saltpåverkade att de påverkar utbytet i odlingarna. Skrämmande siffror! Detta gäller i hög grad matväxter (cash crops) som t.ex. vete och ris som är extra känsliga för salt. Vi har m.h.a Inclusive Business Sweden gjort en extern genomlysning av hur stor den potentiella marknaden är där vi aktivt skulle kunna deltaga för att komma till rätta med problemet. Analysen baserades bl.a på importerad vetemängd i respektive land, saltkontaminerad odlingsareal, forsknings- och utvecklingsinfrastruktur, kapacitet att producera/distribuera utsäde samt politisk stabilitet. Utifrån dessa kriterier kom Bangladesh, Egypten, Kenya, Algeriet och Indien fram som de mest intressanta länderna i vår analys. Enbart i Bangladesh, ett av världens fattigaste länder där över 70 miljoner människor lever i extrem fattigdom, utgörs över 1 miljon ha av salthaltiga marker (motsvarar ca 40% av Sveriges nuvarande odlingsareal), dvs. det finns en enorm potential att använda stora och outnyttjade arealer för t.ex. veteodling. Genom att utnyttja modern, molekylärt baserad förädlingsteknologi kan vi få fram nya, salttoleranta, lokalt anpassade sorter på ett snabbare och precisare sätt än tidigare. Principen är att öka variationen i en speciellt utvald vetepopulation genom väl beprövad mutationsmetodik som ger samma typ av mutationer i DNA molekylen som de som sker naturligt i cellen. Enligt gällande lagstiftning definieras växter med denna typ av genmodifiering inte som GM (dvs. gentekniskt modifierade). Detta ger en stor praktisk fördel eftersom vi då slipper den dåliga acceptans och negative propaganda som råder kring GM växter fr.a. från olika miljöorganisationer. Dessutom slipper vi fördyrande och tidskrävande tester på de färdiga växterna som krävs i GM-fallet, vilket markant förlänger tiden till marknad. Genom att utveckla avancerade biokemiska och molekylära selektionsmetoder kan vi nu istället välja ut (selektera) växtindivider med önskvärda egenskaper ur vår muterade population, och detta med en mycket stor precision. Genom att rikta selektionen direkt till ett praktiskt behov d.v.s. i detta fall till att återutnyttja och t.o.m. återställa salthaltiga jordar för odling av en produkt som efterfrågas på marknaden, skapas starka humanitära och miljömässiga drivkrafter i projektet förutom den stora ekonomiska potential som redan finns.

The country is believed to have the largest livestock population in Africa - 53 million cattle, 26 million sheep, and 22 million goats, which contribute immensely to the national economy and food security. However, the resource cannot be utilized efficiently due to many problems, among which a number of important diseases of ruminants that reduce their productivity are of paramount importance. About one-half of all lambs born in the country die due to various causes. Diarrhoea is a leading health problem of ruminants, especially the young stock, causing huge economic loss and affecting food safety and security. The incidence of diarrhoea in calves under 30 days of age varies between 10% and 20%; the disease accounts for about 75% of all the mortality of dairy calves less than three weeks of age. It is obvious that infectious agents, especially in young animals, cause severe diarrhoea that may lead to the death of the animals. The overall purpose of this project is to determine what types of infectious agents, in particular viruses and bacteria, but also protozoa that circulate in Ethiopia for the ultimate goal to put in suitable counter measures to prevent diarrhoea in young ruminant and improve animal health and as a consequence this will lead to more food and improve human health, both directly and indirectly, and economy. Diarrésjukdomar hos barn är kanske ett av de allvarligaste hälsoproblemen i världen. Detta gäller speciellt för länder i ”tredje världen” där miljoner barn dör av diarrésjukdomar eller lider av allvarlig undernäring som en följd av detta. Detta gäller även i högsta grad husdjuren som hålls av fattiga bönder. Dessa djur lider av liknande sjukdomar och även här är det de unga djuren som drabbas värst och många dör till följd av detta. Som en konsekvens av allt detta leder diarrésjukdomar till hunger och allvarlig undernäring av barn. Etiopien är ett land som ligger strax under Saharaöknen (sub-Saharan), med en befolkning på 100 miljoner människor. Landet lider ofta av torka som gör att människor och djur inte kan få tillräckligt med mat och vatten. Därför räknas Etiopien till ett av de allra fattigaste länderna i världen. Många är beroende av sina husdjur för mat och inkomst, speciellt har många bönder får och getter, men även kor är mycket vanliga. Etiopien räknas att ha den största populationen av får, getter och kor i Afrika och boskapshållning räknas som den viktigaste näringen i landet. Tyvärr är det många problem med denna näring och till exempel dör mängder av djur på grund av smittsamma sjukdomar. Som nämns tidigare anses diarrésjukdomar vara ett av de största problemen. Diarrésjukdomar kan orsakas av en mängd olika typer av mikroorganismer som virus, bakterier och protozoer. Hur dessa smittar varierar och även behandlingen skiljer sig åt, till exempel fungerar inte antibiotika mot virus. Väldigt ofta finns varken vaccin eller andra behandlingsmetoder tillgängliga. Man har aldrig gjort någon ordentlig kartläggning över vilka mikroorganismer som ligger bakom diarrésjukdomar hos boskap i Etiopien. Därför kan man inte heller sätta in lämpliga åtgärder som till exempel vaccination eller lämpliga biosäkerhetsåtgärder. Inte heller har man undersökt om dessa mikroorganismer kan smitta mellan djuren och människorna, och vice versa. Detta projekt har därför målsättningen att kartlägga vilka mikroorganismer som cirkulerar i får, getter och kor med diarré. Vi kommer också undersöka i detalj några virus och bakterier som är av speciellt intresse och följa upp om dessa även finns hos barn med diarré. Dessutom kommer vi använda metoder som kan hitta helt nya mikroorganismer (s.k. metagenomik) och vi kommer även studera dessa nya mikroorganismer i mer detalj. Vi tror nämligen att det finns många ännu ej beskrivna virus/bakterier som orsak till diarrésjukdomar hos idisslarna. När vi sedan har fått en så komplett bild som möjligt kommer vi avsluta projektet med en ”work-shop” där vi delar med oss av denna kunskap till organisationer med ansvar för djur, human hälsa och smittskydd i Etiopien, som i sin tur får inleda korttids- och långtidsåtgärder för att kontrollera och behandla dessa. Allt detta kommer leda till betydligt friskare djur och därmed förbättrad hälsa, reducera hunger och fattigdomen för barnen i Etiopien.

Diarrésjukdomar hos barn är kanske ett av de allvarligaste hälsoproblemen i världen. Detta gäller speciellt för länder i ”tredje världen” där miljoner barn dör av diarrésjukdomar eller lider av allvarlig undernäring som en följd av detta. Detta gäller även i högsta grad husdjuren som hålls av fattiga bönder. Dessa djur lider av liknande sjukdomar och även här är det de unga djuren som drabbas värst och många dör till följd av detta. Som en konsekvens av allt detta leder diarrésjukdomar till hunger och allvarlig undernäring av barn. Etiopien är ett land som ligger strax under Saharaöknen (sub-Saharan), med en befolkning på 100 miljoner människor. Landet lider ofta av torka som gör att människor och djur inte kan få tillräckligt med mat och vatten. Därför räknas Etiopien till ett av de allra fattigaste länderna i världen. Många är beroende av sina husdjur för mat och inkomst, speciellt har många bönder får och getter, men även kor är mycket vanliga. Etiopien räknas att ha den största populationen av får, getter och kor i Afrika och boskapshållning räknas som den viktigaste näringen i landet. Tyvärr är det många problem med denna näring och till exempel dör mängder av djur på grund av smittsamma sjukdomar. Som nämns tidigare anses diarrésjukdomar vara ett av de största problemen. Diarrésjukdomar kan orsakas av en mängd olika typer av mikroorganismer som virus, bakterier och protozoer. Hur dessa smittar varierar och även behandlingen skiljer sig åt, till exempel fungerar inte antibiotika mot virus. Väldigt ofta finns varken vaccin eller andra behandlingsmetoder tillgängliga. Man har aldrig gjort någon ordentlig kartläggning över vilka mikroorganismer som ligger bakom diarrésjukdomar hos boskap i Etiopien. Därför kan man inte heller sätta in lämpliga åtgärder som till exempel vaccination eller lämpliga biosäkerhetsåtgärder. Inte heller har man undersökt om dessa mikroorganismer kan smitta mellan djuren och människorna, och vice versa. Detta projekt har därför målsättningen att kartlägga vilka mikroorganismer som cirkulerar i får, getter och kor med diarré. Vi kommer också undersöka i detalj några virus och bakterier som är av speciellt intresse och följa upp om dessa även finns hos barn med diarré. Dessutom kommer vi använda metoder som kan hitta helt nya mikroorganismer (s.k. metagenomik) och vi kommer även studera dessa nya mikroorganismer i mer detalj. Vi tror nämligen att det finns många ännu ej beskrivna virus/bakterier som orsak till diarrésjukdomar hos idisslarna. När vi sedan har fått en så komplett bild som möjligt kommer vi avsluta projektet med en ”work-shop” där vi delar med oss av denna kunskap till organisationer med ansvar för djur, human hälsa och smittskydd i Etiopien, som i sin tur får inleda korttids- och långtidsåtgärder för att kontrollera och behandla dessa. Allt detta kommer leda till betydligt friskare djur och därmed förbättrad hälsa, reducera hunger och fattigdomen för barnen i Etiopien.

Heat stress is an occupational hazard that negatively affects productivity while also increasing accident rates and the risk of acute heat illnesses. Also, there is accumulating evidence that repeated heat stress may lead to chronic kidney disease, which poses high socioeconomic costs to individuals, families, and health systems.Manual outdoor workers in LMIC hot climates are at high risk for heat stress. Quantification of external heat and physical workload which generates metabolic heat is a prerequisite for better understanding of relations between heat stress and health. In this network occupational health researchers in southern Africa will interact with researchers with experience from occupational heat stress studies with a focus on kidney disease in Mesoamerican sugarcane workers. Theoretical and practical training in methods for heat stress assessment in occupational studies will be provided through a series of workshops.A proposal for a study in the sugarcane industry in southern Africa is a planned end-of-project activity, together with knowledge dissemination to a wider audience. Better understanding of the burden heat stress places on production and health systems in LMIC countries is important to ensure that adequate resources for mitigation are dedicated. Stigande temperaturer, extrema väderhändelser och vattenbrist  är redan en realitet i många länder med redan varmt klimat, vilket påverkar människors hälsa och produktivitet. Särskilt utsatta för skadlig värmestress är de som arbetar i en hög omgivningstemperatur samtidigt som de utför ett tungt muskelarbete som genererar ökad kroppstemperatur. Om samtidigt tillgången på vatten är begränsad ökar risken för vätskebrist under arbetsdagen. Hög värmestress kan orsaka värmeslag, akuta njurskador och ökar risken för olyckor. Det finns också mycket som talar för att upprepad värmestress kan ge upphov till kronisk njursjukdom. Detta har man sett t ex bland sockerarbetare i Mellanamerika, där en epidemi av njursjukdom har orsakat stora påfrestningar för de drabbade och deras familjer, i lokalsamhället och för hälso-och sjukvården.När man ska studera hälsoeffekter av arbetsrelaterad värmestress är det nödvändigt att kunna mäta både omgivningstemperaturer och arbetstyngd. I detta SRL-nätverk kommer forskare med stor erfarenhet från studier av värmestress och njursjukdom bland sockerarbetare i Mellanamerika att dela med sig av sina erfarenheter till kollegor från södra Afrika. Teoretisk och praktisk utbildning i olika metoder för att mäta temperaturer och arbetstyngd på arbetsplatser ges i en serie workshops. Deltagarna ska sedan själva genomföra egna arbetsplatsundersökningar vars erfarenheter  och resultat sedan diskuteras. Vidare introduceras ett internationellt protokoll för jämförande epidemiologiska studier av njurfunktion i befolkningsgrupper.Under projekttiden ska medsökande och medarbetare i projektet också skriva ett utkast till en större studie i sockerindustrin i södra Afrika. Liksom i Mellanamerika är sockerproduktionen en viktig del i de nationella ekonomierna, med fortsatt stor omfattning av manuellt arbete även under pågående mekanisering. Jämförande studier från olika länder med delvis olika klimatförhållanden och i olika befolkningar kommer att ge viktig information för att kunna förstå de sannolikt mångfacetterade bakomliggande orsakerna till denna njursjukdom.Hög värmestress finns inte enbart inom industriellt jordbruksarbete. Tungt och varmt underjordsarbete i gruvor och byggnads- och anläggningsarbete är andra exempel, där många migrantarbetare drabbas av ohälsa.

Due to rising temperatures, the climate suitability for Vibrio has increased worldwide, with ecosystem-wide impacts on humans and animals. However, in addition to the direct stimulation of Vibrio growth, the changing climate affects other ecosystem components, such as bloom-forming cyanobacteria, that provide habitat and mediate Vibrio persistence in the so-called ecological reservoirs. In such systems, the infiltration of vibrios to groundwater is more likely, and additional pressures, e.g., plastic pollution, accelerate the spread of these bacteria.We propose to develop a framework for the assessment of Vibrio ecological reservoirs and to apply this framework for predicting the diversity and load of Vibrio in ecosystems with regular cyanobacteria blooms. A team of ecologists, microbiologists, chemists, and hydrologists will explore the role of cyanobacteria-driven Vibrio propagation across the freshwater and brackish systems in the Baltic region and Africa. We will also link Vibrio communities in the surface waters to those in groundwater, and evaluate how plastic litter and water use behavior of humans may affect Vibrio persistence in countries with water scarcity.

Klimatrelaterade infektionssjukdomar utgör stora utmaningar för hälsoorganisationer runt om i världen. Vibrios är ett av de mest slående exempel på nya (mänskliga) sjukdomar som är kopplade till klimatförändringar. Vibrio är temperaturkänsliga bakterier i marina system, som vanligen förekommer tillsammans  med kitinösa planktonorganismer. Utöver kolera-orsakande Vibrios (t ex vissa stammar av Vibrio cholera) kan omkring ett dussin Vibrio-arter orsaka  sjukdomar, kända som vibrios. Vibrios är en orsak till flera hundra tusen sjukdomar varje år världen över, med V. vulnificus och V. parahaemolyticus som huvudorsaken  till sjukdomar orsakade av konsumtion av skaldjur och fisk. Det finns tusentals stammar av Vibrio. Dessutom förekommer nya infektions varianter som ursprungligen härrör från godartade stammar. Dessa nya infektionsvarianter kan ha utvecklats under så kort tid som 25 år. Stigande temperaturer och förändringar i salthalt har gynnat olika Vibrio stammar som ökat under de senaste decennierna världen över, med ekosystemomfattande påverkan på människor och djur. Förutom den direkta effekten på Vibrio-tillväxten påverkar det förändrade klimatet Vibrios ekologiska miktohabitat eller s.k. ekologiska reservoarer (t ex, algkolonier, kräftdjur, ytvatten och grundvatten) och påverkar således dess överföring till människor. Också, användning av plastvattenbehållare och förorening med plastskräp är andra ekologiska reservoarer av Vibrio som kommer att undersökas. Det finns  emellertid begränsad kunskap  om hur förändringar i temperatur och planktonsamhällen påverkar dynamiken hos sjukdomsframkallande Vibrio-stammar, och nya förebyggande strategier behövs.Vi kommer att utveckla ett ramverk för utvärdering av ekologiska reservoarer för vibrios och undersöka förekomst av Vibrio i områden med framväxande vibrios - Östersjön och flera afrikanska sjöar med omfattande cyanobakterieblomningar. Ett team av ekologer, mikrobiologer, kemister och hydrologer kommer att utforska hur cyanobakterieblomningar kan skapa ekologiska reservoarer av vibrios. Med hjälp av metagenomiska och kemiska metoder kommer vi att bedöma hur planktonsammansättning och ffa cyanobakterier påverkar förekomst av patogena och icke-patogena vibrios. Denna information kommer att kopplas till långtidsfallstudierna i Östersjöregionen och utveckling av vibrios i djurplanktonpopulationer under cyanobakterieblomningar. Vi kommer också att utveckla Vibrio-övervakningsmetoden med hjälp av genetiska verktyg. Projekt resultatet kommer att förbättra förståelsen av Vibrios ekologiska interaktioner samt spridningsvektorer, och nuvarande praxis för förebyggande av vibrios.

Med hjälp av metagenomiska och kemiska metoder kommer vi att bedöma hur planktonsammansättning och ffa cyanobakterier påverkar förekomst av patogena och icke-patogena vibrios. Denna information kommer att kopplas till långtidsfallstudierna i Östersjöregionen och utveckling av vibrios i djurplanktonpopulationer under cyanobakterieblomningar. Vi kommer också att utveckla Vibrio-övervakningsmetoden med hjälp av genetiska verktyg. Projekt resultatet kommer att förbättra förståelsen av Vibrios ekologiska interaktioner samt spridningsvektorer, och nuvarande praxis för förebyggande av vibrios.

It seeks mutually beneficial North-South-South research collaboration in the thematic areas of sustainable urban mobility, housing, and urban form. The contextualized issues are inequality in transport and housing mechanisms, high levels of pollution due to fossil fuel dependence, and poverty due to poor economic integration of communities in the urban fabric.The research questions include: 1) How can integrated urban planning in East Africa contribute to sustainable communities through equitable transport, housing, and urban form mechanisms?, 2) What strategies can be explored to decrease pollution and fossil fuel dependence in transport and housing? , 3) How can integrated planning contribute to better livelihoods through local economic activities, linked to housing and mobility? The collaboration will develop a joint research project to study the problem areas described above. Operational aspects of the collaboration will consist of creating synergies in research and teaching, joint thematic workshops engaging relevant stakeholders, pilot activities in selected urban areas to test ideas, and dissemination of knowledge gained.The expected impact is strengthened research collaboration, innovation through pilot testing, and knowledge dissemination through joint publications. The overall goal of this research project is to promote applied research and knowledge in sustainable urban mobility, housing development, and urban form, with a focus on practical and socio-spatial problems in everyday life. The purpose is to contribute to research and development in East Africa based on the use of tested and proven research methods developed at the collaborating universities. It is a joint application developed by researchers at the Department of Spatial Planning, BTH; School of the Built Environment, University of Nairobi, Kenya; Department of Transportation, University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania; and Center of Excellence in Transportation Planning, Technology and Logistics, University of Rwanda, Rwanda.These universities want to build a common research and innovation environment for collaboration and exchange in both academic and applied research areas and which will include senior researchers and doctoral students. Initially, the research group will organize joint research seminars, workshops and pilot projects to test ideas, concepts and programs that result from workshops, field studies and seminar activities. The collaboration aims to develop research in the field of integrated urban planning for sustainable communities and with a focus on mobility, housing development and urban form.Thematic seminars and workshops will form the basis for the planned pilot projects to test concepts that show alternative paths to sustainable mobility and accessibility, enhanced civic participation in community planning, democratic and equal housing, slum upgrades, poverty reduction and social inclusion. Workshops will be organized in the major cities of the participating countries and involve researchers from participating universities, representatives of local public and private stakeholders.The purpose of the pilot projects, which will be carried out in the cities of Nairobi / Kisumu, Dar es Salaam and Kigali, is to test ideas and models for mobility in these cities, for decontamination and development of slums, for promotion and walking and cyclists, and to test programs and models for the development of local plans and regulations for the protection and improvement of natural environments and green areas, as well as water spaces and parks. The participating universities have good conditions and long experience of collaboration with local planning and development authorities and organizations, especially in targeted efforts to apply new innovations to promote public transport, non-motorized transport such as pedestrians, cycle paths and mobility using electricity and renewable energy . . In low-income areas, supply and accessibility to public services are limited by inconsistent, inefficient, fragmented and segregated urban form. A joint research and development platform will be used to develop and test improved spatial structure and organization that enables and promotes access to basic functions and services such as water supply, stormwater drainage, sewerage, lighting and street life. In addition to the workshops organized in the cooperating countries, two seminars are planned in Karlskrona, one in the middle and one at the end of the project period. The seminars will partly aim to inform about the experiences of Swedish urban planning with a focus on housing and traffic planning, and partly offer a broad forum for evaluation of the research group´s activities in East Africa and, prepare the area and focus for the joint research application submitted to Sida at the end of the project period.The results of the activities carried out in East Africa during the project period, including workshops, pilot projects and interactions with the participating organizations, will be compiled into a project report to present and discuss with invited key researchers and stakeholders at the second seminar in Karlskrona .

Social network research is critically underutilized in many LMICs. As such, social networks remain poorly understood determinants of health and poverty outcomes and developing interventions remains a persisting challenge. The purpose of the SNI-LINKS Network is to link together expertise and infrastructures of Swedish, Nepalese, and Indonesian partners to strengthen their individual, organizational and inter-organizational research capacities and competencies in network research to inform effective, efficient and equitable social network interventions. Taking a dual perspective on tuberculosis and malnutrition – which represent major public health challenges in Nepal and Indonesia, SNI-LINKS aims to investigate the relationship between networks and precarity, i.e. healthcare and food insecurity, and to refine the processes through which network ties are activated in times of needs, i.e. facilitating pathways into treatment, utilizing food sharing networks.

Projektet är interdisciplinärt och har sin hemvist i hälso- och utvecklingsforskning, med särskilt fokus på sociala nätverksinsatser för hälso- och fattigdomsbekämpning. Ett grundläggande antagande i forskning om sociala nätverk är att individer inte agerar isolerat utan är verkar i nätverk av relationer och interaktioner. Tidigare forskning visar på samband mellan sociala nätverk och hälsa. Icke desto mindre har lite forskning fokuserat på kunskapsluckor inom detta område i låg och medelinkomstländer (LMIC). Endast cirka 10% av alla hälsorelaterade sociala nätverksstudier härrör från LMIC. SNI-LINKS utgår ifrån antagandet att ett socialt nätverk skapar ett informellt skyddsnät som är ovärderligt för hälsa och välbefinnande i resurssvaga miljöer, där det formella skyddsnätet ofta är relativt svagt. Då sociala närverk är kopplade till makronivåer och tidigare forskning framför allt kommer ifrån höginkomstländer (HIC) är det dock fortfarande oklart om de samband mellan sociala nätverk och hälsa som framkommit är universella och starka nog för att styra interventioner och (hälso-) politiska beslut i LMIC. SNI-LINKS ser också relationers betydelse för fattigdom dvs. fattigdom levs, hanteras, förhandlas och reproduceras i relationer med andra. Frågan om sociala nätverk hjälper till att hantera - eller fly - fattigdom förblir komplex. SNI-LINKS kommer att använda två nya koncept för att studera sambandet mellan sociala nätverk, hälsa och fattigdom. Ett mer holistiskt perspektiv på fattigdom har införts genom begreppet ”precarity”. ”Precarity” går längre än den strukturella förklaringsmodellen till fattigdom och hänvisar till osäkerhet i samband med global ekonomisk och social förändring. Specifikt kommer SNI-LINKS att utforska ”precarity” i förhållande till mat och hälsovård. En nyligen föreslagen ”research agenda for networked lives” presenterade begreppet ”tie activation” som hjälper till att förstå beslut om vem man skall hjälpa, när man skall hjälpa till, hur man bäst kan hjälpa till och om man överhuvudtaget skall hjälpa. SNI-LINKS grundar sig på tidigare forskningserfarenheter från medlemmarna och syftar till att undersöka två hälsoproblem - tuberkulos (TBC) och undernäring - ur ett ”precarity” perspektiv som bygger på den förklarande kraften av nätverk på mesonivå. TBC och undernäring utgör stora folkhälsoutmaningar i både Nepal och Indonesien. Covid-19-pandemin har också påverkat sociala nätverk negativt. Människors fysiska och psykiska hälsa har försämrats och har påverkat utsatta och fattigare grupper oproportionerligt. Både tuberkulos och undernäring har nått oroande nivåer under pandemin i både Nepal och Indonesien, vilket förklaras till stor del av att tillgången till mat och hälso- och sjukvård har påverkats negativt. SNI-LINKS syftar till att stärka medlemmarnas kapacitet och kompetens inom forskning om sociala nätverk för att informera om utformningen av framtida sociala nätverksinterventioner i Nepal och Indonesien. TBC och undernäring hänger ihop och det är därför viktigt att studera både särskilda sociala nätverk för tuberkulospatienter och lokala nätverk för att säkra mat. De specifika forskningsfrågorna, som kommer att undersökas genom formativa forskningsaktiviteter är följande:- Vilka är de vanliga strukturella, funktionella och kvalitetsrelaterade egenskaperna hos tuberkulospatienters sociala nätverk samt hos nätverk som används av medlemmar i lokalsamhället?- Hur aktiveras och används dessa nätverk när det finns speciella behov (dvs behov av tillgång till vård, behov av att säkra mat)?Dessa frågor kommer att utforskas genom en serie seminarier och workshops samt med hjälp av mindre fältaktiviteter.

As the different burdens often are assessed separately, the true impact of zoonotic diseases on society is consistently undervalued. The aim of this three-year project is to estimate the total societal burden of selected zoonotic diseases in Kenya, including the contribution of these diseases to the overall productivity loss in cattle value chains. In addition, the project also aims to investigate how this burden varies across regions and production systems, and for people of different ages and genders. To meet these aims, various sources of secondary data will be combined, including FAOSTAT data on livestock populations, Kenya national disease reporting, systematic literature reviews and results from previous and ongoing research activities at ILRI. These data will be supplemented and triangulated with field work to generate participatory burden assessments in communities representing different livestock systems. Generating data on the total societal burden of zoonotic diseases will enable evidence-based decision-making when formulating and financing disease control programs. In a long-term perspective, the results can contribute to improved human and animal health, alleviated poverty and hunger, gender equality and reduced contribution of livestock to climate change and ecosystem damage. Zoonotiska sjukdomar är sjukdomar som kan smitta mellan människor och djur. De orsakar en betydande samhällsbörda som till stor del bärs av människor i utvecklingsländer, framförallt av småskaliga bönder som är beroende av sina djur för att överleva. Trots detta glöms de zoonotiska sjukdomarna ofta bort i samband med att hälsointerventioner utformas.Zoonotiska sjukdomar inverkar negativt på flera olika samhällsområden utöver människors hälsa. Genom sina hälsoeffekter hos boskapsdjur, exempelvis i form av ökad dödlighet, aborter och sänkt mjölkproduktion, kan dessa sjukdomar bidra till fattigdom och minskad tillgång till mat. Sjukdomar hos såväl människor som djur kan leda till en ökad felaktig användning av antibiotika, vilket påskyndar utvecklingen av antibiotikaresistens. Eftersom djurhållning anses vara extra gynnsamt för utsatta grupper, såsom kvinnor och unga, kan zoonotiska sjukdomar på sikt bidra till ökade klyftor i samhället och minskad jämställdhet. Sist men inte minst kan dessa sjukdomar orsaka negativa effekter på ekosystem och leda till ett ökat utsläpp av växthusgaser. Detta sker till följd av att mer resurser krävs för att de smittade djuren ska kunna producera önskade mängder av exempelvis mjölk och kött.Traditionellt sett har de zoonotiska sjukdomarnas effekter på hälsa, ekonomi och miljö analyserats separat, vilket gör att deras totala samhällsbörda underskattats. Därför är syftet med detta forskningsprojekt att generera data för att beräkna de totala samhällseffekterna av fyra utvalda zoonotiska sjukdomar, nämligen Rift Valley feber (RVF), brucellos, Q-feber och leptospiros, i Kenya. Projektet utreder också hur dessa sjukdomsbördor varierar i olika regioner och djurhållningssystem, samt för människor av olika kön och ålder. Slutligen syftar projektet också till att undersöka effekten av nedsatt hälsa och dåliga djurhållningsrutiner på kenyanska kors produktionsnivåer, samt att beräkna hur stor del av detta produktionsbortfall som beror på smitta med RVF, brucellos, Q-feber och leptospiros.Projektarbetet är uppdelat i två delar. I del ett kommer information från en jordbruksdatabas att kombineras med resultat från ett pågående doktorandprojekt på International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), som syftar till att uppskatta medelvikten av kor av olika åldrar och raser i Kenya. Denna data kommer att användas för att med hjälp av statistiska modeller beräkna det produktionsbortfall som uppstår till följd av nedsatt djurhälsa och dåliga djurhållningsrutiner. Dessutom kommer andelen av detta produktionsbortfall som beror på smitta med RVF, brucellos, Q-feber och leptospiros att beräknas. I del två kommer resultatet från en tidigare ILRI studie (där förekomsten av antikroppar mot RVF, brucellos, Q-feber och leptospiros hos kor undersöktes) kombineras med data från en hälsodatabas, en systematisk litteraturöversikt samt med eget fältarbete. Fältarbetet syftar till att med hjälp av deltagande forskningsmetoder undersöka zoonotiska sjukdomars påverkan på samhället och dess ekonomiska konsekvenser. Den genererade datan i del två kommer att användas för att beräkna den totala bördan av RVF, brucellos, Q-feber och leptospiros i Kenya.Resultaten från detta forskningsprojekt kan leda till flera positiva samhällseffekter. Tillgång till pålitlig information om de inkluderade sjukdomarnas effekter på samhället underlättar för beslutsfattare att vidta åtgärder för att minska sjukdomsbördan. Information om hur bördan varierar inom landet ger vägledning för var och till vilka grupper dessa insatser ska fokuseras. På sikt kan resultaten leda till förbättrad hälsa hos såväl människor som djur, minskad fattigdom, förbättrad tillgång till mat, ökad jämlikhet samt reducering av de negativa effekter som boskapsdjur har på miljön och klimatet.

Within poor countries, this pattern repeats. Farmers, who constitute the majority of the poor and the labor force, produce low quality and unprocessed products, and any quality refinement and processing to intermediate goods, when it occurs, takes place in plants run by large, often transnational, companies. Reshoring the processing of agricultural products from rich countries to the location of origin is key for agriculture to become an engine of growth for poor countries. But reshoring is complicated due to a fundamental trade-off between quality control and value creation: as a product becomes more processed, it typically becomes more difficult for a buyer to verify its quality. In this project, we will experimentally test this trade-off in the coffee sector in Uganda. We will exploit recent advancements in infrared spectral scanning to verify the quality of a processed product in the field, and conduct an RCT that tests whether it is possible for farmers to undertake a larger share of value creation when the quality of processed products is verifiable. We believe this study has the potential to transform farmers’ fortunes precisely because it allow farmers in poor countries to gain from – rather than merely participate in – the international trade of agricultural commodities. Fattigdom är intimt förknippad med låga inkomster. Inkomst avspeglar det ekonomiska mervärde som landet – i form av BNP – skapar, eller som individen skapar i form av sin individuella inkomst. Det är välkänt att dessa mervärden har många bestämningsfaktorer men en som inte uppmärksammats tillräckligt är i fokus i detta forskningsprojekt: det visar sig att mervärde korrelerar starkt med positionen i värdekedjan. Värdekedjan länkar våra fundamentala råvaror (såsom grödor inom jordbruket), via en rad steg i tillverkningsprocessen, till de slutprodukter som säljs till konsumenter, och den successiva förfining av produkten som sker i värdekedjan skapar större och större mervärden, och därmed inkomster. Det är också så, i jämförelser mellan länder, och mellan områden och produktionsenheter inom länder, att de låga inkomsterna förknippas starkt till de första stegen i värdekedjan. Här tas råvaror fram och förfinas först i senare skeden, om än alls. De minst förfinade jordbruksprodukterna säljs t ex helt enkelt bara lokalt och inbringar bara mycket låga inkomster.Målet med detta projekt är att främja skapande av mervärde i botten på värdekedjan. Projektets grundidé bygger på ett problem som typiskt finns på marknader i utvecklingsländer, och speciellt inom jordbruket: när en råvara processas blir den oftast svårare att kvalitetskontrollera. Det är välkänt att om en produkts kvalitet är svårverifierbar kan det leda till att marknaden för den produkten helt försvinner. Specifikt, i fallet jordbruk i fattiga länder och områden med småskaligt jordbruk där behoven av inkomster är som störst, har man funnit att när bönder ges möjlighet att producera mer högkvalitativa grödor, med olika former av stöd (inklusive nya teknologier, gödselmedel etc.), så väljer många ändå att inte utnyttja möjligheterna. Detta sker till stor del just för att det pga informationsproblemen inte lönar sig att uppgradera produktionsprocessen: kvaliteten på den mer förfinade produkten som jordbrukaren skulle kunna producera kan helt enkelt inte identifieras som sådan av köparna. För att illustrera: en jordbrukare som odlar kaffe kan antingen sälja kaffebär eller spendera mer tid och arbete på att producera en mer förfinad produkt, soltorkade kaffebönor t ex. Det är förhållandevis enkelt att avgöra om kaffebären är av bra kvalitet – de mogna bären är mörkröda – men det är svårt att avgöra om de torkade kaffebönorna faktiskt från början var solmogna bär och om de processades på rätt sätt. Av denna anledning är det svårt för jordbrukaren att få bra betalat för kaffebönor, även om de är av bra kvalitet, då köparen inte kan vara säker på att så är fallet. Att sälja kaffebär ger heller inte mycket betalt, då råvaran inte alls har förfinats.I detta fältexperiment i Uganda kommer en existerande teknik för kvalitetssäkring att adapteras på ett sätt som tillåter kvalitetsidentifikation av just kaffebönor i fält. Det i sin tur kommer öppna möjligheten för småbönder att sälja en mer förfinad produkt, dvs tillåta småbönderna att höja mervärdet på sin produktion, vilket i sin tur förväntas leda till att deras inkomster höjs markant, speciellt efter den successiva inlärning som också är en förutsättning – och som i sig är utmanande – i produktionsomställningen. Studien kommer emulera de globala värdekedjor som finns inom jordbrukssektorn och skulle den fungera kan potentiellt mycket stora välfärdsvinster uppnås just i de fattigaste områdena. Kvalitetskontrollen skulle alltså kunna väcka till liv de marknader som idag inte är tillgängliga för en stor andel av de fattiga bönderna. Även om inte just den kvalitetskontrollteknik vi använder för kaffe kan användas för andra grödor så skulle ett lyckat utfall indikera ett markant värde just i att ta fram liknande system för kvalitetskontroll för en mängd andra jordbruksprodukter och råvaror.

It considers three questions: 1) What explains when and how communities implement and enforce policies to mitigate the pandemic´s negative effects? When/why does this impact poverty and inequality? 2) How do community factors and individuals’ characteristics affect how individuals manage crises? 3) How has the pandemic altered community capital and authority? We draw on research relating to resilience, public health, and governance to answer these questions, leveraging unique panel data and case studies from Malawi to test hypotheses. The panel data include face-to-face (F2F) surveys with households and elites conducted in 2019 before the pandemic, three telephone surveys conducted during the pandemic, and a post-pandemic F2F survey. As one of the poorest populations in the world, with clearly defined and gendered local authority structures, Malawi is particularly well-suited to provide crisis response insights at the individual and community levels. Moreover, the data allows for pathbreaking research, as this is – to our knowledge – the most rigorous, sustained examination of crisis response. The findings will yield theoretical understandings of resilience, health crisis response, and authority, while supporting policymakers and development specialists to alleviate poverty and other negative consequences of crises. Detta projekt undersöker vilka faktorer som bäst förklarar varför vissa individer och samhällen besvarar kriser bättre än andra, samt hur sådana kriser påverkar deras långsiktiga samhällsstyrning och välfärd. Projektet ställer tre övergripande forskningsfrågor: 1) Vad förklarar när och hur samhällen implementerar och verkställer politiska beslut med syfte att mildra de negativa effekterna av coronapandemin?; 2) Hur påverkar samhällsfaktorer och individuella egenskaper möjligheten för individer att överleva, och till och med frodas under, en kris?; och 3) Hur har pandemin förändrat karaktären av samhällskapital (community capital), auktoritet och samhällsstyrning i dessa samhällen?  Projektet bygger på tre åtskilda forskningslitteraturfält för att besvara dessa frågor: forskning om social resiliens (community resilience) inför och i samband med naturkatastrofer, hanteringen av folkhälsokriser, samt samhällsstyrning och konflikt.  Det använder sig av unik panelsurveydata över malawiska individer och samhällen för att undersöka dessa frågor. Datan inkluderar hushålls- och elitsurveyundersökningar genomförda face-to-face år 2019 innan pandemin, tre telefonsurveyundersökningar genomförda under pandemin, samt en post-pandemi face-to-face hushållssurveyundersökning kompletterad av fallstudier (vilka är tänkta att finansieras genom projektet som föreslås här). Varje dataset innehåller mått på samhällens sociala kapital, maktstrukturer, välfärd på individ- och samhällsnivå samt resultat av samhällsstyrning.   Malawi är ett särskilt användbart fall att studera i detta sammanhang, då landet har en av världens fattigaste befolkningar samt har tydligt definierade och könsbestämda lokala maktstrukturer. Det är således ett viktigt land att studera för att fastställa vilka faktorer som kan bidra till att lindra fattigdom, samt för att ge insikter om hur lokala maktstrukturer och socialt kapital kan påverka resultat på individ- och samhällsnivå.   Datan möjliggör genombrytande forskning, då denna är den mest rigorösa och ihållande undersökningen av krisrespons till vår vetskap. Vi kombinerar analyser med fallstudier av förändringar i samhällsstyrning i fyra noggrant utvalda samhällen, för att närmare undersöka de underliggande mekanismerna bakom sådan respons. Resultaten kommer att belysa den teoretiska förståelsen av resiliens, respons till hälsokriser och förändringar i lokal samhällsstyrning.  Dessutom kommer de att stödja beslutsfattare och utvecklingsspecialister med fokus på att lindra fattigdom och andra negativa konsekvenser av kriser. Resultaten kommer att spridas i akademiska artiklar och presentationer, samt genom policy briefs, podcasts och andra mötesplatser för intressenter och allmänheten.

Detta projekt undersöker vilka faktorer som bäst förklarar varför vissa individer och samhällen besvarar kriser bättre än andra, samt hur sådana kriser påverkar deras långsiktiga samhällsstyrning och välfärd. Projektet ställer tre övergripande forskningsfrågor: 1) Vad förklarar när och hur samhällen implementerar och verkställer politiska beslut med syfte att mildra de negativa effekterna av coronapandemin?; 2) Hur påverkar samhällsfaktorer och individuella egenskaper möjligheten för individer att överleva, och till och med frodas under, en kris?; och 3) Hur har pandemin förändrat karaktären av samhällskapital (community capital), auktoritet och samhällsstyrning i dessa samhällen?  Projektet bygger på tre åtskilda forskningslitteraturfält för att besvara dessa frågor: forskning om social resiliens (community resilience) inför och i samband med naturkatastrofer, hanteringen av folkhälsokriser, samt samhällsstyrning och konflikt.  Det använder sig av unik panelsurveydata över malawiska individer och samhällen för att undersöka dessa frågor. Datan inkluderar hushålls- och elitsurveyundersökningar genomförda face-to-face år 2019 innan pandemin, tre telefonsurveyundersökningar genomförda under pandemin, samt en post-pandemi face-to-face hushållssurveyundersökning kompletterad av fallstudier (vilka är tänkta att finansieras genom projektet som föreslås här). Varje dataset innehåller mått på samhällens sociala kapital, maktstrukturer, välfärd på individ- och samhällsnivå samt resultat av samhällsstyrning.   Malawi är ett särskilt användbart fall att studera i detta sammanhang, då landet har en av världens fattigaste befolkningar samt har tydligt definierade och könsbestämda lokala maktstrukturer. Det är således ett viktigt land att studera för att fastställa vilka faktorer som kan bidra till att lindra fattigdom, samt för att ge insikter om hur lokala maktstrukturer och socialt kapital kan påverka resultat på individ- och samhällsnivå.   Datan möjliggör genombrytande forskning, då denna är den mest rigorösa och ihållande undersökningen av krisrespons till vår vetskap. Vi kombinerar analyser med fallstudier av förändringar i samhällsstyrning i fyra noggrant utvalda samhällen, för att närmare undersöka de underliggande mekanismerna bakom sådan respons. Resultaten kommer att belysa den teoretiska förståelsen av resiliens, respons till hälsokriser och förändringar i lokal samhällsstyrning.  Dessutom kommer de att stödja beslutsfattare och utvecklingsspecialister med fokus på att lindra fattigdom och andra negativa konsekvenser av kriser. Resultaten kommer att spridas i akademiska artiklar och presentationer, samt genom policy briefs, podcasts och andra mötesplatser för intressenter och allmänheten.

The wild (forest and semi-forest) arabica coffee constitutes nearly 80% of Ethiopia’s coffee production and export. However, disease outbreaks are increasingly threatening its gene pool to the extent that it is categorized as Endangered. Coffee berry disease (CBD) caused by a fungal pathogen Colletotrichum kahawae is a major factor having profound effects on wild coffee diversity and productivity. Integrating farmers’ knowledge, phenotypic and molecular marker based screening of its gene pool, and use of plant promoting and pathogen antagonizing microbes is vitally important to control CBD. This project is proposed to explore different means of managing CBD. These include assessing farmers’ CBD related knowledge, characterizing the pathogen, identification of susceptible and resistant genotypes through greenhouse experiments, and collecting and characterizing coffee associated microbes. Transcriptome analyses for identification of genes that differ among resistant and susceptible genotypes followed by comparative genomics to identify CBD resistance genes and its associated markers will also be conducted. The results will be useful for developing integrated CBD management strategy after further research. It also adds new information to coffee genomics that advances its utilization for conservation and breeding. Etiopiens ekonomi och export är till stor del beroende av den nationella jordbruksproduktionen. Arabicakaffe (Coffea arabica) är en inhemsk producerad vara som bidrar till en stor del av landets ekonomi vilket gör att den även benämns som det ”gröna guldet”. Faktum är att arabicakaffe är en inkomstkälla till nästan 14% av befolkningen och har ett stort kulturellt värde. Etiopien exporterar arabicakaffe av hög kvalitet med en unik arom och smak som har sitt ursprung i odlade och vilda skogsvarianter. Den vilda kaffepopulationen i landet utgör en mycket viktig genetisk resurs för produktion och förädling av nya sorter av arabicakaffe. Internationella naturvårdsunionen bedömde nyligen det vilda arabicakaffet som utrotningshotat och dess produktion och produktivitet sjunker. Detta får enorma följder för den lokala industrin samt nationella såväl som internationella marknaden då miljoner människor är beroende av kaffeproduktionen längs hela dess värdekedja. Återkommande torkperioder orsakade av klimatförändringar, minskade habitat till följd av en snabb befolkningstillväxt samt abiotisk- och biotisk stress har en djupgående inverkan på kaffeproduktionen i Etiopien.Den viktigaste sjukdomen hos kaffebönan är CBD (coffee berry disease) som orsakas av svampen Colletotrichum kahawae. Sjukdomen är allvarligast för den vilda kaffepopulationen eftersom dess miljö med varmare temperaturer och högre relativ luftfuktighet är särskilt gynnsam för patogenen. Patogenen infekterar den gröna kaffebönan vilket reducerar råvarukvalitet och därmed marknadsvärdet på bönan. Rapporter visar att CBD kan orsaka avkastningsförluster på uppåt 80% och bara i Etiopen leder detta till ekonomiskt bortfall på över 73,6 miljoner USD årligen. De åtgärder som hittills vidtagits för att kontrollera sjukdomen såsom fungicider, traditionella insatser och introduktion av resistenta sorter har inte varit tillräckliga för att hantera problemet. Få av dessa insatser har dessutom varit forskningsförankrade. Åtgärden med bekämpningsmedel är inte ekonomiskt hållbara för småbrukarna eftersom det ökar produktionskostnaden med 30-40 % och inte effektivt alls för den vilda kaffepopulationen på grund av svår tillgänglighet och negativ inverkan på ekosystemet.I detta projekt utforskar vi tillgängliga medel och verktyg som kan bidra till en samordnad odlingsstrategi för att minimera CBDs negativa inverkan på kaffeproduktiviteten i Etiopien, såväl som globalt. Aktiviteterna innefattar en fältundersökning i betydelsefulla kaffeskogar i Etiopien i syfte att utvärdera status på, och identifiera hot för den vilda kaffepopulationen. Vi samlar in potentiellt resistenta och mottagliga kaffeböngenotyper såväl som provexemplar av patogenen och mikrober som samverkar med växten, för laboratorie- och växthusexperiment.

Unfortunately, biotic and abiotic stresses, climate change and edaphic factors are major constraints to sustainable sorghum production threatening food and nutritional security. Among its major stress factors, Striga hermonthica, which is regarded as the “sorghum’s worst enemy”, causes up to 100% yield losses in smallholder farms. Hence, genetic resistance to this parasitic weed is the most economically viable control measure. Sudanese sorghum has been identified as a major source of resistance against Striga. The project goal builds towards a vision to achieve sustainable food security and reduce poverty by growing Striga resistant sorghum cultivars. To contribute to this vision, a highly motivated international team of diverse expertise is proposing this project focusing on sorghum’s center of origin. This project aims to apply innovative genomic solutions that speed up the pyramiding of resistance genes, thereby keeping pace with changes in the Striga infestation capacity, through 1) socio-economic study; 2) introgressing new Striga resistance gene(s) 3) association genetics; 4) capacity building; 5) and climate-smart agriculture. This project has enormous potential for identifying new sources of Striga resistance, in which this novel research opens up opportunities for durable Striga resistance in sorghum breeding. Med tanke på att över 80% av Sudans befolkning är jordbrukare, spelar jordbruk en central roll i Sudan. Som i andra länder söder om Sahara spelar durra en särskilt viktig roll i livsmedelsförsörjningen för miljontals småbrukare på grund av dess förmåga att växa i halvtorr jord under jordbruk med låg insats. Durra är torktolerant gröda; därför kommer klimatet och befolkningstillväxten att fortsätta spela en nyckelroll i livsmedelssäkerheten i Sudan och andra länder i Subsahariska Afrika. Durraproduktionen begränsas dock av biotiska begränsningar, varav effekterna av Striga manifesteras i avsevärt minskad durrautbyte, vilket påverkar inkomst och eskalerar livsmedelsbrist hos småskaliga jordbrukare. Avkastningsförlust på upp till 100% på grund av Striga har rapporterats i större durraproduktionsområden. Småskaliga jordbrukare saknar tillgång till jordbruksinsatser för att minska Striga-trycket och öka avkastningen.  Förbättring av durravarans motståndskraft mot Striga och förståelse av motståndsmekanismer är den främsta forskningsprioriteten för att upprätthålla en hållbar durraproduktion i Sudan. Att identifiera vilda släktingar till grödan som kan vara en källa till motståndskännetecken är ett viktigt steg för att förbättra värdmotståndet i grödan. Lyckligtvis anses Sudan vara ett centrum för ursprung och mångfald för durra, vilket indikerar närvaron av rik genetisk mångfald av durra och dess vilda släktingar, och unika egenskaper anpassade till det lokala klimatet. Ändå innebär brist på kapacitet och resurser och decennier av sanktioner som begränsar forskningssamarbete det finns ingen avancerad forskning som har utförts i Sudan för att förbättra durraproduktionen. Detta projekt är ett nära samarbete mellan Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet och Agricultural Research Corporation (ARC) i Sudan, Colorado Stat Universitet och Universitet av Queensland.

Resultaten kommer att underlätta screening av befintliga durrakimplasmas för antraknosresistens, förbättra durraresistens mot Striga, minska avkastningsförluster och bidra till livsmedelssäkerhet i större durraodlingsområden i Sudan och Subsahariska Afrika.

Around 90% of Tanzanians depend on some products or services from the 45 million ha of Miombo. Much of the woodland is degraded into low productivity agriculture. Due to demographic pressure and increasing demands for livestock products, grazing pressure in the Miombo is dramatically increasing in remaining forests.Too high grazing pressure reduces natural regeneration of vegetation, restricts soil C sequestration and impedes water infiltration into the soil. However, it is unknown what “too high” grazing pressure is. We will study soil carbon and water dynamics under different grazing pressure and management regimes in Miombo. Trade-offs and synergies between different production options and ecosystem services will be analysed. We will develop indicators for soil and rangeland health that will be applicable over large parts of the Miombo biome.To understand livelihood options and choices, we will connect the land use studies with gender- and generation sensitive studies of livestock keeping and social relations among pastoralists and agro-pastoralists in the Miombo.We are a group of natural and social scientists from Sweden and Tanzania in a unique position to combine environmental and socio-economic sustainability studies. Results will be of guidance to local livestock herders and to policy makers. Vi är många på klotet, vi blir allt fler, och vår medelinkomst ökar. Det leder till ökad efterfrågan på kött, mjölk och andra animaliska produkter. Hur framtidens jordbruk på ett hållbart och rättvist sätt ska kunna öka sin produktion är en av de största utmaningar mänskligheten står inför. Vi befinner oss också i en pågående klimatförändring där vikten av att våra marker binder kol får alltmer uppmärksamhet. Miombo är ett torrt skogsekosystem som dominerar Tanzania och stora delar av grannländerna. Totalt omfattar det så mycket som 270 miljoner hektar, varav 45 miljoner hektar bara i Tanzania (lika mycket som Sveriges totala landyta). Det har därmed en enorm betydelse för livsmedelsförsörjning och ekosystemtjänster, som att binda kol, i regionen.Miomboskogen ger tillgång till betesmark, ved, frukt, timmer men även möjlighet att producera träkol. En allt större befolkning använder Miomboskogen. När boskapsskötare (pastoralister) trycks undan från andra marker tvingas de till Miomboskogen med sina djur under delar av året. Det medför att den är utsatt för ett allt större tryck med ökad markförslitning, överbetning och minskad del kvarvarande skog.Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är att hitta metoder för att förbättra och utveckla Miombo för hållbar och ökad produktion av livsmedel men även för att Miomboskogens ekosystem ska kunna vara en viktig del av livsmedelsförsörjning och ekosystemtjänster även i framtiden. Omkring 265 miljoner lantbrukare i Afrika har boskap som sin huvudsakliga, och många gånger enda, inkomstkälla. Boskap är betydelsefullt för en trygg inkomst. Ett av de största problemen för lantbrukare i torrområden är att hålla sin boskap med mat året om. Det blir än värre med längre och mer frekventa torrperioder. De senaste åren har många lantbrukare förlorat ett stort antal av sina djur då de inte haft tillräckligt med foder till dem. De redan utsatta lantbrukarfamiljerna hamnar i en svår, för att inte säga nästan omöjlig, situation. Många gånger är migration enda utvägen, vilket kan leda till konflikter. Detta är redan en verklighet för många.Men Miomboskogen har inte bara stor betydelse för pastoralister utan levererar många typer av ekosystemtjänster. Skogen har bland annat en stor potential att binda kol. Men hur mycket beror på ett flertal olika faktorer och i dagsläget finns stora kunskapsluckor för en hållbar utveckling av ekosystem som Miombo. Ett alltför högt betestryck påverkar föryngring av träd och gräs samt kolinlagring och markens vattenhållande förmåga negativt. Men vad som är ett ”för högt” betestryck och hur markerna och betet bör skötas för en uthållig produktion är dock högst oklart. För att studera utvecklingen av socio-ekonomiska och biofysiska drivkrafter som påverkar markanvändningen i Miombo måste en lång rad aspekter beaktas. Detta projekt är en unik kombination av detaljerade studier av markens kolinlagring och dynamik, vattnets dynamik i marken, betesresurser och betestryckets påverkan samt socioekonomiska förändringar.

The originality of the project lies in its design and co-creation of research questions that are crucial for tackling global mental health and sustainable development issues. The initiative, involving academia in Sweden and Somaliland as well as stakeholders in Somaliland, aims to investigate the prevalence and burden of mental health problems among children and adolescents in Somaliland. The research agenda aims to contribute scientific knowledge and pave the way for the future design and testing of innovative intervention models and policies based on human rights in line with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The collaboration will be built on an equitable partnership basis to facilitate co-creation, communication, commitment, and continuous review based on fairness, respect, care, honesty and transparency. A core group of researchers will be jointly responsible for the activities in the collaboration plan. The project, starting in January 2022, will run for two years, during which the following activities are planned: promoting a dialogue with the Somaliland health authorities and key UN health agencies to better understand existing practices and magnitude of mental health. The project will contribute to scientific evidence to design tailored mental health interventions, implementation strategies and policy recommendations. Somaliland är politiskt stabilt och säkrare i jämförelse med resten av Somaliregionen, och landet har en fungerande regering som kontinuerligt arbetar för att bygga hållbara hälsovårdssystem för att nå ut till hela befolkningen. Baserat på den nyligen reviderade nationella policy om psykiska hälsa i Somaliland, initierar vi arbetet med att utveckla forskningssamarbete för att tillsammans co-producera forskningsagenda som involverar akademin i Sverige och Somaliland, målgruppen, samt andra organisationer. Detta initiativ bygger på ett samarbetsavtal samt tidigare projekt mellan Amoud universitet och Högskolan Dalarna om att stärka forskning om kvinnors och barns hälsa samt kapacitetsbyggande av institutionerna. En kärngrupp av forskare kommer att gemensamt vara ansvariga för aktiviteter som skrivs fram i samarbetsplanen. Projektet, som börjar i januari 2022, kommer att löpa i två år, där följande aktiviteter planeras: genomföra gemensamma analyser och skriva publikationer, bygga dialoger med landets hälsoministerier (hälsoministeriet, utbildningsministeriet, justitiedepartementet), brukarorganisationer och viktiga FN-organisationer. Vidare kommer det att genomföras workshop för engagera dem i workshops om evidensbaserade och kultursensitiva interventioner för att främja psykosociala hälsa hos barn och ungdomar i Somaliland.

The originality of the project lies in its design and co-creation of research questions that are crucial for tackling global mental health and sustainable development issues. The initiative, involving academia in Sweden and Somaliland as well as stakeholders in Somaliland, aims to investigate the prevalence and burden of mental health problems among children and adolescents in Somaliland. The research agenda aims to contribute scientific knowledge and pave the way for the future design and testing of innovative intervention models and policies based on human rights in line with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The collaboration will be built on an equitable partnership basis to facilitate co-creation, communication, commitment, and continuous review based on fairness, respect, care, honesty and transparency. A core group of researchers will be jointly responsible for the activities in the collaboration plan. The project, starting in January 2022, will run for two years, during which the following activities are planned: promoting a dialogue with the Somaliland health authorities and key UN health agencies to better understand existing practices and magnitude of mental health. The project will contribute to scientific evidence to design tailored mental health interventions, implementation strategies and policy recommendations. Somaliland är politiskt stabilt och säkrare i jämförelse med resten av Somaliregionen, och landet har en fungerande regering som kontinuerligt arbetar för att bygga hållbara hälsovårdssystem för att nå ut till hela befolkningen. Baserat på den nyligen reviderade nationella policy om psykiska hälsa i Somaliland, initierar vi arbetet med att utveckla forskningssamarbete för att tillsammans co-producera forskningsagenda som involverar akademin i Sverige och Somaliland, målgruppen, samt andra organisationer. Detta initiativ bygger på ett samarbetsavtal samt tidigare projekt mellan Amoud universitet och Högskolan Dalarna om att stärka forskning om kvinnors och barns hälsa samt kapacitetsbyggande av institutionerna. En kärngrupp av forskare kommer att gemensamt vara ansvariga för aktiviteter som skrivs fram i samarbetsplanen. Projektet, som börjar i januari 2022, kommer att löpa i två år, där följande aktiviteter planeras: genomföra gemensamma analyser och skriva publikationer, bygga dialoger med landets hälsoministerier (hälsoministeriet, utbildningsministeriet, justitiedepartementet), brukarorganisationer och viktiga FN-organisationer. Vidare kommer det att genomföras workshop för engagera dem i workshops om evidensbaserade och kultursensitiva interventioner för att främja psykosociala hälsa hos barn och ungdomar i Somaliland. Workshops kommer även att fastställa en forskningsagenda med tydliga prioriterade områden; skriva gemensamma forskningsansökningar och sprida kunskapen från projektet samt diskutera forskningsagendan och projektförslag.De senaste tre decennierna har Somalia drabbats av långvarig konflikt, brist på säkerhet, flyktingvågor samt hungersnöd.

The mobile microscopes are wirelessly connected via mobile networks for AI-based analysis and provide access to diagnostics where there is a lack of medical experts. We now intend to scale up the use of the new diagnostic method in the form of a validation study in Tanzania with the aim of detecting premalignant changes for the purpose of cervical cancer screening and prevention. During 2022-2023 a total of 1,500 cervical smears will be collected and digitized with mobile microscope scanners and premalignant cells detected with a deep learning algorithm. Suspected abnormal cells are verified by a pathologist and treated. In 2023-24 the method´s diagnostic accuracy, technical feasibility, cost and time per test, and acceptance of the AI method is evaluated and compared to conventional diagnostics.Throughout the project, opportunities for larger scale implementation of the diagnostic platform in East Africa are evaluated, with the ultimate goal of achieving sustainable solutions for low-resource settings.The methods have great potential to improve equitable and sustainable access to high-quality diagnostics for cervical cancer screening among women residing in low- and middle income countries, carrying the highest cervical cancer burden globally. Vår forskargrupp har utvecklat och studerat artificiell intelligens (AI) i kombination med mobil digital mikroskopi för att hitta förstadier till livmoderhalscancer tidigare hos kvinnor i resursbegränsade miljöer. Vår nyligen publicerade konceptvalideringsstudie visar att cellprovsanalyser med hjälp av AI kan uppnå en diagnostisk träffsäkerhet som ärjämförbar med analyser gjorda av experter.Den preliminära studien som gjordes i samarbete med ett sjukhus på landsbygden i Kenya och omfattade 740 kvinnor, visar att AI:ns och experternas bedömningarna var snarlika. AI:n hade 96–100 procents träffsäkerhet när det gäller att identifiera patienter med premaligna cellförändringar. Inga patienter med allvarligare, så kallade höggradiga cellförändringar fick ett falskt negativt provsvar med AI-metoden. När det gäller att identifiera prover utan cellförändringar gjorde AI:n samma bedömning som patologerna i 78–85 procent av fallen.Med vår metod kan vi mer effektivt upptäcka och behandla förstadier till livmoderhals-cancer hos kvinnor i framförallt låginkomstländer, där det råder stor brist på utbildade patologer och avancerad labbutrustning.I länder med nationella screeningprogram som syftar till att upptäcka cellförändringar i livmoderhalsen och infektioner orsakade av humant papillomvirus (HPV) har antalet fall av livmoderhalscancer sjunkit dramatiskt. Trots det väntas det globala antalet fall öka det kommande årtiondet, till stor del på grund av bristande resurser för screening och HPV-vaccinering i låginkomstländer.  Livmoderhalscancer är fortfarande den vanligaste orsaken till cancerdöd bland kvinnor i de Afrikanska länderna. Livmoderhalscancer har utöver påverkan på hälsa även stora effekter på fattigdom, utbildning och jämställdhet – som alla ingår i Förenta Nationernas globala mål för en hållbar utveckling. Många av de kvinnor som dör av livsmoderhalscancer är försörjare och vårdnadshavare av både barn och äldre För att erbjuda gynekologiska cellprovtagningar till fler kvinnor globalt behövs innovativa diagnostiska lösningar som tar hänsyn till de lokala förutsättningarna och begränsningarna.I den planerade studien ämnar vi validera den AI-baserade metoden i samarbete med Muhimbili University for Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) i Dar-es-Salaam i Tanzania.Vi ämnar samla in 1 500 cervikalutstryk från kvinnor som besöker gynekologiska mottagningar inom MUHAS universitetssjukhus upptagningsområde. Efter samtycke tas cellprover och prepareras enligt etablerad metod (Papanicolau) och digitaliseras med ett mobilt mikroskop, samt laddas upp via mobilnätet till den molnbaserade AI:n. AI:n appliceras för att känna igen olika grader av cellförändringar och metodens träffsäkerhet, tidsåtgång, kostnad per test och acceptans utvärderas. AI:ns bedömning jämförs därefter med två patologers oberoende skattning av de digitala och fysiska proverna.Vår hypotes är att metoden kan användas för att sålla bort majoriteten av cellproverna, vilket kan frigöra tid för lokala experter att granska de prover som uppvisar förändringar. Vår planerade studie görs på en större och mer diversifierad patientgrupp jämfört med den konceptvalideringsstudien och inkluderar fler prover med olika typer av cellförändringar samt biopsier med bekräftade förstadier till livmoderhalscancer.De mobilt uppkopplade mikroskopen kombinerade med AI:n kan fungera som”virtuell assistenter” och användas som stöd vid screening av livmoderhalscancer. AI-assistenten kan vara tillgänglig globalt dygnet runt och göra det möjligt för lokala experter att undersöka många fler prover. Denna metod skulle göra det möjligt för länder med begränsade resurser att tillhandahålla screeningtjänster till befolkningen, mycket mer effektivt, tillförlitligt och till betydligt lägre kostnader. Under hela projektet utvärderas möjligheter till uppskalning av diagnosplattformen med målet att uppnå hållbara lösningar för resursbegränsade miljöer.

The network includes researchers from India, Nigeria, Sri Lanka and Sweden. The nanomaterials are either fabricated or biogenic, and will be used for improving the properties of dye sensitized and thin film solar cells. For dye/quantum dot sensitized solar cells, nano-structurally modified TiO2 photoanodes, nano-structurally modified electrolytes using nanofibres and nanofillers will be considered.  In the case of semiconductor thin-film solar cells, the development involves novel low-cost ternary and quaternary semiconductor thin films by electrodeposition and chemical methods. One type of biogenic nanomaterial of special interest is siliceous based frustules (exoskeletons from diatoms), that with their intriguing optical properties will be investigated for both types of solar cells. Furthermore, low-cost electrodes based on natural graphite, reduced graphene oxides and stainless steel will be studied. The network building will include exchange visits to the other partners’ laboratories, seminars/workshops, aiming for joint research applications. The cooperation in this project is cross-disciplinary involving physicists and chemists, the complementary character of the involved institutions is a key to the project. Vi avser att bilda ett nytt nätverk för solcellsforskare från Indien, Nigeria, Sri Lanka och Sverige. Syftet är att utveckla nanomaterial för effektiva och billiga solceller. Nanomaterialen är antingen fabricerade eller biogena (som bildats i levande organismer) och kommer att användas för att förbättra egenskaperna hos vissa typer av solceller. För så kallade tunnfilmssolceller kommer nya halvledarmaterial att utvecklas med fokus på låga tillverkningskostnader. En annan typ är fotoelektrokemiska solceller där antingen ett färgämne eller kvantprickar är huvudkomponenter för att absorbera solstrålningen. I detta fall kommer olika nanomaterial att framställas i form av tunna fibrer eller små korn för att förbättra verkningsgrad och livslängd. Fotoelektrod, elektrolyt- och elektrodmaterial kommer därvid att anpassas för att nå projektmålen, bland annat genom att utnyttja naturlig grafit, reducerad grafenoxid och rostfritt stål.En typ av biogena nanomaterial av speciellt intresse är så kallade frustuler (exoskelett från kiselalger). Dessa kiselalger är rikligt förekommande encelliga organismer i världshaven. De skyddas alltså av exoskelett som, efter att de renats från organiskt innehåll, uppvisar unika optiska egenskaper för att fånga in solstrålningen. Genom att integrera dessa naturliga nanostrukturer i fotoanoden har vi nyligen visat att verkningsgraden hos fotoelektrokemiska solceller kan öka signifikant. I detta projekt kommer vi därför att fördjupa våra vetenskapliga studier för att vidareutveckla användningen av frustuler även för andra typer av solceller.Projektet kommer att omfatta forskarutbyten mellan nätverkets laboratorier, seminarier och workshops och syftar slutligen till gemensamma ansökningar för vidare forskning.

I detta sammanhang är landsbygdsområden i många utvecklingsländer särskild utsatta. De är sällan anslutna till nationella nät, och stora avstånd gör det dyrt att bygga ut infrastrukturen. Att få tillgång till lokalt producerad elektricitet är därför väsentligt för att bekämpa fattigdom i det globala syd.

Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Sri Lanka Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2021-04889_3-1 Sweden This proposal aims at building a new research network for developing nanomaterials designed for efficient and affordable solar cells. The network includes researchers from India, Nigeria, Sri Lanka and Sweden. The nanomaterials are either fabricated or biogenic, and will be used for improving the properties of dye sensitized and thin film solar cells. For dye/quantum dot sensitized solar cells, nano-structurally modified TiO2 photoanodes, nano-structurally modified electrolytes using nanofibres and nanofillers will be considered.  In the case of semiconductor thin-film solar cells, the development involves novel low-cost ternary and quaternary semiconductor thin films by electrodeposition and chemical methods. One type of biogenic nanomaterial of special interest is siliceous based frustules (exoskeletons from diatoms), that with their intriguing optical properties will be investigated for both types of solar cells. Furthermore, low-cost electrodes based on natural graphite, reduced graphene oxides and stainless steel will be studied. The network building will include exchange visits to the other partners’ laboratories, seminars/workshops, aiming for joint research applications. The cooperation in this project is cross-disciplinary involving physicists and chemists, the complementary character of the involved institutions is a key to the project. Vi avser att bilda ett nytt nätverk för solcellsforskare från Indien, Nigeria, Sri Lanka och Sverige. Syftet är att utveckla nanomaterial för effektiva och billiga solceller. Nanomaterialen är antingen fabricerade eller biogena (som bildats i levande organismer) och kommer att användas för att förbättra egenskaperna hos vissa typer av solceller. För så kallade tunnfilmssolceller kommer nya halvledarmaterial att utvecklas med fokus på låga tillverkningskostnader. En annan typ är fotoelektrokemiska solceller där antingen ett färgämne eller kvantprickar är huvudkomponenter för att absorbera solstrålningen. I detta fall kommer olika nanomaterial att framställas i form av tunna fibrer eller små korn för att förbättra verkningsgrad och livslängd. Fotoelektrod, elektrolyt- och elektrodmaterial kommer därvid att anpassas för att nå projektmålen, bland annat genom att utnyttja naturlig grafit, reducerad grafenoxid och rostfritt stål.En typ av biogena nanomaterial av speciellt intresse är så kallade frustuler (exoskelett från kiselalger). Dessa kiselalger är rikligt förekommande encelliga organismer i världshaven. De skyddas alltså av exoskelett som, efter att de renats från organiskt innehåll, uppvisar unika optiska egenskaper för att fånga in solstrålningen.

Presence of chemical stressors facilitate transfer of ARG to bacteria. Although the contribution of ARG spread to global resistance is well understood, the dynamics of resistance spread from the environment to clinically relevant bacteria is currently an enigma. Our research focus on the impact of bacteriophages within such setting - a mechanism that historically has been considered of low importance but where new data is suggesting a key role.We hypothesize that i) bacteriophages can be induced by chemical stressors, ii) phage resistome in induced phages depend on choice of stressor, iii) induced phages are capable of spreading resistance to sensitive bacteria and play a major role in global spread of antibiotic resistance, and iv) by identifying these chemical stressors we may be able to develop tools to monitor and limit the spread of antibiotic resistance.We thus propose to combine time-resolved spatial sampling of contaminated rivers in Bangladesh, South Africa, and Sweden; chemical analysis using multiple techniques based on NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry; and highly controlled bench-scale gene transduction assays to unravel the dynamics of clinically relevant ARG spread through bacteriophages. This integrative One Health-approach thus fills an important gap in our knowledge of the control of ARG fluxes. Antibiotikaresistens är ett av mänsklighetens största medicinska problem, såväl nationellt som internationellt, i industriländer och utvecklingsländer. Enligt WHO är antibiotikaresistens ett av de största hoten mot global hälsa, livsmedelssäkerhet och utveckling idag. Detta är särskilt påtagligt i utvecklingsländer där användning av antibiotika till både människor och djur är oreglerad. Sedan den gyllene eran då antibiotika infördes har antibiotika setts som en hållbar lösning mot infektioner, men de sista decennierna har visat oss svagheten i detta resonemang. Även om vi initialt kunde behandla det stora flertalet infektioner ser vi numera infektioner som är resistenta mot majoriteten av våra nuvarande antibiotika. Exempel på infektioner som är svårbehandlade är lunginflammation, tuberkulos, gonorré och salmonella. På grund av den snabba utvecklingen och spridningen av antibiotikaresistens tillverkas numera väldigt få nya antibiotika då dessa bedöms bli verkningslösa inom en alltför snar framtid för att vara kommersiellt intressanta.Historiskt har forskning inom antibiotikaresistens av relevans för människa tagit sjukhusen som utgångspunkt, då det är där som behandlingen sker och användningen av antibiotika är hög. Ny forskning har däremot belyst att även andra delar av vårt samhälle agerar som smältdeglar för resistensutveckling, däribland vattenreningsverk och förorenade vattenkällor. Här ansamlas, precis som på sjukhusen, höga nivåer av bakterier och andra mikrober tillsammans med antibiotika och resistensgener. Förorenade vatten utgör därmed en perfekt grogrund för utveckling och spridning av resistens, även för kliniskt relevanta bakterier.Även om det är välkänt att resistensutveckling sker både på sjukhus och i andra miljöer (vattenreningsverk, förorenat vatten) är det för närvarande inte känt hur resistensgener kan spridas mellan dessa miljöer, och vad som reglerar detta. För sjukhus och reningsverk finns uppsatta metoder för att minimera spridning av resistenta bakterier, men sådana metoder saknas för andra utsatta miljöer. I utvecklingsländer saknas ofta reningsverk, och i de fall där de finns, är de ofta eftersatta med läckage som följd. Kvalitén på vatten varierar globalt och många länder har utsläppsvatten, som med svenska mått, innehåller mycket höga nivåer av föroreningar. Vi fokuserar i vårt arbete på bakteriella virus (s.k. bakteriofager), som är kända bärare av resistensgener. Dessa virus har visat sig överföra resistensgener till bakterier då de påverkas av kemiska ämnen i sin miljö. Även om detta fenomen är känt, så är de bakomliggande mekanismerna oklara. Frågor som återstår att besvara är hur detta regleras, om denna överföring av resistensgener sker i avloppsvatten och andra vattendrag (och inte bara i sjukhusmiljö), samt huruvida olika kemiska ämnen påverkar detta i olika grad.Vår forskning syftar till att beskriva hur resistensöverföring påverkas av föroreningar i vattendrag. För att möjliggöra detta kommer vi att samla in ett stort antal vattenprov från högt förorenade vatten respektive relativt rena vattendrag i tre olika länder: Bangladesh (lägst rankad på OECD:s lista), Sydafrika (högre rankat utvecklingsland) och Sverige. Vattenproven kommer att analyseras av ett batteri av olika analystekniker, vilket möjliggör en detaljerad beskrivning av vattenmiljön och dess föroreningar. Vi kommer även att undersöka resistensöverföring i dessa vattenprov. Genom att korrelera vattnets kemiska signatur med resultaten av våra resistensöverföringsförsök hoppas vi kunna identifiera kemiska ämnen som stimulerar överföring av resistensgener. Denna forskning är av stor vikt för att karaktärisera mekanismer för överföring av antibiotikaresistens samt för att identifiera de molekyler som stimulerar denna process. Denna kunskap utgör därför ett kraftfullt verktyg för att möjliggöra minskad spridning av antibiotikaresistens, och därmed angriper den en av våra nuvarande största medicinska utmaningar.

Mauretanien och Senegal är hungersnödda, fattiga länder som rankas på 85:e och 65:e plats i det globala hungersindexet. Längs ländernas gemensamma gräns rinner Senegalfloden, och dess bördiga stränder producerar majoriteten av områdets skördar. Lokalbefolkningen är beroende av jordbruk för sysselsättning och försörjning. Ris är den huvudsakliga grödan som odlas och täcker över 120 000 ha mark. Ris kan odlas under två säsonger: en mellan mars och juni då flodens rikliga vattn kan utnyttjas till bevattning, och en andra säsong mellan juli och november då jordbruket kan dra nytta av de kraftiga regnen. Harmattan pågår mellan början av december och slutet av mars, och enligt tradition är detta en paus mellan de två risodlingssäsongerna. Under denna tid på året har floden det högsta vattenflödet, men de relativt kallare förhållandena gynnar inte risodling. Med stöd av VR UF uppnåddes 2017 lanseringen av supertidiga värmetoleranta durumvetesorter vilka kan uppnå skördar på över 3 ton ha-1 efter bara 90 dagar. Dessa sorter är perfekt anpassade till odling under trädan till följd av harmattan och har potential att producera över 300 000 ton mat, som kan säljas på den nationella marknaden för över 320 € t-1, eller 96 miljoner € i extraintäkter för småbrukare, utan att påverka den nuvarande risproduktionen. Mauretaniens och Senegals konsumenter köper årligen couscous och pasta, vilka importeras som förpackade produkter för över 20 miljoner € , eller i form av 100 miljoner € vetekorn till ländernas tre industriella pastafabrikerna. Hittills har dessa nya sorter odlats på 5000 ha i de två länderna och beräknas överstiga 10% av den aktuella odlingsytan för ris inom två år. De politiska beslutsfattarna i båda länderna har erkänt projektets framgångar och har som mål att nå lokal produktion av vete på över 50% av deras årliga behov. På grund av dessa framgångar och dess potential att säkerställa livsmedelssäkerheten i länderna tilldelades teamet 2017 OLAM-priset för innovation inom livsmedelssäkerhet. Sporrade av utmärkelsen tog andra västafrikanska bönder kontakt med forskningspartnerna och begärde att få frön. Hittills har dessa värmetoleranta sorter odlats med framgång i Benin, Elfenbenskusten, Ghana, Gambia, Nigeria, Tchad och Togo. Dessutom har många länder utanför Västafrika fått god användning av värmetoleransen hos dessa sorter för att skydda sina skördar från stigande temperaturer. Vidare har denna egenskap studerats på molekylärnivå för att hitta fler regioner i  genomet som är involverade i bevarandet av pollenfertilitet vid förekomsten av torra och heta vindar i samband med blomningen, ett kritiskt steg för att säkerställa värmetolerans. Slutligen har tillämpningen av genomiska selektionsmodeller säkerställt påskyndandet av den genetiska vinsten, genom att samla  de bästa genomregionerna och leverera nya, överlägsna sorter på halva tiden.Detta projektförslag bygger på den starka forskningskapacitet som har utvecklats under de tidigare faserna av forskningsprojekt för att försöka definiera den eller de faktiska gener som är ansvariga för värmetolerans. Om detta uppnås kommer det att vara ett otroligt stort steg framåt för hela forskningsområdet. Uppfyllandet av de projektets mål kommer att gynna en bättre anpassning till klimatförändringarna i Västafrika och även globalt, vilket ytterligare höjer produktiviteten och inkomsten för lokala jordbrukare, samtidigt som man stärker självständigheten hos  landsbygdens kvinnor.

Specifically we aim to (1) establish a network for zoonotic viral infections; (2) identify etiologies of infectious diseases that are not identified by a receiving hospital; and (3) study the occurrence of viral mosquito vectors. This project will integrate knowledge and skills from experienced researchers from multiple-sectors and disciplines to focus on zoonotic viral infections. Joint workshops and trainings will be conducted where researchers will provide knowledge on their current research and practical training. Scientific new ideas will be generated for future projects. Students at Masters and PhD level will be trained on various aspects of field sampling, laboratory diagnostics, and molecular methods. We will analyse patient blood samples collected in public health facilities from different regions in Rwanda, for virus RNA by RT-PCR and viral antibodies. Mosquitoes will be sampled using conventional mosquito traps and identified by morphology and/or DNA bar-coding for genetic determination. Virus will be detected by RT-PCR and culture. This research and activities of the novel network will lead to new scientific questions regarding mosquitoborne viruses in Rwanda.  Vector-based studies in Rwanda will be set into a broader context and will lead to further studies and integration into the health system. Sjukdomar bland människor och djur hindrar den ekonomiska tillväxten i många länder i Afrika och är en av de största utmaningarna för positiv utveckling. Flera faktorer som; miljö- och klimatförändringar, förändring av markanvändningen, mer boskap och mindre vilda djur påverkar förekomsten av infektionssjukdomar. I Rwanda, liksom många andra resursfattiga länder i Afrika, finns det stora kunskapsluckor om vilka virussjukdomar som sprids genom djur till människor (zoonoser) och vi fokuserar på de virus som sprids via myggor tol människor.Det allmänna syftet av projektet är att etablera ett nätverk som kan arbeta för hållbar virusdiagnostik av zoonoser och övervakning av framtida virusepidemier i Rwanda. Specifikt strävar vi efter att skapa ett nätverk för myggburna virusinfektioner; att upptäcka infektionssjukdomar som inte diagnosticerats av ett mottagande sjukhus eller hälsocentral; och att studera förekomsten av myggor som kan överföra virussjukdomar. Detta projekt kommer att integrera kunskap och färdigheter från erfarna forskare från flera sektorer och discipliner. Gemensamma workshops och utbildningar kommer att genomföras där forskare kommer att dela med sig av kunskap om sin nuvarande forskning och där praktisk utbildning kommer att vara ett tema. Under dessa workshops kommer vi att diskutera nya vetenskapliga idéer som kan forma projekt för framtida anslagsansökningar. Studenter på master- och doktorandnivå kommer att utbildas i olika aspekter av fältprovtagning, laboratoriediagnostik och molekylära metoder. Vi kommer att analysera patientblodprover som samlats in på hälsocentraler från olika regioner i Rwanda för virus och antikroppar mot virus. Myggor kommer att samlas med konventionella myggfällor och identifieras genom morfologi och/eller DNA-sekvensering för genetisk bestämning. Virus påvisas med PCR-teknik, odling och sekvensering. Detta nya nätverk är viktigt för detektion, förebyggande och kontroll av virala zoonotiska sjukdomar.Projektets utformning underlättar överföring av kunskaper om olika metoder och färdigheter genom praktiskt erfarenhetsutbyte och träning. Vi kommer att organisera två workshops där vi fokuserar på tekniköverföring, fältarbete, praktisk erfarenhetsutbyte och diskussioner om framtida forskningsområden. Det vetenskapliga samarbetet mellan forskare i Sverige och Rwanda kommer därmed att stärkas. Lokala intressenter i Rwanda kommer att inbjudas till två möten, en i början av projektet där projektet presenteras och diskuteras. Viktiga kommentarer kan därmed läggas till i projektet i början.

Specifically we aim to (1) establish a network for zoonotic viral infections; (2) identify etiologies of infectious diseases that are not identified by a receiving hospital; and (3) study the occurrence of viral mosquito vectors. This project will integrate knowledge and skills from experienced researchers from multiple-sectors and disciplines to focus on zoonotic viral infections. Joint workshops and trainings will be conducted where researchers will provide knowledge on their current research and practical training. Scientific new ideas will be generated for future projects. Students at Masters and PhD level will be trained on various aspects of field sampling, laboratory diagnostics, and molecular methods. We will analyse patient blood samples collected in public health facilities from different regions in Rwanda, for virus RNA by RT-PCR and viral antibodies. Mosquitoes will be sampled using conventional mosquito traps and identified by morphology and/or DNA bar-coding for genetic determination. Virus will be detected by RT-PCR and culture.

These twin public health and poverty crises in low-income countries are intimately connected to policy domains that tend to be prioritized by women citizens and politicians: public health and poverty alleviation. In this project, we ask what happens when a global crisis suddenly shifts global attention towards issues historically prioritized by women. More specifically, this project explores the pandemic’s impacts on (1) the presence of women in political decision-making (descriptive representation) and on (2) the policy priorities and legislative behavior of men and women political leaders (substantive representation) in low-income countries. To address these issues, we use an innovative and ambitious mixed-method approach. We propose five separate studies, including quantitative analyzes of changes in women´s numeric representation and budget allocations in low-income countries, analyses of legislative speech data from thirteen countries in sub-Saharan Africa, a comparative case study of Malawi and Zimbabwe, and survey experiments with citizens in these two countries to gauge how citizens´ demands for women politicians have been affected by the pandemic. Den globala COVID-19-pandemin har inneburit såväl en global hälsokris som en stor fattigdomskris, särskilt påtaglig i världens mest fattiga och utsatta länder. Dessa två relaterade kriser har en nära koppling till politiska områden som historiskt har betraktats som ”lågstatusområden” bland många nationella politiska eliter men som tenderar att prioriteras av kvinnliga medborgare och kvinnliga politiker: folkhälsa och fattigdomsbekämpning.För det första har COVID-19-pandemin inneburit en enorm belastning för hälso- och sjukvårdssystemen i många låginkomstländer. Även om pandemin inte slagit lika hårt mot låginkomstländer som man först befarade har den ändå medfört en stor påfrestning för sjukvården i dessa länder. Dessutom varnar forskare för att åtgärder, som lock-downs, som vidtagits för att begränsa smittspridningen av COVID-19 i utvecklingsländer, kan komma att dramatiskt öka dödligheten från andra sjukdomar, däribland malaria. En andra och kanske ännu allvarligare och långvarigare kris, särskilt i låginkomstländer, är kopplad till de konsekvenser pandemin har haft på fattigdom och fattigdomsbekämpning. För första gången på två decennier förväntas den globala extrema fattigdomen öka, till stor del orsakad av en kombination av den globala ekonomiska lågkonjunkturen och nedstängningar som gjorts i försök att minska smittspridningen. Pandemins sociala och ekonomiska effekter riskerar också att få långtgående konsekvenser för jämställdheten i de fattigaste länderna. Prognoser från FN visar att kvinnor på många sätt drabbats hårdare av pandemin än män, med allvarliga följder för kvinnors försörjning, säkerhet och allmänna välbefinnande. I spåren av pandemin har kvinnors obetalda arbete ökat, våldet mot kvinnor har ökat och kvinnor har varit mer benägna att förlora sina jobb, eftersom sektorer där kvinnor är överrepresenterade har drabbats hårdast av smittspridningsåtgärder. Dessutom förväntats pandemin få förödande effekter på mödra- och barnadödlighet i låginkomstländer genom dess påverkan på rutinhälsovård och livsmedelsförsörjning.I det här projektet undersöker vi vad som händer när en global kris plötsligt riktar det internationella samfundets, regeringars, och befolkningars uppmärksamhet mot frågor som historiskt har prioriterats av kvinnor: fattigdomsbekämpning, hälso- och sjukvård och jämställdhet. Vilka effekter får det för kvinnors politiska representation och makt i låginkomstländer? Ökar kvinnors politiska representation och makt i spåren av pandemin, tack vare kvinnors kunskap och expertis inom dessa politikområden, eller tar den manliga politiska eliten över dessa tidigare lågstatusfrågor och begränsar kvinnliga politikers möjligheter till inflytande?För att systematiskt utforska vilken inverkan den globala pandemin har haft på kvinnors numeriska politiska representation och på könsdynamiker i parlamentet, föreslår vi feminnovativa studier. Dessa studier inkluderar kvantitativa analyser av förändringar i kvinnors numeriska representation och budgetfördelning med ett särskilt fokus på låginkomstländer, en analys av parlamentsdebatter i ett stort antal länder i Afrika söder om Sahara, en jämförande fallstudie av Malawi och Zimbabwe samt ett enkätexperiment med medborgare i dessa två länder som syftar till att mäta hur medborgarnas efterfrågan på kvinnliga politiker har påverkats av pandemin.

The overall objective is to strengthen conceptual, theoretical, methodological and practical work for decolonizing research methodologies. The programme focuses mainly on qualitative research and societal engagement in the humanities and social sciences, and is geared towards data collection, research relations, ethics, and transnational approaches in the organization and implementation of research and research training. More specifically, the programme aims: 1) to critically assess and transform the ways in which qualitative research is organized and implemented; 2) to strengthen the development of empirically grounded and critical research methodologies; 3) to interrogate fieldwork relations and research ethics; and 4) to promote transnational approaches. It is built around qualitative empirical research, and societal engagement through courses (both in situ/in persona, and online), summer schools in the collaborating countries, regular online seminar series, joint analytical workshops, collaborative publications, and a final international conference. It will seek to foster a critical, and yet practically oriented and relevant, academic culture among PhD students and faculty. Den övergripande målsättningen med programmet Decolonizing Research Methodologies är att arbeta för att avkolonisera de sätt varpå empirisk forskning genomförs i praktiken. Programmet är ett samarbete mellan burkinska, maliska, svenska och tanzaniska universitet. Det syftar till att stödja skapandet, organisationen och genomförandet av en tvärvetenskaplig forskarskola som ska samla forskare och forskningsprojekt i ett gemensamt forum av de deltagande universiteten i Sverige (Uppsala universitet, Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet och Stockholms universitet), i Burkina Faso (Nazi Boni universitetet i Bobo-Dioulasso), i Mali (Institut des Sciences Humaines) och i Tanzania (Dar es Salaam universitet). Det övergripande målet är att stärka begreppsmässigt, teoretiskt, metodologiskt och praktiskt arbete för avkolonisering av forskningsmetoder. Programmet fokuserar främst på kvalitativ forskning och samhällsengagemang inom humaniora och samhällsvetenskap, och är inriktat på empirisk datainsamling, fältarbetes- och forskningsrelationer, etiska och moraliska överväganden samt transnationella tillvägagångssätt och ansatser. Rent konkret handlar programmet om att organisera och genomföra forskning och forskarutbildning med fokus på metodfrågor. Programmets specifika målsättningar är:att kritiskt utvärdera och omvandla sätt på vilket kvalitativ forskning organiseras och genomförs;att stärka utvecklingen av empiriskt grundade och kritiska forskningsmetoder;att förhöra fältarbete och forskningsetik; ochatt främja gränsöverskridande tillvägagångssätt. Programmet är uppbyggt kring kvalitativ empirisk forskning och samhällsengagemang genom kurser (både in situ/in persona och online), sommarskolor i samarbetsländerna, regelbundna virtuella seminarieserier, gemensamma workshops och publikationer. Det kommer att sträva efter att främja en kritisk, men ändå praktiskt inriktad och samhällsengagerad och relevant, akademisk kultur bland doktorander och lärare från de deltagande universiteten. Programmet kommer att utvecklas och ges under två läsår: 2022-23 och 2023-24 och kommer att bestå av en kombination av fysiska möten och online seminarier och kursen. De stora fysiska mötena är fyra: 1) Hösten 2022 inleds med ett intensivt introduktionsseminarium i Uppsala, följt av ett kortare fältarbete i Sverige om sammanlagt en månad. Doktoranderna kommer att få tillfälle att träffa lärare och besöka bibliotek (Nordiska Afrikainstitutet, Carolina Rediviva) under vistelsen. 2) År 2022 genomförs en sommarkurs med ett mindre fältarbete i Tanzania under ledning av seniora forskare. 3) År 2023 genomförs en sommarkurs med ett mindre fältarbete i Burkina Faso eller Mali. Resultaten från dessa sommarskolor kommer att analyseras och skrivas i workshops och slutligen publiceras i Uppsala Papers in Africa Studies. 4) En international konferens kommer att anordnas i slutet av 2024 med deltagande doktorander and inbjudna talare. Därutöver kommer vi genomföra ett koordinationsmöte per år, i samband med de andra aktiviteterna, samt 4-6 vrituella möten.  De digitala kurserna och seminarierna kommer att genomföras löpande och vidareutveckla redan existerande virtuella seminarier och webinarier.

Programmet fokuserar främst på kvalitativ forskning och samhällsengagemang inom humaniora och samhällsvetenskap, och är inriktat på empirisk datainsamling, fältarbetes- och forskningsrelationer, etiska och moraliska överväganden samt transnationella tillvägagångssätt och ansatser. Rent konkret handlar programmet om att organisera och genomföra forskning och forskarutbildning med fokus på metodfrågor. Programmets specifika målsättningar är:att kritiskt utvärdera och omvandla sätt på vilket kvalitativ forskning organiseras och genomförs;att stärka utvecklingen av empiriskt grundade och kritiska forskningsmetoder;att förhöra fältarbete och forskningsetik; ochatt främja gränsöverskridande tillvägagångssätt. Programmet är uppbyggt kring kvalitativ empirisk forskning och samhällsengagemang genom kurser (både in situ/in persona och online), sommarskolor i samarbetsländerna, regelbundna virtuella seminarieserier, gemensamma workshops och publikationer. Det kommer att sträva efter att främja en kritisk, men ändå praktiskt inriktad och samhällsengagerad och relevant, akademisk kultur bland doktorander och lärare från de deltagande universiteten. Programmet kommer att utvecklas och ges under två läsår: 2022-23 och 2023-24 och kommer att bestå av en kombination av fysiska möten och online seminarier och kursen. De stora fysiska mötena är fyra: 1) Hösten 2022 inleds med ett intensivt introduktionsseminarium i Uppsala, följt av ett kortare fältarbete i Sverige om sammanlagt en månad. Doktoranderna kommer att få tillfälle att träffa lärare och besöka bibliotek (Nordiska Afrikainstitutet, Carolina Rediviva) under vistelsen. 2) År 2022 genomförs en sommarkurs med ett mindre fältarbete i Tanzania under ledning av seniora forskare. 3) År 2023 genomförs en sommarkurs med ett mindre fältarbete i Burkina Faso eller Mali. Resultaten från dessa sommarskolor kommer att analyseras och skrivas i workshops och slutligen publiceras i Uppsala Papers in Africa Studies. 4) En international konferens kommer att anordnas i slutet av 2024 med deltagande doktorander and inbjudna talare. Därutöver kommer vi genomföra ett koordinationsmöte per år, i samband med de andra aktiviteterna, samt 4-6 vrituella möten.  De digitala kurserna och seminarierna kommer att genomföras löpande och vidareutveckla redan existerande virtuella seminarier och webinarier. Teman omfattar kritisk granskning av dominerande utvecklings, policys, and globala mål; engagerad forskning för samhällsförändring; relationer under fältarbete och fältforskning i teori och praktik; etik och moral; transnationella ansatser och jämförande perspektiv; sampublikation, etc. Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Mali Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2021-05074_2-1 Sweden This programme aims to support the creation, organization, and the implementation of an interdisciplinary research school that would bring together Burkinabe, Malian, Swedish, and Tanzanian researchers and research projects together in a common collaborative framework.

However, micronutrient malnutrition or "hidden hunger" is an alarming public health issue in Sudan. More than 80% of the population are iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) deficient, while about 70% of women and pre-school children have low hemoglobin levels, mainly due to Fe deficiency. These deficiencies cause havoc to the country population through malnutrition, including stunting, respiratory tract infections, malaria, and diarrhea. Breeding pearl millet for increased grain minerals (biofortification) and improving human body processing are sustainable approaches to improving human health and well-being.Considerable variation for nutrition minerals exists in Sudanese millet varieties currently grown, landraces and wild relatives. We will exploit this variation to improve the whole-grain product´s nutritional value by using traditional practices aided by cutting-edge technology to assess nutritional minerals and select the best pearl millet germplasm. This project´s ultimate goal will be achieved through: 1) high-throughput phenotyping; 2) plant breeding strategies of reverse genetics and marker-assisted selection; 3) select superior lines for developing MAGIC population; and 4) Capacity building on research and development.The outcome of this project will develop a cost-effective sustainable solution and breeding methods for genetic enhancement of Zn and Fe in pearl millet Undernäring i form av för lågt intag av mikronäringsämnen drabbar mer än 50% av världens befolkning, särskilt kvinnor och förskolebarn. Här spelar anemi på grund av järnbrist (Fe) och zinkbrist (Zn) en stor roll, och drabbar en tredjedel respektive ungefär hälften av världens befolkning. Tankesmedjan, Köpenhamns Konsensuscentrum anser att växtförädling för ökat näringsinnehåll i grödor är en av de fem högst prioriterade åtgärderna som kan bidra till att minska utmaningarna med för lågt näringsintag. Växtförädling för att öka näringsinnehållet i grödor kan bidra till höga nivåer av mikronäringsämnen i baslivsmedel. Pärl-hirs är en stapelgröda och därmed en viktig livsmedelsgröda i den västra delen av Sudan. Fattigdom är den enskilt viktigaste faktorn som begränsar tillgång till en lämplig diet för den delen av befolkningen i Sudan som lider av undernäring. Det föreslagna projektet syftar till att förbättra hälsan hos fattiga sudaneser genom att införa gener i elitsorter av pärl-hirs som kan bidra till ökat näringsinnehåll, och för att på så sätt både förbättra innehållet och biotillgängligheten av mikronäringsämnen för befolkningen. Processade hirsprodukter kan öka tillgången till mat och bidra till en ökad variation i typer av tillgängliga livsmedel. Genom att använda växtförädling och sortframställning för att berika produkterna med viktiga mikronäringsämnen, kommer projektet att bidra till ökat näringsintag till lägre pris, vilket kommer att bidra till att minska fattigdomen. Minskad mikronäringsbrist hos befolkningen förväntas bidra till ökad produktivitet, mental och psykomotorisk prestanda och aptit, samt främja snabbare tillväxt hos fattiga på landsbygden, där den huvudsakliga dieten utgörs av stapelföda. En direkt tillgång till nya pärl-hirs sorter kommer att bidra till större sannolikhet för ekonomisk avkastning för småskaliga brukare. Projektet kommer att använda avancerad teknik för att nå målen, där flera olika metoder kommer att kombineras, tex. höghastighets tekniker med röntgen för analyser av mikronäringsämnen, molekylära analyser av de Sudanesiska pärl-hirs sorterna, kraftfulla bioinformatik plattformar för dataanalys, utveckling av prisvärd molekylära markörer som kan hjälpa växtförädlare i Afrika att utveckla nya sorter, utbildning av lokala jordbrukare och forskare gällande olika aspekter relaterade till hirs. Ett av projektets mål är att engagera de mest utsatta grupperna av kvinnor på landsbygden, barn, äldre och handikappade genom att inkludera verktyg som delaktighet och engagemang i den föreslagna verksamheten. Eftersom kvinnor har en dominerande roll inom jordbrukssystemet i den västra delen av Sudan, kommer detta projekt ge dem att ha en viktig roll i beslutsfattandet på olika samhällsnivåer. Dessutom kommer det här projektet att avsevärt minska svår undernäring bland spädbarn, barn, gravida och ammande kvinnor för de mest utsatta familjerna i västra Sudan. Huvudsyftet med projektet är att förbättra hälsostatus, livsmedelssäkerhet, minska fattigdom, förbättra försörjningen i samhällen västra delen av Sudan och förbättra de traditionella produktionssystemens bidrag till den nationella ekonomin.

There has recently been an emergence of widespread, vector-borne epidemics, including the zika outbreak in 2015-16 and the current chikungunya manifestation in parts of South America. Additionally, leishmania, malaria and other vector-borne parasitic diseases that are currently endemic in parts of South America are predicted to increase in cases and occupy larger regions with increased temperatures due to global warming. In lieu of ongoing climate change, widespread vector-borne diseases are becoming an increasing threat across Latin America, the Caribbean, as well as Africa and large regions of Asia, and tools to monitor transmission potential are becoming tremendously important. With rapid advances in data-driven science and the massive production of NGS data we have reached the potential of performing informative metadata analyses. The ultimate goal of this study is to uncover genetic information that enables the generation of molecular and computational tools with the capacity of defining vector competence linked to vector-borne diseases. We further anticipate that the tools will be modifiable to encompass studies of vector-competence linked to a broad range of disease, which in light of global warming, have the potential of causing epidemics outside the regions where they are currently endemic. Det övergripande målet för det här projektet är att implementera en datadriven strategi för att kunna förutse värdkompetens hos insekter som sprider sjukdomar, så kallade vektorer. Verktyget ska kunna implementeras för att studera sannolikheten att potentiella vektorer i geografiska regioner runt ett område där ett större utbrott sker, är mottagliga för sjukdomen och kan sprida den vidare. Detta kan på så vis vägleda aktioner för att förebygga smittspridningPå senare år har det skett en ökning i fallen av storskaliga epidemiska spridningar av vektorburna sjukdomar, såsom Zika utbrottet 2015-2016 i Latinamerika. Utbrott av virusen; dengue, yellow fever, och chikungunya har också ökat i sjukdomsfall och spridningen sker ofta oförutsett. Fall av malaria, Leishmania och andra vektorburna parasitsjukdomar i tropiska regioner förväntas också öka på grund av den globala uppvärmningen. Med hänseende till pågående klimatförändringar ökar risken för storskaliga utbrott av vektorburna sjukdomar i flera delar av världen, inklusive Latinamerika, delar av Afrika och Asien. Därmed förväntas också behovet av verktyg för att kontrollera smittspridning öka i relevans. Med den snabba utvecklingen av datadriven biologisk och medicinsk forskning och den enormt höga produktionsnivån av nästa generations sekvenserings (NGS) data, har vi nu uppnått nya möjligheter att utföra storskaliga metadata analyser.Konceptet ”värdkompetens” inkluderar en infekterad värds respons mot en invaderande mikrob, i det här fallet insektens eller vektorns tolerans eller sensitivitet till att en smittsam mikrob lyckas kolonisera insekten och uppnå förutsättningarna för att sprida sig vidare. Värdkompetens är länkat till immunsvar hos värden, exakt vad som bestämmer om en värd är mottaglig eller inte varierar men genetiska variabler som leder till tolerans är generellt konserverade inom en art och kan vara konserverade mellan olika arterMålsättningen för det här projektet är att frilägga genetisk information som tillåter genererandet av molekylära verktyg med kapacitet att studera vektorkompetens hos smittspridande vektorer. Detta kommer vi att göra genom Integrative Trancriptomic Analysis (ITA), av storskaliga NGS dataset. Metoden går ut på att nyttja all data länkad till genuttryck som finns tillgänglig i publika domäner för en viss biologisk process, det inkluderar data från alla relevanta organismer och scenarier som kan påverka den studerade processen. Metoden är därmed inte begränsad till de genetiska vägar som redan är kända. ITA är en nyutvecklad analysstrategi och kan enkelt anpassas till olika biologiska frågeställningar hos olika organismer.I projektet kommer vi att fokusera på insekterna; Aedes, myggan som sprider virussjukdomarna Zika och Chikungunya, samt Anopheles, myggan som sprider malaria och sandflugan som sprider Leishmania. Vi kommer i samarbete med kollegor i Manaus, Brasilien samla in myggor i fält och utsätta dessa för experimentella infektioner med respektive mikrob. Sedermera kommer vi utvärdera vilka som är mottagliga alternative toleranta. Insekter från båda dessa grupper kommer att analyseras för sitt totala genuttryck med hjälp av NGS applikationer. NGS datan används sedan i syfte att ”träna” ITA modellen genom maskininlärning för att förtydliga vilka gener eller genetiska processer som ligger bakom tolerans och sensitivitet mot infektion. Detta kommer sedan att valideras på funktionell nivå med CRISPR (gensaxen) i samarbete med grupper i BrasilienDen slutliga produkten är en bioinformatisk open-access resurs som kommer att kunna användas för att förutse vektorkompetens bland de vektorer inkluderade i denna studie. Målet med verktyget är att kunna replikera nödvändiga delar av denna process för att adaptera det till andra typer av vektorer/sjukdomar, samt att kunna applicera det globalt för potentiella nya sjukdomar i framtiden (epidemic preparedness), samt att människor i riskområden enkelt ska kunna implementera och använda dessa verktyg Sweden The Swedish Research Council The Swedish Research Council +46 8 546 44 000 vetenskapsradet@vr.se www.vr.se Box 1035, 101 38 Stockholm, Sweden Developing countries, unspecified Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2021-05094-1 Sweden The comprehensive goal for this project is to implement a big-data integrative analysis strategy to predict host-competence in insect vectors that transmit infectious diseases.

In Dar es Salaam, Tanzania a typical SSA country, some 70% of all cement goes to the production of sandcrete blocks. Only about 15-30% of the cement building capability is used in these applications. Since cement drives both the price and the carbon footprint this represents a huge waste affecting both people and the planet. The proposed research co-operation will join competence from Chalmers and Uppsala University in Sweden, the buidling institute BAM from Germany, Meru University in Kenya and UDSM in Tanzania to come up with transdisciplinary solutions that can lead to the subsituton of parts or all of the the ordinary cement to produce alternative binders from locally available materials for affordable, low carbon blocks produced with appropriate technology. Alternative binders are such as volcanic ashes, calcined clays and agricultural ashes. Cement är världens tredje enskilt största utsläppskälla av växthusgasen koldioxid. Bakgrunden är att Portland Cementen (PC), "vanlig cement" är limmet i betong. Betong är i sin tur världens mest producerade material och utgör grundpelaren i vårt moderna samhällsbyggande. Globalt använder vi ca 3-4 ton betong per person och år. Eftersom betong är enkel att använda på alla nivåer från enkla till komplexa tillämpningar är den svår att ersätta. Problemet med betongen är att PC - limmet i betongen - står för ca 7-9% av världens totala koldioxidutsläpp.  Det finns en tydlig korrelation mellan länders ekonomiska utveckling och cementkonsumtion, detta pulverformade lim är en tydlig möjliggörare för människors ökade välmående och länders fortsatta tillväxt. Globalt sett använder vi ca 600 kg cement per person och år medan användningen i Afrika söder om Sahara fortsatt är på bara ca 100 kg per person och år.

Both diseases require strong health systems and similar measures for containment. Covid-19 has caused illness, but also extreme economic effects in low- and middle-income countries. It is estimated that the pandemic set back poverty reduction efforts by at least a decade. RESTAKE aims to examine the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on health system functioning and community resilience in two countries, Kenya and Tanzania particularly with TB as an indicator condition. The two countries have similar health systems and sociocultural setting, but implemented contrasting pandemic containment efforts - one lenient, the other conservative. Using a comparative mixed methods case study with policy analysis, register analysis, facility surveys and qualitative data, the three year research project studies the country policies to curb Covid-19 and their effects on TB services and TB patients´ health and economic situation. Finally, we compare these case studies across the two countries. Through equal collaborations with partners in Kenya and Tanzania RESTAKE contributes towards understanding pandemic policies and their impacts, eventually contributing to preparedness policies that protect equity and services for key infectious diseases such as TB. Covid-19 har orsakat över 3 miljoner dödsfall och infekterat miljoner fler, medan tuberkulos fortsätter att döda över en miljon människor varje år. Båda pandemierna orsakar inte bara sjukdom och dödsfall, utan även allvarliga ekonomiska konsekvenser för individer och samhällen. Patienter, exponerade och andra indirekt drabbade hamnar ofta i arbetslöshet eller okompenserad sjukfrånvaro och därmed ökad fattigdom. Dessa ekonomiska effekter ökar känsligheten för tuberkulos och andra fattigdomsrelaterade sjukdomar. Regeringar globalt har genomfört policyer inklusive nedstängning för att skydda hälsosystem. Denna policy kan hjälpa hälso- och sjukvårdssystemen att hantera den akta COVID-19 situationen, men samtidigt har den potentiellt negativa effekter på vården och andra viktig samhällsfunktioner. Med tanke på det snabba inrättandet av denna typ av policy har vi inte en klar förståelse för vilken inverkan denna haft på hälsosystem och samhälle. Rapporter visar emellertid att vissa politikområden har haft negativa effekter, särskilt när det gäller tillhandahållandet av tjänster för viktiga sjukdomar och försörjningen för de fattigaste, inklusive personer med tuberkulos. RESTAKE är ett samarbete med kollegor från Tanzania och Kenya, där man undersöker motståndskraften hos hälsosystem och utsatta personer med tuberkulos under Covid-19-pandemin. Att jämföra Tanzania och Kenya är ett unikt tillfälle att studera politiska effekter, eftersom länderna använt  kontrasterande tillvägagångssätt under pandemin; det ena landet har haft långtgående begränsningar, det andra har endast haft mild åtgärder. Vi undersöker vilka begränsningsåtgärder och policyer för att stödja samhällen och hälsosystem som infördes i varje land; vilken inverkan pandemin och politiken hade på hälso- och sjukvårdssystem, inklusive organisering av tjänster och vårdpersonal, samt specifikt tuberkulosvården, vilken kräver en resursstark och välorganiserad vårdapparat som kan leverera patientcentrerad behandling i minst 6  månader. Vi undersöker också hur människor med tuberkulos i samhället upplevde sitt ekonomiska välbefinnande och tillgång till tjänster under pandemin. Vi använder tuberkulos som en indikatorsjukdom, eftersom den är starkt förknippad med socioekonomiska faktorer och konsekvenser, men också för att Covid-19 diagnos- och vårdvägar är mycket lika, hanteras av samma personal och därmed har Covid-19 potential att särskilt skapa en vårdskuld för tuberkulosvården. Vi använder en jämförande fallstudie med blandade metoder som jämför svar och situation i de två närliggande östafrikanska länderna. Fallstudier är lämpliga mönster när frågeställningen är komplex, som i vårt fall samspelet mellan regeringar, hälsovårdssystem och samhällen. Fallstudien kommer att genomföras med en undersökning av policys på nationell, regional och lokal nivå och deras effekter på hälso- och socioekonomiska resultat genom analys av policydokument, nationella och regionala data och intervjuer med informanter. Vi undersöker sedan effekterna av hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet genom en vårdbaserad kvantitativ undersökning i stads-, stads- och landsbygdsmiljö, där vi särskilt undersöker påverkan på tuberkulostjänster. Vi kombinerar denna med kvalitativa intervjuer med vårdpersonal och tuberkulosdrabbade patienter och familjemedlemmar. Slutligen gör vi en systematisk undersökning av skillnaderna mellan de två länderna. Vår fördjupade studie kommer att förbättra kunskapen om effekterna av policyer inklusive samhälsnedstängning på hälsosystem och samhällen i stort, och kommer att bidra till att förstå vilka åtgärder som behövs för att minska negative effekterna av dessa policys. I förlängningen kommer studien bidra till beredskapsplaner för pandemier som är relevant inte bara i Kenya och Tanzania utan även andra länder med begränsade sjukvårds- och samhällsresurser.

Both diseases require strong health systems and similar measures for containment. Covid-19 has caused illness, but also extreme economic effects in low- and middle-income countries. It is estimated that the pandemic set back poverty reduction efforts by at least a decade. RESTAKE aims to examine the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on health system functioning and community resilience in two countries, Kenya and Tanzania particularly with TB as an indicator condition. The two countries have similar health systems and sociocultural setting, but implemented contrasting pandemic containment efforts - one lenient, the other conservative. Using a comparative mixed methods case study with policy analysis, register analysis, facility surveys and qualitative data, the three year research project studies the country policies to curb Covid-19 and their effects on TB services and TB patients´ health and economic situation. Finally, we compare these case studies across the two countries. Through equal collaborations with partners in Kenya and Tanzania RESTAKE contributes towards understanding pandemic policies and their impacts, eventually contributing to preparedness policies that protect equity and services for key infectious diseases such as TB. Covid-19 har orsakat över 3 miljoner dödsfall och infekterat miljoner fler, medan tuberkulos fortsätter att döda över en miljon människor varje år. Båda pandemierna orsakar inte bara sjukdom och dödsfall, utan även allvarliga ekonomiska konsekvenser för individer och samhällen. Patienter, exponerade och andra indirekt drabbade hamnar ofta i arbetslöshet eller okompenserad sjukfrånvaro och därmed ökad fattigdom. Dessa ekonomiska effekter ökar känsligheten för tuberkulos och andra fattigdomsrelaterade sjukdomar. Regeringar globalt har genomfört policyer inklusive nedstängning för att skydda hälsosystem. Denna policy kan hjälpa hälso- och sjukvårdssystemen att hantera den akta COVID-19 situationen, men samtidigt har den potentiellt negativa effekter på vården och andra viktig samhällsfunktioner. Med tanke på det snabba inrättandet av denna typ av policy har vi inte en klar förståelse för vilken inverkan denna haft på hälsosystem och samhälle. Rapporter visar emellertid att vissa politikområden har haft negativa effekter, särskilt när det gäller tillhandahållandet av tjänster för viktiga sjukdomar och försörjningen för de fattigaste, inklusive personer med tuberkulos. RESTAKE är ett samarbete med kollegor från Tanzania och Kenya, där man undersöker motståndskraften hos hälsosystem och utsatta personer med tuberkulos under Covid-19-pandemin. Att jämföra Tanzania och Kenya är ett unikt tillfälle att studera politiska effekter, eftersom länderna använt  kontrasterande tillvägagångssätt under pandemin; det ena landet har haft långtgående begränsningar, det andra har endast haft mild åtgärder. Vi undersöker vilka begränsningsåtgärder och policyer för att stödja samhällen och hälsosystem som infördes i varje land; vilken inverkan pandemin och politiken hade på hälso- och sjukvårdssystem, inklusive organisering av tjänster och vårdpersonal, samt specifikt tuberkulosvården, vilken kräver en resursstark och välorganiserad vårdapparat som kan leverera patientcentrerad behandling i minst 6  månader. Vi undersöker också hur människor med tuberkulos i samhället upplevde sitt ekonomiska välbefinnande och tillgång till tjänster under pandemin. Vi använder tuberkulos som en indikatorsjukdom, eftersom den är starkt förknippad med socioekonomiska faktorer och konsekvenser, men också för att Covid-19 diagnos- och vårdvägar är mycket lika, hanteras av samma personal och därmed har Covid-19 potential att särskilt skapa en vårdskuld för tuberkulosvården. Vi använder en jämförande fallstudie med blandade metoder som jämför svar och situation i de två närliggande östafrikanska länderna. Fallstudier är lämpliga mönster när frågeställningen är komplex, som i vårt fall samspelet mellan regeringar, hälsovårdssystem och samhällen. Fallstudien kommer att genomföras med en undersökning av policys på nationell, regional och lokal nivå och deras effekter på hälso- och socioekonomiska resultat genom analys av policydokument, nationella och regionala data och intervjuer med informanter. Vi undersöker sedan effekterna av hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet genom en vårdbaserad kvantitativ undersökning i stads-, stads- och landsbygdsmiljö, där vi särskilt undersöker påverkan på tuberkulostjänster.

It drives urbanization and economic growth and is the basic ingredient to countless commodities that make us ‘modern’ —from concrete and glass, to the microchips in our high-end gadgets. While a number recent publications warn about the environmental consequences of the steeply increasing demand for sand in Sub-Saharan Africa, the deeply political dynamics of the sand business have hardly received any scholarly attention. In this proposed project, we seek to identifying how sand conflicts and contestations in Sub-Saharan Africa intersect, how different actors negotiate access, use and political voice. We will do so by establishing an international network of Swedish, British and Kenyan scholars with complementary expertise and competence, as well as extensive experience from working on natural resource conflicts across East- and West Africa. Through a combination of concrete and mutually benefiting activities, this effort will in the short term contribute to the urgent need for increased scholarly awareness of- and attention paid to the emerging political economic problems and challenges associated with sand extraction in Sub-Saharan Africa. In a longer perspective, the proposed project seeks to provide important input on how we collectively can rethink how to sustainably extract, trade and regulate a resource that underpins the promise of improved lives in many African societies. Sand är en av världens mest efterfrågade och använda naturresurser. Vi använder sand för att tillverka såväl betong som glas och mikrochips i avancerade elektroniska produkter. Sand är en faktiskt en oersättlig del i byggandet det moderna samhället och driver såväl urbanisering som ekonomisk tillväxt. Under de sista tio åren har den årliga efterfrågan på sand som används inom byggsektorn stigit trefaldigt och vi använder i världen idag 40 till 50 miljarder ton sand varje år. Men trots dess ökande användning, uppmärksammar vi sällan sandens ekonomiska och samhälleliga betydelse. Ett uttryck för detta är det ofta saknas tillförlitlig information och statistik om såväl dess omfattning, som dess sociala och miljömässiga effekter. Den ökande exploateringen av sand utgör idag en angelägen hållbarhetsutmaning, som kan få stor betydelse för uppfyllandet av flera av FNs hållbarhetsmål. I det globala syd i allmänhet, och i Afrika söder om Sahara i synnerhet, är å ena sidan utvinning av sand nödvändig för att man genom byggandet av infrastruktur ska kunna skapa långsikt ekonomisk utveckling, och därmed utrota fattigdom och minska ojämlikhet. Å andra sidan skapar sandutvinningen i sig nya utmaningar vad gäller både ojämlikhet och ekologisk hållbarhet.I Öst- och Västafrika har regeringar inte bara satt igång enorma bostadsprojekt de senaste 10 – 15 åren, utan också stora infrastruktur program för att förbättra transport- och energiförsörjningen. Dessa kräver otroliga mängder sand. I takt med att produktionen av cement har ökat kraftigt, har också allt fler motsättningar och konflikter uppstått mellan lokalsamhällen, aktörer som utvinner sand, mellanhänder och distributörer, myndigheter, och byggsektorn uppstått. Än så länge finns dock inga studier som systematiskt har försökt kartlägga den nya politiska dynamik som uppstår i Afrika längs den distributionskedja som kopplar samman lokal utvinning med den vidare handeln och användningen av sand. Syftet med det här projektet är därför att utforska de sociala, ekonomiska och politiska motsättningar och konflikter som just nu växer fram i Öst- och Västafrika, två av de regioner i världen som urbaniseras snabbast.  Genom skapandet av ett av de första forskningsnätverken i världen med fokus på politiska aspekter av sandutvinning, handel och användning, syftar projektet till att bidra till utvecklingen av en övergripande forskningsagenda för studiet av sandutvinningens politiska problematik. Med utgångspunkt i detta syfte har projektet fyra huvudmålsättningar: (1) att utveckla ett mer omfattande forskningsprojekt om detta strategiskt viktiga men än så länge outforskade ämne. (2) ta fram och öppet publicera en databas med övergripande information om motsättningar och konflikter kopplade till sand. Detta för att öka medvetenheten och kunskapen om den snabbt ökande sandutvinningens problem och utmaningar inom nätverket, men också hos civilsamhället, myndigheter och internationella organisationer. (3) Anordna en workshop med deltagare från nyckelaktörer när det gäller utvinning, handel, och användning av sand i Öst- och Västafrika. Detta dels för att få en bättre förståelse för dessa aktörers erfarenheter, intressen och perspektiv; men också för att initiera en dialog om hur sand som en naturresurs kan förvaltas på ett rättvist och hållbart sätt. (4) Möjliggöra för unga forskare att genomföra fältstudier av motsättningar och konflikter kopplade till sand i Öst- och Västafrika. Detta eftersom bristen på empirisk forskning om sandutvinning, handel och användning i Afrika söder om Sahara är mycket bristfällig.

Many of these projects are funded by China and the fast pace of construction makes them constitutive of what has been termed ‘fast urbanism’. Yet, their realisation will shape city life for decades to come. Previous studies have analysed the political and economic drivers, qualities and consequences of these projects. However, few studies have analysed the lives, experiences and imaginations of ordinary people labouring in and around the construction sites of new infrastructure projects. This knowledge gap is problematic since the situation of ordinary workers is vital for local livelihoods as well as the production and maintenance of new infrastructures. This project aims to analyse how Chinese-funded large-scale infrastructure projects in urban Africa shape local livelihood opportunities and the daily practices and experiences of infrastructure workers, and how these opportunities and practices change over time. The project analyses the situation of labourers working on, or in the vicinity of, Chinese-funded infrastructure projects in Accra (Ghana), Maputo (Mozambique), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) and Lusaka (Zambia). It involves four researchers, runs for three years, and applies qualitative methods; semi-structured interviews, observations and text analysis. The project will provide a better scientific understanding of the work behind large-scale infrastructures, useful for formulating decent work policies. Byggandet av storskalig transportinfrastruktur såsom vägar, järnvägar och flygplatser ökar snabbt i afrikanska städer. Många av dessa projekt finansieras av Kina och deras raska uppbyggnad gör dem till en viktig ingrediens i vad som kommit att kallas ’snabb urbanism’. Samtidigt kommer deras implementering att påverka livet i dessa städer under lång tid framöver.Tidigare forskning om nutida storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt i det urbana Afrika fokuserar på projektens ekonomiska och politiska bakomliggande idéer, egenskaper och konsekvenser. Däremot har få studier analyserat arbetet som ligger till grund för genomförandet av storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt i afrikanska städer. Vi vet att nya infrastrukturprojekt bidrar med nya arbetstillfällen, både inom byggarbetsplatserna och i deras omedelbara närhet där bland annat gatuförsäljare etablerar sig för att erbjuda varor och tjänster till infrastrukturarbetare och andra som rör sig i närheten. Givet att många afrikanska städer uppvisar hög arbetslöshet är dessa nya inkomstmöjligheter önskvärda. Samtidigt är dessa arbetstillfällen ofta tidsbegränsade och det har rapporterats om dåliga arbetsvillkor och hur exempelvis gatuförsäljare tvångsförflyttas från dessa platser när infrastrukturen står färdig.Bristen på kunskap om arbetet bakom storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt är problematisk eftersom arbetarnas situation och deras insatser är avgörande för lokala försörjningsstrategier samt skapandet och underhållet av ny infrastruktur. Det här projektet syftar till att analysera hur storskaliga Kinafinansierade infrastrukturprojekt i det urbana Afrika påverkar lokala försörjningsmöjligheter och infrastrukturarbetares vardagliga praktiker och erfarenheter, samt hur dessa möjligheter och praktiker förändras över tid. Forskningsfrågorna undersöker vilka inkomstmöjligheter nya infrastrukturprojekt skapar för olika grupper av arbetare, hur arbetsvillkoren ser ut för dessa grupper, samt hur inkomstmöjligheterna förändras över tid i relation till infrastrukturens olika faser av implementering, färdigställande och underhåll.Projektet bygger på den växande litteraturen om infrastruktur inom samhällsvetenskaperna, där infrastruktur förstås som en process vilken kan studeras för att ge insikter om samhällsutvecklingen i stort. Mer specifikt bygger vi vidare på forskningen kring infrastruktur och vardagsliv i städer för att undersöka hur byggarbetare och andra som etablerar ekonomisk verksamhet i närheten av ny Kinafinansierad infrastruktur påverkas och relaterar till dessa projekt. Projektet innefattar fyra forskare och kommer att pågå under tre år. Vi kommer att analysera och jämföra situationen för arbetare inom, och i närheten av, kinesiskt finansierade transportinfrastrukturprojekt i Accra (Ghana), Maputo (Moçambique), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) och Lusaka (Zambia) - fyra platser som upplever en hög kinesisk närvaro. Den komparativa ansatsen innebär att vi kommer att kunna visa på likheter och skillnader i infrastrukturarbetares situation i olika afrikanska kontexter, vilket blir ett viktigt bidrag till tidigare forskning om ny infrastruktur i det urbana Afrika. Kvalitativa metoder inklusive semistrukturerade intervjuer, observationer, samt text- och mediaanalys kommer att användas. Resultaten kommer att publiceras vid konferenser och i vetenskapliga tidskrifter. Vi kommer också författa en populärvetenskaplig rapport som kommer att cirkuleras till relevanta institutioner och organisationer. Utöver detta kommer vi att presentera resultaten från projektet vid seminarier i de fyra städerna, dit relevanta samhällsaktörer kommer att bjudas in.Detta projekt kommer bidra med ny kunskap om arbetet bakom nutida storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt i Afrika, vilken är av betydelse både för den växande forskningslitteraturen om infrastruktur och för samhällets förmåga att minska fattigdom genom skapandet och upprätthållandet av arbetstillfällen med anständiga arbetsvillkor.

Givet att många afrikanska städer uppvisar hög arbetslöshet är dessa nya inkomstmöjligheter önskvärda.

Mer specifikt bygger vi vidare på forskningen kring infrastruktur och vardagsliv i städer för att undersöka hur byggarbetare och andra som etablerar ekonomisk verksamhet i närheten av ny Kinafinansierad infrastruktur påverkas och relaterar till dessa projekt.

Den komparativa ansatsen innebär att vi kommer att kunna visa på likheter och skillnader i infrastrukturarbetares situation i olika afrikanska kontexter, vilket blir ett viktigt bidrag till tidigare forskning om ny infrastruktur i det urbana Afrika. Kvalitativa metoder inklusive semistrukturerade intervjuer, observationer, samt text- och mediaanalys kommer att användas. Resultaten kommer att publiceras vid konferenser och i vetenskapliga tidskrifter.

Many of these projects are funded by China and the fast pace of construction makes them constitutive of what has been termed ‘fast urbanism’. Yet, their realisation will shape city life for decades to come. Previous studies have analysed the political and economic drivers, qualities and consequences of these projects. However, few studies have analysed the lives, experiences and imaginations of ordinary people labouring in and around the construction sites of new infrastructure projects. This knowledge gap is problematic since the situation of ordinary workers is vital for local livelihoods as well as the production and maintenance of new infrastructures. This project aims to analyse how Chinese-funded large-scale infrastructure projects in urban Africa shape local livelihood opportunities and the daily practices and experiences of infrastructure workers, and how these opportunities and practices change over time. The project analyses the situation of labourers working on, or in the vicinity of, Chinese-funded infrastructure projects in Accra (Ghana), Maputo (Mozambique), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) and Lusaka (Zambia). It involves four researchers, runs for three years, and applies qualitative methods; semi-structured interviews, observations and text analysis. The project will provide a better scientific understanding of the work behind large-scale infrastructures, useful for formulating decent work policies. Byggandet av storskalig transportinfrastruktur såsom vägar, järnvägar och flygplatser ökar snabbt i afrikanska städer. Många av dessa projekt finansieras av Kina och deras raska uppbyggnad gör dem till en viktig ingrediens i vad som kommit att kallas ’snabb urbanism’. Samtidigt kommer deras implementering att påverka livet i dessa städer under lång tid framöver.Tidigare forskning om nutida storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt i det urbana Afrika fokuserar på projektens ekonomiska och politiska bakomliggande idéer, egenskaper och konsekvenser. Däremot har få studier analyserat arbetet som ligger till grund för genomförandet av storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt i afrikanska städer. Vi vet att nya infrastrukturprojekt bidrar med nya arbetstillfällen, både inom byggarbetsplatserna och i deras omedelbara närhet där bland annat gatuförsäljare etablerar sig för att erbjuda varor och tjänster till infrastrukturarbetare och andra som rör sig i närheten. Givet att många afrikanska städer uppvisar hög arbetslöshet är dessa nya inkomstmöjligheter önskvärda. Samtidigt är dessa arbetstillfällen ofta tidsbegränsade och det har rapporterats om dåliga arbetsvillkor och hur exempelvis gatuförsäljare tvångsförflyttas från dessa platser när infrastrukturen står färdig.Bristen på kunskap om arbetet bakom storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt är problematisk eftersom arbetarnas situation och deras insatser är avgörande för lokala försörjningsstrategier samt skapandet och underhållet av ny infrastruktur. Det här projektet syftar till att analysera hur storskaliga Kinafinansierade infrastrukturprojekt i det urbana Afrika påverkar lokala försörjningsmöjligheter och infrastrukturarbetares vardagliga praktiker och erfarenheter, samt hur dessa möjligheter och praktiker förändras över tid. Forskningsfrågorna undersöker vilka inkomstmöjligheter nya infrastrukturprojekt skapar för olika grupper av arbetare, hur arbetsvillkoren ser ut för dessa grupper, samt hur inkomstmöjligheterna förändras över tid i relation till infrastrukturens olika faser av implementering, färdigställande och underhåll.Projektet bygger på den växande litteraturen om infrastruktur inom samhällsvetenskaperna, där infrastruktur förstås som en process vilken kan studeras för att ge insikter om samhällsutvecklingen i stort. Mer specifikt bygger vi vidare på forskningen kring infrastruktur och vardagsliv i städer för att undersöka hur byggarbetare och andra som etablerar ekonomisk verksamhet i närheten av ny Kinafinansierad infrastruktur påverkas och relaterar till dessa projekt. Projektet innefattar fyra forskare och kommer att pågå under tre år. Vi kommer att analysera och jämföra situationen för arbetare inom, och i närheten av, kinesiskt finansierade transportinfrastrukturprojekt i Accra (Ghana), Maputo (Moçambique), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) och Lusaka (Zambia) - fyra platser som upplever en hög kinesisk närvaro. Den komparativa ansatsen innebär att vi kommer att kunna visa på likheter och skillnader i infrastrukturarbetares situation i olika afrikanska kontexter, vilket blir ett viktigt bidrag till tidigare forskning om ny infrastruktur i det urbana Afrika. Kvalitativa metoder inklusive semistrukturerade intervjuer, observationer, samt text- och mediaanalys kommer att användas. Resultaten kommer att publiceras vid konferenser och i vetenskapliga tidskrifter.

The project uses a unique set of previously established multispecies plantations in Rwanda along an elevation/temperature gradient with water treatments to simulate future climate conditions and to study their impact on the growth of 20 tree species belonging to different groups, montane vs. transitional and early vs. late successional species. The productivity and survival of trees as well as how tree carbon allocation interacts with the environment will be studied over three years. Year 1: Tree biomass estimates and development of species-specific allometric biomass functions. Year 2: Explore the tree carbon allocation and functional traits and how they control drought and temperature sensitivity. Year 3: Compile and evaluate data in combination with development of planting recommendations.

Tropiska regnskogar är jordens mest artrika och produktiva ekosystemtyp och har en viktig roll för vår planets biodiversitet och klimat. Trots det vet vi förhållandevis lite om deras känslighet för pågående klimatförändringar. Ökad dödlighet under ovanligt varma och torra år (s.k. El Niño-år) tyder på att tropiska träd är mycket klimatkänsliga, men kunskapen är begränsad. I många tropiska områden har stora arealer skog försvunnit och omvandlats till odlings- och betesmark. Detta leder till problem med erosion, biodiversitetsförlust, och ett varmare och torrare klimat. På många håll försöker man därför återplantera skog. Det finns då flera fördelar med att använda naturligt förekommande arter eftersom dessa bidrar till högre biodiversitet, både bland växter och andra organismer, än exotiska och snabbväxande som ofta används. En osäkerhetsfaktor som hämmar hållbar plantering av inhemska tropiska trädarter är att vi vet så lite om deras egenskaper beträffande produktion, kvalitet och klimatkänslighet. Det övergripande syftet med detta projekt är att ta reda på hur produktionen och överlevnaden av vanliga inhemska trädarter i Öst- och Centralafrika påverkas av ett varmare och torrare klimat samt stödja hållbara trädplanteringar och skogliga ekosystemtjänster. Baserat på denna kunskap kommer vi att ta fram rekommendation om vilka trädarter som kan användas i olika delar av Rwanda, ett tätt befolkat och fattigt land i centrala Afrika med ambitiösa mål för ökad areal med träd samtidigt med högt ställda målen för en hållbar utveckling av landsbygden.I projektet studerar vi 20 tropiska trädarter som naturligt växer i bergsregnskog eller i övergången mellan regnskog och savann i Rwanda. För detta har vi etablerat planteringar med 5400 träd på tre platser med stor variation i höjd över havet (1300-2400 m), nederbörd (850-1750 mm) och temperatur (14-21 °C). De högst belägna platserna ligger i bergsregnskog medan de lägsta ligger i områden som naturligt domineras av buskvegetation och som är varmare och torrare än de utvalda trädarternas naturliga miljöer. Ett steg nedåt i höjd för en viss art representerar ett möjligt framtida klimatscenario. Vi kommer att manipulera vatten- och näringstillgången för att kunna separera effekter av temperatur, nederbörd och näringstillgång. På alla platser kommer vi att plantera både pionjärarter (som snabbt kan kolonisera nya områden) och klimaxarter (som dominerar i skogar utan störningar). Vi kommer att studera trädens produktion och överlevnad i förhållande till behandlingarna: temperatur, vatten och näring. Dessutom kommer vi att undersöka hur tillväxten av olika delar av träden (blad, stam, rötter) påverkas av de olika behandlingarna eftersom detta påverkar förmågan att klara t.ex torka. Vi kommer också att jämföra produktion och överlevnad hos olika trädarter med deras fotosyntes, värmetolerans och andra fysiologiska egenskaper som potentiellt styr hur trädens tillväxt, vitalitet och överlevnad påverkas av ökad temperatur och längre perioder av torka. Trädens förmåga att anpassa sig till ett förändrat klimat kommer att bestämmas. Vi kommer också att jämföra resultaten från experimenten i höjdgradienten med studier av tillväxt hos träd i naturliga och planterade bestånd för att utvärdera resultatens relevans i samarbete med lokala aktörer. Resultaten kommer att kommuniceras med både lokala myndigheter och andra aktörer för att tillsammans analysera effekter på olika ekosystemtjänster.

El Niño-år) tyder på att tropiska träd är mycket klimatkänsliga, men kunskapen är begränsad. I många tropiska områden har stora arealer skog försvunnit och omvandlats till odlings- och betesmark. Detta leder till problem med erosion, biodiversitetsförlust, och ett varmare och torrare klimat. På många håll försöker man därför återplantera skog. Det finns då flera fördelar med att använda naturligt förekommande arter eftersom dessa bidrar till högre biodiversitet, både bland växter och andra organismer, än exotiska och snabbväxande som ofta används. En osäkerhetsfaktor som hämmar hållbar plantering av inhemska tropiska trädarter är att vi vet så lite om deras egenskaper beträffande produktion, kvalitet och klimatkänslighet. Det övergripande syftet med detta projekt är att ta reda på hur produktionen och överlevnaden av vanliga inhemska trädarter i Öst- och Centralafrika påverkas av ett varmare och torrare klimat samt stödja hållbara trädplanteringar och skogliga ekosystemtjänster. Baserat på denna kunskap kommer vi att ta fram rekommendation om vilka trädarter som kan användas i olika delar av Rwanda, ett tätt befolkat och fattigt land i centrala Afrika med ambitiösa mål för ökad areal med träd samtidigt med högt ställda målen för en hållbar utveckling av landsbygden.I projektet studerar vi 20 tropiska trädarter som naturligt växer i bergsregnskog eller i övergången mellan regnskog och savann i Rwanda. För detta har vi etablerat planteringar med 5400 träd på tre platser med stor variation i höjd över havet (1300-2400 m), nederbörd (850-1750 mm) och temperatur (14-21 °C). De högst belägna platserna ligger i bergsregnskog medan de lägsta ligger i områden som naturligt domineras av buskvegetation och som är varmare och torrare än de utvalda trädarternas naturliga miljöer. Ett steg nedåt i höjd för en viss art representerar ett möjligt framtida klimatscenario. Vi kommer att manipulera vatten- och näringstillgången för att kunna separera effekter av temperatur, nederbörd och näringstillgång. På alla platser kommer vi att plantera både pionjärarter (som snabbt kan kolonisera nya områden) och klimaxarter (som dominerar i skogar utan störningar). Vi kommer att studera trädens produktion och överlevnad i förhållande till behandlingarna: temperatur, vatten och näring. Dessutom kommer vi att undersöka hur tillväxten av olika delar av träden (blad, stam, rötter) påverkas av de olika behandlingarna eftersom detta påverkar förmågan att klara t.ex torka. Vi kommer också att jämföra produktion och överlevnad hos olika trädarter med deras fotosyntes, värmetolerans och andra fysiologiska egenskaper som potentiellt styr hur trädens tillväxt, vitalitet och överlevnad påverkas av ökad temperatur och längre perioder av torka. Trädens förmåga att anpassa sig till ett förändrat klimat kommer att bestämmas. Vi kommer också att jämföra resultaten från experimenten i höjdgradienten med studier av tillväxt hos träd i naturliga och planterade bestånd för att utvärdera resultatens relevans i samarbete med lokala aktörer. Resultaten kommer att kommuniceras med både lokala myndigheter och andra aktörer för att tillsammans analysera effekter på olika ekosystemtjänster. Resultaten kommer också ligga till grund för rekommendationer av artval i olika typer av planteringar.

However, pig production has never really picked up due to repeated outbreaks of African swine fever (ASF) causing nearly 100% mortality of affected pigs. The spread of ASF out of Africa is a significant threat to global food security. The epidemiology of ASF virus in the Kenyan wild reservoirs is insufficiently understood. Specifically, do warthogs and ticks carry more diverse ASFV genotypes than domestic pigs? What is the prevalence of the virus in warthog populations across ecological zones? We focus on these questions as warthogs and their soft ticks are territorial and have a long lifespan, and may serve as sentinels for understanding the virus´s epidemiology, evolution, and ecology. Our objectives are to determine seroprevalence of ASFV across distinct sub-populations of warthogs, determine virus genotypes in hard and soft ticks in Kenya, and leverage knowledge, technology and skills from Sweden to build capacity in quality research, dissemination, and publication. The key activities include sampling multiple populations of warthogs for blood and sera, as well as ticks on their bodies, and soft ticks from warthog burrows. The expected outcomes are new data on the prevalence of ASFV in warthogs, genetic diversity, and evolution. Our networking will establish collaboration for advancing ASFV research. Syftet med projektet är att generera ny kunskap om afrikansk svinpestvirus (ASFV). Denna kunskap behövs som bas för förebyggande och kontroll av sjukdomen. Vi kommer genomföra studien i Kenya, där sjukdomen ursprungligen upptäcktes och ännu förorsakar djurlidande och stora ekonomiska förluster. Dessa förluster är förödande för fattigamänniskor på landsbygden, i synnerhet i låg- och medelinkomstländer där grisproduktion kan vara en förutsättning för att kunna försörja sig. Utöver att vara en viktig proteinkälla för hushållet är grisar också en viktig inkomstkälla för många unga och kvinnor i Kenya. Därför är de ofta förekommande utbrotten av ASF, som orsakar extremt hög dödlighet, och tvingar djurägarna att avliva kvarvarande djur för att kontrollera sjukdomen, förödande för de mest utsatta delara av befolkningen som förlora sitt levebröd. ASFV har spridits från Afrika till Europa och Asien, med massiva sjukdomsutbrott och stora ekonomiska förluster som följd, vilket gjort sjukdomen till ett hot mot den globala livsmedelsförsörjningen. Mjuka fästingar kan härbärgera ASFV, och sprida den mellan vilda grisarter som fungerar som reservoarer för smittan.  I Kenya är så kallade bush pigs och vårtsvin naturliga reservoarer för ASFV, och kan bära på smittan utan att själva uppvisa sjukdomssymtom. I andra regioner kan vilda grisarter såsom europeiska vildsvin upprätthålla smittan. Tamgrisar infekteras när de vistas i en miljö där vilda grisarter utsöndrar och sprider smittan, eller angrips av fästingar som bär på viruset.  Det saknas tillförlitlig information om hur utbredd ASFV är i vårtsvinspopulationen i Kenya, eller var i landet smittan förekommer. Sådan information behövs för att kunna planera förebyggande åtgärdwer och bekämpning av sjukdomen. Att kunna identifiera högriskområden, där riktade insatser för övervakning och kontroll skulle förbättra och effektivisera resursutnyttjandet. Tidigare studier har påvisat att ett flertal olika typer av ASFV, men det är okänt exakt vilka som förekommer bland vårtsvin och fästingar i Kenya. Därför undrar vi om fästingar och vårtsvin bär på samma virustyper? Tidigare forskning har också visat att bristen på data över olika typer av ASFV hindrar förståelsen av sjukdomen och försvårar utveckling av vaccin och kontrollstrategier. Därför är vårt första mål att kartlägga förekomsten av ASFV-antikroppar hos vårtsvin, för att bedöma hur många som exponerats för smittan. Det andra målet är att påvisa vilka olika typer av ASFV som cirkulerar bland vårtsvin och fästingar i Kenya. Det tredje målet är att stärka forskningskapaciteten i Kenya, för att tackla problem i låg- och medelinkomstländer, vilket är viktigt för långsiktig nytta av svenskt bistånd. Vi kommer fånga vårtsvin och ta blodprov från dem. Innan de släpps fria kommer också fästingar som de bär på plockas bort, och fästingar som finns i deras bon samlas in. Blodproverna kommer användas för påvisande av antikroppar mot ASFV. Fästingarna kommer artbestämmas och undersökas för om de bär på ASFV. Påvisade ASFV kommer analyseras vidare för att kartlägga vilka typer de tillhör, och sedan jämföras med tidigare påvisade virustyper från olika delar av världen. Effektivare kontroll och förebyggande av smitta från vilda djur är nödvändigt för hållbar utveckling av grisproduktionen i Östafrika. Bättre förståelse för infektionsepdiemiologin kan också bidra signifikant till kontroll av ASFV i andra länder med liknande situation, såsom flertalet afrikanska länder. Projektet använder moderna molekylärbiologiska metoder för att skapa nya insikter kring den uråldriga sjukdomscykel som driver ASFV-infektionen i Afrika.

Vi kommer fånga vårtsvin och ta blodprov från dem. Innan de släpps fria kommer också fästingar som de bär på plockas bort, och fästingar som finns i deras bon samlas in. Blodproverna kommer användas för påvisande av antikroppar mot ASFV. Fästingarna kommer artbestämmas och undersökas för om de bär på ASFV. Påvisade ASFV kommer analyseras vidare för att kartlägga vilka typer de tillhör, och sedan jämföras med tidigare påvisade virustyper från olika delar av världen. Effektivare kontroll och förebyggande av smitta från vilda djur är nödvändigt för hållbar utveckling av grisproduktionen i Östafrika. Bättre förståelse för infektionsepdiemiologin kan också bidra signifikant till kontroll av ASFV i andra länder med liknande situation, såsom flertalet afrikanska länder. Projektet använder moderna molekylärbiologiska metoder för att skapa nya insikter kring den uråldriga sjukdomscykel som driver ASFV-infektionen i Afrika.

It examines how state provision or denial of resources, such as business support packages and appropriate infrastructures, to informal workers during the pandemic relates to constructions of informality as (il)legitimate. The study also investigates how informal workers, in diverse ways, may contest or act upon unjust distributions and the excessive inequities that the pandemic has brought into relief, and how they possibly articulate new claims for recognition. This involves exploring how possibilities for collectively organising and articulating demands have changed during the pandemic. The project will pursue the following research questions: What determines access by informal workers to business support packages created to facilitate recovery and mitigate the economic impacts of the pandemic? What initiatives have emerged during the pandemic to adress the inadequacies of vending infrastructures (sanitation, proper stalls etc)? What new claims are informal workers possibly articulating in the context of the pandemic? The project will apply qualititative methods and investigate these dynamics in four African cities: Dar-es-Salaam (Tanzania), Kitwe (Zambia), Blantyre (Malawi) and Accra (Ghana). Detta projekt syftar till att generera ny kunskap om processer som formar möjligheterna till ekonomisk återhämtning och politiskt erkännande av informellt arbete i samband med COVID-19-pandemin i det urban Afrika. Den undersöker hur statlig tillhandahållande eller förnekande av resurser, såsom stödpaket och infrastruktur, till informella arbetare under pandemin relaterar till konstruktioner av informalitet som (il)legitima. Studien undersöker också hur informella arbetare på olika sätt kan bestrida eller agera mot orättvisa fördelningar och de alltför stora orättvisor som pandemin har lett till, och hur de eventuellt formulerar nya anspråk på politiskt erkännande. Studien undersöker även hur möjligheterna att kollektivt organisera och formulera krav har förändrats under pandemin.

Torka tillsammans med lågt näringsanvändnings effektivitet är ett stort problem i det Etiopiska jordbruket och leder ofta till stora skördeförluster fattigdomen i landet Problemet är särskilt relevant eftersom den globala utvecklingen tyder på att olika abiotiska stressituationer för växter kommer att öka framöver på grund av klimatförändringar. Vi föreslår här en studie för att öka växternas tolerans mot olika stressituationer genom användning av markorganismer som kan öka grödornas tolerans mot stressfaktorer, särskilt torka och fosforbrist. Användning av naturligt förekommande jordmikroorganismer med positiv inverkan på växternas tillväxt och hälsa är ett attraktivt alternativ till konventionella jordbruksmetoder. Sådana mikroorganismer kan underlätta växternas vatten- och näringsupptag, samt kan motverka flera olika typer av stress som kan drabba växter. De positiva effekterna som många av dessa mikroorganismer har på växter förmedlas av en rad mekanismer, inklusive förbättrat upptag av mineralnäring, förbättring av plantornas tolerans mot biologisk och icke biologisk stress, modifiering av rotutveckling samt hämning av jordburna sjukdomar. De bakteriella egenskaper som är inblandade i dessa aktiviteter inkluderar kvävefixering, upplösning av fosfater, bindning av järn, syntes av fytohormoner, anpassning av växtens etylennivåer samt kontroll av fytopatogena mikroorganismer. Det är känt att vissa bakterier i rotzonen har utvecklats tillsammans med växtrötter i under årtusenden och flera system i växter och bakterier är kända för att ha utvecklat system som utlöser tillgängliga resurser och initierar metabolisk tillväxt vilket behövs i olika stressituationer. På så sätt reglerar energikänsliga system genuttrycken på många nivåer för att tillåta flexibilitet i växternas omfattande stressförsvar. Moderna växtsorter har förlorat många viktiga genetiska förmågor för anpassning till biologiska och abiotiska stressfaktorer vilka annars finns naturligt i vilda arter och populationer. Därför inkluderar vårt system vilda spannmålsgenetiska resurser från sina naturliga utvecklingsplatser. Vi har under de senaste åren utvecklat en metod för användning av markmikroorganismer för att öka torktolerans i stråsäd odlad under kontrollerade förhållanden och i Uganda och  Egyptiska fält. I det föreslagna projektet vill vi utveckla denna teknik för användning i Etiopiska fälten. Framstegen inom nästa generations sekvenseringsteknologier (NGS) har underlättat precisionshanteringen av de mikrobiella isolatema och deras konsortier i naturliga miljöer. NGS metoderna kommer att användas för systematisk screening av hårda miljöisolat från de spannmålets vilda föräldrarna rhizosphere. Isolaten kommer att valideras för deras tillväxtfrämjande  torktolerans och roll i upptag av växtnäringsämnen. De bästa isolaten kommer att lagras i den etiopiska PGPR biobanken. Särskild fokus ligger på förbättrad kommunikation av metodutvecklingen mellan forskare i Sverige och Etiopien, och medpotentiella användare av metoden i Etiopien. Vi kommer exempelvis att försöka skapa lokala initiativgrupper för informationsspridning och produktutveckling i Etiopien som diskuterar tekniken med berörda parter inom ramen för konferenser  som planeras inom projektet. Inom detta projekt ger en kombination av praktisk fältforskning och molekylära forskningsmetoder en unik möjlighet för att på sikt öka avkastning av viktiga grödor i Etiopien på ett miljövänligt och ekologiskt hållbart sätt.

KAF156 har visat sig vara ett oralt administrerbart, mycket potent malariamedel som inte associerats till signifikanta biverkningar. An KAF156-lumefantrin studie planeras vara tillgänglig inom 5 års tid och förväntas vara en stor tillgång i den kampen mot malaria under nästa årtionde. Men tyvärr har KAF156 en akilleshäl. Studier har visat att resistenta parasiter enkelt selekteras fram in vitro. Den här fenotypen är associerad till mutationer i genen pfcarl. Det är essentiellt att undersöka om dessa resistenta parasiter också är resistenta in vivo, när parasiterna exponeras för terapeutiska nivåer av KAF156. I det här projektet kommer vi att försöka bättre förstå basen för den resistenta fenotypen, eftersom den verkar uppstå efter mer genetiska förändringar än bara de som uppstår I pfcarl genen.Projektet kommer att starta genom att selektera resistenta parasiter I laboratorium genom att exponera parasit för succesivt ökande KAF156 koncentrationer eller genom att exponera dem för höga KAF156 koncentrationer och då detektera parasit som redan är resistenta. Resistenta parasite kommer därefter att få sitt genom sekvenserat och det kommer att jämföras med icke resistenta parasiters genom. Nya mutationer som uppstått under kommer att detekteras. Vi förväntas oss att mutationer inte bara uppstått I pfcarl genen utan också I andra gener.Nästa fas är att exponera parasiterna för samma koncentrationer av KAF156 som i patienternas blod under klinisk behandling. För att göra detta kommer vi att använda en ny approach. Med hjälp av datorkontrollerade hög-precision pumpar kommer vi att simulera läkemedlets verkliga farmakokinetik. Helt resistenta parasit bör då lunna tåla en full simulerad behandlingscykel. Dessa experiment kommer att svara på en viktig fråga, om den observerade in vitro fenotypen är en reell indikation för hur läkemedlet kommer att fundera in vivo.Vi vill också förstå mer runt FKAF156 farmakologiska egenskaper, som inte har studerats I detalj men som är av praktisk betydelse. Finns synergieffekter med andra malariamedel, t.ex. lumefantrin. Gör KAF156 resistent parasiterna mer känsliga för andra malariamedel, vilken skulle öppna upp för framtida kombinationsbehandlingar.

At present, Bolivia has the highest rate of vector and congenital transmission, and the old rural profile of the disease is changing rapidly into urban. Recent epidemiological data indicates that all the capital cities of the 9 Bolivian departments still have new cases of Chagas disease in children under fifteen. in Bolivia, there is active vector transmission of the parasite, as well as vertical or congenital transmission from infected mothers to their children, during pregnancy, blood transfusions and oral transmission, via food contaminated with triatomine feces. Despite vector control efforts, there is still a high number of seropositives, cases of congenital Chagas disease and cases of sudden death through cardiac compromise. The diagnosis of Chagas diseases is performed using commercial kits, but, these are problematic, since they are not specific, for the parasite strains that occur in Bolivia. By starting this network, we will combine clinical skills from Bolivia with molecular parasitologists from Brazil and comparative parasite genomics from Sweden to carry out a large field study, combined with comparative genomics and identification of new antigens for diagnostics of Bolivian strains. This will result in improved treatment and monitoring of the disease. Chagas sjukdom är en viktig och spridd orsak till hjärtsjukdom, förstorad matstrupe och förstorad tjocktarm i Latinamerika, där den parasit som orsakar sjukdomen, Trypanosoma cruzi, sprids via insekter. Medan parasiten ofta orsakar akut sjukdom, märker många inte av sjukdomen förrän efter flera år eller till och med årtionden, då många utvecklar kroniska symptom. Flera miljoner människor lider idag av sjukdomen. Antiparatitiska läkemedel är bara delvis effektiva för akut sjukdom och fungerar inte alls för den kroniska fasen. Förutom människor, kan T. cruzi infektera många andra däggdjur, och många av dessa fungerar som reservoirer för smittan som gör den svårare att bekämpa. Sjukdomsfall har rapporterats i framför allt hundar och apor. Det finns säkert många andra djur med sjukdomen, men detta är mycket underrapporterat. Chagas sjukdom sprids vanligtvis av en typ av blodsugande skinnbaggar (triatomines, kissing bugs). Dessa insekter och derar spillning kan också kontaminera mat och dryck, tex frukt juicer, vilket ofta resulterar i livshotande utbrott av akut Chagas sjukdom. I Syd- och Centralamerika går parasiterna fram och tillbaks mellan insekter och vilda djur och tamdjur. Visa triatomin-arter lever enbart utanför städer och byar, medan adra har anpassat sig till att leva i eller nära bebyggelse, speciellet i områden med låg standard på husen. Insekterna hittar där sprickor och andra ställen att gömma sig på under dagen, och dom kommer fram under natten för att suga blod. Kampanjer för att förbättra hus och för att minska mängden insekter nära bebyggelse, tillsammans med ökad testning för parasiter har gradvis minska spridningen av sjukdomen i många områden i Syd- och Mellanamerika. Chagas sjukdom har mer nyligen blivit et större problem också i andra länder, pga ökad migration. I dessa länder känner läkare ofta inte igen symptomen och behandlig finns inte tillgänglig.Chagas sjukdom är fortfarande mycket vanlig i Bolivia, på grund av fattigsom och brist på resurser. Ett stort problem är bristen på efftektiva test för att se om människor är infekterade. Det finns kommersiella test, men dessa är utvecklade för stammar av parasiten som inte finns i Bolivia och testerna är därför inte pålitliga.

By taking advantage of the ecosystem services provided by nature to deliver specific benefits, sustainability and urban life quality can be improved, and trees are an essential green infrastructure component. However, long-term vitality is often low for urban trees, due to unfavourable growing conditions and lack of knowledge on suitable species. This is particularly true in Ethiopia, where a small amount of exotic, ill-adapted species are dominating the urban tree population, despite the large indigenous species diversity.The overall aim of the project is thus to increase the deliverance of needed ecosystem services from urban trees in Ethiopia by increasing the knowledge on suitable native species. Such focus has the potential to improve sustainability of urban development, sustain native species diversity and increase life quality for urban dwellers. The objectives are to identify which ecosystem services are mostly needed from the trees, and which indigenous trees that can both deliver the needed ecosystem services and endure the harsh urban growing conditions. Workshops with stakeholders will be combined with field studies of both relevant species and urban growth conditions, as well controlled experiments on drought tolerance for selected species. Träd i städer fyller många viktiga funktioner genom de ekosystemtjänster som de levererar. De bidrar bland annat med estetiska kvaliteter, liksom till att sänka temperaturer och ta hand om dagvatten. Dessa funktioner blir extra viktiga i takt med att städer breder ut sig, och det blir svårare att skapa hållbara stadsmiljöer där vegetation försvinner till förmån för byggnader och hårdgjorda ytor. Detta gäller inte minst i Afrika, där urbaniseringen sker i rasande takt, utan att viktig infrastruktur, såsom dagvattenledningar eller parkmiljöer hinner utvecklas i samma takt. Detta ger städer med lägre livskvalitet än vad som skulle kunna vara möjlig. I Etiopien finns idag väldigt små trädpopulationer i städerna, dels eftersom förutsättningarna för att leva och växa är tuffa för träden i dessa miljöer, och dels för att planteringarna idag till stor del består av utländska trädarter som inte är väl anpassade till platsen. En konsekvens av det är att det finns väldigt lite skugga att tillgå i städerna, och under varma dagar blir städernas gator så varma att det är svårt att ta sig fram till fots. Det påverkar mängden motortrafik och drabbar de som inte har möjlighet att ta sig fram med bil eller buss. Att träd får en långsiktig utveckling i städerna är avgörande, eftersom träden levererar mer ekosystemtjänster ju större och äldre de blir.  Det är därför centralt för ett hållbart stadsbyggande med grön infrastruktur, att både känna till vilka ekosystemtjänster som efterfrågas på platsen och vilka arter som kan överleva på platsen och leverera dessa ekosystemtjänster.Syftet med det här projektet är att i ett första steg, genom workshops med kunniga personer inom stadsplanering och skötsel av utemiljöer i Etiopien, ta reda på vilka ekosystemtjänster som städerna har störst behov av. I ett nästa steg kommer vi att utforska vilka inhemska trädarter som skulle kunna klara av att växa i de etiopiska urbana miljöerna. Detta kommer vi att göra genom att dels studera platser i närliggande områden där växtförutsättningarna påminner om stadens, och dels genom att hämta information från exempelvis botaniska trädgårdar och personer som arbetar med träd. Därefter kommer vi att testa hur väl ett antal av de arter som uppfattas som intressanta klarar av torka eftersom torka är en av de största begränsande faktorerna för träd i städer. Vi kommer också att studera vilka de faktiska förutsättningarna är i de största städerna i Etiopien, så att vi tydligt kan koppla olika arters förmåga att hantera torka till hur mycket torka träden verkligen utsätts för. I ett sista steg kommer vi att göra kontrollerade försök där vi testar de substrat som träd planteras i idag i städerna, och jämföra de med substrat där vi försöker förbättra kvaliteten på jorden på ett hållbart sätt.Resultaten som det här projektet kommer att generera, skapar förutsättningar för att bygga mer hållbara städer i Etiopien som bidrar till en ökad livskvalitet för alla stadens invånare.

In India one major opportunity to distribute land to poor people comes from the millions of hectares at present occupied by coal mining and related infrastructure. As coal inevitably starts to retreat new possibilities emerge to restore land for agricultural, forest or fishery livelihoods in support of coalfield communities. Alternative uses of the land are being proposed, however, including keeping the land with industries or turning it into plantations, both resulting in continued privatisation of resources which only benefits a small elite. Drawing on an inter-disciplinary theoretical framework grounded in political ecology we seek to understand the extent of, and contradictory claims over, coalfield lands that are being made at a unique moment in time when coal might finally be about to reduce its hold over both energy systems and indigenous territories. We use GIS, ethnographic fieldwork and public documents across three major Indian coalfields. The results seek to strengthen the possibilities not only to end coal, but to do so with justice for the millions of poor people who rely on the coal economy at present by making use of coal lands as the basis of new hope for sustainable livelihoods. Fördelning av mark till småbrukare för hållbar samhällsutveckling är tillbaka på den internationella agendan efter att många storskaliga projekt i det globala syd misslyckats med att ge fördelar för de fattiga på landsbygden. En möjlighet att fördela mark till fattiga i Indien är från de miljontals hektar som för närvarande ockuperas av kolbrytning och relaterad infrastruktur. När kolets grepp över stora delar av centrala Indien oundvikligen börjar avta uppstår nya möjligheter att ekologiskt återställa miljontals hektar mark för möjlig användning inom jordbruk, skogsbruk eller fiske till stöd för samhällena i de tidigare kolfälten. Alternativa förslag till användning av marken finns dock, inklusive att behålla marken hos industrier eller förvandla den till plantager. Båda dessa storskaliga alternativ innebär dock fortsatt privatisering som bara gynnar ett fåtal. Slutet på kolbrytningen utan en omfördelning av mark riskerar en påtvingad massflytt till redan överfyllda städer runt om i landet.Med utgångspunkt i en tvärvetenskaplig ansats försöker vi förstå omfattningen av, och olika påståenden om, hur kolfältsmarker används vid ett unikt ögonblick då kolet äntligen kan vara på väg att minska sitt grepp över båda energisystem och inhemska territorier i Indien. Vi använder Geografiska Informationssytem för att kartlägga nuvarande markanvändning. Detta kombinerar vi med intervjuer och offentliga dokument i tre fallstudier av indiska kolfält i de tre delstater som producerar mest kol för tillfället. Resultaten syftar till att försöka stärka lokalbefolkningens rättigheter till mark genom att öppna upp för nya möjligheter för befolkningen att försörja sig.

In India one major opportunity to distribute land to poor people comes from the millions of hectares at present occupied by coal mining and related infrastructure. As coal inevitably starts to retreat new possibilities emerge to restore land for agricultural, forest or fishery livelihoods in support of coalfield communities. Alternative uses of the land are being proposed, however, including keeping the land with industries or turning it into plantations, both resulting in continued privatisation of resources which only benefits a small elite. Drawing on an inter-disciplinary theoretical framework grounded in political ecology we seek to understand the extent of, and contradictory claims over, coalfield lands that are being made at a unique moment in time when coal might finally be about to reduce its hold over both energy systems and indigenous territories. We use GIS, ethnographic fieldwork and public documents across three major Indian coalfields. The results seek to strengthen the possibilities not only to end coal, but to do so with justice for the millions of poor people who rely on the coal economy at present by making use of coal lands as the basis of new hope for sustainable livelihoods. Fördelning av mark till småbrukare för hållbar samhällsutveckling är tillbaka på den internationella agendan efter att många storskaliga projekt i det globala syd misslyckats med att ge fördelar för de fattiga på landsbygden. En möjlighet att fördela mark till fattiga i Indien är från de miljontals hektar som för närvarande ockuperas av kolbrytning och relaterad infrastruktur. När kolets grepp över stora delar av centrala Indien oundvikligen börjar avta uppstår nya möjligheter att ekologiskt återställa miljontals hektar mark för möjlig användning inom jordbruk, skogsbruk eller fiske till stöd för samhällena i de tidigare kolfälten. Alternativa förslag till användning av marken finns dock, inklusive att behålla marken hos industrier eller förvandla den till plantager. Båda dessa storskaliga alternativ innebär dock fortsatt privatisering som bara gynnar ett fåtal. Slutet på kolbrytningen utan en omfördelning av mark riskerar en påtvingad massflytt till redan överfyllda städer runt om i landet.Med utgångspunkt i en tvärvetenskaplig ansats försöker vi förstå omfattningen av, och olika påståenden om, hur kolfältsmarker används vid ett unikt ögonblick då kolet äntligen kan vara på väg att minska sitt grepp över båda energisystem och inhemska territorier i Indien. Vi använder Geografiska Informationssytem för att kartlägga nuvarande markanvändning. Detta kombinerar vi med intervjuer och offentliga dokument i tre fallstudier av indiska kolfält i de tre delstater som producerar mest kol för tillfället. Resultaten syftar till att försöka stärka lokalbefolkningens rättigheter till mark genom att öppna upp för nya möjligheter för befolkningen att försörja sig. Slutet på kolbrytningen måste säkerställa rättvisa för de miljontals fattiga som idag lever inom kolekonomin. Genom att försöka återanvända kolfältens mark bygger projektet en grund för nytt hopp om lokala, hållbara försörjningsmöjligheter.

Many of these malnourished children are also born premature and/or with a low birth weight (LBW). To reach the SDGs 2 and 3, that aim to end all forms of malnutrition and stop preventable newborn deaths before 2030, established interventions are not sufficient. Hence, innovative, safe and acceptable evidence-based interventions must be developed. Probiotics are routine practice to prevent mortality in preterm and small for gestational age newborns in high income countries. Evidence shows that the impact could be even larger in LMICs and can simultaneously address both mortality and undernutrition.  Aim: An RCT on a birth cohort generated from an electronic medical birth register in Rwanda, where we will compare risk newborn outcomes in a placebo (standard care) group (n≈700) with an intervention group (n≈700) that will receive daily probiotics during the first two weeks of life.  Methods: After proxy consent, inclusion of risk newborns (defined as LBW, preterm, or having a malnourished mother) will be made at 1-7 days of age before discharge from one of the ten birth health facilities. Follow up visits to register outcome (death/undenutrition) will be performed by a study nurse in the participant homes on 4-6 weeks, 12, and 24 months of age.  Impact: The study could generate evidence for an intervention that is safe, easily administrable and saving lives where the need is highest. Undernäring orsakar indirekt hälften av den globala barnadödligheten.  En stor del av de undernärda barnen föds också med låg födelsevikt.

Därför måste nya, innovativa, säkra och acceptabla interventioner utvecklas.

Studien kommer att inkludera 1400 barn med låg födelsevikt och hälften kommer att få probiotikabehandling och den andra hälften kommer att få placebo, dvs standardbehandling som inte inkluderar probiotika. Vi kommer att undersöka om de barn som fick probiotika utvecklade undernäring i mindre utsträckning eller om dödligheten i den gruppen minskade jämfört med placebogruppen.

The research will contextualize the research findings of a health systems framework into how to integrate and utilize midwives and midwife leaders to their full potential more broadly to the South Asia region.The pathways to impact of this leader-to-leader collaboration will be a joint application for research funds submitted 2024. Suggested activities will provide added value for midwifery leaders/specialists from India and Nepal through dialogues, workshops and conference together with Swedish co-researchers. A steering group of midwifery leaders/specialitsts will be responsible for activities and the development of joint research and ethical applications for next phase. We anticipate midwifery in South Asia can be scaled up with the use of the contextualized guiding framework. Long-term, women and newborns in all South Asian countries could get their birthing experience transformed towards normal physiological birth provided by international standard midwives in an enabling environment. Länderna i Södra Asien har gemensamma möjligheter och utmaningar när professionen barnmorskor introduceras i redan befintliga hälsosystem. Behovet är stort av kostnadseffektiv och säker vård för stora antal gravida, födande och nyfödda. Indien och Nepal är i början av processen med att initiera och integrera barnmorskor i hälsosystemen. Gemensamma erfarenheter och aktiviteter kan ge vägledning för vägen framåt. Erfarenheter och insikter kan kontextualiseras för respektive land med ledning av ett ramverk som fokuserar barnmorskans roll i hälsosystemen. Ett samarbete mellan ledare i Indien och Nepal kommer leda till en gemensam forskningsansökan 2024. Ledarna som är barnmorskespecialister i respektive land träffas under 2023, delar erfarenheter och identiferar vägar framåt virtuellt för att sedan mötas för fortsatt arbete med gemensam forskningsmedelsansökan. Med utgångspunkt i ramverket utvecklas forskningsfrågor, frågeformulär, intervjuguider och etikansökningar. Föreslagna aktiviteter kommer ge mervärde i respektive lands utbildnings/hälsosystem när barnmorskeledare/specialister tillsammans med forskare från Sverige på strukturerade sätt medvetandegörs och kan identifiera rekommendationer baserat på evidens kring hur barnmorskor kan bidra till att optimera upplevelsen av att föda, reducera över- och underanvändning av interventioner och visa på värdet att arbeta i interdisciplinära team. På lång sikt kan den gemensamma intentionen att uppnå SDG målen 2030 genom kostnadseffektiv, optimal förlossnings-och nyföddhetsvård komma många kvinnor och nyfödda i de åtta länderna i Södra Asien till del via normal fysiologisk födsel med adekvat stöd. Det kan uppnås i en miljö där barnmorskor har status, rättigheter och förtroende från befolkning och kollegor, med stöd av ledare på policynivå. Det kontextbaserade ramverket kan ge vägledning för utbyten mellan ledare/specialister beroende på var i processen länderna befinner sig med att införa den "nya" professionen barnmorska.

Structural biology is an essential tool to guide the rational design of drugs. However, due to limited resources and lack of trained persons, most African countries do not conduct structural biology research. We will help bridge this technology gap. The network consists of the Swedish applicant, the international project leader based in Nairobi, Kenya, and a collaborator in the USA. We plan to include further Africa-based scientists in the future. To achieve goal 1, we will provide research training and access to infrastructure to Africa-based students and junior researchers through annual workshops held in Kenya, as well as several research and teaching visits of 1-6 months duration to each other’s laboratories in Kenya and Sweden, including infrastructure visits. Together, we will achieve goal 2 by identifying novel inhibitors for an essential malaria parasite enzyme that can be developed further into transmission-blocking drugs using structure-based drug design. Overall, this project will put the fight against neglected tropical diseases such as malaria in the hands of committed, talented structural biologists working in Africa, thereby promoting education, good health and wellbeing both directly by the training provided and by reducing the burden caused by malaria to Africa. Detta nätverk har två huvudmål: (1) att bygga kapacitet inom strukturbiologi i Afrika, och (2) att använda strukturbiologi för att utveckla nya malariabehandlingar.Strukturbiologi är ett viktigt verktyg för att förstå den molekylära grunden för sjukdomar och för att vägleda den rationella utformningen av läkemedel. På grund av begränsade resurser och brist på utbildade personer bedriver de flesta afrikanska länder dock ingen forskning inom området. Vi kommer att hjälpa till att överbrygga denna tekniska klyfta. För att uppnå mål 1 kommer medlemmarna i detta nätverk, som är baserade i Sverige, Kenya och USA, att tillhandahålla forskarutbildning och tillgång till infrastruktur till studenter och juniora forskare i Afrika genom workshops, samt forsknings- och undervisningsbesök till varandras laboratorier.Tillsammans kommer vi att uppnå mål 2 genom att identifiera nya inhibitorer för ett essentiellt malariaparasitenzym med hjälp av strukturbiologi. Malaria är en livshotande sjukdom som dödar över 400,000 människor varje år och drabbar uppskattningsvis 229 miljoner människor världen över, främst i Afrika söder om Sahara. Sjukdomen orsakas av parasiter som överförs till människor från bett av en infekterad Anopheles-mygga. Resistens mot nuvarande behandlingsalternativ ökar och det finns därför ett akut behov av att identifiera nya behandlingar. Vi kommer att rikta in oss på en metabol väg som är väsentlig för parasitens utveckling i myggan, vilket ger en möjlighet att identifiera inhibitorer som kan utvecklas vidare för att blockera överföring av parasiten från myggor till människor.Sammantaget kommer detta projekt att lägga kampen mot försummade tropiska sjukdomar som malaria i händerna på engagerade, begåvade strukturbiologer som arbetar i Afrika. Därigenom främjas utbildning, god hälsa och välbefinnande både direkt genom den utbildning som tillhandahålls och genom att minska bördan som orsakas av malaria till Afrika.

Bangladesh, Somaliland, Puntland, and Sweden show differences and similarities in providing midwifery education. Here we focus clinical midwifery education because all countries are facing challenges in providing high quality clinical midwifery education. The purpose is to provide a scientific foundation on the benefits with midwife-led care at selected clinical midwife students’ placement sites in Bangladesh, Somaliland, Puntland, and Sweden as a mean to improve the quality in clinical education. The action points in the WHO framework for establishing quality midwifery education with scientific quality care outcomes of midwife-led care, will guide the development of research questions for a research application in 2025. Through triangulation 234 master’s alumni from Dalarna University in an alumni network, meeting on-line and in field studies at midwife students’ clinical placement sites, will investigate where, at what facilites, midwife-led care can be a showcased, or prototyped in Bangladesh, Somaliland and Puntland. A working committee will meet on-line and at Dalarna University, establishing a relevant research agenda for long term collaboration and a research application to be submitted in 2025. Leadership and research workshops will be provided and reciprocal learning will improve the quality in clinical midwifery education, also in Sweden. Välutbildade barnmorskor är centrala för kvinnors hälsa globalt. Forskning visar att upp till 80 procent av dödsfall i samband med graviditet och förlossning skulle kunna undvikas om kvinnor haft tillgång till en välutbildad barnmorska. I den kliniska utbildningen till barnmorska finns utmaningar med kunskap och färdigheter i utbildningsplaner och kursplaner som inte implementeras i klinisk utbildning. Upp till 60 procent av barnmorskeutbildningen utgörs idag av klinisk utbildning. Den svenska barnmorskeutbildningen ses som ett gott exempel i världen och den kliniska utbildningen i synnerhet. Den ger insyn i en barnmorskeledd vårdmodell som Sverige utvecklat sedan 1930-talet.

More recently, Zambia has committed to achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC) by 2030. However, despite thee steps taken to achieve UHC, many challenges remain to sustainably build and finance health services for all. Over half of the population in Zambia fall below the poverty line. The large number of people living in poverty means that finding mechanisms for ensuring UHC, is essential to protect vulnerable groups from financial hardships due to ill health and using health services. Building resilience is also crucial to ensuring population and service coverage during challenging times but will require government and donors to invest in long-term capacity building and health systems strengthening support that addresses the complex, root causes of weak health systems.Zambia is in a sense at a crossroad. With continued economic growth the country will become a lower middle-income country and to an increasing extent must finance its health system using domestic resources. To effectively tackle these transitions, evidence on effective health financing mechanisms as well as improved health system resilience are critical. Zambia är ett lägre medelinkomstland i södra Afrika. Som många länder i regionen så brottas de med fattigdom och befolkningen har begränsad tillgång till grundläggande hälso- och sjukvård av god kvalitet. Det här projektet syftar till att identifiera centrala frågeställningar för hälsosystemsforskning i Zambia de kommande 5-8 åren. Genom ett samarbete mellan Lunds Universitet, University of Zambia och University of KwaZulu-Natal ska vi identifera centrala forskningsfrågor kopplade till hur hälso- och sjukvård ska finansieras och hur det Zambiska hälsosystemet kan bli mer motståndskraftigt i händelser av exempelvis en större kris. Projektet syftar till att etablera ett nätverk mellan medverkande universitet och intressenter i Zambia för att tillsammans identifiera vilka kunskapsgap som behöver fyllas inom områdena hälsofinansiering och hälsosystemsforskning. Dessa frågor kommer att tas fram genom att etablera en rådgivande grupp av experter inom hälsosektorn, workshops och utbyte mellan forskare samt konsultationer med intressenter i Zambia. Sammantaget förväntas dessa aktiviteter leda till att vi kan identifiera de frågor inom området som är av högst relevans för ett effektiv beslutsfattande med målet att uppnå en förbättrad och mer tillgänlig hälso- och sjukvård för fattiga människor och ett hälsosystem som bättre kan hantera plötsliga kriser, som till exempel covid-19 pandemin. Projektet kommer att pågå i två år och ska utmynna i två internationellt konkurrenskraftiga forskningsansökningar.

This 4-year project aims to explore how immune checkpoint molecules are modulated in MDR-TB patients depending on clinical disease severity and bacterial strain virulence. Our original findings from TB patients show that antimicrobial macrophage and T cell responses are severely impaired, while myeloid-derived suppressor cells and regulatory T cells expand in the TB lesions. To advance our understanding of immunoregulation in MDR-TB compared to drug-susceptible TB, we will examine stimulatory and inhibitory checkpoint molecules in a well-defined patient cohort in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. We will model disease progression and quantify disease severity at enrolment and after chemotherapy using a composite clinical TB score and chest X-ray grading. Drug susceptibility testing will determine the level of resistance and genotyping of patient´s strains will signify bacterial virulence. Longitudinal assessment of checkpoint molecules in peripheral blood and induced sputum samples involves deep profiling with RNA-sequencing, multicolor flow cytometry and in vitro suppression assays. We will also exploit in situ imaging of resected lung tissue from MDR-TB patients. This collaborative project offers untapped opportunities for translating new advances on checkpoint molecules in chronic infections into clinical applications for MDR-TB. Tuberkulos (TB) är en bakteriell lungsjukdom och en av världens största infektionssjukdomar med ett starkt fäste i utvecklingsländer i Afrika och Asien. Ett allvarligt hot mot den globala kontrollen av TB är utvecklingen av antibiotikaresistens och framför allt multidrogresistent TB sk. MDR-TB. Få studier görs för att bringa klarhet i de patogena mekanismerna som förknippas med MDR-TB och hur dessa skiljer sig från antibiotika-känsliga stammar. Vi vet också förhållandevis lite om hur hypervirulenta MDR-TB stammar modulerar skyddande immunitet och vilken effekt det kan ha på sjukdomsutveckling. Det här projektet syftar till att utforska sjukdomsmekanismer vid MDR-TB med fokus på regulatoriska immunceller och uttryck av immunmodulerande receptorer sk. checkpoint molekyler eller kontrollpunktsmolekyler. Vi har tidigare upptäckt att antimikrobiell immunitet är nedreglerad vid aktiv sjukdom, medan immunsuppressiva celltyper anrikas vid infektionsstället. I forskningssamarbete med Etiopien, kommer vi att rekrytera en patientkohort för att studera immunsvar och uttrycket av en rad olika checkpoint molekyler i blod- och hostprover som tas från patienterna vid tiden för diagnos samt vid olika tidpunkter efter start av antibiotikabehandling. Dessa immunsvar kommer även att studeras i lungvävnad som erhålls från MDR-TB patienter som genomgår kirurgi för att begränsa sjukdomen. Proverna analyseras med avancerade metoder såsom RNA-sekvensering, flödescytometri och bildanalys, som har potentialen att producera resultat med mycket hög upplösning utifrån väldigt små provmängder. Perifera immunsvar i blodet kommer att jämföras med immunsvar lokalt i lungan och relateras till svårighetsgraden av sjukdom som bedöms och mäts utifrån kliniska symptom samt lungröntgenfynd. Vår förhoppning är att projektet ska bidra med unik kunskap kring hur uttrycket av checkpoint molekyler styrs vid kronisk TB infektion vilket öppnar upp möjligheter för utveckling av nya behandlingsformer för MDR-TB.

Rodents can carry zoonotic pathogens, including orthohantaviruses, and Leptospira spp, but also many unknown pathogens. In this project we will understand transmission ecology of rodent-borne diseases in urban and peri-urban low-income settings in two Kenyan towns. We will trap rodents along the urban food production supply, including livestock farms, slaughterhouses, food markets, as well as clinics as an environment that should not be contaminated with zoonotic diseases. The rodents will be euthanized, sampled, and samples will be analyzed for hantaviruses and Leptospira, as well as analyzed with an omics approach, to identify unknown viruses, and the entire rodent virome will be analyzed and compared to sequences from other parts of the world. We will interview households about their knowledge and perceptions about rodents and diseases, as well as map the urban pest control programs in East Africa. This project will lead to increased knowledge about rodent-borne diseases in East Africa, and how this may influence food security, poverty as well as human health. In addition, the project will investigate improved mitigation methods for sustainable positive impact on human health and livelihoods. I de snabbt växande städerna i östra Afrika finns inte bara många människor, men också den boskap som behövs för att tillgodose städernas befolkning med mat. Runt om människor och tamdjur finns det även minst lika många oönskade djur, framförallt råttor och andra gnagare, som lever på sopor och annat avskräde. Gnagare är välkända för att kunna bära på smittor, och några av de allvarliga infektioner de kan bära på är bakterier (som orsakar till exempel leptospiros och pest), hantavirus, coronavirus och även många hittills okända virus. I låginkomstområden med bristande sanitet bidrar gnagare såsom råttor inte bara till sjukdomsspridning, men de äter även av mat och foder, och påverkar därmed livsmedelstillgång och ekonomi.  Vi saknar mycket information om hur mycket gnagare påverkar människors hälsa och försörjning, liksom vilka sjukdomar de kan sprida till människor. I det här projektet kommer vi att fånga råttor i och omkring 2 städer i Kenya. Råttorna avlivas sedan med en överdos av sömnmedel, och obduceras för att leta efter både kända och okända smittor. Vi kommer att fånga gnagare längs hela den urbana matproduktionskedjan; på gårdar, på slakterier och även bland hushåll.

I låginkomstområden med bristande sanitet bidrar gnagare såsom råttor inte bara till sjukdomsspridning, men de äter även av mat och foder, och påverkar därmed livsmedelstillgång och ekonomi.  Vi saknar mycket information om hur mycket gnagare påverkar människors hälsa och försörjning, liksom vilka sjukdomar de kan sprida till människor. I det här projektet kommer vi att fånga råttor i och omkring 2 städer i Kenya. Råttorna avlivas sedan med en överdos av sömnmedel, och obduceras för att leta efter både kända och okända smittor. Vi kommer att fånga gnagare längs hela den urbana matproduktionskedjan; på gårdar, på slakterier och även bland hushåll. Som en kontroll på en miljö där gnagare inte borde ha utsatts för sjukdomar från  djur och djurprodukter, inkluderar vi även kliniker. Mycket är också okänt om hur den fattiga befolkningen ser på gnagare, och om de är medvetna om riskerna, och drför kommer detta undersökas med intervjuer.Utöver detta så har vi diskussion med myndigheter om hur råttbekämpning fungerar i städer i östra Afrika, och om det finns program för detta.

Rodents can carry zoonotic pathogens, including orthohantaviruses, and Leptospira spp, but also many unknown pathogens. In this project we will understand transmission ecology of rodent-borne diseases in urban and peri-urban low-income settings in two Kenyan towns. We will trap rodents along the urban food production supply, including livestock farms, slaughterhouses, food markets, as well as clinics as an environment that should not be contaminated with zoonotic diseases. The rodents will be euthanized, sampled, and samples will be analyzed for hantaviruses and Leptospira, as well as analyzed with an omics approach, to identify unknown viruses, and the entire rodent virome will be analyzed and compared to sequences from other parts of the world. We will interview households about their knowledge and perceptions about rodents and diseases, as well as map the urban pest control programs in East Africa. This project will lead to increased knowledge about rodent-borne diseases in East Africa, and how this may influence food security, poverty as well as human health. In addition, the project will investigate improved mitigation methods for sustainable positive impact on human health and livelihoods. I de snabbt växande städerna i östra Afrika finns inte bara många människor, men också den boskap som behövs för att tillgodose städernas befolkning med mat.

The zoonotic infections of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) from pigs and via mosquitoes to humans, causes most serious human acute viral meningitis in Asia. The recent replacement of JEV genotype III with genotype I highlights the alteration of JE epidemiology with ill-understood questions. How JEV evolves along the host axis and especially how these changes are linked to the virulence evolution, are the key scientific questions for understanding the epidemiology of JE, which will provide valuable knowledge for updating the JE vaccine program for animals and humans. To this end, the proposal aims to decipher JEV virulence evolution features by epidemiological and phylogenomic studies of JEV along its transmission chains between pigs, mosquitoes, and humans in Vietnam and Cambodia. Furthermore, we will employ omics approaches and application of susceptible cell, mosquito, and mouse models to evaluate the mutations of interest and their association with viral virulence. Additionally, based on the theory of convergent evolution in RNA viruses, we will establish laboratory infection cycles of JEV to identify the key mutations that might emerge in future outbreaks. Altogether, this project will yield comprehensive knowledge on virulence evolution of JEV, which will help reducing JE disease burden in the southeast Asia. Virulens används vanligtvis för att definiera hur farliga patogenerna är för värdarna. Detta projekt kommer att undersöka om de nya JEV-varianterna från grisar och vissa myggarter kan bli farligare för människor och till och med kunna orsaka större utbrott i Vietnam och Kambodja, där JE är en konstant sjukdomsbörda. Genom att studera virusets genetiska skillnader från JE patienter med olika klinisk svårighetsgrad kommer vi att förstå hur sjukdomsbild är relaterad till de genetiska förändringarna. Vi kommer också att utvärdera viruset genom att använda cell-, mygg- och mus-modeller. I dessa modeller kommer vi att se hur dessa olika JEV-varianter beter sig och om några infektionsmönster kan kopplas till specifik JEV-typ.Denna studie kommer också att använda flera ”omics-metoder”, som syftar till kollektiv karaktärisering och kvantifiering av pooler av biologiska molekyler.

It focuses on head-quarter levels of organizations in Sweden and the UK and includes an analysis of the two state donors and the 10 biggest NGOs in each country. The research project addresses the following questions: 1) How well are people of color represented at various levels of the organizations, and can we discern a difference since 2020?; 2) What (if any) particular challenges attached to diversity and discrimination appear to be at play in the humanitarian and development aid sector? 3) What (if any) changes do people of color themselves experience after the intensified debate in 2020? The study draws on development research, with a particular focus on postcolonial perspectives and NGO, as well as the more general research on diversity and discrimination at workplaces, including critical race and racism studies.

Projektet kommer inkludera de statliga givarna Sida och DFID och de tio största biståndsorganisationerna i varje land. Följande forskningsfrågor står i centrum: 1) Hur väl representerade är personer som är födda eller har föräldrar födda i Asien, Afrika och Latinamerika på olika nivåer i organisationerna, och kan en skillnad kan skönjas över tid (efter att debatten intensifierades 2020)?; 2) Vilka (om några) särskilda utmaningar kopplade till mångfald och diskriminering tycks finnas inom just biståndssektorn?; 3) Vilka (om några) förändringar upplever personer som är födda eller har föräldrar födda i Asien, Afrika och Latinamerika själva efter 2020?Projektet kommer genomföras genom: 1) en kartläggning av mångfald; 2) intervjuer med HR-personal och en analys av policydokument; 3) Intervjuer med personer som är födda eller har föräldrar födda i Asien, Afrika och Latinamerika; 4) en jämförande studie mellan organisationer med varierande nivåer av mångfald för att identifiera möjliga orsaker; 5) En enkät med potentiella kandidater för internationellt biståndsarbete.

It focuses on head-quarter levels of organizations in Sweden and the UK and includes an analysis of the two state donors and the 10 biggest NGOs in each country. The research project addresses the following questions: 1) How well are people of color represented at various levels of the organizations, and can we discern a difference since 2020?; 2) What (if any) particular challenges attached to diversity and discrimination appear to be at play in the humanitarian and development aid sector? 3) What (if any) changes do people of color themselves experience after the intensified debate in 2020? The study draws on development research, with a particular focus on postcolonial perspectives and NGO, as well as the more general research on diversity and discrimination at workplaces, including critical race and racism studies.

However, anthropogenic activities like overfishing are threatening coral reef ecosystems. In the last decades, tourism has evolved into a global phenomenon, with significant impacts on social and ecological systems. To what extent tourism impacts coral reef fish communities is, however, unclear. The aim of this project is to increase our knowledge on if, how, and why tourism-led fish consumption may be affecting coral reef fish communities on nearshore reefs. This study will be carried out along the Tanzanian coastline and is a collaboration between the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Södertörn University, Tanzania Fisheries Research Institute and State University of Zanzibar. We will use an interdisciplinary comparative approach to probe the possible impact of fish consumption by tourists on reef fish species by co-examining fish consumption patterns and the ecological status of consumed fish species in different sites. Our results will increase our knowledge on the intersection between tourism and ecological systems. More pragmatically, we expect our findings to orient sustainable tourism practices and effective institutional arrangements in relation to tourism-related challenges. Småskaligt fiske på korallrev försörjer miljontals människor världen över men hotas av överfiske och klimatförändringar. Turism har ökat avsevärt under de senaste decennierna och studier visar att turisternas efterfrågan på fisk- och skaldjur kan ha negativa effekter på populationer. Få studier har kombinerat olika vetenskapliga metoder för att utreda turismens roll i fiskefrågan. Tidigare studier har främst inventerat fiskmarknader och intervjuat fiskare, men kopplingen till ekologisk status genom inventeringar av korallrevsfisk under ytan saknas. De flesta studier är enskilda fallstudier, där skillnader mellan olika områden, tex olika grad av turistexploatering eller olika institutionella ramverk, inte kan genomföras. Sammantaget är vår kunskap om hur turism påverkar marina populationer och huruvida det kan resultera i ett överutnyttjande av vissa arter/populationer begränsad.

Gold mining in Ghana consists of both large-scale and small-scale mining, the latter being largely unregulated with very limited technical knowledge, where mercury is still the main reagent for extracting gold. Gold mining takes place in the poorest and most supportive communities in Ghana. Results of studies of water and soil quality show serious contamination of arsenic, mercury, cadmium, lead and cyanide. The larger rivers that receive water from areas with small-scale mining have deteriorated water quality. This project aims to deepen cooperation in research and education and create joint research application to improve the health and environmental situation in areas with small-scale mines in Ghana. Partner from Sweden is Luleå University of Technology, which has extensive experience of environmental studies related to mining, in collaboration with the Swedish mining industry.

Yet, the current Colombian peace process is only the most recent example of how peacebuilding projects—even context-sensitive, inclusive, and homegrown ones—occur not only amidst violence, but are also deeply entangled in, or productive of, continuing violence. We draw on the Colombian case to better understand this fundamental aspect of the lingering crisis of peacebuilding as it plays out on the ground in the institutionalized and granular practice of building peace. Our project aims to analyse how and why peacebuilding has itself become a conflict dynamic through exploring the question: how and why have Colombian peacebuilding interventions aggravated societal conflicts and spurred political violence? We adopt an ‘inside-out’ perspective, tapping the experiences of peacebuilders who have worked in, or in close cooperation with the institutional infrastructure designed by the 2016 peace agreement. Taking the wealth of knowledge, experience, and insight of Colombian peace professionals as its central vantage point, this project produces backstage insights into how a peace drawn on paper is practiced, and how these practices may produce unintended, conflict-aggravating effects. The insights of our research collaborators, largely absent from the reports of monitoring research institutions, also build the foundation of a wider dialogue that we facilitate among peacebuilding experts in the Global South. Fredsbyggande syftar till att få slut på våld och väpnad konflikt. Men, globalt har det visats att fredsbyggande är djupt intrasslat i, eller till och med skapar fortsatt våld.

The recent outbreak of maize ER in Rwanda made it critical to formulate a strategy for sustainable ER control in Rwanda. The current project aims to generate the crucial scientific knowledge to formulate strategies for improving maize productivity and quality through ensuring ER disease control. We will use a comprehensive approach combining farmers training and awareness with field survey on ER occurrence, distribution and risk factors conducive for disease development (year 1 and 2). We will identify genetic factors associated with the virulence determinants in ER pathogens, and ER resistance in maize through population genomics and transcriptomics (year 3 and 4). Since ER pathogens can co-occur, we will investigate whether pathogen co-infection have synergistic or antagonistic effects on ER development, mycotoxin production and plant disease resistance under normal and abiotic stress conditions. This project will provide scientific knowledge vital for improving maize productivity and quality through ensuring ER disease control and extension support services to farmers. The project will be executed through the collaborative efforts of a multi-disciplinary team from Rwanda and Sweden covering all aspects for a successful implementation of the project. Majs är en viktig basföda för människor i Afrika söder om Sahara, och har därför en stor betydelse för livsmedelsförsörjning, livsmedelssäkerhet och inkomster för småskaliga jordbrukare. Majs är därför en prioriterad gröda i det nationella programmet för intensifierad jordbruksproduktion (NCIP) i Rwanda. Trots detta är produktionsnivån av majs i Rwanda fortfarande ytterst låg (1,5 ton/ha) jämfört med en potentiell produktion om 5 ton/ha. Kolv- och kärnröta hos majs är en allvarlig sjukdom som orsakas av flera olika svampar främst från släktena Fusarium, Aspergillus, Penicillium, Cladosporium och Trichothecium. Sjukdomen resulterar i stora skördeförluster, men även kontaminering av giftiga mykotoxiner i majskärnorna både på åkern och under lagring. Dessa mykotoxiner är ytterst giftiga för människor och djur som konsumerar majsen, vilket är ett hot mot både livsmedelsförsörjning och livsmedelssäkerhet. Därför är det av yttersta vikt att förhindra den initiala sjukdomsinfektionen av majsen för att minimera skördeförluster och hälsorisker.I projektet arbetar vi med att öka kunskaperna om sjukdomens utbredning i Rwanda och dess riskfaktorer, patogenernas virulens och deras samverkan, samt med sjukdomsresistens hos befintliga majssorter. Målet är att utveckla strategier för ett effektivt och långsiktigt hållbart växtskydd för majs i Rwanda. Vi arbetar också med utbildningsprogram för lantbrukare för att öka kunskaperna och medvetenheten om mykotoxiner och deras negativa hälsoeffekter, samt om åtgärder för växtskydd och lagring som kan maximera skördar men minimera hälsorisker. Sammanfattningsvis så bidrar projektet med att generera och sprida vetenskaplig kunskap som är nödvändig för att öka produktion av majs av hög kvalité i Rwanda, för att på så sätt säkerställa en god livsmedelsförsörjning och hög livsmedelssäkerhet.

The recent outbreak of maize ER in Rwanda made it critical to formulate a strategy for sustainable ER control in Rwanda. The current project aims to generate the crucial scientific knowledge to formulate strategies for improving maize productivity and quality through ensuring ER disease control. We will use a comprehensive approach combining farmers training and awareness with field survey on ER occurrence, distribution and risk factors conducive for disease development (year 1 and 2). We will identify genetic factors associated with the virulence determinants in ER pathogens, and ER resistance in maize through population genomics and transcriptomics (year 3 and 4). Since ER pathogens can co-occur, we will investigate whether pathogen co-infection have synergistic or antagonistic effects on ER development, mycotoxin production and plant disease resistance under normal and abiotic stress conditions. This project will provide scientific knowledge vital for improving maize productivity and quality through ensuring ER disease control and extension support services to farmers.

In endemic areas many infected individuals are asymptomatic and submicroscopic that go undiagnosed and untreated but still sustain transmission. Interactions among parasites, mosquitos, and humans are key for the control and maintenance of these low-density infection, however yet to understand the mechanisms behind. Naturally acquired immunity through repeated exposure to parasites can suppress parasite density and protect individuals from severe disease, but the mechanism of immunity acquisition in relation to T cell subsets remains unexplored. Parasites indirectly change the blood seeking behavior of mosquitos by inducing volatile compounds from infected humans, but the link with the parasite density is missing. Using a longitudinal cohort in Lake Victoria, Kenya, we aim to (1) characterize asymptomatic and submicroscopic infection together with the risk factors in eco-epidemiological context, (2) compare the transcriptomes of CD8+ T cells at the single cell level to identify factors that mediate disease severity, and (3) identify behavioral modifiers which explain the increased attractiveness of people carrying various density of parasite. With a focus on asymptomatic and submicroscopic infections, this study seeks to understand how residual transmission persists, with potential implications for development of novel tools and strategies for malaria elimination in tropical Africa. Pregnant women are one of the most vulnerable groups to malaria infection. Malaria parasites sequester and replicate in the placenta. Since their capillaries are finely and widely distributed, parasites cause embolus in the placenta, resulting in miscarriage, premature delivery, low birth weight, congenital infection, and/or perinatal death. Thus malaria infection during pregnancy is associated with not only perinatal morbidity/mortality but also maternal morbidity/mortality. Pregnant women are at a much greater risk of severe malaria than adult men in most endemic areas. Furthermore pregnant women lack proven effective and safe treatment regimen mostly because of the insufficient data. Since immunity plays a critical role in the etiology of pregnancy malaria, the immunological findings from our proposed research has potential to lead to new hypothesis on subsequent studies focusing on malari in pregnancy. In the study a balance in gender will be ensured when recruiting subjects for the longitudinal cohort. However, pregnant and lactating mothers will be excluded since they are at higher risk of malaria than age-matched healthy counterparts and require different drug treatment regimens according to WHO and Kenya national guidelines. Recruitment of equal number of males and females within the community will promote further cooperation between the genders and indirectly reinforce the idea that everyone is needed in the efforts towards malaria elimination and knowledge and that no specific gender is responsible. Infektion med malariaparasiter kan leda till allvarlig sjukdom, men många människor som lever i malariaendemiska områden har en asymtomatisk infektion. Asymtomatiska infektioner kan ibland diagnostiseras med mikroskop, medan i andra fall är infektionen submikroskopisk och kräver känsligare diagnostikmetoder. Asymptomatiska/submikroskopiska infektioner finns ofta kvar i en population efter att effektiva kontrollprogram, för att minska malariaspridning, har satts in. Dessa, odiagnostiserade och obehandlade, individer är en källa till parasiter och fortsatt smittspridning. Vidare visar studier att myggor attraheras mer av malaria infekterade individer än de som är oinfekterade, speciellt attraktiva är de som bär på det sexuella stadiet av parasiterna (gametocyter). Vår hypotes är att gametocyter driver frisättning av kemiska ämnen som attraherar och leder myggorna till att bita där parasiterna finns ansamlade.I endemiska områden minskar parasitmängd med ålder och fler blir submikroskopiska bärare. Immunförsvaret roll i kontroll av parasiter är fortfarande inte helt känd och vilken betydelse olika T-celler spelar återstår att undersökas. Vi vet att den förvärvade immuniteten minskar när parasiter minskar i efter effektiva kontrollprogram. Trots detta kvarstår en hög nivå av submikroskopiska infektioner, vilket indikerar att även andra faktorer har betydelse i reglering av parasiterna.Vi undrar, hur upprätthålls malariatransmission under effektiva kontrollprogram? I longitudinella kohortstudier som görs vid Victoriasjön i Kenya kommer detta att undersökas. Specifika delfrågor som vi ämnar besvara är:Hur karakteriseras infektion och sjukdom i ett bredare miljö- och samhällsperspektiv?Hur påverkar T-celler infektionsförloppet och skydd mot sjukdomHur kan densiteten av parasiter/gametocyter påverka myggors beteende?Resultaten av studien är viktiga för att stoppa spridning av malaria och förstå hur kvarvarande malariaparasiter ska hanteras för att eliminera malaria. Gravida kvinnor är en av de mest sårbara grupperna för malariainfektion. Malariaparasiter binder sig och replikerar i moderkakan. Eftersom deras kapillärer är fint och brett fördelade, orsakar parasiter embolus i moderkakan, vilket resulterar i missfall, för tidig förlossning, låg födelsevikt, medfödd infektion och/eller perinatal död. Således är malariainfektion under graviditeten associerad med inte bara perinatal morbiditet/mortalitet utan även mödrasjuklighet/mortalitet. Gravida kvinnor löper en mycket större risk för svår malaria än vuxna män i de flesta endemiska områden. Dessutom saknar gravida kvinnor bevisat effektiv och säker behandlingsregim, främst på grund av otillräckliga data. Eftersom immunitet spelar en avgörande roll i etiologin av graviditetsmalaria, har de immunologiska fynden från vår föreslagna forskning potential att leda till nya hypoteser om efterföljande studier med fokus på malari under graviditet. I studien kommer en jämvikt i kön att säkerställas vid rekrytering av försökspersoner till den longitudinella kohorten. Emellertid kommer gravida och ammande mödrar att uteslutas eftersom de löper högre risk för malaria än åldersmatchade friska motsvarigheter och kräver olika läkemedelsbehandlingsregimer enligt WHO:s och Kenyas nationella riktlinjer. Rekrytering av lika många män och kvinnor inom samhället kommer att främja ytterligare samarbete mellan könen och indirekt förstärka tanken att alla behövs i arbetet mot malariaeliminering och kunskap och att inget specifikt kön är ansvarigt.

This may seem self-evident, but fact remains that a majority of learners in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are taught in a European second language (L2) that they are unfamiliar with. Frequently, the role of the home languages in supporting learning the classrooms has been totally removed - so called subtractive transitions - resulting in failures and early drop-outs. According to the World Bank, inadequate language of instruction policies is a major factor contributing to learning poverty in SSA. The project addresses this problem by furthering knowledge of additive multilingual education (MLE), i.e. models where use of the L1 is maintained to support learning after the L2 is introduced as the language of learning and teaching. More specifically, the project seeks to gain a better and systematic understanding of the guiding principles behind language-in-education policies, and how steering documents and curricula in various L2 MoI transition systems in SSA acknowledge (or not) the realities and challenges involved in learning and teaching through a second language. Through interviews and observations, the project also explores of how language-in-education policy directives and recommendations translate into practice in the field. Four transition systems are explored under the project: immersion, early transition, mid-transition and late transition. Inverkan av språkval så som undervisningsspråk på undervisningsmiljön och utbildningsresultat är avgörande i flerspråkiga sammanhang över hela världen, och särskilt i Afrika söder om Sahara (SSA). I ingen annan region i världen är lokala språk så systematiskt uteslutna från utbildning som i SSA. Många kontexter i SSA applicerar såkallade subtraktiva övergångsmodeller. I dessa system uteluts modersmålet nästan helt från utbildningssammanhanget efter övergången till undervisning på ett andra språk- L2 (engelska t ex). Mycket forskning tyder på att dessa system har mycket negativa effekter för elevernas långsiktiga akademiska prestationer; eleverna ställs inför stora utmaningar: de måste inte bara förstå vilka former av kunskap som premieras av skolan och lära sig att bemästra klassrummets akademiska genrer, de måste dessutom lära sig göra allt detta på ett språk som de inte nödvändigtvis behärskar.Med ambitionen att motverka de negativa effekterna av sådan politik så att alla barn kan få tillgång till och utvecklas inom utbildning genom ett språkbruk de förstår, bygger det aktuella projektet ny kunskap kring flerspråkig undervisning (MLE) i SSA, och hur första språket kan användas för att stödja lärande i klassrummet genom s.k. additiv MLE, det vill säga modeller där användningen av första språket bibehålls för att stödja lärande även efter att L2 introducerats som språk för lärande och undervisning. Mer specifikt syftar projektet till att få en bättre och systematisk förståelse för de vägledande principerna bakom språk-i-utbildningspolicyer, och hur styrdokument och läroplaner i olika L2-övergångssystem i SSA erkänner (eller inte) de verkligheter och utmaningar som är involverade i lärande och undervisning genom ett andraspråk. Genom intervjuer och observationer undersöker projektet också hur språkpolitiska direktiv och rekommendationer omsätts i praktiken. Fyra övergångssystem utforskas under projektet: immersion, tidig övergång, mid-transition och sen övergång.

This follows wide and in-depth studies on women’s representation in political institutions. By investigating violence in electoral cycles, studies on its gendered aspect have shed light on the limits of formal agenda setting, especially in contexts where informal normative environments influence attitudes and behaviour in formal institutional set-ups, as is the case across many Sub-Saharan African contexts. This study therefore investigates this reality by focusing on gendered violence and electoral temporalities in Ghana, Kenya, and Zimbabwe. By adopting a participatory and qualitative approach in engaging key stakeholders in sub-national politics, the study explores forms of gendered electoral violence that women in politics are exposed to, and investigates how intersectional categories such as age, class, ethnicity, and party affiliation shape women’s exposure to gendered electoral violence. Further, the research aims to highlight coping strategies that women in politics use to prevent cases of violence, and the networks and institutions in place to help prevent and deal with instances of gendered electoral violence. Quantitative methods will also be adopted in analysing results and augmenting perspectives, informing the study’s goal of contributing to a deeper theorization of gendered electoral violence across Africa, and influencing empowerment policy actions Våld mot politiskt aktiva kvinnor begränsar representationen — både vad gäller kvinnors antal och inflytande. Genom att utforska könsbundet våld i valprocesser kan vi bättre förstå kvinnors utmaningar i olika sociokulturella och politiska miljöer. I Afrika söder om Sahara har forskning om politiskt våld mot kvinnor främst varit anekdotisk och aktivistisk, och är därför underforskad.

Dessa länder är olika när det kommer till; graden av representation av kvinnor i politiken, antagande av kvoter, politiskt deltagande, samt hur könsbaserat valvåld sker.

WB was first discovered in Brazil in 1985 and then gradually spread to the neighbouring countries, causing yield losses in a range of 10 to 100%. Recently, the disease was observed in the continent of Africa, Zambia, for the first time on wheat grown in experimental plots and farmers´ fields. WB transboundary jump to South Asia and then Sub-Saharan Africa originated from South America threatens food security and farmers’ income. Zambia, located at the crossroads of Central, Southern and East Africa, is particularly a unique country in terms of importing and exporting (to neighbouring countries) wheat within a year that increases the possibility of wheat blast spread. . The project targets awareness creation, early WB warning system, pathogen biology, integrated WB management, and human resources and capacity development. Additionally, the project is linked to the Australian Center for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR) funded project on host resistance against WB. This project would enormously help researchers to identify solutions for sustainable wheat production in the region regardless of incursion of this highly damaging WB disease and will be a critical step forward to avoid a potential disaster of loss of wheat production in the region. Sjukdom på vete (“wheat blast”) orsakad av svampen Magnaporthe oryzae pathotype Triticum (MoT) har blivit ett allvarligt hinder för veteproduktionen i de varmare delarna av Sydamerika och i Sydasien. Sjukdomen har förekommit på upp till 3 miljoner hektar och kan orsaka 10-100% skördeförlust i Sydamerika. Under 2016 skedde ett utbrott av MoT i Bangladesh vilket var det första utbrottet utanför Sydamerika. Utbrottet skedde snabbt och fick en stor omfattning. 15 000 hektar drabbades mellan februari och mars 2016, och utbrottet beräknas ha påverkat åtminstone 45 000 bönder, varav de flesta är resurssvaga småbrukare. Under 2019 observerades även MoT i Zambia. Även om omfattningen där inte var så stor så finns det en betydande risk för kraftig spridning i hela landet och till resten av Afrika. Situationen är allvarlig och passivitet i hanteringen av MoT riskerar utebliven livsmedelsförsörjning och inkomst för över en miljard människor. Det är därför angeläget att snabbt karakterisera isolat (individer) av MoT med avseende på deras morfologi, virulens, resistens mot bekämpningsmedel och eventuella genetiska skillnader mellan isolat från olika platser.Detta arbete som omfattar markörutveckling, screening av motståndskraft i vetesorter och odlarförsök kommer att hjälpa forskare och veteförädlare att utveckla nya sorter som är resistenta mot växtskadegöraren och därigenom undvika ett större utbrott och en potentiell katastrof. De resistenta vetesorter som kommer att utvecklas i detta projekt ger odlare säkrare avkastning med minskad risk för skördeskador och även minskad användning av fungicider.

Each year, more than 96 million tons of yam (Dioscorea spp.) are produced in Sub-Saharan Africa on an area of 8.3 M Ha. Over 95% of this production lies in Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana, and Côte d´Ivoire. Therefore, yam has a high potential to mitigate at least three of the 17 sustainable development goals: ”No Poverty”, “Zero Hunger” and “Good Health and Well-being”.Yam is a climbing vine with an indeterminate growth habit that, for optimal yield, needs to grow on a support, usually in the form of stakes making cost effective mechanization difficult. Developing yam varieties that yield well without growth support is a prioritized goal among yam breeders. Since such varieties are not available, we propose to study molecular factors controlling plant architecture using metabolomics and transcriptomics to identify key genes and signaling mechanisms regulating growth habit. Such results will be crucial to design molecular markers to be used in yam breeding programs as well as biotechnological approaches such as gene editing. Genotypes which do not need support system for maximal yield would be a game changer in yam agronomy and benefit the yam industry as well as the small household farmers.The project will in parallel offer considerable opportunities for knowledge transfer and training student and researchers in several advanced molecular technologies and bioinformatics. Jams är en viktig jordbruksväxt i västra Afrika, framför allt i Nigeria. Efterfrågan är hög och jams är den mest värdefulla grödan i västra Afrika. Vi vill studera hur jamsens växtsätt regleras på molekylär nivå. Målet är att ta reda på vilka gener som styr växtsättet, för att sedan använda den kunskapen för att ta fram kortväxande sorter som är lättare att odla.Jamsodling är arbetskrävande eftersom växten behöver klättra på ett stöd. Därför blir det svårt att använda mekaniska redskap i odlingen. Att ta fram korta sorter som kan växa utan stöd har varit en förutsättning för att man ska kunna odla bland annat ärtor, bönor och tomater på ett effektivt sätt.För att få en kortväxande jams som fortfarande bildar stora knölar är det viktigt att förstå både vad som händer i bladen och i rötterna. Hos många växtarter styrs växtsätt, blomning och bildandet av frukter och rotknölar av samma gener.

Each year, more than 96 million tons of yam (Dioscorea spp.) are produced in Sub-Saharan Africa on an area of 8.3 M Ha. Over 95% of this production lies in Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Ghana, and Côte d´Ivoire. Therefore, yam has a high potential to mitigate at least three of the 17 sustainable development goals: ”No Poverty”, “Zero Hunger” and “Good Health and Well-being”.Yam is a climbing vine with an indeterminate growth habit that, for optimal yield, needs to grow on a support, usually in the form of stakes making cost effective mechanization difficult. Developing yam varieties that yield well without growth support is a prioritized goal among yam breeders. Since such varieties are not available, we propose to study molecular factors controlling plant architecture using metabolomics and transcriptomics to identify key genes and signaling mechanisms regulating growth habit. Such results will be crucial to design molecular markers to be used in yam breeding programs as well as biotechnological approaches such as gene editing. Genotypes which do not need support system for maximal yield would be a game changer in yam agronomy and benefit the yam industry as well as the small household farmers.The project will in parallel offer considerable opportunities for knowledge transfer and training student and researchers in several advanced molecular technologies and bioinformatics. Jams är en viktig jordbruksväxt i västra Afrika, framför allt i Nigeria. Efterfrågan är hög och jams är den mest värdefulla grödan i västra Afrika. Vi vill studera hur jamsens växtsätt regleras på molekylär nivå. Målet är att ta reda på vilka gener som styr växtsättet, för att sedan använda den kunskapen för att ta fram kortväxande sorter som är lättare att odla.Jamsodling är arbetskrävande eftersom växten behöver klättra på ett stöd. Därför blir det svårt att använda mekaniska redskap i odlingen. Att ta fram korta sorter som kan växa utan stöd har varit en förutsättning för att man ska kunna odla bland annat ärtor, bönor och tomater på ett effektivt sätt.För att få en kortväxande jams som fortfarande bildar stora knölar är det viktigt att förstå både vad som händer i bladen och i rötterna. Hos många växtarter styrs växtsätt, blomning och bildandet av frukter och rotknölar av samma gener. Den som har odlat egen färskpotatis vet att plantan inte växer så mycket på höjden när den har börjat blomma, och att man kan skörda de första potatisarna ungefär när blommorna slår ut.Vi kommer att ta prover från blad och rötter från olika sorters jams vid olika tidpunkter.

The separated fresh urine is stabilised in a low-tech reactor where it is passively dosed with novel alkaline earth chemical pellets. This allows stabilised urine to be transported from households with zero nutrient loss for further treatment in a centralised dryer that produces high-quality solid fertilisers. The focus of the planned research is to develop pellets for the reactor that capture all the nutrients in urine (especially nitrogen), while removing organics pollutants and malodour-causing substances from urine. The bulk of the pellet is made of low-cost chemical stabilisers which are globally available. The pellets will be evaluated against real-life aspects and natural contaminants before they are field-tested in a household-scale reactor. The piloting will be done in an urban area in Bolivia where urine diverting systems with central collection of urine and faeces exists. Tillgång till säkert vatten och avlopp är en mänsklig rättighet som har ett eget mål inom de globala uthållighetsmålen som FN har satt upp inom ramarna för agenda 2030. Målet är bland annat att vi skall halvera mängden obehandlat avloppsvatten som vi släpper ut i miljön. Idag släpps nästan 80% av allt avloppsvatten ut obehandlat i våra vattendrag. I detta projekt samlas urinen in separat. Urinen innehåller ca 80% av all växtnäring som finns i vårt avlopp medan den är mindre än 1% av volymen. Genom att samla urinen och avdunsta vattnet får vi en koncentrerad gödselresurs i stället för en miljöförorening. För att kunna koncentrera urinen måste den biokemiska aktiviteten i urinen stoppas så att urean (värdens vanligaste gödselmedel) som är den huvudsakliga kvävesubstansen, inte bryts ned innan vattnet avdunstas. Projektet första del handlar om att utveckla självdoserande kemikalier för urinstabilisering, baserat på ämnenas löslighet i vatten/urin, där en dos i månaden doseras ut i de 300L urin som förväntas samlas in under månaden. Genom att variera produktionstemperaturen och tiden kan man producera magnesium- och kalciumhydroxider och -oxider med olika löslighet och därmed olika reaktioner och pH i urinen. Den andra delen är att undersöka effekten av de utvecklade oxiderna och hydroxiderna när urinen är kontaminerade av fekalier, menstruationsblod och rengöringsmedel samt hur behandlingen kan optimeras för att minimera lukten från den torkade urinen. När rätt sammansättning för effektiv behandling har hittats kommer systemet att testas först i lab och sedan i full skala på ett urinsorterande system i Monteiro i Bolivia där urinen infiltreras i marken idag.

It is therefore a promising plant resource to improve farmers’ income and nutrition. However, its genetic resources have limitedly been explored and utilized in secondary diversity genepools such as Southeast Africa’s. Therefore, the overall purpose of this starting grant proposal is to harness the genetic and ecological diversity of avocado resources for adaptation to climate change and farmers’ wellbeing in Tanzania, a secondary center of avocado diversity. We hypothesize that adaptation in response to local ecological opportunities and inter-racial hybridization may sustainably source the rapid growth of avocado plantations in Tanzania. During four years, a total of 900 trees, and their progenies, will be monitored through extensive field surveys, greenhouse experiments, whole-genome re-sequencing (WGR), and last-generation analytical approaches such as genomic prediction and machine learning. This effort will throw lights into the standing variation of avocado resources in Tanzania, as well as into innovative ways to leverage such diversity. Assessing crop recourses at this secondary center will ultimately unlock its extraordinary agro-biodiversity to make avocado fruit trees more resilient to climate change and profitable for farmers, while sustainably offsetting the winnowing effects of intensive cropping on natural genetic variation. Varifrån kommer egentligen maten som vi äter? Under de senaste 12 000 åren har ungefär 2 500 växtarter förädlats över hela världen i något som Darwin ansett vara det största evolutionära experimentet som människor någonsin utfört. Forskningen inom grödor har lett till insikten om att specifika geografiska områden är särskilt viktiga för utvecklingen av grödor. Afrika, en av dessa främsta regioner av växtbiologisk mångfald, innehar en häpnadsväckande outforskad variation av grödor och deras besläktade vilda arter. Två huvudsakliga processer tas vanligtvis upp för att förklara den överväldigande agrikulturella biologiska mångfalden vid denna hetfläck. Topografiska komplexitet och framträdande miljöheterogenitet ha gett upphov till unika ekologiska anpassningar. Alternativt privilegierade biogeografi, ha agerat som en smältdegel för genetisk korsning av olika arter.Detta projekt ämnar kontrastera båda dessa hypoteser genom att utforska genetisk och ekologisk mångfald i de ikoniska och näringsrika tanzaniska avokado.

It is therefore a promising plant resource to improve farmers’ income and nutrition. However, its genetic resources have limitedly been explored and utilized in secondary diversity genepools such as Southeast Africa’s. Therefore, the overall purpose of this starting grant proposal is to harness the genetic and ecological diversity of avocado resources for adaptation to climate change and farmers’ wellbeing in Tanzania, a secondary center of avocado diversity. We hypothesize that adaptation in response to local ecological opportunities and inter-racial hybridization may sustainably source the rapid growth of avocado plantations in Tanzania. During four years, a total of 900 trees, and their progenies, will be monitored through extensive field surveys, greenhouse experiments, whole-genome re-sequencing (WGR), and last-generation analytical approaches such as genomic prediction and machine learning. This effort will throw lights into the standing variation of avocado resources in Tanzania, as well as into innovative ways to leverage such diversity. Assessing crop recourses at this secondary center will ultimately unlock its extraordinary agro-biodiversity to make avocado fruit trees more resilient to climate change and profitable for farmers, while sustainably offsetting the winnowing effects of intensive cropping on natural genetic variation. Varifrån kommer egentligen maten som vi äter? Under de senaste 12 000 åren har ungefär 2 500 växtarter förädlats över hela världen i något som Darwin ansett vara det största evolutionära experimentet som människor någonsin utfört. Forskningen inom grödor har lett till insikten om att specifika geografiska områden är särskilt viktiga för utvecklingen av grödor. Afrika, en av dessa främsta regioner av växtbiologisk mångfald, innehar en häpnadsväckande outforskad variation av grödor och deras besläktade vilda arter. Två huvudsakliga processer tas vanligtvis upp för att förklara den överväldigande agrikulturella biologiska mångfalden vid denna hetfläck. Topografiska komplexitet och framträdande miljöheterogenitet ha gett upphov till unika ekologiska anpassningar. Alternativt privilegierade biogeografi, ha agerat som en smältdegel för genetisk korsning av olika arter.Detta projekt ämnar kontrastera båda dessa hypoteser genom att utforska genetisk och ekologisk mångfald i de ikoniska och näringsrika tanzaniska avokado. Detta projekt kommer särskilt att övervaka 900 odlade avokadoträd samt fröplantor under fyra år.

The research is important because local communities in several low income countries depend on and live in close association with wetlands and consequently possess rich relevant TEK.

However, despite recognition that the biocultural diversity of native ecosystems is central for ensuring equitable access to earth’s resources, these values are seldom included in species selection for reforestation. Hence, 4 out of 5 trees planted is an exotic tree that, although they grow well, partly because the genetic potential have been maximized and hence are suitable for the global carbon market, bring few benefit for rebuilding biocultural diversity. With the aim to challenge the dogma that exotics are the only option for reforestation in the tropics we will conduct a holistic screening of 34 native tree species across three sites representing large fraction of the biocultural diverse Maritime SE Asia (Timor-Leste, Borneo and West Papua). We will assess trade-offs among production and C-sequestration, cultural values, and ecological functions. We will then use our 8000 tree genetic experiment to test the hypothesis that plant genetics can modulate important functions and enhance synergies. By demonstrating the genetic and biocultural potential of native trees, the goal of this project is to foster a change in policy and in reforestation practice and hence positively impact the many millions of people depending on degraded ecosystems for their livelihood. Tropiska skogar är bland de mest artrika ekosystemen i världen och när dessa ekosystem överutnyttjas så får det stora konsekvenser för både ekosystemets funktion och för de människor som är beroende av dessa funktioner för sin överlevnad.  Sådana förändringar är fundamentala och verkar på alla aspekter av människors liv; de sträcker sig från de basala behoven att klara sin försörjning till att förlora sin biokulturella kontext. Klart är också att det i många fall är de fattiga människor i tropiska regioner som drabbas hårdast av detta.Positivt är att världens länder nu enats om att vi måste återskapa inhemska ekosystem så att de på nytt kan bidra med viktiga nyttor. Trots detta återbeskogas fortfarande en stor majoritet av dessa områden med exotiska trädslag som  växer bra men som bidrar mycket lite till att återskapa inhemska ekosystem. Vi förespråkar att man med hjälp av bättre kunskap om de inhemska trädarternas olika egenskaper kan förutse funktionalitet och därmed tillgodose fler funktioner utan att nödvändigtvis behöva plantera fler trädarter. I det här projektet kommer vi nyttja vår forskningsinfrastruktur i Sabah, Borneo för att undersöka multifunktionaliteten hos 34 tropiska trädarter.  Vi kommer att utvärdera potentialen hos dessa träd att förutom att tillgodose hög produktion och kolinlagring också främja biodiversitet och ekosystemtjänster samt förse människor med viktiga alternativa förtjänster som ofta går förlorade när skogar utarmas. Som en viktig del i denna utvärdering kommer vi också undersöka trädens förmåga att leverera dessa ekosystemtjänster i ett framtida torrare klimat.Det slutliga målet med detta projekt är att etablera nya protokoll för trädslagsval i restaurering där större fokus läggs på multifunktionalitet och att de restaurerade skogarna ska leverera viktiga nyttor för de ofta fattiga människor som lever i och av dessa skogar.

However, despite recognition that the biocultural diversity of native ecosystems is central for ensuring equitable access to earth’s resources, these values are seldom included in species selection for reforestation. Hence, 4 out of 5 trees planted is an exotic tree that, although they grow well, partly because the genetic potential have been maximized and hence are suitable for the global carbon market, bring few benefit for rebuilding biocultural diversity. With the aim to challenge the dogma that exotics are the only option for reforestation in the tropics we will conduct a holistic screening of 34 native tree species across three sites representing large fraction of the biocultural diverse Maritime SE Asia (Timor-Leste, Borneo and West Papua). We will assess trade-offs among production and C-sequestration, cultural values, and ecological functions. We will then use our 8000 tree genetic experiment to test the hypothesis that plant genetics can modulate important functions and enhance synergies.

In the UN’s present “Decade of Restoration”, countries around the world have pledged to restore hundreds of millions of hectares of degraded forests — targeting rural areas of the global south where millions of rural and indigenous people live. While these efforts have potential to support a range of environmental priorities, it remains unclear to what extent large-scale restoration efforts are compatible with rural needs and other development objectives. Responding to growing calls for strengthening community rights and involvement, we ask: How, and under what conditions, can community forest governance lead to improvements in human well-being, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity from forest restoration? This mixed-methods project explores how national and state-level policy efforts in Nepal and India shape local influence in restoration planning, and we build a large dataset to test how different local governance conditions impact livelihoods, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity. In so doing, our work provides key advances to (a) better incorporate multi-scalar power and politics in theories of environmental governance, (b) generate new evidence of the relationship between carbon sequestration, biodiversity, and rural well-being, and (c) support policy innovations to advance toward a more just and sustainable global future. Skogsrestaurering står i fokus i den globala miljöpolitiken. 2020-talet har förklarats "Årtiondet av restaurering" av FN och länder runt om i världen har åtagit sig att återställa miljontals hektar av förstörda skogar. Skogsrestaurering kan bidra till kolbindning, bevara biologisk mångfald samt förbättra välbefinnandet för skogsberoende människor. Dock lever uppskattningsvis 300 miljoner människor, däribland ursprungsbefolkningar, i prioriterade skogslandskap i det globala syd. Insatser för att återställa skog kan komma i konflikt med annan markanvändning såsom jordbruk och betesmark och därmed underminera försörjningsstrategier, matsäkerhet och andra hållbarhetsmål. Att ge lokalsamhällen makt att påverka planering av skogsrestaurering har förespråkats för att säkerställa att restaureringsprojekten överensstämmer med lokala behov och att lokalbefolkning är investerad i den långsiktiga förvaltningen.

However, responding to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) on gender equality – clling on states and non-state actors to recognise and value UCDW – new global partnerships between public and private actors are now being formed. As the first study of the emerging global governance of UCDW, this project follows three partnerships led by the UN, business experts and one NGO from global policy documents and sites of decision-making to Kenya where all partnerships are active. Through a critical policy analysis and ethnographic fieldwork, the aim is to identify and compare the different ways in which UCDW is governed and assess the reshaping of gendered power relations. Building on social reproduction theory, it develops a framework to analyse a) guiding policy frames i.e. economic growth or gender justice, b) strategies to mitigate, replenish or transform UCDW, and c) effects on the responsibility for and provision of care among public and private actors, civil society and households. With a specific focus on the experiences of vulnerable groups, the ones most affected by the lack of care infrastructure, the study wishes to strengthen development partners’ awareness of the complexities of UCDW as they aim to alter it in alignment with the SDGs.

The purpose of the project is to advance knowledge on the relationships between energy transition and energy access in the context of Nepal. Energy transition in Nepal runs along two parallel processes: a transition from low-access to high access to modern energy for meeting the demands of the population, and a transition from fossil-fuel based energy to renewable energy. However, little has been known about how these two processes relate to each other.By defining access as the ability to derive benefits from energy sources, we aim to identify the differentiated patterns of means, relations, and processes that enable/disable small businesses and households’ opportunities to have access, alleviate poverty and derive benefits from energy transition.Our core research questions are: How and to what extent is energy access achieved in the transition from fossil-fuel based energy to renewable energy? How is energy proverty and energy transition related? By providing qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the ramifications of energy access (SDG 7) for other areas of sustainable development, this study contributes to the need to harmonize global agreement of Sustainable Development Goals with local realities on the ground. Nepal är ett av världens minst utvecklade länder med en av de lägsta nivåerna av energiförbrukning per capita. Landet saknar även större tillgångar av kol, naturgas eller olja. Den kraftiga jordbävningen i april 2015 förvärrade tillgången till energi då cirka 30% av el-infrastrukturen skadades. Inbördeskriget mellan det maoistiska upproret och Nepals regering ledde till politisk instabilitet som drabbade de statligt ägda sektorerna, inklusive energisektorn, och ledde till ett fragmenterat ledarskap, förändrade prioriteringar och politisk diskontinuitet. Under fredsprocessen efter konflikten startade regeringen ett antal reformer. Detta projekt syftar till att analysera den Nepalesiska energiomställningen och problematiserar om den kommer att öka energitillgången för utsatta grupper eller inte.Övergången mot en koldioxidsnål ekonomi genom energiomställning är ett av kärnelementen i åtgärderna för att motverka klimatförändringarna.  Som en av de länder som för närvarande har lägst växthusgasutsläpp står Nepal inför stora utmaningar i att hantera klimatförändringarna och samtidigt säkra tillgången till energi.

The purpose of the project is to advance knowledge on the relationships between energy transition and energy access in the context of Nepal. Energy transition in Nepal runs along two parallel processes: a transition from low-access to high access to modern energy for meeting the demands of the population, and a transition from fossil-fuel based energy to renewable energy. However, little has been known about how these two processes relate to each other.By defining access as the ability to derive benefits from energy sources, we aim to identify the differentiated patterns of means, relations, and processes that enable/disable small businesses and households’ opportunities to have access, alleviate poverty and derive benefits from energy transition.Our core research questions are: How and to what extent is energy access achieved in the transition from fossil-fuel based energy to renewable energy? How is energy proverty and energy transition related? By providing qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the ramifications of energy access (SDG 7) for other areas of sustainable development, this study contributes to the need to harmonize global agreement of Sustainable Development Goals with local realities on the ground. Nepal är ett av världens minst utvecklade länder med en av de lägsta nivåerna av energiförbrukning per capita. Landet saknar även större tillgångar av kol, naturgas eller olja. Den kraftiga jordbävningen i april 2015 förvärrade tillgången till energi då cirka 30% av el-infrastrukturen skadades. Inbördeskriget mellan det maoistiska upproret och Nepals regering ledde till politisk instabilitet som drabbade de statligt ägda sektorerna, inklusive energisektorn, och ledde till ett fragmenterat ledarskap, förändrade prioriteringar och politisk diskontinuitet. Under fredsprocessen efter konflikten startade regeringen ett antal reformer. Detta projekt syftar till att analysera den Nepalesiska energiomställningen och problematiserar om den kommer att öka energitillgången för utsatta grupper eller inte.Övergången mot en koldioxidsnål ekonomi genom energiomställning är ett av kärnelementen i åtgärderna för att motverka klimatförändringarna.  Som en av de länder som för närvarande har lägst växthusgasutsläpp står Nepal inför stora utmaningar i att hantera klimatförändringarna och samtidigt säkra tillgången till energi. Klimatförändringarna kan å ena sidan resultera i att energitillgången hotas eftersom man uppskattar att särskilt landsbygdssamhällen som bor i bergen kan förlora tillgången till sina energikällor för matlagning. Å andra sidan ses utveckling av förnybar energi som en lösning för att övervinna den sårbarhet som skapas av klimatförändringar. Detta projekt kommer att belysa dessa parallella processer och spänningar vid skärningspunkten mellan energi och klimatförändringar.  Genom att tillhandahålla kvalitativa och kvantitativa nationstäckande data om förändrade mönster i energitillgång bidrar denna studie till behovet av att harmonisera det globala avtalet om hållbara utvecklingsmål med lokala realiteter på marken, särskilt gällande SDG 7 (tillgång till ren energi) i förhållande till SDG 10 (minskade ojämlikheter), SDG 11 (hållbara samhällen).

Despite the importance of these forests’ re-growth to climate change mitigation and livelihoods of poor smallholders living in them, they are almost invisible in research and of low priority in climate change agendas. Secondary forest areas are typically located in rural ‘frontiers’, where commodity crops expand and where government presence, authority and legitimacy is limited and land rights are contested. Taking the Peruvian Amazon as a case, this research will engage with two commodity frontiers (cacao, oil palm). We will explore how these commodity frontiers reshape smallholder secondary forest and the role of the law, the state, the market and smallholder land claims in relation to the making of diverse tropical secondary forest landscapes. We will explore the assemblages of commodity frontier actors around these commodity frontiers. Knowledge of how regrowth is enabled or hindered socially and politically in tropical landscapes, where competition for land is high and the state has limited control, is crucial for supporting future global/national forest policy and climate adaptation/mitigation agendas. It also contributes to improving the livelihoods of poor and forest dependent households. We will use village studies to capture the local dynamics of commodity frontiers. This will be combined with analyses of commodity markets, relevant policies and laws and their implementation. Den skog som växer upp efter att urskog har försvunnit kallas sekundärskog och den står idag för hela 70% av skogarna i tropikerna.

Sådana skogar försörjer också fattiga småbrukare som lever och verkar i tropiska skogslandskap.Tropiska sekundärskogar är ofta belägna i så kallade ’gränsland’, det är områden där statens närvaro och legitimitet är mycket begränsad och ifrågasatt. Där konkurrerar småbrukare om markresurser med en snabbt växande odling av flera kommersiella grödor. Vi kommer att undersöka hur odlingen av två sådana kommersiella grödor (kakao, oljepalm) i Peru generar nya gränsland och driver på sammanlänkade processer. Genom att använda begreppen sekundärskog, gränsland och territorialisering bygger vi förståelse för hur de politiska- och sociala processerna ser ut som formar tropiska skogslandskap, hur fattiga människor använder sin mark och hur lagen säkerställer (eller inte säkerställer) deras rättigheter. Man kan säga att det pågår en kamp om vem som ska använda skogen, hur den ska användas och för vilka ändamål.Under 3 år kommer svenska och peruanska forskare att göra bystudier i fyra skilda skogslandskap, där vi kombinerar olika former av intervjuer och fältvandringar tillsammans med bönder.

The collaboration aims to shift thinking away from a risk to an uncertainty framing of the hazards of mountain lives, paying attention to the time preference behavior of poor people and generate new research capacities, proposals and deliberative policy approaches to respond to this. Mountains are centers of social marginality and are deeply affected by climate change. Uncertainties cannot be given probabilities in contrast to risks and can be a threat or an opportunity. The challenge is to understand how households navigate hazards and the conditions that might allow them to build transformational resilience capacities. The collaboration with partners in Nepal, India and Bhutan will foster debate, learning and develop new methods of understanding of uncertainty and its sources in different mountain contexts. Key collaboration activities will include meetings in each country research site. These will involve joint field visits, analytical workshops for sharing new learning and planning research outputs, seminars with relevant partners and deliberative policy engagement activities with selected policy makers. Virtual writing workshops will support writing processes and new research proposals. During the two year collaboration we will visit each partner country site exploring the contextually specific nature of uncertainty. Levnadsvillkoren i Sydasiens berg kännetecknas av fattigdom och ökande klimatförändringar. Människorna där lever under förhållanden där osäkerhet kännetecknar deras liv.Vi menar att det är viktigt att skilja mellan osäkerhet och risk. Risk är ett snarlikt koncept, men när man jobbar med risker så utgår man från ’sannolikheter’ och ’handlingsplaner’. Termen osäkerhet beskriver istället ett spektrum av den diffusa oklarhet, ovisshet och okunnighet som många familjer upplever, och som kan vara både hot eller möjligt. Utmaningen är att förstå hur hushåll navigerar genom olika sorts osäkerheter. Vad det är som gör det möjligt för några att återhämta sig från kriser, medans andra att blir allt fattigare? Det här är ett forskningsfält där det saknas forskning och bra forskningsmetoder.

If farmers who know the landraces of vegetables meet with scientists to address issues of field-based plant production, then a strong network of knowledge and experience can support the development of indigenous vegetable crops. Initial focus for our network is on questions of breeding and ecological management of pests of African eggplant, Solanum aethiopicum, in Uganda. The longer-run vision is to further develop the hub to serve East Africa with field experimentation that is integrated with training in theoretical aspects of breeding, production, and ecologically-based management for indigenous vegetables.Field experimental gardens at Ugandan Christian University are proposed to serve as a meeting centre for smallholder farmers, academics, students and advisory services. The aim is to identify and develop opportunities for increasing yields and nutritional content of African indigenous vegetables under threats of pests, diseases and unpredictable climate.

Huvudfokus för vårt nätverk ligger på forskningsfrågor relaterade till växtförädling och ekologi-baserad kontroll av skadeinsekter, initialt med huvudfokus på afrikansk aubergine, Solanum aethiopicum, i Uganda, och på sikt med ett bredare fokus på grönsaksodling i Östafrika. Det långsiktiga målet är således att vidareutveckla vårt samarbete till ett nav till stöd för fältexperiment i Östafrika, ett nav som integrerar forskning med utbildning i teori av växtförädling, växtproduktion och ekologi-baserad skötsel av inhemska grönsaker.Tillgången på lokalt anpassade och förädlade grönsaker som är rimligt prissatta och som konsumenterna föredrar kan bidra till ökad livsmedelssäkerhet och minskad fattigdom hos småbrukare i Afrika söder om Sahara. Om lantbrukare som har kännedom om grönsaks-lantraserna träffar forskare med djup kännedom av ekologisk teori för att diskutera frågor om gårdsbaserad växtproduktion, kan ett starkt nätverk av kunskap och erfarenhet stödja en långsiktig hållbar utveckling av inhemska grönsaksgrödor.Vi föreslår ett antal experimentella fältförsök vid Uganda Christian University som ska fungera som en mötesplats för småbrukare, jordbruksrådgivare och universitetsforskare.

If farmers who know the landraces of vegetables meet with scientists to address issues of field-based plant production, then a strong network of knowledge and experience can support the development of indigenous vegetable crops. Initial focus for our network is on questions of breeding and ecological management of pests of African eggplant, Solanum aethiopicum, in Uganda. The longer-run vision is to further develop the hub to serve East Africa with field experimentation that is integrated with training in theoretical aspects of breeding, production, and ecologically-based management for indigenous vegetables.Field experimental gardens at Ugandan Christian University are proposed to serve as a meeting centre for smallholder farmers, academics, students and advisory services. The aim is to identify and develop opportunities for increasing yields and nutritional content of African indigenous vegetables under threats of pests, diseases and unpredictable climate.

During COVID-related lockdowns, mental distress has increased in high-income settings but primary data from Africa and appropriate interventions are lacking. However mental health is closely interlinked with school closures, lost life opportunities, poverty, food insecurity. This large population-based study in Uganda aims to analyse the occurrence of the most common mental disorders (depression, anxiety) and alcohol abuse, and interactions with poverty, age, gender, reproductive health (HIV), urbanicity, food insecurity and partner violence.

However mental health is closely interlinked with school closures, lost life opportunities, poverty, food insecurity. This large population-based study in Uganda aims to analyse the occurrence of the most common mental disorders (depression, anxiety) and alcohol abuse, and interactions with poverty, age, gender, reproductive health (HIV), urbanicity, food insecurity and partner violence.

While the urgency is based on ecological evidence and receives state, corporate and civil society support, the rolling out of green investments at the local level can be highly problematic. Green initiatives tend to be implemented in economically and politically marginalized regions, and reproduce existing social and environmental injustices through dynamics of dispossession. The proposed project’s purpose is to provide novel insights into emerging conflict dynamics over land-based resources in the wake of green investments in the East African drylands. Its specific aim is to study how multiple stakeholders engage in conflicts that emerge at the intersection of green energy investments and conservation efforts on one hand, and pastoralist community’s control over communal land resources through ongoing land reform policies that aim to provide tenure-security for local communities on the other. This will be achieved through a multi-site ethnography in two counties in northern Kenya, with data being collected through a strategic combination of questionnaires, interviews, and focus groups, supported by document analysis. The results are expected to produce advice and identify lessons for wider East African drylands, which share similar challenges to secure community land tenure in the face of green investments. The governance of natural resources and the livelihoods of people inhabiting marginalized spaces are central to this research, with a particular focus on the implications of the implementation of various green development policies and projects with a capacity to fundamentally transform the drylands. These policies and projects are likely to affect men and women differently, due to inequalities between men and women regarding property rights, access to decision making platforms, and access to resources, which taken together determine livelihood pathways as well as the outcomes of these policies and projects. Women are one of the social groups most vulnerable to the impacts of land dispossession. This research will therefore take sex and gender perspectives into account, making it essential to methodologically and analytically include gender perspectives in the research design and implementation. Methodologically, the research design ensures that not only the perspective of the powerful is taken into consideration. Instead, the data gathering process will ensure to include and have full representation of different subjectivities and social groups throughout this research, including people of different sex, gender, age and background. Gathering insights and perspectives of a diversity of people require the creation of safe spaces for expressing a diversity of positions and claims. Furthermore, the research project will ensure that these insights are given equal analytical importance, a task that forms an integrated part of the overall goal of the research.

På senare tid har de nära kopplingarna mellan klimatförändringar och förlust av biodiversitet uppmärksammats internationellt av såväl forskare som beslutsfattare och lett till krav på så kallade ´gröna investeringar´. Ny samhällsvetenskaplig forskning varnar för att en uppskalning av ´gröna investeringar´ kan komma att förstärka befintliga sociala och miljömässiga orättvisor och ojämlikheter gentemot befolkningsgrupper som idag använder markresurser i områden som anses attraktiva för energi- och bevarandeinitiativ. Det huvudsakliga syftet  att ta fram ny kunskap om de konflikter kring landbaserade resurser som växer fram i kölvattnet av de gröna investeringar som blir allt mer vanligt förekommande i torrområden i Östafrika. Projektet kommer särskilt studera denna problematik i Kenya, där gröna investeringar riskerar att leda till att befolkningsgrupper förlorar tillgång till eller kontroll över viktiga, kollektiva landbaserade naturresurser, samtidigt som en pågående landreform genomförs vars målsättning är att ge lokala befolkningsgrupper tydligare och starkare rättigheter till den mark de är beroende av för sin försörjning. Projektets målsättning är att att studera hur nya konstellationer av samhällsaktörer engagerar sig i de konflikter som uppstår i ljuset av snabbt ökande behov av landbaserade resurser för internationellt drivna energi- och bevarande-projekt. Projektet avser att uppnå denna målsättning genom fördjupande, etnografiska fallstudier av två sådana projekt, som systematiskt kombinerar olika datainsamlingmetoder. Resultaten av studien förväntas ge ett unikt underlag för lärdomar och råd för hur behovet av ´gröna investeringar´ bör genomföras i Östafrika för att skapa synergier mellan det ökande internationella behovet av kraftfulla åtgärder för att motverka klimatförändringar, samt behovet av att stärka fattiga befolkningsgruppers rätt till tillgång och kontroll över de landbaserade naturresurser de är långsiktigt beroende av för sin samhällsutveckling. Styrningen av naturresurser och försörjningen för människor som bor i marginaliserade utrymmen är centrala för denna forskning, med särskilt fokus på implikationerna av genomförandet av olika gröna utvecklingspolicyer och projekt med kapacitet att fundamentalt omvandla torrområdena. Dessa policyer och projekt kommer sannolikt att påverka män och kvinnor på olika sätt, på grund av ojämlikhet mellan män och kvinnor när det gäller äganderätt, tillgång till beslutsfattande plattformar och tillgång till resurser, som tillsammans avgör försörjningsvägar såväl som resultaten av dessa policyer och projekt. Kvinnor är en av de sociala grupper som är mest sårbara för effekterna av markfördrivning. Denna forskning kommer därför att ta hänsyn till köns- och genusperspektiv, vilket gör det väsentligt att metodologiskt och analytiskt inkludera genusperspektiv i forskningsdesign och genomförande. Metodologiskt säkerställer forskningsdesignen att inte bara de mäktigas perspektiv tas i beaktande. Istället kommer datainsamlingsprocessen att säkerställa att den inkluderar och har en fullständig representation av olika subjektiviteter och sociala grupper genom hela denna forskning, inklusive människor av olika kön, kön, ålder och bakgrund.

This multi-sited, interdisciplinary qualitative project examines how Myanmar citizenship – both in law and experience – has been forged through histories of conflict and displacement. The project links previous experiences of citizenship, displacement, and statelessness in the borderlands and urban Myanmar to new forms of displacement, statelessness, and conceptions of citizenship triggered by Myanmar’s 2021 military coup. In tracing how the conditions necessary for both displacement and statelessness are created overtime, it investigates the ways in which noncitizenship status increases the risk of displacement and how displacement increases the risk of statelessness. This collaborative research project will be carried out primarily in Thailand along the Thai-Myanmar border. In addition to interviews with civil society organizations working with displaced Myanmar people and Myanmar people living in diaspora, Myanmar research teams will employ oral history interviews with religious minority communities originating from Myanmar now settled in Thailand. The project also makes extensive use of archival materials to trace histories of statelessness, citizenship, and displacement in Myanmar. Detta forskningsprojekt undersöker relationen mellan medborgarskap och folkförflyttningar i Myanmar. Rohingya är idag den största statslösa folkgruppen i världen, och det största flyktinglägret är beläget vid gränsen mellan Bangladesh och Myanmar. Det finns en hel del forskning som rör tvångsförflyttningar av Rohingya och deras statslöshet, men det finns betydligt mindre forskning när det gäller medborgarskap, statslöshet, och tvångsförflyttningar av Myanmar’s andra religiösa grupper och etniska minoriteter. Liksom när det gäller Rohingya så har många av de icke-officiella minoriteterna (t.ex. hinduer, muslimer, etniska kineser, indier, och Gurkhas) inte ställning som etniska minoritieter enligt Myanmars lagar. De får inte medborgarskap vid födelsen utan måste gå igenom en verifieringsprocess av sitt medborgarskap vilket kan ta många år och även resultera i att det inte får något medborgskap.Att studera dessa gruppers erfarenheter, svårigheter när det gäller medborgarskap, och folkförflyttningar över gränsen från Myanmar till Thailand, är centralt för att förstå hur statslöshet tar sig uttryck över tid och både är ett resultat av och resulterar i tvångsförflyttningar. Projektet avser att dokumentera dessa generationsöverskridande och gränsöverskridande historier av tvångsförflyttningar för att förstå statslöshet som ett komplext socialt och politiskt fenomen som orsakar både påtvingad rörlighet och orörlighet.  Statslöshet påverkar människors liv på många sätt och över flera generationer. Det innebär diskriminering inom många områden och påverkar t.ex. tillgången till utbildning, försörjningsmöjligheterna, inklusive både ägande och arbete, hälsa och trygghet. Att förhindra statslöshet och hantera utdragen tvångsförflyttning som orsakas av eller leder till statslöshet är centralt för att kunna uppnå FN:s hållbarhetsmål. Men för att detta skall kunna ske krävs också en historiskt grundad kunskap och en förståelse av den lokala kontexten och formerna av statslöshet.

Central America and the Caribbean is a region where the number of undernourished people has increased, moving this region away from meeting the Sustainable Development Goals 2 and 3 (Zero Hunger and Good Health, respectively) by 2030. The project is carried out in collaboration with Guatemala and Honduras and the goal is to promote the development of sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) cultivars with high content of bioavailable iron and help reducing anaemia and hidden hunger. Sweetpotato lines, selected for having high iron levels, are being tested on the fields of both countries to determine the effect of climate and soil on the content of bioavailable iron. These plants will be used for omics studies whose result will be used to do an in silico metabolic reconstruction of the metabolism of iron. Also a CRISPR-Cas genome editing protocol will be developed to target the identified genes associated with the translocation of iron. Finally, the bioavailability of iron will be determined using a human cell model. In this way, this project will improve the understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind the uptake, mobilization, and storage of iron in sweet potato. It is very likely that the results obtained in this study can also be extended to other plant species, promoting the nutritional enrichment of iron in other crops. I Latinamerika och Karibien ökar antalet undernärda människor på grund av konsumtionen av mat som är fattig på näringsämnen som järn, zink och vitamin A och B12. Under 2017 uthärdade 39,3 miljoner människor hunger. Efter Covid-19-pandemin har denna situation förvärrats. Denna ökning tar regionen längre från att uppfylla målen för hållbar utveckling 2 och 3 - Noll hunger och god hälsa - till 2030.Anemi på grund av järnbrist är den överlägset vanligaste bristen på mikronäringsämnen i världen och drabbar mer än 2 miljarder människor. Järnbrist vid ung ålder försämrar den fysiska tillväxten, mentala utvecklingen och inlärningsförmågan. Hos vuxna minskar järnbrist och anemi förmågan att utföra fysiskt arbete och ökar risken för att kvinnor dör under eller efter en förlossning. Prevalensen av anemi hos barn från Honduras, Guatemala och Haiti är 29 %, 40 % respektive 72 %. Extrema och varierande väderförhållanden är bland nyckelfaktorerna i den senaste tidens ökning av hunger och undernäring eftersom dessa länder är sårbara för klimatförändringar på grund av dess höga exponering för klimatrelaterade faror (orkaner, tropiska stormar, översvämningar, torka, jordskred). Behovet av en gröda med hög halt av biotillgängligt järn är akut. Genom att integrera "bioförstärkning" (biofortification) med "biotillgänglighet" (bioavailability) av essentiella mikronäringsämnen kommer effekten av matens näringskvalitet att bli större.Detta projekt fokuserar på sötpotatis (Ipomoea batatas) som är en mycket viktig regional basgröda.

Central America and the Caribbean is a region where the number of undernourished people has increased, moving this region away from meeting the Sustainable Development Goals 2 and 3 (Zero Hunger and Good Health, respectively) by 2030. The project is carried out in collaboration with Guatemala and Honduras and the goal is to promote the development of sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) cultivars with high content of bioavailable iron and help reducing anaemia and hidden hunger. Sweetpotato lines, selected for having high iron levels, are being tested on the fields of both countries to determine the effect of climate and soil on the content of bioavailable iron. These plants will be used for omics studies whose result will be used to do an in silico metabolic reconstruction of the metabolism of iron. Also a CRISPR-Cas genome editing protocol will be developed to target the identified genes associated with the translocation of iron. Finally, the bioavailability of iron will be determined using a human cell model. In this way, this project will improve the understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind the uptake, mobilization, and storage of iron in sweet potato. It is very likely that the results obtained in this study can also be extended to other plant species, promoting the nutritional enrichment of iron in other crops. I Latinamerika och Karibien ökar antalet undernärda människor på grund av konsumtionen av mat som är fattig på näringsämnen som järn, zink och vitamin A och B12. Under 2017 uthärdade 39,3 miljoner människor hunger. Efter Covid-19-pandemin har denna situation förvärrats.

More than 60% of the agricultural area in SSA is prone to frequent drought. Changes in climate conditions are increasing drought severity making future predictions alarming. Sorghum is a climate-resilient crop preferred by smallholder farmers, particularly during dry seasons, but drought continues causing significant yield nutritional quality losses and threatening food security. Hence, there is an urgent need to improve the drought tolerance of sorghum and enhance the tolerance of the crop in a sustainable way. This project focuses on contributing to the UN development goals, improving food security and reducing poverty, using cutting-edge plant breeding tools and plant-derived biostimulants to enhance drought tolerance in sorghum. It also incorporates climate-smart practices to boost sorghum production during the dry season. This project aims to apply the ‘Breeding-Biostimulant’ approach to enable sorghum to cope with severe drought stress and sustainably improve production, by 1) understanding drought tolerance; 2) genetic association studies; 3) developing and validating markers 4) introducing new drought resistance genes; 4) Circular bio-economy based Climate-smart practices. Jordbruket är stöttepelaren i ekonomin i Afrika söder om Sahara (SSA). Särskilt i Uganda och Zambia, bidrar jordbruket avsevärt till bruttonationalprodukten (BNP) och skapar arbetsmöjligheter för 3/4 av befolkningen. Men det är en skör stöttepelare, eftersom jordbruket i dessa regioner nästan uteslutande består av småbruk som är helt beroende av regnmängden och som ständigt löper en hög risk för vattenbrist. Mer än 60% av jordbruksmarken i SSA är känslig för frekventa och svåra torr-perioder som resulterar i fullständig missväxt. På grund av dessa långtgående konsekvenser för småbrukarnas socioekonomiska villkor är torka synonymt med svält. Därför är det högsta prioritet för lokala och internationella forskningsorganisationer att förbättra torktoleransen för stora grödor, som sorghum.I detta projekt kommer vi att tillämpa det innovativa tillvägagångssättet "Avel-Biostimulant", som främjar ett effektivt utnyttjande av de genetiska resurserna och den cirkulära bioekonomin. Med denna metod ämnar vi att identifiera sorghums torktålighet och öka kunskapen om den genetiska bakgrunden för denna tolerans. Vi kommer att utveckla molekylära markörer och överföra toleransegenskaperna till sorter som brukas av bönderna i Uganda och Zambia. Dessutom kommer vi att använda växtbaserade, miljövänliga biostimulanter och införliva klimatsmarta metoder för att förbättra sorghumens agronomiska prestanda och torktolerans.Detta projekt är ett nära samarbete mellan Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), Makerere University Regional Center for Crop Improvement (MaRCCI), National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO) i Uganda, jordbruksministeriet i Zambia och University of Cornell- Innovation Lab for Crop Improvement (ILCI).

Within this region, migration processes are often heavily mediated, but so far there has been little invesigtation of the MOUs that guide these processes. In doing so, it looks at both the different interests that go into the formation of these agreements, as well as looking at the effects that they have on processes of labor brokerage and recruitment. It does this through interviews with state, regional, and interest group actors as well as through interviews with labor brokers and recruiters. Furthermore, as all the countries examined are members of ASEAN, it also considers the role of regional actors in these processes. Even though migration is often noted as being an important contributor to economic development, labor migrants are often placed in precarious situations, leaving them vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. As MOUs are a common tool of governing labor migration in Southeast Asia, this research therefore helps develop our understanding of how these agreements are formed, and what effects they have. This research therefore has the potential to contribute to knowledge about how to build better migration systems that can support both economic development and worker safety. Detta projekt undersöker rollen som samförståndsavtal (MOUs), en typ av bilateralt arbetsavtal, i processer för rekrytering och bemanning i Indonesien, Vietnam och Malaysia. Därvid tittar projektet på både de olika intressen som ingår i bildandet av dessa avtal, samt på vilka effekter de har på processer för rekrytering och bemanning. Det görs genom intervjuer med statliga, regionala och intresseorganisationers aktörer samt genom intervjuer med rekryterare. Dessutom, eftersom alla de granskade länderna är medlemmar i ASEAN, tar den också hänsyn till regionala aktörers roll i dessa processer.Denna forskning är viktig eftersom även om migration ofta uppmärksammas som en viktig bidragande faktor till ekonomisk utveckling, försätts arbetskraftsinvandrare ofta i prekära situationer, vilket gör dem sårbara för övergrepp och exploatering. Eftersom MOU är ett vanligt verktyg för att styra arbetskraftsinvandring i Sydostasien, hjälper denna forskning därför till att utveckla vår förståelse för hur dessa avtal bildas och vilka effekter de har. Denna forskning har därför potential att bidra till kunskap om hur man bygger bättre migrationssystem som kan stödja både ekonomisk utveckling och arbetarsäkerhet.

Initiated in 2022, the project supports the establishment and development of the Department for Technical Regulations (DTR) within Zambia’s Ministry of Commerce, Trade and Industry, with the objective of creating sustainable structures, processes, and expertise for the management of technical regulations. Since the establishment of DTR in 2023, the National Board of Trade Sweden has provided technical and institutional support to enhance the department’s knowledge of TBT issues, internal coordination, and its ability to support other regulatory authorities. The support focuses on strengthening capacity to conduct trade-related impact assessments of technical regulations and on developing working procedures and coordination mechanisms. During the initial phase, support was provided through a resident expert in Lusaka, while in 2025 the intervention was mainly implemented remotely. The intervention is implemented by the National Board of Trade Sweden in close cooperation with DTR. The long-term development objective is to contribute to the reduction of technical barriers to trade in Zambia, thereby improving conditions for companies to export and import goods. By strengthening DTR’s capacity to analyse, coordinate, and apply technical regulations in line with international commitments, the intervention supports a more predictable regulatory environment, improved trade integration, and sustainable economic development. Insatsen syftar till att stärka Zambias institutionella kapacitet att hantera tekniska handelshinder i enlighet med WTO:s avtal om tekniska handelshinder (TBT-avtalet). Projektet, som inleddes 2022, stödjer etableringen och utvecklingen av Department for Technical Regulations (DTR) vid Zambias handelsministerium, med målet att skapa hållbara strukturer, processer och kompetens för hantering av tekniska föreskrifter. Sedan DTR etablerades 2023 har Kommerskollegium tillhandahållit tekniskt och institutionellt stöd för att stärka enhetens kunskap om tekniska handelshinder, dess interna samordning samt dess förmåga att stödja andra föreskrivande myndigheter. Stödet har omfattat kapacitetsutveckling inom konsekvensbedömningar av handelsaspekter i tekniska föreskrifter samt utveckling av arbetsprocesser och samordningsmekanismer. Under projektets inledande fas fanns en utsänd expert på plats i Lusaka, medan stödet under 2025 huvudsakligen genomförts på distans. Insatsen genomförs av Kommerskollegium i nära samarbete med DTR. Det långsiktiga utvecklingsmålet är att bidra till minskade tekniska handelshinder i Zambia, vilket förbättrar förutsättningarna för företag att exportera och importera varor. Genom att stärka DTR:s kapacitet att analysera, samordna och tillämpa tekniska föreskrifter i linje med internationella åtaganden bidrar insatsen till ett mer förutsägbart regelverk, förbättrad handelsintegration och hållbar ekonomisk utveckling.

Initiated in 2022, the project supports the establishment and development of the Department for Technical Regulations (DTR) within Zambia’s Ministry of Commerce, Trade and Industry, with the objective of creating sustainable structures, processes, and expertise for the management of technical regulations. Since the establishment of DTR in 2023, the National Board of Trade Sweden has provided technical and institutional support to enhance the department’s knowledge of TBT issues, internal coordination, and its ability to support other regulatory authorities. The support focuses on strengthening capacity to conduct trade-related impact assessments of technical regulations and on developing working procedures and coordination mechanisms. During the initial phase, support was provided through a resident expert in Lusaka, while in 2025 the intervention was mainly implemented remotely. The intervention is implemented by the National Board of Trade Sweden in close cooperation with DTR. The long-term development objective is to contribute to the reduction of technical barriers to trade in Zambia, thereby improving conditions for companies to export and import goods. By strengthening DTR’s capacity to analyse, coordinate, and apply technical regulations in line with international commitments, the intervention supports a more predictable regulatory environment, improved trade integration, and sustainable economic development. Insatsen syftar till att stärka Zambias institutionella kapacitet att hantera tekniska handelshinder i enlighet med WTO:s avtal om tekniska handelshinder (TBT-avtalet). Projektet, som inleddes 2022, stödjer etableringen och utvecklingen av Department for Technical Regulations (DTR) vid Zambias handelsministerium, med målet att skapa hållbara strukturer, processer och kompetens för hantering av tekniska föreskrifter.

The programme addresses the need to strengthen institutional capacity to analyse, design and implement trade policies that support sustainable economic development and an improved business climate. The objective is to enhance participants’ and institutions’ ability to apply trade policy analysis as a basis for informed decision-making and to embed these approaches within regular organisational processes. By strengthening competencies in trade policy impact analysis and change management, the project supports balanced consideration of different stakeholder interests in trade policy processes. The programme has been implemented through a combined approach to capacity development, peer learning and network building. It has also had a mutual learning dimension, whereby insights from participants have contributed to strengthening the trade policy expertise and analytical capacity of the National Board of Trade Sweden. The programme has been implemented by the National Board of Trade Sweden, in cooperation with key partners, including the Trade Policy Center for Africa (TRAPCA) in the context of alumni activities. The geographical focus has been Africa, with participants from Zambia, Kenya, Somalia, Rwanda, Namibia and Mozambique, within the sector of trade policy and trade-related institutional capacity development. The long-term development objective is to contribute to sustainable economic development through strengthened trade policy institutions in partner countries. By building lasting capacity in trade policy analysis and change management, the project supports improved participation in international trade, evidence-based trade policy reforms, and deeper integration into regional and global markets. Trade Academy Trade Policy är ett kapacitetsutvecklingsprogram riktat till tjänstepersoner vid handelsministerier och andra handelspolitiska institutioner i utvalda afrikanska länder. Programmet syftar till att stärka den institutionella förmågan att analysera, utforma och genomföra handelspolitik som bidrar till hållbar ekonomisk utveckling och förbättrat företagsklimat. Målet är att stärka deltagarnas och deras organisationers kapacitet att använda handelspolitisk analys som underlag för beslutsfattande, samt att integrera dessa arbetssätt i ordinarie verksamhet. Genom att utveckla kompetens inom handelspolitisk konsekvensanalys och förändringsledning bidrar projektet till bättre avvägningar mellan olika samhällsintressen i handelspolitiska processer. Genomförandet har baserats på ett kombinerat arbetssätt med kompetensutveckling, erfarenhetsutbyte och nätverksbyggande. Programmet har även haft ett ömsesidigt lärandeperspektiv, där erfarenheter från deltagarna bidragit till att stärka Kommerskollegiums egen handelspolitiska kompetens och analyskapacitet. Programmet har genomförts av Kommerskollegium, i samverkan med relevanta partners, inklusive Trade Policy Center for Africa (TRAPCA) inom ramen för alumnaktiviteter. Det geografiska fokuset har varit Afrika, med deltagande från Zambia, Kenya, Somalia, Rwanda, Namibia och Moçambique, inom sektorn handelspolitik och handelsrelaterad institutionell kapacitetsutveckling. Det långsiktiga utvecklingsmålet är att bidra till hållbar ekonomisk utveckling genom stärkta handelspolitiska institutioner i samarbetsländerna. Genom varaktig kapacitetsförstärkning inom handelspolitisk analys och förändringsarbete skapas bättre förutsättningar för länderna att delta i internationell handel, genomföra välgrundade handelspolitiska reformer och integreras i regionala och globala marknader.

En extern resultatuppföljning visar att programmet varit effektivt i att stärka deltagarnas färdigheter i handelspolitisk analys och i att främja ett mer strukturerat tillvägagångssätt för beslutsfattande. Deltagarna använder i stor utsträckning verktyg för handelspolitisk konsekvensanalys, inklusive hållbarhetsbedömningar och intressentanalys, i sitt dagliga arbete. Många deltagare rapporterar ökat självförtroende i handelspolitiskt arbete och i handelsförhandlingar, särskilt i regionala sammanhang såsom det afrikanska kontinentala frihandelsavtalet (AfCFTA). Uppföljningen visar att möjligheterna att påverka handelspolitiska reformer varierar beroende på institutionella förutsättningar. Samtidigt finns exempel på institutionella resultat, bland annat att deltagare i Somalia bidragit till att ta fram en process för konsekvensbedömning inför handelspolitisk lagstiftning. En klar majoritet av deltagarna har tillämpat programmets metoder i sitt arbete och spridit kunskaperna vidare inom sina organisationer. Observationer från en alumnträff 2025 visar att flertalet alumner fortsatt behärskar och använder metoderna, vilket indikerar bestående kapacitetsutveckling. Erfarenheterna från uppföljningen har använts i utformningen av ett uppdaterat program för perioden 2026–2028. Between 2022 and 2024, a total of 61 participants completed the Trade Academy Trade Policy programme, of whom 26 were women. An external results review indicates that the programme has been effective in strengthening participants’ trade policy analysis skills and in promoting a more structured approach to decision-making. Participants widely apply trade policy impact assessment tools, including sustainability assessments and stakeholder analysis, in their day-to-day work. Many participants report increased confidence in trade policy work and trade negotiations, particularly in regional contexts such as the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). The review shows that opportunities to influence trade policy reforms vary depending on institutional conditions. At the same time, there are examples of institutional-level results, including participants in Somalia contributing to the development of a process for impact assessment prior to the adoption of trade-related legislation. A clear majority of participants have applied the programme’s methods in their work and shared the knowledge gained within their organisations. Observations from an alumni meeting in 2025 indicate that most alumni continue to use the methods, suggesting sustained capacity development. Findings from the follow-up informed the design of an updated programme for the period 2026–2028.

The programme focuses on the internal market, active participation in EU decision-making processes and international trade. In 2025, the programme targets Moldova and Ukraine, where EU accession is a strategic priority for economic development and political stability. The programme addresses capacity gaps among public authorities and relevant stakeholder organisations in formulating, coordinating and communicating national positions in the EU accession context. It focuses on strengthening inclusive consultation, inter-institutional coordination and evidence-based engagement related to trade and market integration. Through capacity development and peer learning, the programme supports more effective participation in EU-related policy processes and negotiations. The long-term development objective is to contribute to sustainable and inclusive economic growth by strengthening EU candidate countries’ institutional capacity to engage effectively in the EU internal market and trade policy framework. The programme supports durable integration into EU structures and long-term economic resilience beyond the programme period. Trade Academy EU Integration är ett program som syftar till att stärka EU-kandidatländers institutionella kapacitet att förvalta och dra nytta av ett framtida EU-medlemskap, med fokus på den inre marknaden, aktivt deltagande i EU:s beslutsprocesser och internationell handel. Under 2025 riktar sig programmet till Moldavien och Ukraina, där EU-anslutning är en strategisk prioritering för ekonomisk utveckling och politisk stabilitet. Programmet adresserar kapacitetsbrister hos offentliga myndigheter och relevanta intressenter när det gäller att formulera, samordna och kommunicera nationella ståndpunkter i EU-anslutningsprocessen. Tyngdpunkten ligger på inkluderande konsultation, stärkt institutionell samordning och kunskapsbaserad hantering av handels- och marknadsintegrationsfrågor. Genom kapacitetsutveckling och erfarenhetsutbyte bidrar programmet till mer effektivt deltagande i EU-relaterade policyprocesser och förhandlingar.

The programme focuses on the internal market, active participation in EU decision-making processes and international trade. In 2025, the programme targets Moldova and Ukraine, where EU accession is a strategic priority for economic development and political stability. The programme addresses capacity gaps among public authorities and relevant stakeholder organisations in formulating, coordinating and communicating national positions in the EU accession context. It focuses on strengthening inclusive consultation, inter-institutional coordination and evidence-based engagement related to trade and market integration. Through capacity development and peer learning, the programme supports more effective participation in EU-related policy processes and negotiations. The long-term development objective is to contribute to sustainable and inclusive economic growth by strengthening EU candidate countries’ institutional capacity to engage effectively in the EU internal market and trade policy framework. The programme supports durable integration into EU structures and long-term economic resilience beyond the programme period. Trade Academy EU Integration är ett program som syftar till att stärka EU-kandidatländers institutionella kapacitet att förvalta och dra nytta av ett framtida EU-medlemskap, med fokus på den inre marknaden, aktivt deltagande i EU:s beslutsprocesser och internationell handel. Under 2025 riktar sig programmet till Moldavien och Ukraina, där EU-anslutning är en strategisk prioritering för ekonomisk utveckling och politisk stabilitet. Programmet adresserar kapacitetsbrister hos offentliga myndigheter och relevanta intressenter när det gäller att formulera, samordna och kommunicera nationella ståndpunkter i EU-anslutningsprocessen. Tyngdpunkten ligger på inkluderande konsultation, stärkt institutionell samordning och kunskapsbaserad hantering av handels- och marknadsintegrationsfrågor. Genom kapacitetsutveckling och erfarenhetsutbyte bidrar programmet till mer effektivt deltagande i EU-relaterade policyprocesser och förhandlingar.

This limits the country’s ability to design evidence-based trade policy and to fully leverage opportunities arising from international trade agreements. Building on Kenya’s participation in the National Board of Trade Sweden’s Trade Academy Trade Policy programme, the project aims to strengthen Kenya’s analytical capacity in trade and value chain analysis. The project focuses on enabling Kenya’s inclusion in the OECD Trade in Value Added (TiVA) database, a key tool for analysing international value chains. Access to the database will allow Kenyan institutions to assess how the country’s exports are positioned within global and continental value chains, including under the AfCFTA framework, as well as Kenya’s dependence on foreign intermediate goods and services. This enhances the institutional basis for trade policy formulation and international trade negotiations. The project is implemented through cooperation between the National Board of Trade Sweden, the OECD and Statistics Sweden (SCB), with SCB providing a long-term adviser to the Kenyan national statistical office. The primary role of the National Board of Trade Sweden is to finance the OECD’s technical work to integrate Kenya into the TiVA database. The long-term development objective is to strengthen Kenya’s institutional capacity to conduct advanced trade policy analysis in support of strategic decision-making, international trade negotiations and the implementation of trade agreements. By improving value chain analysis, the project contributes to deeper market integration, more effective trade policy and sustainable economic development over time. Kenya har begränsad tillgång till avancerade verktyg för handelspolitisk och ekonomisk analys, särskilt vad gäller analys av globala och regionala värdekedjor. Detta begränsar möjligheterna att utforma evidensbaserad handelspolitik och att fullt ut tillvarata potentialen i internationella handelsavtal. Mot denna bakgrund bygger projektet vidare på Kenyas deltagande i Kommerskollegiums utbildningsprogram Trade Academy Trade Policy och syftar till att stärka landets analytiska kapacitet inom handel och värdekedjeanalys. Projektets inriktning är att möjliggöra Kenyas inkludering i OECD:s TiVA-databas (Trade in Value Added), ett centralt verktyg för analys av värdekedjor i internationell handel. Genom tillgång till databasen skapas förutsättningar för att analysera hur Kenyas export är integrerad i globala och kontinentala värdekedjor, inklusive inom ramen för AfCFTA, samt hur beroendet av utländska insatsvaror och tjänster ser ut. Detta stärker den institutionella grunden för handelspolitiskt beslutsfattande och internationella handelsförhandlingar. Projektet genomförs genom ett samarbete mellan Kommerskollegium, OECD och Statistiska centralbyrån (SCB), där SCB har en långtidsrådgivare placerad vid den kenyanska statistikmyndigheten. Kommerskollegiums huvudsakliga roll är att finansiera OECD:s tekniska arbete med att integrera Kenya i TiVA-databasen. Det långsiktiga utvecklingsmålet är att stärka Kenyas institutionella kapacitet att bedriva avancerad handelspolitisk analys som underlag för strategiska beslut, internationella handelsförhandlingar och genomförande av handelsavtal. Genom förbättrad analys av värdekedjor bidrar projektet till ökad marknadsintegration, mer effektiv handelspolitik och hållbar ekonomisk utveckling på lång sikt. •Kenya is included in the OECD TiVA database, expanding its geographical coverage. •Improved capacity of Kenyan authorities to analyse global and regional value chains. •Stronger evidence base for trade policy, industrial policy and prioritisation of sectors and trading partners. •Enhanced analytical foundation for international trade negotiations, including under AfCFTA and with the EU. •Contribution to long-term capacity development in trade policy analysis in Kenya. •Kenya inkluderas i OECD:s TiVA-databas, vilket utökar databasens geografiska täckning. •Förbättrade förutsättningar för kenyanska myndigheter att analysera globala och regionala värdekedjor. •Stärkt evidensbas för utformning av handelspolitik, industripolitik och prioriteringar av sektorer och handelspartners. •Förbättrat analytiskt underlag för internationella handelsförhandlingar, inklusive inom AfCFTA och i relationen till EU. •Bidrag till långsiktig kapacitetsutveckling inom handelspolitisk analys i Kenya.

It supports EU–Ukraine dialogue on trade policy, reform processes and market access, with a focus on trade-related regulatory issues, including technical barriers to trade and standardisation. The long-term development objective is to support Ukraine’s sustainable economic recovery and integration into the EU internal market through strengthened implementation of the DCFTA and enhanced institutional capacity in trade policy. Insatsen avser en svensk sekundering till EU-delegationen i Kiev inom handelsområdet. Den svarar mot Ukrainas behov av stöd i genomförandet av frihandelsavtalet med EU (DCFTA) och i landets gradvisa anpassning till EU:s handelsrelaterade regelverk. Genom att stärka EU-delegationens kapacitet att följa, analysera och rapportera om handelsrelaterade reformer bidrar insatsen till förbättrade förutsättningar för handel, ekonomisk integration och långsiktig ekonomisk utveckling i Ukraina. Insatsen stödjer dialogen mellan EU och Ukraina kring handelspolitik, reformarbete och marknadstillträde. Fokus ligger på handelsrelaterade regelverksfrågor, inklusive tekniska handelshinder och standardisering. Det långsiktiga utvecklingsmålet är att bidra till ekonomisk återhämtning och integration i EU:s inre marknad genom stärkt genomförande av DCFTA och ökad institutionell kapacitet inom handelspolitik. The activity is expected to contribute to: strengthened capacity of the EU Delegation to monitor, analyse and report on trade-related reforms in Ukraine, improved conditions for dialogue between the EU and Ukraine on trade policy and DCFTA implementation, enhanced coordination of EU trade-related support in Ukraine, improved conditions for Ukrainian enterprises, including small and medium-sized enterprises, to participate in trade with the EU. Insatsen förväntas bidra till: stärkt förmåga hos EU-delegationen att följa upp, analysera och rapportera om handelsrelaterade reformer i Ukraina, förbättrade förutsättningar för dialog mellan EU och Ukraina om handelspolitik och genomförandet av DCFTA, ökad samordning av EU:s handelsrelaterade stöd i Ukraina, bättre förutsättningar för ukrainska företag, inklusive små och medelstora företag, att delta i handel med EU.

The project responds to the economic challenges caused by Russia’s aggression, which has disrupted supply chains and increased production and transport costs. Despite Ukraine’s preferential access to the EU market through the DCFTA and temporary autonomous trade measures, many SMEs still struggle to meet EU standards and access new buyers. Through training, mentoring, market exposure, and business matchmaking, the project helps Ukrainian SMEs comply with Swedish and EU food regulations, obtain certifications, and adapt products to meet market and sustainability requirements. The long-term aim is to enable Ukrainian producers to enter and remain in the Swedish market through strengthened competitiveness and sustainable trade relations. The long-term objective is that Ukrainian SMEs strengthen their capacity to export to Sweden and other EU markets by achieving compliance, competitiveness, and market knowledge. In the long term, the project contributes to Ukraine’s economic recovery and integration into the European market through sustainable trade and job creation. The project is implemented by Open Trade Gate Sweden (National Board of Trade Sweden) in partnership with the Entrepreneurship and Export Promotion Office (EEPO) of Ukraine. The project follows a structured, three-phase approach: 1. Get to know your market – SMEs receive online and on-site training, market orientation in Sweden, and participate in trade fairs and B2B meetings. 2. Go to market – Companies receive individual mentoring to develop market entry strategies, adapt packaging and communication, and follow up on buyer leads. 3. Grow your business – SMEs are supported in sustaining and expanding exports through continued guidance and evaluation of business results. Each phase builds practical knowledge, connects SMEs with Swedish importers, and fosters long-term trade partnerships. Export to Sweden 2.0 – Ukraina är ett handelsutvecklingsprojekt som syftar till att stärka kapaciteten hos små och medelstora företag inom Ukrainas livsmedelssektor att exportera till Sverige och EU. Projektet svarar på de ekonomiska utmaningar som orsakats av Rysslands aggression, som har stört leveranskedjor och ökat produktions- och transportkostnader. Trots att Ukraina har tillgång till EU-marknaden på förmånliga villkor genom DCFTA och tillfälliga autonoma handelsåtgärder har många företag fortfarande svårt att uppfylla EU:s krav och nå nya köpare. Genom utbildning, mentorskap, marknadsexponering och affärsmatchning hjälper projektet ukrainska små och medelstora företag att följa svenska och EU:s livsmedelsregler, skaffa nödvändiga certifieringar och anpassa sina produkter till marknadens och hållbarhetsrelaterade krav. Projektet bidrar till att ukrainska producenter kan etablera sig och stanna kvar på den svenska marknaden genom stärkt konkurrenskraft och hållbara handelsrelationer. Det långsiktiga målet är att ukrainska företag stärker sin kapacitet att exportera till Sverige och andra EU-marknader genom ökad regelefterlevnad, konkurrenskraft och marknadskunskap. På längre sikt ska projektet bidra till Ukrainas ekonomiska återhämtning och integration i den europeiska marknaden genom hållbar handel och jobbskapande. Projektet genomförs av Open Trade Gate Sweden (Kommerskollegium) i partnerskap med Entrepreneurship and Export Promotion Office (EEPO) i Ukraina. Projektet följer en strukturerad metod i tre faser: 1.Get to know your market – Företagen får online- och platsbaserad utbildning, marknadsorientering i Sverige samt deltar i mässor och B2B-möten. 2.Go to market – Företagen får individuellt mentorskap för att utveckla marknadsstrategier, anpassa förpackningar och kommunikation samt följa upp kontakter med köpare. 3.Grow your business – Företagen får stöd för att bibehålla och expandera sin export genom fortsatt vägledning och uppföljning av affärsresultat. The project aims to: • Increase the export readiness of participating SMEs through improved compliance and certification. • Strengthen market access by supporting participation in trade fairs and B2B meetings. • Facilitate lasting trade relationships between Ukrainian exporters and Swedish buyers. • Contribute to inclusive economic growth and sustainable business development in Ukraine Projektet syftar till att: •öka exportberedskapen hos deltagande företag genom förbättrad regelefterlevnad och certifiering, •stärka marknadstillträdet genom deltagande i mässor och B2B-möten, •underlätta långsiktiga handelsrelationer mellan ukrainska exportörer och svenska köpare, •bidra till inkluderande ekonomisk tillväxt och hållbar företagsutveckling i Ukraina Sweden National Board of Trade National Board of Trade +46 8 690 48 00 registrator@kommerskollegium.se http://www.kommerskollegium.se/ SE-113 86 STOCKHOLM Ukraine Regional trade agreements (RTAs) Trade Policies & Regulations SE-0-SE-39-7506-1 Sweden Export to Sweden 2.0 – Ukraine is a trade development project that aims to strengthen the capacity of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Ukraine’s food sector to export to Sweden and the European Union.

The long-term aim is to enable Ukrainian producers to enter and remain in the Swedish market through strengthened competitiveness and sustainable trade relations. The long-term objective is that Ukrainian SMEs strengthen their capacity to export to Sweden and other EU markets by achieving compliance, competitiveness, and market knowledge. In the long term, the project contributes to Ukraine’s economic recovery and integration into the European market through sustainable trade and job creation. The project is implemented by Open Trade Gate Sweden (National Board of Trade Sweden) in partnership with the Entrepreneurship and Export Promotion Office (EEPO) of Ukraine. The project follows a structured, three-phase approach: 1. Get to know your market – SMEs receive online and on-site training, market orientation in Sweden, and participate in trade fairs and B2B meetings. 2. Go to market – Companies receive individual mentoring to develop market entry strategies, adapt packaging and communication, and follow up on buyer leads. 3. Grow your business – SMEs are supported in sustaining and expanding exports through continued guidance and evaluation of business results. Each phase builds practical knowledge, connects SMEs with Swedish importers, and fosters long-term trade partnerships. Export to Sweden 2.0 – Ukraina är ett handelsutvecklingsprojekt som syftar till att stärka kapaciteten hos små och medelstora företag inom Ukrainas livsmedelssektor att exportera till Sverige och EU. Projektet svarar på de ekonomiska utmaningar som orsakats av Rysslands aggression, som har stört leveranskedjor och ökat produktions- och transportkostnader. Trots att Ukraina har tillgång till EU-marknaden på förmånliga villkor genom DCFTA och tillfälliga autonoma handelsåtgärder har många företag fortfarande svårt att uppfylla EU:s krav och nå nya köpare. Genom utbildning, mentorskap, marknadsexponering och affärsmatchning hjälper projektet ukrainska små och medelstora företag att följa svenska och EU:s livsmedelsregler, skaffa nödvändiga certifieringar och anpassa sina produkter till marknadens och hållbarhetsrelaterade krav. Projektet bidrar till att ukrainska producenter kan etablera sig och stanna kvar på den svenska marknaden genom stärkt konkurrenskraft och hållbara handelsrelationer. Det långsiktiga målet är att ukrainska företag stärker sin kapacitet att exportera till Sverige och andra EU-marknader genom ökad regelefterlevnad, konkurrenskraft och marknadskunskap. På längre sikt ska projektet bidra till Ukrainas ekonomiska återhämtning och integration i den europeiska marknaden genom hållbar handel och jobbskapande. Projektet genomförs av Open Trade Gate Sweden (Kommerskollegium) i partnerskap med Entrepreneurship and Export Promotion Office (EEPO) i Ukraina. Projektet följer en strukturerad metod i tre faser: 1.Get to know your market – Företagen får online- och platsbaserad utbildning, marknadsorientering i Sverige samt deltar i mässor och B2B-möten. 2.Go to market – Företagen får individuellt mentorskap för att utveckla marknadsstrategier, anpassa förpackningar och kommunikation samt följa upp kontakter med köpare. 3.Grow your business – Företagen får stöd för att bibehålla och expandera sin export genom fortsatt vägledning och uppföljning av affärsresultat. The project aims to: • Increase the export readiness of participating SMEs through improved compliance and certification. • Strengthen market access by supporting participation in trade fairs and B2B meetings. • Facilitate lasting trade relationships between Ukrainian exporters and Swedish buyers. • Contribute to inclusive economic growth and sustainable business development in Ukraine Projektet syftar till att: •öka exportberedskapen hos deltagande företag genom förbättrad regelefterlevnad och certifiering, •stärka marknadstillträdet genom deltagande i mässor och B2B-möten, •underlätta långsiktiga handelsrelationer mellan ukrainska exportörer och svenska köpare, •bidra till inkluderande ekonomisk tillväxt och hållbar företagsutveckling i Ukraina Sweden Kommerskollegium National Board of Trade Kommerskollegium 8.3 - Främja utvecklingsinriktad politik som stöder produktiv verksamhet, skapande av anständiga arbetstillfällen, företagande, kreativitet och innovation samt uppmuntra att mikroföretag liksom små och medelstora företag växer och blir en del av den formella ekonomin, bland annat genom tillgång till finansiella tjänster. 8.3 - Promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities, decent job creation, entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation, and encourage the formalization and growth of micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises, including through access to financial services.

Through Open Trade Gate Sweden the National Board of Trade works in cooperation with local business support organisations to support companies in low- and middle-income countries to become export-ready and to access the Swedish and EU markets. Open Trade Gate Sweden contributes to economic development by enhancing companies´ export capacity and facilitating connections with Swedish and EU buyers. Increased exports can contribute to employment and higher tax revenues, thereby creating conditions for increased prosperity and improved living standards. This activity concerns a feasibility study that we carried out in Armenia in 2025. The purpose was to increase understanding of the food sector and the challenges faced by Armenian enterprises in relation to exports. The analysis of the food ecosystem and company capacities provides a basis for the development of a three-year project plan focused on strengthening export readiness and export diversification. The feasibility study also included increased understanding of the Swedish market and identification of barriers to export diversification beyond traditional destinations, such as the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). In this way, the study contributes to an improved evidence base for future trade-related development cooperation.Building on the findings of the feasibility study, a potential follow-up project from 2026 onwards is intended to focus on supporting Armenia’s export diversification through capacity development, enhanced competitiveness of food exporters, and increased exposure to the Swedish food sector. The longer-term ambition is to contribute to improved market access and sustainable economic development. The feasibility study was implemented in cooperation with the International Trade Centre (ITC) and the Swedish Embassy in Yerevan.

Ökad export kan bidra till sysselsättning och ökade skatteintäkter, vilket skapar förutsättningar för ökat välstånd och förbättrade levnadsvillkor. Insatsen avser en förstudie, som genomfördes i Armenien under 2025. Syftet var att öka kunskapen om livsmedelssektorn och de utmaningar som armeniska företag möter i relation till export. Analysen av livsmedelsekosystemet och företagens förutsättningar utgör ett underlag för framtagandet av en treårig projektplan med inriktning på att stärka exportberedskap och exportdiversifiering. Förstudien omfattade även ökad förståelse för den svenska marknaden samt identifiering av hinder för exportdiversifiering bortom traditionella marknader, såsom den euroasiatiska ekonomiska unionen (EAEU). Genom detta bidrar insatsen till ett förbättrat beslutsunderlag för framtida handelsrelaterade utvecklingsinsatser. Med utgångspunkt i förstudien avses ett eventuellt kommande projekt från 2026 och framåt fokusera på att stödja Armeniens exportdiversifiering genom kapacitetsutveckling, stärkt konkurrenskraft hos livsmedelsexportörer och ökad exponering mot den svenska livsmedelssektorn.

Parallellt stärks kapaciteten hos utvalda BSO:er i Moldavien för att möjliggöra fortsatt stöd till företag med inriktning mot den svenska marknaden även efter projektperioden. Projektet förväntas bidra till förbättrad exportberedskap och ökad marknadsförståelse hos deltagande företag, liksom till stärkt kapacitet hos utvalda BSO:er att stödja internationalisering och marknadsinträde. På medellång sikt bidrar insatsen till förbättrade förutsättningar för affärskontakter och tidiga former av marknadsengagemang. Det långsiktiga utvecklingsmålet är att bidra till hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt i Moldavien genom ett mer konkurrenskraftigt och internationellt integrerat IT-näringsliv. Genom stärkt exportkapacitet, förbättrad marknadsberedskap och institutionellt stöd bidrar insatsen till förbättrade förutsättningar för långsiktig marknadsintegration, ökad motståndskraft i privat sektor och ett närmare närmande till europeiska marknader. •Improved export readiness among participating Moldovan IT companies for the Swedish market •Enhanced understanding of Swedish buyer expectations, compliance requirements, and business practices •Sweden-specific value propositions and go-to-market approaches developed and applied by participating companies •Strengthened marketing and sales capabilities relevant to long sales cycles and trust-based markets •Expanded and more relevant business networks with Swedish buyers and partners •Strengthened capacity of selected Moldovan BSOs to advise and support companies targeting the Swedish market •Contribution to sustainable and inclusive growth through increased internationalisation of the Moldovan IT sector •Förbättrad exportberedskap hos deltagande moldaviska IT-företag för den svenska marknaden •Fördjupad förståelse för svenska köparförväntningar, regelverk och affärskultur •Utvecklade och tillämpade Sverigeanpassade värdeerbjudanden och go-to-market-strategier •Stärkta marknads- och säljkompetenser anpassade till långsiktiga och förtroendebaserade affärsprocesser •Etablerade och stärkta affärsnätverk med relevanta svenska köpare och partners •Förbättrad kapacitet hos utvalda moldaviska BSO:er att stödja företag med inriktning mot Sverige •Bidrag till hållbar och inkluderande ekonomisk utveckling genom ökad internationalisering av IT-sektorn Sweden Kommerskollegium National Board of Trade Kommerskollegium 8.3 - Främja utvecklingsinriktad politik som stöder produktiv verksamhet, skapande av anständiga arbetstillfällen, företagande, kreativitet och innovation samt uppmuntra att mikroföretag liksom små och medelstora företag växer och blir en del av den formella ekonomin, bland annat genom tillgång till finansiella tjänster. 8.3 - Promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities, decent job creation, entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation, and encourage the formalization and growth of micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises, including through access to financial services.

Sweden Psychological Defence Agency Psychological Defence Agency +46101837000 registrator@mpf.se www.mpf.se SE-831 90 Östersund, Sweden Moldova (the Republic of) Security system management and reform Conflict, Peace & Security The initiative resulted in the successful implementation of a training programme designed to equip designated representatives from several government agencies with the capacity to independently plan and conduct crisis preparedness exercises addressing hybrid threats. The training has strengthened the participants’ ability to contribute to future resilience-building efforts and exercise activities. In the final phase of the initiative, contact was established with NATO in Moldova, which expressed interest in engaging the trained personnel in its exercise activities. Several of the trained participants subsequently took part in NATO’s "Resolute Saviour" exercise. An important factor contributing to the successful cooperation between the European Union and NATO was the organisation-neutral design of the training programme. This approach enabled its integration into NATO’s framework. Resultatet från insatsen är en genomförd träning i syfte att rusta utsedda personer från flera olika myndigheter i att själva genomföra övningar i krisberedskap till skydd mot hybrida hot. Gruppen kan utifrån övningen delta i framtida resiliensbyggande arbete och övningar. I slutskedet av insatsen upprättades kontakt med Nato i Moldavien, som visat intresse för att använda de utbildade personerna i sina övningar, bland annat deltog flera utbildade vid NATO-övningen, ”Resolute Saviour”. En anledning till framgång i samverkan mellan EU och Nato var att utbildningen varit förmågehöjande på en organisationsneutral nivå och därför kunde implementeras även i Natos ramverk.
