SE-0-SE-13-1010807 Sweden The project aims to address migration challenges in Iraq by increasing awareness and access to services related to migration processes, referral mechanisms, and reintegration for outgoing, intending, and returning migrants in the Kurdistan region. This initiative also seeks to strengthen the capacities of the Government of Iraq and the Kurdistan regional government in migration management. The objectives are to: i) Facilitate timely, accurate, and comprehensive information flow on migration, including reintegration and referrals to the available services, to targeted audience in the Kurdistan region and beyond, through the Migrant Resource Centre (MRC) in Sulaymaniyah and in partnership with the Kurdistan Regional Government. ii) Increase capacity of the MOLSA in migration management, including return and reintegration. iii) Strengthening the Project Management (PM) and Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) capacities of Iraqi institutions working on migration management programmes. Projektet syftar till att adressera migration i Irak och utmaningar kopplade till den genom att öka medvetenheten och tillgången till tjänster inom olika migrationsprocesser, remissmekanismer och återintegrering både för personer som avser att lämna landet och återvändande migranter. Detta initiativ syftar också till att stärka den irakiska regeringens och Kurdistans regionala regerings kapacitet när det gäller migrationshantering. Målen är att: i) Underlätta för snabba, korrekta och omfattande informationsflöden om migration, inklusive återintegrering och hänvisningar till tillgängliga tjänster genom Migrant Resource Centre (MRC) i Sulaymaniyah och i samarbete med Kurdistan Regional Regering ii) Öka kapaciteten hos Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs när det gäller migrationshantering, inklusive återvändande och återintegrering iii) Stärka kapaciteten för projektledning (PM) och övervakning, utvärdering och lärande (MEL) hos irakiska institutioner som arbetar med program för migrationshantering. Strengthened capacity of MEL (Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning) for the Institutions of Iraq, whom works with return and reintegration.

The aim of the support is to contribute to strengthened conditions for voluntary return and sustainable reintegration through continued exchange of experiences within the forum on methods, challenges and lessons learned as well as identifying areas for collaboration. The opportunity for third countries to jointly discuss and formulate their own specific conditions and needs leads to strengthened ownership for countries of origin along with improved conditions to work actively with the issue, as well as greater opportunities for international actors to target their efforts correctly and thereby contribute to sustainable results over time.

More than a hundred armed groups remain active in the Eastern provinces, and the security situation has deteriorated significantly in recent years. Neighbouring countries have at times played both destabilising and stabilising roles. Weak state institutions and governance, as well as the negative consequences of climate change and environmental degradation contribute to low resilience to conflicts and crises. The humanitarian situation is acute, with millions of internally displaced persons. Young women and men make up a large part of the population but have limited opportunities to participate in political processes and influence their future. Gender inequality is present at all sectors of society, and the DRC is ranked as one of the world’s most dangerous countries for women to live in. Women are particularly exposed, when the security situation deteriorates, both through gender-based violence and increased risks of violence as a consequence of being forced to flee. At the same time, young people's access to education and livelihoods is decreasing, which increases the risk that some will be exploited or pressured to join the army or armed groups. The DRC plays a key role in global work against climate change. The country's vast rainforests serve as one of the world's largest carbon sinks, and the strategic minerals found in the DRC are crucial for technologies that are required for the green transition. At the same time, the population is already negatively affected by the effects of climate change. Changing rainfall patterns have led to both prolonged droughts and recurrent floods, which cause increased climate-related security risks and put pressure on the social, economic, ecological and political systems. Combined with weak state institutions, these problems may lead to escalation of already existing conflicts. The aim of FBA’s work in the DRC is to improve the conditions for peace and stabilisation at local, national and regional levels. The efforts focus on ensuring local ownership, integrating a climate security perspective in processes and strengthening the participation of young people and women in conflict prevention and management. The work is carried out in close collaboration with local actors and is adapted to identified needs. FBA works with confidence-building activities, capacity development and creating coordination mechanisms between key state and civil society actors, as well as acts between local, national and regional peace efforts. At the regional Great Lakes level, FBA works for stronger cooperation between states and organisations with the aim of disarming and repatriating foreign armed groups active in the Eastern DRC. The management of these groups is central, as national self-defence militias repeatedly state that their return is a condition for their own disarmament. The aim is to initiate a positive spiral in which the disarmament of all armed actors gradually contributes to increased stability and security in affected communities. Efter årtionden av väpnade konflikter och omfattande mänskligt lidande står Demokratiska republiken Kongo (DRK) fortfarande inför mycket stora utmaningar. I de östra provinserna är fler än hundra väpnade grupper alltjämt aktiva och säkerhetsläget har försämrats kraftigt de senaste åren. Grannländerna har tidvis spelat både destabiliserande och stabiliserande roller. En svag statsapparat, bristfällig samhällsstyrning samt klimatförändringarnas och miljöförstöringens negativa konsekvenser bidrar till låg motståndskraft mot konflikter och kriser. Den humanitära situationen är akut, med miljontals internflyktingar. Unga kvinnor och män utgör en stor del av befolkningen men har begränsade möjligheter att delta i politiska processer och påverka sin framtid. Könsojämlikhet genomsyrar alla samhällssektorer, och DRK rankas som ett av världens mest riskfyllda länder för kvinnor. När säkerhetsläget försämras drabbas kvinnor särskilt hårt, både genom ökad utsatthet för könsrelaterat våld och genom de konsekvenser som följer när lokalsamhällen tvingas på flykt. Samtidigt minskar ungas tillgång till utbildning och försörjning, vilket ökar risken att vissa utnyttjas eller pressas att ansluta sig till armén eller väpnade grupper som en överlevnadsstrategi. Demokratiska republiken Kongo spelar en nyckelroll i det globala klimatarbetet. Landets vidsträckta regnskogar fungerar som en av världens största kolsänkor, och de strategiska mineraler som finns i DRK är avgörande för den gröna omställningens teknologier. Samtidigt påverkas befolkningen redan negativt av klimatförändringarnas effekter. Förändrade regnmönster har lett till både långvarig torka och återkommande översvämningar, vilket skapar ökade klimatrelaterade säkerhetsrisker och ytterligare belastning på de sociala, ekonomiska, ekologiska och politiska systemen. I kombination med svaga statliga institutioner riskerar dessa påfrestningar att fördjupa redan existerande konflikter. FBA verkar i DRK för att förbättra förutsättningarna för freds- och stabiliseringsprocesser på lokal, nationell och regional nivå. Insatserna inriktas på att säkerställa lokal förankring, integrera ett klimatsäkerhetsperspektiv och stärka ungas samt kvinnors deltagande konfliktförebyggande och konflikthanterande processer. Arbetet genomförs i nära samverkan med aktörer på plats i DRK och anpassas efter identifierade behov. Myndigheten arbetar med förtroendeskapande verksamhet, kapacitetsutveckling, skapar starkare samordning mellan nyckelaktörer i stat och civilsamhälle samt fungerar som brygga mellan lokala, nationella och regionala fredsinsatser. På regional nivå, i Stora sjöområdet, verkar FBA för ett stärkt samarbete mellan berörda stater och organisationer med syfte att avväpna och repatriera utländska väpnade grupper som är aktiva i östra DRK. Hanteringen av dessa grupper är central, då nationella självförsvarsmiliser återkommande anger deras återvändande som ett villkor för sin egen avväpning. Målet är att initiera en positiv spiral där nedrustning av samtliga väpnade aktörer successivt bidrar till ökad stabilitet och trygghet i de berörda samhällena.

I tillägg till att FBA – tillsammans med Sida – bidrar till Sveriges bilaterala strategi för utvecklingssamarbete med Afghanistan 2021-2024 ingår de båda myndigheterna även i ett EU-finansierat projekt vid namn ”EU Afghanistan Peace Support Mechanism” (EU APSM). Projektet, som har genomförts sedan juni 2019 och nu är i en andra fas, syftar till att bidra till en mer inkluderande fredsprocess i landet. FBA:s insatser inom ramen för projektet består huvudsakligen i att ge tekniskt och tematiskt stöd, i form av rådgivning eller utbildningar, till aktörer på olika nivåer och är att betrakta som kompletterande till Sidas.

The economy is showing some recovery, but the country remains one of the poorest in the world, with widespread poverty and corruption, and weak institutions. It was decided in 2024 to establish courts for war crimes and economic crimes, with the aim of addressing past abuses and combatting corruption. However, many of the structural problems that underpinned the conflict remain, such as the concentration of power, the lack of a state presence outside Monrovia, and disputes related to land and resources. The lack of a national reconciliation process, combined with an unequal distribution of resources, unemployment, weak infrastructure and low levels of trust in the state, undermine social cohesion and peaceful development. The situation remains unstable, but the risk of a large-scale conflict is considered low. Issues related to the right to own land are particularly conflict-provoking. Despite new legislation from 2018–2019, there is uncertainty about the implementation of property rights in relation to customary law. However, the recent legislative amendments have for the first time recognised women’s right to own land. The state has limited capacity to ensure security and the human rights of its’ citizens. The formal legal system is perceived as inaccessible and corrupt, which is the reason why many turn to customary law systems and non-state actors for justice and protection, despite shortcomings in human rights and gender equality. FBA’s work in Liberia aims at strengthening the principles of the rule of law, democracy and sustainable peace. FBA focuses in particular on youth’s participation in peacebuilding and conflict management, support for security sector reform, and dialogue with a focus on the principles of the rule of law in the public administration. Through the Conflict Prevention Leadership Program, FBA has strengthened the role of young peace leaders in preventing and managing conflicts, promoted local dialogue processes and reconciliation, and contributed to reducing tensions in conflict-prone areas. FBA has also provided support to Liberia's local security council and is currently working with advice and support for the revision of the national security strategy. Together, these efforts constitute a key contribution to peacebuilding, social cohesion and trust-building between citizens and the state in a fragile context. Liberia har sedan inbördeskrigens slut 2003 gjort viktiga framsteg mot fred och demokrati, bland annat genom det första fredliga maktöverlämnandet 2017. Ekonomin visar viss återhämtning, men landet är fortsatt ett av världens fattigaste, med utbredd fattigdom, svaga institutioner och omfattande korruption. År 2024 beslutades att inrätta domstolar för krigs- och ekonomiska brott, i syfte att hantera tidigare övergrepp och bekämpa korruption. Dock kvarstår många av de strukturella problem som låg till grund för konflikt, såsom maktkoncentration, bristande statlig närvaro utanför Monrovia, samt land- och resursrelaterade tvister. Avsaknaden av en nationell försoningsprocess, i kombination med ojämlik resursfördelning, arbetslöshet, svag infrastruktur och lågt förtroende för staten, undergräver social sammanhållning och fredlig utveckling. Situationen förblir instabil, men risken för storskalig konflikt bedöms som låg. Markrättsfrågor är särskilt konfliktdrivande. Trots ny lagstiftning från 2018–2019 kvarstår osäkerhet kring äganderätt, särskilt i relation till stark sedvanerätt. Lagändringar har dock för första gången erkänt kvinnors rätt till mark. Staten har begränsad kapacitet att tillgodose medborgarnas säkerhet och rättigheter. Det formella rättssystemet upplevs som otillgängligt och korrumperat, varför många vänder sig till sedvanerättsliga system och icke-statliga aktörer för rättvisa och skydd, trots deras brister i mänskliga rättigheter och jämställdhet. FBA:s arbete i Liberia syftar till att stärka rättsstatens principer, demokrati och hållbar fred.

The violence, which is now increasingly characterised by local conflicts between armed groups, has devastating consequences for Colombia's development and population. The number of people living in the areas where armed groups operate has increased by 70 percent since 2021, and over 5 million people are estimated to be internally displaced as a result of the violence. The historic peace agreement signed between the government and the guerrilla group, the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC), in 2016 has contributed to important progress in areas such as transitional justice and the reintegration of former FARC combatants. However, major challenges remain for the full implementation of the agreement. These include challenges related to the distribution of land, gender equality, state presence and access to human security throughout the country. Within the framework of the Colombian government's policy “Paz Total”, several peace negotiations and legal dialogues are being conducted between the government and various armed groups. This includes negotiations with the largest remaining guerrilla group in Colombia, the Ejército de Liberación Nacional (ELN). In Colombia, FBA supports inclusive and sustainable peace processes as well as disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration of armed groups into the society. FBA also contributes to gender equality in accordance with the commitments in the 2016 peace agreement and national policies and frameworks. FBA also supports security sector reform with a particular focus on democratic governance and control of the security sector, which is required in order to build peaceful and inclusive societies in the long term. I Colombia har olika gerilla- och paramilitära grupper fört krig mot varandra och regeringen sedan 1960-talet. Våldet som idag präglas alltmer av lokala konflikter mellan väpnade grupper har förödande konsekvenser för Colombias utveckling och befolkning. Antalet människor som idag lever där väpnade grupper verkar har ökat med 70 procent sedan 2021 och över 5 miljoner människor bedöms vara internflyktingar som ett resultat av våldet. Det historiska fredsavtal som slöts mellan regeringen och gerillagruppen FARC 2016, har bidragit till viktiga framsteg inom bland annat övergångsrättvisa och återintegreringen av före detta FARC-kombattanter. Stora utmaningar kvarstår dock för avtalets fullständiga genomförande, bland annat relaterade till fördelning av land, jämställdhet samt statlig närvaro och tillgång till mänsklig säkerhet i hela landet. Inom ramen för regeringens fredspolitik “Paz Total” drivs ett tiotal fredsförhandlingar och juridiska dialoger med olika väpnade grupper i Colombia. Detta inkluderar förhandlingar med den nu största kvarvarande gerillan i Colombia, Ejército de Liberación Nacional. I Colombia arbetar FBA med stöd till inkluderande och hållbara fredsprocesser samt väpnade gruppers avväpning, demobilisering och återintegrering i samhället.

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 Yemen Civilian peace-building, conflict prevention and resolution Conflict, Peace & Security The protracted conflict has been ongoing since 2014 and has resulted in a very severe humanitarian situation in the country. 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 MCF 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.

MCF 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 (MCF) 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.

Key achievements included the transition of the ERP system to EU ownership, deployment of logistics functionalities across several missions, and support to the establishment of new missions in Moldova and Armenia. The assignment also advanced standardization efforts through the development of policies, handbooks, and technical specifications covering logistics, asset management, and fleet management. In addition, a concept for a common logistics hub was developed to improve responsiveness and operational support to missions. Furthermore, the secondment provided support to several complex operational challenges, including assistance to Ukraine-related activities, establishment of new missions, and planning for mission closure in Niger. At the same time, the work highlighted structural challenges related to governance, decision-making, and resource management that continue to affect overall implementation. Overall, the assignment strengthened HQ support functions and contributed to improved conditions for coordinated mission support within the EU's civilian CSDP framework. Insatsen vid EU:s civila högkvarter i Bryssel har bidragit till att stärka stödet till de civila krishanteringsinsatserna genom utveckling av logistiska processer, systemstöd och missionsetableringar. Särskilt har arbetet omfattat övergången av ERP-systemet som möjliggör översyn av tillgångar, införande av logistikfunktionalitet i flera missioner samt stöd till etableringen av nya missioner i Moldavien och Armenien. Insatsen har även bidragit till ökad standardisering genom framtagande av policyer, handböcker och tekniska specifikationer för logistik, tillgångshantering och fordonsförvaltning. En möjlig modell för en gemensam logistikhubb har utvecklats för att förbättra missionernas förmåga att hantera akuta och operativa behov. Vidare har insatsen gett stöd till flera komplexa operativa situationer, inklusive missionsuppbyggnad, stöd till Ukraina samt planering för avveckling av missionen i Niger. Arbetet har samtidigt identifierat strukturella utmaningar inom styrning, beslutsfattande och resursförsörjning som fortsatt påverkar den långsiktiga effekten.

The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MCF) seconded a security expert to the SPU to facilitate the OSCE's operations within the country. By the end of the seconded experts mission, a foundational security structure was established, including a security plan, contingency plans, and a standard operating procedure (SOP) for security, as well as security instructions tailored for the OSCE SPU. Additionally, priority measures for further enhancements were outlined as part of the expert's contributions. The seconded expert's initiatives to bolster security through the establishment of offices and accommodations were instrumental in enabling the OSCE to function in Ukraine. Furthermore, the expert conducted security assessments that supported the OSCE's mine action efforts and assistance to law enforcement agencies in Ukraine, despite the ongoing armed conflict. OSSE:s Extra-Budgetary (ExB) Support Programme in Ukraine (SPU) inleddes i november 2022, åtta månader efter stängningen av OSSE:s Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine 31 mars samma år med anledning av Rysslands fullskaliga invasion av Ukraina. MCF sekonderade en säkerhetsexpert till SPU för att möjliggöra för OSSE att verka i landet.

The regional office supports operations carried out in the region, covering a total of 17 country offices, as well as an 18th office in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. The expert held the position of Head of Unit Aid Management & Humanitarian Development Peace (HDP) Nexus, within the Governance and Peacebuilding team. However, the unit consisted solely of the expert. The assignment primarily revolved around increasing knowledge, shared understanding, and thus collective capacity concerning the triple nexus within the international community. The ambition was to create more opportunities for collaboration among donors and stakeholders by enhancing understanding of how humanitarian, development, and peace-promoting aid are interconnected and reinforce one another. To contribute to strengthened nexus expertise, the expert conducted technical reviews and contributed to global policies within the UN cluster system and the Global HDP Nexus policy. The expert also provided input to the Inter-Agency Standing Committee's task force, thereby strengthening ongoing global initiatives linked to the promotion of the nexus. The expert also carried out a regional digital mapping of ongoing activities at country offices related to the triple nexus. This aimed to increase visibility and understanding, lay the groundwork for collaboration, and promote momentum in the projects. Furthermore, the expert created and facilitated training sessions and workshops on the nexus at regional and global gatherings, such as during the OCHA Humanitarian Network Partnership Week and within the framework of Nexus Academy Training. The seconded expert was also involved in organizing a deep dive into the nexus for the benefit of ten of the region’s country offices and several external partners. The purpose was to enhance understanding of the nexus and deepen collaboration related to aid coordination and reconstruction across the region. Additionally, the seconded expert facilitated a regional workshop in Amman on the topic, with 120 participants from 15 UN agencies. During the year, the expert also supported several country offices in their work on strategies related to aid coordination, including Iraq, Lebanon, and Libya. This involved assisting in drafting strategies and coordinating with the country offices’ technical experts in areas such as data and information management. The expert also established a group with representatives from approximately ten country offices to share experiences and lessons learned from working with digital solutions and aid coordination. Den sekonderade experten har varit sekonderad till UNDP’s Regional Hub for the Arab States, i Amman. Det regionala kontoret stöttar verksamheten som bedrivs i regionen, omfattande totalt 17 landskontor samt ett 18:e kontor i de ockuperade Palestinska territorierna. Experten har haft positionen Head of Unit Aid Management & Humanitarian Development Peace (HDP) Nexus, tillhörande Governance and Peacebuilding team. Enheten har dock bestått endast av experten. Uppdraget har främst cirkulerat kring att öka kunskapen och samsynen och därmed en gemensam förmåga kring trippelnexus inom det internationella samfundet. Ambitionen har varit att genom ökad kunskap om hur humanitärt-, utvecklings- och fredsfrämjande bistånd hänger ihop och förstärker varandra, skapa fler möjligheter för samverkan kring detta bland givare och aktörer. I syfte att bidra till höjd kompetens avseende nexus, har experten bland annat gjort tekniska översyner och bidragit till globala policys inom ramen för FN:s klustersystem samt till Global HDP Nexus policy. Experten har även bidragit med underlag till Inter-Agency Standing Committes task force. På så vis har arbetet förstärkt pågående globala initiativ kopplade till främjandet av nexus. Experten utförde även en regional digital kartläggning av pågående aktiviteter på landskontoren som kan kopplas till trippelnexus. Detta i syfte att skapa ökad synlighet och förståelse samt lägga en grund för samverkan och främja momentum i projekten. Vidare har han skapat och faciliterat utbildningar och workshops i nexus vid regionala och globala sammankomster, exempelvis under OCHA Humanitarian Network Partnership Week samt inom ramen för Nexus Academy Training. Den sekonderade var även delaktig i att arrangera en djupdykning i nexus till förmån för tio av regionens landskontor samt ett antal externa partners. Syftet var att öka förståelsen för nexus och fördjupa samarbeten kopplat till biståndskoordinering och återuppbyggnad över regionen. Den sekonderade har vidare faciliterat en regional workshop i Amman på ämnet, med 120 deltagare från 15 FN organ. Under året har den experten även stöttat ett antal landskontor i deras arbete med strategier kring biståndskoordinering, bl.a. Irak, Libanon och Libyen. Detta har inkluderat att bistå i författandet av strategier och koordinera med landskontorens tekniska experter inom bl.a. data och informationshantering. Experten skapade även en grupp med representanter från ca tio landskontor, med syfte att dela erfarenheter och lärdomar av att arbeta med digitala lösningar och biståndskoordinering.

The support is implemented in partnership with EUAM and channelised towards the implementation of a digitalised case management system (SMERKA). Together with EUAM, MCF 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. MCF 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 MCF 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 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 (MCF) – 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, MCF has modernised the Prosecutor General’s Office’s data storage system and contributed to the development of Ukraine’s digital case‑management system, SMEREKA.MCF 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. Ryska överträdelser mot internationell humanitär rätt har ställt ökade krav på Ukraina att utreda och åtala krigsbrott. MCF 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 MCF moderniserat riksåklagarämbetets datalagringssystem och bidragit till utvecklingen av Ukrainas digitaliserade brottsärendehanteringssystem, SMEREKA. MCF 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.

The partner organisations in both Uganda and India were formed through previous projects, and the new project ”New Rainbows” connects and unites them in a new international network between both target countries and Sweden. Together we will form a mutual platform to share ideas, resources, skills and knowledge, strengthening their capacity to achieve fundamental human rights for LGBTQ people. By bringing LGBTQ communities in different countries together, their voices become louder, their actions stronger, and their shared resources multiplied. This project contributes to Goal 16 by working towards a more inclusive and tolerant society where LGBTQ people can live free from violence at both the individual and community level. It strives to influence opinion and act as a catalyst for changes in attitudes and discriminatory laws so that LGBTQ people will have fundamental freedoms and equal access to justice. För att HBTQ-personer ska kunna vara fria och delta fullt ut i samhället och för att uppnå en hållbar attitydförändring gentemot HBTQ-personer i såväl Uganda som Indien, krävs det nya arbetsmetoder. Partnerorganisationerna i både Uganda och Indien har bildats genom tidigare projekt och det nya projektet ”New Rainbows” knyter ihop och förenar dem i ett nytt internationell nätverk där både Uganda, Indien och Sverige ingår. En interaktiv plattform kommer att bildas för att dela idéer, resurser, erfarenheter och kunskap med syftet att stärka målgruppernas förmåga att arbeta för och uppnå grundläggande mänskliga rättigheter för HBTQ-personer. Genom samarbete mellan HBTQ-grupper i olika länder ökar möjligheterna för projektet att nå sina mål. Projektet bidrar till mål 16 genom att arbeta mot ett mer inkluderande och tolerant samhälle där HBTQ-personer kan leva fritt från våld både på en individ- och en samhällsnivå.

Financial support for organisations with capacity-enhancing training programmes, focusing on Agenda 2030. The training programmes are for public sector employees and elected representatives from more than 20 OECD/DAC countries. The purpose is to strengthen the capacity of professionals to contribute to innovation in the public sector and support the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development. More information https://si.se/en/swedish-institute-continues-to-support-international-training-programmes-focusing-on-innovation-and-sustainability-in-the-public-sector/ Finansiellt stöd för anordnande av kapacitetshöjande utbildningsprogram med fokus på Agenda 2030. 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. Programmet förväntas också ges en organisatorisk effekt. Sweden Swedish Institute Swedish Institute +46 8 453 78 00 si@si.se www.si.se Slottsbacken 10, Box 7434. 103 91 Stockholm Kenya Advanced technical and managerial training Post-Secondary Education The SIPSIP program has an annual open call for Swedih Universities can apply for projetct grants. 7-8 different sub-programme are granted and are carried out over 18 months. The sub-programmes target different selected countries (often regionally) and differ thematically. Geographically, the sub-programmes may overlap. The results presented here are the combined results across all completed sub-programmes, but reported by different countries. In 2023, the 7 sub-programmes that were granted funds in 2022 were completed. A total of 155 participants from the public sector in 22 OECD/DAC countries graduated, of which 56% 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 survey, difference between baseline measurement and final measurement: 29 percentage point increase from zero measurement to final measurement, weighted average across the seven different sub-programmes. This corresponds to an increase of 76% between zero measurement and final measurement Skills increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of skills within each theme. Measured by survey, difference between zero measurement and final measurement: 27 percentage point increase from zero measurement to final measurement, weighted average value for seven different sub-programmes. This corresponds to an increase of 80% between zero measurement and final measurement. The results in terms of increase and knowledge and skills are good, but scattered between the sub-programmes. An overall insight is that the programs that have foreign partners in the implementation are more successful and can show greater effects. The sub-programmes themselves do not have any direct contact with each other, and touch on the theme of "innovation" to different extents. In order to increase focus and give greater opportunities for a common impression, geography and thematics should be tightened up for future calls. SIPSIP-programmet utlyses årligen, och sedan beviljas 7-8 olika delprogram medel och 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.

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. Programmet förväntas också ges en organisatorisk effekt.

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.

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.

Sweden Swedish Institute Swedish Institute +46 8 453 78 00 si@si.se www.si.se Slottsbacken 10, Box 7434. 103 91 Stockholm Georgia Advanced technical and managerial training Post-Secondary Education The SIPSIP program has an annual open call for Swedih Universities can apply for projetct grants. 7-8 different sub-programme are granted and are carried out over 18 months. The sub-programmes target different selected countries (often regionally) and differ thematically. Geographically, the sub-programmes may overlap. The results presented here are the combined results across all completed sub-programmes, but reported by different countries. In 2023, the 7 sub-programmes that were granted funds in 2022 were completed. A total of 155 participants from the public sector in 22 OECD/DAC countries graduated, of which 56% 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 survey, difference between baseline measurement and final measurement: 29 percentage point increase from zero measurement to final measurement, weighted average across the seven different sub-programmes. This corresponds to an increase of 76% between zero measurement and final measurement Skills increase, proportion who answered 4-5 on a five-point scale in terms of skills within each theme. Measured by survey, difference between zero measurement and final measurement: 27 percentage point increase from zero measurement to final measurement, weighted average value for seven different sub-programmes. This corresponds to an increase of 80% between zero measurement and final measurement. The results in terms of increase and knowledge and skills are good, but scattered between the sub-programmes. An overall insight is that the programs that have foreign partners in the implementation are more successful and can show greater effects. The sub-programmes themselves do not have any direct contact with each other, and touch on the theme of "innovation" to different extents. In order to increase focus and give greater opportunities for a common impression, geography and thematics should be tightened up for future calls. SIPSIP-programmet utlyses årligen, och sedan beviljas 7-8 olika delprogram medel och 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 2023 slutfördes de 7 delprogram som beviljades medel 2022. Totalt diplomerades 155 deltagare från offentlig sektor i 22 OECD/DAC länder, varav 56% 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, skillnad mellan nollmätning och slutmätning: 29 procentenheters ökning från nollmätning till slutmätning, viktat medelvärde över de sju olika delprogrammen. Detta motsvarar en ökning på 76% mellan nollmätning och slutmätning Färdighetsökning, andel som svarat 4-5 på femgradig skala vad gäller färdigheter inom resp tema. Mätt genom enkät, skillnad mellan nollmätning och slutmätning:  27 procentenheters ökning från nollmätning till slutmätning, viktat medelvärde för sju olika delprogrammen. Detta motsvarar en ökning på 80% mellan nollmätning och slutmätning. Resultaten vad gäller ökning och kunskaper och färdigheter är goda, men spretiga delprogrammen emellan. En övergripande insikt är att de program som har utländska partners i genomförandet lyckas bättre och kan visa på större effekter. Delprogrammen i sig har inte någon direkt beröring med varandra, och berör tematiken ”innovation” i olika utsträckning. För att öka fokus och ge större möjligheter till ett gemensamt avtryck bör geografi och tematisk stramas upp inför kommande utlysningar.

Entrepreneurship and innovation are central to promoting jobs and new solutions that drive sustainable economic growth. Strengthened foundation, growth and impact of entrepreneurship and innovation therefore influence a country’s competitiveness and productivity. Impact Pioneers is implemented through strategies that all emphasize goals related to economic development, education, trade and green transition. The 2025 programme targeted innovation and entrepreneurship enablers who can strengthen foundation, growth and impact within climate tech. The programme is designed to improve the conditions for enablers and key actors in local entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems to succeed in their efforts to strengthen the foundation, growth and impact of new enterprises and solutions, which in turn contribute to job creation, trade and green transition. Through training, capacity‑building activities and a global network, the programme also creates conditions for local and global partnerships that help participants scale their impact and increase their positive societal contribution. Entreprenörskap och innovation är centralt för att främja arbetstillfällen och nya lösningar som driver hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt.

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. Genom programmet var målet att erbjuda deltagarna kunskap, inspiration och ett globalt nätverk som hjälper dem att utveckla sina organisationer och lokala ekosystem att bättre stödja grogrund, tillväxt och genomslag för entreprenörskap med inriktning på nya lösningar som förebygger eller mitigerar klimatrelaterade utmaningar. Deltagarna rekryterades genom en öppen utlysning med ca 1200 sökanden. Efter en screeningprocess gjordes ett slutligt urval av 64 deltagare från programländerna. Deltagande finansierades på två olika biståndsstrategier: Strategi för Innovation, Partnerskap och Kapacitetsutveckling 2024-2028 och Strategi för Sveriges regionala utvecklingssamarbete med Mellanöstern och Nordafrika 2024-2027.

Strengthened foundation, growth and impact of entrepreneurship and innovation therefore influence a country’s competitiveness and productivity. Impact Pioneers is implemented through strategies that all emphasize goals related to economic development, education, trade and green transition. The 2025 programme targeted innovation and entrepreneurship enablers who can strengthen foundation, growth and impact within climate tech. The programme is designed to improve the conditions for enablers and key actors in local entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems to succeed in their efforts to strengthen the foundation, growth and impact of new enterprises and solutions, which in turn contribute to job creation, trade and green transition. Through training, capacity‑building activities and a global network, the programme also creates conditions for local and global partnerships that help participants scale their impact and increase their positive societal contribution. Entreprenörskap och innovation är centralt för att främja arbetstillfällen och nya lösningar som driver hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt. Stärkt grogrund, tillväxt och genomslag för entreprenörskap och innovation påverkar således ett lands konkurrenskraft och produktivitet. Impact Pioneers genomförs inom tre olika svenska strategier varav två biståndsstrategier som alla betonar mål relaterade till ekonomisk utveckling, utbildning, handel och grön omställning i världen. Programmet 2025 riktade sig särskilt till främjare av entreprenörskap och innovation som kan bidra till att stärka grogrund, tillväxt och genomslag inom ’Climate tech’.

Även om det ännu är för tidigt att förvänta sig mer långtgående förändringar, gav många konkreta exempel, bland annat från Indien: “Thanks to the programme, I have successfully established a good relationship between Techarena and the Embassy of India in Sweden; I also managed to persuade the Embassy and Startup India to consider a delegation to Techarena 2026. I also initiated talks with another pioneer from India, and a Swedish entity is developing a joint manufacturing accelerator for the automotive industry. Lastly, I am applying for the Vinnova–India–Sweden innovation call together with MITC and Indian organisations.” 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.

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.

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.

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).

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 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).

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.

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.

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 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. 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 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.

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.

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.

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 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).

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.

It is implemented in the Western Balkans, Türkiye, Eastern Europe, Africa, and the MENA region. The purpose of the programme is to strengthen agents of change working for democracy, human rights, and sustainable development through knowledge exchange and capacity development. The programme contributes to building long-term and mutual relationships between actors in developing countries and their Swedish partners. Project selection takes place through annual open calls targeting civil society as well as the cultural and media sectors. In addition to civil society actors, public and private actors may also apply for funding. SI Creative Partnerships Programme (SI CPP) är ett projektstödsprogram för svenska aktörer och deras partners i programländerna. Det genomförs i västra Balkan, Turkiet, Östeuropa, Afrika och MENA-regionen. Programmets syfte är att genom kunskapsutbyte och kapacitetsutveckling stärka förändringsaktörer som verkar för demokrati, mänskliga rättigheter och hållbar utveckling. Programmet bidrar till att bygga långsiktiga och ömsesidiga relationer mellan aktörer i utvecklingsländer och deras svenska partners. Urvalet av projekt sker genom årliga, öppna utlysningar som riktar sig till civilsamhället samt kultur- och mediesektorn. Utöver civilsamhällesaktörer kan även offentliga och privata aktörer söka medel. SI CPP contributes to human rights, democracy, the rule of law, and gender equality, in line with the strategies for Sweden’s reform cooperation with the Western Balkans, Türkiye, and Eastern Europe. In Africa and the MENA region, the programme contributes to strengthened capacity and competence to promote innovative and effective methods for sustainable development, in accordance with the Strategy for Innovation, Partnerships, and Capacity Development. The projects respond to locally identified needs in relevant areas such as strengthening the human rights of minorities or LGBTQI persons, investigative journalism, safety for democracy and human rights activists, countering disinformation, promoting women’s political participation, and more. 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, 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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%.

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. Capacity building programme tied to SDG 8; Decent work and economic growth, with a focus on sustainable business and entrepreneurship. Immediate expected results: 1. Increased knowledge as a result of the programme. 2. New/improved tools to drive change in accordance with Programme objective. 3. Impact of the results in the participating organisations. Program Objectives, expected long-term results: 1. Increased knowledge within the participants' companies about social, ecological, and economic sustainability from a business perspective. 2.

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. Capacity building programme tied to SDG 8; Decent work and economic growth, with a focus on sustainable business and entrepreneurship. Immediate expected results: 1. Increased knowledge as a result of the programme. 2. New/improved tools to drive change in accordance with Programme objective. 3. Impact of the results in the participating organisations. Program Objectives, expected long-term results: 1. Increased knowledge within the participants' companies about social, ecological, and economic sustainability from a business perspective. 2. Enhanced collaboration, exchanges, and business between programme participants, as well as between Swedish companies and participants. 3. Strengthened capacity within the participants' companies to apply and implement methods for strategic business development in sustainability and green transition. 4. Strengthened capacity among individuals in the participants' companies to lead themselves and others through strategic change processes and manage complexity. 2025: Övergripande mål med SI Global Executive Programme är att främja en demokratisk, rättvis och hållbar utveckling genom att skapa förutsättningar för bättre levnadsvillkor för människor som lever i fattigdom och förtryck. Programmet genomförs inom Sveriges INPAKT-strategimål och ska bidra till ”Stärkt kapacitet och kompetens hos aktörer inom privat och offentlig sektor, akademi och inom civilsamhället i utvecklingsländer, att verka för innovativa och effektiva metoder för hållbar utveckling, inklusive genom synergier med handel och näringsliv.” Syftet med ledarskapsprogrammet är således att ge deltagarna ökade kunskaper om hållbarhetsfrågor och verktyg samt exponering mot goda, innovativa exempel för att driva förändring och förankra hållbarhetsarbetet i sina organisationer samt utöka deltagarnas nätverk. Programmet är därför utformat så att deltagarna; befattningshavare inom näringslivet med mandat att påverka och förändra i sina respektive företag, parallellt med inhämtande av teoretiska kunskaper och erfarenhetsutbyte med andra verksamma inom samma prioriterade sektorer, under programmets gång påbörjar implementering av konkreta förändringsinitiativ inom hållbarhet; ”Strategic Business Project”. Dessa initiativ och tillvägagångssättet med kontaktskapande med potentiella handels- och samarbetsaktörer syftar till att ytterligare förankra kunskaper och verktyg i deltagarnas företag och bygga relevanta relationer för att accelerera den hållbara utvecklingen och gröna omställningen i deltagarnas respektive organisationer, och på sikt, i programländerna. 2024: ÖVERGRIPANDE MÅL Främja en demokratisk, rättvis och hållbar utveckling genom att skapa förutsättningar för bättre levnadsvillkor för människor som lever i fattigdom och förtryck, kopplat till SDG 8; Anständiga arbetsvillkor och hållbar ekonomisk tillväxt.

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.

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. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

The scholarship is directed towards professionals with work and leadership experience, to strengthen their capacity and competence to contribute to the sustainable development of their home countries. The scholarship is available to applicants from 34 OECD/DAC countries (2026) and covers the study fields: entrepreneurship and innovation, governance, public health, and STEM sciences. Swedish Institute Scholarships for Global Professionals (SISGP) är ett fullt finansierat stipendieprogram (studieavgift och levnadskostnader) för magister- och masterstudier vid svenska universitet. 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.

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. 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.

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.

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. 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.

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.

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.

Värt att notera är att i återkopplingen från stipendiaterna som inte tagit examen så är det 18 som planerar att lämna in sina slutgiltiga uppgifter eller sin masteruppsats i december 2024. 24 meddelar att de planerar att slutföra sina studier under våren 2025. För att jämföra med 2023 så har siffran ökat från 73% till 84%, vilket ger en ökning på 11 % Resultat 2025: Svenska institutets stipendieprogram ska stärka kompetensen hos relevanta aktörer som genom utbildning kan bidra till en hållbar utveckling i utvecklingsländer. En grundförutsättning för detta är att stipendiaterna genomför och slutför kvalitativ utbildning på mastersnivå i Sverige. 87% av de stipendiater som väntades ta examen 2025 har slutfört sina studier. Årets uppföljningsstudier visar att tre år efter avslutade studier anser 95% av de svarande stipendiatalumnerna att studierna varit relevanta för karriären och att 96% har kunnat använda kunskaper och förmågor från studierna i sin karriär. 91% av stipendiatalumnerna arbetar i en roll som bidrar till hållbar utveckling. En långtidsuppföljning som SI gjort visar att 47% har återvänt hem - och har betydande positioner i sina hemländer. En alumn har exempelvis genom har genom sin position på Ministry of Water Supply, Irrigation and Energy under sex månader slutfört 15 dricksvattenprojekt på landsbygden vilket har varit till nytta för 2,200 hushåll. Kunskap som fåtts genom studier i Sverige har hjälp alumnen genomföra detta. Results 2024: Degree follow-up In total, 84% have completed their studies, which is the highest figure since 2021. It is worth noting that in the feedback from the scholarship holders who have not graduated, there are 18 who plan to submit their final assignments or their master's thesis now in December 2024. 24 announce that they plan to complete their studies in the spring of 2025. To compare with 2023, the figure has increased from 73% to 84%, which gives an increase of 11% Percentage of scholarship holders who state that they will return to their home country/stay in Sweden/another country after completing their degree. (1st year after studies) 22% stated that they plan to return home immediately after completing their studies. 68.5% stated that they plan to stay in Sweden 9.5% said they plan to go to a third country Percentage of scholarship holders who state that they will return to their home country/stay in Sweden/another country 2-5 years after completing their studies. 48% stated that they plan to return home 2-5 years after completing their studies. 39% stated that they plan to stay in Sweden 13% said they plan to go to a third country Proportion living in their home countries/regions 67% of respondents to the one-year follow-up live in their home country or in a country within the same region Proportion living in their home countries/regions 45.5% of the three-year follow-up live in their home country or in a country within the same region. Results 2025: The Swedish Institute scholarship programme should strengthen the capacity of relevant actors who can contribute to sustainable development in development countries, through education. A prerequisite for this is that selected scholarship holders are qualified to carry out and complete qualitative education on master’s level in Sweden. 87% of the scholarship holders expected to graduate in 2025 have completed their studies. This year’s follow-up studies show that three years after completed studies 95% of the scholarship alumni consider the studies to have been relevant for their carrier and that 96% have been able to use the knowledge and competences from their studies in their carrier. Further, 91% of the scholarship alumni are working in a role that contributes to sustainable development. A Tracer study carried out during 2025 shows that 47% have returned home and hold meaningful positions in their home countries. One alumnus, has through his leading position at Ministry of Water Supply, Irrigation and Energy in Nepal been able to carry out 15 rural drinking water supply projects benefitting more than 2,200 households – where the knowledge and skills gained in Sweden have helped in achieving these results.

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.

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.

Programmet genomförs i form av projektstöd där svenska aktörer samverkar med ukrainska partnerorganisationer. Preliminär analys visar att aktiviteten har börjat leverera resultat, trots att endast ett fåtal av beviljade projekt än så länge har kommit till slutrapporteringsfas och/eller avslut. De kvantitativa målsättningarna om antalet inkomna ansökningar respektive beviljade projektstöd har på prestationsnivå under de två hittills genomförda utlysningar uppvisat god måluppfyllnad. Sedan programstart har 110 projekt beviljats, varav 47 under 2025. Projekten täcker flera tematiska områden kopplade till strategimålen och EU-förhandlingskapitel. Under 2025 har 14 projektförberedande projekt avslutats. 88% av de svarande bedömt att på förhand uppställda projektmål har uppfyllts i antingen stor eller mycket stor utsträckning. 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. Tillsammans bidrar projekten till demokratisk styrning, ekonomisk återhämtning och inkluderande sysselsättning – centralt för Ukrainas EU-integration och strategimålen om inkluderande ekonomisk utveckling samt demokrati, mänskliga rättigheter och jämställdhet. The SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme responds to Ukraine’s need for international support for reconstruction, reform efforts, and the EU integration process. 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.

SI operates within two overarching strategic goals (Goal. 3): Inclusive economic development, entrepreneurship and trade and (Goal 5): Human rights, democracy, rule of law and equality. SI's main target group is actors of change, which are defined as actors who have the long-term conditions to contribute to democratic and economic development in Ukraine. Both individuals and organizations can be agents of change. A major added value of working through project financing and open calls is that a breadth of the Swedish resource base can be mobilized and engaged. In this way, Swedish competence and experience can contribute to the development of Ukraine. The training program grant type is aimed at actors in Sweden and their cooperation partners in Ukraine (e.g. authorities, business actors, trade associations, academia, cultural industries and civil society in Sweden). The target groups for the program are in Ukraine. Training programs are expected to strengthen participating individuals as well as the organizations within which they operate. Administrativa kostnader för SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme: Utbildningsprogram Programmet SI Ukraine Cooperation Programme finansierar och möjliggör aktörssamverkan i projektform till stöd för Ukraina. Detta sker inom ramen för regeringens strategi för Sveriges uppbyggnads- och reformsamarbete med Ukraina 2023–2027. SI verkar inom två övergripande strategimål (mål 3): Inkluderande ekonomisk utveckling, företagande och handel samt (mål 5): Mänskliga rättigheter, demokrati, rättsstatens principer samt jämställdhet. SI:s huvudmålgrupp är förändringsaktörer, som definieras som aktörer som långsiktigt har förutsättningar att bidra till en demokratisk och ekonomisk utveckling i Ukraina. Såväl individer som organisationer kan vara förändringsaktörer. Ett stort mervärde av att jobba 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. Bidragstypen utbildningsprogram riktas till aktörer i Sverige och deras samarbetspartners i Ukraina (t.ex. myndigheter, näringslivsaktörer, branschorganisationer, akademi, kulturella branscher och civilsamhälle i Sverige). Målgrupperna för programmet befinner sig i Ukraina. Utbildningsprogram förväntas stärka såväl deltagande individer såväl som de organisationer som dessa verkar inom. OVERALL OBJECTIVES: Capacity-building funding program through the format of call for proposals of project support within operational objective 3.5 "Strong capacity to drive reconstruction and reform processes in Ukraine" and the intervention area "Support to actors to drive economic and democratic development". Expected results of the grant form: Training programs Immediate Expected Results: Projects that are granted support are expected to contribute to 1) strengthened capacity of organizations and new expanded partnerships/networks, 2) increased competence, incl. widened contact networks and new knowledge for individuals in line with the program's orientation and selected sub-goals. Program goals, expected long-term results: The goal is to strengthen the participants' skills to be able to work for reforms and development in economic and democratic development, which in turn contributes to Ukraine's opportunities for EU integration. ÖVERGRIPANDE MÅL: Kapacitetsstärkande finansieringsprogram genom utlysningsformat av projektstöd inom verksamhetsmål 3.5 ”Stärkt kapacitet att driva uppbyggnads och reformprocesser i Ukraina” och insatsområdet ”Stöd till aktörer att driva ekonomisk och demokratisk utveckling”. Förväntade resultat av bidragsformen Utbildningsprogram Omedelbara förväntade resultat: Projekt som beviljas stöd förväntas bidra till 1)stärkt kapacitet hos organisationer och nya breddade partnerskap/nätverk, 2)ökad kompetens, inkl. breddade kontaktnät och ny kunskap för individer i linje med programmets inriktning och valda delmål. Programmål, förväntade långsiktiga resultat: Målet är att stärka deltagarnas kompetens att kunna verka för reformer och utveckling inom ekonomisk och demokratisk utveckling som i sin tur bidrar till Ukrainas möjligheter till EU-integration.

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 SDG17. 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 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. Administrativa kostnader för Besöksprogram Woodlife Business 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. 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.

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. 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”.

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 SDG17. 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 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.

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.

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.

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 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. 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.

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”.

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 Turkey 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-TÜRKIYE-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.

During 2017 in total eleven sites all over the country have been inspected, a significant number of radioactive sources collected, characterized and transported to the National Radioactive Waste Management Company, Special Facilities 5101, 5102 for classification and storage. The methodology elaborated by the James Martin Center for Non proliferation Studies to use media tools to locate and track radiological sources was widely applied in this work. This project significantly improves the securing of radiological materials to avoid risks for public safety and risks for using these materials for malicious purposes.

A National Strategy for Radioactive Waste Management and an Action Plan for 2017-2026 was elaborated and agreed with the Government of Moldova. One important goal of SSM’s support project is to increase the capacity of NARNRA and the Radioactive Waste Management Company`s Special Facilities 5101 and 5102 regarding infrastructure development in radioactive waste management, waste handling and treatment. As part of this project the Radioactive Waste Management Company has developed a site descriptive model for the near-surface Radon-type disposal facility and its surroundings that will serve as a basis for developing a radiological safety assessment. The site descriptive model will comprise a compilation and interpretation of existing geoscientific and meteorological data, waste properties and inventory of the disposal facility as well as data from new geoscientific and radiological measurements. The radiological safety assessment of the disposal facility will continue in 2018. The assessment will address potential future radiological consequences of the disposal facility, i.e. the consequences of migration of various radionuclides for staff, population and the environment, for the case where the disposal facility will remain as before (the zero Alternative scenario). The safety assessment will also provide a basis for developing an on-site and off-site monitoring program and support the planning of possible future decommissioning of the disposal facility. SSM has also started a project on development of the legal and regulatory framework related to radioactive waste management by providing expert advice to NARNRA, review regulatory documents and facilitate national meetings and workshops related to issues of radioactive waste management in Moldova.

Within the framework of this support the Nuclear Security Support Centre (NSSC) at the Technical University of Moldova was opened in 2014. In 2017 SSM continued its support to the improvement of NSSC teaching and technical training base. The NSSC training laboratory was supplemented with radiation detection and measuring equipment. NSSCE experts modified curriculum on nuclear safety, and radiation protection, introducing a new component on nuclear safety-safeguards-nonproliferation interference. This new educational component was included and tested in the national training courses at NSSC for relevant staff of medical institutions of Moldova.

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. The main objective of this project is to investigate the use of simple analytical methods even in the high frequency region with a new model. The new model will be validated against FEM calculations and measurements.

The idea is to investigate lattice mismatched multilayer quantum structures for intersubband transitions with minimum defect concentration. This is made by balancing the strain in mismatched layers. Such nanostructures are of great interest for optoelectronic applications exemplified by quantum cascade lasers. The AlN/GaN heterostructure is used today but usually without explicit knowledge about the internal strain in the individual layers and the effect of strain on energy levels. A strain balanced heterostructure, AlInN/GaInN on GaN, is expected to be of higher structural quality, and thus optical and electrical, than for example a heterostructure of AlN/GaN grown on GaN. Main part is to study the strain originating in lattice mismatched layers and to calculate energy levels by self consistence solution of Schrödinger and Poisson equations. This new semiconductor system because it is little investigated and it has the potential to offer the largest conduction band edge difference of any III-V compound. The theoretical part and optical study will be made by the Moroccan team. Epitaxial MBE growth and other experimental studies will be carried out by the Swedish team. The information will be simultaneously exchanged to have as much as possible of results that can improve the heterostructure knowledge. Optoelektroniska komponenter som är baserade på så kallade nitrider, speciellt galliumnitrid (GaN) och indium-galliumnitrid (InGaN), är särskilt lämpade för optoelektronik. Grupp III-V nitrider är den materialgrupp som består av föreningar mellan de metaller som finns i grupp 3 (B, Ga, Al, In, Tl) i det periodiska systemet och kväve - N (grupp 5 i det periodiska systemet). Nitriderna är piezoelektriska vilket betyder att de kan generera en elektrisk spänning om de utsätts för mekaniska spänningar. Speciellt för nitrider är att dessa innehar elektriska fält som alltid finns närvarande i materialet.

Vår forskning är mer grundläggande eftersom målet är att utnyttja vissa materialegenskaper för att skapa optoelektroniska komponenter som idag ännu inte finns men som skulle bli av utomordentlig betydelse för optiska kommunikationsnät.

The idea is to investigate lattice mismatched multilayer quantum structures for intersubband transitions with minimum defect concentration. This is made by balancing the strain in mismatched layers. Such nanostructures are of great interest for optoelectronic applications exemplified by quantum cascade lasers. The AlN/GaN heterostructure is used today but usually without explicit knowledge about the internal strain in the individual layers and the effect of strain on energy levels. A strain balanced heterostructure, AlInN/GaInN on GaN, is expected to be of higher structural quality, and thus optical and electrical, than for example a heterostructure of AlN/GaN grown on GaN. Main part is to study the strain originating in lattice mismatched layers and to calculate energy levels by self consistence solution of Schrödinger and Poisson equations. This new semiconductor system because it is little investigated and it has the potential to offer the largest conduction band edge difference of any III-V compound. The theoretical part and optical study will be made by the Moroccan team. Epitaxial MBE growth and other experimental studies will be carried out by the Swedish team. The information will be simultaneously exchanged to have as much as possible of results that can improve the heterostructure knowledge. Optoelektroniska komponenter som är baserade på så kallade nitrider, speciellt galliumnitrid (GaN) och indium-galliumnitrid (InGaN), är särskilt lämpade för optoelektronik. Grupp III-V nitrider är den materialgrupp som består av föreningar mellan de metaller som finns i grupp 3 (B, Ga, Al, In, Tl) i det periodiska systemet och kväve - N (grupp 5 i det periodiska systemet). Nitriderna är piezoelektriska vilket betyder att de kan generera en elektrisk spänning om de utsätts för mekaniska spänningar. Speciellt för nitrider är att dessa innehar elektriska fält som alltid finns närvarande i materialet. Alltsedan demonstrationerna av de första användbara lysdioderna och laserdioderna i mitten av 90-talet har de stått i fokus för intensiva forskningsinsatser där syftet primärt har varit att förbättra prestanda för existerande blå lysdioder och laserdioder.

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.

The epidemic of type 2 diabetes and coronary heart diseases in South Asia is nested into societies where woman and child malnutrition still is prevalent. There is a need to move on to trials that evaluate short- and long-term effects of enhanced maternal and foetal nutrition. In the MINIMat prenatal nutrition trial in Bangladesh (4436 pregnant women, 3625 live births) we have shown 66% reduction of under-five mortality by an early timing of prenatal food supplementation if combined with multiple micronutrients. An early initiation (vs. usual timing) of prenatal food supplementation resulted in less stunting 0-5 yrs and a more favourable lipid profile at 5 yrs, while prenatal multiple micronutrients (vs. iron-folate) was linked to more stunting, lower IGF1 and insulin levels. In a follow-up at 10 years (year 2012-14, approximately 2325 children remaining in the study area) we propose assessment of risk indicators of metabolic syndrome (biomarkers, blood pressure, anthropometry, body composition) and micronutrient status that could allow for further analysis of favourable and unfavourable effects by the prenatal nutrition interventions, tracking and clustering of metabolic risk indicators up to pre-puberty, and an analysis up to that point of the public health impact of these combined nutrition interventions.

Är det möjligt att på ett gynnsamt sätt påverka hälsan också på lång sikt genom en förbättrad nutrition under graviditeten? MINIMat (Maternal and Infant Nutrition Interventions in Matlab) är en randomiserad interventionsstudie i ett landsbygdsområde i Bangladesh där 4436 gravida kvinnor slumpmässigt inbjöds till en tidig eller en senare (standardprogram) start av daglig kostsupplementering (600 kcal) och dessutom randomiserades till tre alternativa supplementeringar med mikronäringsämnen, inklusive standardprogrammet med järn och folsyra samt ett supplement med 15 mikronäringsämnen inkl. järn och folsyra. Vi har visat att dödligheten hos de 3625 levande födda barnen sänktes med 66% av en tidig initiering av kostsupplementeringen om den kombinerades med supplementering med multipla mikronäringsämnen. En tidig start av kostsupplementeringen resulterade också i en lägre frekvens av kortvuxenhet upp till 5 år och ett mer gynnsamt blodfettsmönster vid 5 år. Supplementeringen med multipla mikronäringsämnen var däremot förbunden med högre frekvens av kortvuxenhet och en korresponderande biomarkör, IGF1, som var lägre liksom insulinnivåerna. Vi planerar nu en uppföljning vid 10 års ålder (inträffar 2012-14) av de 2325 barn som beräknas bo kvar i området, där vi föreslår mätning av riskindikatorer för metabolt syndrom (biomarkörer, blodtryck, antropometri, kroppssammanstättning) och bestämning av mikronäringsämnen i blodprov.

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). Projektets betydelse: Vinsten med det planerade 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.

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). Projektets betydelse: Vinsten med det planerade 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.

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.

The major variant antigen, PfEMP1, is expressed at the erythrocyte surface where it acts as a virulence adhesion molecule bringing about severe malaria through accumulation of infected and uninfected erythrocytes in the micro-vasculature. We hypothesize that subgroups of cross-reactive PfEMP1 sequences are recognized by the immune-system and that certain antibodies are key in the protection against severe malaria. In this proposal we suggest to identify specific structures in PfEMP1 that induce broad and potent antibodies inhibiting sequestration in severe malaria. In our approach to achieve this ambitious goal, we will develop new methods for the identification of surface exposed epitopes, cross-reactivities between epitopes and receptor-binding structures in PfEMP1. This will be accomplished in five parallel discovery programs and in one for validation including isolation of I) antibodies to PfEMP1, II) cross-reactive IgG on random- and specific peptide libraries, III) human memory B cells/ antibodies, IV) fresh isolates from Uganda and V) creation of a super cross-reactive epitope. Candidate structures will be validated using state-of-the-art methods to investigate the specificity, quality and quantity of immunity to PfEMP1.

(Ii) Chiranjeevi Yojana (CY) i Gujarat i västra Indien: ett fast belopp till privata sjukhus, mot utgifter för varje 100 förlossningar som genomförs på fattiga mödrar. (Iii) Thayi Bhagya Program (TBP) i Karnataka i södra Indien: en villkorlig kontant överföring till fattiga mödrar vid förlossning på privata sjukhus. Alla betalningar görs av staten. Även om båda programmen är baserade på liknande begrepp, det vill säga ekonomiska incitament för tillhandahållande och utnyttjande av mödrahälsovård, och deltagande av den privata sektorn finns det stora skillnader i de socioekonomiska sammanhangen där varje program verkar. Detta inkluderar finansieringsmekanismer, modeller av leverantörsbetalningar och incitament, mängden av ekonomiskt bistånd, nivåer av den privata sektorns deltagande, vilka alla kommer att ha betydelse för önskade resultat av mödrahälsovård.

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.

Transmission of HCAIs from patients, visitors and staff may lead to outbreaks and spread to the community. Treatment of HCAI is complicated due to high prevalence of antimicrobial resistant pathogen and health-care facilities can act as amplifiers of the outbreaks. Previous studies in Ethiopia indicated up to 59% of patients attending the surgical ward at Tikur Anbessa University Hospital (TAH) acquired HCAI. Antimicrobial resistance and HCAIs is a major problem in Ethiopia. The present study aims to perform the first controlled intervention testing in the country through capacity building & knowledge transfer for prevention of HCAIs and antimicrobial resistance. A three-phase prospective interventional study will be conducted at TAH, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. First baseline survey will be done to identify prevalence, severity, etiology, spread pattern, risk factors for HCAIs, antibiotic use &, resistance, knowledge and attitudes of healthcare staff. 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 provide awareness, competence, quality control strategy and evidence based recommendations to establish better guidance for early detection of HCAIs of outbreaks and preparedness to handle threats of epidemics Vårdrelaterade infektioner (nosokomiala infektioner eller 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.

VRI är ett av de viktigaste hoten mot patientsäkerheten konstaterades i rapporten *Patientsäkerhet och patientsäkerhetsarbete*. 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.

Kvalitativa metoder kommer att utnyttjas för att utvärdera kunskap och attityder rörande VRI hos vårdpersonal.

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. Fritt HbF är förmodligen en viktig utlösande faktor till PE, en länk mellan steg ett och två.

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.

Midlevel provider?s involvement in abortion care increases women?s access to safe abortion and reduce maternal mortality. A simplified procedure of medical abortion has been suggested as medically safe internationally. India has been slow in implementing medical abortion and it is suggested that a simplified procedure would increase acceptability among both providers and women. However, so far there are no studies available on the safety of a simplified procedure in medical abortion or the involvement of midlevel providers in India. Women?s experiences of unwanted pregnancy and abortion is also little explored in the Indian context. The aim with this project is to study the safety, efficacy and effectiveness of a simplified procedure of medical abortion in India provided to women by midlevel providers or physicians. Also to describe women?s experiences of unwanted pregnancy, contraceptive use and experiences of the treatment. The design of the study is a four-armed randomised control trial combined with qualitative individual interviews. The main outcome measure is successful completion of abortion.

Bakgrund: FNs Millenniummål 5 är att sänka mödradödligheten med 75% från 1990 till 2015. En stor del av mödradödligheten, ca 70 000- 100 000 fall/år orsakas av komplikationer till illegala eller osäkra aborter vilket gör abortrelaterade död till en av de vanligaste dödsorsakerna bland kvinnor i fertil ålder. Indien står ensamt för ca 20% av världens mödradödlighet och man har uppskattat att 17% av dödsfallen orsakas av osäkra aborter i Indien. Trots att abort är lagligt sedan 1971 och relativt billigt, är kunskapen låg och abortvården ojämt fördelat. Uppskattningsvis utförs ca 5.5 millioner osäkra aborter årligen i Indien och endast 15% av primära hälsocenter har tillgång till utbildade vårdgivare. För att minska dödlighet och sjuklighet förknippad med oönskade graviditeter finns rekommendationer att utbilda annan sjukvårdspersonal än läkare, t.ex barnmorskor och sjuksköterskor, som också kallas Mid Level Providers (MLP) i att tillhandahålla abortvård. Då MLP globalt är fler än läkarna och finns närmare kvinnorna, framför allt på landsbygden, tänker man sig att det ökar det tillgängligheten och kvaliteten på abortvården. Tidigare internationella studier visar dessutom att MLP kan utföra säker medicinsk abort vid tidig graviditet. Internationellt används kombinationen mifepriston och misoprostol (abortpiller) vid medicinsk abort vilket har i studier visat sig vara en billig, skonsam och effektiv metod. Vidare har det även visats att man kan, med god medicinsk säkerhet, genomföra en förenklad medicinsk abort med färre besök på abortkliniken. Att involvera MLP vid medicinsk abort samt införa en förenklad handläggning av medicinsk abort skulle öka kvinnors tillgänglighet till säker abort i Indien.

Post-harvest losses are attributed to poor management in the logistics performances in the whole supply chain. Effective, efficient and innovative logistics which includes technologies for suppressing spoilage and inactivation of pathogens, food processing, packaging, storage and distribution are the necessary and important handling activities in the food production and marketing chain at all levels is required to reduce losses in the chain. Therefore the overall goal of this proposal is to reduce post-harvest losses of fruits and vegetables in Ethiopia with the aim of targeting increased food security in Africa using the supply chain management approach. The project is intended to identify where the potential losses occur in the supply and marketing chain, and best technological practices and potential intervention. The project links with the newly established, Ethiopian Logistics Excellent Center, EthioLog, where the two applicants are the major prime mover. The current proposal is inline with the activity plans of EthioLog. Idag, mer än 1,1 miljarder människor lever på mindre än en dollar per dag och cirka 430 miljoner i Sydasien, 325 miljoner i Afrika söder om Sahara, 260 miljoner i Östasien och Stillahavsområdet, och 55 miljoner i Latinamerika. Höga livsmedelspriser på den lokala livsmedelsmarknaden, men även för internationell handel, har ökat antalet undernärda människor från 923 miljoner under 2007 till 1020000000 2009. Produktion och leverans av tillräckligt hög kvalitet och säkra livsmedel är de aktuella utmaningarna för att föda den ständigt växande befolkningen, särskilt i utvecklingsländerna. Utmaningen är inte bara att producera tillräckligt med mat, men också se till att maten är äntligen fram, kommer att skördas, lagras, bearbetas och distribueras till återförsäljare och konsumenter på ett sätt som minimerar svinn från gården till mat tallrik. Tyvärr, både kvantitativa och kvalitativa mat förluster uppstår signifikant (ibland upp till 45% i händelse av trädgårdsodling och 25% i fall av spannmål, enligt FAO) i alla stadier i den efter skörd system från skörd, genom hantering, lagring, beredning och saluföring till slutlig leverans till konsumenten. I Etiopien efter skörd förlust som uppskattas till mellan 15% till 70% är i huvudsak hänföras till dålig styrning och kontroll inklusive emballage, förädlingsvärde hantering och förädling och transport. Därför, förbättra livsmedelssäkerheten kräver en övergripande strategi för efter skörd forskning var nya strategier, teknik och hjälpmedel kommer att utvecklas för att säkerställa att högre värde efter skörd fram kan hitta det sätt att den högre värderade marknader för ökad livsmedelssäkerhet, särskilt i låg-och medelinkomstländer. Det övergripande målet med detta förslag är att minska förlusterna efter skörd av frukt och grönsaker i Etiopien i syfte att rikta ökad livsmedelssäkerhet i Afrika med hjälp av utbudet synsätt chain management. Projektet syftar till att identifiera var de potentiella förlusterna uppträder i tillgångs-och försäljningskedjan, och bästa tekniska metoder och eventuella ingrepp. Utbudet värdekedjan styrmetod är den strategiska metoden för detta projekt.

Post-harvest losses are attributed to poor management in the logistics performances in the whole supply chain. Effective, efficient and innovative logistics which includes technologies for suppressing spoilage and inactivation of pathogens, food processing, packaging, storage and distribution are the necessary and important handling activities in the food production and marketing chain at all levels is required to reduce losses in the chain. Therefore the overall goal of this proposal is to reduce post-harvest losses of fruits and vegetables in Ethiopia with the aim of targeting increased food security in Africa using the supply chain management approach. The project is intended to identify where the potential losses occur in the supply and marketing chain, and best technological practices and potential intervention. The project links with the newly established, Ethiopian Logistics Excellent Center, EthioLog, where the two applicants are the major prime mover. The current proposal is inline with the activity plans of EthioLog. Idag, mer än 1,1 miljarder människor lever på mindre än en dollar per dag och cirka 430 miljoner i Sydasien, 325 miljoner i Afrika söder om Sahara, 260 miljoner i Östasien och Stillahavsområdet, och 55 miljoner i Latinamerika. Höga livsmedelspriser på den lokala livsmedelsmarknaden, men även för internationell handel, har ökat antalet undernärda människor från 923 miljoner under 2007 till 1020000000 2009. Produktion och leverans av tillräckligt hög kvalitet och säkra livsmedel är de aktuella utmaningarna för att föda den ständigt växande befolkningen, särskilt i utvecklingsländerna. Utmaningen är inte bara att producera tillräckligt med mat, men också se till att maten är äntligen fram, kommer att skördas, lagras, bearbetas och distribueras till återförsäljare och konsumenter på ett sätt som minimerar svinn från gården till mat tallrik. Tyvärr, både kvantitativa och kvalitativa mat förluster uppstår signifikant (ibland upp till 45% i händelse av trädgårdsodling och 25% i fall av spannmål, enligt FAO) i alla stadier i den efter skörd system från skörd, genom hantering, lagring, beredning och saluföring till slutlig leverans till konsumenten. I Etiopien efter skörd förlust som uppskattas till mellan 15% till 70% är i huvudsak hänföras till dålig styrning och kontroll inklusive emballage, förädlingsvärde hantering och förädling och transport. Därför, förbättra livsmedelssäkerheten kräver en övergripande strategi för efter skörd forskning var nya strategier, teknik och hjälpmedel kommer att utvecklas för att säkerställa att högre värde efter skörd fram kan hitta det sätt att den högre värderade marknader för ökad livsmedelssäkerhet, särskilt i låg-och medelinkomstländer. Det övergripande målet med detta förslag är att minska förlusterna efter skörd av frukt och grönsaker i Etiopien i syfte att rikta ökad livsmedelssäkerhet i Afrika med hjälp av utbudet synsätt chain management. Projektet syftar till att identifiera var de potentiella förlusterna uppträder i tillgångs-och försäljningskedjan, och bästa tekniska metoder och eventuella ingrepp. Utbudet värdekedjan styrmetod är den strategiska metoden för detta projekt.

Crowded refugee camps and environmental catastrophes e.g flooding and earth quakes often results in rapid spreading of diarrhoea and other infectious diseases if water sanitation cannot be controlled. Hence we need to understand how pathogens can survive and spread in water. The aim of this project is to determine how diarrhoea pathogenic bacteria survive in water and how water transmission affects virulence. 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. The essential genes will be identified and analysed to understand water-borne bacterial transmission. Determination of the transcriptome in the water-borne pathogens enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) and Vibrio cholerae in water by Illumina RNAseq analyses and comparison to the transcriptome under laboratory conditions and during dissemination from the host in diarrhoea samples will identify the specific water-induced transcriptome as well as the virulence transcriptome. The function of essential genes will be analysed by mutagenesis. Results will give a general understanding of dissemination of water borne infections and bacterial survival and virulence and may open up for novel strategies for prevention of water-borne bacterial diarrhoea.

Våra och andras 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 avser vi nu att med sekvensering i samarbete med forskare i Kina och Bangladesh studera alla gener som vatteninkuberade ETEC och V. cholerae uttrycker i vatten, diarré och i laboratoriet med hjälp av Illumina RNAseq sekvensering där man kan sekvensbestämma alla gener som uttrycks i ett prov samtidigt; transkriptomet.

We have been working within the field of Tuberculosis (TB) diagnostics and molecular epidemiology during the last 20 years. Now we would like to support the integration of this evidence into practice and to improve the TB diagnostic capacity in Honduras even further. Specifically, we will document and assess the implementation process of one of the non-commercial methods for detection of drug-resistant TB we have proven as a low-cost a reliable option. We will support the technology transference of genetic techniques for detection ac characterization of the disease. Additionally we will conduct pilot studies to test novel combinations of conventional and molecular-based diagnostics. And finally we will help to create a communication infrastructure for dissemination of our findings. This project will strengthen the national and international partnership as well as the collaboration between the academic and public health sector. It also will provide highly needed evidence on TB diagnostics implementation for programmatic use in real-life conditions.

The materials include light metal hydrides such as alkali-alanates and boro-hydrides and cage and tubular structures of boron nitride. This proposal is aimed at providing this fundamental understanding by carrying out first principles calculations based on density functional theory. We seek answers to the following questions: (1) What is the preferential site of hydrogen? (2) Does hydrogen bind atomically or molecularly?

Vår energihungriga värld blir allt mer beroende av nya metoder att utvinna, lagra och omvandla energi på ett miljövänligt sätt.

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. Det finns dock problem med lagringen av väte som måste lösas. 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 samt 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. 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 element som Li, B, N, C, Na och Mg intressant som material att lagra väte i. Tyvärr binder dessa material vätet med starka kovalenta bindningar eller jonbindningar vilket gör att temperaturerna som behövs för att frigöra vätet är höga. För att kunna förbättra egenskaperna hos dessa material, krävs ökad förståelse av bindningarna mellan väte och dessa lättmetaller samt på vilket sätt bindningsegenskaperna kan förändras. Egenskaperna kan förändras genom olika defekter eller dopning. Strukturen hos materialen spelar även en vikig roll när ett materials egenskaper bestäms. Material kan uppvisa förändringar i egenskaper beroende på ifall det är i form av t.ex. ett fast material, ytor eller små partiklar. I nanostrukturmaterial, som t.ex. nanotuber, 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 de här fallet behövs istället hittas sätt att förändra egenskaperna hos materialen för att höja temperaturen vid vilken vätet kan lagras. För att finna ett praktiskt användbart material för vätelagring krävs kunskap om egenskaperna av bindningarna mellan väte och olika material. De kinematiska och termodynamiska egenskaperna är mycket viktiga för ett praktiskt användbart vätelagringsmaterial. Elektronstrukturberäkningar och molekyldynamiksimuleringar är två billiga verktyg med vilka bindningsegenskaper, kinematiska egenskaper, termodynamiska egenskaper samt effekter av dopning och defekter hos olika material kan undersökas. Dessa teoretiska redskap kan ge ökad förståelse om strukturen och processerna bakom absorption, lagring och desorption av väte i fasta material samt hur egenskaperna i dessa material kan förändras. Experimentella efterforskningar för att finna material som på ett effektivt sätt kan härbärgera väte är mycket tidskrävande och dyrt. Teoretisk forskning däremot skulle kunna spara både tid och pengar.

The materials include light metal hydrides such as alkali-alanates and boro-hydrides and cage and tubular structures of boron nitride. This proposal is aimed at providing this fundamental understanding by carrying out first principles calculations based on density functional theory.

The intention is not only to define a protocol for the determination of the ultimate biogas/methane potential for a variety of biomass, but also to develop the suitable protocol as a tool for assisting feasibility studies of biogas plants, bio-wastes management projects, as well as evaluating and developing technologies for minimization of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. Produktion av biogas, genom anaerob nedbrytning av organiskt material, erbjuder en mycket intressant möjlighet att reducera koldioxidutsläppen och samtidigt minska beroendet av fossila bränslen. Den energirika biogasen (metan) kan användas för flera olika syften, exempelvis: värme- och elproduktion samt miljövänligt fordonsbränsle. Biogas kan framställas från en mängd olika typer av organiskt material och produktionen kan därför anpassas efter resurserna som finns lokalt tillgängliga. För att kunna dimensionera anläggningar och veta de miljömässiga vinsterna, i form av minskade koldioxidutsläpp och mängder organisk avfall, är det därför viktigt att veta hur mycket gas man kan få ut av det organiska materialet. En populär metod för detta är anaeroba utrötningsförsök i vilka man under kontrollerade förhållanden rötar ut materialet fullständigt och samtidigt mäter den producerade gasen. Resultatet från dessa är dock starkt beroende av vilka förhållanden som används i testet. I dagsläget finns flera internationellt erkända standarder som beskriver olika metodiker för hur sådana test ska gå till. Problemet är att de kan vara otydliga och inkonsekventa vilket leder till att forskare och biogasproducenter världen över använder olika tekniker med olika resultat som följd. Syftet med projektet är att se över befintliga standarder och parametrar som påverkar resultaten i ett anaerobt utrötningsförsök och, baserat på detta, utveckla en metodik som både är enkel att följa och som minimerar risken för orimliga resultat. Projektet genomförs som ett samarbete mellan Sverige (Lunds Universitet) och Kina (Tsinghua University, Beijing University of Chemical Technology och Chinese Academy of Science). Samarbetet syftar till att utnyttja kunskaperna och erfarenheterna från både den svenska och kinesiska sidan och samtidigt främja utbytet mellan de båda länderna. Projektets mål är att bidra till en mer generell och enhetlig utvärdering av organiskt material för biogasproduktion. Förhoppningarna är att en mer globalt erkänd och pålitlig standard kommer att stärka incitamenten för uppförandet av nya biogasanläggningar genom att bland annat underlätta för dimensionering och placering av dessa. Detta leder i slutändan till reducerade mängder organiskt avfall och koldioxidutsläpp samt bidrar till att minska beroendet av fossila bränslen.

Data collection and analysis will be conducted simultaneously in China (People's Republic of) and Sweden with mutual updating and evaluation, which act as the main mode of collaboration.

Given the vast cultural differences between China (People's Republic of) and Sweden, this collaborative project could provide a unique opportunity to understand these issues. The project will contribute to the most urgent and longstanding question about how to prepare mathematics teachers to teach mathematics effectively. Att bedöma och hantera elevers matematiska fel är en viktig del av en matematiklärares arbetsuppgifter. Att elever ger felaktiga svar och att lärare ibland har svårt att bemöta dessa svar kan bero på att såväl elever som lärare tänker och förstår matematik på olika sätt. Elever och lärare är också del av ett större sammanhang, vilket gör att även kulturella värderingar får genomslag i lärares sätt att bemöta elevernas felaktiga svar. Internationella jämförelser visar att lärare i USA undviker att diskutera elevers misstag av hänsyn till elevernas självkänsla. Detta står i stark kontrast till japanska lärare, som i stället använder sig av matematiska fel som en grund för fortsatt diskussion. En inledande studie som har jämfört svensk och kinesisk matematikundervisning visar att det finns tydliga skillnader mellan hur lärare i de båda länderna analyserar och hanterar elevers matematiska fel. Vilka är orsakerna till dessa skillnader mellan svenska och kinesiska lärares analyser av elevers matematiska fel? Beror det på skillnader mellan lärarnas kunskaper, beror det på skillnader mellan lärarnas kulturella värderingar, eller är det kanske ett samspel mellan dessa två variabler? Detta projekt syftar till att undersöka dessa frågor genom att noggrannare utforska dessa skillnader i sig och, än viktigare, att förklara orsakerna till dessa skillnader. Vi kommer att studera matematiklärare i skolår sju till nio både i Sverige och i Kina. Lärarna kommer också att få bedöma elevlösningar och diskutera elevers typiska matematiska fel. Vi kommer också att besöka lärarna när de under visar i klassrummet för att studera hur de svarar på elevers frågor och resonerar om deras uppgiftslösningar. Genom att undersöka hur matematiklärares kunskaper och kulturella värderingar påverkar deras bedömning och hantering av elevers matematiska fel, syftar studien till att få bättre kunskap om hur lärarutbildning kan förbereda lärare för en god matematikundervisning.

Child labour and protection are very sensitive issues that goes beyond the social norms, where economic gain and survival are the key. To fight against child labour and to identify the severity of the problem in terms of injury in the working sectors in low income countries, the international community has to act together. Through the current project, the partners may have chance to contribute to development of data and knowledge in the national Bangladeshi context, using a variety of methodologies. The current proposal aims at investigating the extent and characteristics of the mental and physical violence, injury or abuse, neglect or ill-treatment of children aged 5-17 years in their work places in Bangladesh. This project is part of broader research goals of a collaborative initiative between Karlstad University, Sweden and three renowned Bangladeshi research organizations (i.e. Centre for Injury Prevention Bangladesh, CIPR,B; Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, BSMMU; Institute of Child and Mother Health, ICMH). The collaborative initiative was established in June 2011 in order to meet two broader goals - development of interactive, international and interdisciplinary collaborative research, and supporting and building capacity for the local institutions in Bangladesh to fight injury, violence and ill-treatment of children, as well as poverty. With growing concern of the child rights and child protection from hazardous work situations in low income countries, UN Convention of the Rights of the Child (CRC) articulated child protection from any forms of violence, injury and abuse. CRC also addressed the child rights to seek social, mental, moral development and protection from economic exploitation and hazardous work situations. Also, data from the International Labour Organisation (ILO), UNICEF and local sources indicates the severity of the problem where children are more vulnerable to be treated violently at their workplace. Accidental injuries are also common among the working children. By using existing data from a routinely collected system in three rural and one urban setting and conducting qualitative interview and group discussions, the current research project may provide a clear picture of the level and characteristics of the injury problems among the child laborers. This project may foster a method that can later be implemented for policy development and for poverty reduction. The joint research activities will enhance opportunity to work together between the two countries and can help to develop effective sustainable collaboration, which furthermore can add national and international benefits.

Human and financial toll due to adverse events is high specially in developing countries like Bangladesh, due to failure in the design, organization and operation of the system. This proposal plans to develop a support system to reduce hazards and errors and improve the quality of care and safety. ICUs organizational structure, process and the occurrence of adverse outcomes will be studied. A multidisciplinary team from Sweden and Bangladesh will work together to study the factors related to Patient safety. Hazards related to medical device use will be addressed during device development as part of the risk management. Guidelines will be developed to detect failures and complications, spread patient safety principles. This work will provide a template to improve the safety aspects at the ICU employing ICT tools, to develop capabilities specifically in the areas of electronic medical records, medical equipment management and maintenance routine, medical and health education to prevent a person from being placed at risk of injury due to dangerous or defective devices or procedures. After the finalisation of this proposed project, we anticipate a continuation and replication of the project at other hospitals and clinics in Bangladesh, and other developing countries. To develop a model of patient safety system to improve the quality of patient care at the Intensive Care Units at the hospitals in Bangladesh The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) equipped with modern life support devices is particularly prone to problems related to patient safety. WHO noted with concern that there is a high human and financial toll due to adverse events and most of the harm to the patients is due to failure in the design, organization and operation of the system. The conditions are more acute in the developing countries like Bangladesh where there is a serious lack of risk management system. This proposal aims to provide a better understanding for the errors, risks and accidents related to the use of medical devices at the ICU, and to develop a support system using ICT tools in order to reduce hazards and errors and thus improve the quality of performance, care and cost effectiveness at the ICU. A multidisciplinary team from Sweden and Bangladesh will work together to study Patient factors, Task factors, Provider factors, Team factors and Institutional environment factors. The team will develop guidelines to detect failures and complications, spread patient safety principles and set the stage for further work to ensure safe and effective use of medical devices and thus improve patient safety and care. Potential use-related hazards will be identified using human factors engineering. The work will also describe how hazards related to medical device use should be addressed during device development as part of the risk management process guidance. Engineering and organisational skills will be developed to provide increased risk management activities to improve patient safety. A reporting system that allows clinicians and others to understand the problem will be created. This work will provide a template for future clinicians, researchers, and policy makers to improve the safety aspects at the ICU to bring benefit to all patients, poor and female in particular, who are dependent on the government hospitals. ICT tools will be employed to start developing electronic medical records, medical equipment management and maintenance routine, medical and health education to prevent a person from being placed at risk of injury due to dangerous or defective devices or procedures. The project will increase visibility of the ICT related activities for better safety at the hospitals in the developing countries. The project?s impact would be; effective intensive care with reduced risk, fewer people in accident, enhanced efficiencies in the health sector, provide better health, increase ability for higher income and thus reduce poverty. Therefore, the project will make significant contribution to achieve to support developing countries for better access to health information, delivery of safe medical knowledge and communication for the benefit of the patients After the finalisation of this proposed project, we anticipate a continuation and replication of the project at other hospitals and clinics in Bangladesh, and other developing countries.

Human and financial toll due to adverse events is high specially in developing countries like Bangladesh, due to failure in the design, organization and operation of the system. This proposal plans to develop a support system to reduce hazards and errors and improve the quality of care and safety. ICUs organizational structure, process and the occurrence of adverse outcomes will be studied. A multidisciplinary team from Sweden and Bangladesh will work together to study the factors related to Patient safety. Hazards related to medical device use will be addressed during device development as part of the risk management. Guidelines will be developed to detect failures and complications, spread patient safety principles. This work will provide a template to improve the safety aspects at the ICU employing ICT tools, to develop capabilities specifically in the areas of electronic medical records, medical equipment management and maintenance routine, medical and health education to prevent a person from being placed at risk of injury due to dangerous or defective devices or procedures.

To develop a model of patient safety system to improve the quality of patient care at the Intensive Care Units at the hospitals in Bangladesh The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) equipped with modern life support devices is particularly prone to problems related to patient safety. WHO noted with concern that there is a high human and financial toll due to adverse events and most of the harm to the patients is due to failure in the design, organization and operation of the system. The conditions are more acute in the developing countries like Bangladesh where there is a serious lack of risk management system. This proposal aims to provide a better understanding for the errors, risks and accidents related to the use of medical devices at the ICU, and to develop a support system using ICT tools in order to reduce hazards and errors and thus improve the quality of performance, care and cost effectiveness at the ICU. A multidisciplinary team from Sweden and Bangladesh will work together to study Patient factors, Task factors, Provider factors, Team factors and Institutional environment factors. The team will develop guidelines to detect failures and complications, spread patient safety principles and set the stage for further work to ensure safe and effective use of medical devices and thus improve patient safety and care. Potential use-related hazards will be identified using human factors engineering. The work will also describe how hazards related to medical device use should be addressed during device development as part of the risk management process guidance. Engineering and organisational skills will be developed to provide increased risk management activities to improve patient safety. A reporting system that allows clinicians and others to understand the problem will be created. This work will provide a template for future clinicians, researchers, and policy makers to improve the safety aspects at the ICU to bring benefit to all patients, poor and female in particular, who are dependent on the government hospitals. ICT tools will be employed to start developing electronic medical records, medical equipment management and maintenance routine, medical and health education to prevent a person from being placed at risk of injury due to dangerous or defective devices or procedures.

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.

Mikrobiell ekologi och genomik för ett hållbart jordbruk i en föränderlig värld. Det finns flera goda exempel på högproducerande och hållbara jordbruksekosystem i Viet Nams Mekongdelta. 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.

The aim of this application to the Swedish Research Links programme is to provide means for scientists from Jordan, Egypt and Sweden to meet and collaborate. The objectives of the proposed collaboration are (1) to test if new variants of TYLCV are emerging; (2) to use transgenic plants to reveal aspects of virus-host interactions and to generate virus-resistant plants; (3) to use fruit as a model to study virus-host interactions. There will be visits and exchange of scientists and students as well as organisation of annual workshops. The combination of expertise in plant virology and plant molecular biology from Sweden and the MENA region will be very valuable when addressing the research questions related to TYLCV diversity and resistance. The project will strongly benefit from the complementary background of the applicants. It would be difficult for the applicants to carry out the different project components without this collaboration. 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.

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.

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.

Barn med HIV i hembaserad vård - möjligheter och utmaningar i Etiopien Detta forskningsprojekt riktar sig mot några av de mest utsatta människorna i Etiopien. Barn med HIV och deras vårdare är inte bara utsatta när det gäller dålig ekonomi utan även i form av dålig hälsa, utbildning och socialt stigma vilket ibland även medför socialt utanförskap. Barn med HIV har ofta förlorat en eller båda sina föräldrar i HIV och tas omhand av syskon och släktingar. Bördorna för barnet och familjen är tunga vilket medför att ett stort antal barn aldrig påbörjar behandling och/eller avslutar pågående behandling. Vår forskning utgår från barnet och på deras vårdgivare. Målet är att fylla det kunskapsgap som finns inom området hembaserad vård för barn med HIV genom ett samarbete mellan forskare med en unik kunskap om hembaserad vård i Sverige och forskare med långvarig erfarenhet av barn med HIV i Etiopien. Genom att undersöka möjligheter och utmaningar för barn med HIV och som får sin behandling i hemmet och deras familjer erhålls kunskap och förståelse som i ett nära samarbete med företrädare för hälso- och sjukvård i Ethiopien kan bilda en bas för att utveckla framtida riktlinjer, planering och beslutsfattande inom vården för barn med HIV. Dessutom främjas utvecklingen av vårdrutiner och stöd för familjer där ett barn behandlas för HIV som är till gagn för barnets behandling, stöd till familjen och möjliga inom ramen för den lokala hälso- och sjukvården. Specifika mål är att: 1) Genom kunskapsöverföring utbyta information inom områddet hembaserad vård för barn med HIV, 2) Etablera en forskningsbaserad kunskap i ett multi-kulturellt sammanhang, 3) Belysa vårdgivares upplevelser när ett barn med HIV vårdas och får behandling i hemmet, 4) Beskriva familjens utmaningar när ett barn i familjen behandlas för HIV, 5) Bedöma hur barn fullföljer antiviral behandling (compliance) och vilka faktorer som påverkar när barnet avslutar sin behandling.

Specifically, phonon spectra are essential for thermodynamic properties and hence phase diagrams. However, first principles calculation of phonon spectra in disordered alloys is a challenging problem due to difficulties in computing the inter-atomic interactions in a random environment. In this proposal, we aim to devise a unique formalism for lattice dynamics in disordered alloys combining first-principles electronic structure methods, physically realistic models of chemical disorder and an analytic mean-field based method for configuration averaging. The effects of short-range order, partial disorder and temperature on the vibrational properties will be studied to interpret the experimental results available for binary metallic alloys, multi-component shape memory alloys, multi-component semiconductor alloys, partially disordered perovskite ferroelectrics and doped multiferroic materials. One of the key objectives will be to build up a database of inter-atomic force constants to serve as a ready reference for the community. This collaboration between Uppsala University and IIT, Guwahati, India involves exchange visits, organization of schools to train young scholars and joint publications. A solid material can be visualized as a rigid crystalline lattice of large number of atoms where the atoms exert forces on one another so as to keep each atom near its equilibrium position. Due to the connections between the atoms, the displacement of one or more atoms from their stable positions will give rise to a set of vibration waves or phonons propagating through the solids. Each phonon is characterized by a wavelength and a frequency. The study of the frequency spectrum of phonons is an important part of solid state physics, because they contribute to the physical properties of materials such as structural stability, thermal and electrical conductivity. For example, propagation of a phonon with a given frequency may disturb the atomic arrangements in a solid significantly leading to an alteration of the crystal structure. Therefore, the stability of a given crystal structure against phonon excitations need be checked first before utilizing the material further. The propagation of phonons is also responsible for heat conduction in insulating materials and the properties of long-wavelength phonons give rise to sound in solids. It, therefore, becomes imperative for a materials scientist to explore the phonon spectra and relate the features with the materials properties. Alloys are materials known from time immortal for their usability in daily life. With the technological advancements, new class of alloys have been attempted to realize new materials with properties that can alter human lives in a significant way. For example, a new class of alloys called shape memory alloys tends to remember their original shapes. Such property has enabled one to use these alloys for various different purposes. Eyeglass frames made out of these alloys can be bent out of shape, yet they return to their parent shape upon heating. A deep fryer made out of these alloys utilizes the thermal sensitivity by lowering the basket into the oil at the correct temperature. Along with metallic alloys, semiconductor alloys too have significant impact on today´s world. It is well known that given the shrinking energy reserves of this planet, new sources of energy have been explored which can be used in a cost-effective manner to benefit the entire humankind. Devising solar cells which convert solar energy into electrical power has been one of the biggest achievements in recent times. The solar cells are made out of semiconductor alloys, for example. It is, however, observed that to increase functionality of the materials, it is necessary to introduce chemical disorder into the parent materials in a controlled way. In a chemically disordered material, a percentage of a certain component is replaced by another element. One example could be in the context of the solar cells with semiconductor materials. A solar cell´s ability to convert sunlight to electric current is limited by the band gap of the semiconductor. For example, semiconductors with wide band gaps respond only to the shorter wavelengths. In order to utilize the full solar spectrum, one therefore has to tune the band gap which can only be done by chemical substitution. Thus, the substitutional disorder must play a key role in the functionalities of the modern materials. This, therefore, leads the materials scientists to first understand the behavior of such materials with various degrees of disorder. The behavior of these materials under phonon excitations must be one of the primary areas one should explore as that is bound to affect the dynamical properties of the materials with target properties as has been explained earlier.

Ginseng (Panax ginseng) är en plantväxt som växer i skogslandskap i mellan- och hög latitud i den norra hemisfären. Det latinska namnet panax betyder *läker allt* och Ginsengrötter har använts som naturläkemedel i över två tusen år. Bergsregionen i Changbai i Kina är en av huvudregionerna för kommersiell produktion av P. Ginseng. Molekylärbiologisk forskning har demonstrerat Ginsengs förebyggande effekt i vissa svårbotliga sjukdomar som cancer. En storskalig statistisk studie fastslog att ett signifikant antal färre fall av magcancer, lungcancer och bröstcancer observerades hos människor som inkluderar Ginseng i sin kost.

Ginseng har vissa demonstrerade anti-canceregenskaper, men både de exakta aktiva komponenterna samt de fundamentala molekylära- och cellulära mekanismerna för sådana aktiviteter är idag okända. Forskargrupper inblandade i detta forskningsprojekt har framgångsrikt isolerat flera typer av unika kolhydratmolekyler från Ginseng och upptäckt skillnader i anti-canceregenskaper mellan olika slags molekyler. Analys har identifierat de strukturella aspekter hos en typ av kolhydrater med högst anticancer-aktivitet. Dessa tillhör en grupp av molekyler som kallas pektiner. Pektiner har ofta låg toxicitet och är resistenta mot enzymatisk nedbrytning under mänsklig matsmältning. När dessa sväljs kan därför en signifikant bråkdel nå tarmen utan att förstöras på vägen dit, och sedan interagera direkt med tumörceller i matsmältningssystemet. Deras låga toxicitet möjliggör relativt stor konsumtion eller hög dosering som läkemedel. Men p g a bristande kunskap och medvetenhet under Ginsengtillverkning går ofta de värdefulla polysackariderna förlorade i tillverkningsprocessen, trots att de skulle kunna användas i matindustri och medicin. Ginsengpektin delar flera likheter med Citruspektin, som har studerats bättre i cancerforskning och är vanligt förekommande i cancerprevention samt cancerbehandling. Preliminära data visar att Ginsengpektin dödar maligna celler betydligt mer effektivt jämfört med Citruspektin. Citruspektin har visats interagera med ett protein som benämns Galectin-3. Interaktion mellan Ginsengpektin och Galectin-3 har uppmätts och bekräftats. Galectiner är en proteingrupp som konserverats till en hög grad under evolutionens lopp. De är vitt spridda i både frisk och sjuk vävnad och är inblandade i flera fysiologiska nyckelprocesser. Den totala mängden och produktionen av Galectin-3, samt dess fördelning innuti och mellan celler, är kopplat till tumörbildning och tumörutveckling. Galectin-3 har därför uppmärksammats stort i cancerforskningsfält. Galectin-3 kan interagera med kolhydrater genom dess Kolhydrats-igenkänningsdomän (CRD) i den C-terminala delen av proteinkedjan.

Mounting evidence suggest that bacteremic co-infection together with malaria aggravates disease and significantly raises both mortality and morbidity in these patients. Our group has become interested in the pato-physiological mechanisms behind this phenomenon. We have chosen two important examples of pathogenic bacteria for the purpose of exploring it; Streptococcus pneumonieae and Relapsing fever Borrelia, which employ different infection routes and carry singular pathogenic properties. Thus we have initiated a collaborative study in Rwanda where we are presently in the process of gathering patient samples from children suffering from malaria with different disease states. The patients are between six months and five years of age in acute stages of the disease. By sampling both blood constituents and nasopharynx as well as stool an urine samples, we will investigate the host responses as well as geno and phenotypic differences in the pathogens themselves. Studies on concomitant tropical diseases are rare indeed, and no study to our knowledge has been aimed at investigating the patophysiological impacts of malaria and bacteria in a clinical setting. Collateral gains through this project are already evident, in infrastructure as well as human resource-wise. A molecular biology lab has been equiped in Kanombe I Afrika är feber den vanligaste orsaken till att man söker vård, och malaria är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till behandling. Det står alltmer klart att saminfektioner med malaria och bakterier är en tydlig riskfaktor för allvarlig sjuklighet och död. Vi har intresserat oss för att särskillt undersöka interaktioner mellan malaria och två i Afrika vanligt förekommande bakteriella infektioner; pneumokocker samt återfallsfeberborrelia. I detta syfte har ett samarbete initierats med kollegor i Rwanda. Vi har startat en klinisk studie vilken inkluderar barn som är i riskåldern för att utveckla dödlig allvarlig malaria. Vi delar upp patienter i grupper i enighet med Världshälsoorganistationens malariadiagnoskriterier i allvarlig och mild malaria, där de allvarliga fallen delas upp i cerebral, allvarlig anemi samt respiratorisk distressmalaria. Ett blodprov från varje patient separeras i sina enstaka komponenter för vidare analys av hur immunsystemet och kärlbädden påverkas. Prov från avföring och nässlemhinna sparas för att analyseras senare för att identifiera andra eventuella saminfektioner. Genom att förstå hur dessa infektioner påverkar kroppen kan vi framgent utveckla nya läkemedel, diagnostiska verktyg samt behandlingsmetoder som är mer anpassade till dessa tillstånd.

Mounting evidence suggest that bacteremic co-infection together with malaria aggravates disease and significantly raises both mortality and morbidity in these patients. Our group has become interested in the pato-physiological mechanisms behind this phenomenon. We have chosen two important examples of pathogenic bacteria for the purpose of exploring it; Streptococcus pneumonieae and Relapsing fever Borrelia, which employ different infection routes and carry singular pathogenic properties. Thus we have initiated a collaborative study in Rwanda where we are presently in the process of gathering patient samples from children suffering from malaria with different disease states. The patients are between six months and five years of age in acute stages of the disease. By sampling both blood constituents and nasopharynx as well as stool an urine samples, we will investigate the host responses as well as geno and phenotypic differences in the pathogens themselves. Studies on concomitant tropical diseases are rare indeed, and no study to our knowledge has been aimed at investigating the patophysiological impacts of malaria and bacteria in a clinical setting. Collateral gains through this project are already evident, in infrastructure as well as human resource-wise. A molecular biology lab has been equiped in Kanombe I Afrika är feber den vanligaste orsaken till att man söker vård, och malaria är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till behandling.

Min forskargrupp är sedan många år intresserad av hur tarmpatogena virus som rotavirus och norovirus orsakar sjukdom och varför vissa individer förefaller vara skyddade mot *vinterkräksjuka*. Forskningen är starkt hypotes- och translationellt driven och ligger i flera avseenden i forskningsfronten. Akuta diarrésjukdomar är en av vår tids största globala hälsoproblem och orsakar fortfarande 17 % av alla dödsfall bland barn under 5 år i utvecklingsländer. Rotavirus är den viktigaste och vanligaste orsaken till akuta gastroenteriter hos barn i hela världen och orsakar ca 600,000 dödsfall per år. Vid sidan av rotavirus är norovirus som orsakar vinterkräksjuka den vanligaste orsaken i hela världen till akuta diarréer. Man uppskattar att >200,000 barn dör varje år av norovirusinfektioner, framförallt i utvecklingsländer. Trots omfattande forskning och två vacciner mot rotavirus de senaste åren så vet vi väldigt lite vilken skyddsförmåga dessa vacciner har i U-länder. Vi har i över 20 års tid samarbetat med forskare vid Leons Universitet i Nicaragua, inom området virusorsakade diarrésjukdomar. Våra epidemiologiska och virologiska studier har haft så stor betydelse att Bill och Melinda Gates, CDC samt WHO, år 2006 beslöt rotavirusvaccinera alla barn i Nicaragua, som det första landet i världen. Underlaget för detta beslut var bland annat våra tidigare studier. I detta projekt ska vi i nära samarbete med Dr Filemon Bucardo och medarbetare i Nicaragua, klargöra om rotavirusvaccinskyddet kvarstår hos vaccinerade barn. Frågor som ska studeras är om (1) rotavirus förändras i samhället efter vaccinintroduktionen, om så, vilka mutationer hos viruset är då orsak till detta. (2) Finns det risk att rotavirus från kor och gris ger upphov till nya farliga virus genom att genetiskt blanda sig med humanstammar? Med molekylärbiologiska tekniker ska vi klargöra om det finns risk för detta. (3) Vi vill studera om vaccinationen ger upphov till ökad förekomst av andra patogener såsom norovirus, på bekostnad av rotavirus.

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.

I en uppföljning vid 10 års ålder vill vi se om denna potentiellt gynnsamma påverkan kvarstår, samt analysera effekterna ur ett socialt och hälsoekonomiskt perspektiv.

Increased coverage of available and low-cost MNCH and PMTCT interventions could cut child mortality by 2/3 and maternal mortality by ¾. Evidence-based decision-making and resource allocation for achieving continuous health services during pregnancy and the neonatal period for HIV positive women in resource-poor, high-risk urban settings in Africa, emerge as tipping points for the millennium development goals. The rapidly expanding mobile phone market in Africa offers a window of opportunity to use new eHealth solutions in an innovative way to strengthen health service delivery in resource-poor health systems. We will use a community intervention trial design to assess the effect of combining evidence-based mobile phone technology and best practice models for PMTCT and health systems strengthening, on coverage, effectiveness and quality of PMTCT in 4 urban slum settlements in Kibera, Nairobi covering 175,000 people. The interventions include mobile phone message support (WelTel) from midwives to women via community health workers (CHWs), capacity building among CHWs and staff to improve quality of care, and, visualization of health data on program coverage using innovative E-tools to facilitate evidence-based planning. BAKGRUND: Det finns ett akut behov av att identifiera bästa praxis när det gäller implementering av tidigare framsteg inom mödra-barnhälsovård (MNCH) och förebyggande av mor till barn överföring av HIV (PMTCT) i svaga hälso-och sjukvårdssystem in Afrika söder om Sahara. Ökad täckning av tillgängliga och billiga insatser inom MNCH och PMTCT kan minska barnadödligheten med 2/3 och mödradödligheten med ¾. Evidensbaserat beslutsfattande och resurstilldelning för att uppnå kontinuerlig hälsovård under graviditeten och nyföddhetsperioden för HIV-positiva kvinnor i resurssvaga, urbana hög-risk miljöer i Afrika, framstår som avgörande för kunna nå millennie-målen. Den snabbt växande mobiltelefonmarknaden i Afrika erbjuder en möjlighet att använda nya IT och e-Health-lösningar på ett innovativt sätt för att stärka hälsovården i resursfattiga hälsosystem. MÅLSÄTTNING: Vi kommer att använda en community interventionsstudie för att bedöma effekten av att kombinera evidensbaserad mobiltelefon-teknik med bästa praxis för att förebygga mor-barn smitta av HIV liksom för att förstärka täckningsgrad, effektivitet och kvalitet av PMTCT i Kibera slummen, Nairobi, Kenya. De specifika studiemålen är: 1. Att optimera täckning, kontinuitet och effektivitet av PMTCT genom att öka upptaget av HIV-testning, mödravård, professionell förlossningsvård, mödra-barn-vård efter förlossnngen samt och antiretroviral behandling av hiv bland gravida kvinnor och nyblivna mammor, genom mobiltelefonmeddelanden från barnmorskor till kvinnor via s.k. community health workers (CHWs, volontärer som bor i området och som redan specifikt tränats för uppgiften). 2. Att förbättra kvaliteten på PMTCT vården och att stärka integrationen och kopplingen mellan MNCH, PMTCT och HIV vård genom att underlätta informationsutbyte mellan vårdgivare och klienter. Vi kommer att använda användarvänliga IT verktyg i kombination med kapacitetsuppbyggnad bland vårdpersonalen genom utbildning i IT, PMTCT, uppföljning, databashantering och monitorering. 3. Att underlätta evidensbaserad planering och förvaltning av resurssvaga hälsosystem genom att ge beslutsfattare enkla visualiserings-verktyg för åskådliggöra täckningsgraden av viktiga MNC-och PMTCT åtgärder. METOD: Studien kommer att utföras i Kibera slummen, Afrikas största urbana informella bosättning, där 15% av befolkningen är smittad med hiv (mer än dubbelt så många som det nationella genomsnittet i Kenya. Cirka 50% beräknas ha tillgång till mobiltelefoni. Vi ska inkludera fyra sk ´slumbyar´ (Laini Saba, Mashimoni, Soweto-East och Siranga) med totalt 175.000 invånare. Här har vi unik tillgång till den grupp kvinnor vår forskning riktar in sig på, hivpositiva gravida kvinnor i Kibera, tack vare vårt långsiktiga forsknings-och kapacitetsbyggande samarbete med African Medical and Research Foundation (AMREF) som erbjuder primärvård, MNCH, PMTCT och HIV vård i ovan nämnda områden genom fyra stora vårdcentraler. Vi beräknar att 1000 kvinnor (efter informerat samtycke) ska inkluderas i studien över 2 års tid, varav hälften i de två interventions-byarna and hälften i de två kontroll-byarna. Vi vill utvärdera effekterna av (mål 1) att barnmorskor med hjälp av WelTels redan för detta ändamål utprovade mjukvara, skicka SMS meddelanden på kvinnornas mobiltelefoner (eller via CHWs för de kvinnor som saknar egna telefoner) för att spåra bortfall och öka upptag och slutförandet av PMTCT under graviditeten (och upp till 6 månader efter förlossningen). Mål 2: kapacitetsuppbyggnad bland CHWs och sjukvårdspersonal avseende viktiga MNCH och PMTCT insatser före och efter att de erhållit undervisning om detta. Mål 3) utvärdera effekten av visuell presentation av data PMTCT planering och förvaltning, genom innovativa IT verktyg (WelTel mobilverktyg, ett utprovat Burden of Disease budget och planeringsverktyg och en modifierad version Gapminder programvara (www.gapminder.org) båda anpassade specifikt för Kibera.

Approximately 25-30 % of the global greenhouse gas emissions originate from production and distribution of food. Different food products, and thus also diets, are associated with various levels of greenhouse gas emissions. The overall aim of this proposal is to estimate diet-related greenhouse gas emissions and public health implications in a population-based study of 7 334 subjects. The specific aims are to: - Estimate the amount of greenhouse gas emissions from individually assessed dietary data. - Estimate the intake of nutrients from diets low and high in greenhouse gas emissions respectively. - Explore the potential association between diets with varying levels of greenhouse gas emissions and health related markers, such as BMI and biomarkers in blood like LDL, HDL and triglycerides. - Estimate the magnitude of greenhouse gas emission reduction achieved by substituting food products with high greenhouse gas emissions with food products with low emissions.

Globala växthusgaser och matvanor: En studie om hållbara matvanor och möjliga folkhälsoeffekter De globala klimatmålen kommer att kräva långtgående förändringar av både tekniska system och beteenden i samtliga samhällssektorer. Idag beräknas 25-30 % av växthusgaserna komma från produktion och distribution av livsmedel. Olika livsmedel genererar olika mycket växthusgaser och därför kan man påverka mängden växthusgaser som släpps ut genom att ändrade konsumtionsmönster och matvanor. Om många människor skulle ändra sina matvanor, t.ex. minska på mängden kött och öka mängden grönsaker och andra vegetabiliska livsmedel, skulle utsläppen av växthusgaser minska betydligt. Men det är viktigt att samtidigt studera vilka effekter ändrade matvanor får ur ett folkhälsoperspektiv. Syftet med denna studie är att fastställa hur mycket växthusgaser som kan kopplas till matintag, undersöka näringsinnehållet i en kost som ger höga utsläpp jämfört med en kost som ger låga utsläpp, om det finns en koppling mellan klimatvänliga matvanor och olika hälsofaktorer (BMI, blodfetter mm), samt undersöka hur mycket utsläppen av växthusgaser skulle kunna minskas vid en övergång till mer klimatvänliga matvanor. Vi kommer att analysera data från en populationsbaserad studie på 7 334 personer som besvarade en enkät om sina matvanor, varav 5 217 även blev vägda samt lämnade blodprover. Enkäten, kallad Meal-Q, är en beprövad och utvärderad webbaserad enkät som omfattar 185 livsmedel. Varje livsmedel i enkäten är kopplad till Livscykelanalysdata, som skattar klimatpåverkan från respektive livsmedel. Klimatpåverkan utrycks vanligen i form av koldioxidekvivalenter (kg CO2e per kg livsmedel). Resultaten från denna studie kan komma att få stor betydelse för vår förståelse för sambandet mellan matvanor, livsmedelsval och klimatpåverkan. Dessutom är det första gången som matens klimatpåverkan kopplas till hälsofaktorer. Om vi finner att skattningen av växthusgaser med hjälp av Meal-Q är godtagbar, kan metoden användas i framtida forskningsstudier för att studera matvanor, klimatpåverkan och hälsa i ett globalt perspektiv.

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. Den globala malariasituationen har förbättrats senaste åren efter introduktion av nya bättre läkemedel och förebyggande metoder såsom impregnerade myggnät. Speciellt har de nya artemisininbaserade kombinationsläkemedel (*ACT*) haft stor betydelse. Sålunda har t.o.m. eliminering av malaria från högendemiska områden aktualiserats. Vårt projekt i Zanzibar ger en unik möjlighet att testa dessa nya medel och mål och har blivit förebild i att demonstrera extrem nedgång av malaria och vi vill nu fortsätta detta med nya nödvändiga riktade insatser. Nya monitoreringsmetoder ingår, PCR och serologibaserade. Vi utreder och riktar speciella kontrollmetoder i speciella områden med kvarstående malariatransmission, s.k. *hot spots*. Speciellt viktigt är att dessutom följa upp att de nya läkemedlen inte ger upphov till resistensutveckling. Detta gör vi med molekylärepidemiologiska studier, tack vare att speciella genetiska förändringar, relaterade till begynnande resistens kunnat identifieras, bl.a. i vår forskning. Slutligen utvärderar vi ny potentiellt banbrytande metodik för malariadiagnostik. Vår forskning förväntas bidra till utveckling av ny diagnostik, ny epidemiologisk övervakning och nya kontrollmetoder av/mot malaria.

Vårt projekt i Zanzibar ger en unik möjlighet att testa dessa nya medel och mål och har blivit förebild i att demonstrera extrem nedgång av malaria och vi vill nu fortsätta detta med nya nödvändiga riktade insatser. Nya monitoreringsmetoder ingår, PCR och serologibaserade. Vi utreder och riktar speciella kontrollmetoder i speciella områden med kvarstående malariatransmission, s.k. *hot spots*. Speciellt viktigt är att dessutom följa upp att de nya läkemedlen inte ger upphov till resistensutveckling. Detta gör vi med molekylärepidemiologiska studier, tack vare att speciella genetiska förändringar, relaterade till begynnande resistens kunnat identifieras, bl.a. i vår forskning. Slutligen utvärderar vi ny potentiellt banbrytande metodik för malariadiagnostik. Vår forskning förväntas bidra till utveckling av ny diagnostik, ny epidemiologisk övervakning och nya kontrollmetoder av/mot malaria.

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.

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.

Thus, the concept of strengthening the mucosal immune response could provide a novel way of treating or preventing infections. We aim to develop a therapeutic approach based on induction of endogenous antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) by small molecules, such as phenylbutyrate (PBA) and vitamin D3 to strengthen the epithelial barrier as well as to improve the antimicrobial activity in macrophages through enhanced expression of the AMPs, which are critical defense molecules of innate immunity. We have shown that vitamin D is regulating AMP synthesis in the mucosa as well as in immune cells and finished a clinical trial where vitamin D treatment significantly reduced the infectious burden and antibiotic consumption among patients with recurrent infections. Vitamin D is even more potent together with histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDAC-inhibitors), which cause a 5-10 fold higher induction of AMPs. HDAC-inhibitors affect the acetylation of histones and regulate gene transcription in many cell types. Now we plan to use vitamin D3 together with the HDAC inhibitor PBA. Our future research on vitamin D/PBA mediated effects on human immunity includes: i) Can vitamin D/PBA normalize the gastrointestinal barrier dysfunction in HIV patients? ii) Can vitamin D/PBA restore corticosteroid induced suppression of mucosal immunity? iii) Is there a protective role of vitamin D/PBA against severe influenza infection? Nya behandlingsmetoder för att minska infektioner Antimikrobiella peptider (AMP) är en del av kroppens första försvarslinje. De finns både på våra slemhinnor och i immuncellerna där de kan döda mikrober. Ny kunskap visar att vitamin D styr bildningen av AMP i slemhinnor och immunceller. Under vinterhalvåret har många människor i vårt land låga nivåer av D-vitamin i blodet vilket är kopplat till en ökad risk för luftvägsinfektioner. Vi har nyligen testat dessa grundvetenskapliga fynd i en randomiserad, dubbel-blind studie. Vår hypotes var att vitamin D kunde förhindra eller mildra den totala sjukdomsbördan i luftvägsinfektioner hos patienter med ökad förekomst. Studien visade en reduktion av den totala sjukdomsbördan med ca 30% och minskad antibiotikakonsumtion med 60%. Vi har nyligen visat att D-vitamin kan vara ännu mer effektivt om det ges tillsammans med låga doser av s.k. HDAC-inhibitorer (ökar genuttryck), som t.ex. phenyl-butyrat (PBA). Våra experiment visar att närvaro av PBA ökar D-vitaminets AMP-inducerande förmåga med ca 5-10 gånger. PBA är redan ett godkänt läkemedel för andra indikationer (medfödd ämnesomsättningsbrist) och kan således direkt användas i kliniska prövningar. Vi vill nu gå vidare och studera hur D-vitamin i kombination med PBA påverkar immuncellernas funktioner avseende mikrobiell avdödning och immunsignalering. Vi vill pröva vitamin D/PBA behandling för att normalisera den störda tarmbarriärfunktionen vid HIV, stärka den steroid-utlösta försvagningen av slemhinneimmuniteten samt lindra svår influensa. Målsättning 1. Att studera tarmbarriärfunktionen hos patienter med HIV. Vi studerar om prognosen hos hiv-infekterade kan relateras till graden av barriärdysfunktion och allmän inflammation. Nästa steg är att pröva vitamin D/PBA behandling för att undersöka om barriärfunktionen förbättras och sjukdomsprogressen minskar. 2.

Den akuta HIV-infektionen reducerar immunceller särskilt i mag-tarm-kanalen, vilket leder till en uttalad barriärskada och ett läckage av bakteriella komponenter till cirkulationen. Denna process kallas för mikrobiell translokation och leder till inflammation och därmed ökad virusproduktion. Vi planerar en klinisk interventionsstudie på HIV-patienter vid Venhälsan i Stockholm samt på Black Lion University Hospital i Addis Abeba där vi vill ge vitamin D/PBA eller placebo under ett år. Vi mäter virusmängd och förbättring av tarmbarriärfunktion. Dessa studier kommer att förbigås av mätningar av tarmbarriärskadan med immunologiska samt bakteriologiska molekylärbiologiska tester. Tarmfunktionsskadan sätts i relation till sjukdomens svårighetsgrad och försämringstakt. 2. Friska individer kommer att få kortisonbehandling i tre dagar.

Detta görs före samt efter kortisonbehandlingen. Individerna får sedan vitamin D/PBA före och under steroidmedicineringen. Normaliseras AMP produktionen gör vi en interventionsstudie med vitamin D/PBA under 6 månader på patienter med nyupptäckt lymfkörtelcancer som behandlas med cellgifter plus kortison. Vi mäter antalet infektioner under denna period samt AMP produktion i luftvägsslemhinnan. Resultaten jämförs med placebobehandlade patienter. 3.

The main risk factors for GC are chronic infection with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, tobacco smoking and poor dietary habits. We have found that patients suffering from atrophic gastritis (AG) and intestinal metaplasia (IM) in the corpus mucosa, two consequences of H. pylori infection and predisposing conditions for GC development, have defects in several protective systems of the stomach. These include blood clotting, cytochrome P450 genes (CYP enzymes), and DNA-repair systems. Our hypothesis is that the defects observed in AG and IM leads to loss of protection against ingested carcinogens such as tobacco smoke compounds and/or carcinogenic mold toxins, which allows development of cancer-inducing mutations in the stomach mucosa. This will be addressed by mRNA-sequencing of stomach samples. Transcriptome mutations will be detected and correlated to alterations in the mucosal defense systems. The project is dependent on a high-quality biobank of patient samples being collected in Nicaragua, a country of high risk for gastric cancer development. The results will provide important information regarding the mechanisms of GC development, which will aid development of future prophylaxis or therapy of GC in high-risk populations. Hur kan infektion med bakterien Helicobacter pylori orsaka magsäckscancer? Nära hälften av världens befolkning är kroniskt infekterad i magsäcken med bakterien Helicobacter pylori. De flesta som är infekterade utvecklar inte några allvarliga symptom, men 1-2 % drabbas av magsäckscancer. Magsäckscancer diagnosticeras ofta sent p.g.a. diffusa symptom, och detta leder till en hög dödlighet i sjukdomen. Detta i kombination med den höga andelen H. pylori-infekterade individer gör att magsäckscancer är den näst vanligaste dödsorsaken i cancer totalt i världen. Eftersom problemet med magsäckscancer är störst i ostasien samt i central- och sydamerika, förläggs provinsamlingen i projektet till Nicaragua. Projektets målsättning är att öka kunskapen om hur det går till när H. pylori-infektionen orsakar magsäckscancer. Vi har i tidigare studier upptäckt att under infektionsprocessen försvinner vissa av magsäckens mekanismer som annars skyddar mot vävnadsskada och genetiska skador. Vår hypotes är att förlusten av dessa mekanismer ökar magsäckens känslighet för cancerframkallande ämnen, som t.ex. ämnen i tobaksrök, rök från matlagning eller olika typer av gifter från mögelsvampar, och därigenom orsakar cancerutvecklingen. Vi kommer därför att undersöka hur förekomsten av genförändringar (mutationer) i magsäckens celler förhåller sig till förlusten av skyddsmekanismer i magsäcken. Om projektet blir framgångsrikt räknar vi med att kunskapen från projektet ska kunna bidra till utveckling av nya terapier mot magsäckscancer, eller nya förebyggande åtgärder som kan minska risken för utveckling av magsäckscancer hos infekterade personer.

The main risk factors for GC are chronic infection with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, tobacco smoking and poor dietary habits. We have found that patients suffering from atrophic gastritis (AG) and intestinal metaplasia (IM) in the corpus mucosa, two consequences of H. pylori infection and predisposing conditions for GC development, have defects in several protective systems of the stomach. These include blood clotting, cytochrome P450 genes (CYP enzymes), and DNA-repair systems. Our hypothesis is that the defects observed in AG and IM leads to loss of protection against ingested carcinogens such as tobacco smoke compounds and/or carcinogenic mold toxins, which allows development of cancer-inducing mutations in the stomach mucosa. This will be addressed by mRNA-sequencing of stomach samples. Transcriptome mutations will be detected and correlated to alterations in the mucosal defense systems. The project is dependent on a high-quality biobank of patient samples being collected in Nicaragua, a country of high risk for gastric cancer development. The results will provide important information regarding the mechanisms of GC development, which will aid development of future prophylaxis or therapy of GC in high-risk populations. Hur kan infektion med bakterien Helicobacter pylori orsaka magsäckscancer? Nära hälften av världens befolkning är kroniskt infekterad i magsäcken med bakterien Helicobacter pylori. De flesta som är infekterade utvecklar inte några allvarliga symptom, men 1-2 % drabbas av magsäckscancer. Magsäckscancer diagnosticeras ofta sent p.g.a. diffusa symptom, och detta leder till en hög dödlighet i sjukdomen. Detta i kombination med den höga andelen H. pylori-infekterade individer gör att magsäckscancer är den näst vanligaste dödsorsaken i cancer totalt i världen.

This includes studies to elucidate immune mechanisms and antigens of importance for protection against diseases caused by these bacteria and to construct and evaluate promising candidate vaccines for safety and immunogenicity, initially in animals and subsequently in humans. It also includes a search for new ETEC colonization factors and analyses of emerging ETEC clones by means of whole genome sequencing. A new oral ETEC candidate vaccine developed by us, consisting of recombinant E. coli bacteria over-expressing the most important ETEC colonization factors and a toxoid will be evaluated alone and together with a promising mucosal adjuvant for safety and immunogenicity in Phase I/II studies, initially in Sweden and subsequently in descending age groups in Bangladesh. The aim is also to identify simple interventions such as calorie and micronutrient supplementation, changed breast feeding patterns, anti-parasite treatment that may improve immune responses against enteric vaccines in children in developing countries. Vaccine strains that overexpress putative protective H. pylori antigens will also be constructed and tested for protective efficacy in experimental animals. Den övergripande målsättningen med forskningsprogrammet är att utveckla effektiva vacciner mot två av de vanligaste mag-tarminfektionerna. I första hand ska vi söka ta fram ett förbättrat vaccin mot enterotoxinbildande Escherichia coli (ETEC) bakterier, som orsakar ca 400 miljoner diarré-episoder och ca 300,000 dödsfall årligen hos barn under 5 år i utvecklingsländerna och som också är den vanligaste orsaken till diarré hos resenärer till dessa områden. Vi studerar också faktorer av betydelse för att utveckla ett vaccin mot magsårsbakterien Helicobacter pylori. Ca hälften av jordens befolkning är infekterad med H. pylori, men bara 10-15 % av de som är infekterade får magsår och 1-2 % cancer i magsäcken. De flesta H. pylori infektionerna förekommer hos befolkningen i utvecklingsländerna. Vi har tex nyligen visat i en studie i Bangladesh att 60 % av barnen var infekterade före två års ålder, medan andra studier har visat att mindre än 10% av barnen i Västeuropa är infekterade. Behovet av ett H. pylori-vaccin har ökat avsevärt under senare år, framför allt i utvecklingsländerna, p.g.a. den alarmerande ökningen av antibiotikaresistens mot de läkemedel som används där för behandling av H. pylori. Vi har länge arbetat med att söka utveckla ett effektivt ETEC vaccin enligt samma principer som vi tidigare använt för att utveckla det drickbara koleravaccinet Dukoral®. Kolera och ETEC bakterier orsakar sjukdom på likartat sätt och vi har tidigare visat att en komponent i koleravaccinet, koleratoxin B subenhet (CTB) också kan ge effektivt, om än kortvarigt skydd mot vissa former av ETEC diarré. Det drickbara ETEC vaccin vi initialt tog fram bestod av en kombination av hela avdödade ETEC bakterier som uttrycker s.k. kolonisationsfaktorer, CFs, på ytan i kombination med CTB. Vaccinet var oskadligt och gav upphov till signifikant skydd mot svårare former av turistdiarré, men inte mot ETEC diarré hos små barn i Egypten. Avsikten med det aktuella forskningsprogrammet är därför att utvärdera ett modifierat ETEC vaccin, som består av vaccinstammar som uttrycker betydligt högre nivåer av de viktigaste skyddande bakteriella antigenerna, d.v.s. de fyra vanligaste CFs, resp en modifierad toxoid som förväntas ge mer specifikt skydd mot ETEC bakterier. Vi ska också undersöka möjligheten att förstärka immunsvaren mot vaccinet genom att ge det tillsammans med ett mycket lovande immunförstärkande s.k. adjuvans. Detta kommer att utvärderas i en omfattande dubbel-blind studie på vuxna svenskar som får det nya Tetravalenta vaccinet ensamt, eller i kombination med adjuvans eller placebo. Vaccinet kommer att studeras noggrant med avseende på säkerhet och förmåga att ge upphov till immunsvar främst i tarmen mot de viktigaste antigenerna. Om studierna i Sverige visar att vaccinet är oskadligt och ger upphov till starka immunsvar planeras fortsatta studier initialt på vuxna, och därefter barn i sjunkande åldersgrupper i Bangladesh. Vi ska också söka identifiera olika faktorer som kan förklara varför drickbara vacciner fungerar mycket sämre hos barn i utvecklings-länder än hos barn och vuxna i västvärlden. Vi ska därvid bla utvärdera om olika kosttillskott, tex vitaminer och andra näringsämnen ( Vitamin A och D, järn, zink mm), respektive om behandling mot olika parasiter före vaccination kan resultera i förbättrade immunsvar. När det gäller förutsättningarna att utveckla ett vaccin mot H. pylori ska vi söka identifiera de viktigaste skyddande antigenerna och immunmekanismerna hos människa. Vi har bla visat att vissa immunsvar är nedsatta eller förändrade hos patienter som utvecklar magsår resp magsäckscancer jämfört med hos individer som är infekterade, men inte utvecklar symptom. Avsikten är att utvärdera om sådana immunsvar kan förstärkas genom vaccination.

Development of new or improved vaccines against cholera and ETEC. We aim at a single strain, thermostable OCV with inbuilt CTB and adjuvant systems. We also (with A-M Svennerholm) develop a multivalent oral ETEC vaccine, optionally given with dmLT adjuvant and now entering clinical studies. 4. Evaluate mucosal immunization routes including sublingual vaccination in humans (cholera and influenza vaccines). 5. Studies of immune regulation and mucosal adjuvants for immunization or tolerance induction. We focus on a) the role of subsets of mucosally induced APCs, and effects and mechanisms of mucosal adjuvants; b) Fc&#436;RIIB. 6.

Kolera, slemhinneimmunitet och utveckling av vacciner och immunterapier Projektets målsättning är att fortsatt ha en internationellt ledande roll inom forskningen om kolera, slemhinneimmunitet och utveckling av mukosala vacciner och immunterapimetoder. Största delen av projektet är av stor betydelse för området global hälsa. A. Molekylär-genomisk forskning om förändringar hos kolerabakterien som kan påverka smittspridning och sjukdomsegenskaper. En ny typ av kolerabakterier har sedan några år ersatt den gamla El Tor-typen i Asien och nu också spridit sig till Afrika. Den nya typen är en hybrid mellan El Tor- och ?klassiska? kolerabakterier och bildar toxin (CT) av klassisk biotyp, och verkar också vara mer aggressiv än tidigare. Vi undersöker i internationellt samarbete sådana hybridstammars genetiska förändringar, förändringar i virulens, och ev. skillnader för vaccinskydd. B. Molekylär-genomisk forskning för att identifiera gener hos människa som påverkar mottaglighet för och vaccinsvar mot kolera. Vi har i samarbete med indiska forskare inom ramen för en stor vaccinfältprövning i Kolkata möjlighet att analysera genvariation mellan koleravaccinerade och placebovaccinerade individer som utvecklar resp. inte utvecklar kolera under 3 års uppföljning. C. Fortsatt utveckling av drickbara vacciner mot gastrointestinala infektioner. Vi har utvecklat ett drickbart vaccin mot kolera (Dukoral®). Fortsatt vaccinutvecklingsarbete är inriktat på: (1) Ett förenklat (en stam och en formulering) oralt koleravaccin med ökad effektivitet; (2) Att i samarbete med A-M Svennerholm utveckla specifikt vaccin mot ETEC-diarré, som är den vanligaste orsaken till diarrésjukdom hos barn i utvecklingsländerna och hos resenärer. D. Sublingual vaccination. Vi har i samarbete med C Czerkinsky (IVI, Korea) visat att på försöksdjur ?vaccination under tungan? är ett mycket lovande nytt mukosalt vaccinations-sätt som ger upphov till stark och brett disseminerad cellulär och humoral immunitet och immunskydd mot många olika infektioner. Vi ska nu i fas 1-studier med kolera- och influensavaccin undersöka om dessa goda effekter också gäller för människa. E. Forskning för att kunna förstärka och styra immunsvaret efter slemhinnevaccination: Målet är definiera regleringsmekanismer i slemhinnor, som bestämmer om lokal exposition för antigen leder till immunitet eller tolerans, för att bättre kunna styra det immunologiska svaret i den önskade riktningen. Specifikt studeras styreffekten hos olika antigenpresenterande celler som ?vaccineras? och effekten på dessa av mukosala adjuvans, bl.a. ett av oss nyligen framtaget lovande adjuvans (CTB-CpG-konjugat). F. Forskning för att utveckla terapeutiska vacciner mot autoimmuna sjukdomar baserade på oral tolerans och/eller B-cellsterapi. Vi har utvecklat ett nytt koncept för slemhinneinducerad toleransutveckling baserat på användning av CT:s oskadliga B-subenhet (CTB), som kopplats till ett relevant antigen/tolerogen. Detta har givit mycket lovande resultat i djurmodeller för autoimmuna sjukdomar (MS-liknande encephalomyelit, reumatoid artrit-liknande ledinflammation, diabetes och uveit), och även vid allergier och infektionsorsakade immunpatologiska tillstånd (schistosomiasis och leishmaniasis). Metoden har också visat lovande resultat vid klinisk testning på patienter med Behcet?s sjukdom (uveit med risk för blindhet). Nyligen har vi visat att B-celler är de viktigaste antigen-presenterande cellerna för toleransinduktion, och att kort provrörs-behandling av B-celler med antigen kopplat till CTB följt av injektion av cellerna till djur med tidig autoimmun sjukdom effektivt kan förhindra fortsatt sjukdomsutveckling. Baserat på detta ska vi i samarbete med kliniska forskare (1) Ta fram CTB-baserade fusionsproteiner för mukosal (främst sublingual) immunbehandling vid f.a.

The study is based on two large HIV cohorts; Swedish/EuResist and the Ethiopian ACM. The EuResist includes >55.000 patients and the ACM 800 patients from 7 geographically distinct sites in Ethiopia. We have earlier shown that our bioinformatic approach is better than other available methods for the choice of HIV drugs after failure. We will now further develop it by introducing three new scientific aspects: resistance to new categories of HIV drugs, epitope mapping and HLA-testing, into our research. For Africa, biostatistics based on the unique Ethiopian cohort, a clinical algorithm will be developed with which patients who fail therapy can be identified without costly laboratory assays. Also, African treatment data will feed the bioinformatic engine with the aim of developing methodology which can predict the best drug combination to use without resistance testing. If the project succeeds, the algorithm and the engine will be freely available on the internet and are likely to have a major impact on clinical care and research in the global HIV epidemic. Behandling av humant immunbrist virus (hiv) infektion har lett till en dramatisk minskning i sjuklighet och dödlighet. Dock finns vissa hot mot den långsiktiga behandlingseffekten, framför allt resistens-utveckling och biverkningar. Vi har tidigare utvecklat en mycket stor databas med >55.000 europeiska patienter där information om behandling och dess effekt finns. Genom att använda oss av bioinformatiska metoder har vi utvecklat ett system som kan välja ut den bästa behandlingen efter en terapisvikt. Dock har nya hiv läkemedel tillkommit och ny kunskap om att även den infekterade personens gen-uppsättning har betydelse för vilken resistens och biverkningar som kan uppstå. Vi kommer därför att utvidga kunskapen om detta genom lägga till nya data om virusets och den infekterade personens genuppsättning. Hiv behandlingen används även framgångsrikt i låg-medel inkomst länder. P.g.a knappa ekonomiska resurser kan dock inte patienterna följas med laboratoriemetoder på samma sätt som i Europa. Detta har medfört att multiresistens har blivit vanligt och att smitta med resistent virus blir allt vanligare. Vi kommer därför att på basis av ett samarbete med Etiopien ta fram en ett flödesschema, en s.k. klinisk algoritm, med vilken vi avser att kunna identifiera de etiopiska patienter där behandlingen börjar svikta utan att behöva använda dyra laboratorie-metoder. Dessutom avser vi att utveckla vår bioinformatiska metod så att den anpassas till afrikanska förhållanden och där målsättningen är att metoden ska kunna hjälpa till att välja den bästa behandlingen efter en terapisvikt utan att resistens-testning behöver göras. Om denna kliniska algoritm och en sådan bioinformatisk metod kan tas fram bedömmer vi att dessa kan komma vara mycket betydelsefulla i målsättningen att hiv behandlingen även i framtiden ska vara framgångsrik i alla länder.

The study is based on two large HIV cohorts; Swedish/EuResist and the Ethiopian ACM. The EuResist includes >55.000 patients and the ACM 800 patients from 7 geographically distinct sites in Ethiopia. We have earlier shown that our bioinformatic approach is better than other available methods for the choice of HIV drugs after failure. We will now further develop it by introducing three new scientific aspects: resistance to new categories of HIV drugs, epitope mapping and HLA-testing, into our research. For Africa, biostatistics based on the unique Ethiopian cohort, a clinical algorithm will be developed with which patients who fail therapy can be identified without costly laboratory assays. Also, African treatment data will feed the bioinformatic engine with the aim of developing methodology which can predict the best drug combination to use without resistance testing. If the project succeeds, the algorithm and the engine will be freely available on the internet and are likely to have a major impact on clinical care and research in the global HIV epidemic. Behandling av humant immunbrist virus (hiv) infektion har lett till en dramatisk minskning i sjuklighet och dödlighet. Dock finns vissa hot mot den långsiktiga behandlingseffekten, framför allt resistens-utveckling och biverkningar. Vi har tidigare utvecklat en mycket stor databas med >55.000 europeiska patienter där information om behandling och dess effekt finns. Genom att använda oss av bioinformatiska metoder har vi utvecklat ett system som kan välja ut den bästa behandlingen efter en terapisvikt. Dock har nya hiv läkemedel tillkommit och ny kunskap om att även den infekterade personens gen-uppsättning har betydelse för vilken resistens och biverkningar som kan uppstå. Vi kommer därför att utvidga kunskapen om detta genom lägga till nya data om virusets och den infekterade personens genuppsättning. Hiv behandlingen används även framgångsrikt i låg-medel inkomst länder. P.g.a knappa ekonomiska resurser kan dock inte patienterna följas med laboratoriemetoder på samma sätt som i Europa. Detta har medfört att multiresistens har blivit vanligt och att smitta med resistent virus blir allt vanligare.

The extents to which they are processed reflect the advances of the modern era. For many societies, wood is the most distinguished of forest products. The level and type of uses given to wood varies from one context to another. For example, in developed nations wood processing is in line with the level of industry. In Mozambique however, little progress took place in terms of wood processing. Amongst several reasons two are of major impacts, namely poor industrialization along with high diversity of timber species requiring specialized treatment. The latter reason has prompted selective logging in natural tropical forests overlooking hundreds of other wood species with potential to common uses. In recent years, natural tropical forests in developing countries like Mozambique faced rapid depreciation due to overexploitation of very few well known timbers. Consequently, this situation impaired the development of wood industry in Mozambique which included increased unemployment in rural areas. Therefore, the search for abundant alternative timbers is in the research agenda of developing countries including Mozambique. It is largely believed that the success of this approach will demand studies aimed at generating knowledge of wood properties for better utilization as well as wood anatomy for identification purposes. Timber products from lesser used wood species grown in Mozambique - Technology, properties, exploitation features and market possibilities Popular description of the project Tropical wood species growing in Mozambique have been studied but no information exists on the properties and service features of timber products from the studied species. The proposed study on the products from lesser used timbers from Mozambique will contribute to some diversification in the tropical timber market in Sweden and other Nordic countries. Undoubtedly the interest for these timbers will ensure employment in the timber sector in Mozambique as well as income for the country. The project can increase the interest of Swedish companies willing to invest and work with tropical timber. Mozambique is not in the list of the tropical countries with well established timber export. Forests are an important part of the ecology in Mozambique and consist of miombo woodlands, tropical rain forests and savannas covering 78% of the land surface. The forests constitute one of the major sectors in the country?s economy, providing diverse benefits to the local people, including material for constructions, firewood and charcoal production. In recent years the contribution of forest exports and wood industry to the gross domestic product (GDR) was on average 3%. A limited number of timber species (10-12 species, e.g. jambire, mahogany, azobe, meranti, teak, etc.) is mainly used for processing and trade worldwide. In Mozambique, the stock of well-known wood species such as chanfuta (Afzelia quanzensis Welw), jambirre (Milletia stuhlmannii Taub) and umbila (Pterocarpus angolensis DC) has become scarce in Mozambican natural forests. In this context, harvesting of abundant but lesser used wood species needs to be gradually encouraged and increased in Mozambique. Hence, the use of a broader range of wood species will conform to what the natural forests can produce sustainably to the demand and also will contribute to reduce the depletion of well-known wood species. On the other hand, the latest EU-wide trade data indicates that imports of hardwoods from developing countries were showing early signs of recovery in the first half of 2010. During this period, European imports of hardwood logs, sawn wood, plywood and veneers from developing countries resulted in 1 721 000 m3, an increase of 21% compared to the volume achieved in the first half of 2009. Sweden and the Nordic countries are increasingly interested in the import of tropical timber for the above application. The project will benefit for both Mozambique by increasing and developing the timber sector of the economy (i.e. employing more local people) and for Sweden by diversification of the timber product market and revealing the possibility for Swedish companies for investment in Mozambique forest products sector.

In areas with seasonal malaria in Ethiopia we will detect the presence of parasites during the long intervals between transmission seasons, treat asymptomatic carriers, and investigate the relative transmission capacity of drug resistant and drug susceptible parasites. We will also investigate the origin and spread of drug resistant clones in the region. In Tanzania, where transmission is higher, we will apply detection and treatment of asymptomatic carriers in an effort to lower the very high transmission rates. We will specifically monitor the first reappearing parasites after successful treatment for any particular characteristics that may make these parasites indicators of emerging resistance against artemisinin drug combinations. In both areas, we will monitor the spread of specific clones by microsatellite mapping. The results should be useful in guiding intervention activities in areas of different endemicities and help in reducing malaria incidence. Minskad spridning av malaria genom diagnos och behandling av symptomfria bärare. Malaria tillhör de mest spridda och dödliga infektionssjukdomarna. Trots en viss framgång i kontroll av malaria under senare delen av 1900-talet dör fortfarande uppskattningsvis närmare 1 million människor, främst barn av malaria. Under 1900-talet skedde dock en stor förändring i utbredningen av sjukdomen, i stora delar av Asien har antalet dödsfall i malaria minskat dramatiskt, medan utvecklingen i Afrika har gått åt andra hållet med en ökning i antalet dödsfall. Denna ökning fortsatte fram till ca 2005, varefter vi kan se en begynnande hoppfull utveckling mot minskande dödstal. Variationerna inom Afrika är dock stora, de länder som lyckats bäst har framgångsrikt infört de medel som idag finns tillgängliga, nämligen skydd mot smittförande insekter genom att använda myggnät, samt förbättrade metoder för att ställa diagnos och slutligen effektivare läkemedel. Genom att upptäcka infektionen i tid och sätta in adekvat behandling kan dödligheten minimeras. De framgångar som redovisas från flera länder gör att förhoppningarna om utrotande av sjukdomen, åtminstone från flera länder i utkanten av malarians utbredningsområde är möjligt. Det finns dock flera svårigheter. Antalet människor som bär på malariaparasiter utan att uppvisa sjukdomssymptom är större än man varit medveten om tidigare, vi kallar dessa ?symptomfria bärare? i detta projekt. Vi avser att studera betydelsen av dessa bärare i två olika geografiska områden med olika förutsättningar. Etiopien i nordöstra Afrika har en begränsad spridningssäsong för malaria i anslutning till regnperioder. Under torrperioden däremellan förekommer mycket begränsat med myggor som kan sprida sjukdomen. Tidigare studier i Sudan visade att ett förvånansvärt stort antal människor har påvisbara parasiter i blodet under hela torrperioden. I Etiopien förekommer visserligen två malariasäsonger men dessa är korta och även här finns långa intervall utan smittspridning. Dock har inte lika ingående studier av malaria under intervallperioderna gjorts i Etiopien, vi hoppas få svar på om situationen är densamma där som i Sudan. Det vi hoppas åstadkomma är att genom att upptäcka bärare och behandla dessa med effektiva läkemedel, minska risken för smittspridning under kommande regnperioder. I Tanzania med betydligt mer omfattande malariaspridning är situationen annorlunda, smittan förekommer med vissa variationer året om och en stor del av den vuxna befolkningen är parasitbärare. Även här vill vi dock undersöka möjligheterna att systematiskt upptäcka och behandla vuxna bärare för att möjligtvis minska dessa bärares möjligheter att sprida smittan till barn i omgivningen. I båda typerna av områden nöjer vi oss inte med att påvisa förekomsten av parasiter i blodet, utan går ett steg till i analysen. Malariaparasiter har en komplicerad utveckling och den form som orsakar sjukdom hos människan kan inte direkt överföras från människa till människa genom myggstick. För att bli smittförande måste parasiten utvecklas till en slags könsceller, kallade gametocyter, som kommer att befruktas i myggans mage och sedan omvandlas till en ny form, sporozoit, vilket är den form som myggan kan injicera i en människa. Denna utveckling i myggan tar 1-2 veckor. Vi vill under detta projekt förbättra metoderna för att påvisa gametocyter i blodet, eftersom det är de som bär större mängder av denna form som fungerar som smitt-reservoar. Kan vi rikta in oss på dessa smittbärare är chanserna störst att få en mätbar effekt av insatserna. Vi kommer också att analysera hur faktorer som variationer i immunsvar hos människor samt läkemedels-behandling påverkar förekomsten av parasitens sexuella stadier. Sammantaget bör våra undersökningar leda till en bättre förståelse för spridningen av malaria, speciellt i områden och under omständigheter där sjukdomssymptom av olika skäl inte visar sig. Vi vill också visa att man genom riktade insatser kan mätbart minska sp 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 Malaria control Basic Health Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2012-6088-1 Sweden The main aim of the project is to increase our capacity to detect low levels of malaria parasites in asymptomatic carriers, and to investigate if these carriers are reservoirs for spreading malaria during transmission seasons.

Under 1900-talet skedde dock en stor förändring i utbredningen av sjukdomen, i stora delar av Asien har antalet dödsfall i malaria minskat dramatiskt, medan utvecklingen i Afrika har gått åt andra hållet med en ökning i antalet dödsfall. Denna ökning fortsatte fram till ca 2005, varefter vi kan se en begynnande hoppfull utveckling mot minskande dödstal. Variationerna inom Afrika är dock stora, de länder som lyckats bäst har framgångsrikt infört de medel som idag finns tillgängliga, nämligen skydd mot smittförande insekter genom att använda myggnät, samt förbättrade metoder för att ställa diagnos och slutligen effektivare läkemedel. Genom att upptäcka infektionen i tid och sätta in adekvat behandling kan dödligheten minimeras. De framgångar som redovisas från flera länder gör att förhoppningarna om utrotande av sjukdomen, åtminstone från flera länder i utkanten av malarians utbredningsområde är möjligt. Det finns dock flera svårigheter. Antalet människor som bär på malariaparasiter utan att uppvisa sjukdomssymptom är större än man varit medveten om tidigare, vi kallar dessa ?symptomfria bärare? i detta projekt. Vi avser att studera betydelsen av dessa bärare i två olika geografiska områden med olika förutsättningar. Etiopien i nordöstra Afrika har en begränsad spridningssäsong för malaria i anslutning till regnperioder. Under torrperioden däremellan förekommer mycket begränsat med myggor som kan sprida sjukdomen. Tidigare studier i Sudan visade att ett förvånansvärt stort antal människor har påvisbara parasiter i blodet under hela torrperioden. I Etiopien förekommer visserligen två malariasäsonger men dessa är korta och även här finns långa intervall utan smittspridning. Dock har inte lika ingående studier av malaria under intervallperioderna gjorts i Etiopien, vi hoppas få svar på om situationen är densamma där som i Sudan. Det vi hoppas åstadkomma är att genom att upptäcka bärare och behandla dessa med effektiva läkemedel, minska risken för smittspridning under kommande regnperioder. I Tanzania med betydligt mer omfattande malariaspridning är situationen annorlunda, smittan förekommer med vissa variationer året om och en stor del av den vuxna befolkningen är parasitbärare. Även här vill vi dock undersöka möjligheterna att systematiskt upptäcka och behandla vuxna bärare för att möjligtvis minska dessa bärares möjligheter att sprida smittan till barn i omgivningen. I båda typerna av områden nöjer vi oss inte med att påvisa förekomsten av parasiter i blodet, utan går ett steg till i analysen. Malariaparasiter har en komplicerad utveckling och den form som orsakar sjukdom hos människan kan inte direkt överföras från människa till människa genom myggstick. För att bli smittförande måste parasiten utvecklas till en slags könsceller, kallade gametocyter, som kommer att befruktas i myggans mage och sedan omvandlas till en ny form, sporozoit, vilket är den form som myggan kan injicera i en människa. Denna utveckling i myggan tar 1-2 veckor. Vi vill under detta projekt förbättra metoderna för att påvisa gametocyter i blodet, eftersom det är de som bär större mängder av denna form som fungerar som smitt-reservoar. Kan vi rikta in oss på dessa smittbärare är chanserna störst att få en mätbar effekt av insatserna. Vi kommer också att analysera hur faktorer som variationer i immunsvar hos människor samt läkemedels-behandling påverkar förekomsten av parasitens sexuella stadier. Sammantaget bör våra undersökningar leda till en bättre förståelse för spridningen av malaria, speciellt i områden och under omständigheter där sjukdomssymptom av olika skäl inte visar sig. Vi vill också visa att man genom riktade insatser kan mätbart minska sp 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 250000 250000 250000 750000 Uppsala universitet 250000 Uppsala universitet 250000 Uppsala universitet SE-0-SE-29-2012-6107 Sweden Today´s pharmacy industry barely develops medicines for neglected diseases.

En av de viktigaste faktorerna som hämmar utvecklingen av fattiga länder är dålig hälsa. Många smittsamma sjukdomar förekommer, där HIV, tuberkulos och malaria är de mest problematiska, men också ett stort antal försummade sjukdomar är vanliga och problematiska, som snäckfeber, filiaria, flodblindhet, sömnsjuka, gula febern, denguefeber och japansk hjärninflammation, bara för att nämna några. Trots att det finns ganska bra mediciner mot HIV, tuberkulos och malaria, hindrar de höga kostnaderna att effektiva behandlingsprogram införs i många fattiga länder. Dessutom finns det ett växande problem med läkemedelsresistens. Även om nya läkemedel är under utveckling för läkemedelresistenta infektioner, så blir priset för de nya generationernas läkemedel som regel alldeles för högt för att de ska komma de fattiga länderna till del. Till det ska läggas att läkemedel nästan inte alls utvecklas för de försummade sjukdomarna, eftersom läkemedelsbolagen bara satsar på utvecklingen av storsäljare för de västliga marknaderna. De få läkemedel som finns mot det försummade sjukdomarna är gammalmodiga, ofta mycket giftiga och väldigt ineffektiva. Kostnaden för att utveckla ett nytt läkemedel uppgår idag till ungefär 30 miljarder kronor för var och en av dem. Att utveckla ett nytt läkemedel är med nuvarande teknologier en lång och svår process, där ett stort antal kemiska substanser syntetiseras och testas i provrörsmodeller och på försöksdjur tills ett lämpligt medel hittas som kan testas på människor. De flesta substanser misslyckas och processen måste börja om på nytt. Läkemedelsindustrin är idag i en global kris pga. de höga kostnaderna och de många misslyckandena och har därför mycket tungt börjat använda beräkningsmetoder över hela processen för att förbättra produktiviteten. Man använder huvudsakligen statistiska modeller som fungerar som matematiska filter vilka sorterar bort substanser som sannolikt kommer att misslyckas, men behåller sådana som sannolikt kommer att lyckas. Stora förhoppningar sätts till att dessa beräkningsmodeller ska vända läkemedelsindustrins nedåtgående trend. Läkemedelsindustrin introducerar de nya metoderna under samlingsnamnet prediktiva vetenskaper. Vi har i samarbete med bla. läkemedelsindustrin utvecklat världsledande komponenter vilka ingår i de statistiska modeller och matematiska filter som industrin nu använder för att förbättra läkemedelsutvecklingen.

DEN EURASISKA STÄPPENS MILJÖHISTORIA Från norr om Svarta havet fram till Kaspiska havet sträcker sig ett klimatiskt enhetligt område, som efter det grekiska namnet på Svarta havet går under den vetenskapliga beteckningen den pontisk-kaspiska stäppen. Den berör dagens Ukraina och dess västra grannländer, samt Ryssland och Kazakstan. Dess ursprungliga växtsamhällen är starkt förändrade av en långt gången uppodling, och området är i dag mera känt för dess svartjordsbälte, som tilldrar sig stora utländska jordbruksföretag, än för sina gräsmarker. I det långa historiska perspektivet är det framförallt herdefolk och boskap som har präglat denna stäpp, men alltsedan grekisk tid har det också bedrivits jordbruk i större eller mindre utsträckning. Stäppens markanvändningshistoria kan beskrivas som en böljande växling mellan herdefolken och de omgivande imperiernas jordbrukskolonisation. Den sista stora uppodlingsvågen tog sin början vid 1700-talets slut då Tsarryssland genomförde de stora kolonisationsföretag som bland annat förde svenskbyborna från Dagö i nuvarande Estland till deras nuvarande bosättning vid Dnjeprs strand. Under Sovjetunionen skedde den slutgiltiga omvandlingen av stäppen till en helåkerbygd. Efter Sovjetunionens fall kom stora delar av åkermarken att falla i vanhävd, parallellt med ett allt mer tydligt intresse för det bördiga svartjordsområdet från stora jordbruksföretag med bas i Kiev, Moskva, Stockholm eller New York. Området befinner sig alltså i dag i en kraftig och turbulent omvandlingsfas både vad gäller jordbruksdriftens företagsformer och vad gäller markanvändningen. I den pågående omvandlingen ställs två frågor på sin spets. Den ena gäller hur långt intensifieringen av jordbruket kan drivas. Hur hårt kan det högtekniska jordbruket med stora maskinparker drivas utan att jordkompaktering och andra av storjordbrukets negativa sidor riskerar det långsiktiga utbytet. Många av de nya utländska stora jordbruksföretagen brottas med högst varierande skördeutfall från år till år. Svartjorden är produktiv, men risken för dålig skörd p.g.a. torka har visat sig vara ett problem som man inte räknat med från början. Samtidigt höjs röster för att jordbruket nu bör bedrivas mindre intensivt än under Sovjet-tiden och att man bör ta tillfället i akt i denna snabba omvandling att säkra områden där stäppens naturliga flora och fauna kan bevaras. Den andra frågan gäller jordbrukets företagsformer. Just nu utvecklas i Ukraina, i ruinerna efter Sovjetjordbruket, parallellt två olika typer av jordbruk. Dels växer det fram ett småskaligt familjejordbruk, med basen i de små odlingslotter som tilläts under Sovjettiden. Många av dem kan nu också expandera i de andelar av den gamla kolchosjorden som varje arbetare nu tilldelats som privat egendom. Men parallellt med detta tas alltså allt större marker i anspråk av det kommersiella jordbruket. Frågan är vilken av dessa företagsformer som på bästa sätt dels, kan säkra höga och jämna hektarskördar, dels vilken av dessa företagsformer som mest effektivt kan bidra till fattigdomsbekämpning och ekonomiskt utveckling. Stäppens agrarhistoria under de senaste 3-400 åren kan nästan ses som ett laboratorieexperiment när det gäller olika företagsformer. Familjejordbruk dominerade fram till ryska revolutionen då storjordbruk infördes. Nu avlöses det av en annan typ av storjordbruk. Många av dem opererar i en ännu större skala än under Sovjettiden. Samtidigt så har familjejordbruket aldrig helt avskaffats och fortsätter att spela en viktig roll. En studie av stäppens miljöhistoria kan alltså lämna viktiga bidrag till en pågående debatt. Projektet syftar till att etablera ett samarbete kring dessa frågor mellan svenska och ukrainska forskare.

Många av dem kan nu också expandera i de andelar av den gamla kolchosjorden som varje arbetare nu tilldelats som privat egendom. Men parallellt med detta tas alltså allt större marker i anspråk av det kommersiella jordbruket. Frågan är vilken av dessa företagsformer som på bästa sätt dels, kan säkra höga och jämna hektarskördar, dels vilken av dessa företagsformer som mest effektivt kan bidra till fattigdomsbekämpning och ekonomiskt utveckling. Stäppens agrarhistoria under de senaste 3-400 åren kan nästan ses som ett laboratorieexperiment när det gäller olika företagsformer. Familjejordbruk dominerade fram till ryska revolutionen då storjordbruk infördes. Nu avlöses det av en annan typ av storjordbruk. Många av dem opererar i en ännu större skala än under Sovjettiden. Samtidigt så har familjejordbruket aldrig helt avskaffats och fortsätter att spela en viktig roll. En studie av stäppens miljöhistoria kan alltså lämna viktiga bidrag till en pågående debatt. Projektet syftar till att etablera ett samarbete kring dessa frågor mellan svenska och ukrainska forskare. Den svenska komponenten i samarbetet består dels av kulturgeografer och agrarhistoriker, som redan nu bedriver forskning i Ukraina kring den pågående jordbruksomvandlingen eller forskat om regionen från ett mer övergripande perspektiv, men också av forskare i la Sweden Stockholms universitet The Swedish Research Council Stockholms 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 250000 250000 250000 750000 Stockholms universitet 250000 Stockholms universitet 250000 Stockholms universitet SE-0-SE-29-2012-6124 Sweden The aim of the project is evaluation of traditional African herbal remedies by modern chemical and molecular biological techniques for establishment of their standardized preparation, identification of their bioactive constituents, and the exploration of their cellular targets as well as interaction mechanisms for advancement of novel treatments of multidrug resistant malaria pathogens. Natural product analogues will be synthesized for exploration of their SAR.

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.

It is an important cause of water and sanitation-related diarrheal disease worldwide. Despite major knowledge gaps in this area, the prevalence of cryptosporidiosis is generally considered higher in developing countries than in developed countries. Previous studies indicate that cryptosporidiosis may be a significant cause of diarrheal illness in Bangladesh, especially in young children.

Molecular differentiation of Cryptosporidium species commonly found in animal faces or human feces will provide important epidemiological data and improved sensitivity and accuracy for human diagnostics. The execution of the project builds on reciprocal exchange at the methodological and educational levels.

Smittspårning och förfinad diagnostik av den utbrottsrelaterade vattenburna parasiten Cryptosporidium i Bangladesh och i Sverige Parasiten Cryptosporidium orsakar diarrésjukdom, kryptosporidios, hos både människor och djur. Parasiten smittar via förorenad mat och förorenat vatten, kontakt med djur eller mänsklig avföring. Symtom på infektion är illamående, diarré och magkramper. Immunförsvagade individer, som exempelvis genomgår kemoterapi, är infekterade med HIV eller har annan immunnedsättning kan löpa ökad risk att drabbas. Personer med nedsatt immunförsvar riskerar även att bli kroniskt sjuka i kryptosporidios då effektiv behandling mot sjukdomen saknas. WHO har identifierat kryptosporidios som ett viktigt folkhälsoproblem i utvecklingsländer. Sannolikt är att den främsta spridningsvägen är kontaminerat vatten. Gjorda studier indikerar att parasitens förekomst är vanligare i u-länder jämfört med i-länder. Förekomsten av diarresjukdom är hög i Bangladesh och tidigare studier har visat av parasitförekomsten är sannolikt hög. Dricksvattenkvalitet och sannitet kan vara viktiga faktorer men även andra faktorer som översvämningar, nära kontakt med djurspillning kan vara viktiga. Kryptosporidios förekommer även i Sverige. Under hösten och vintern 2010 inträffade ett utbrott i Östersunds kommun där totalt över 20 000 personer bedöms ha smittats. Kort därefter inträffade ett nästan lika stort utbrott av kryptosporidios i Skellefteå, under 2011. I bägge fallen tros smittan ha spridits via dricksvattnet. En teori har varit att utbrottet i Skellefteå orsakats genom att smittan transporterats från Östersund till Skellefteå, men med tillgänglig metodik har denna hypotes har inte kunnat undersökas rigoröst. Det största kända utbrottet av kryptosporidios inträffade 1993 i Milwaukee i USA år 1993 där cirka 400 000 personer insjuknade. På liknande sätt som i Östersund och Skellefteå tros smittspridningen där ha skett via det kommunala vattnet. En begränsning vad gäller utredning av smittkällor och spridningsvägar för Cryptosporidium är avsaknad av metoder för att snabbt identifiera och karakterisera parasiten. Med de senaste årens revolutionerande framsteg inom DNA-sekvensering, dvs. bestämning sekvensinnehållet i DNA, har nya förutsättningar skapats för att utveckla robusta och högupplösande metoder för smittutredningar och molekylär epidemiologi. Vi kommer att kartlägga förekomsten av smittkällor för Cryptosporidium i Bangladesh genom en analys av kontaminerat vatten, där parasiten förekommer, och vidare, genom en genetisk karakterisering av parasiten. Detta kommer att ge viktig information om parasitens ursprung, till exempel att avföring från djur (boskap) eller från människor kontaminerat vatten. Motsvarande analyser kan göras i Sverige där parasiten sprids via dricksvatten och orsakar utbrott. Sammantaget kommer denna kartläggning av bidra med kunskap i hur vanlig parasiten är i miljön (prevalens), hur parasiten sprids och överförs till människa, och hur man bättre kan diagnosticera sjukdomen kryptosporidios med DNA teknik.

Hydropolitics in the Nile Basin has been comprehensively studied during the last decades. Issues concerning new land acquisitions are beginning to be researched. Academically, studies merging the two ´fields´ is virgin territory. This research aims to investigate the water and land nexus in the Nile Basin and seeks to understand how the current surge in land acquisitions and investments by foreign countries, sovereign wealth funds and private corporations, as well as domestic investors, will affect transboundary water interaction in the region. The research will identify the key land acquisitions, contractual conditions, type of water (irrigation from the transboundary river, groundwater, rainwater and etc.) and analyse the impact on the regional political stability and development. The significance of the project is a result of its unique contribution to merge the areas of land acquisitions and hydropolitics in the regional level, something that has hitherto not been done. In addition, the study seeks to broaden the theoretical understanding of how CPR dilemmas can be understood. From a policy perspective, the recent political changes in the region and the current impasse in the transboundary agreement in Nile basin call for greater understanding of this new dynamic. Nilen är den längsta floden i världen. Dess vatten delas av tio länder vars invånare uppgår till knappa 400 miljoner, en siffra som 2030 förväntas vara 700 miljoner. Under perioden fram till 2030 kommer sannolikt tillgången på vatten minska som en följd av ökad klimatvariabilitet och klimatförändringar vilket i sin tur kommer leda till ett ökat tryck på samarbetet kring flodens vatten. I skrivande stund har ett nytt samarbetsavtal har undertecknats av sex uppströms länder (Burundi, Etiopien, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda och Tanzania), medan Sudan och Egypten som är nedströms och som för närvarande åtnjuter privilegier genom gamla avtal, är negativa till det nya avtal som förhandlats fram. Vidare förändras snabbt den politiska situationen i regionen med revolution i Egypten och delningen av Sudan. Samtidigt har flera internationella faktorer, bland annat stigande livsmedels-och energipriser, lett till en kraftig ökning av investeringar i jordbruksmark, särskilt i Afrika och då inte minst i nilenregionen. Dessa ökade markant i takt efter den senaste livsmedelskrisen 2007-2008. Stora landområden i nilenregionen har hyrts ut, ofta över perioder som sträcker sig från 50-100 år och ofta till mycket låga priser. Mot bakgrund av ovanstående föreslås innovativ forskning som brett adresserar frågekomplexet land, mat och vatten. Ett syfte är att bättre förstå hur de ökande utländska investeringarna i nilregionen kommer att påverka vattnet situationen i regionen. Vilken typ av vatten kommer att användas för investeringarna? Är det vattens om är gränsöverskridande och därmed delat av staterna i nilen regionen? Finns det risk att typer av konflikter uppstår som ett resultat av att maktförhållandena mellan länderna förändras? Blir de nya investerarna nya aktörer i det vattenpolitiska spelet i regionen och i sådana fall på vilket sätt? Projektet är av betydelse från både ett forskning såväl som policy perspektiv. Akademiskt är det en sammanslagning av politik kring landfrågor och vattenpolitik som innebär att nya frågeställningar lyfts fram. Tidigare har ytterst sällan kopplingen mellan markförvärv och vattenfrågan gjorts. Den begränsade forskning som gjorts om markförvärv och vatten avser främst den nationella nivån. Ur ett politiskt policy perspektiv är den föreslagna forskningen också av stor betydelse av flera skäl. För det första är det nuvarande dödläget i nilenregionen behäftat med risker för eskalerande konflikter. Ökad förståelse för hur land-vatten frågan hanteras är därför central. För det andra är den politiska utvecklingen i regionen med delningen av Sudan och de stora förändringarna i Egypten något som pekar på att ny information och förståelse av situationen är central.

In particular, under the grant we plan to concentrate our studies on the development of some all-spin-wave logic elements for perspective *magnetic* processors, by using reach properties of magnetic excitations: spin waves and vibrations. We expect for a significant advance in the topic by combining the experience of Sweedish collaborators in the synthesis of new thin-film magnetic materials, and the experimental experience of the Mexican team in spin-wave and optical signal processing. The important point of our idea is to use a *shock* excitation of spin precession, in contrast to the classic excitation by monochromatic microwaves. The spin precession and its cancellation will be stimulated by fast electric currents with picosecond-range transition times. The all-spin-wave logics will be built on the basis of micrometer and sub-micrometer size spin-wave interferometers or coupled resonators. It is planned to use thin-film ferro-oxides as the material for the microchip design. This work can be considered as a part of a long term program on the creation of nanometer size (or even a single atomic chain) informational interface between quantum processing elements, such as a magnetic defects. We expect that our collaboration will give mutual benefits for both Swedish and Mexican participants. In some solids the atomic magnetic moments, determined by electron spins, exhibit an ordering thanks to the so-called exchange forces between the electron orbitals. These materials are called ferro- and ferri-magnetics. At proper conditions a microwave field can excite vibrations or waves in such spin systems at very high frequencies, of 1 - 100 GHz. The most important property of spin waves is that their group velocity is of three-four orders less than the velocity of electromagnetic waves. This means that at a given microwave frequency the wavelength of a spin wave is of micrometer scale, and, hence, the dimensions of spin wave- based functional elements can be significantly reduced. Moreover, the spin wave wavelength can be conserved to be constant at different frequencies by adjusting bias magnetic field. It should be noted that spin waves possess very rich properties, which are highly interesting both for fundamental science and for applied microwave and computing technologies. For example, almost all the known in physics nonlinear phenomena have been realized by using spin waves. The spatial and temporal bright and dark solitons (signal compression), three-wave mixing and second harmonic generation (synthesis of a new signals) and parametric spin wave amplification (transistor-less signal amplifiers) have been reported and implemented in functional spin wave devices. Recent advances in the field of magnetic dynamics are focused on the realistic objective of using spin wave technology in new nano-computing architectures. The main advantage of Spin-Wave technology is that an ensemble of coupled spins transmits energy through a perturbation of magnetic polarization without electron transport. This opens a way for reducing the dimensions of ?magnetic informational channel? (to few nanometers) excluding losses of a signal and the channel thermal damage (overheating) that usually takes place in current conductors. The principal advantages of spin-wave based microchips was described by A. Khitun at all in Nanotechnology, Vol.18, p.465202 (2007) where the authors describe how spin-wave logics can be used in nano-dimensional processors. In this collaboration work we plan to realize a number of technological steps, experimental and theoretical studies to fabricate prototypes of some all-spin-wave processing elements based on interferometric principles of operation, and by using fast magnetic field excitation of spin precession in dielectric ferrites.

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.

How the combined impact of more than one factor influence infection is at large unknown in both humans and experimental models. Intestinal parasitic infections are the rule rather than the exception in poor rural communities, where clean water, proper housing and sewage systems are not available allowing a continuous transmission of helminths and other water-born infectious organisms. In this project we aim to understand how gastro-intestinal parasitic infections influence and are influenced by nutritional status and if the combination of malnutrition and intestinal parasitic infection is a risk factor for development of trypanosomal disease in humans. In animal models we will explore how the combination of gastrointestinal infection and malnourishment influences the outcome of Leishmania and Trypanosoma cruzi infection, two related parasitic infections, which are endemic in Bolivia. The project will be divided into two parts, in Bolivia clinico-epidemiological studies will provide information on nutritional status and how this correlates with polyparasitism and different immune parameters. The other part, which primarily will be conducted at Karolinska Institutet, Sweden, is an experimental animal set up, where the impact of the most common nutritional deficiencies of poor populations can be tested on trypanosome infections in a mono or polyparasitic context. Samverkan mellan näring och multipla parasit infektioner Infektion med mer än en parasit (polyparasitism) är snarare regel än undantag i många fattiga befolkningar. Mag-tarm parasiter, t.ex. maskar kan frodas i miljöer där människor är trångbodda och renat vatten och tillgång till avloppssystem saknas. Globalt sett räknar man med att mer än en miljard människor bär på minst en mask infektion. Maskar och andra tarmparasiter kan både orsaka och bidra till undernäring, vilket i sin tur kan förändra kroppens möjligheter att hantera andra infektioner. Parasitiska maskar kan dessutom direkt, genom det immunsvar de genererar, negativt påverka immunitet mot andra infektioner. Vår kropp reagerar med olika typer av immunsvar beroende på vilken typ av infektion eller stimuli som ges. Maskar driver ett immunsvar som liknar det man får vid en allergisk reaktion, ett T cells svar av så kallat typ 2 (Th2). Detta Th2 svar motverkar en annan typ av T cells svar som kallas Th1. Th1 svar är av betydelse för att kontrollera många infektioner, framför allt mikroorganismer som lever inne i makrofager, som Mykobakterier, Leishmania och Trypanosoma cruzi. I det här projektet vill vi undersöka om det finns en koppling mellan näringsstatus, maskinfektion och förmågan att generera ett adekvat immunsvar mot Leishmania och Trypanosoma cruzi, två besläktade parasiter som båda är endemiska i Bolivia. Vi tror att maskinfektion dels bidrar till undernäring, men också att effekten av masken i en undernärd värd skiljer sig från den där obegränsad tillgång till näring finns. Vår hypotes är att maskinfektion i kombination med undernäring försämrar kroppens förmåga att kontrollera både Leishmania och T. cruzi jämfört med vad enbart maskinfektion eller undernäring hade gjort. Denna hypotes kan tyckas självklar, men det finns studier som tyder på att viss undernäring, t.ex. järnbrist, kan missgynna maskar och andra parasiter och på så sätt vara till fördel för värden. Vårt projekt är uppdelat i två delar ? en klinisk/epidemiologisk del, som görs i Bolivia, och en experimentell del som görs på Karolinska Institutet. I Bolivia kommer vi att göra studier på skolbarn, som är den åldersgrupp som har mest maskinfektioner. Avföringsprover kommer att samlas från samtliga barn för att se om de bär på maskar. För att se om de lider av någon form av närings brist kommer barnen att mätas och vägas, vidare kommer deras nivåer av olika vitaminer och spårämnen att mätas. Slutligen kommer blodprover att samlas in för att undersöka om barnen har exponerats för Leishmania eller T. cruzi och vilken typ av immunsvar de har mot dessa parasiter. Resultaten kommer att ge viktig information om kopplingen mellan undernäring och mask och hur detta påverkar immunsvaret mot en sekundär infektion. Resultaten från de kliniska studierna kommer att vara vägledande för vilka näringsämning som vi ska fokusera på i experimentella djurförsök som görs på möss. I våra djurmodeller kommer vi under kontrollerade förhållanden studera hur mask (Heligmosomides polygyrus) respektive och i kombination med undernäring påverkar djuret förmåga att hantera infektion med Leishmania eller T. cruzi. Den mask som vi infekterar mössen med har mus som sin naturliga värd och kan därför etablera en kronisk infektion. Detta är viktigt då de flesta maskinfektioner är kroniska. Om resultaten visa på en tydlig koppling mellan undernäring och maskinfektion i påverkan på sekundärinfektion kommer vi att testa hur kosttillskott samt avmaskning, i undernärda djur, påverkar förmågan att kontrollera Leishmania och/eller T. cruzi. Resultaten är betydelse för avmaskningsstrategier och hur kosttillskott ges i områden där polyparasitism är vanligt.

How the combined impact of more than one factor influence infection is at large unknown in both humans and experimental models. Intestinal parasitic infections are the rule rather than the exception in poor rural communities, where clean water, proper housing and sewage systems are not available allowing a continuous transmission of helminths and other water-born infectious organisms.

The chemistry of Bogolan cloth is not only historically and culturally significant and of importance in textile conservation but will be used as an inspiration for development of sustainable dyeing and processing techniques based on other natural products. The work will be performed in close collaboration between research groups lead by Prof. Lennart Bergström (Stockholm University, Sweden) and Prof. Mama Plea (University of Bamako, Mali). The project will enable several researchers from Mali to be a part of a joint research effort and obtain training in advanced techniques, and challenge scientists from Sweden to appreciate and obtain a deeper knowledge obtained and perfected through many generations. The vision of this project is to serve as a first step towards a (re)newed ?antro-inspired? take in traditional manufacturing techniques based on renewable resources that have been forgotten in the developed world but still thrive in developing countries. This work has a potential to go much beyond the proposed work plan. The possibility to transfer this unique dying technique to functionalise e.g. nanopaper is exciting and this work also has the potential to be of interest to the cotton industry that are in urgent need of finding new methods to dye cotton in a more environmentally friendly manner. Växtfärgning med lera och blad: en traditionell nanoteknik från Mali Bogolan är en traditionell metod att framställa handgjorda afrikanska textilier som har sitt ursprung i Mali, där det har producerats och använts sedan medeltiden.

However, available technologies do not allow us to harvest even 0.02 % of such energy in a cost-efficient way. This would be more than sufficient to meet our energy demands. To change this scenario, novel breakthrough technologies for converting, storing and using solar energy must be developed. The conversion of solar energy into chemical fuels through photocatalytic water splitting and electrochemical CO2 reduction, appears as a promising alternative, but still a strong research agenda is needed for achieving the desirable goals. It is the aim of the present proposal to contribute in this field. Through a sophisticated combination of complementary computational materials science methods, a new methodology for modeling complex multi-electron transfer redox reactions will be developed. The fundamental understanding of the underlying mechanisms of the these reactions will be advanced, culminating on the design of a new integrated system for large-scale solar fuel production using abundant and environmentally friendly elements. The dissemination of the resulting theoretical insights from this systematic study will be highly beneficial for the guidance of experimental efforts in the field of solar energy harvesting in general and for the related Swedish infrastructure and economy in particular. 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.

The research focus of the group at University of Campinas, Brazil is to characterize the content of bioactive components and antioxidant potential of relevant crops as well as measuring the biotransformation of anthocyanins in biological samples (blood and urine) from the human intervention. The group at Lund University in Sweden will contribute with expertise in design of carbohydrate rich foods/meals with low glycaemic impact as well as performance of acute and semi-acute human intervention trials. Both principal investigators are relatively young and interested in establishing new international collaborations. A preliminary meal study was performed during the 3 month stay of Mario Marostica Junior at Lund University in 2009. In that study, freeze dried husks from Myrciaria caulifolia was included in the breakfast meal served to healthy subjects. Some analyses from that study are still in progress both in Lund and Campinas but as soon as they are ready the results should be compiled in a joint publication. The funding applied for in the present proposal will be used to facilitate shorter research visits for PhD-students from both universities to exchange knowledge about methodology. In addition, the PIs will meet to work on joint publications and funding proposals. I det aktuella projektet vill forskarna undersöka om det finns frukter och bär från Brasilien, som kan ha positiva effekter på människors hälsa. Det är ett stort problem världen över att människor väger för mycket och risken för alla överviktiga är att drabbas av följdsjukdomar som till exempel diabetes och hjärtkärl-problem. De aktuella forskargrupperna i Sverige respektive Brasilien arbetar med olika utgångspunkt och inriktning med att studera hälsopotentialen hos olika livsmedel. Gemensamt för oss är att vi tror att klokt designade livsmedel kan hjälpa till att bromsa den globala ohälsoutvecklingen och det är viktigt att förena krafter från olika världsdelar i det arbetet. Mycket kunskap finns i bla Sydamerika när det gäller att använda växter för behandling av olika åkommor. Det är en viktig utgångspunkt för detta forskningsprojekt som har som mål att identifiera frukter och bär med positiva hälsoeffekter. Inom projektet planeras en utvärdering av den kemiska sammansättningen hos ett tiotal frukter och bär, varav sedan 4-6 stycken väljs ut för att testas i måltidsförsök på friska frivilliga försökspersoner.

The research focus of the group at University of Campinas, Brazil is to characterize the content of bioactive components and antioxidant potential of relevant crops as well as measuring the biotransformation of anthocyanins in biological samples (blood and urine) from the human intervention. The group at Lund University in Sweden will contribute with expertise in design of carbohydrate rich foods/meals with low glycaemic impact as well as performance of acute and semi-acute human intervention trials. Both principal investigators are relatively young and interested in establishing new international collaborations. A preliminary meal study was performed during the 3 month stay of Mario Marostica Junior at Lund University in 2009. In that study, freeze dried husks from Myrciaria caulifolia was included in the breakfast meal served to healthy subjects. Some analyses from that study are still in progress both in Lund and Campinas but as soon as they are ready the results should be compiled in a joint publication. The funding applied for in the present proposal will be used to facilitate shorter research visits for PhD-students from both universities to exchange knowledge about methodology. In addition, the PIs will meet to work on joint publications and funding proposals. I det aktuella projektet vill forskarna undersöka om det finns frukter och bär från Brasilien, som kan ha positiva effekter på människors hälsa. Det är ett stort problem världen över att människor väger för mycket och risken för alla överviktiga är att drabbas av följdsjukdomar som till exempel diabetes och hjärtkärl-problem. De aktuella forskargrupperna i Sverige respektive Brasilien arbetar med olika utgångspunkt och inriktning med att studera hälsopotentialen hos olika livsmedel. Gemensamt för oss är att vi tror att klokt designade livsmedel kan hjälpa till att bromsa den globala ohälsoutvecklingen och det är viktigt att förena krafter från olika världsdelar i det arbetet. Mycket kunskap finns i bla Sydamerika när det gäller att använda växter för behandling av olika åkommor.

Not only is it central to our food habits but also it is a base chemical to various industries. Presently, Uganda still depends on imported salts from the neighboring countries to meet its demands despite the existence of a natural saline lake resource in Lake Katwe. This project seeks to develop a crystallization methodology to recover salt from brines such as those found at Lake Katwe. This includes the development of strategies to remove impurities by means of precipitation, re-crystallization, and other techniques, as well as the design of processes applicable to Lake Katwe. The research is based on laboratory experiments run both in Sweden and Uganda using brines from Lake Katwe. Preliminary investigations of the lake deposit within a running project will provide fundamental information regarding the nature and uniqueness of Lake Katwe brines. The present research project aims at developing a thorough expertise in salt crystallization technologies that, on one hand side, will allow for a better understanding of the specific process requirements a salt production plant at Lake Katwe had to fulfill. On the other hand, the collaborative research project will enhance the capacity of higher education through graduate and undergraduate training and through vital exchange. Uganda is well endowed with commercial salt reserves evident in the brines and evaporite deposits of Lake Katwe. The lakes brines contain a very high proportion of salts.

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.

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.

The problems can have different causes, e.g. that the experts use a terminology and ways of expression that many cannot understand or that experts disagree about health risks, what causes diseases and how they can be avoided. Information does not reach everybody in their own language in multicultural environments, where there is also considerably more illness. The project is a collaboration between two interdisciplinary centers, where different forms of information about health and health risks from researchers and other experts are studied from the perspective accessibility for the general public. The project will study written reports, journal articles, leaflets, expert talks in public and in radio or TV programs. Several methods are combined, e.g. text analysis of documents and analysis of video-recorded interviews and focus group conversations involving persons from the general public or health experts from different disciplines. The international collaboration makes comparisons of two culturally very different societies possible with a wide variety of relevant factors influencing public understanding of health communication. This will be useful for drawing conclusions about improvements of health communication and providing guidelines to experts that can contribute to improved health information and health. Allmänhetens förståelse av experters information om hälsorisker i Malaysia och Sverige I såväl Sverige som Malaysia har allmänheten ibland problem med att få del av och förstå experters/forskares information om risker. Problemen kan ha flera olika orsaker, t ex att experter använder en terminologi och ett uttryckssätt som allmänheten inte förstår eller att experter är oeniga om vilka hälsorisker som finns, vilka orsaker som ligger bakom dem och hur man undviker dem. Information om hälsorisker når inte heller alla berörda och i synnerhet i mångkulturella miljöer finns inte alltid information på språk som invånarna förstår. Detta leder bl a till ett väsentligt sämre hälsoläge i vissa miljöer, t ex en del svenska förorter och bland stora delar av allmänheten i Malaysia. Projektet är ett samarbete mellan två tvärvetenskapliga centrumbildningar, en i Malaysia och en i Sverige, där olika former av information om hälsa och hälsorisker från forskare och andra experter studeras närmare utifrån allmänhetens möjligheter att få del av och förstå dem. Det gäller skriven information i artiklar, rapporter, media och broschyrer och muntlig information i t ex föredrag, radio- och TV-program. Flera olika forskningsmetoder kombineras i studierna. En är textanalys av dokument med hälsoinformation, en annan är analys av videoinspelade intervjuer och fokusgruppsamtal mellan personer ur allmänheten och mellan hälsoexperter från olika ämnesområden, en tredje är frågeformulär till allmänheten. En studie av hur olika typer av metoder från olika vetenskaper fungerar i detta sammanhang ingår även. Studierna utförs i en mångkulturell miljö i Malaysia, där malaysisk, kinesisk och indisk kultur finns bland allmänheten och en mångkulturell miljö i Sverige, där ett stort antal kulturer finns i invandrartäta förorter. Det internationella samarbetet möjliggör studier av hälsoinformation som produceras och konsumeras i två kulturellt mycket skilda länder, vilket ger tillgång till en större variation i såväl informationens utformning som faktorer som påverkar allmänhetens förståelse. Genom kombinationen av två tvärvetenskapliga forskningsgrupper har projektet även tillgång till experter på ett större antal forskningsmetoder. Genom att jämföra hur hälsoinformation fungerar i de två länderna blir det möjligt att nå längre när det gäller analys och förklaring. De två miljöerna innebär såväl likheter som skillnader i vilka riktlinjer för hälsoinformation som kan rekommenderas utifrån studierna. De två forskningsgrupperna kommer att ha kontinuerlig kontakt genom ömsesidiga besök, Skype-möten och en gemensam workshop per år. Målet är att få en bättre uppfattning om hur den expertinformation om hälsa och hälsorisker som finns i Malaysia och Sverige utformas, vilka de främsta hindren för tillgänglighet och förståelse av hälsoinformation är, ur allmänhetens perspektiv, särskilt i flerkulturella miljöer, och vad man kan göra för att öka tillgången till förståelig hälsoinformation och därmed öka invånarnas möjligheter att hålla sig friska och undvika hälsorisker.

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.

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 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 strong monsoon influence has varied over time and in turn affected the landscape and vegetation through periods of intense droughts and floods. Lying directly in the path of the monsoons, Sri Lanka is strongly impacted by the SW (summer) and NE (winter) monsoons. Hence, it represents a key region for a better understanding of monsoon variability, its dynamics and long-term impact on climate. However, there have been hardly any studies of these excellent paleoclimate archives (e.g. pristine lagoons, lakes, speleothems) to investigate the response of monsoon variability. Our goals are to 1) reconstruct a high-resolution Holocene paleoclimate record based on 14C age and various geochemical proxies (e.g. sediment characteristics, trace metals, stable isotopes), 2) determine vegetation changes based on specific biomarkers and 3) correlate the data with other proxy records from south-east Asia. We will establish a two-way knowledge exchange, and the new research initiatives and strategic collaboration will provide fresh insights, benefit exchange of students and scientists, and improve existing research facilities. Moreover, our efforts will contribute in filling knowledge gaps and generate a detailed paleoclimate record tracing past changes. This data will provide a baseline for future actions related to regional climate change and its long-term impacts. Indiska monsunen har avgörande betydelse för att förstå den globala och regionala monsunens variationer och övergripande klimatförändringar i Asien. Intensifieringen av monsunen började för ca 10 000 år sedan för att sedan gradvis eller plötsligt bli svagare under mitten och till sen Holocen. Det starka monsuninflytandet har ofta ändrats över tiden och har i sin tur påverkat både landskapet och växtligheten i sydost Asien. Den Indiska monsunen spelar en oerhört viktig roll för flera miljarder människor som är direkt eller indirekt beroende av regnens intensitet och regelbundenhet. Vår förståelse av de faktorer som styr abrupta förändringar i monsunsystemet är emellertid mycket begränsade.

In this project we want to develop pro-active management strategies for plant invasions in high-latitude mountains and protected areas, via an innovative approach that combines observational with experimental studies and directly uses their results in predictive models. By creatively using altitudinal gradients in a cross-continental study in the Swedish Scandes and the Chilean and Argentinian Andes, we aim at disentangling the roles of human-mediated and climatic factors in driving plant invasions. Via a novel method (combining high-resolution thermal images with precise species occurrence data) we will study which pathways nonnative species use for uphill migration. Further, we will compare management practices among the 3 countries to determine realistic and effective strategies per region. Our cross-continental approach will allow testing for universal patterns, which might significantly contribute to the research field of biological invasions. By creating a link between science and management for developing pro-active management practices for nonnative species, we believe this project will help to significantly reduce the costs for invasive species control. Lastly, this collaborative project will be an excellent framework to offer master students international research experience. Effekten av främmande arter på inhemsk biologisk mångfald anses vara ett av de främsta hoten mot jordens biologiska mångfald. På grund av ökande handel, resande och transporter har både avsiktliga och oavsiktliga introduktioner av arter bortom sina naturliga utbredningsområden blivit allt vanligare. Vissa främmande arter blir invasiva och kan drastiskt och permanent förändra inhemska ekosystem. Att kontrollera eller utrota dem innebär ofta stora ekonomiska kostnader. Trots att det här är ett globalt problem bedrivs den mesta forskningen om biologiska invasioner i industriländer, där antalet forskare och finansieringsmöjligheterna är störst. Bergsområden och naturreservat förtjänar särskild uppmärksamhet när det gäller växtinvasioner. Deras artrika och ofta orörda ekosystemen hyser stora naturvärden, och invasioner i sådana ekosystem är ofta svårhanterliga på grund av otillgänglig och svår terräng. Eftersom dessa ekosystem för närvarande utsätts för ett snabbt ökande antal främmande arter men ännu inte är kraftigt påverkade, erbjuder de en unik möjlighet till förebyggande åtgärder mot detta ökande hot. Sådana förebyggande åtgärder är särskilt viktiga i utvecklingsländer som Chile och Argentina, där antalet främmande arter är stort och resurserna för att förhindra invasioner och öka allmänhetens medvetande om problemen små. Syftet med detta projekt är att få djupgående förståelse för de generella processer som styr växtinvasioner i bergsområden, och att utveckla effektiva skötselstrategier för att minska risken för pågående och framtida invasioner av skyddade områden i bergsområden. Vi kommer att jobba på två kontinenter med både jämförande studier och experiment. Resultaten kommer att användas för att utveckla matematiska modeller för att förutsäga framtida spridning av arter. Vi kommer att använda fem främmande arter (rölleka, groblad, bergsyra, rödklöver och vitklöver) längs höjdgradienter i de svenska fjällen och i de chilenska och argentinska Anderna. Genom att använda samma arter i tre distinkta regioner kommer vi att kunna särskilja generella mönster från mönster som beror på lokala förhållanden. I varje land genomförs experiment där vi manipulerar graden av störning och fröspridning längs höjdgradienter (som simulerar uppvärmning av klimatet) för att förstå hur direkta mänskliga effekter (t.ex. störning från vägar) och klimatfaktorer styr växtinvasioner. Med hjälp av en ny metod (högupplösta termiska bilder kombinerat med precisa data på arters förekomster) kommer vi att undersöka med vilka spridningsvägar främmande arter når bergskedjorna. Vi förväntar oss att invasiva arter utnyttjar varmare mikroklimat. Vi kommer dessutom att fastställa hur historiska, sociala, politiska och ekonomiska skillnader mellan Sverige, Chile och Argentina påverkar nuvarande skötsel av främmande arter i skyddade områden, och hur inställningen till främmande arter skiljer sig mellan länderna. Detta kommer att bidra till att hitta realistiska och effektiva strategier för varje region, genom att lära av tidigare framgångar och misstag. Vi tror att detta projekt kommer att väsentligen förbättra vår förståelse för hur mänskliga och klimatiska faktorer påverkar växtinvasioner, och bidra till att förhindra och kontrollera dem. Genom att göra studien på flera kontinenter kan förståelsen för ett globalt fenomen som biologiska invasioner ökas avsevärt i och med att man kan visa på skillnader och likheter i invasionsprocessen mellan olika bergsområden. Genom att skapa en länk mellan forskning och skötsel för att utveckla de bästa (proaktiva) skötselmetoderna för främmande arter i skyddade områden på höga höjder och latituder, hoppas vi att drastiskt kunna minska kostnaderna för kontroll av främmande arter.

We have identified a severe disease, caused by a group of four Botryosphaeria fungi, as a main factor limiting the sustainable cultivation of the popular tree species. The fungi infect, in concert, and cause very severe and widespread disease on Grevillea robusta, Eucalyptus spp., Senna siamea and Azadiracta indica, all exotics in the region. The indigenous and drought resistant species, Melia volkensii seems resistant to the disease. The disease is most prevalent and severe in drylands. The complex nature of the disease poses interesting questions about the host-pathogen interactions, which require urgent attention. We aim to promote the use of disease resistant indigenous tree species in order to enhance sustainability of forestry and on-farm tree production in hot and dry areas. Tree species are being developed for drought tolerance in domestication programs in the region. We will examine the pathogenicity of the Botryosphaeria fungi to such tree species. It is important to identify tree species suited for drylands to increase the timber species for increased wood production, especially in the face of climate change predicted to aggravate aridity in the region. The project will consolidate collaboration of the project scientists and stakeholders through workshops and exchange visits. Skype and video conferences will be used to enhance project coordination and give quicker results. I Östafrika till skillnad från i Sverige är de träd som odlas i det småskaliga jordbruket och skogsbruket nästan bara främmande trädslag. Grevillea robusta (Grevillea) är böndernas viktigaste timmerträd i Kenya och trädarten ökar i användning i Uganda. Olika Eucalyptus arter (Eucalyptus) odlas i stor utsträcknig i större skogsplanteringar men också i liten skala hos bönder. Både Grevillea och Eucalyptus har nu drabbats allvarligt av en Botryosphaeria-sjukdom, som hotar odlingarna och innebär stora förluster för bönderna. Det visar sig också att ytterligare trädarter, som används av bönder, exoterna Senna siamea och Azadiracta indica är ungefär lika mottaglliga som Grevillea, medan det inhemska trädslaget Melia volkensii (Melia)är mycket motståndskraftigt. Under 2003 uppmärksammades en inte tidigare känd sjukdom på Grevillea. I Masaka distriktet i sydvästra Uganda var nästan 100 % av Grevillea- träden sjuka och döende på vissa gårdar. I det föreslagna projektet bygger vi på den kunskap som tidigare genomförda projekt givit med hjälp av anslag från Formas Sida-SAREC och genom Dr Njugunas (2011) doktorandprojekt på SLU, finanserat av Kenya Forest Research Institute, KEFRI. Vi visade att en ny kräftsårssjukdom drabbat Grevillea m. fl. arter, i Kenya, Uganda och Etiopien. Patogenitetstest har visat att det är en Botryospheria-sjukdom, som orsakas av minst fyra olika Botryosphaeria-arter, vilka angriper tillsammans (Njuguna 2011). Det finns sjuka och döende träd över stora områden.Värst drabbas Grevillea och även de andra undersökta arterna i torra och heta agroekologiska zoner. Eftersom Botryosphaeria-sjukdom hade rapporeterats förekomma på Eucalyptus gjorde vi provtagningar både på Grevillea och Eucalyptus. Det visade sig att sjukdomen på Eucalyptus också var mycket omfattande. Vi beslöt att göra ytterligare analyser på Eucalyptus-materialet, för att kunna göra nödvändiga populationsstudier av fyra patogena svamparter hos de olika träden. Resultaten förväntas ge oss svar på om Botryospheria komplexet är panafriskanskt eller östafrikanskt. Det har lett till att publiceringen försenats. Det övergripande målet med projektet är att befrämja användningen av sjukdomsresistenta inhemska trädslag för skogsbruk och trädodling på småskaliga jordbruk i Kenya och Uganda. Därför behöver vi utveckla samarbete mellan skogspatologi, skogskötsel och skogsträdsförädling. Medvetenheten om de sjukdomsrisker som följer med storskalig introduktion av främmande trädarter behöver öka. Med projektet avser vi 1) Att medverka till mer hållbar trädodling i torra områden med kunskaper om och tester av sjukdomsresistens . Det är av stor vikt att identifiera träd arter som passar i heta och torra områden, för att ersätta sjukdomskänsliga träd och för att öka virkesproduktionen. Behovet förstärks av nödvändigheten till anpassning till klimatförändringar, eftersom varma och torra områden antas öka. Det är nödvändigt att sjukdomsresistens blir en del i program för domenticering av inhemska trädarter, och för att det ska ske kommer vi att organisera seminarier och workshops. 2) Att identifiera sjukdomsresistenta trädarter för att ersätta de som angrips av sjukdomar i torra områden. För utveckling av mer hållbar virkesproduktion behövs tillförlitlig information om sjukdomsproblem. Botryosphaeria-sjukdomen angriper många arter och risken är stor att flera arter kan drabbas. Vi kommer att studera resistensen mot sjukdomen i inhemska träd som nu finns med i domesticeringsprogram för torktolerans. Melia, som nämnts ovan, är ett sjukdomsresistent inhemskt trädslag med hög torktolerans. Inhemskt trädslag är inte tillräckligt för att en trädart kan beräknas vara motsåndskraftigt, utan anpassning till de lokala förhållandena krävs också. 3) Att utveckla skogspatologin vidare genom ökad samverkan mellan östafrikanska och svenska forskare. Vi kommer att utveckla våra kontakter vidare, genom aktivt deltagande av alla inblandade i projektet.

Medvetenheten om de sjukdomsrisker som följer med storskalig introduktion av främmande trädarter behöver öka. Med projektet avser vi 1) Att medverka till mer hållbar trädodling i torra områden med kunskaper om och tester av sjukdomsresistens . Det är av stor vikt att identifiera träd arter som passar i heta och torra områden, för att ersätta sjukdomskänsliga träd och för att öka virkesproduktionen. Behovet förstärks av nödvändigheten till anpassning till klimatförändringar, eftersom varma och torra områden antas öka.

För utveckling av mer hållbar virkesproduktion behövs tillförlitlig information om sjukdomsproblem. Botryosphaeria-sjukdomen angriper många arter och risken är stor att flera arter kan drabbas. Vi kommer att studera resistensen mot sjukdomen i inhemska träd som nu finns med i domesticeringsprogram för torktolerans. Melia, som nämnts ovan, är ett sjukdomsresistent inhemskt trädslag med hög torktolerans. Inhemskt trädslag är inte tillräckligt för att en trädart kan beräknas vara motsåndskraftigt, utan anpassning till de lokala förhållandena krävs också. 3) Att utveckla skogspatologin vidare genom ökad samverkan mellan östafrikanska och svenska forskare.

We have identified a severe disease, caused by a group of four Botryosphaeria fungi, as a main factor limiting the sustainable cultivation of the popular tree species. The fungi infect, in concert, and cause very severe and widespread disease on Grevillea robusta, Eucalyptus spp., Senna siamea and Azadiracta indica, all exotics in the region. The indigenous and drought resistant species, Melia volkensii seems resistant to the disease. The disease is most prevalent and severe in drylands. The complex nature of the disease poses interesting questions about the host-pathogen interactions, which require urgent attention. We aim to promote the use of disease resistant indigenous tree species in order to enhance sustainability of forestry and on-farm tree production in hot and dry areas. Tree species are being developed for drought tolerance in domestication programs in the region. We will examine the pathogenicity of the Botryosphaeria fungi to such tree species. It is important to identify tree species suited for drylands to increase the timber species for increased wood production, especially in the face of climate change predicted to aggravate aridity in the region. The project will consolidate collaboration of the project scientists and stakeholders through workshops and exchange visits. Skype and video conferences will be used to enhance project coordination and give quicker results. I Östafrika till skillnad från i Sverige är de träd som odlas i det småskaliga jordbruket och skogsbruket nästan bara främmande trädslag. Grevillea robusta (Grevillea) är böndernas viktigaste timmerträd i Kenya och trädarten ökar i användning i Uganda. Olika Eucalyptus arter (Eucalyptus) odlas i stor utsträcknig i större skogsplanteringar men också i liten skala hos bönder. Både Grevillea och Eucalyptus har nu drabbats allvarligt av en Botryosphaeria-sjukdom, som hotar odlingarna och innebär stora förluster för bönderna. Det visar sig också att ytterligare trädarter, som används av bönder, exoterna Senna siamea och Azadiracta indica är ungefär lika mottaglliga som Grevillea, medan det inhemska trädslaget Melia volkensii (Melia)är mycket motståndskraftigt. Under 2003 uppmärksammades en inte tidigare känd sjukdom på Grevillea. I Masaka distriktet i sydvästra Uganda var nästan 100 % av Grevillea- träden sjuka och döende på vissa gårdar. I det föreslagna projektet bygger vi på den kunskap som tidigare genomförda projekt givit med hjälp av anslag från Formas Sida-SAREC och genom Dr Njugunas (2011) doktorandprojekt på SLU, finanserat av Kenya Forest Research Institute, KEFRI. Vi visade att en ny kräftsårssjukdom drabbat Grevillea m. fl. arter, i Kenya, Uganda och Etiopien. Patogenitetstest har visat att det är en Botryospheria-sjukdom, som orsakas av minst fyra olika Botryosphaeria-arter, vilka angriper tillsammans (Njuguna 2011). Det finns sjuka och döende träd över stora områden.Värst drabbas Grevillea och även de andra undersökta arterna i torra och heta agroekologiska zoner. Eftersom Botryosphaeria-sjukdom hade rapporeterats förekomma på Eucalyptus gjorde vi provtagningar både på Grevillea och Eucalyptus. Det visade sig att sjukdomen på Eucalyptus också var mycket omfattande. Vi beslöt att göra ytterligare analyser på Eucalyptus-materialet, för att kunna göra nödvändiga populationsstudier av fyra patogena svamparter hos de olika träden. Resultaten förväntas ge oss svar på om Botryospheria komplexet är panafriskanskt eller östafrikanskt. Det har lett till att publiceringen försenats.

Bacterial contamination of drinking water may be due to fecal contamination either from human and/or warm-blooded animals, or to bacteria from the soil. Indicator bacteria (e.g. E. coli or Enterococcus spp.) have been used for many years to monitor and to determine the quality and safety of water for consumption. In this collaborative study, we propose to evaluate new simplified methods for and to determine the extent of risk factors due to contamination of water used for consumption, and to investigate sewage from the community and from the hospital as potential vehicles of spread of pathogenic bacteria and antibiotic resistance in bacteria in a Nicaraguan community. By analyzing indicator bacteria, particularly E. coli and Enterococci, with the aid of biochemical fingerprinting (PhenePlate system), screening for antibiotic resistance (AREB system) and molecular (PCR or qPCR) analysis we will be able to monitor the presence of antibiotic resistant or pathogenic strains, and to follow the spread of bacteria from animals/humans to surface and well water. Our results and experiences will be presented in two courses in Leon, Nicaragua, open to Latin-American countries. This spread knowledge will form an embryo to increased measures against infant (diarrheal) diseases due to poor hygienic conditions as well as to the global galloping spread of antibiotic resistance. Ytvatten kan innehålla bakterier som härrör från tarmfloran hos människor och djur. Dessa bakterier kan nå ytvattnet via avloppsvatten från sjukhus och kommuner eller via naturgödsel och eftersom framför allt avloppsvatten utgör en viktig reservoar för sjukdomsframkallande och/eller antibiotikaresistenta bakterier är det mycket allvarligt om en vidare spridning till dricksvatten sker. Målsättningen med projektet är att utvärdera en kombination av nya, förenklade metoder för att med begränsade laboratorieresurser studera spridning av sjukdomsframkallande och/eller resistenta bakterier från avloppsvatten eller naturgödsel till ytvatten och vidare till livsmedelskedjan i ett samhälle (León) i Nicaragua. Vi kommer att ta prover från avlopp, gödsel, ytvatten och dricksvatten i León, Nicaragua. Proverna skall analyseras med molekylärbiologiska metoder (PCR, qPCR) för förekomst av diarréframkallande kolibakterier (E.coli), och screenas för förekomst av antibiotikaresistenta indikatorbakterier (Enterokocker och kolibakterier) och diversiteten hos dessa bestäms med hjälp av på KI utvecklade förenklade mikroplattbaserade screeningmetoder (AREB och PhP). Resultat av projektet blir en enkel standardiserad metod för provtagning och analys av spridning av kliniskt relevanta bakterier i miljön. Vi kommer också att få information om huruvida antibiotikaresistenta bakterier i avlopp/gödsel speglar resistensläget hos bakterier hos människa och djur, samt om avloppsvatten innehåller en pool av resistenta bakteriestammar som kan spridas i samhället. Våra data kan också få stor betydelse för framtida åtgärder då det gäller säker hantering av avloppsvatten och andra avfallsprodukter som innehåller stora mängder bakterier i denna typ av samhällen. Våra erfarenheter skall bl.a. presenteras vid två kurser som vi ämnar hålla i Nicaragua i slutet av projektet. Kurserna kommer att vara öppna för deltagare från de latinamerikanska länderna. Kurserna kommer att bilda ett embryo till en framtida harmonisering av de viktiga ansträngningarna att minska (diarré)sjukdomar hos fr. a. barn och att minska spridningen av antibiotikaresistens i u-land.

Vi kommer också att få information om huruvida antibiotikaresistenta bakterier i avlopp/gödsel speglar resistensläget hos bakterier hos människa och djur, samt om avloppsvatten innehåller en pool av resistenta bakteriestammar som kan spridas i samhället. Våra data kan också få stor betydelse för framtida åtgärder då det gäller säker hantering av avloppsvatten och andra avfallsprodukter som innehåller stora mängder bakterier i denna typ av samhällen. Våra erfarenheter skall bl.a. presenteras vid två kurser som vi ämnar hålla i Nicaragua i slutet av projektet. Kurserna kommer att vara öppna för deltagare från de latinamerikanska länderna. Kurserna kommer att bilda ett embryo till en framtida harmonisering av de viktiga ansträngningarna att minska (diarré)sjukdomar hos fr. a. barn och att minska spridningen av antibiotikaresistens i u-land.

The collaborative project will lay the foundation for developing adaptive forest landscape restoration approaches through establishment of permanent plots and monitoring development of secondary forests on degraded and abandoned landscape; and identifying indicator species and testing different site amendment measures for reclamation of mining waste lands on the Copperbelt in Zambia. It will be implemented through experience sharing during the design of the studies, discussing technical findings and visits.

Restaurering av skogar och landskap i Zambia: Utmaningar och framtidsutsikter Restaurering av skogar och landskap har fått stor global uppmärksamhet under de senaste tio åren. Restaurering bidrar till att återställa ekosytemens struktur och funktion och ökar samtidigt lokalbefolkningens försörjningsmöjligheter. Området har hög prioritet i Afrika, däribland i Zambia, och är ett av fem temaområden inom Sveriges politik för globala utveckling som fastställts av Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet. De stora områden som utarmats i Zambia till följd av träkolproduktion, skiftesbruk och gruvdrift ger oss en möjlighet att studera och utveckla nya och effektiva restaureringsmetoder. Samarbetsprojektetet kommer att lägga grunden för utveckling av adaptiva restaureringsmetoder i skogar och landskap i Zambia genom etablering av permanenta försöksytor där de sekundära skogarnas utveckling kan studeras, indikatorarter kan identifieras och testas så att restaureringen av kopparbältet i Zambia påskyndas. Det kommer att ge ett bättre vetenskapliga underlag för beslutsfattare, miljöövervakare och allmänhet så att restaureringen av utarmade områden effektiviseras och förvaltning av de sekundära skogarna blir mera hållbar. Resultaten kommer även att utgöra en bas för forskarutbildning vid de båda universiteten och bidra till utvecklingen av restaureringsmodeller som kan tillämpas i liknande områden i regionen eller på andra håll i världen.

We will explore why divided cities seem particularly resistant to peacebuilding efforts, why prolonged urban partition seems to give rise to new conflicts, and how peace can be built in contested urban environments. The combination of in-depth case studies and cross-case comparisons based on extensive fieldwork in Nairobi, Sarajevo and Jerusalem will contribute to develop a theoretical framework for peacebuilding in contested cities, break new empirical ground and generate research-based policy recommendations on challenges and possibilities of urban peacebuilding.

Different arthropod vectors also play a crucial role for viral spread, its maintenance in nature and disease spread. Using viral metagenomics we will in Mozambique investigate the pathogens circulating in the wildlife-livestock interface to allow for a better preparedness for future livestock EIDs and by identifying reservoirs for known pathogens we will also increase the understanding of how to control viral/disease spread. As it is important to get the technology in common use in regions where disease are most probable to occur and where they can have greatest impact when it comes to agriculture, trade and food security we will also transfer the technology to the researchers in Mozambique.

This is the focus of CES-CliM; a transdisciplinary project uniting researchers from Sweden, Kenya, Tanzania & Mozambique. We will conduct a field survey in a 4000km natural climate gradient to assess the relative effect of local area-based management on 3 key services from seagrass beds and coral reefs; fish production, shoreline protection & carbon trapping. We will then use satellite remote sensing to test if management has moderated effects of past ocean warming on these services. Finally, we will construct a predictive model to assess how key services could change over the next century, given realistic scenarios of climate warming and improved coastal area management. Thus, CES-CliM will help improve societal capacity to adapt to and develop with changing climate.

Production of livestock based food in the city is a good opportunity for them to generate incomes. But, there is an increased risk of transmission of zoonotic diseases from livestock to humans and the manure handling do posses an environmental/sanitary and public health risk as well. Usually, regulations for keeping livestock in cities lag behind in developing economies. In this project, to be performed in Phnom Penh in Cambodia, we combine social and veterinary science to analyse and balance the pros and cons for livestock in the city taking gender dynamics into account. These analyses will be compared with existing regulations and then possible interventions will be presented to the Cambodian stakeholders for consideration.

But, there is an increased risk of transmission of zoonotic diseases from livestock to humans and the manure handling do posses an environmental/sanitary and public health risk as well. Usually, regulations for keeping livestock in cities lag behind in developing economies. In this project, to be performed in Phnom Penh in Cambodia, we combine social and veterinary science to analyse and balance the pros and cons for livestock in the city taking gender dynamics into account. These analyses will be compared with existing regulations and then possible interventions will be presented to the Cambodian stakeholders for consideration.

Peacebuilding efforts often produce disappointing results for sustainable peace. Answering to a common critic of shallowness, this project will study the experience and possibility of explicitly grounding peacebuilding efforts in the local government context. 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. The overall aim is to draw conclusions of relevance both for policy and theory-building regarding the grounding and localizing of peacebuilding efforts and the possible effects that it might have.

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.

We have previously isolated a unique species of bacteria, Thorsellia anophelis, from Anopheles gambiae in Mbita in Kenya. Two recent studies have shown that bacteria belonging to the Thorsellia genus dominate An. gambiae gut flora in two other localities in, Kenya. Unpublished data show that T. anophelis also exist in the major malaria vectors of South America and Asia. We have genome sequenced the type isolate from Kenya and plan to genetically modify this bacteria with GFP to follow its dynamics in the mosquito gut. We will also investigate the seasonal dynamics of Thorsellia in mosquitoes and their breeding waters in Kenya.

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.

To develop and improve miombo production systems there is need for both broadened and deepened understanding of present land use, forest ecology, forest products economy, and related social and economic structures on process scale and up-scaled in the landscape. Tightly coupled to this is the analysis on the appropriateness and sustainability of different C-sequestration and C-trade mechanisms and land use forest management in relation to adaptation to climate vulnerability. Tanzania is chosen because of significantly heightened interest in the forest sector, but the suggested research will be applicable for the larger miombo area as well as for dry land Africa at large.

Focus is on understanding the impact of the current extreme weather patterns on these mechanisms, the fishers response, and the implications for livelihood and resource use. Attention is paid to gender relations at household and community level. The study draws on vulnerability and resilience studies and employs various methods such as household survey interviews, participatory methods, and observation. The study will present an in-depth understanding of the dynamics of fishers traditional coping mechanisms and propose suggestions as to how this understanding could be used as a basis for developing alternative coping strategies to future climate changes in the basin.

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.

Still, regional-scale climate and hydrological reconstructions are sparse in these regions, and available records are often contradictory, lacking quantitative proxies. The main focus of the proposed project is to reconstruct climate and vegetation change in south-eastern Africa, an area where high-quality paleo-records are extremely sparse. Our objectives are to: 1) generate quantitative records of past hydrological change, such as rainfall seasonality and variability, and thereby detect past large-scale atmospheric circulation dynamics, and 2) reconstruct temperature-related fluxes in the vegetation cover, particularly within the grassland biome. Methodical applications involve new powerful bio-chemical technology; hydrogen (dD) and carbon (d13C) isotope analysis on plant-derived biomarkers, so called n-alkanes, that will be extracted from available, well-dated, sediment cores from lakes and wetlands in South Africa and Mozambique. Biomarker screening, i.e. analysing the inherent concentration of each n-alkane, will assist in interpretation and evaluation of the isotope records. A generous dating approach will optimize inter-data comparison and reveal important regional climate excursions with up to decadal age-accuracy during the last 18 000 years that our records embrace. This anthropological project focuses on identity formation among refugees, in particular among refugee youth, in relation to an ongoing humanitarian intervention. Taking the case of UN-run education in the Palestinian occupied territories, the project wishes to investigate long-term and large-scale intervention and its local responses. The overall aim is to understand and analyze local experiences of and responses to two programs in UNRWA schools (i.e. Human Rights Education and Respect and Discipline in Violence Free Schools) and how refugees relate those to national identity-formation, state-building, national independence and international understandings of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The study will provide new ethnographic data about camp life and refugee schooling and theoretical insights about identity formation in relation to aid intervention and refugee labelling.

Information regarding the distribution of flow pathways and groundwater recharge derived from these investigations will be used to constrain process-based hydrologic modelling such that it is relevant for conditions occurring in KV and similar regions. This provides a tool to aid development in Tanzania capable of quantifying impacts of various land-water management strategies under potential climatic changes. The goal of this project is to model the hydrological impacts of land-water management on water resources in Tanzania. This will aid development by making it possible to quantify future impacts of various management strategies on water resources.

The World Bank estimates that close to 6 million ha of land are required each year until 2030 for biofuel production only. However, when it comes to house hold level impacts of this relatively new phenomenon, little empirical evidence exists. This research will look at the example of large scale biofuel production in Tanzania. The focus will be on house hold and village level impacts on food production, food prices and nutritional levels as well as wage and contractual labour as a way of offsetting economic and social exclusion. The results will also be applicable for a wider understanding of local impacts of large scale land acquisition for agro development. Thus, it can contribute to the enhancement of positive impacts and mitigation of negative impacts in future investments.

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 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.

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.

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.

The potential of investments in natural resources in reducing poverty and bringing about sustainable development is increasingly getting attention. Past experience shows that there is a risk that large scale interventions in natural resource management may fail to bring desired outcomes if they are not supported by well-functioning local institutions characterized by cooperation and coordination among rural households. This project aims to explore key aspects of cooperation and coordination problems related to natural resource management, and to develop knowledge for the design of local institutions that make interventions work. Using a mix of survey data, lab experiments and field experiments, we will explore aspects of local institutions that are relevant both to interventions targeted at privately managed resources (e.g. farm land) and interventions that are targeted at resources managed by the community (e.g. forests). Our research program sheds light on some of the complexities of rural socio-economic systems and fills important knowledge gaps. Our over-arching goal is to provide valuable inputs into the design of institutions that support government and donor efforts to improve the quality of natural resources, supporting the livelihoods of poor people and improving the trust in communities. Utformning av institutioner som främjar samarbete och förbättrad skötsel av naturresurser: Fältexperiment i Etiopien. Hundratals miljoner människor i Afrika söder om Sahara är beroende av naturresurser för sitt levebröd. Många lever på små jordbruk som är utsatta för jorderosion och allt mer påverkade av klimatförändringar. Många är också beroende av allmänningar för brännved, bete till sina djur etc. Trots många insatser under årens lopp så har jordbruksproduktiviteten inte ökat nämnvärt i Afrika, småbönder tar inte till sig av ny teknik och många allmänningar förstörs. När nu världen vaknat upp och stora resurser satsas på dessa resurser så är det viktigt att förstå hur man bäst kan använda dem. Medan tidigare forskning främst inriktat sig på genetisk utveckling av grödor, olika markvårdsåtgärder och investeringar i insatsvaror så föreslår vi i denna studie en mer beteendevetenskaplig ansats. Utmaningen är att förstå vad som gör att människor kan samverka i att pröva sig fram till nya jordbruksmetoder och gemensamt sköta sina allmänningar. Hur kan institutioner utformas för att skapa sådant samarbete och på samma gång förbättra tilliten i samhället? I projektet studerar vi detta inom ramen för tre teman. I det första analyserar vi situationen där en bonde vinner på att åka snålskjuts på andra bönders experimenterande av nya jordbruksmetoder. Om alla väntar på alla andra så försenas användandet av de nya metoderna. Vi kommer att studera under vilka situationer detta är ett problem och hur man kan underlätta gemensamt lärande. I det andra temat studerar vi hur institutioner kan öka samarbetet kring skötseln av allmänningar. Allmänningar kan lätt överutnyttjas men Nobelpristagaren Elinor Ostrom visade att det finns många exempel på hur grupper själva skött allmänningar hållbart under lång tid. Vi bygger vidare på denna forskning och designar fältexperiment för att öka förståelsen för hur denna typ av institutioner kan skapas och upprätthållas. I ett tredje tema analyserar vi hur utformningen av institutioner för genomförande av markreformer kan uppmuntra till samarbete och därmed minska kostnaden för reformen på samma gång som man ökar tilliten i samhället. Detta baserar sig på tidigare forskning i gruppen men kräver ytterligare studier innan den kan ligga till grund för förändringar av existerande regelverk. Forskningen behandlar ett antal centrala frågor för Etiopiens utvecklingspolitik. Etiopiska regeringen satsar för tillfället, tillsammans med ett antal stora bidragsgivare, miljardbelopp på hållbar landsbygdsutveckling.

However, as part of climate change there is likely to be a large rise in the height at which clouds form along mountains, meaning that large areas of cloud forest may suddenly face unusually dry, cloudless conditions. Since these systems have rarely experienced any water shortage they may not be able to adapt, with poorly understood but probably large consequences for forest ecosystem services. We will install the first ever *cloud reduction* experiment to create these predicted future conditions in a patch of cloud forest in the Peruvian Andes. Large mesh nets surrounding the forest patch will intercept airborne water particles, reducing these inputs to the forest inside. Changes in (1) water inputs to the forest from different pathways, (2) populations of plants and soil microbes and (3) carbon stored in plant biomass and released as carbon dioxide will be recorded over time within the cloud reduction forest and a nearby unmodified plot.

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. För att fylla denna kunskapslucka kommer vi att installera det första molnreducerande experimentet någonsin. Detta experiment syftar till att skapa de förutspådda framtida förhållandena i en molnskog i Anderna i Peru, Sydamerika. Stora nät som omringar en del av skogen kommer att fånga upp de små vattenpartiklarna i molnen och därmed minska tillförseln av molnvatten till skogen inuti nätet. Förändringar över tiden i (1) de olika banor vattentillförseln till skogen tar, (2) populationer av växter och mikroorganismer och (3) kol lagrat i växtbiomassa och frigjort i form av koldioxid kommer att mätas och jämföras mellan skogen där molntäcket är reducerat och i en närliggande icke manipulerad skogsyta. Detta arbete kommer att ge oss den första kompletta bilden av framtida effekter av en stigande molnbas på molnskogars biodiversitet, hydrologi och kolbinding. Denna information är ett viktigt verktyg för lokala populationer som förlitar sig på vattenförsörjning från molnskogar. Dessutom är den av stor betydelse för det flertalet tropiska länder som vill skydda dessa skogar och de tjänster de tillhandahåller under en framtida klimatförändring.

The Portuguese who leave for Angola and Cape 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/Cape Verdeans they meet in their working life. Furthermore the project analyses how these Angolans and Cape 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.

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.

Smallholders keeping small ruminants, mostly women, are one key driver in poverty alleviation in many regions of the world, but infectious diseases, such as PPR, represent serious threats to further development of the smallholder production. PPR is spreading rapidly despite availability of vaccines and diagnostic tests. The role of wildlife in PPR epidemiology is still uncertain. The overall purpose of the proposed project is to ascertain the current situation of PPR virus (PPRV) in both domestic and wild small ruminants in Tanzania and Pakistan by bringing a multidisciplinary and multinational team of scientists together. Through this project, data will be collected on the epidemiology and risk factors related to PPRV infected livestock and wildlife from study locations and experimental infections. Genetic factors of PPRV and its hosts associated with disease susceptibility will be monitored by molecular epidemiology based on full genome sequencing, transcriptomic analysis of global host response, and functional studies to understand molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis in a host and species dependent manner. Such knowledge is fundamental to devise better vaccines and to facilitate control strategies against PPRV. 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. Förhoppningsvis kan denna förödande sjukdom som drabbar de fattigaste så hårt så småningom utrotas.

Studien syftar till att fokusera på hur samhälleliga konfliktfrågor inverkar på olika fredsutbildningar som utgår från kontakthypotesen och mer långsiktiga processer i sin utbildningsstrategi. Utgångspunkten är att när en tredje utomstående part medlar i projekt som pågår över en längre tid där den makro-samhälleliga konflikten kan balanseras går det att skapa nya hållbara relationer mellan individer och grupper som varit i konflikt med varandra. Den generella frågan är: till vilken grad kan fredsutbildningsprojekt skapa hållbara relationer mellan deltagarna? För att bättre förstå hur delade samhällens sociala konflikter inverkar på utbildningarna genomförs jämförelser med olika typer av konflikter. De som har våldsamma omständigheter (Israel-Palestina) och de som haft en lång men svår fredsprocess som i Makedonien och Rwanda). Tanken är att pröva vilken validitet kontakthypotesen har, dvs vid kontakt med motparten skall positiva attityder och relationer utvecklas mellan konfliktparter. Undersökningen kommer att genomföras genom att undersöka samspelet mellan relationen på mikro-nivån (utbildningsprojektet), meso-nivån (utbildningsupplägget) och makro-nivån (externa konflikterna i samhället) utspelas och påverkar möjligheten att skapa nya hållbara relationer inom fredsutbildningen.

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.

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.

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. Dessutom representerar länderna olika slags regimtyper där Uganda fortfarande väntar på övergången till demokrati, Pakistan är en mycket ung och svag demokrati, och Indien som har en mer djupt rotad demokratisk tradition. I de genomförda studierna har attityder hos medborgarna undersökts med djupintervjuer och omfattande attitydundersökningar. Dessa har lett fram till de resultat som vi här ska undersöka mer på djupet: orsaken till varför en del medborgare utvecklar starkt intoleranta värderingar som är mycket svåra at ändra på.

För att öka våra möjligheter att bygga stabila demokratier i postkonfliktsamhällen är det därför viktigt att förstå när och varför DK försöker att säkerhetisera krigsidentiteter; definierat som talhandlingar och valbeteende vars målsättning är att krigsdrabbade grupper förblir polariserade och lever i rädsla för varandra. Projektet avser att undersöka denna fråga genom att jämföra sex DK i Liberia och Sierra Leone. Vi argumenterar att det framförallt är DK som har förlorat sin position som förmedlare av ekonomiskt stöd, mellan fredsmäklare och lokala samhällen, under demokratiseringsprocesser som söker att säkerhetisera krigsidentiteter. För att undersöka förklaringsvärdet av denna hypotes kommer vi att samla empiriskt material med hjälp av social nätverksanalys och djupintervjuer med centrala aktörer i Liberia och Sierra Leone, samt textanalys av uttalanden som DK har gjort i lokala dagstidningar.

This is between the indigenous Tanzanian language Ngoni and Swahili, the high status language of the nation. The setting is the Ruvuma region of southwestern Tanzania. The overriding purpose of the study is to develop criteria and a methodology for answering the question of when code switching language use is a sign of identity creation, identity loss, or identity compensation, a process of language loss, or perhaps something else. To answer these research questions 24 informants (12 young and 12 older persons) in two different settings in the Songea area will be recorded during three periods of fieldwork, individually and in a separate focus group session. Notes will be taken and a follow-up interview conducted, followed by both a quantitative and a qualitative analysis. Social constructionist theory provides a framework for the study. The research is influenced by earlier sociolinguistic research on language seen both as a social practice and as a symbolic system through which identity is created within a setting where language shift may be threatening. Thus, the study provides new methods and new data for understanding changing language patterns in a language contact situation. Projektet *Språkligt utanförskap - identitetens betydelse i ett utvecklingsperspektiv* önskar studera varför människor i Ruvuma-regionen i sydvästra Tanzania kodväxlar, dvs alternerar mellan två koder, swahili och ngoni, som är modersmål för de flesta som bor i området. På grund av Tanzanias språkpolitik som upphöjde swahili till kommunikationsspråk över hela Tanzania efter självständigheten används swahili idag inom de flesta domäner, även i avlägsna områden långt borta från de kustområden nära Zanzibar där språket har sitt ursprung. Detta är en situation som är olik de flesta andra afrikanska länder som valde europeiska språk som officiella språk. Swahili påverkar idag både status och användning av alla de ungefär 150 tanzaniska språk som finns. Många av dessa är på väg att försvinna. Hur man använder språk är beroende av sociala faktorer och talarnas identitet, både den egna individuella identiteten och språkgruppens kollektiva identitet. I ett samhälle där ett inhemskt språk finns i en kontaktsituation med ett annat språk med högre status, som här swahili, är frågan om växlingen mellan ngoni och swahili är ett uttryck för att talare av ngoni inte längre kan uttrycka sig tillräckligt bra på sitt modersmål eller om deras kodväxling signalerar något annat. Kan det exempelvis vara ett sätt att uttrycka gruppidentitet - eller rent av flera identiteter samtidigt? Inom ramen för projektet kommer fokus att ligga på hur ngoni-talare kodväxlar och om det i språksituationen finns processer som bidrar till bevarandet av modersmålet och om hur ngonitalarens attityder påverkar språkanvändning. Dessa frågor är av stor betydelse för samhällsutveckling och utvecklingsfrågor i stort och för vår förståelse av sociala förändringar. En övergripande målsättning för hela projektet är dessutom att utveckla kriterier och metoder för att besvara dessa och andra frågor om identitetsskapande och förändringar i språk. Arbetet med min doktorsavhandling och även senare forskning har inriktats mot en utveckling av en sådan metodik. Inga skrivna texter finns på ngoni. Inom ramen för projektet kommer därför tal av 24 ngonitalande personer (informanter) i två byar i Songea-området i sydvästra Tanzania, som ligger drygt 100 mil från Dar es Salaam, att spelas in. Informanterna kommer at väljas utifrån ålder (gammal-ung) och bostadsort (lite större by/mycket liten by). Intervjuerna kommer att omfatta vissa i förväg bestämda teman och kommer att spelas in. Intervjuerna görs individuellt och som ett fokusgruppssamtal där tre personer deltar. Efter inspelningarna kommer en intervju som följer en specifik intervjuguide att göras med varje deltagare. De medverkande intervjuas bl.a. om attityder till språk och faktorer med relevans för identitet. Dessutom ska även de intervjuade själva uppskatta sin kodväxling och vad som hänt språkligt under inspelningen. Denna intervju kommer att ingå i- och jämföras med analysen av den faktiska kodväxlingen med utgångspunkt i data från inspelningarna. Tidigare forskning av sökanden (bl. a i ett postdoktor-projekt om ordlån från Swahili till Ngoni samt en skolundersökning av elevers språkliga bakgrund) har visat att mer än 50 % av barnen lär swahili redan innan de börjar skolan och där de blir undervisade enbart på swahili, och att swahili är mycket närvarande i deras dagliga liv, även i hemmet. Mot denna bakgrund är det av största vikt att undersöka hur ngonitalare använder språken och vad detta språkbruk med kodväxling innebär för dem och deras kollektiva identitet - och på längre sikt även deras framtid. Samtidigt ger en sådan studie generella insikter och kunskap som berör alla mångspråkiga nationer, det vill säga majoriteten av världens länder. Språk är en resurs som är ojämnt fördelad i samhället. Talare av minoritetsspråk har inte samma språkliga rättigheter som talare av nationella och officiella språk.

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 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.

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. Vi kommer att förutom vanlig diagnostik av HIV och STI även undersöka virologiska och immunologiska orsaker till den lägre sjukdo 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 Guinea-Bissau STD control including HIV/AIDS Population Policies/Programmes & Reproductive Health Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2013-6541-1 Sweden We will establish a collaboration with ENDA (environmental and development action in the third world), a NGO based in Dakar, Senegal, and strengthen their ongoing intervention project among female sex workers (FSWs) and men who have sex with men (MSM) in Guinea-Bissau.

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. Vi kommer att förutom vanlig diagnostik av HIV och STI även undersöka virologiska och immunologiska orsaker till den lägre sjukdo Sweden Lunds universitet The Swedish Research Council Lunds 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 1196000 921000 921000 3038000 Lunds universitet 1196000 Lunds universitet 921000 Lunds universitet 921000 Lunds universitet SE-0-SE-29-2013-6545 Sweden In many African countries, HIV/AIDS indicators have improved. But the achievements are now in jeopardy due to lack of resources. This project aims at improving our understanding of the determinants of HIV in Sub-Saharan Africa, focusing on economic status and inequality and intimate partner violence (IPV), and mechanisms at work. This knowledge is essential for designing better prevention programs. Questions about socioeconomic status will be addressed using two data sets. South African National HIV surveys combined with population census data at the community level, and a unique panel from rural KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa, available annually from 2003 to 2012. The richness of the two databases makes it possible to evaluate several mechanisms, ranging from poor health to risky sexual behavior. Few studies have used these data because of limited public access. Questions about IPV will be addressed using the Demographic and Health Surveys that have both HIV status and violence data. We will use the many IPV questions to improve the measures of IPV; former studies use crude ones, ignoring that IPV combined with control behavior seems to affect women strongly, while other types of violence are less harmful. To disentangle mechanisms, we will use knowledge about the HIV status of the husbands (and wives), and the characteristics of violent men. When available, information about men?s childhood experience of violence will be used as an instrument for IPV. Kampen mot hiv och aids har gjort stora framsteg, men risken för bakslag är stor. Antalet nya infektioner är fortsatt högt och inom ett par år kommer resurser för att fortsätta nuvarande insatser att saknas. Det är därför av vikt att utveckla mer effektiva strategier samt att förbättra befintliga program. Hittills har hiv program huvudsakligen fokuserat på individuella faktorer, så som kondomanvändning och hivtester. Under senare år har dock avsaknaden av strukturella faktorer i programmen betonats. Strukturella faktorer är orsaker som ligger utanför den enskilda individens kontroll, såsom undernäring, brist på sjukvård och samhälleliga normer. Det råder stor enighet om att det krävs större fokusering på strukturella faktorer, men samtidigt råder det oenighet om vilka faktorer som är viktiga och hur orsak-verkan sambanden ser ut. Syftet med vårt projekt är att analysera två typer av strukturella faktorer till HIV i Afrika, som båda har ansetts vara av stor betydelse; socioekonomisk status och våld i nära relationer. Socioekonomisk status inkluderar frågor om vilken roll fattigdom, skolutbildning, inkomstskillnader, mm. spelar för spridingen av hiv. Under lång tid ansågs fattigdom vara en viktig faktor, men forskning har visat att i fattiga afrikanska länder så är relativt välbeställda oftare smittade. Ett problem med dessa studier är att de rikaste länderna i Afrika, bl.a. Sydafrika, inte har ingått i studierna. Och i Sydafrika är det tydligt att många fattiga är hiv-positiva. Det har gjorts få studier på ekonomisk ojämlikhet och hiv, men de visar på ett tydligt samband. De har också visats att välbeställda oftare är smittade i fattiga områden, medan fattiga oftare är smittade i välbeställda områden. Den tidigare forskningen är inte överens om varför socioekonomisk status påverkar hiv smitta. En hypotes är att det är relaterat till dålig motståndskraft pga. undernäring och andra sjukdomer. Dåliga framtidsutsikter kan också leda till ett ökat sexuellt riskbeteende. Så kallade transaktionssex, dvs. relationer där kvinnan får gåvor och ekonomisk kompensation i utbyte emot sex, tros också påverkas av socioekonomisk status. Våld i nära relationer anses av många vara en viktig riskfaktor för hiv. Enligt UNAIDS orsakas en av sju infektioner i Sydafrika av våld i nära relationer. De flesta studier har dock gjorts på små urval av kvinnor som besöker kliniker. Det finns en bra men liten longitudinell studie på sydafrikanska data och fyra studier på nationellt representativa afrikanska data, som ger motsägande resultat. Till detta ska tilläggas att program för att minska HIV genom att minska kvinnovåldet inte verkar ha fungerat. Det finns flera troliga skäl till de svaga resultaten. Ett är att måtten på våld är för grova. Ingen studie definierar våld i nära relationer enligt senare tids forskning som visar att det är våld som syftar till kontroll av kvinnan som har stora negativa effekter. Mycket av det våld som rapporteras beror på gräl som spårar ur och där det inte finns en tydlig mansdominans. Ett annat skäl är att man inte analyserat hur våld orsakar hiv.

We have recently completed the NeoKIP (Neonatal health - Knowledge Into Practice) trial, a community-based participatory intervention that resulted in a 50% reduction in neonatal mortality in 44 Viet Namese communes. In NeoKIP, laywomen from the local Women?s Union acted as facilitators, supporting local stakeholder groups in improving perinatal health. Facilitators stimulated group-members to have a useful dialogue in applying a structured approach to identify problems and accomplish actions using the PDSA-cycle. Similar to other community-based trials we found that this bottom-up-strategy preferably should be combined with efforts to improve service-delivery at hospitals. The aim of NeoKIP+ is to analyse the effectiveness of facilitation of community-level maternal-and-newborn stakeholder groups, and similar groups of staff at district hospitals, on neonatal mortality in six provinces in Viet Nam. Secondary aims include the influence of the health system context on the process of change. The project is implemented in six provinces (28 districts) with neonatal mortality 24/1000 by a randomly allocated stepped-wedge design; birth and neonatal death monitoring is maintained over the total project duration of 4 years. This project will provide answers whether this kind of intervention is appropriate for scale-up in countries like Viet Nam. Det finns enkla och kostnadseffektiva åtgärder som kan förebygga upp till 70% av den globala dödligheten under den första levnadsmånaden. Även om den medicinska kunskapen finns, föreligger det en enorm kunskapsbrist om hur kunskapen ska omsättas i praktiken. I Viet Nam föreligger det stora geografiska och sociala skillnader i nyföddas överlevnad som behöver tacklas med lokala initiativ för att öka såväl vårdutnyttjande som vårdkvalitet. Vi har nyligen avslutat en befolkningsbaserad intervention för förbättrad överlevnad av nyfödda (NeoKIP trial, Neonatal Knowledge Into Practice) i en Viet Namesisk provins där forskare från Quang Ninh-provinsen och hälsoministeriet har samarbetat med forskare från Sverige. Interventionen bestod av understödjande av lokala grupper med representanter från primärhälsovården, Viet Nams nationella kvinnoorganisation samt lokala politiker. Grupperna möttes en gång i månaden för att identifiera lokala problem kring hälsa och vård för gravida, födande kvinnor och de nyfödda barnen samt vägar att åtgärda de identifierade problemen. Gruppens arbete understöddes av en person från kvinnoorganisationen som utbildats i att underlätta denna typ av förändringsarbete (så kallad faciliterare), en metod som visat sig vara framgångsrik i Sydasien. En skillnad är att forskarna i studierna i Sydasien riktade sig direkt till de gravida kvinnorna medan vi riktade oss till personal vid vårdcentralen och lokala beslutsfattare. Efter tre års arbete hade dödligheten under nyföddhetsperioden minskat med 50% i de kommuner där NeoKIP metoden användes jämfört med kontrollområdet. Hälsoministeriet och det Pediatriska Institutet i Hanoi har nu uttryckt starkt intresse av en utvidgning av denna satsning. Det finns inga tidigare forskningsrapporter med positiva resultat av en storskalig insats av detta slag. Vi söker nu medel för att genomföra en utvärdering av en uppskalning av NeoKIP interventionen. Det nu planerade projektet ska implementeras i sex fattiga provinser (i totalt 28 distrikt) med hög nyföddhetsdödlighet. Området har 40,000 förlossningar per år med dödlighet under nyföddhetsperioden kring 24/1000 levande födda. Interventionen består av: 1) NeoKIP metoden, dvs införandet av arbetsgrupper på vårdcentraler, och 2) liknande arbetsgrupper som i NeoKIP införs nu också på distriktssjukhus. Arbetet i dessa olika grupper kommer att understödjas av faciliterare från kvinnoorganisationen (kommunnivå) och från provinsens Centrum för Reproduktiv Hälsa (distriktssjukhus). De Nationella Riktlinjerna för Reproduktiv Hälsa (från hälsoministeriet) kommer att användas som underlag för att uppnå förbättringar. Hälsosystemets kontext kommer att bedömas ?diagnostiskt? genom ett nyutvecklat enkätinstrument. I alla inkluderade distrikt kommer interventionen pågå under totalt 18 månader, men tiden för start av interventionen i ett visst distrikt kommer bestämmas slumpmässigt, i en så kallad stepped wedge design. Efter de 18 månaderna med facilitering förväntas arbetsmetoden permanentas. Datainsamling planeras pågå i ytterligare en tid för att studera varaktigheten av interventionens effekter. Studien är dimensionerad för att kunna säkerställa en nedgång av nyföddas dödlighet med minst 4/1000 levande födda. Datainsamlingen är baserad på multipla informationskällor inklusive månatliga intervjuer med byhälsovårdare och sjukvårdspersonal på olika nivåer för att få heltäckande data om förlossningar och överlevnad av nyfödda.

We will use a combination of water balance measurements and isotopic tracers to infer groundwater recharge processes, which will be related to tree cover characteristics through remote sensing and spatial analysis.

Lagom är bäst - ny förståelse av träd kan ge mer vatten och jordbruksproduktion i tropikerna I det här projektet vill vi klargöra under vilka förhållanden fler träd både kan binda mer kol och bidra till mer grundvatten, som i sin tur ökar produktiviteten i området. Vi tror att en lagom mängd träd i många fall leder till mer grundvatten samtidigt som en betydande mängd kol binds och säkerställer en god tillgång på många av de andra nyttiga produkter som träd kan ge. Det är nog en överraskning för många att träd som är bra för så mycket, t.ex. brännved, markförbättring, skugga och foder till djur kan orsaka att grundvatten minskar för fattiga människor i utvecklingsländer. Men faktum är att de flesta studier visar att träd konsumerar betydligt mer vatten än jordbruksgrödor och gräs. Nyligen har det ökade intresset för att plantera träd för att binda kol i marken, och därmed minska mängden växthusgaser i atmosfären, faktiskt fått många forskare att varna lokala invånare och styrande för detta där det är brist på grundvatten. I den torra delen av tropikerna kommer det mesta av hushållens vatten från just grundvattnet. Varje dag så måste miljontals kvinnor spendera värdefull tid på att bära vatten till sina hem. På grund av klimatförändringarna visar forskningsresultat också att grundvattnet ytterligare kommer att minska i dessa områden och därmed försämra levnadsvillkoren för en stor mängd fattiga och sårbara människor. I torra tropiska områden är det fortfarande oklart om trädplantering alltid leder till minskat grundvatten på grund av trädens transpiration eller om träd kan bidra till att öka grundvattnet genom att förbättra markstrukturen och förutsättningarna för vatten att flöda ner i marken. Vi har sammanställt de studier som har gjorts om detta och funnit att nästan all forskning är gjord utanför tropikerna. Bristen på studier gäller särskilt i de torr-tropiska områdena, där man har som störst anledning att tro att träd kan vara positiva. I många tropiska länder minskar mängden träd hela tiden på grund av sociala och ekonomiska faktorer. Vi vill därför också undersöka orsakerna till det och om människor skulle göra annorlunda om de visste trädens verkliga påverkan på grundvattnet. För att kunna göra allt detta så är vi en grupp forskare som samverkar från flera discipliner. Gruppen består av forskare verksamma vid tre universitet i Sverige och tre utländska forskningsinstitut.

Det är nog en överraskning för många att träd som är bra för så mycket, t.ex. brännved, markförbättring, skugga och foder till djur kan orsaka att grundvatten minskar för fattiga människor i utvecklingsländer. Men faktum är att de flesta studier visar att träd konsumerar betydligt mer vatten än jordbruksgrödor och gräs. Nyligen har det ökade intresset för att plantera träd för att binda kol i marken, och därmed minska mängden växthusgaser i atmosfären, faktiskt fått många forskare att varna lokala invånare och styrande för detta där det är brist på grundvatten. I den torra delen av tropikerna kommer det mesta av hushållens vatten från just grundvattnet. Varje dag så måste miljontals kvinnor spendera värdefull tid på att bära vatten till sina hem. På grund av klimatförändringarna visar forskningsresultat också att grundvattnet ytterligare kommer att minska i dessa områden och därmed försämra levnadsvillkoren för en stor mängd fattiga och sårbara människor. I torra tropiska områden är det fortfarande oklart om trädplantering alltid leder till minskat grundvatten på grund av trädens transpiration eller om träd kan bidra till att öka grundvattnet genom att förbättra markstrukturen och förutsättningarna för vatten att flöda ner i marken. Vi har sammanställt de studier som har gjorts om detta och funnit att nästan all forskning är gjord utanför tropikerna. Bristen på studier gäller särskilt i de torr-tropiska områdena, där man har som störst anledning att tro att träd kan vara positiva. I många tropiska länder minskar mängden träd hela tiden på grund av sociala och ekonomiska faktorer. Vi vill därför också undersöka orsakerna till det och om människor skulle göra annorlunda om de visste trädens verkliga påverkan på grundvattnet. För att kunna göra allt detta så är vi en grupp forskare som samverkar från flera discipliner. Gruppen består av forskare verksamma vid tre universitet i Sverige och tre utländska forskningsinstitut.

The molecular mechanisms behind these findings are however poorly defined. We here aim to study how the human female genital tract is affected by these hormonal factors by assessing tissue samples and cervicovaginal secretions from cohorts of Swedish and Kenyan women. 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. CD8+ T cells and other innate immune proteins and effector cells play a pivotal role in controlling HIV replication. We here also aim to investigate how these cells and immune activation/inflammation markers influence HIV infection and shedding at the local tissue site. Different CD8+ T cell phenotypes will be correlated to local viral load in both genital secretions and cervical tissue samples. By exploring some of the underlying mechanisms for a dysfunctional mucosal barrier and a disrupted mucosal immune response we hope to contribute to the development of topical compounds against viral transmission and to prescription of optimal contraceptive methods to HIV infected women. Sexuell överföring av HIV-infektion från en smittad kvinna till en osmittad man påverkas av många olika faktorer.

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.

However, the mechanisms explaining these links are less known. We propose to study how social capital affects the risk of discrimination among people living with disabilities in Bangladesh. Several studies have shown that people living with disabilities have worse general health, lower educational outcomes, and reduced chances of getting a job. Moreover, disabled people have been shown to be discriminated against in these and other contexts. The main outcome variables of the study are discrimination in health care, education, and the labor market. The study will include two surveys to collect information on social capital both on community and individual levels. Along with data on other important factors, that may also affect the risk of discrimination of people with disabilities, we will analyze these data by means of multilevel statistical methods. The expected results will give estimates of the role of social capital for the risk of discrimination among men and women while controlling for other relevant factors. There is little evidence on how to improve the situation of disabled people at the level of communities. However, several studies have shown that social capital can be enhanced through various policy interventions. The results of this study may be used to develop interventions that strengthen the situation of people with disabilities in terms of access to health care, education and employment. Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är att studera frågan om det sociala kapitalet kan påverka människors risk att bli diskriminerade i olika sammanhang. Tidigare studier har visat att människor med ett högre socialt kapital har bättre hälsa, större chans att få en utbildning och högre sannolikhet att erhålla arbete. Men frågan om vad som förklarar dessa sammanhang är betydligt mindre studerad. Vi vill med detta projekt bidra till att öka vår förståelse för det sociala kapitalets roll. Frågan vi ställer oss är om tillgången på socialt kapital bland funktionshindrade i Bangladesh påverkar deras risk för att bli diskriminerade när de söker sjukvård, vill utbilda sig eller söka ett arbete. Målgruppen vi ämnar studera är kvinnor och män med syn-, hörsel- eller fysisk funktionsnedsättning. Genom att samla in data på det sociala kapitalet och på andra faktorer kan vi analysera det sociala kapitalets roll med hjälp av statistiska metoder. Det uppskattas att ungefär 15% av världens befolkning har någon typ av funktionshinder och flera studier har visat att man vet relativt lite om vad som kan göras för att deras situation ska förbättras, bland annat genom att minska risken för att de blir diskriminerade i olika sammanhang. Andra studier har visat att man kan förstärka det sociala kapitalet genom olika insatser. Resultaten av den här studien skulle kunna användas för att utveckla mer effektiva insatser som stärker situationen för kvinnor och män med funktionshinder när det gäller deras tillgång till hälso- och sjukvård, utbildning och arbetsmarknaden.

The proposal is hypothesis driven towards diarrheal disease mechanisms. Currently two licensed oral RV vaccines (Rotarix and RotaTeq) are used throughout the world. While both vaccines contain viral strains from ?developed countries? and were evaluated in large vaccine trials in Europe and USA with >85% efficacy against severe diarrhoea, recent information shows low (50-60%) efficacy in low-income countries, with 58% in Nicaragua. We have most recently found from studies in Burkina Faso, West Africa that Levis-negative individual?s (32% of the population) are entirely resistant to RV infections associated with viruses carry genotype P[8 ] a main component of both the vaccines. Having identified the first host genetic restriction factor to RV infection in humans our hypothesis is that the low efficacy of the vaccines in several low income countries is due to the high proportion of Lewis-negative individuals in the population that restrict infection with genotype P[8]. The overall aim is to determine if Lewis-negative individuals in Nicaragua are restricted from infection with genotype P[8] wild virus and current P[8] vaccines. Akuta diarrésjukdomar är fortfarande ett av de främsta globala hälsoproblemen och orsakar nästan en femtedel av alla dödsfall bland barn under 5 år i utvecklingsländer, och mer än HIV och Malaria tillsammans i denna åldersgrupp. Rotavirus är den vanligaste orsaken till de allvarligare diarrésjukdomarna hos barn och orsakar ca en halv miljon dödsfall per år. Eftersom förbättrad sanitet och hygien har begränsad effekt på sjukdomsspridning ses rotavirusvaccination som det viktigaste sättet att minska dödligheten i hårt drabbade länder. De två tillgängliga vaccinen (Rotarix och RotaTeq) rekommenderas av WHO och andra hälsoorganisationer men flera studier har visat på att vaccinen inte är lika effektiva i låginkomstländer, till exempel många länder i Afrika samt Nicaragua där effektiviteten har visats vara ~58%. Detta ska jämföras med runt 90%-igt skydd i Europa och Nord Amerika. Skälen till den låga effektiviteten är ännu inte fastställda men några anledningar som föreslagits är undernäring, förekomst av andra sjukdomar samt cirkulation av ovanliga rotavirustyper mot vilka vaccinen inte skyddar. Enligt vår hypotes beror det begränsade vaccinskyddet på att vaccinstammarna är Europeiska och Nord Amerikanska och på intet sätt representerar stammar i Afrika eller Sydamerika. Tidigare arbete som vi bedrivit i Burkina Faso, Västafrika, har gett viktiga pusselbitar som pekar mot att det är värd genetiska faktorer som är den främsta anledningen till den låga vaccin effektiviteten hos vissa befolkningar. Vi fann att barn som inte kan uttrycka en specifik socker molekyl kallad Lewis, är helt resistenta mot de rotavirustyper (genotyp P[8]) som finns i båda vaccinen. Faktum är att vi inte funnit ett enda Lewis-negativt barn i Afrika som infekterats med P[8] vaccin-liknande rotavirusstammar. Enligt vår hypotes behövs Lewis molekylen på tunntarmen för att rotaviruset ska kunna ta sig in i och infektera värdcellen. Detta skulle i sin tur innebära att dessa barn inte får ett immunologiskt skydd efter vaccination. Förekomsten av ?Lewis-negativa? barn är liten i Europa och Nord Amerika (2-5%) medan vi tidigare har visat att ungefär 30% av barnen i Nicaragua bär på denna fenotyp. I detta nyskapande projekt vill vi bekräfta vår hypotes att värd genetiska faktorer är anledningen till det begränsade skyddet efter rotavirusvaccination i vissa låginkomstländer. Detta ska göras genom ett nära och långvarigt samarbete med vår samarbetspartner Dr Filemon Bucardo och andra medarbetare i Nicaragua, ett land som har rotavirus vaccination sedan 2006, och där vi har varit starkt bidragande tillsammans med WHO och Gates foundation för nationell introduktion av rotavirusvaccin. Frågor som ska studeras är (1): Slå fast kopplingen mellan värd genetik och mottaglighet till olika rotavirus typer. Specifikt ska vi genetiskt identifiera vilka rotavirusstammar som infekterar Lewis-negativa och Lewis-positiva individer i Nicaragua. (2) Beror det begränsade vaccinskyddet på om barnet är Lewis-negativ eller inte?. Genom omfattande vaccinations studier i Nicaragua har vi tillgång till faces prover från barn som naturligt infekterats. Vi ska bestämma vilka genotyper som dessa barn har infekterats med (3) Har ålder en koppling till uttryck av Lewis molekylen och påverkar detta vaccineffektiviteten? En mycket intressant observation är att nyfödda asymtomatiskt infekterade barn förefaller att aldrig infekteras med vaccinliknande P[8] stammar. Vill bekräfta denna observation och koppla detta till Lewis fenotypen, vilket om vi kan konfirmera i Nicaragua starkt skulle stärka vår hypotes Samt (4) bestämma om mammans Lewis fenotyp och lokala IgA svar har betydelse för vaccin svaret. Sammanfattning. Projektet är starkt hypotes drivet och söker för första gången hitta en värd genetisk förklaring till varför rotavirusvacciner utvecklade i I-länder och framgångsrika i I-länder inte är framgångsrika i vissa utvecklingsländer.

Vi fann att barn som inte kan uttrycka en specifik socker molekyl kallad Lewis, är helt resistenta mot de rotavirustyper (genotyp P[8]) som finns i båda vaccinen. Faktum är att vi inte funnit ett enda Lewis-negativt barn i Afrika som infekterats med P[8] vaccin-liknande rotavirusstammar. Enligt vår hypotes behövs Lewis molekylen på tunntarmen för att rotaviruset ska kunna ta sig in i och infektera värdcellen. Detta skulle i sin tur innebära att dessa barn inte får ett immunologiskt skydd efter vaccination. Förekomsten av ?Lewis-negativa? barn är liten i Europa och Nord Amerika (2-5%) medan vi tidigare har visat att ungefär 30% av barnen i Nicaragua bär på denna fenotyp. I detta nyskapande projekt vill vi bekräfta vår hypotes att värd genetiska faktorer är anledningen till det begränsade skyddet efter rotavirusvaccination i vissa låginkomstländer. Detta ska göras genom ett nära och långvarigt samarbete med vår samarbetspartner Dr Filemon Bucardo och andra medarbetare i Nicaragua, ett land som har rotavirus vaccination sedan 2006, och där vi har varit starkt bidragande tillsammans med WHO och Gates foundation för nationell introduktion av rotavirusvaccin. Frågor som ska studeras är (1): Slå fast kopplingen mellan värd genetik och mottaglighet till olika rotavirus typer. Specifikt ska vi genetiskt identifiera vilka rotavirusstammar som infekterar Lewis-negativa och Lewis-positiva individer i Nicaragua. (2) Beror det begränsade vaccinskyddet på om barnet är Lewis-negativ eller inte?. Genom omfattande vaccinations studier i Nicaragua har vi tillgång till faces prover från barn som naturligt infekterats. Vi ska bestämma vilka genotyper som dessa barn har infekterats med (3) Har ålder en koppling till uttryck av Lewis molekylen och påverkar detta vaccineffektiviteten? En mycket intressant observation är att nyfödda asymtomatiskt infekterade barn förefaller att aldrig infekteras med vaccinliknande P[8] stammar. Vill bekräfta denna observation och koppla detta till Lewis fenotypen, vilket om vi kan konfirmera i Nicaragua starkt skulle stärka vår hypotes Samt (4) bestämma om mammans Lewis fenotyp och lokala IgA svar har betydelse för vaccin svaret. Sammanfattning. Projektet är starkt hypotes drivet och söker för första gången hitta en värd genetisk förklaring till varför rotavirusvacciner utvecklade i I-länder och framgångsrika i I-länder inte är framgångsrika i vissa utvecklingsländer.

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.

We now plan to evaluate this vaccine in different dosages for safety and immunogenicity in Phase I/II studies in descending age groups; adults, children 2-5 years and young children and infants 6-23 months, in Bangladesh. The project also includes establishment of new methods and determination of optimal time points for assessing mucosal immune responses against the key antigens of the vaccine, in an immunologically primed population. We will also try to identify factors that may explain the lower efficacy of oral vaccines in children in developing countries and based on this identify interventions that may improve immunogenicity in this important target group. Utvärdering av ett vaccin mot diarrésjukdom orsakad av ETEC-bakterier Den övergripande målsättningen med forskningsprogrammet är att utveckla ett effektivt vaccin mot enterotoxinbildande Escherichia coli (ETEC) bakterier för användning framför allt på barn i låg och medelinkomstländer. ETEC är en av de vanligaste orsakerna till diarre´ i världen och sådana bakterier har vistas ge upphov till ca 400 miljoner diarré-episoder och ca 300,000 dödsfall årligen hos barn under 5 år i utvecklingsländer och till 20 -50 % av alla fall av så kallad turistdiarre´. Vi har länge arbetat med att söka utveckla ett effektivt ETEC vaccin enligt samma principer som vi tidigare använt för att utveckla det drickbara koleravaccinet Dukoral®. Kolera och ETEC bakterier orsakar sjukdom på likartat sätt och vi har tidigare visat att en komponent i koleravaccinet, koleratoxin B subenhet (CTB), också kan ge effektivt, om än kortvarigt skydd mot vissa former av ETEC diarré. Vi har nu utvecklat ett nytt, mer komplett sk Tetravalent ETEC vaccin, som består av avdödade E. coli bakterier som genmodifierats till att uttrycka stora mängder av de proteiner, sk kolonisationsfaktor-antigener, på sin yta som är viktiga för att utlösa skyddande immunsvar. Det nya vaccinet innehåller också en toxoidkomponent som är mycket lik den som finns i koleravaccinet Dukoral, men vars struktur förändrats något för att ge upphov till starka immunsvar mot ETEC. I nyligen utförda och pågående studier på vuxna svenskar har vi visat att vaccinet är oskadligt och inte ger upphov till några nämnvärda biverkningar. Resultaten tyder också på att vaccinet ger upphov till starka lokala immunsvar, bl a i tarmslemhinnan, mot alla de viktigaste vaccinkomponenterna. Baserat på de lovande resultaten från studierna i Sverige planerar vi nu att testa det nya Tetravalenta vaccinet med avseende på oskadlighet och förmåga att ge upphov till immunsvar i Bangladesh, initialt på vuxna och därefter barn i sjunkande åldersgrupper, 2-5 år, respektive 6-23 månader, som är de viktigaste målgrupperna för ett ETEC vaccin. Vaccinet kommer att ges som en dryck i en bikarbonatlösning, och i olika doser, initialt i lägre doser på små barn, för att säkerställa att det är biverkningsfritt men ändå ger upphov till goda immunsvar. Studierna ska också söka identifiera olika faktorer som kan förklara varför drickbara vacciner fungerar mycket sämre hos barn i utvecklingsländer än hos barn och vuxna i västvärlden. Vi ska därvid bla utvärdera om olika kosttillskott, tex vitaminer och andra näringsämnen (Vitamin A och D, järn, zink mm), respektive om behandling mot olika parasiter före vaccination kan resultera i förbättrade immunsvar. Om pågående studier i Sverige visar att en immunförstärkande substans, sk adjuvans (dmLT) kan förstärka immunsvaren av oralt ETEC vaccin kommer vi också att testa detta adjuvans i studierna Bangladesh. Avsikten med de aktuella studierna är att få underlag för att testa det Tetravalenta ETEC vaccinet med avseende på skydd mot ETEC-infektion i en så kallad Fas III prövning i Bangladesh eller ett annat låginkomstland. Det aktuella forskningsprogrammet kommer att utföras i nära samverkan mellan forskare på Göteborgs universitet och forskare och personal på ett världsledande forskningscenter för utprövning av tarmvacciner, icddr,b, i Dhaka Bangladesh.

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. The method development will be done at the Science for Life Laboratory in Stockholm, whereas the field testing will be done in collaboration with partners at the Mbarara hospital in Uganda and the division of Global Health at the Karolinska Institute. Infektionssjukdomar är den främsta orsaken till sjukdom med dödlig utgång i låg-inkomstländer, speciellt i Afrika söder om Sahara. Tillgång till snabbtester för t.ex. Malaria, HIV och Leishmaniasis hjälper vårdpersonal att korrekt handlägga patienter, och en stor fördel är att snabbtester kan utföras och tolkas även där tillgång på laboratorier och kvalificerad personal saknas. Dock saknas idag känsliga och specifika tester för många av de allvarligaste infektionssjukdomarna såsom TBC och lunginflammation. Samtidigt finns det risk att det snabbt ökande antalet enskilda snabbtester blir ohanterbart, både praktiskt och ekonomiskt . Vi kommer att använda oss av ny teknologi i form av mikroarrayer som möjliggör samtidig detektion av en patients antikropps-svar mot ett antal olika patogener, där också varje patogens unika antikropps-signatur möjliggör kraftigt förbättrad specificitet. Vår grupp har nyligen utvecklat mikroarrayer som med hjälp av en speciell sorts papper samt en ny sorts nanopartikelförstärkt signal ger bibehållen kvalitet jämfört med konventionella lab-tester, samtidigt som undersökningstiden är kortare än 10 minuter och priset per analys är mycket lågt. Fokuset i projektet är att möjliggöra ett snabbtest för tillförlitlig diagnostik av främst TBC, men även i samma test detektera andra viktiga virala, parasit och bakteriella patogeners avtryck.

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. Det här projektet kan inte slutföras utan kompetens från Uppsala universitet vilken perfekt kompletterar den expertis som forskargruppen vid American University of Beirut besitter.

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. Det här projektet kan inte slutföras utan kompetens från Uppsala universitet vilken perfekt kompletterar den expertis som forskargruppen vid American University of Beirut besitter.

Att psykiatriska störningar har en genetisk komponent har redan visats övertygande.

Dessa prover har insamlats i Brasilien och kommer att jämföras med prover insamlade i Sverige. Ett speciellt fokus kommer att vara avvikelser i hjärnans struktur som studerats med magnetkamera och kopplas till genetiska varianter. Vidare kommer vi kunna jämföra data från ett internationellt projekt, Psykiatriska GWAS Konsortiet där vi är medlemmar. Målsättningen är att vi ska kunna utveckla biomarkörer för att tidigt kunna ställa rätt diagnos och sedan välja rätt behandling.

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.

The aim is to increase knowledge exchange. Linking up with Moi opens up opportunities for HIV research with access to large population-based cohorts in rural/urban areas. Western Kenya has the highest HIV prevalence in the country (10%). Moi wishes for us at KI to lift our research to new levels. Our tentative counterparts have shown great interest and seem motivated.

In turn, their links with Kenyan policy-makers and the Ministry of Health will enable swift dissemination of our operational research results, which in the past have had strong implications for the implementation of the existing HIV program. Our results can be more rapidly translated into policy and practice. 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. En longitudinell studiedesign kommer att användas där diskordanta par och unga kvinnor följs under 2 år med djupintervjuer. Vårt mål är att mäta: (i) medvetenhet om risk för HIV-smitta samt effektivitet av olika smittförebyggande åtgärder, (ii) acceptans, preferens och tillgång till olika smittförebyggande åtgärder, (iii) trender avseende användande av smittförebyggande åtgärder, avseende HIV-relaterat riskbeteende och avseende HIV-förekomst, (iv) samband mellan användande av smittförebyggande åtgärder, riskbeteende och HIV-förekomst.

These molecules have wide application in pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industry and agriculture.

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.

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.

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. Att kunna övervaka elefanter och varna befolkningen för dem är en spännande och viktig utmaning för Uppala Universitet och SICS där vi kombinerar datavetenskap och zoologi för att lösa ett betydande problem i Sri Lanka.

Kol är ett unikt grundämne i periodiska systemet, kanske det viktigaste grundämnet för existensen av liv. Sedan urminnes tider har olika former av kol varit kända och använts i det dagliga livet. Den mjuka silvergrå formen av rent kol som finns i vanliga pennor består av tunna blad av kolatomer som är sammanbundna. När dessa blad separeras, får man tvådimensionella filmer av kol, med endast en atoms tjocklek, detta är grafen. Grafen representerar en ny klass av material vars lågdimensionella egenskaper har mycket spännande fysik. Dess ledningsegenskaper indikerar att nya kraftfulla elektriska apparater finns inom räckhåll. Bara det faktum att grafen finns som en perfekt tvådimensionell kristall utmanar våra tidigare fundamentala insikter om att kristaller med ordning över långa avstånd inte kan finnas i två dimensioner. Sammanfattningsvis är grafen en ledstjärna för dagens materialveteskap och teknologi. Vikten av grafen har uppmärksammats genom att tilldela Nobelpriset i fysik 2010 till Andrei Geim och Kostya Novoselov for dess upptäckt. Inspirerade av grafen har mycket forksning lagts på att hitta andra 2D material. Det här projektet behandlar inte bara grafen, utan även andra 2D material, som t.ex. 2D hexagonal bornitrid, silicene (en form av 2D kisel) eller germanen i kristallin eller amorf struktur. För ökat vetande samt möjligheten att utveckla ny teknologi krävs kunskaper om materialens egenskaper både från ett teoretiskt och experimentellt perspektiv. De exotiska egenskaper hos grafen är en stor utmaning för materialvetenskapen. Vi ämnar här studera några av dessa komplexa egenskaperna med hjälp av datorsimuleringar. Materialteoretiska beräkningar spelar idag en central roll för att föra dagens teknologi framåt. State-of-the-art beräkningsmodeller tillsammans med stor datorkraft har idag möjliggjort att vi kan få förståelse av materialegenskaper på en mikroskopisk skala. Dessa verktyg kommer att användas till att studera stabiliteten hos 2D ytor, magnetisk växelverkan mellan metall adatomer på ytorna samt transportegenskaper hos amorfa 2D strukturer och möjligheten att använda grafen som som ett effektivt energi material för framtida miljövänlig teknologi. Simuleringarna kommer att genomföras med hjälp av densitetsfunktionalteori (DFT), ett teoretisk verktyg för vilket Walter Kohn fick Nobelpriset i kemi 1998. DFT används idag rutinmässigt för att analysera samt förutspå materialegenskaper inom fysik, kemi samt biologi. Med hjälp av DFT baserade metoder kommer vi öka förståelsen för olika nya 2D material. Vid sidan av DFT kommer vi använda klassisk molekyldynamik för att studera amorfa strukturer, för vilka vi sedan beräknar transportegenskaperna. Studierna kommer ge värdefulla insikter vilka sedan kan användas i nya spännande tillämpningar.

DFT används idag rutinmässigt för att analysera samt förutspå materialegenskaper inom fysik, kemi samt biologi. Med hjälp av DFT baserade metoder kommer vi öka förståelsen för olika nya 2D material. Vid sidan av DFT kommer vi använda klassisk molekyldynamik för att studera amorfa strukturer, för vilka vi sedan beräknar transportegenskaperna. Studierna kommer ge värdefulla insikter vilka sedan kan användas i nya spännande tillämpningar.

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.

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.

Key sections in Fyledalen, Skåne will be compared with successions from the Azov sea area in Ukraine. The targeted time interval comprises the Mesozoic (200-66 mya), more specifically aiming to correlate the Jurassic and Cretaceous successions based on pollen analysis, with the final aims to produce paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatological interpretations with implications for biodiversity. A fundamental component in the project is to produce a common taxonomical nomenclature, making it possible for Eastern and Western European palynologist to work together, and to be able to compare and correlate data and successions. The long time-perspective aim of this proposal is to enhance the knowledge within a relatively broad field of Earth-sciences. The prime target for this competence lift is the inclusion of key-scientists, representing different age, gender and stages in carrier in order to secure long term knowledge-transfer. This will be achieved by our workshop program, to be held both in Sweden and in Ukraine. The topics for the workshops will be the high quality science training for students at master and PhD level, involving different competence areas, such as application writing, project managing, planning and running conferences/workshop, setting the foundation for future collaborations. Detta projekt syftar till att sammanlänka geologisk kunskap om sediment av mesozoisk ålder (200 - 66 miljoner år) i Sverige och Ukraina. Sediment av jurassisk ålder i Fyledalen i Skåne kommer att jämföras med likåldriga sediment vid Azovskasjön (bihav till Svarta havet) i Ukraina. Materialet från Ukraina representeras av borrkärnematerial, där 45 borrkärnor nyss tagits upp och där forskare får tillgång till åtminstone fem av dessa. Borrkärnorna rymmer ett imponerande tidsintervall och omfattar både jura samt krita, ända upp till lagerföljden som representerar massutdöendet som inträffade för 66 miljoner år sedan. Genom att studera de fossila pollenflororna (palynologi), de marina mikrofossilen samt sedimenten kommer vi att kunna sammanlänka (korrelera) lagerföljder av samma tidsålder i de olika områdena (Sverige/ Ukraina). Syftet är att utföra paleo-miljötolkningar, dvs. klargöra hur ekosystemen, miljön och klimatet såg ut för 200 ? 66 miljoner år sedan då jorden under vissa intervall hade perioder av växthusklimat. En mycket viktig komponent i hela projektet är att ta fram en gemensam taxonomisk nomenklatur, dvs. artbestämingar vilka skulle göra det möjligt för öst- och västeuropeiska palynologer att samarbeta och jämföra data. Som det är nu så har forskare i det forna Sovjetunionen till stor del upprättat en egen nomenklatur, vilket helt enkelt betyder t.ex. att samma art/släkte av pollen eller sporer har olika artnamn i Väst- och Östeuropa. Huvudsökanden Vivi Vajda (Sverige) och Olena Shevchuk (Ukraina) är båda rutinerade palynologer och har fokuserat sin forskning på mesozoiska lagerföljder. Vajda har främst arbetat med miljötolkningar och mass-utdöede event medan Shevchuk främst arbetat med datering av lagerföljder inom tillämpad geologi så som olje och gasprospektering. Vajda har förutom vetenskapliga frågor, ägnat sig åt styrelseuppdrag inom geo-relaterade vetenskapliga program under UNESCO, något som givit henne kompetens i internationella relationer. Projektet skulle innebära stora fördelar för båda länderna, då Ukrainska geologer skulle få en öppen dörr till samarbete med väst, få tillgång till instrument och analysmetoder vid Lunds Universitet samt inkluderas i ett större internationellt nätverk av geologer. Sveriges vinst är att vi får tillgång till geologikst svåråtkomliga lokaler och samarbeta på material som vi annars inte haft tillgång till. I Sverige är Vajda för närvarande den enda palynologen som arbetar med mesozoiska lagerföljder och ett samarbete med en större grupp specialister skulle gynna båda grupperna. Slutligen är syftet med projektet att öka kunskapen inom ett relativt brett område inom geovetenskap. Detta ska uppnås genom vårt planerade workshopprogram, som kommer att hållas både i Sverige och i Ukraina. Ämnena för seminarierna kommer naturligtvis fokusera kring forskningsuppgiften men kommer dessutom att omfatta vetenskaplig utbildning av hög kvalitet för studenter på master- och doktorandnivå och omfatta olika kompetensområden, såsom att lära sig göra skriftliga ansökningar, lära sig projektledning, planering och att anordna konferenser /workshops.

We will study the role of SOCS3 and STAT3 underlying the progression from latent to active disease in patients with tuberculosis (TB) by studying systemic responses in peripheral blood and in situ responses in lesions from different anatomical sites using biopsy specimens. A novel imaging technique using padlock amplification for the in situ detection of multiple transcripts will be employed to characterize the immunobiology and the role of SOCS3 in granuloma formation and maintenance. Diabete predisposes individuals to TB. We shall investigate the role of SOCS3 in the progression from latent to active TB in individuals with or without diabetes. We will perform studies to define the immune mechanisms that SOCS3 modulates in non-hematopoietic, lymphoid and myeloid cells to confer protection against M. tuberculosis infection in mice. In vivo and in vitro experiments using different genetically modified mouse strains lacking SOCS3 in different cell populations will be used for this purpose. We will also determine whether SOCS3-regulated insulin responses affect the susceptibility of mice to infection with M. tuberculosis. Whether a pharmacological inhibition of STAT3, mimicking SOCS3 function, may improve the outcome of infection with M. tuberculosis will be tested. Tuberkulos (TBC) är en allvarlig infektionssjukdom som orsakas av den intracellulära bakterien Mycobacterium tuberculosis. En tredjedel av världens? befolkningen är infekterad med M. tuberculosis och nya infektioner sker i en takt av en människa per sekund. TBC är särskilt vanlig i utvecklingsländerna och Pakistan rankas som det 8: e landet när det gäller infektion och sjukdom. Antalet anmälda fall ökar varje år och resistens mot antibiotika är vanlig. Bara ungefär en av tio av de M. tuberculosis-infekterade individerna utvecklar TBC. M. tuberculosis angriper vanligen lungorna men kan också påverka andra organ. I resten av de infekterade individerna, kvarstår infektionen i en asymtomatisk form. Kontrollen av dessa asymptomatiska kroniska infektioner beror på samspelet mellan immunsystemet och bakterierna. Det är dock inte helt klart varför vissa individer kommer att utveckla en livshotande sjukdom medan andra hamnar i en livslång asymtomatisk infektion. Sådan kunskap är central för utvecklingen av vaccin och terapi. De vacciner som finns för närvarande mot TBC är ineffektiva. Eftersom mykobakterier är intracellulära, immuniteten bygger på cell-medierade immunsvar som kan aktivera bakteriedödande mekanismer av infekterade celler. Sådana svar regleras av hormon-liknande faktorer som kallas cytokiner. Typisk cytokinaktivitet kännetecknas av mycket snabb induktion, hög lokal koncentration och en kort halveringstid. När vissa cytokiner är närvarande, kommer de infekterade cellerna att uttrycka en mångfald proteiner som medverkar till produktion av mycket giftiga molekyler, som kan döda bakterier. Dessa cytokin-medierade mekanismer måste kontrolleras noggrant eftersom de annars också kan vara giftiga för värdcellerna, vilket ger upphov till en inflammatorisk sjukdom. Således är en optimal cytokin nivå, den som leder till bakteriell kontroll utan att orsaka skador på värdcellen, centralt för att behålla latens utan att utlösa sjukdomen. ?Suppressor av cytokin signalering? (SOCS) är en familj av proteiner som namnet antyder, hämmar svaren från celler till cytokiner. I Stockholm kommer vi att undersöka om SOCS3 (en av 8 familje medlemmar) kan vara involverad i en förbättrad utrotning av bakterierna, och kan också gynna värden genom att hindra allvarlig inflammation. Data från vårt laboratorium visar att SOCS3 skyddar möss mot TBC. Vi planerar nu att studera mekanismerna bakom denna observation. För att göra detta, kommer vi att använda möss som är genetiskt manipulerade så att de inte uttrycker SOCS3 i olika immunceller. Vi kommer att jämföra resultaten av infektion av dessa möss med dem som uttrycker SOCS3. Vi kommer också att utvärdera effekten av användning av läkemedel som reglerar SOCS3 eller STAT3 i infektionen med Mycobacterium tuberculosis i möss. Den Pakistanska partnern kommer att mäta SOCS3 nivåer i leukocyter från patienter med latent TBC, eller med lunginfektion TBC och icke pulmonär aktiv TBC, för att avgöra om dessa molekyler kan vara involverade i att avgöra känslighet för sjukdomen. De kommer också att mäta nivåerna av SOCS3 hos patienter före och efter behandling med antibiotika mot TBC. Dessutom, kommer de att avgöra om läkemedel som reglerar SOCS3 kan modifiera cytokin svaren hos patientens leukocyter in vitro så att de liknar de av asymptomatiska latenta infekterade individer. Vi kommer att använda en ny bildteknik för att studera granulom, en komplicerad cellstruktur som kännetecknar TBC, från kirurgiska biopsier från patienter samt från infekterade möss. Den roll som SOCS3 har för att upprätthålla granulom kommer att studeras. Sambandet mellan diabetes och TBC är etablerad. Om TBC påskyndar utvecklingen av diabetes och även diabetes kan dämpa skyddande immunsvar mot M. tuberculosis kommer att studeras. Den avgörande roll av SOCS3 i denna relation kommer att studeras.

We will study the role of SOCS3 and STAT3 underlying the progression from latent to active disease in patients with tuberculosis (TB) by studying systemic responses in peripheral blood and in situ responses in lesions from different anatomical sites using biopsy specimens. A novel imaging technique using padlock amplification for the in situ detection of multiple transcripts will be employed to characterize the immunobiology and the role of SOCS3 in granuloma formation and maintenance. Diabete predisposes individuals to TB. We shall investigate the role of SOCS3 in the progression from latent to active TB in individuals with or without diabetes. We will perform studies to define the immune mechanisms that SOCS3 modulates in non-hematopoietic, lymphoid and myeloid cells to confer protection against M. tuberculosis infection in mice. In vivo and in vitro experiments using different genetically modified mouse strains lacking SOCS3 in different cell populations will be used for this purpose. We will also determine whether SOCS3-regulated insulin responses affect the susceptibility of mice to infection with M. tuberculosis. Whether a pharmacological inhibition of STAT3, mimicking SOCS3 function, may improve the outcome of infection with M. tuberculosis will be tested. Tuberkulos (TBC) är en allvarlig infektionssjukdom som orsakas av den intracellulära bakterien Mycobacterium tuberculosis. En tredjedel av världens? befolkningen är infekterad med M. tuberculosis och nya infektioner sker i en takt av en människa per sekund. TBC är särskilt vanlig i utvecklingsländerna och Pakistan rankas som det 8: e landet när det gäller infektion och sjukdom. Antalet anmälda fall ökar varje år och resistens mot antibiotika är vanlig. Bara ungefär en av tio av de M. tuberculosis-infekterade individerna utvecklar TBC. M. tuberculosis angriper vanligen lungorna men kan också påverka andra organ. I resten av de infekterade individerna, kvarstår infektionen i en asymtomatisk form. Kontrollen av dessa asymptomatiska kroniska infektioner beror på samspelet mellan immunsystemet och bakterierna. Det är dock inte helt klart varför vissa individer kommer att utveckla en livshotande sjukdom medan andra hamnar i en livslång asymtomatisk infektion.

Målen med projektet är: 1) Isolera Actinobakterier från marina sediment utanför Chiles kust. 2) Identifiera bakteriella isolat, genom att använda masspektrometri och DNA-sekvensering. 3) Bestämma närvaron av gener som kodar för PKS och NRPS i isolerade stammar. 4) Karaktärisera biosyntetiska PKS- och NRPS-genkluster med hjälp av DNA-sekvensering. 5) Analysera isolat för nya bioaktiva föreningar med hjälp av masspektrometri. 6) Analysera dessa bioaktiva föreningars antimikrobiella aktivitet, genom att använda utvalda bakteriestammar som referens. Artrikedomen i ännu outforskade marina ekosystem är stor, och detta är nyckeln till framgång när man letar efter nya biologiskt aktiva substanser.

Isolat kommer att identiferas och karaktäriseras, genom att använda verktyg inom molekylärbiologin, såsom MALDI-TOF-MS och DNA-sekvensering. Förekomsten av gener som kodar för PKS och NRPS i isolerade stammar kommer att analyseras och dessa isolat kommer att analyseras vidare med hjälp av masspektrometri-baserad proteomik, i syfte att hitta produktion av nya bioaktiva substanser.

Forskningsprojektet är ett multidisciplinärt samarbete mellan Universidad Técnica Federico Santa Maria (www.utfsm.cl) i Valpariso, Chile, Culture Collection University of Gothenburg (CCUG; www.ccug.se) vid Sahlgrenska Akademien, Göteborgs Universitet och ett Göteborgs-baserat företag, Nanoxis Consulting AB (Small-Medium-sized Enterprise, SME; www.nanoxisconsulting.com). Bakterier från klassen Actinobakterier kommer att isoleras från marina sediment utanför Chiles kust, för att utvärdera graden av artrikedom av dessa bakterier och stammar som bär gener som kodar för polyketid-syntaser (PKS) och icke-ribosomala peptid-syntaser (NRPS). Isolat som har dessa gener kommer att analyseras vidare för produktion av antimikrobiella bioaktiva substanser. Molekylär mikrobiologi kommer att användas för en utförlig bedömning av artrikedomen, samt för utvärdering av komplexiteten av generna som kodar för produktionen av antimikrobiella bioaktiva substanser. Målen med projektet är: 1) Isolera Actinobakterier från marina sediment utanför Chiles kust. 2) Identifiera bakteriella isolat, genom att använda masspektrometri och DNA-sekvensering. 3) Bestämma närvaron av gener som kodar för PKS och NRPS i isolerade stammar. 4) Karaktärisera biosyntetiska PKS- och NRPS-genkluster med hjälp av DNA-sekvensering. 5) Analysera isolat för nya bioaktiva föreningar med hjälp av masspektrometri. 6) Analysera dessa bioaktiva föreningars antimikrobiella aktivitet, genom att använda utvalda bakteriestammar som referens. Artrikedomen i ännu outforskade marina ekosystem är stor, och detta är nyckeln till framgång när man letar efter nya biologiskt aktiva substanser. Det primära målet med detta projekt är att detektera och karaktärisera biosyntes som sker via gener som kodar för PKS och NRPS från Actinobakterier, vars ursprung är marina miljöer från Juan Fernandez-öarna, belägen 670 km utanför Valparaisos kust, samt Punta de Choros-bukten i Coquimbo-regionen, 120 km från närmsta samhälle. Marina sediment kommer att tas från dessa chilenska kustregioner i syfte att isolera marina Actinobakterier. Isolat kommer att identiferas och karaktäriseras, genom att använda verktyg inom molekylärbiologin, såsom MALDI-TOF-MS och DNA-sekvensering. Förekomsten av gener som kodar för PKS och NRPS i isolerade stammar kommer att analyseras och dessa isolat kommer att analyseras vidare med hjälp av masspektrometri-baserad proteomik, i syfte att hitta produktion av nya bioaktiva substanser.

Globalization and global alterations in climate have exacerbated the transmission of disease between wildlife, humans, and domestic animals, and are of particular concern in high biodiversity regions such as Sri Lanka. Intensive wildlife management relies on field anesthesia to monitor population numbers, distribution and diseases, but safe and effective techniques for immobilization of wildlife in Sri Lanka are needed. The goals of the proposed project are to develop immobilization techniques for key species and detect emerging zoonotic diseases in these populations. An initial workshop will provide a venue to institute a detailed research plan and build capacity. This will be followed by in-field development of reversible immobilization protocols, and use of cutting edge technologies to evaluate physiological functions and prevent complications during immobilization. Biological samples will be collected for population health evaluation with emphasis on emerging zoonotic disease detection. Yearly workshops will provide for assessment and dissemination of results, and communicating measures for zoonoses prevention to local people. Exchanges and training opportunities between Sweden and Sri Lanka will further capacity development and ongoing research, and strengthen collaborative ties in both field anesthesia and emerging disease detection. Det vilda djurlivet är en viktig tillgång för människor i utvecklingsländer. I Sri Lanka är turismen en betydelsefull inkomstkälla och naturbaserad turism ökar starkt i landet. Sri Lanka har ett rikt djurliv och den biologiska mångfalden per landyta är betydligt större än i de flesta andra länder i Asien. För bevarande och förvaltning av viltpopulationer kan djur behöva hanteras för t.ex. förflyttning, forskning eller provtagning för sjukdomsövervakning. Hantering av vilda djur kräver ofta att djuren fångas in och immobiliseras (anestesi), vilket kan vara stressande och riskfyllt för djuren. På Sri Lanka hanteras årligen hundratals vilda djur såsom elefant, buffel, leopard, apor och hjortar. De lokala veterinärerna har begränsade resurser och bristande tillgång till skonsamma anestesimedel, vilket medför ökade risker för djuren de hanterar. Vilda djur kan vara reservoarer för zoonoser, d.v.s. sjukdomar eller smittämnen som kan spridas mellan djur och människor. Av humaninfektioner är 61% zoonoser. Utbrott av zoonotiska infektionssjukdomar kan påverka folkhälsa, livsmedelförsörjning och ekonomisk tillväxt, vilket kan leda till katastrofala följder i utvecklingsländer. Hög befolkningstäthet och nära kontakt mellan människor, boskap och vilda djur ökar risken för sjukdomsspridning. Kunskap om förekomsten av zoonotiska sjukdomar hos vilda djur på Sri Lanka är bristande. Det här forskningsprojektet inkluderar två viktiga aspekter som bidrar till bevarandet av hotade djurarter och bekämpning av smittsamma sjukdomar: 1) Förbättring av befintliga metoder och utveckling av nya skonsamma anestesiprotokoll för vilda djur på Sri Lanka, för att minska komplikationsrisker och dödlighet vid vilthantering. Det här bidrar också till ökad säkerhet för de människor som arbetar med hantering av vilda djur. 2) Ökad kunskap om diagnostik och sjukdomsövervakning av zoonotiska sjukdomar hos vilda djur på Sri Lanka. Då vilda djur hanteras och immobiliseras på Sri Lanka kommer prover tas för att undersöka förekomst av bakteriella och virala zoonoser. Effekterna av olika anestesimetoder kommer studeras genom att övervaka kroppstemperatur, andnings- och hjärtfrekvens och analysera blodprover avseende lungfunktionen och blodets syrabas-balans. Vid komplikationer såsom syrebrist utvärderas olika metoder för syrgasbehandling. Nya reversibla anestesikombinationer kommer utvecklas för säker hantering av vilda djur på Sri Lanka. Projektet utförs i samarbete med veterinärer från University of Peradeniya, University of Kelaniya, Department of National Zoological Gardens och Department of Wildlife Conservation på Sri Lanka, samt forskare vid Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet och Statens Veterinärmedicinska Anstalt och veterinärer i Kolmårdens djurpark. Internationella workshops anordnas för kunskapsutveckling och spridning av resultat under projektets gång. Forskningsresultaten kommer att bidra till bevarandet av biologisk mångfald genom att minimera riskerna vid hantering av asiatiska djurarter. Ur ett folkhälsoperspektiv kommer ökad kunskap om förekomsten av zoonotiska sjukdomar hos vilda djur på Sri Lanka vara till fördel för både lokalbefolkning och besökande turister.

Rotavirus is the major cause for severe childhood diarrhea, thus rotavirus vaccines are an important preventive measure of diarrhea. Vaccine trials have, however, showed a reduced vaccine efficacy in many African countries. Burkina Faso is now about to implement vaccination nationwide and our research proposal is centered on this. By closely monitoring rotavirus before; during and after national immunization, we can investigate factors important for vaccine efficacy. A first objective is to establish RV surveillance logistics and techniques before vaccination. We have performed preliminary studies and found many unusual strains which could influence vaccine efficacy. The major objective is to determine the vaccine efficacy and relate this to evolving escape mutants and specific strains present in Burkina Faso. Our third scientific approach is most novel and based on preliminary data from Burkina Faso observing that children with the Lewis-negative phenotype, common in Burkina Faso, where not infected with vaccine-like strains, providing an explanation for reduced vaccine efficacy in Africa. The overall objective of this collaboration is increased knowledge and better techniques to study RV and factors important for successful vaccination; which will be done through regular workshops, lectures and scientific visits by researchers from Sweden and Burkina Faso. Vilka faktorer påverkar skyddet av rotavirusvaccination av barn i Burkina Faso? Akuta diarrésjukdomar är fortfarande ett av de främsta globala hälsoproblemen och orsakar nästan en femtedel av alla dödsfall bland yngre barn i utvecklingsländer. Rotavirus är den vanligaste orsaken till akut och allvarlig diarré hos barn och orsakar ca en halv miljon dödsfall per år. Eftersom förbättrad sanitet och hygien har begränsad effekt på sjukdomsspridning anses rotavirusvaccination vara det viktigaste sättet att minska dödligheten i hårt drabbade länder. Vaccinen rekommenderas av WHO och andra hälsoorganisationer men flera studier har visat på att vaccinen inte är lika effektiva i utvecklingsländer, framförallt i Afrika. Skälen till den låga effektiviteten är ännu inte fastställda men några anledningar kan vara undernäring, förekomst av andra sjukdomar, samt cirkulation av ovanliga rotavirusstammar mot vilka vaccinen inte skyddar. Burkina Faso, ett land i Västafrika med mycket hög barnadödlighet, planerar nu att införa rotavirusvaccination under senare delen av 2014. I detta projekt vill vi i nära samarbete Dr. Isidore Bonkoudougou vid nationella folkhälsoinstitutet i Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso på nära håll följa effekterna av vaccinationen. Genom dessa studier har vi en unik möjlighet att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar hur bra vaccinen fungerar. Vi kommer att i första skedet (projekt 1) etablera tekniker och metoder för att undersöka rotavirusförekomst och vilka stammar som cirkulerar i Burkina Faso innan vaccination börjar. Under och efter vaccinationen (projekt 2) kommer vi sedan undersöka effektiviten av vaccinet och om vaccinet skyddar mot de rotavirusstammar som finns i Burkina Faso. Vi kommer även med molekylärbiologiska tekniker övervaka om nya muterade rotavirus uppkommer mot vilket vaccinet inte skyddar. Slutligen har vi genom tidigare studier i Burkina Faso utvecklat en hypotes om att det finns genetiska faktorer hos en tredjedel av populationen som gör dem mindre mottagliga för vaccinet. Vi kommer således (projekt 3) undersöka om de barn som inte blir skyddade av vaccinen har denna genetiska faktor. Detta projekt är vetenskapligt helt nytt och kan leda till att nya och bättre vaccin utvecklas bättre anpassade för utsatta populationer. Genom att anordna workshops, seminarier samt föreläsningar ska metoder, teknik och kunskap överföras till samarbetspartners i Burkina Faso. Detta är speciellt viktigt i detta skede så att de nödvändiga vetenskapliga redskapen finns på plats innan vaccineringen börjar. Vårt övergripande mål är att genom kontinuerligt samarbete med forskare i Burkina Faso stärka kunskapsbasen inom virologi och vaccination med huvudfokus på rotavirus och andra diarrésjukdomar.

Den osäkra livsmedelsförsörjningen i landet strider mot det faktum att landet är rika på genetiska resurser för grödor. Detta beror i stort sett på självhushållsjordbruksnivån av jordbrukssektorn i Etiopien. De små böndernas självhushållningsekonomi täcker 95% av den odlade jorden där ett brett spektrum av grödor med olika lokala sorter odlas. Anchote (Coccinia abyssinica) och Oromo dinich (Plectranthus edulis) är framstående inhemska rotknölar grödor som har sitt ursprung och domesticerades i högländerna i Etiopien, och har varit av stor betydelse för etiopiska små bönders självförsörjande sedan urminnes tid. Dessa grödor hade länge odlats av flera etniska grupper i Etiopien, men till slut lämnade i händerna på färre grupper och begränsade till ställen. Även om dessa grödor har ett betydande bidrag till en hållbar livsmedelsförsörjning i Etiopien, ersättas de ständigt av andra dominerande jordbruksgrödor av global betydelse, såsom vete, majs, irländsk potatis och sötpotatis m.m. vilket hotar den genetiska mångfalden. Dessutom kan förlusten av genetisk mångfald vara oersättlig med åtföljande misslyckande att uppnå matsäkerhet och negativa bidrag till den naturliga miljön. I det sökta projektet avser vi att samla ursprungsbefolkningens kunskaper om lokala lantsorter och den socio-ekonomiska och funktionella betydelsen av de grödorna tillsammans med sina kulturella praktiker. Vidare kommer preliminära mångfaldsstudier med morfologiska, närings-och molekylära markörer utföras vid AAU och SLU för att generera preliminära data för att utveckla gemensamma projekt för förbättring och hållbar användning av dessa försummade och underutnyttjande grödor för framtidens bättre marknadsföring och värdetillägg. Projektet är tvärvetenskapligt med olika relaterade discipliner och experter från SLU och AAU. Den gemensamma utbildningsworkshopen och seminarier som anordnas av experter från SLU och AAU i Sverige och Etiopien kommer att stärka samarbetet mellan de två universiteten, vilket på sikt bidrar till en hållbar livsmedelsförsörjning i Etiopien. Dessutom kommer projektet att ge en möjlighet att etablera ett nytt samarbete mellan forskare i de två länderna som möjliggör att de gemensamt arbetar på produktivitetsförbättringar av viktiga grödor på sikt. Generellt passar det föreslagna projektet väl inom Etiopiens nationella jordbruksprioriterade områden och kommer att ha ett betydande bidrag till mat- och näringstrygghet samt förbättring av försörjningsmöjligheterna för de resurssvaga bönderna.

In the present project, we will put our catalysts to the test and evaluate them in a number of syntheses of natural products and pharmaceutically active compounds. Prof Kongkathip (Kasetsart University), works on the synthesis of oseltamivir phosphate or Tamiflu, which is a second-generation neuraminidase inhibitor with improved oral bioavailability. They have developed a synthesis of Tamiflu and are looking for a catalyst to improve the yields. A library of metal catalysts will be made available for their evaluation.

Our research group will be exploring the total synthesis of caged xanthones and pyranonaphthoquinone. The outcome of this collaboration aims in using chiral catalysts for the asymmetric synthesis of naturally derived bioactive compounds. The collaboration between the partners will be of mutual benefit and will be carried out by researchers from both countries together. Describe what will be done and why. Prof Kongkathip´s group is involved in the total synthesis of anti-influenza drugs. The influenza virus infects approximately 600,000,000 people globally each year, resulting in 250,000-500,000 deaths. They have previously established methods for the synthesis of oseltamivir phosphate or Tamiflu. However, debenzylation of the benzyl protecting group by conventional catalytic hydrogenation methods using a palladium catalyst always resulted in low yield and required a long reaction time. They are looking for an efficient catalyst which can be used in their synthetic process and give high yields. Catalysts will be prepared in Sweden and sent to Thailand for evaluation. Alternatively, a student could be sent to Sweden to work with the catalysts and the synthesis in my lab at Stockholm University. Prof Ploypradith´s group is involved in the development of new synthetic methods involving ortho-quinone methides as the reactive intermediates as well as total synthesis of natural products via the intermediacy of quinone methides. Many quinone methides show pronounced biological activity and have been implicated as the ultimate cytotoxins responsible for the effects of such agents as antitumor drugs, antibiotics, and DNA alkylators. Our interest is in developing chiral catalysts for asymmetric synthesis of the chroman and diarylmethane cores via quinone methides. Sweden will attempt further development of some novel enantioselective processes involving quinone methides.

Organofluorine compounds have become ubiquitous in our modern life, finding numerous applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and materials science. With the expanding desire for unique organofluorine compounds, there has been rapid increase in the development of new synthetic methodologies and reagents for selective incorporation of fluorine atoms or fluoroalkyl groups into organic molecules over the last decade. The total synthesis and structure modification of natural products have been demonstrated to be important technology for modern drug development.

Så kallade fotoniska gitter är artificiellt skapade strukturer som fungerar som periodiska potentialer för ljusvågor. Ett exempel på ett sådant är ett system av ett stort antal optiska vågledare (liknande fiberoptiska kablar), svagt växelverkande med varandra, där varje vågledare kan ses som en *atom* i ett gitter. Om materialets brytningsindex varierar signifikant med ljusets intensitet uppkommer ickelinjära effekter, vilket innebär att helt nya fundamentala mekanismer kan användas för att manipulera ljusvågorna genom att variera ljusets intensitet. 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. Sådana lokaliserade vågor, som i det här sammanhanget brukar kallas *diskreta solitoner* (liknande fenomen i andra sammanhang går också under benämningen *Intrinsiskt Lokaliserade Moder*, ILM) har studerats intensivt, både teoretiskt och experimentellt, under de senaste 15 åren. 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.

In Sri Lanka approximately 50% of the population (9.8 million people) is at risk of contracting bancroftian filariasis. Permanent and long term disability as well as acute attacks of filariasis affects the productivity of persons and causes loss of income. Currently no vaccine is available for human filarisis. There are only two drugs available for treating human lymphatic filariasis: The worm Wuchereria bancrofti is responsible for approximately 115 million cases and approximately 13 million is caused by Brugia malayi. Although W. bancrofti is the major causative organism, very little is known about the molecular biology, biochemistry and immune mechanisms of this parasite. W. bancrofti cannot be maintained in the laboratory and this is an impediment for testing new treatment forms in laboratory conditions. The project described in this proposal proposes the use of a cattle filarial parasite, Setaria digitata, as the model organism. This project will sequence and annotate the complete genome of Setaria digitata using NGS tecnologies. Work that will allow the identification of genes susceptible to drugs. Next Generation Sequencing technologies are revolutionizing the way we do research in the Life Sciences field. This project will deploy a permanent stand alone bioinformatics platform in Colombo and traini researchers iand students in the use of it. *Finding a cure for filariasis in humans and cattle* Lymphatic filariasis is a disease commonly known as elephantiasis and is caused by a parasite. This disease affects mostly people in developing countries. In Sri Lanka alone approximately 50% of the population (9.8 million people) is at risk of being infected and develop this disease. The disease causes deformities in people making them unable to work normally, this affects the productivity of the affected persons and causes loss of income. The fight against this disease is a fight against poverty in developing countries. Even more significant is the social stigma that goes with the disease (Elephantiasis). There is no vaccine against elephantiasis and only two known drugs that can combat this disease. The scientific name for the worm causing elephantiasis is Wuchereria bancrofti (W. bancrofti) The biggest problem for scientists to find cures against the disease is that W. bancrofti is almost impossible to keep alive in laboratory conditions. For that reason a close relative of this worm: Setaria digitata, that causes filariasis in cattle, can be used as a model for studies as this worm can be cultivated in laboratory conditions. Medical research is experiencing a revolution in the field of sequencing (reading) the genetic code of any organism using the so called Next Generation Sequencing technologies (NGS) at incredible speed and very low costs. In this case the sequence of a W. bancrofti genome is already publicly available. This will facilitate the planned comparative studies between these to related worms. It is of great value to also have the genetic code of the Setaria digitata as every gene discovery will be possible to test in the laboratories. The work will be mainly done using the power of modern computers and work that took decades in the past will take just a few years with the new bioinformatics tools available. Bioinformatics is a new science that fuses computational and biological sciences. The goal of this project is to produce the complete genome sequence of Setaria digitata and in this way allow the scientists to design new drugs and test them first in laboratory conditions and ultimately test if it works against the human elephantiasis. I will also allow the training and capacitation of a whole generation of Srilankan scientists in the use of modern bioinformatics tools.

This project will deploy a permanent stand alone bioinformatics platform in Colombo and traini researchers iand students in the use of it. *Finding a cure for filariasis in humans and cattle* Lymphatic filariasis is a disease commonly known as elephantiasis and is caused by a parasite. This disease affects mostly people in developing countries. In Sri Lanka alone approximately 50% of the population (9.8 million people) is at risk of being infected and develop this disease. The disease causes deformities in people making them unable to work normally, this affects the productivity of the affected persons and causes loss of income. The fight against this disease is a fight against poverty in developing countries. Even more significant is the social stigma that goes with the disease (Elephantiasis). There is no vaccine against elephantiasis and only two known drugs that can combat this disease. The scientific name for the worm causing elephantiasis is Wuchereria bancrofti (W. bancrofti) The biggest problem for scientists to find cures against the disease is that W. bancrofti is almost impossible to keep alive in laboratory conditions. For that reason a close relative of this worm: Setaria digitata, that causes filariasis in cattle, can be used as a model for studies as this worm can be cultivated in laboratory conditions. Medical research is experiencing a revolution in the field of sequencing (reading) the genetic code of any organism using the so called Next Generation Sequencing technologies (NGS) at incredible speed and very low costs. In this case the sequence of a W. bancrofti genome is already publicly available. This will facilitate the planned comparative studies between these to related worms. It is of great value to also have the genetic code of the Setaria digitata as every gene discovery will be possible to test in the laboratories. The work will be mainly done using the power of modern computers and work that took decades in the past will take just a few years with the new bioinformatics tools available. Bioinformatics is a new science that fuses computational and biological sciences. The goal of this project is to produce the complete genome sequence of Setaria digitata and in this way allow the scientists to design new drugs and test them first in laboratory conditions and ultimately test if it works against the human elephantiasis. I will also allow the training and capacitation of a whole generation of Srilankan scientists in the use of modern bioinformatics tools.

These changes resulted in the development of lakes, change in river course and fall in lake levels, which impacted landscape evolution, vegetation and early human societies. High-resolution paleoclimate records from sedimentary archives in Africa are very scarce. Moreover, existing studies have low temporal resolution or large age uncertainties. Paleoenvironment studies with good time resolution can provide answers on how hydrological changes have affected aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and the sensitivity of these ecosystems towards different climate scenarios. Sedimentary and lake sequences from the catchment in Lake Victoria Basin form an excellent terrestrial archive to test the hypotheses: 1) short-term climate variability in North Atlantic is synchronous with changes in temperature and rainfall in east Africa, and 2) ecosystem changes were probably gradual and responded in phase to temperature and rainfall, which impacted early human settlements. Our goals are to reconstruct a high-resolution late-glacial to near-modern multi-proxy paleoclimate record and predict Holocene temperature and paleohydrology changes. We will correlate the data with other records from peat, stalagmites and marine sequences from this region. The two-way knowledge exchange, and new research initiatives and collaboration will provide fresh insights, benefit exchange of scientists, and improve existing facilities.

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.

Based on this assumption, a key-aim of this project is to establish a basis for fair migration governance. This will be done in two steps. First, a nuanced understanding of migration will be obtained by comparative studies of migration in in three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia and Sweden. Second, drawing on Moral Cosmopolitan theory, a principled basis for fair migration governance will be developed. The project aim is realized by means of a careful project design that integrates research on migration within the fields of Ethics, Social Science and Psychology. In the first step, discipline-specific studies are carried out that serve to inform analyses conducted n the second step where partners from the different disciplines collaborate to develop a framework for fair migration governance. This project proposal is well-anchored in an existing collaboration between the two applicants. Expected results are substantial contributions to the migration debate in the form of encompassing analyses of migration and principled reasoning on responsibility. For project members, the interdisciplinary and international character of this project brings an extended research network, novel perspectives and dissemination channels. Research conducted in this project will serve as valuable input for future collaborative projects. Medan olika frihandelsavtal har underlättat möjligheten att föra varor och kapital över nationsgränser har människors rörelsefrihet mellan länder begränsats markant. Storskalig gränsövervakning och migrationskontroll världen över vittnar om detta. Denna utveckling väcker en rad etiska och sociala frågor om staters och migranters rättigheter och skyldigheter gentemot varandra. Några exempel är: Hur påverkas individer av och under strängare villkor för migration? Kan stater vara berättigade att systematiskt exkludera migranter och, om så, på vilka grunder? Kan stabila, välbärgade demokratier sägas ha några skyldigheter gentemot sämre ställda nationer och i så fall varför? Till exempel, spelar den koloniala historien roll för ansvar mellan utvecklade- och utvecklingsländer? Bör hänsyn tas till hur och varför migration uppkommer? Oftast hävdas att legitima stater, i kraft av sin suveränitet, är berättigade att bestämma över migration som en intern angelägenhet, bevaka sina gränser och begränsa andras åtkomst till deras territorier. Denna ståndpunkt problematiseras inom detta projekt där utgångspunkten är att migration bör förstås som en global snarare än en nationell angelägenhet och att ett gemensamt, överstatligt ansvarstagande för- och internationell samverkan kring migration är nödvändig för att säkerställa de olika parternas rättigheter och skyldigheter. Det primära målet för detta projekt är att utveckla ett etiskt ramverk för rättvist, överstatligt ansvarstagande för migration. Detta mål realiseras i två steg. I ett första steg görs en jämförande analys av (1) migranters erfarenheter av reguljär och irreguljär migration och hur de påverkas under rådande migrationssystem samt (2) nationers villkor för migration och möjligheter att ta hand om migranter. I ett andra steg används denna information som underlag vid utvecklandet av principer för en rättvis ansvarsfördelning för migration. Den teoretiska basen utgörs av en form av Moralisk Kosmopolitanism som kräver att alla personer, oavsett nationalitet, ska tillerkännas lika stort värde och att alla personers basala intressen ska ges lika vikt. Komplexiteten hos dessa frågor och problem motiverar den tvärvetenskapliga analys som detta projekt erbjuder. Med hjälp av flera discipliner, olika teoretiska verktyg och flernivåanalyser kommer de frågor som exemplifierats ovan att behandlas av forskare inom Etik, Ekonomi, Statsvetenskap och Psykologi i Indonesien, Malaysia och Sverige. Sociala, politiska och ekonomiska faktorer som påverkar migration kommer att analyseras liksom etiska och psykologiska implikationer av reguljär och irreguljär migration. I det första steget bedrivs disciplin-specifika studier som sedan informerar analysen i steg två där projektdeltagare från de olika disciplinerna samverkar om att utveckla ett ramverk för ett rättvist migrationssystem. Det övergripande målet uppnås med hjälp av en väl genomtänkt projektstruktur där de olika kompetenserna inom projektet tillvaratas och integreras.

Based on this assumption, a key-aim of this project is to establish a basis for fair migration governance. This will be done in two steps. First, a nuanced understanding of migration will be obtained by comparative studies of migration in in three countries: Indonesia, Malaysia and Sweden. Second, drawing on Moral Cosmopolitan theory, a principled basis for fair migration governance will be developed. The project aim is realized by means of a careful project design that integrates research on migration within the fields of Ethics, Social Science and Psychology. In the first step, discipline-specific studies are carried out that serve to inform analyses conducted n the second step where partners from the different disciplines collaborate to develop a framework for fair migration governance. This project proposal is well-anchored in an existing collaboration between the two applicants. Expected results are substantial contributions to the migration debate in the form of encompassing analyses of migration and principled reasoning on responsibility. For project members, the interdisciplinary and international character of this project brings an extended research network, novel perspectives and dissemination channels. Research conducted in this project will serve as valuable input for future collaborative projects. Medan olika frihandelsavtal har underlättat möjligheten att föra varor och kapital över nationsgränser har människors rörelsefrihet mellan länder begränsats markant. Storskalig gränsövervakning och migrationskontroll världen över vittnar om detta. Denna utveckling väcker en rad etiska och sociala frågor om staters och migranters rättigheter och skyldigheter gentemot varandra. Några exempel är: Hur påverkas individer av och under strängare villkor för migration? Kan stater vara berättigade att systematiskt exkludera migranter och, om så, på vilka grunder? Kan stabila, välbärgade demokratier sägas ha några skyldigheter gentemot sämre ställda nationer och i så fall varför? Till exempel, spelar den koloniala historien roll för ansvar mellan utvecklade- och utvecklingsländer? Bör hänsyn tas till hur och varför migration uppkommer? Oftast hävdas att legitima stater, i kraft av sin suveränitet, är berättigade att bestämma över migration som en intern angelägenhet, bevaka sina gränser och begränsa andras åtkomst till deras territorier. Denna ståndpunkt problematiseras inom detta projekt där utgångspunkten är att migration bör förstås som en global snarare än en nationell angelägenhet och att ett gemensamt, överstatligt ansvarstagande för- och internationell samverkan kring migration är nödvändig för att säkerställa de olika parternas rättigheter och skyldigheter. Det primära målet för detta projekt är att utveckla ett etiskt ramverk för rättvist, överstatligt ansvarstagande för migration. Detta mål realiseras i två steg. I ett första steg görs en jämförande analys av (1) migranters erfarenheter av reguljär och irreguljär migration och hur de påverkas under rådande migrationssystem samt (2) nationers villkor för migration och möjligheter att ta hand om migranter. I ett andra steg används denna information som underlag vid utvecklandet av principer för en rättvis ansvarsfördelning för migration. Den teoretiska basen utgörs av en form av Moralisk Kosmopolitanism som kräver att alla personer, oavsett nationalitet, ska tillerkännas lika stort värde och att alla personers basala intressen ska ges lika vikt. Komplexiteten hos dessa frågor och problem motiverar den tvärvetenskapliga analys som detta projekt erbjuder. Med hjälp av flera discipliner, olika teoretiska verktyg och flernivåanalyser kommer de frågor som exemplifierats ovan att behandlas av forskare inom Etik, Ekonomi, Statsvetenskap och Psykologi i Indonesien, Malaysia och Sverige. Sociala, politiska och ekonomiska faktorer som påverkar migration kommer att analyseras liksom etiska och psykologiska implikationer av reguljär och irreguljär migration. I det första steget bedrivs disciplin-specifika studier som sedan informerar analysen i steg två där projektdeltagare från de olika disciplinerna samverkar om att utveckla ett ramverk för ett rättvist migrationssystem. Det övergripande målet uppnås med hjälp av en väl genomtänkt projektstruktur där de olika kompetenserna inom projektet tillvaratas och integreras.

The objectives are: characterizations of graphene grown under different conditions and of functionalized graphene. To understand the interactions for band engineering and contacting with overlayers are crucial issues for future graphene-based devices. This will be accomplished using advanced surface science techniques at the Siam synchrotron, together with a group at Chulalongkorn University. This group is experienced in material growth and in other material characterization techniques. The collaboration will be mutually beneficial since the plan is to include also their nitride samples. The main applicant has a good track-record in graphene research using LEEM, PEEM, etc., at MAX-lab. The results show that high-quality large-area single-layer graphene can be grown, that the carbon buffer layer can be eliminated by hydrogen exposures, and that the graphene/SiC system has potential for hydrogen storage. During part of 2015/2016 MAX-lab will be shut down before the new ring is operational. The competition at the LEEM station has led to that an insufficient amount of beamtime has been obtained lately.

Grafen representerar idag ett av de mest dynamiska forskningsområdena inom nanovetenskapen tack vare sina många olika tillämpningsområden (snabb elektronik, lättviktsmaterial och flexibelt). Växer man grafen, som stora homogena lager, direkt på en isolator/halvledare så kan konventionella litografiska metoder användas för mönstring och metallkontakter appliceras för att framställa elektroniska kretsar. Såväl mono- och multi-lager av grafen växta på kiselkarbid uppvisar elektroniska egenskaper liknande ett isolerat lager av grafen. Därför har grafen/SiC kommit i fokus i forskningsansträngningarna som en möjlig/lämplig väg mot ny elektronik baserad på grafen. För grafen baserad nano-elektronik så spelar möjligheterna att modifiera elekronband-strukturen, att dopa och kontaktera grafen, och att ha tillgången till stora homogena lager av grafen lager på lämpligt substrat lika viktiga roller. Bandstrukturen för ett isolerat lager klassificerar grafen som en halvledare med noll bandgap. Vissa applikationer kräver dock ett bandgap. Ett sätt att erhålla ett bandgap är att skapa en smal remsa av grafen, med en bredd på mindre än 100 Micron, och därigenom begränsa elektronerna och hålen till en *kvantbox* som splittrar energibanden. Därvid kan dock de elektroniska egenskaperna ändras eftersom yt-tillstånd skapas vid remsans kanter. Nyligen publicerade resultat visar att storleken på bandgapet också kan kontrolleras genom att tillföra varierad mängd av adsorberat väte på ytan av grafen. Detta visar att det är möjligt att skräddarsy bandgapet utan att man behöver skära grafen i smala remsor. Vi har nyligen påvisat att när grafen växt på den kiselavslutade SiC ytan exponeras till väte så interkalerar vätet, dvs vätet tränger ner under grafen och buffertlagret och binder till de översta kiselatomerna i substratet. För ett prov med ett lager grafen initialt erhålls efter exponering alltså två lager grafen. Denna upptäckt avser vi exploatera vidare genom interkalering med andra atomer. Vi planerar också undersöka hur bandstrukturen modifieras när yttillstånd satureras med olika adsorbat och kan ge n- respektive p-typ dopat grafen. Att utveckla goda metalliska kontakter till grafen är ytterligare en sak som finns ett akut behov av. Speciellt för epitaxiellt växta grafenlager så kan substratet ge bidrag av kritisk betydelse beroende på vilken metall som väljs. Tack vare sina unika egenskaper så är dessutom grafen av stort intresse för användning inom sensorapplikationer, i studier av adsorptionsfenomen från atomer till biomolekyler.

In order to grasp the entire potential for the emerging transparent electronics, semiconductor materials of both - electron (n) and hole (p) type conductivity are required. Among the wide band gap semiconductors ZnO is rather developed n-type material, although its p-type conductivity is still a solid an obstacle. While NiO is oxide material with stable p-type conductivity, integration of two materials can lead to efficient p-n junction with plenty of applications. Furthermore, both materials are transparent for visible light, thus enabling contribution to emerging Transparent Electronics. In this project, we propose elaboration of both p- and n -type transparent oxides with low cost industry compatible technology. The complete characterization of structural, optical and electrical properties of the materials will be performed, aimed to obtain enhanced electrical properties and tuned transparency over a large spectral range from ultraviolet (UV) up to mid-infrared (IR). Final stage of the project will be fabrication of a hetero p-n junction for LEDs, transparent for visible light. The project will open the pathway towards the realization of transparent systems and devices and also efficient photovoltaic and solar cells for the future energy production & energy saving technologies. Transparent elektronik är en ny teknik som utnyttjar halvledare med stort bandgap för att åstadkomma osynliga optoelektroniska komponenter. Transparenta ledande oxider (TCO) med stort bandgap är lämpliga som material eftersom de både uppvisar en hög genomskinlighet och en god ledningsförmåga. Om dessa material kan växas i tunna skikt kan de användas till en mängd olika tillämpningar, t.ex. arkitektoniska fönster, solceller och optoelektriska komponenter. Vanligtvis används tunna filmer av indium-tenn-oxid (ITO) som genomskinliga elektroder för de flesta tillämpningar. Den växande marknaden för platta bildskärmar har orsakat en akut ökning av indiumkonsumtionen, vilket resulterat i att priset på indium har tiofaldigats. Det är därför viktigt att utveckla alternativa material för genomskinliga elektroder. Vidare är det av yttersta vikt att utveckla nya typer av p-dopade TCO med minst lika goda optiska och elektriska egenskaper som de befintliga n-dopade TCO. Detta skulle öppna för en ny typ av tillämpningar för transparent elektronik som inbegriper pn-övergångar och diodstrukturer. Zinkoxid (ZnO) är en halvledare med stort bandgap, 3.37 eV. ZnO är ett viktigt elektroniskt och fotoniskt material för en mängd teknologiska komponenter. Filmer av ZnO har en god genomskinlighet med mer än 93% transmission av synligt ljus. Rent ZnO är en isolator, men genom n-dopning kan materialet göras ledande med extremt låg resistivitet, ner till 10-4Ohm cm2 . Samtidigt har uppmärksamhet fokuserats på studier av filmer och nanostrukturer av ZnO som det optiskt aktiva materialet i lysdioder. Effektiv ljusemission vid rumstemperatur möjliggörs i ZnO på grund av en hög bindningsenergi hos excitonen (60 meV). ZnO är därför ett idealt material för lysdioder, men utvecklingen av lysdioder baserade på ZnO hejdas av att det ännu inte finns någon metod för stabil p-doping. Ett rimligt alternativ är att kombinera n-dopat ZnO med ett annat p-dopad material till så kallade heterostruktur. Bland de p-dopade oxiderna är NiO ett lovande material som också är genomskinligt för synligt ljus och det har ett stort bandgap (3.6 ? 4 eV). Konduktiviteten i NiO är kopplad till defekter såsom Ni-vakanser, interstitiellt syre eller dopatomer såsom litium. En heterostruktur av tunna filmer eller nanostrukturer av dessa två material skulle möjliggöra en genomskinlig pn-övergång som är nyckeln till elektroniska komponenter. En sådan heterostruktur skulle med fördel kunna använda i både lysdioder och i genomskinliga solceller. Utvecklingen av dessa material skulle därför väsentligt bidra till en hållbar utveckling av samhället i form av förnybar energi och energieffektivisering. Med denna ansökan skulle vi inleda ett samarbete som för samman forskare vid Institutionen för Fysik, Kemi, och Biologi vid Linköpings Universitet (LiU, Sverige) och Solid State Physics Department vid National Research Center (NRC, Egypten). Betydande synergieffekter förväntas i form av forskningsinsatser inom dessa institutioner, och detta projekt syftar till att kanalisera en del av arbetet för att uppnå gemensamma mål. Båda grupperna har kompetens inom tillväxt och karaktärisering av halvledare, men det är främst den komplementära expertisen och den alternativa forskningsutrustningen som ska utnyttjas i detta projekt, för utbyte av idéer och material prover med syfte till gemensamma publikationer och workshops.

The advances in mobile phone camera technologies and the spread of mobile wireless networks facilitate medical applications for transfer, viewing, and processing of digital microscopy samples. We have developed a prototype for a low-cost miniaturized microscope that has the ability to capture highly magnified images of patient samples sent over wireless mobile networks. Our central webmicroscope server allows the diagnostic process to be performed remotely, by a human observers or using automated computer vision analysis. We will evaluate a diagnostic platform for image-based detection and quantification of malaria parasites in routinely prepared blood smears. Captured digital images of the specimens are transferred to the central server to calculate the malaria parasitemia and to return the results to the technician in the field. To evaluate the feasibility of the method; a proof-of-concept field study will be carried out in the Bagamoyo District, Tanzania with Muhimbili University. The study will include a comparison with conventional microscopy with regard to diagnostic accuracy, an evaluation of usability and assessment of time to achieve diagnosis. The method will aid in the combat of infectious diseases at the point-of-care level of health care and has the potential to improve access to diagnostics, enable task-shifting and shorten the time to diagnosis. En klinisk fältstudie i Tanzania för patientnära diagnostik av malaria med hjälp av ett minimikroskop. Fler än 200 miljoner människor insjuknar årligen i malaria och nästan hälften av alla människor lever i områden med hög smittorisk. Den minskning av malariainfektioner som nu sker i t.ex. det afrikanska sub-Sahara innebär samtidigt att feber inte längre kan behandlas som malaria enbart på basis av symptom. Därmed ställs ökade krav på adekvat diagnostik av denna mycket allmänt utbredda infektionssjukdom. Den mest etablerade metoden för påvisning av malaria är mikroskopi av blodutstryk. Mikroskopi är en pålitlig metod ifall utförd på rätt sätt ? vilket tyvärr alltför ofta inte är fallet, speciellt i förhållanden där det är svårt att upprätthålla kompetens. För att kringgå dessa problem skulle en billig automatiserad metod för malariadiagnostik som kunde användas på bynivå innebära att man kunde ge rätt diagnos åt flera patienter i ett tidigare skede av sjukdomsförloppet. Detta har tidigare inte varit möjligt, men den snabba utvecklingen inom mobilteknologin med snabb utbredning av mobila nätverk till avlägsna trakter har förändrat situationen.

The advances in mobile phone camera technologies and the spread of mobile wireless networks facilitate medical applications for transfer, viewing, and processing of digital microscopy samples. We have developed a prototype for a low-cost miniaturized microscope that has the ability to capture highly magnified images of patient samples sent over wireless mobile networks. Our central webmicroscope server allows the diagnostic process to be performed remotely, by a human observers or using automated computer vision analysis. We will evaluate a diagnostic platform for image-based detection and quantification of malaria parasites in routinely prepared blood smears. Captured digital images of the specimens are transferred to the central server to calculate the malaria parasitemia and to return the results to the technician in the field. To evaluate the feasibility of the method; a proof-of-concept field study will be carried out in the Bagamoyo District, Tanzania with Muhimbili University. The study will include a comparison with conventional microscopy with regard to diagnostic accuracy, an evaluation of usability and assessment of time to achieve diagnosis. The method will aid in the combat of infectious diseases at the point-of-care level of health care and has the potential to improve access to diagnostics, enable task-shifting and shorten the time to diagnosis. En klinisk fältstudie i Tanzania för patientnära diagnostik av malaria med hjälp av ett minimikroskop. Fler än 200 miljoner människor insjuknar årligen i malaria och nästan hälften av alla människor lever i områden med hög smittorisk. Den minskning av malariainfektioner som nu sker i t.ex. det afrikanska sub-Sahara innebär samtidigt att feber inte längre kan behandlas som malaria enbart på basis av symptom. Därmed ställs ökade krav på adekvat diagnostik av denna mycket allmänt utbredda infektionssjukdom. Den mest etablerade metoden för påvisning av malaria är mikroskopi av blodutstryk. Mikroskopi är en pålitlig metod ifall utförd på rätt sätt ? vilket tyvärr alltför ofta inte är fallet, speciellt i förhållanden där det är svårt att upprätthålla kompetens. För att kringgå dessa problem skulle en billig automatiserad metod för malariadiagnostik som kunde användas på bynivå innebära att man kunde ge rätt diagnos åt flera patienter i ett tidigare skede av sjukdomsförloppet. Detta har tidigare inte varit möjligt, men den snabba utvecklingen inom mobilteknologin med snabb utbredning av mobila nätverk till avlägsna trakter har förändrat situationen. Internet har medfört att olika serviceformer blivit tillgängliga även för människor i avlägsna byar.

Tuberkulos (TB) hör tillsammans med HIV och malaria till världens största infektionssjukdomar som dödar många miljoner människor varje år, fram för allt i utvecklingsländer i Afrika och Asien. På sistone har också andra sjukdomar som främst betraktas som välfärdssjuksomar ökat markant i många av dessa utvecklingsländer. Dit hör diabetes som är en metabolisk sjukdom som resulterar i en minskad insulinkänslighet. Diabetes är en viktig riskfaktor för att drabbas av lungtuberkulos och diabetes patienter har en tre gånger så hög risk att utveckla aktiv TB jämfört med friska individer. Det är troligt att diabetes leder till ett försvagat immunsvar, men få studier görs för att bringa klarhet i de patogena mekanismerna som leder till denna ökning. För att kunna förbättra diagnos och behandling av TB också hos patienter med diabetes, måste vi först lära oss om mekanismerna kring uppkomst och utveckling av infektion och sjukdom för att försöka hjälpa patienterna till ett bättre liv. Vårt projekt syftar till studera immunsvaret vid TB/diabetes infektion samt att utveckla ny diagnostik och behandling av TB/diabetes patienter. Vår forskargrupp har etablerat ett starkt forskningsnätverk kring TB genom att vi samarbetar med forskare och kliniker i Bangladesh, där förekomsten av både TB och diabetes är mycket vanlig. Tillgången till TB/DM patienter är stor och därför är det lättare att genomföra större kliniska studier på utvalda patientgrupper. I det här projektet tänker vi utforska ett nytt diagnostiskt test som bygger på våra fynd att TB patienter har en kraftigt förhöjd nivå av antikroppsproducerande celler i blodet, speciellt vid allvarig sjukdom. Vi kommer att studera antal, utseende och funktion hos dessa antikroppsproducerande celler hos TB/diabetes patienter jämfört med relevanta kontrollgrupper. Vi planerar vidare att använda avancerad metodik för att karaktärisera fenotyp och funktion hos olika typer av immunceller i perifert blod, före och efter behandling med läkemedel mot TB för att kartlägga varför kroppen inte kan kontrollera sjukdom framför allt om man har både TB och diabetes. Vår förhoppning är att vi ska hitta unika kombinationer av celler och molekyler som är specifikt uttryckta vid TB infektion och se hur dessa immunsvar förändras hos diabetes patienter med TB. I en klinisk prövning i Bangladesh, kommer vi också att prova om behandling med två preparat, fenylbutyrat och vitamin D, kan samverkar för att stärka det antimikrobiella immunsvaret samt öka insulinkänsligheten i kroppen och förhindra sjukdomsförloppet. Vi har för avsikt att närmare studera hur dessa preparat reglerar immunsvaret och speciellt produktionen av små antimikrobiella peptider som har visats vara viktiga för avdödning av TB bakterier och därför liknas vid kroppens eget antibiotikum. Våra upptäckter tyder på att TB såväl som diabetes patienter har en brist på antimikrobiella peptider vilket kan göra det lättare för bakterierna att invadera lungan hos patienter som lider av båda dessa sjukdomar. Vår målsättning är att motverka denna nedreglering och förstärka vårt skydd mot TB infektion genom att öka produktionen av dessa antibiotiska peptider i våra slemhinnor. Vår förhoppning är att resultaten från projektet ska bidra till ökad kunskap kring immunsvaret vid TB och hur detta förändras hos patienter med diabetes samt hur effektiv diagnostik och behandling bör utvecklas i framtiden. Positiva resultat från vår forskning bidrar direkt till patientnyttan, eftersom en förbättrad TB diagnostik samt behandling kommer minska spridning av sjukdom och leda till en snabbare klinisk återhämtning.

Worst affected are poor people living in vulnerable communities in tropical and sub-tropical regions. Vector control by insecticides is the dominant way to combat and prevent transmission of mosquito-borne diseases. Due to globalization, environmental changes and increased insecticide resistance, there is an urgent need for new approaches and strategies for efficient vector control. This proposal aims to design, synthesize and develop multiple novel chemical classes of insecticides for control of Aedes aegypti (transmits e.g. dengue and chikungunya) and Anopheles gambiae (transmits malaria). We will target a form of acetylcholinesterase (AChE1) not present in vertebrates, and identify diverse selective chemical starting points by high throughput screening (HTS). Evaluation of a performed HTS targeting mosquito AChE1 has shown promising results. We have identified several classes of substances that are selective for the mosquito-form over human AChE. These multiple chemical starting points will be synthetically explored and optimized into insecticides. Early on in the discovery process we will include, in addition to the target-specific endpoints, response estimates that address human safety, environmental fate and effect, resistance sensitivity, and cost of goods. Mosquito testing, including laboratory testing and field studies, will be performed in Kenya. Nya insekticider för hållbar och effektiv bekämpning av sjukdomsbärande myggor Ett stort antal virus- och parasitsjukdomar sprids mellan människor eller från djur till människa av blodsugande insekter som till exempel myggor. Myggorna får i sig den sjukdomsframkallande mikroorganismen när de suger blod från en infekterad värd och överför senare infektionen till nästa individ som den biter. Myggorna är då så kallade vektorer för sjukdomen. Varje år infekteras mer än en miljard människor och mer än en miljon människor dör av vektorburna sjukdomar som malaria, dengue och chikungunya. Värst drabbade är fattiga människor som lever under svåra förhållanden, främst i tropiska och subtropiska regioner. De individer som löper störst risk att drabbas är små barn, gravida kvinnor, människor med HIV och de som är drabbade av naturkatastrofer och humanitära nödsituationer. Det stora antalet infekterade individer leder också till en ökad fattigdom på grund av medicinska kostnader och att de drabbade blir svaga och orkeslösa och därmed inte längre kan arbeta och bidra till familjeförsörjningen. Bekämpning av vektorburna sjukdomar har därför en central roll för fattigsdomsbekämpning och ekonomisk utveckling i låg- och medelinkomst länder. Klimatförändringar och ökad globalisering har medfört en ökning i både antal och utbredning av sjukdomsspridande myggor. Detta innebär en ökad risk för epidemiska utbrott och en spridning av myggor till tempererade regioner. Till exempel så har myggan som sprider dengue nu påträffats i 20 europeiska länder. En effektiv metod för bekämpning av myggburna sjukdomar är vektorkontroll med hjälp av insekticider. Tyvärr har det utvecklats stammar av sjukdomsspridande myggor som är okänsliga mot samtliga kemiska klasser av insekticider som kan användas idag. Myggorna har utvecklat resistens mot insekticiderna. Detta utgör ett allvarligt hot mot kampen för att bekämpa sjukdomar som malaria, framför allt i Afrika. Ökningen av utbredning och antal sjukdomsspridande myggor, tillsammans med en ökad insekticidresistens på grund av ensidig vektorkontroll, har frambringat ett akut behov av alternativa strategier och tillvägagångssätt for bekämpning av sjudomsspridande myggor. Målet med detta forskningsprogam är att forska fram nya insekticider som specifikt angriper myggor som sprider bland annat malaria, dengue och chikungunya. De nya insekticiderna ska förhindra funktionen av ett för myggan livsnödvändigt protein, ett protein som inte finns hos ryggradsdjur. Vi har testat ett stort antal organiska substanser och upptäckt nya substanser som är lämpliga startpunkter för vidare utveckling till insekticider. Dessa startpunkter kommer att undersökas, modifieras och optimeras med experimentella och datorbaserade tekniker. I utvecklingsprocessen av insekticiderna kommer vi att utföra ett flertal proteinspecifika tester, men vi kommer även tidigt i processen att inkludera hälsoaspekter, miljöpåverkan, resistenskänslighet och framställningskostnad av insekticiderna. Försök på myggor kommer att genomföras i laboratoriemiljö och genom fältstudier i Kenya.

The objective is to implement a specifically designed model (the SPEND model) for health care provision in high discrimination settings and to test and evaluate its efficacy with regard to reduced rates of sexually transmitted infections and HIV and improved treatment access among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Tanzania. Our previous research from this population indicates high levels of HIV/Chlamydia (30%/19%) and transactional sex (30%), low frequency of condom-use (24,5) and discrimination being a barrier for accessing HIV testing services (14,8%). Due to stigma, many MSM turned directly to pharmacists to purchase STI treatment, which resulted in inappropriate diagnoses and treatments. Unique data on increasing HIV/health care for MSM and reducing discrimination will be collected through assessing the impact of provision of access to safe testing and treatment; training pharmacists and drugstores as front-line providers of STI treatment; provision of human sexuality education to health care providers and nursing students to reduce homophobia within health care; and use of patient navigators for MSM with HIV disease in treatment. The findings generated by this project will be used to inform future research and interventions, which address the health of MSM, and other vulnerable groups, in highly discriminatory settings. Män som har sex med män (MSM) tillhör några utav de grupper som drabbats hårdast utav HIV epidemin. I många länder minskar prevalensen hos den generella befolkningen medan den samtidigt ökar bland MSM gruppen (i USA har HIV prevalensen ökat med 8 % per år sedan 2001). I slutet av 2011 hade 93 av 196 länder inte rapporterat förekomsten av HIV bland MSM personer under de senaste fem åren. Majoriteten utav dessa länder finns i Mellanöstern och Afrika där homosexualitet oftast är olagligt. De enstaka undersökningar som gjorts påvisar höga HIV siffror bland MSM personer och i vissa fall att de har en större utsatthet för HIV jämfört med heterosexuella män (eller män som inte har sex med andra män). Samtidigt visar forskningen att MSM personer skräms bort från sjukvården på grund av kränkande och diskriminerande bemötande, ibland med utpressning och hot om våld som följd. Det här leder till ytterligare ohälsa för en redan utsatt grupp. Det finns således en kunskapslucka i de länder som drabbats hårdast utav HIV epidemin. Afrika söder om Sahara beräknas vara hem till 34 % av den globala HIV smittan. Trots detta finns endast ett fåtal studier som undersökt hur MSM gruppen drabbats. Där fallstudier gjorts konstateras höga siffror bland grupperna- 21 % i Senegal resp. 43 % i Kenya. Men när det gäller nationella epidemiologiska studier som undersöker HIV prevalenser, sjukdomsmönster och faktorer bakom risktagande bland MSM personer är dessa mycket begränsade i sin omfattning på den Afrikanska kontinenten. Tanzania har en nationell HIV prevalens på 5,7 % och de studier som gjorts bland MSM uppvisar höga siffror av oskyddat sex och behov av grundläggande HIV interventioner. Dessa är dock baserade på små urval och har inte kunnat generaliseras vilket begränsar kunskapen kring HIV epidemin bland dessa populationer. Lunds Universitet (LU) kommer tillsammans med University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) och Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) i Tanzania att inleda ett treårigt samarbetsprojekt för att testa och utvärdera en särskilt framtagen modell, SPEND modellen. Denna syftar till att minska sexuellt överförbara infektioner och förbättra tillgången till behandling bland MSM i Tanzania. Modellen baseras på forskargruppens tidigare undersökningar i landet kring MSM och HIV/STI (år 2010). I dessa fann vi höga nivåer av HIV (30%) och klamydia (19%), lågt användande av kondom (24,5%) och hög förekomst utav prostitution (30%). Vi kunde även se att många MSM uppgav en motvilja för att besöka sjukvården för HIV test och/eller HIV behandling på grund av rädsla för diskriminering och trakasserier (14,8%). En stor del utav de MSM som intervjuades gick direkt till apoteken för att införskaffa medicin med feldoseringar och resistens som resultat. Vi kommer därför att fokusera på fem komponenter; trygg och säker behandling; utbildning och involvering utav apotekspersonal; utbildning av vårdpersonal; navigering av patienter i hälsosystemet vid HIV-testning och vård (samt diskrimineringsbekämpning bland studenter inom folkhälso- och vårdprogrammen på två universitet i Tanzania. Varje komponent kommer att utvärderas genom ett antal studier som mäter dess effekt för att minska sexuellt överförbara infektioner bland MSM och minska stigma och diskriminering inom vården. Sammantaget förväntas detta leda till en ökad förståelse för hur MSM kan involveras i kampen mot HIV i en miljö med höga förekomster av homofobi och fattigdom.

The objective is to implement a specifically designed model (the SPEND model) for health care provision in high discrimination settings and to test and evaluate its efficacy with regard to reduced rates of sexually transmitted infections and HIV and improved treatment access among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Tanzania. Our previous research from this population indicates high levels of HIV/Chlamydia (30%/19%) and transactional sex (30%), low frequency of condom-use (24,5) and discrimination being a barrier for accessing HIV testing services (14,8%). Due to stigma, many MSM turned directly to pharmacists to purchase STI treatment, which resulted in inappropriate diagnoses and treatments. Unique data on increasing HIV/health care for MSM and reducing discrimination will be collected through assessing the impact of provision of access to safe testing and treatment; training pharmacists and drugstores as front-line providers of STI treatment; provision of human sexuality education to health care providers and nursing students to reduce homophobia within health care; and use of patient navigators for MSM with HIV disease in treatment. The findings generated by this project will be used to inform future research and interventions, which address the health of MSM, and other vulnerable groups, in highly discriminatory settings. Män som har sex med män (MSM) tillhör några utav de grupper som drabbats hårdast utav HIV epidemin. I många länder minskar prevalensen hos den generella befolkningen medan den samtidigt ökar bland MSM gruppen (i USA har HIV prevalensen ökat med 8 % per år sedan 2001). I slutet av 2011 hade 93 av 196 länder inte rapporterat förekomsten av HIV bland MSM personer under de senaste fem åren. Majoriteten utav dessa länder finns i Mellanöstern och Afrika där homosexualitet oftast är olagligt. De enstaka undersökningar som gjorts påvisar höga HIV siffror bland MSM personer och i vissa fall att de har en större utsatthet för HIV jämfört med heterosexuella män (eller män som inte har sex med andra män). Samtidigt visar forskningen att MSM personer skräms bort från sjukvården på grund av kränkande och diskriminerande bemötande, ibland med utpressning och hot om våld som följd. Det här leder till ytterligare ohälsa för en redan utsatt grupp. Det finns således en kunskapslucka i de länder som drabbats hårdast utav HIV epidemin. Afrika söder om Sahara beräknas vara hem till 34 % av den globala HIV smittan. Trots detta finns endast ett fåtal studier som undersökt hur MSM gruppen drabbats. Där fallstudier gjorts konstateras höga siffror bland grupperna- 21 % i Senegal resp. 43 % i Kenya. Men när det gäller nationella epidemiologiska studier som undersöker HIV prevalenser, sjukdomsmönster och faktorer bakom risktagande bland MSM personer är dessa mycket begränsade i sin omfattning på den Afrikanska kontinenten. Tanzania har en nationell HIV prevalens på 5,7 % och de studier som gjorts bland MSM uppvisar höga siffror av oskyddat sex och behov av grundläggande HIV interventioner. Dessa är dock baserade på små urval och har inte kunnat generaliseras vilket begränsar kunskapen kring HIV epidemin bland dessa populationer. Lunds Universitet (LU) kommer tillsammans med University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) och Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) i Tanzania att inleda ett treårigt samarbetsprojekt för att testa och utvärdera en särskilt framtagen modell, SPEND modellen. Denna syftar till att minska sexuellt överförbara infektioner och förbättra tillgången till behandling bland MSM i Tanzania. Modellen baseras på forskargruppens tidigare undersökningar i landet kring MSM och HIV/STI (år 2010). I dessa fann vi höga nivåer av HIV (30%) och klamydia (19%), lågt användande av kondom (24,5%) och hög förekomst utav prostitution (30%). Vi kunde även se att många MSM uppgav en motvilja för att besöka sjukvården för HIV test och/eller HIV behandling på grund av rädsla för diskriminering och trakasserier (14,8%). En stor del utav de MSM som intervjuades gick direkt till apoteken för att införskaffa medicin med feldoseringar och resistens som resultat. Vi kommer därför att fokusera på fem komponenter; trygg och säker behandling; utbildning och involvering utav apotekspersonal; utbildning av vårdpersonal; navigering av patienter i hälsosystemet vid HIV-testning och vård (samt diskrimineringsbekämpning bland studenter inom folkhälso- och vårdprogrammen på två universitet i Tanzania. Varje komponent kommer att utvärderas genom ett antal studier som mäter dess effekt för att minska sexuellt överförbara infektioner bland MSM och minska stigma och diskriminering inom vården. Sammantaget förväntas detta leda till en ökad förståelse för hur MSM kan involveras i kampen mot HIV i en miljö med höga förekomster av homofobi och fattigdom.

Our project aim to understand the impact of worms and worm proteins on development and control of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and determine if de-worming can enhance immune responses and facilitate clearance of Leishmania donovani and thereby improve the efficacy of already existing drugs anti-leishmanials. We want to test this experimentally and in a clinical trial. Worms, being potent inducers of Th2 and regulatory responses, can be envisaged to affect the ability of the host to respond to Th1 controlled infections (e.g. Leishmania). The drugs (e.g. pentavalent antimonials, SbV) commonly used against leishmaniasis depend on host residual immunity to clear parasite infection. Thus, boosting Th1 immunity may enhance therapeutic efficacy, as suggested by combined therapy with the Th1 cytokine IFNg and SbV, which promoted parasite clearance over SbV monotherapy. Human VL is suitable as a model for a human disease where deworming can be envisaged to have impact. VL patients are hospitalized and the treatment time is manageable 15-30 days. Analysis of proteins from human worms may allow identification of immune modulatory proteins specific for human worms, which may be a contributing or underlying factor to immune failure in patients developing VL disease. Targeting such molecules may be used to treatments worms and to enhance control of co-infection. Vi vill förstå om och hur maskar kan påverka sjukdomsutveckling av parasitsjukdomen leishmaniasis och undersöka om man genom att avmaska kan förbättra effektiviteten av läkemedel mot leishmaniasis. Leishmaniasis är sjukdomar som orsakas av encelliga parasiter i familjen Leishmania. Den svåraste formen ? visceral leishmaniais eller kala-azar, där lever, mjälte och benmärg infekteras, är nästan alltid dödlig utan behandling. Leishmaniasis drabbar de allra fattigaste och sjukdomen är klassad som ?förbisedd? av WHO, vilket innebär att de resurser som går till forskning och kontroll åtgärder inte står i relation till det problem som sjukdomen orsakar. Behandling av kala-azar är mycket kostsam för den fattiga befolkning som drabbas. Bara läkemedel kostar 300-350 USD, vilket är mer än en årsinkomst för många av dem som insjuknar. Utöver detta tillkommer sjukhusvård och bortfall av inkomst. Billiga interventioner som kan korta ner sjukhusvistelsen eller kostnader för läkemedel är således eftertraktade. Behandlingar som stärker individens eget immunsvar har visat sig kunna förbättra behandling av kala-azar, tyvärr är dessa biologiska terapier mycket kostsamma och idag inte genomförbara för mer än experimentella kliniska studier. Maskinfektioner är globalt sett mycket vanliga och polyparasitism är snarare norm än undantag för människor som lever under dåliga sanitära förhållanden. Över 1 miljard människor beräknas vara infekterade med en eller flera tarmlevande maskar. Maskinfektioner är sällan dödliga, men kan leda till undernäring, försenad utveckling och kan ha en stor påverkan på kroppens immunförsvar. Kroniska maskinfektioner genererar en typ av immunsvar som kallas T hjälpar (Th) 2 svar och ett regulatoriskt immunsvar. Dessa immunsvar spelar en viktig roll för att kontrollera mask infektioner och för att begränsa inflammation, men både Th2 svaret och det regulatoriska svaret kan motverka en annan typ av immunsvar som kallas Th1. Th1 svar är viktiga för att kontrollera vissa andra mikroorganismer t.ex. Leishmania och mykobakterier. De vanligaste läkemedlen mot Leishmania behöver samarbeta med kroppens immunförsvar för att kunna göra sig av med parasiten. Utifrån denna vetskap kan man förutspå att en kala-azar patient med maskinfektion kommer att svara sämre vid behandling en ?maskfri? person. Vi tror därför att avmaskning kan stärka patientens Th1 svar och därmed förbättra behandlingen av visceral leishmaniasis. Human visceral leishmaniasis är en lämplig sjukdom för att testa effekter av avmaskning och om avmaskning kan förbättra behandling av en sekundär sjukdom. Patienterna är intagna på sjukhus under hela behandlingstiden som är mellan 15-30 dagar och är således lätta att följa upp. Tiden är också sådan att den, utan att vara allt för lång, är realistisk för att upptäcka mätbara skillnader i parasitmängd. Molekylärbiologiska metoder (PCR) gör det möjligt att mäta parasiter i små mängder av blod och vi kan på så sätt kontinuerligt följa effekten av behandling. För att förstå hur maskar kan påverkar vårt immunsvar vill vi samla in maskar från av-maskade människor, isolera proteiner och studera maskproteinernas immun-hämmande egenskaper på celler som infekterats eller stimulerats med Leishmania eller andra antigen. Maskmolekylerna kan också utgöra mål för nya maskmediciner, men även fungera i behandling av inflammatoriska sjukdomar.

Syftet med detta projekt är att utveckla och implementera en modell för mobil-telefonbaserad och klient-centrerad rehabilitering efter stroke vars mål är att understödja aktivitet och delaktighet i vardagslivet för personer med stroke och deras familjer. Projektet bygger på en svensk modell för en klient-centrerad ADL-intervention (Aktiviteter i det Dagliga Livet) efter stroke som nu utvärderas i en randomiserad kontrollerad studie genomförd vid Karolinska Institutet (KI). Denna intervention ska i detta projekt kulturanpassas och modifieras så att den kan integreras i en mobiltelefon-applikation som utvecklas och utvärderas i Uganda. Telerehabilitering rekommenderas när personer med stroke och deras familjer bor långt ifrån rehabiliteringskliniker eller saknar tillgängliga transportmedel, vilket ofta är fallet i Uganda. Under de senaste åren har mobiltelefonanvändningen i Uganda ökat kraftigt och mobiltelefonen är ofta den enda möjligheten till kommunikation mellan medlemmar i en familj som bor långt ifrån varandra. Tele-rehabilitering som inkluderar mobiltelefoner kan användas för att öka tillgängligheten till vård och rehabilitering till ett lägre pris. Idag saknas rehabiliteringsprogram och forskning kring rehabilitering efter stroke i Uganda men det saknas även internationell forskning kring hur mobiltelefoner kan användas som redskap i rehabiliteringen efter en stroke. Detta projekt kan därför generera nya och värdefulla kunskaper om hur mobiltelefoner kan användas i vård och rehabilitering efter stroke. Projektet bygger vidare på ett samarbete som pågått i åtta år mellan arbetsterapeut-utbildningarna vid KI, Stockholm och Paramedical Training Schools i Kampala, Uganda inom ramen för Sida Linneus-Palme utbytesprogram för lärare och studenter. Samarbetet har resulterat i forskningssamarbete inom detta projekt och i projektgruppen ingår en ugandisk doktorand som är registrerad vid KI och en svensk doktorand. Detta projekt är ett systerprojekt till forskningsprogrammet, Life After Stroke -3 (LAS) på KI där det finns liknande pågående studier vilket innebär att vi kan göra kulturella jämförelser mellan Sverige och Uganda då vi använder jämförbar vetenskaplig design och metodik. Projektet genomförs i två faser och är indelat i fem olika delstudier som använder både kvalitativa och kvantitativa metoder vilket är rekommenderat i denna typ av icke-farmakologisk interventionsstudie med hög komplexitet. I fas I översätts och kulturanpassas ett standardiserat undersökningsinstrument (Stroke Impact Scale, SIS) som prövas i en studie som omfattar 150 personer med stroke i Uganda. Nästa steg är att utveckla en mobiltelefon-applikation för SIS i samarbete med Institutionerna för datavetenskap vid Stockholms universitet och Makerereuniversitetet i Uganda. I fas II utvecklas och utvärderas den mobiltelefon stödjande klientcentrerade ADL-interventionen (MCADL) i en pilotstudie (RCT-design) som inkluderar en interventionsgrupp (MCADL) (n=25) och en kontrollgrupp som erbjuds konventionell rehabilitering (n=25). SIS används som utvärderingsinstrument och kvalitativa intervjuer genomförs med personer med stroke, familjemedlemmar och rehabiliteringspersonal i syfte att beskriva upplevelser under rehabiliteringsprocessen. Projektets förväntade betydelse: Projektet kommer att generera ny kunskap om hur mobiltelefoner kan användas i rehabiliteringen efter stroke vilket i sin tur kan bidra till att öka tillgängligheten och minska kostnaderna för dessa rehabiliteringsinsatser. Idag saknas rehabiliteringsprogram för personer med stroke i Uganda.

Betel is known as carcinogenic but little is known about health risks for mother and fetus. Studies suggest that health risks are similar to that of undernourishment in early life; adverse pregnancy outcome, poor fetal and infant growth and increased risk for metabolic syndrome in adulthood. Thus if poor nutrition and betel chewing are combined synergetic affects are plausible. Set in a rural Bangladesh the aim is to evaluate the health consequences for mother and offspring of betel chewing. A community based cohort of 4700 pregnant women will be followed repeatedly from gestation wk 8-10 until infant is 1y. Outcome data on maternal nutrition (wt, ht, body composition, skinfolds, circumferences) and metabolic status (insulin, glucose, lipid profile, blood pressure) fetal growth (ultrasound), adverse pregnancy outcome, size at birth, growth and infant nutritional status (wt, ht, skinfolds, circumferences) be collected. Proposed mechanisms for the toxicity of betel chewing will be evaluated by biomarkers (vit D, vit B-12, folate, crp, agp) in blood samples in pregnancy, at delivery (cord) and infancy. Exposure assessment will include the different ingredients in betel chew and indicators developed that will enable dose-effect analyses of exposure on the outcomes. As the research team includes capacity of large scale interventions it is expected that research results rapidly may be turned into action Tuggande av betelnötter är vanligt i Asien, och det är också vanligt hos gravida kvinnor. Betelnötter innehåller kända cancerframkallande substanser men det finns väldigt lite kunskap om hälsoriskerna för den gravida kvinnan, fostret och barnet. En del studier har påvisat hälsorisker av samma typ som undernäring framkallar: missfall, dödfödda barn, tillväxthämning av fostret, långsammare tillväxt hos barnet och ökad risk för metabola rubbningar (metabolt syndrom) relativt tidigt i livet. Ifall undernäring och tuggande av betelnötter sammanfaller finns risken för samverkande negativa effekter. Den här studien genomförs på landsbygden i Bangladesh i ett landsbygdsområde där ett hälsoövervakningssystem möjliggör komplexa uppföljningsstudier över tid. Målsättningen är att utvärdera hälsokonsekvenserna av tuggande av betelnötter under graviditet för modern och för barnet. En befolkningsbaserad kohort av 4700 gravida kvinnor kommer att följas från 8 veckors graviditetsålder till 1 års ålder på barnet. Identifieringen av kvinnor i tidig graviditet möjliggörs av hälsoövervakningen med månatliga hembesök. Den gravida kvinnans nutritionsstatus kommer att mätas (vikt, längd, kroppssammansättning, hudveck, omfångsmått över tid) och metabola markörer (insulin, glukos, blodfetter, blodtryck), fostrets tillväxt med hjälp av upprepade ultraljud, graviditetsutfall, kroppsmått vid födelsen av barnet, barnets tillväxt över tid (vikt, längd, hudveck, omfångsmått). Vi kommer att analysera om tuggande av betelnötter påverkar biomarkörer (vitamin D, vitamin B12, folat, och inflammationsmarkörer) i blodprov under graviditet, vid förlossningen (navelsträngsblod) och hos barnet under spädbarnsåret. Vi kommer att värdera de olika ingredienserna i beteltuggandet och mått kommer att utvecklas för att analysera doser och effekter av betelbruket. Då forskargruppen innehåller representanter för den största icke-statliga organisationen i Bangladesh (BRAC) med kapacitet för stora befolkningsbaserade interventioner är vår förväntan att resultat som indikerar allvarliga konsekvenser för folkhälsan snabbt kan leda till påverkan på policy och implementering av befolkningsbaserade interventioner.

Studies suggest that health risks are similar to that of undernourishment in early life; adverse pregnancy outcome, poor fetal and infant growth and increased risk for metabolic syndrome in adulthood. Thus if poor nutrition and betel chewing are combined synergetic affects are plausible. Set in a rural Bangladesh the aim is to evaluate the health consequences for mother and offspring of betel chewing. A community based cohort of 4700 pregnant women will be followed repeatedly from gestation wk 8-10 until infant is 1y. Outcome data on maternal nutrition (wt, ht, body composition, skinfolds, circumferences) and metabolic status (insulin, glucose, lipid profile, blood pressure) fetal growth (ultrasound), adverse pregnancy outcome, size at birth, growth and infant nutritional status (wt, ht, skinfolds, circumferences) be collected. Proposed mechanisms for the toxicity of betel chewing will be evaluated by biomarkers (vit D, vit B-12, folate, crp, agp) in blood samples in pregnancy, at delivery (cord) and infancy. Exposure assessment will include the different ingredients in betel chew and indicators developed that will enable dose-effect analyses of exposure on the outcomes. As the research team includes capacity of large scale interventions it is expected that research results rapidly may be turned into action Tuggande av betelnötter är vanligt i Asien, och det är också vanligt hos gravida kvinnor. Betelnötter innehåller kända cancerframkallande substanser men det finns väldigt lite kunskap om hälsoriskerna för den gravida kvinnan, fostret och barnet. En del studier har påvisat hälsorisker av samma typ som undernäring framkallar: missfall, dödfödda barn, tillväxthämning av fostret, långsammare tillväxt hos barnet och ökad risk för metabola rubbningar (metabolt syndrom) relativt tidigt i livet. Ifall undernäring och tuggande av betelnötter sammanfaller finns risken för samverkande negativa effekter. Den här studien genomförs på landsbygden i Bangladesh i ett landsbygdsområde där ett hälsoövervakningssystem möjliggör komplexa uppföljningsstudier över tid. Målsättningen är att utvärdera hälsokonsekvenserna av tuggande av betelnötter under graviditet för modern och för barnet. En befolkningsbaserad kohort av 4700 gravida kvinnor kommer att följas från 8 veckors graviditetsålder till 1 års ålder på barnet. Identifieringen av kvinnor i tidig graviditet möjliggörs av hälsoövervakningen med månatliga hembesök. Den gravida kvinnans nutritionsstatus kommer att mätas (vikt, längd, kroppssammansättning, hudveck, omfångsmått över tid) och metabola markörer (insulin, glukos, blodfetter, blodtryck), fostrets tillväxt med hjälp av upprepade ultraljud, graviditetsutfall, kroppsmått vid födelsen av barnet, barnets tillväxt över tid (vikt, längd, hudveck, omfångsmått). Vi kommer att analysera om tuggande av betelnötter påverkar biomarkörer (vitamin D, vitamin B12, folat, och inflammationsmarkörer) i blodprov under graviditet, vid förlossningen (navelsträngsblod) och hos barnet under spädbarnsåret. Vi kommer att värdera de olika ingredienserna i beteltuggandet och mått kommer att utvecklas för att analysera doser och effekter av betelbruket. Då forskargruppen innehåller representanter för den största icke-statliga organisationen i Bangladesh (BRAC) med kapacitet för stora befolkningsbaserade interventioner är vår förväntan att resultat som indikerar allvarliga konsekvenser för folkhälsan snabbt kan leda till påverkan på policy och implementering av befolkningsbaserade interventioner.

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. Men på grund av att både malariamyggor och de farligaste malariaparasiterna i stora delar av världen utvecklat motståndskraft mot dessa metoder hotas nu hållbarheten och den långsiktiga framgången med dessa program. 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. De studier som lett fram till denna utveckling är de första i sitt slag och skapar unika möjligheter för utveckling av nya bekämpningsmetoder. 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.

This project is divided in three parts. 1. Diseased finger-millet materials will be collected in East Africa together with infected wild grasses. Fungal DNA will be used to clarify prevalent Magnaporthe species, something that is unknown, via sequencing loci used for earlier phylogenetic groupings. Next step is to select isolates for genome re-sequencing based on deviating phylogeny and host interactions. DNA/RNA will be prepared and send for sequencing at SciLifeLab. The data will give us evolutionary information but most importantly knowledge on effector disease-promoting proteins that differ between continents and plant hosts. 2. Here we plan to develop an effector-screen to monitor finger-millet collections in order to characterize specific host responses. This approach lays the basis of a new optimized use of genetic resources in finger-millet breeding aiming to achieve durable resistance in the new varieties. In parallel new finger millet genotypes will be collected, evaluated, and passed over to ongoing traditional breeding initiatives. 3. We plan to set up and evaluate a mixed cropping system with legumes. This approach aims at further reducing the Magnaporthe population, selection pressure and weeds, improve soil fertility, and generate added values by growing improved and highly nutritious crops. I Afrika odlas många grödor som är okända i Sverige. Finger-millet är ett sådant exempel med ax som påminner om tre uppsträckta fingrar. Det är en stråsädesgröda som odlats under tusentals år i Afrika och man tror även att den har sitt ursprung där till skillnad från till exempel majs som introducerades från Amerika till Afrika för drygt 100 år sedan. Det intressanta med finger-millet är att den är torktålig och har mycket bättre proteinhalt och mikronäringsämnen jämfört med andra cerealier men skördarna är låga. En annan fördel är att kornen i axen har ett skikt som gör det svårt för insekter att attackera dem. Därför är finger-millet en gröda som tål lagring vilket kan vara livsavgörande under perioder med dålig livsmedelsförsörjning i övrigt. Det sortmaterial som är anpassat till afrikanska odlingsförutsättningar har en mycket stor potential att utvecklas då stora genetiska resurser finns tillgängliga just i Afrika. Angrepp av svampar inom Magnaporthe-släktet utgör idag det allra största hotet mot en bra skörd. Angreppen på finger-millet har ökat starkt de senaste åren och många tror att det kan kopplas till klimatförändringarna som gynnar denna typ av sjukdomsalstrande organism. I dagsläget är det oklart vilken svampart det är som angriper finger-millet. I detta projekt planerar vi att samla in infekterat material i Östra Afrika från finger-millet och vilda gräs som växer i eller bredvid fälten. Från detta kommer rena kulturer av Magnaporthe-svampen att odlas upp för att göra en artbestämning baserat på DNA-analys. Samtidigt kan informationen användas för att klargöra sammansättningen av svamp-populationen. Vi har redan indikationer om att nya svampvarianter har bildats och planerar därför att välja ut 1-3 unika typer för en fördjupad genomsekvensering. Vi kommer här att få stor nytta av de genomdata som redan finns på Magnaporthe. Från detta arbete kommer vi att kunna klargöra evolutionära händelser t.ex. om olika Magnaporthe-arter har korsat sig och bildat en ny variant. Det kanske absolut viktigaste är att vi kommer att kunna identifiera grupper av proteiner som är viktiga för att svampen skall kunna angripa och tillväxa på sin växtvärd, så kallade effektorer. Kunskap om denna kategori av proteiner kommer att utnyttjas för att identifiera olika typer av resistensgener i växtmaterialet. Det vill säga man kan karaktärisera genresurserna mycket noggrant och därefter välja olika föräldramaterial som skall ingå i korsningarna för att producera bättre sorter med hållbar motståndskraft. När vi samlar in infekterat material kommer vi också att passa på att samla in vilda varianter av finger-millet. Detta gör vi för att komplettera det redan tillgängliga förädlingsresursen i området. Under tiden vi arbetar med svampen kommer vi att utvärdera det insamlade materialet i fält för att bedöma om något ska inkluderas i det redan pågående förädlingsarbetet. För att inte förlora tid vi kommer att köra två parallella spår. Dels optimera de pågående förädlingsprogrammen dels lägga upp en ny strategi för hur de genetiska resurserna bäst kan komma till nytta baserat på kunskap om deras olika resistensegenskaper mot Magnaporthe. För att ytterligare förbättra odlingsförutsättningarna kommer samodling mellan finger-millet och olika baljväxtgrödor att undersökas. Detta görs för att minska antalet svampsporer, reducera tillväxt av ogräs och för att förbättra näringen i den näringsfattiga jorden via kvävefixerande baljväxter. Att kombinera olika åtgärder för att minska skördeförluster hos olika grödor kallas integrerat växtskydd. Naturligtvis kommer baljväxterna att också analyseras med avseende på tillväxt, anpassning under odlingssäsong och skörd. Baljväxter och finger-millet ger tillsammans en mycket väl balanserad komposition av viktiga näringsämnen för både människor och husdjur.

Unfortunately, the world leading pharmaceutical companies mainly develop new drugs to satisfy the demand of the industrialized countries, and therefore drug development against these diseases receives relatively small attention. Our research proposal is directed to development of new catalytic procedures for new drugs and drug intermediates against malaria, tuberculosis and HIV. The basic strategy is the so called *carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bond activation*. This is a modern synthetic methodology, which is environmentally benign, cost-efficient and operationally simple. However, development of catalytic C-H activation methods require explicit knowledge to control the complicated chemical processes. The specific goals of the research are development of new C-H activation based methods for synthesis of quinoline (anti malarial), benzofurane (anti-tubercular and anti HIV), cyclic sulfonamide (anti-HIV) based drugs. The successful achievement of the research proposal will contribute to establishment of this important new research area in India (in IIT Bombay), Ph.D. education of research fellows and dissemination of this important synthetic technology in the Indian research society. The technology transfer to the domestic Indian pharmaceutical research companies, will help to find new drugs for treatment of malaria, tuberculosis and HIV improving the services of the Indian health-care sector. Malaria, tuberkulos och HIV innebär stora problem för det indiska samhället och för många u-länder. I Indien finns nio insektsarter som sprider malaria, och årligen smittas ungefär två miljoner människor varav ca. 1000 dör. Enligt WHOs uppskattning är dock den verkliga siffran mycket högre eftersom det finns många oanmälda fall. Situationen är svårast i de fattigaste delstaterna i Indien. Det finns ca. 2.1 miljoner HIV smittade i de svårast drabbade delstaterna Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra och Tamil Nadu. Tuberkulos, framför allt bland HIV positiva är också ett stort problem. Det finns ca. 2-2.5 miljoner tuberkulossmittade i Indien, vilket gör Indien till ett av de mest tuberkulosdrabbade länderna i världen. Naturligtvis satsar Indien stora resurser för att bekämpa malaria, tuberkulos och HIV, men det finns också ett stort biståndsbehov. Det största problemet är att internationella läkemedelsbolag främst utvecklar nya mediciner som i-ländernas konsumenter efterfrågar. Därför får u-ländernas behov, som tex läkemedel mot malaria, tuberkulos och billiga mediciner mot HIV en ganska liten uppmärksamhet. Vår ansökan är inriktad mot utveckling av nya läkemedelssubstanser mot dessa sjukdomar. Vi planerar att använda en ny kraftfull metod som kallas för *kol-vätebindningsaktivering eller C-H aktivering*. Metoden är miljövänlig, billig och enkel att genomföra. Dock krävs en djup förståelse av de bakomliggande kemiska processerna för en framgångsrik implementering av metoden. Min forskargrupp (KJS) har en lång erfarenhet inom utveckling av C-H aktiveringsreaktioner. Professor Maitis grupp (Indian Institute of Technology Bombay) har ett stort interesse för utveckling av nya processer för heterocykliska läkemedelssubstanser mot malaria, tuberkulos och HIV. Ett samarbete skulle bli fördelaktigt för båda forskargupperna. Professor Maiti är en begåvad och lovande ung forskare i början av sin karriär. Min grupp (KJS) kan bidra med våra erfarenhet och kunskaper till hjälp för professor Maiti att etablera sig inom området C-H aktivering. Dessutom får min grupp en god inblick i utveckling av läkemedel med hjälp av C-H aktivering. Forskningsresultat från det gemensamma projektet hjälper till att etablera katalytisk C-H aktivering i Indien (vid IIT Bombay). Dessutom får de doktorander som jobbar med projektet en speciell utbildning i läkemedelsutveckling med C-H aktivering. Två av doktoranderna (av tre som är länkade till projektet) kommer att utbildas i Indien. Dessa forskare kan sedan sprida C-H aktiveringsmetoden till den indiska kemiindustrin. En spridning av våra forskningsresultat antas att bidra till att indiska läkemedelsföretag får en bättre teknologi för att tillverka läkemedel mot malaria, tuberkulos och HIV. Det leder i sin tur till en bättre sjukvård och bättre levnadsvillkor i Indien.

Ett samarbete skulle bli fördelaktigt för båda forskargupperna. Professor Maiti är en begåvad och lovande ung forskare i början av sin karriär. Min grupp (KJS) kan bidra med våra erfarenhet och kunskaper till hjälp för professor Maiti att etablera sig inom området C-H aktivering. Dessutom får min grupp en god inblick i utveckling av läkemedel med hjälp av C-H aktivering. Forskningsresultat från det gemensamma projektet hjälper till att etablera katalytisk C-H aktivering i Indien (vid IIT Bombay). Dessutom får de doktorander som jobbar med projektet en speciell utbildning i läkemedelsutveckling med C-H aktivering. Två av doktoranderna (av tre som är länkade till projektet) kommer att utbildas i Indien. Dessa forskare kan sedan sprida C-H aktiveringsmetoden till den indiska kemiindustrin. En spridning av våra forskningsresultat antas att bidra till att indiska läkemedelsföretag får en bättre teknologi för att tillverka läkemedel mot malaria, tuberkulos och HIV. Det leder i sin tur till en bättre sjukvård och bättre levnadsvillkor i Indien.

It is expected to be positively affected by anthropogenic global warming, and is hence projected to become increasingly important in the future. The greatest threats to Africa´s cassava crop are two viral diseases, transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci, which are currently spreading throughout Africa. There is an urgent need for effective and sustainable strategies to control the vector. The project aims at developing novel control strategies for managing whiteflies on cassava based on insights into the chemical ecology of the species. The project is a collaboration between my group at Lund University and the International Institute for Tropical Agriculture (IITA), an Africa-based international not-for-profit research-for-development organization. The project combines my group´s expertise in insect neuroscience, with IITA´s extensive knowledge in plant biology and agricultural research for development. My skills are complimentary to those of the co-applicant Dr J.P. Legg (expert in plant virology), and the project itself multidisciplinary. The project will involve screenhouse and open field behavioral trials, analytical chemistry, electrophysiology, next-gen sequencing and genetics. We will deliver: Information about odor guided choice in whiteflies; Characterization of cassava volatiles; First mapping of the whitefly´s olfactory system; The identification of whitefly volatile repellents. Kassava, eller maniok som den också kallas är ursprungligen en sydamerikansk växt, som numera utgör stapelgröda i stora delar av Afrika söder om Sahara. Kassava är av stor vikt för tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning i regionen, och har också på senare år kommit att bli en signifikant handelsvara i området och den primära inkomstkällan för många småbönder. Dess popularitet kan förklaras med att kassava är näringsrikt, lätt att odla och växer på fattiga jordar. Till skillnad mot andra viktig Afrikanska stapelgrödor, såsom majs, sorghum och hirs, så är kassava beständigt mot både extrem värme och torka. Kassavas betydelse som stapelgröda, samt för säkrad livsmedelsförsörjning i Afrika söder om Sahara beräknas också öka betydligt i framtiden i takt med stigande temperaturer och minskad nederbörd till följd av klimatförändringarna. Faktum är att kassava möjligen kan vara den bästa vägen framåt för afrikanska småbrukare för att säkerställa livsmedelsförsörjningen i regionen. Även om kassava är motståndskraftigt mot klimatförändringar, så är denna gröda allvarligt hotad av en rad sjukdomar. Två virussjukdomar - Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) och Cassava Brown Streak Disease (CBSD) - orsakar årligen enorm skada. Under de senaste decennierna har effekterna av CMD och CBSD blivit långtgående, och utgör nu ett direkt hot mot livsmedelsförsörjningen i stora delar av Afrika. CBSD sprider sig för närvarande genom östra, centrala och södra Afrika, och det finns en stor oro över risken för ytterligare spridning västerut, en utveckling som skulle kunna bli katastrofal då majoriteten av Afrikas kassava produceras i denna region. De virus som orsakar både CMD och CBSD sprids av vita flygare (Bemisia tabaci). Även om denna lilla skinnbagge har varit känd som vektor för dessa sjukdomar sedan 30-talet så har förvånansvärt lite ansträngningar och resurser lagts på forskning om insekten i sig, eller för att utveckla effektiva kontrollstrategier. Vårt projekt, vilket är ett samarbete mellan Lunds universitet och International Institute for Tropical Agriculture (Tanzania), syftar till att ge en grundläggande insikt i hur vita flygare hittar kassava. Vi har för avsikt att undersöka luktsinnet hos vita flygare och identifiera de doftsignaler som arten använder för att hitta sina värdväxter. Målet med denna forskning är att komma fram till hållbara och långsiktiga strategier för att kontrollera och manipulera vita flygare i kassavafält baserat på kemisk ekologisk metodik. Denna strategi har varit framgångsrik mot många andra skadeinsekter, men har ännu inte utnyttjats för vita flygare.

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. När flera grupper av intressenter med olika förväntningar och skiftande krav konkurrerar om de begränsade resurserna, utmanas möjligheten till långsiktigt hållbar förvaltning. Lösningar som kan tillgodose olika resursbehov på ett rättvist och uthålligt sätt behövs därför. Sverige och Tanzania har båda stora viltpopulationer i mångbrukade landskap, vilket skapar både utmaningar och möjligheter. Förutom konkurrens om bete och annan föda så utgör en del arter också direkta hot mot människor eller boskap. Samtidigt har dessa populationer stora värden som proteinkälla eller turistattraktion. 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. Trots betydelsen av dessa frågor så vet vi relativt lite om hur de rumsliga/geografiska, tidsmässiga och kontextuella faktorerna påverkar interaktioner mellan människa och vilt och vad de långsiktiga konsekvenserna är. 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?

This project aims to deepen our understanding of the links between ecosystem services, human well-being, and poverty in southern Africa, and evaluate the implications for ecosystem service based poverty alleviation strategies (ESBPAS). The project is organized around two PhD-projects at two linked scales that focus on i) ecosystem service bundles and their links to well-being and poverty, and ii) the role of cultural ecosystem services in contributing to well-being amongst the poor. We will combine qualitative and quantitative approaches, including GIS analyses, statistical modelling, surveys, PhotoVoice and focus group interviews. The project will build on an earlier u-Forsk project in the Eastern Cape of South Africa and include new sites in Mozambique. A substantive synthesis component is aimed at developing new cross-cutting insights on ecosystem service-human well-being links at different scales and the potential for combining ESBPAS to increase their impact on multiple dimensions of human well-being. The project also aims to build capacity and further develop science-policy networks through SAPECS, a regional network of scientists, practitioners and students engaged in comparative social-ecological syntheses to support improved stewardship of ecosystem services and poverty alleviation in the region. Ny kunskap och metoder för att förbättra ekosystemtjänst-baserade strategier för fattigdomsbekämpning i södra Afrika Hälften av befolkningen i Afrika söder om Sahara lever i extrem fattigdom på mindre än 10 kronor per dag och tillgång till ekosystemtjänster är ofta av kritisk betydelse för deras försörjning, hälsa, trygghet, samt sociala relationer. Fungerande fattigdomsbekämpning i en värld där både de ekosystem och de samhällen som fattiga lever i är i ständig förändring - på grund av globala ekonomiska processer såväl som klimat och miljöförändringar - kräver en förståelse av komplexa och dynamiska samband mellan sociala och ekologiska processer och hur de interagerar mellan lokala, nationella och regionala skalor. Vårt fokus ligger på hur man kan säkerställa viktiga ekologiska funktioner, eller tjänster, som underbygger mänskligt välbefinnande, och faktorer som skapar förutsättningar för deras hållbara nyttjande. Ekosystemtjänster, eller den nytta som människor erhåller från ekosystem, inbegriper både direkta ?varor? som till exempel rent vatten eller grödor, processer som reglerar till exempel klimatet eller effekten av extrema väderförhållanden som översvämmningar, samt så kallade kuturella tjänster som rekreation, och estetiska eller spirituella värden. Forskningen kring ekosystemtjänster är ett växande fält men flera områden behöver ytterligare beforskas. Ett exempel är hur och i vilken utsträckning strategier för fattigdomsbekämpning som bygger på ekosystemtjänster faktiskt bidrar till ökat mänskligt välbefinnande, och hur olika strategier (som till exempel ekoturism, jordbruksstöd, och kompensation för skogsplantering), påverkar varandra. I detta projekt studerar vi i synnerhet hur olika ekosystemtjänser samverkar med varandra och med olika aspekter av välbefinnande och fattigdom (såsom basala behov, hälsa, och sociala relationer), samt betydelsen av kulturella ekosystemtjänster för upplevt välbefinnande. Studien fokuserar på Östra Kapprovinsen, som är den fattigaste delen i Sydafrika, men vi planerar även jämförande studier i Mozambique. Projektet är tvärvetenskapligt och använder kvantitativa (rusmliga analyser av ekosystemtjänster, enkäter för att utvärdera kulturella värden av ekosystem samt upplevd välbefinnande) såväl som kvalitativa metoder (fokusgrupper, intervjuer). En central del av projektet är att föra samman insikter från studier på lokala och regionala nivåer, för att öka förståelsen av hur ekosystemtjänster och deras bidrag till mänskligt välbefinnande genereras, uppfattas och påverkar varandra på olika skalor. Till exempel, ett skogsområde kan lokalt vara högt värderat för tillgången på brännved eller virke, eller som en plats för kulturella ceremonier (materiella och kulturella ekosystemtjänster), medans på global nivå främst ses som en kolsänka och ett bidrag till klimatreglering (reglerande ekosystemtjänst). Projektet syftar till att ge nya insikter kring hur ekosystemtjänster kan bidra ökat välbefinnande inom flera aspekter, samt hur vår förståelse kring detta kan bidra till bättre strategier för fattigdomsbekämpning. Vi kommer att bidra med ny kunskap, samt utveckla nya verktyg och metoder för integrerad förståelse av ekosystemtjänster och välbefinnande. Vidare kommer vi som en del av projektet att aktivt utveckla nätverk och samarbete mellan forskning, praktik och beslutsfattande, både lokalt, regionalt, samt inom globala processes, som den nya internationella plattformen för biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster, IPBES.

Till exempel, ett skogsområde kan lokalt vara högt värderat för tillgången på brännved eller virke, eller som en plats för kulturella ceremonier (materiella och kulturella ekosystemtjänster), medans på global nivå främst ses som en kolsänka och ett bidrag till klimatreglering (reglerande ekosystemtjänst). Projektet syftar till att ge nya insikter kring hur ekosystemtjänster kan bidra ökat välbefinnande inom flera aspekter, samt hur vår förståelse kring detta kan bidra till bättre strategier för fattigdomsbekämpning. Vi kommer att bidra med ny kunskap, samt utveckla nya verktyg och metoder för integrerad förståelse av ekosystemtjänster och välbefinnande. Vidare kommer vi som en del av projektet att aktivt utveckla nätverk och samarbete mellan forskning, praktik och beslutsfattande, både lokalt, regionalt, samt inom globala processes, som den nya internationella plattformen för biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster, IPBES.

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 and dependant on each other. Several important fish species connect multiple habitats by ontogenetic- and foraging migrations. 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, (2) compare connectivity in tropical and subtropical regions in order to generalise results, and (3) include local ecological knowledge (LEK) to complement scientific knowledge on connectivity and engage local fishers in management of marine resources. The application of landscape ecology, using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) combined with fish census, will be used to gather data for aim (1) and (2). Through semi-structured interviews with local fishers data will be gathered for aim (3). Studies will be conducted in East Africa (Tanzania/Mozambique) and Brazil through the collaboration and knowledge exchange between leading scientists from both regions. 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. En sammanställning av information runt Zanzibar i Tanzania visade 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 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 minimumavstånd mellan habitat krävs 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 som nyligen börjat användas i marina miljöer 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. För att kunna förvalta hela Östafrikas kustremsa på ett hållbart sätt behöver vi även förstå hur habitat i subtropiska havslandskap är länkade, då Östafrikas kust (Kenya till södra Mocambique) innefattar både tropiska och subtropiska miljöer. Är det samma habitat som används som uppväxtområden i subtropikerna som i tropikerna? Vilka habitat används som uppväxtområden om mangrove och sjögräs saknas? Algbälten? Kan samma typ av förvaltning fungera i båda områdena? Dessa frågor vill vi besvara genom att göra studier i subtropikerna och jämföra med de kunskaper vi har i tropikerna. Kunskaperna från våra tidigare studier i Tanzania kan därför komma till användning i Mocambique genom detta sammarbete. För att testa våra hypoteser i andra regioner har vi också ett sammarbete med Brasilien, ett land med en liknande kustremsa av både tropiska och subtropiska miljöer. Slutligen kommer vi 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 av lokala fiskare i kustförvaltningen, något som tidigare varit ett problem i bl.a. Mocambique. Resultaten från dessa studier kommer att öka vår förståelse för hur havslandskapen är länkade i tropiska och subtropiska miljöer samt bidra med kunskap om viktiga tröskelvärden som kan kommuniceras till förvaltare.

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.

Trots förekomsten av en lång rad andra problem är några av de allra största hindren för Afrikas utveckling förknippade med insekter. Myggburna sjukdomar, under samlingstermen malaria, är bland de mest kända problemen. Konsekvensen är ytterst dödlig, drabbar i hög grad barn och orsakar ett stort antal dödfödslar. Malaria leder till ett mycket stort antal sjukdagar och nersatt arbetsförmåga. Utöver malaria finns en mängd andra insektsrelaterade komplikationer, som helt eller delvist kan spolera boskapskötsel och lantbruk. Problem med insektssmitta och invaderande skadedjur drabbar i första hand den fattiga befolkningen på landsbygden och får därför förstärkt effekt. Läran om insekter, entomologi, bygger idag mestedels på studier av insekter infångade med håv eller i olika sorts fällor. Även om dessa metoder har gett stor kunskap om insekters morfologi och genetik på individnivå, har de också en mängd brister, speciellt för förståelsen av insektsmängd på landskapsnivå: Hur många fångas in av de som finns? Vilka arter, köns- och åldersgrupper fångas och med vilka proportioner? Är infångningen representativ? Hur långt flyger insekter i sina naturliga habitat och hur snabbt i relation till vind och väder? Vi är en sammansatt grupp forskare från de två Linné-programmen Centre for Animal Movement (CAnMove) och Lund Laser Centre (LLC) med specialkunskaper inom ekologisk entomologi resp. laser-radar-teknik. Vi har de senaste åren utvecklat optiska metoder för att räkna och klassificera insekter och flygriktingar på kilometerlånga avstånd med hjälp av teleskop och lasrar. Största delen insekter är flygande och kan således betraktas som luftpartiklar med en rad speciella egenskaper. Med de etablerade lasermetoderna för atmosfärsstudier har vi en unik möjlighet at bidra med ny kunskap om de mekanismer som orsakar några av de allvarligaste problemen på den Afrikanska kontinenten. Vår grupp har i mer än tjugo år arbetat och stött afrikanska forskare, bl.a. genom det internationella vetenskapsprogrammet ISP-SIDA, Uppsala. Som ett exempel utvecklade vi på en workshop 2012 vid det intenationella centret för insektsvetenskap, ICIPE i Nairobi, kompakta system för fjärranalys av insekter. Dessa finns nu på laboratorier i Senegal, Mali, Elfenbenskusten, Ghana, Burkina Faso och Kenya. Vi söker nu finansiering för en doktorandtjänst, med syftet att förbättra, kalibrera och använda dessa system på plats med lokala forskare med tillämpning på lokala problem. Under vinterhalvåret anordnas åtminstone en årlig tropisk fältkampanj där doktoranden, svenska och lokala fysiker och biologer deltar. Doktoranden kommer dessutom att ha tillgång till laser-radarutrustning av större komplexitetsgrad i Lund och hos internationella samarbetspartners. Sommartid kommer årligen en fältkampanj anordnas i Sverige i samarbete med svenska biologer. Denna aktivitet ger möjlighet att uppnå färdigheter och att testa avancerade koncept innan de implementeras i tropikerna.

Med de etablerade lasermetoderna för atmosfärsstudier har vi en unik möjlighet at bidra med ny kunskap om de mekanismer som orsakar några av de allvarligaste problemen på den Afrikanska kontinenten. Vår grupp har i mer än tjugo år arbetat och stött afrikanska forskare, bl.a. genom det internationella vetenskapsprogrammet ISP-SIDA, Uppsala. Som ett exempel utvecklade vi på en workshop 2012 vid det intenationella centret för insektsvetenskap, ICIPE i Nairobi, kompakta system för fjärranalys av insekter. Dessa finns nu på laboratorier i Senegal, Mali, Elfenbenskusten, Ghana, Burkina Faso och Kenya. Vi söker nu finansiering för en doktorandtjänst, med syftet att förbättra, kalibrera och använda dessa system på plats med lokala forskare med tillämpning på lokala problem. Under vinterhalvåret anordnas åtminstone en årlig tropisk fältkampanj där doktoranden, svenska och lokala fysiker och biologer deltar. Doktoranden kommer dessutom att ha tillgång till laser-radarutrustning av större komplexitetsgrad i Lund och hos internationella samarbetspartners. Sommartid kommer årligen en fältkampanj anordnas i Sverige i samarbete med svenska biologer. Denna aktivitet ger möjlighet att uppnå färdigheter och att testa avancerade koncept innan de implementeras i tropikerna.

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.

The improvement of noug (Guizotia abyssinica) is therefore thought to significantly contribute towards the country?s food security and sustainable development and self-sufficiency in edible oil. As the global population continues to grow, food security issues become more important and demand for diverse and high-quality seed oils continues to increase. Thus, investment in the improvement of noug will likely be of benefit beyond Ethiopia?s borders and could potentially lead to the expansion of the crop to new areas. We aim to increase yield and nutritional values of noug through the use of recently developed genotypes as well as through characterization of noug gene pool in farmer participatory trials. In the proposed project, we will determine breeding values of noug through evaluation across a variety of agro-ecological zones in Ethiopia to match landraces with local agricultural conditions; conduct pre-breeding to fully exploit the noug gene pool and improve yield, oil content and nutritional quality; develop genomic tools for noug to accelerate breeding programs and generate knowledge that enable the employment of marker-assisted breeding. We will make direct contributions to sustainable agricultural development in Ethiopia through the provision of superior planting material for noug, and facilitate better income generation for noug growers and their families.

New low cost energy resources, such as rice husk, straw and coconut shell briquettes are needed since wood has become scarce and the price increases continuously. Unfortunately the new energy resources accelerate the problem with high concentrations of particles and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. WHO states that air pollution is the largest single environmental health risk and most severe is the household pollution due to indoor smoke from cooking fuel. The objective of this project is to develop better understanding of how soot particles are formed in biomass combustion, how they burn in the fire and how the resulting ash can be removed from the exhaust. At Gadjah Mada University in Indonesia we will do experimental studies of how briquettes of different design will burn and form soot. At Chalmers University we will focus on how soot particles burn in the fire and can be trapped downstream. The co-workers in Indonesia have experience in briquette manufacturing and small scale biomass combustion. The group at Chalmers has experience in Computational Fluid Dynamics and in removing and burning particles in diesel exhaust. The combined knowledge will lead to new understanding and design concepts that can be used for making new stoves and furnaces with low emissions. Luftburna partiklar är globalt det absolut största miljöproblemet. WHO uppskattade i sin senaste rapport från 2014 att ca 7 miljoner människor dör per år (1/8 av alla dödsfall) på grund av luftburna föroreningar där partiklar är den allvarligaste komponenten. Av dessa 7 miljoner uppskattar man att 4,3 miljoner dödsfall per år är relaterade till inomhusluften. Förbränning av biomassa, främst ved har traditionellt varit den främsta källan till småskalig energiproduktion. I den industrialiserade delen av världen har vi gått över till billig el men i resten av världen är fortfarande småskalig förbränning av biomassa mycket viktigt. Denna förbränning har aldrig varit miljövänlig och mycket behöver göras för att få ner emissionerna till acceptabla nivåer. Utsläppen har t.o.m. förvärrats under senare år genom att ved blivit dyrare och nu alltmer ersätts av restprodukter från jord- och skogsbruk t.ex. risskal och halm. Avdelningen för Kemiteknik på Chalmers har haft långt samarbete med Gadjah Mada University (UGM) i Yogyakarta. Hittills har sex doktorander som fått sin grundutbildning vid UGM disputerat vid avdelningen för Kemiteknik på Chalmers. Alla dessa är för närvarande lärare eller forskare på olika universitet i Indonesien varav fem på UGM. För närvarande är två studenter från UGM anställda som doktorander vid Kemiteknik på Chalmers. Målet för det föreslagna projektet är att åstadkomma rena avgaser vid småskalig förbränning av biomassa. De sökande från Chalmers har erfarenhet av att arbeta med partikelinfångning och oxidation av sot för rening av avgaser från fordon. Gruppen vid UGM har arbetat med småskalig förbränning och tillverkning av briketter från biomassa. Vårt modellsystem är en enkel spis som vi bygger på Chalmers och vid UGM, en bakugn i Mocambique och en ugn för bränning av keramik i Indonesien. De två senare har vi redan gjort grundläggande studier på. Målet i dessa fall har varit bättre bränsleekonomi och bättre kvalitet på produkten. I detta projekt skall vi utveckla ett förbränningskoncept för ved och olika alternativ till vedeldning t.ex. briketter av risskall, halm eller kokosnötsskal. Vi behöver bättre förståelse för hur sotpartiklar bildas, hur de förbränns direkt i eldstaden och hur submikrometerstora partiklar kan fångas in och förbrännas med mycket lågt tryckfall. Det pågår flera projekt internationellt om hur spisar eldade med biomassa skall utformas och den kunskap om sotpartiklar som vi kan bidra med är central för att dessa spisar skall få ned emissionerna till acceptabla nivåer. I projektet kommer gruppen vid UGM att studera tillverkningen och förbränningen av briketter där briketter av olika kvalitet bränns under olika betingelser. Emissionerna mäts och partiklar samlas in för vidare studier på Chalmers där det finns en stor mängd utrustning för detta bl.a. mäts sotets reaktivitet. Partiklarnas egenskaper t.ex. storlek och reaktivitet behövs för att sedan kunna simulera olika tänkbara designer av förbränningsutrymme och partikelfällor. Förutom spisar och brännugnen i Yogyakarta har vi tillgång till partikelgenerator och partikelstorleksmätare på förbränningscentrum CERC på Chalmers för validering av simuleringarna. Målet är att vi vid projektslut har ett grundkunnande och utvecklat simuleringsmodeller som gör det möjligt att minimera alla toxiska emissioner vid förbränning av biomassa i olika utrustningar t.ex. spisar, bakugnar och små ugnar för bränning av keramik och tegel.

The group at Chalmers has experience in Computational Fluid Dynamics and in removing and burning particles in diesel exhaust. The combined knowledge will lead to new understanding and design concepts that can be used for making new stoves and furnaces with low emissions. Luftburna partiklar är globalt det absolut största miljöproblemet. WHO uppskattade i sin senaste rapport från 2014 att ca 7 miljoner människor dör per år (1/8 av alla dödsfall) på grund av luftburna föroreningar där partiklar är den allvarligaste komponenten. Av dessa 7 miljoner uppskattar man att 4,3 miljoner dödsfall per år är relaterade till inomhusluften. Förbränning av biomassa, främst ved har traditionellt varit den främsta källan till småskalig energiproduktion. I den industrialiserade delen av världen har vi gått över till billig el men i resten av världen är fortfarande småskalig förbränning av biomassa mycket viktigt. Denna förbränning har aldrig varit miljövänlig och mycket behöver göras för att få ner emissionerna till acceptabla nivåer. Utsläppen har t.o.m. förvärrats under senare år genom att ved blivit dyrare och nu alltmer ersätts av restprodukter från jord- och skogsbruk t.ex. risskal och halm. Avdelningen för Kemiteknik på Chalmers har haft långt samarbete med Gadjah Mada University (UGM) i Yogyakarta. Hittills har sex doktorander som fått sin grundutbildning vid UGM disputerat vid avdelningen för Kemiteknik på Chalmers. Alla dessa är för närvarande lärare eller forskare på olika universitet i Indonesien varav fem på UGM. För närvarande är två studenter från UGM anställda som doktorander vid Kemiteknik på Chalmers. Målet för det föreslagna projektet är att åstadkomma rena avgaser vid småskalig förbränning av biomassa. De sökande från Chalmers har erfarenhet av att arbeta med partikelinfångning och oxidation av sot för rening av avgaser från fordon. Gruppen vid UGM har arbetat med småskalig förbränning och tillverkning av briketter från biomassa. Vårt modellsystem är en enkel spis som vi bygger på Chalmers och vid UGM, en bakugn i Mocambique och en ugn för bränning av keramik i Indonesien. De två senare har vi redan gjort grundläggande studier på. Målet i dessa fall har varit bättre bränsleekonomi och bättre kvalitet på produkten. I detta projekt skall vi utveckla ett förbränningskoncept för ved och olika alternativ till vedeldning t.ex. briketter av risskall, halm eller kokosnötsskal. Vi behöver bättre förståelse för hur sotpartiklar bildas, hur de förbränns direkt i eldstaden och hur submikrometerstora partiklar kan fångas in och förbrännas med mycket lågt tryckfall. Det pågår flera projekt internationellt om hur spisar eldade med biomassa skall utformas och den kunskap om sotpartiklar som vi kan bidra med är central för att dessa spisar skall få ned emissionerna till acceptabla nivåer. I projektet kommer gruppen vid UGM att studera tillverkningen och förbränningen av briketter där briketter av olika kvalitet bränns under olika betingelser. Emissionerna mäts och partiklar samlas in för vidare studier på Chalmers där det finns en stor mängd utrustning för detta bl.a. mäts sotets reaktivitet. Partiklarnas egenskaper t.ex. storlek och reaktivitet behövs för att sedan kunna simulera olika tänkbara designer av förbränningsutrymme och partikelfällor. Förutom spisar och brännugnen i Yogyakarta har vi tillgång till partikelgenerator och partikelstorleksmätare på förbränningscentrum CERC på Chalmers för validering av simuleringarna. Målet är att vi vid projektslut har ett grundkunnande och utvecklat simuleringsmodeller som gör det möjligt att minimera alla toxiska emissioner vid förbränning av biomassa i olika utrustningar t.ex. spisar, bakugnar och små ugnar för bränning av keramik och tegel.

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). Titel: Kampen mot korruption och uppgörelser och kartellbildning i utvecklingsländer: Teori och Empiri från Brasilien Korruption och fattigdom är ofta oavhängiga och att bekämpa korruption tycks lättare sagt än gjort då problemet många gånger är djupt rotade i många utvecklingsländer. Eftersom korruption genomsyrar statliga myndigheter, så hindrar detta själva verktyget som var tänkt att motverka det där polis, lagstadgande myndigheter och rättsväsendet blir en del av problemet självt. Att hitta verktyg att stävja korruption är därför av yttersta vikt och huvudsyftet med projektet. Framsteg inom området har utsikten att öka likväl ekonomisk tillväxt som institutionell utveckling. Korruptionsbekämpning är av särskild vikt i arbetet att öka tilltron till samhället och demokratin. Projektet syftar till att öka förståelsen och kunskapen kring nya tillämpbara verktyg för utvecklingsländer i synnerhet. Verktyg som tjänstgör genom skydd- benådning- whistleblowing- och belöningssystem för den som uppdagar korruption inom sin egen organisation eller sitt bolag, eller som uppger att denne tillsammans med andra har begått korrupt verksamhet eller kartellverksamhet. Projektet kommer först teoretiskt att genomlysa benådningssystemens och whistleblowings-systemens möjligheter att bryta de karaktäristiska, förtroenderelationerna mellan korrupta parter samt att vidare belysa motsvarande verktygs potential att bryta karteller. För det andra, och kanske viktigast, kommer projektet empiriskt undersöka två viktiga fall av korruptionsbekämpning och förslösning av offentliga medel. Det två fallen kommer från ett land i utveckling för vilket det finns tillförlitlig data. För första gången någonsin kommer detta också att innefatta studiet av interaktionen mellan hemligt samförstånd och korruption. Både *Siemens-fallet* och *Stadion-fallet* är från Brasilien. Båda dessa fall kommer att direkta implikationer för politiska åtgärder om hur benådning och whistleblowing system ska utformas och genomföras för att de ska få en direkt påverkan på korruptionsbekämpning och anbudsmanipulationer. Till detta kopplas också källorna till korruption och ineffektivitet i stora statliga upphandlingar av omfattande infrastruktur projekt i utvecklingsländer.

However, so far REDD has been unable to curb the drivers of deforestation when facing complex realities of expanding agricultural frontiers, large-scale infrastructure projects and irrepressible markets. Smallholders´ multiple land uses play a central role in fighting climate change and as an important provider of ecosystem services (ES). This research therefore proposes to rethink how ES management and climate mitigation measures can be achieved. While approaching ES from a landscape perspective, this research seeks to investigate smallholders´ motivations and actions for ES management and how these might promote forest cover maintenance, and other forms of ES provision at the same time as it meet the smallholders´ livelihood needs. This will be investigated by using ethnographic and PRA methods in two contrasting country case studies, Brazil and Nepal. These findings will feed into a larger local discussion on motivations for ES management and potential incentive structures for collective action. Finally, the bureaucratic structures, processes and assemblages affecting such actions will be explored. This project engages with the timely and important issue of maintenance of ES, highlighting smallholders´ potential as contributors in ES management and climate change mitigation. En av de största utmaningarna för att hejda den globala uppvärmningen är att stoppa den pågående avskogningen i världen. Det görs stora ansträngningar på ett internationellt plan för att åstadkomma detta. Ett exempel på sådana ansträngningar är det FN-stödda REDD-programmet. Programmet fokuserar på olika grupper, ofta småbrukare och ursprungsfolk, som har etablerat sig på marker som globalt anses viktiga för att generera ekosystemtjänster (så som att reglera klimatet, tillhandahålla tillräckliga mängder rent vatten, cirkulera näringsämnen etc., förkortat ES). Tanken är att brukarna av marken ska betalas för att de antingen avstår eller kraftigt begränsar sig från att använda marken för produktion av mat och bränsle och istället bevarar skogen och/eller vattnet (det vill säga ES) i intakt skick. Avsikten är att biodiversitet, inlagring av kol, vatten- och näringscykler ska säkras. Dessvärre finns det forskning, däribland vår egen, som visar att REDD inte är så effektivt som avsetts och hittills inte har kunnat bromsa avskogningen, som bland annat orsakas av expanderande jordbruksmarker och marknader, samt storskaliga infrastrukturprojekt. REDDs fokus på att främst stoppa avverkningen och minska utsläpp av koldioxid riskerar också att slå hårt mot småbrukare som är beroende av skogen för att överleva. Om tillgången till skogens resurser begränsas så minskar deras försörjningsalternativ negativt. Det är därför av högsta vikt att studera hur småbrukare kan kombinera en minskad avskogning med bibehållen produktion av mat. Småbrukares mångfaldiga markanvändning har en central roll för att kunna bromsa klimatförändringar och tillhandahålla ES. Många småbrukare lyckas bevara skog och sina vattentäkter genom att kombinera jord- och skogsbruk. Emellertid så hanterar i stort sätt alla internationella, statliga och regionala stödprogram jordbruk och skogsskötsel som vitt skilda aktiviteter. Att kombinera dessa verksamheter istället för att skilja dem åt kräver ett integrerat landskapsperspektiv. Detta forskningsprojekt avser att studera ES från ett sådant landskapsperspektiv; att undersöka småbrukarnas intentioner och praktiker för att förvalta ES, och hur deras agerande kan bidra till att bevara skog, stärka ES i landskapet, samtidigt som de tryggar sin försörjning. Avsikten är att studera detta genom att jämföra två olika fall, ett i Nepal och ett i östra Amazonas i Brasilien. Dessa två områden skiljer sig givetvis radikalt åt, men det finns också gemensamma strukturer i hur småbrukare på båda platserna bedriver småskaligt jord- och skogsbruk. De tre forskningsfrågorna som vi ställer är följande: 1: Hur förvaltar och uppfattar småbrukare ekosystemtjänster (ES) i sina marker och i det omgivande landskapet i stort? 2: Vilka incitament kan förmå småbrukare, individuellt och kollektivt, att kombinera sin produktion av matgrödor med ett bevarande och förstärkande av ES? 3: Vilken påverkan har regional och lokal byråkrati och handlingsprogram för brukarnas möjligheter att kombinera matproduktion med ett bevarande av ES (stärkande, hindrande, neutralt)? För att besvara dessa frågor i Nepal och Brasilien och även på ett generellt plan så kommer vi att bedriva så kallade etnografiska studier. Detta innebär att vi gör fältarbete på plats, studerar hur småbrukare agerar i praktiken, att vi genomför olika former av intervjuer, att vi låter människor själva beskriva sina landskap, sin jordbruks- och skogsproduktion och att vi analyserar lag- och policytexter och ser hur dessa implementeras i verkligheten. Projektet undersöker den akuta och viktiga frågan om att upprätthålla ES i landskapet med syftet att bidra till förståelsen av den ömsesidiga påverkan mellan jord-och skogsbruk, något som är mycket viktigt för framtida planering av ES-åtgärder. För att förse de politiska beslutsfattarna med nödvändig bakgrundsinformation behövs platsspecifika studier om ES och deras värden för de lokala samhällena.

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.

Requiring a contribution may elicit useful information about preferences, and create ´buy-in´ or a sense of ownership; but may also exclude the poorest communities from participation, alter the dynamics of participatory decision-making processes, and facilitate elite capture. Although this policy is widely implemented, prior evidence regarding the policy may be biased, because projects that impose requirements for contributions may differ in many respects from projects that do not impose these contributions. We will implement a project to provide safe drinking water in 120 villages. We will randomly select 40 communities who will not be required to contribute in order to participate, 40 who will be required to contribute in cash, and 40 who will be required to contribute in labour. We will measure the impact of the contribution requirement on i) which communities participate in the project ii) which individuals and groups meet the cost of the contribution and iii) the overall impact in terms of increasing access to safe drinking water. In a second, parallel experiment we will test whether a behavioural modification to the decision-making process - known as anchoring - affects decision-making and the resultant impacts of the project. Beslutsfattare och biståndspraktiker har länge förespråkat att mottagare av bistånd ska deltaga aktivt i projekt som tillhandahåller kollektiva nyttigheter genom att bidra med kontanter eller in natura. Den bärande tanken är att mottagarnas insats bekräftar den lokala efterfrågan av de tjänster som erbjuds. Vidare skapas ett ägandeskap av projektets tillgångar vilket ökar sannolikheten för en långsiktig och hållbar förvaltning. På ett mer grundläggande plan minskar dessutom kostnaderna för själva projektet. Samtidigt finns det en risk att projektet inte lyckas med sin främsta uppgift: att reducera fattigdom, då insatskravet de facto kan leda till att de allra fattigaste inte har möjlighet att medverka. När kontanter krävs kan det också bidra till att existerande ojämlikheter förstärks genom att de som har råd att deltaga i större utsträckning påverkar beslutsprocessen. När bidragen handlar om in natura eller arbete finns det även risk för att kostnaderna i större utsträckning bärs av de fattiga. Även om policyrekommendationen om krav på motprestation är vanligt förekommande i biståndsvärlden saknas trovärdig och välgrundad kunskap som stödjer dess slutsatser. Projekt som bygger på aktiva insatser av mottagarna skiljer sig ofta åt från de projekt som inte kräver mottagarinsatser vilket gör det svårt att jämföra utfallen. Den här studien är den första experimentella prövningen av hypotesen att mottagarnas egna insatser har en kausal effekt på projektutfallet. Genom att slumpmässigt tilldela olika byar i Bangladesh samma projekt, med eller utan arbets- eller kontantinsatser, kommer studien mäta effekten av mottagarnas insats oberoende av projektets syfte. Specifikt studerar vi ett program som erbjuder rent dricksvatten. Byarna kommer själva att bestämma om de vill deltaga i programmet, hur byinvånarna ska bidra till programmet (om så krävs) och var brunnarna ska byggas. Beslutet att deltaga kommer att tas enhälligt i öppna bymöten där vanligen underrepresenterade grupper som de allra fattigaste och kvinnor har möjlighet att närvara. Genom att samla in data från mötena samt från byarnas hushåll före och efter beslutet att deltaga i projektet kommer studien att utröna hur kravet om mottagarnas insats påverkar (i) huruvida byn väljer att deltaga i programmet; (ii) vilka individer och grupper som bär kostnaden för programmet; (iii) vilka beslut som fattas på bymötet; (iv) tillgången till rent dricksvatten i byn. I en andra delstudie kommer vi även att utvärdera om mer inflytelserika grupper gynnar sig själva i beslutsprocessen genom att placera brunnar på platser som främjar dem själva. Hälften av byarna kommer att få förslag på var brunnarna bör lokaliseras baserat på vad som ökar tillgängligheten i byn som helhet. Byarna ges sedan möjlighet att diskutera, förändra och utforma förslaget själva. Den andra hälften av byarna utgår från sina egna förslag på var brunnarna bör lokaliseras, utan en extern propå. Psykologisk forskning hävdar att *förankring* av beslutsprocessen genom att initiera förslag innan besluten tas främjar mindre resursstarka gruppers möjlighet att påverka utfallet av beslutsprocessen.

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.

The decline of Jiroft is unknown, but this could be related to regional climate change during the Holocene (ca. 6300 BP), which impacted precipitation, landscape evolution, and vegetation. This link is tenuous since high-resolution paleoclimate records from Iran and the middle-east are very scarce. Moreover, the existing studies have low temporal resolution or large uncertainties in age. In this study, we will investigate the Holocene climate variability, feedback mechanisms, and its impacts on early human societies that developed in the region. The study will focus on Lake Jazmourian, a large freshwater body near Jiroft. Our goals are to: 1) reconstruct a high-resolution Holocene paleoclimate record based on 14C age and various geochemical and geophysical proxies, 2) determine vegetation changes based on diagnostic biomarkers and pollen, and 3) correlate the data with other proxy records from the region. We will establish a two-way knowledge exchange, and the new research initiatives and strategic collaboration will provide fresh insights, benefit exchange of students and scientists, and improve existing research facilities in Iran. Moreover, our efforts will contribute in filling knowledge gaps and generate a detailed paleoclimate record tracing past changes. These data will provide a baseline for future actions related to regional climate change and its long-term impacts. Den antika staden Jiroft på den iranska platån har vuxit fram som en viktig arkeologisk plats med jiroftkulturen som en av de tidigaste identifierbara kulturerna i södra Asien. Staden utvecklades något innan eller ungefär samtidigt som städerna i Mesopotamien, men kulturen försvann omkring 3: e eller 4: e årtusendet f.Kr. Orsaken till jiroftkulturens upplösning är okänd, men kan vara relaterad till regionala klimatförändringar under holocen (c:a 6300 BP), som kan ha påverkat nederbörd, landskapsutveckling och vegetation. Men detta samband är svagt eftersom högupplösta paleoklimatiska från Iran och Mellanöstern är mycket sällsynta. Hårda väderförhållanden och dålig tillgänglighet till dessa platser försvårar fältarbete, och borrning genom tjock lera och sand är förenat med stora problem. Dessutom har samarbetet med väst varit begränsat under de senaste decennierna. De få markbundna studier som finns inom regionen har låg tidsupplösning eller stora osäkerheter i åldersbestämningen. Dessa förhållanden har gjort det svårt att få fram trovärdiga bedömningar av paleoklimatet. Undersökningar med hög tidsupplösning kan ge svar på hur variationer i klimat och hydrologi har påverkat akvatiska och terrestra ekosystem och hur känsliga ekosystemen är i olika klimatscenarier och hur detta kan ha påverkat människorna i regionen. Den aktuella studien kommer att fokusera på Jazmouriansjön nära Jiroft. Detta välintegrerade tvärvetenskapliga projekts mål är att 1) rekonstruera paleoklimatet via en högupplöst tidsserie baserad åldersbestämning av lagerserier med kol-14-metoden och ett antal geokemiska variabler, 2) bestämma vegetationsförändringar med hjälp av specifika biomarkörer och pollen, 3) korrelera data med andra paleoklimatiska studier från regionen. Till exempel kommer vi att jämföra med dokumentation från andra persiska sjöar, torv, marina sediment i Indiska oceanen och avlagringar i grottor från Etopien och Oman. Dessa analyser och jämförelser kan ge svar på hur de olika ekosystemen, sjöarna, våtmarkerna och den terrestra vegetationen påverkades av förändringar i temperatur och nederbörd, om förändringarna skedde samtidigt i Iran och andra delar av regionen, och om förändringarna var gradvisa eller abrupta. Resultaten kommer att ge en bit i pusslet om varför jiroftkulturen försvann, och ligga till grund för framtida åtgärder mot klimatförändringar och för miljöförbättringar och hjälpa till att utveckla planer för bevarande och hållbar utveckling. De vetenskapliga data som genereras i projektet kommer att användas för publikationer på hög nivå och presenteras på konferenser. Dessutom kommer synergiutvecklingen av innovativa strategier/metoder ger nya insikter för att bygga en regional klimatscenarier modell och förbättra förutsägbarheten för nederbörd och temperaturförändringar. Projektet kommer att pågå i tre år och kommer att ske i nära samarbete mellan forskare från Sverige och Iran, och kommer också att ske i samarbete med forskare i Storbritannien, USA, Tyskland, och Frankrike. Dessutom kommer dessa nya forskningsinitiativ och riktlinjer förbättra forskningscentra och gynna utbytet av studenter och forskare och överföringen av teknologi.

The decline of Jiroft is unknown, but this could be related to regional climate change during the Holocene (ca. 6300 BP), which impacted precipitation, landscape evolution, and vegetation. This link is tenuous since high-resolution paleoclimate records from Iran and the middle-east are very scarce. Moreover, the existing studies have low temporal resolution or large uncertainties in age. In this study, we will investigate the Holocene climate variability, feedback mechanisms, and its impacts on early human societies that developed in the region. The study will focus on Lake Jazmourian, a large freshwater body near Jiroft. Our goals are to: 1) reconstruct a high-resolution Holocene paleoclimate record based on 14C age and various geochemical and geophysical proxies, 2) determine vegetation changes based on diagnostic biomarkers and pollen, and 3) correlate the data with other proxy records from the region. We will establish a two-way knowledge exchange, and the new research initiatives and strategic collaboration will provide fresh insights, benefit exchange of students and scientists, and improve existing research facilities in Iran. Moreover, our efforts will contribute in filling knowledge gaps and generate a detailed paleoclimate record tracing past changes. These data will provide a baseline for future actions related to regional climate change and its long-term impacts. Den antika staden Jiroft på den iranska platån har vuxit fram som en viktig arkeologisk plats med jiroftkulturen som en av de tidigaste identifierbara kulturerna i södra Asien. Staden utvecklades något innan eller ungefär samtidigt som städerna i Mesopotamien, men kulturen försvann omkring 3: e eller 4: e årtusendet f.Kr. Orsaken till jiroftkulturens upplösning är okänd, men kan vara relaterad till regionala klimatförändringar under holocen (c:a 6300 BP), som kan ha påverkat nederbörd, landskapsutveckling och vegetation. Men detta samband är svagt eftersom högupplösta paleoklimatiska från Iran och Mellanöstern är mycket sällsynta. Hårda väderförhållanden och dålig tillgänglighet till dessa platser försvårar fältarbete, och borrning genom tjock lera och sand är förenat med stora problem. Dessutom har samarbetet med väst varit begränsat under de senaste decennierna. De få markbundna studier som finns inom regionen har låg tidsupplösning eller stora osäkerheter i åldersbestämningen. Dessa förhållanden har gjort det svårt att få fram trovärdiga bedömningar av paleoklimatet. Undersökningar med hög tidsupplösning kan ge svar på hur variationer i klimat och hydrologi har påverkat akvatiska och terrestra ekosystem och hur känsliga ekosystemen är i olika klimatscenarier och hur detta kan ha påverkat människorna i regionen.

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. Vi kommer exempelvis att försöka skapa lokala initiativgrupper för informationsspridning och produktutveckling i Etiopien 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 tef i Etiopien på ett miljövänligt och ekologiskt hållbart sätt.

An early warning with precise forecast of outbreak allows timely decision-making and mitigation. Such epidemic prediction capability is not demonstrated in current surveillance system. In early 2014, researchers from Umea University have initiated a multidisciplinary and multinational collaboration for the development of a dengue early warning system for Singapore and Malaysia. Umeå researchers possess substantial experience in disease forecasting modeling using various statistical and mathematical techniques. This project promotes research capacity and expertise required for disease forecast. Activities such as workshops, seminars and visits to Disease Control Division are planned to facilitate exchange or transfer of knowledge or ideas and develop strategies for studies including forecast of dengue, development of early warning system, economic evaluation and information distribution. Subsequently, knowledge and experience gained will be translated as course modules for graduate students in the University of Malaya. Anticipated outcomes include long-term research partnership and advance knowledge of disease early warning that may contribute to reducing burden of dengue and promote healthy living and wellbeing in the community. 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. En kursmodul syftas även utvecklas som stöd för detta för att ges vid medicinska fakulteten vid University of Malaya. Forskare vid Umeå Universitet innehar stor expertis inom utvecklingen av varningssystem baserat på olika typer av prediktionsmodeller. Framförallt har Umeå gruppen utvecklat en statistisk modell som predicerar dengue med god tillförlitlighet veckovis. För att bekämpa dengue i Malaysia har forskare från Umeå tillsammans med University of Malaya och hälsoministeriet i Malaysia satt samman en multidisciplinär forskargrupp med mål att utveckla ett dengue varningssystem. Resultaten från det här projektet tros bidra till nytta både i Malaysia och Sverige i form av avancerade erfarenheter och skicklighet i utvecklingen av varningssystem, samt att bidra till ett långvarigt samarbete. En ökad kunskap om riskerna om dengue och varningar om epidemier tros kunna reducera den ekonomiska bördan i högrisk populationer genom att reducera insjuknande.

In our project, multiple coordinated relays are used to satisfy the users quality-of-service requirements, with minimum impacts on the environment. The main objectives of the proposal are to improve the power efficiency, increase the portion of renewable energy in the wireless networks and develop carbon-reducing systems. To improve the power efficiency, we perform adaptive power allocation, harvest the required energy from renewable energy resources/interference and implement the power amplifiers properly. To cope with global warming and facilitate sustainable development, we add the radio pollution into the problem formulation, as a minimization goal. Advance mathematical tools, such as machine learning, game theory and stochastic geometry, are used for joint relay selection and power allocation. Compared to all current wireless networks, our project is a new paradigm as we change the interference from the most undesirable factor to something good improving the power efficiency. The project is collaboration between Chalmers University of Tech., Sweden, and Sharif University of Tech., Iran. This is an initiative for long-term collaboration and attracting more grants/partners. During the project, we will have regular technical meetings and several research visits. Joint conference/journal papers are written and we present joint tutorials/workshops in the outstanding related conferences. Trådlös kommunikation bidrar med ca 2% av de globala CO2-utsläppen, och energiåtgången förväntas öka med 16-20% per år. Användandet av trådlöst bredband ökar exponentiellt, så ?grön kommunikation?, dvs reduktion av energiåtgången för trådlös kommunikation, är en central utmaning. Vi föreslår ett projekt inom miljövänlig multi-hop-baserad trådlös kommunikation. Genom multipla koordinerade reläer är det möjligt att förtäta kommunikationsnätet och möjliggöra ständig kommunikation, överallt och med allting, i linje med målen för nästa generation trådlösa system. Multipla koordinerade reläer har potentialen att uppfylla användarkraven på tillgänglighet och kommunikationskvalitet i publika tätbefolkade områden med minimal påverkan på miljön. De huvudsakliga målen med projektet är att förbättra energi-effektiviteten och att öka andelen förnyelsebar energi i trådlösa nätverk. För att hantera problemet med den globala uppvärmningen och för att underlätta hållbar utveckling så inkluderar vi både radio-prestanda och energi-effektivitet i vår problemformulering. Vi studerar adaptiv effekt- och spektrum-allokering med målet att åstadkomma energieffektiv trådlös kommunikation. Systemet kommer att tillåta att en stor del av den behövda energin skördas från förnyelsebara energi-resurser, och styrningen av systemet möjliggör att effektförstärkarna hos radiosändarna kan förbättras. Denna styrning kan åstadkommas genom att vi utvecklar en komplett modell för energi-förbrukningen i det trådlösa reläsystemet. Modellen har användbarhet även för mer generella typer av trådlösa kommunikationssystem. Detta nät kommer även tillåta att skörda energi från radiomiljön, dvs interferens kommer att återanvändas för att driva relänoderna. Detta är ett paradigmskifte inom design av trådlösa system. Genom att energitillförseln kommer huvudsakligen från förnyelsebara källor och relänoderna baseras på billig hårdvara kommer systemet vara attraktivt att bygga, speciellt för utvecklingsländer. Projektet är ett treårigt internationellt samarbete mellan Chalmers tekniska högskola i Sverige och Sharif University of Technology, vilket är det högst rankade universitetet i Iran. Projektet kommer att lägga grunden för ett långsiktigt samarbete mellan Chalmers och Sharif, och det kommer att användas för att attrahera ytterligare samarbete och forskningsfinanisering. Iran har länge varit ett viktigt land för vår rekrytering till våra master- och doktorandprogram på Chalmers. Detta projekt kommer att stärka dessa band, då de försvagats de senaste åren genom Irans nuvarande svaga valuta. Vi kommer att arrangera återkommande fysiska möten, tekniska möten på distans samt åtminstone ett forskarutbyte per år. Våra gemensamma forskningsresultat kommer att generera gemensamma konferensbidrag och artiklar och vi ämnar arrangera gemensamma sessioner och föreläsningar i samband med de bästa internationella konferenserna inom forskningsområdet.

Compared to all current wireless networks, our project is a new paradigm as we change the interference from the most undesirable factor to something good improving the power efficiency. The project is collaboration between Chalmers University of Tech., Sweden, and Sharif University of Tech., Iran. This is an initiative for long-term collaboration and attracting more grants/partners. During the project, we will have regular technical meetings and several research visits. Joint conference/journal papers are written and we present joint tutorials/workshops in the outstanding related conferences. Trådlös kommunikation bidrar med ca 2% av de globala CO2-utsläppen, och energiåtgången förväntas öka med 16-20% per år. Användandet av trådlöst bredband ökar exponentiellt, så ?grön kommunikation?, dvs reduktion av energiåtgången för trådlös kommunikation, är en central utmaning. Vi föreslår ett projekt inom miljövänlig multi-hop-baserad trådlös kommunikation. Genom multipla koordinerade reläer är det möjligt att förtäta kommunikationsnätet och möjliggöra ständig kommunikation, överallt och med allting, i linje med målen för nästa generation trådlösa system. Multipla koordinerade reläer har potentialen att uppfylla användarkraven på tillgänglighet och kommunikationskvalitet i publika tätbefolkade områden med minimal påverkan på miljön. De huvudsakliga målen med projektet är att förbättra energi-effektiviteten och att öka andelen förnyelsebar energi i trådlösa nätverk. För att hantera problemet med den globala uppvärmningen och för att underlätta hållbar utveckling så inkluderar vi både radio-prestanda och energi-effektivitet i vår problemformulering. Vi studerar adaptiv effekt- och spektrum-allokering med målet att åstadkomma energieffektiv trådlös kommunikation. Systemet kommer att tillåta att en stor del av den behövda energin skördas från förnyelsebara energi-resurser, och styrningen av systemet möjliggör att effektförstärkarna hos radiosändarna kan förbättras. Denna styrning kan åstadkommas genom att vi utvecklar en komplett modell för energi-förbrukningen i det trådlösa reläsystemet. Modellen har användbarhet även för mer generella typer av trådlösa kommunikationssystem. Detta nät kommer även tillåta att skörda energi från radiomiljön, dvs interferens kommer att återanvändas för att driva relänoderna. Detta är ett paradigmskifte inom design av trådlösa system. Genom att energitillförseln kommer huvudsakligen från förnyelsebara källor och relänoderna baseras på billig hårdvara kommer systemet vara attraktivt att bygga, speciellt för utvecklingsländer. Projektet är ett treårigt internationellt samarbete mellan Chalmers tekniska högskola i Sverige och Sharif University of Technology, vilket är det högst rankade universitetet i Iran. Projektet kommer att lägga grunden för ett långsiktigt samarbete mellan Chalmers och Sharif, och det kommer att användas för att attrahera ytterligare samarbete och forskningsfinanisering. Iran har länge varit ett viktigt land för vår rekrytering till våra master- och doktorandprogram på Chalmers. Detta projekt kommer att stärka dessa band, då de försvagats de senaste åren genom Irans nuvarande svaga valuta. Vi kommer att arrangera återkommande fysiska möten, tekniska möten på distans samt åtminstone ett forskarutbyte per år. Våra gemensamma forskningsresultat kommer att generera gemensamma konferensbidrag och artiklar och vi ämnar arrangera gemensamma sessioner och föreläsningar i samband med de bästa internationella konferenserna inom forskningsområdet.

Together, we have a common interest to improve the scientific understanding of water fluxes in present and future climates, and to use this knowledge for sustainable water management and climate change adaptation. The work will be based on participatory processes to establish a shared open-source hydrological model of the Niger River basin. In addition, end-user interactions will guide data compilation and visualisation, and the potential for local operationalisation. Specifically, this project aims to: (1) perform collaborative research experiments and provide climate change impact information for a large set of end-users in the region; (2) stimulate practical utilization of new quality-assured water information among end-users in the Niger River basin for more efficient water management; (3) strengthen and establish new collaborations between Swedish scientists and researchers in West Africa. Vatten är en förutsättning för matförsörjning och nationell utveckling. I Västafrika varierar vattentillgången mellan extrema torrår och kraftiga översvämningar. Detta ställer redan stora krav på beredskap och återhämtning mellan olika år. Klimatforskningen tyder dessutom på att situationen kan förvärras ytterligare p.g.a. den globala uppvärmningen. De som är mest sårbara för variationer i vattentillgång är de fattiga och kvinnor som jobbar med jordbruk. De har inte resurser att förbereda sig och de har inte tillgång till information om ändrade förhållanden. Genom ökad kunskap om vattenresurserna i nutida och framtida klimat kan regionens kapacitet att hantera sina utmaningar höjas. Det här projektet har som mål att fördjupa existerande och utveckla nya samarbeten mellan vattenforskare i Sverige och Västafrika (i Burkina Faso, Mali och vid regionala forskningsinstitut i Niger). Ett sådant samarbete är nödvändigt eftersom olika forskargrupper har olika nyckelkompetenser som är nödvändiga för att nå en hållbar vattenanvändning och klimatanpassning i Sahel. Forskare i Västafrika har bäst kunskap om lokala hydrologiska processer medan forskare i Sverige har IT-teknologi med flexibla och öppna beräkningssystem som kan integrera olika typer av kunskap över stora områden. SMHI arbetar tillsammans med vattenforskare vid det regionala forskningscentret AGRHYMET med att utveckla och anpassa ett tekniskt beräkningssystem för Nigerflodens avrinningsområde. För att maximera nyttan av det arbetet krävs vetenskapligt utbyte, vilket är det primära syftet med detta samarbetsprojekt. Projektet är uppdelat i tre delar och fyra olika aktiviteter. Första delen handlar om att fördjupa samarbetet med AGRHYMET genom att göra gemensamma datorbaserade experiment kring vattenmiljön i Sahel. Resultaten ska analyseras gemensamt vid ett antal forskarvistelser i Sverige, Burkina Faso, Niger och Mali. Det tekniska beräknings-systemet har potential att användas både på nationell och regional nivå som stöd för vattenplanering, ytterligare forskning och utbildning, samt i operationella varningstjänster för översvämning och torka. Andra delen i projektet fokuserar därför på att sprida resultaten och slutsatserna till andra forskare och användare som redan visat intresse för våra resultat. De representerar myndigheter och icke-statliga organisationer med ansvar för frågor kring ekosystemtjänster, bevattningssystem, vattenhushållning, erosionsskydd, stadsplanering och meteorologiska och hydrologiska prognoser. För att beräkningsresultaten ska vara användbara behöver data sammanställas och visualiseras efter användarnas behov. Detta ska göras tillsammans med användarna i regionen, bla under en större workshop. Slutligen kommer vi i projektets tredje del att analysera styrkor och svagheter i resultaten och beräkningssystemet tillsammans med ett antal forskare i Mali och Burkina Faso, vid ett forskarseminarium. Slutsatserna av analysen kommer ligga till grund för en ny gemensam projektansökan som syftar till att förbättra de operationella prognosmodellerna i regionen, vilket ger bättre beslutsunderlag för vattenanvändning och klimatanpassning i Västafrika.

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. En tillämpning är anrikning av guld från låghaltigt lakvatten från gruvdrift, en annan värdehöjande enantiomer separation eller katalys av molekyler från loka naturprodukter.

Worst affected are poor people living in vulnerable communities in tropical and sub-tropical regions. Vector control by insecticides is the dominant way to combat and prevent transmission of mosquito-borne diseases. Due to globalization, environmental changes and increased insecticide resistance, there is an urgent need for new approaches and strategies for efficient vector control. This proposal aims to design, synthesize and develop multiple novel chemical classes of insecticides for control of Aedes aegypti (transmits e.g. dengue and chikungunya) and Anopheles gambiae (transmits malaria). We will target a form of acetylcholinesterase (AChE1) not present in vertebrates, and identify diverse selective chemical starting points by high throughput screening (HTS). Evaluation of a performed HTS targeting mosquito AChE1 has shown promising results. We have identified several classes of substances that are selective for the mosquito-form over human AChE. These multiple chemical starting points will be synthetically explored and optimized into insecticides. Early on in the discovery process we will include, in addition to the target-specific endpoints, response estimates that address human safety, environmental fate and effect, resistance sensitivity, and cost of goods. Mosquito testing, including laboratory testing and field studies, will be performed in Kenya. Nya insekticider för hållbar och effektiv bekämpning av sjukdomsbärande myggor Ett stort antal virus- och parasitsjukdomar sprids mellan människor eller från djur till människa av blodsugande insekter som till exempel myggor. Myggorna får i sig den sjukdomsframkallande mikroorganismen när de suger blod från en infekterad värd och överför senare infektionen till nästa individ som den biter. Myggorna är då så kallade vektorer för sjukdomen. Varje år infekteras mer än en miljard människor och mer än en miljon människor dör av vektorburna sjukdomar som malaria, dengue och chikungunya. Värst drabbade är fattiga människor som lever under svåra förhållanden, främst i tropiska och subtropiska regioner. De individer som löper störst risk att drabbas är små barn, gravida kvinnor, människor med HIV och de som är drabbade av naturkatastrofer och humanitära nödsituationer. Det stora antalet infekterade individer leder också till en ökad fattigdom på grund av medicinska kostnader och att de drabbade blir svaga och orkeslösa och därmed inte längre kan arbeta och bidra till familjeförsörjningen. Bekämpning av vektorburna sjukdomar har därför en central roll för fattigsdomsbekämpning och ekonomisk utveckling i låg- och medelinkomst länder. Klimatförändringar och ökad globalisering har medfört en ökning i både antal och utbredning av sjukdomsspridande myggor. Detta innebär en ökad risk för epidemiska utbrott och en spridning av myggor till tempererade regioner. Till exempel så har myggan som sprider dengue nu påträffats i 20 europeiska länder. En effektiv metod för bekämpning av myggburna sjukdomar är vektorkontroll med hjälp av insekticider. Tyvärr har det utvecklats stammar av sjukdomsspridande myggor som är okänsliga mot samtliga kemiska klasser av insekticider som kan användas idag. Myggorna har utvecklat resistens mot insekticiderna. Detta utgör ett allvarligt hot mot kampen för att bekämpa sjukdomar som malaria, framför allt i Afrika. Ökningen av utbredning och antal sjukdomsspridande myggor, tillsammans med en ökad insekticidresistens på grund av ensidig vektorkontroll, har frambringat ett akut behov av alternativa strategier och tillvägagångssätt for bekämpning av sjudomsspridande myggor. Målet med detta forskningsprogam är att forska fram nya insekticider som specifikt angriper myggor som sprider bland annat malaria, dengue och chikungunya. De nya insekticiderna ska förhindra funktionen av ett för myggan livsnödvändigt protein, ett protein som inte finns hos ryggradsdjur. Vi har testat ett stort antal organiska substanser och upptäckt nya substanser som är lämpliga startpunkter för vidare utveckling till insekticider. Dessa startpunkter kommer att undersökas, modifieras och optimeras med experimentella och datorbaserade tekniker. I utvecklingsprocessen av insekticiderna kommer vi att utföra ett flertal proteinspecifika tester, men vi kommer även tidigt i processen att inkludera hälsoaspekter, miljöpåverkan, resistenskänslighet och framställningskostnad av insekticiderna. Försök på myggor kommer att genomföras i laboratoriemiljö och genom fältstudier i Kenya.

These resistant bacteria may easily spread between patients in the hospital setting in the absence of proper hygiene. Escherichia coli, present in the normal human gut, may produce enzymes called Extended Spectrum â-Lactamases (ESBL) or carbapenemases, which degrade penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems, respectively. There is no study in Africa, including Tanzania, investigating the risk to acquire ESBL- or carbapenemas-producing E. coli during hospital stay. We will investigate this risk for patients in the pediatric and gynecological units at a hospital in the Moshi area, Tanzania. The prevalence of colonization in faeces will be related to antibiotic use and possible contamination of the hospital environment with these bacteria. For comparison colonization of patients in the outpatient setting will be investigated as well. The prevalence of the globally present O25b-ST131 clone said to be largely responsible for the spread of ESBL will be determined as will the genotypes of ESBL- and carbapenemas-producing strains to elucidate possible transmission routes. The results will be used to increase the local knowledge of basic hygiene routines and their implementation in daily hospital care in order to decrease the spread of multiresistant bacteria between patients. The study will also increase the competence at the local microbiological laboratory in diagnosing resistant bacteria. Bakterier som är resistenta mot antibiotika ökar i hela världen, vilket leder till svårigheter att behandla vanliga infektioner såsom urinvägsinfektioner, sårinfektioner och blodförgiftning. Resistenta bakterier kan spridas mellan individer i samhället, men risken för spridning är mycket större på sjukhus, särskilt vid brister i basala hygienrutiner. I låginkomstländer saknas ofta medel och kompetens för övervakning av resistenta bakterier på sjukhuset och ute i samhället. Escherichia coli (E. coli ) är en vanlig tarmbakterie, som kan producera olika enzymer såsom Extended Spektrum Beta-Laktamaser (ESBL) eller karbapenemaser. Dessa enzymer bryter ner vanliga antibiotika som ofta används på sjukhus, inklusive penicilliner och cefalosporiner, respektive karbapenemer. I många fall är dessa bakterier multiresistenta, vilket innebär att få eller inga behandlingsalternativ återstår. Frekvensen av både ESBL-bärande och karbapenemresistenta E. coli har ökat över hela världen och utgör idag ett av de främsta hoten mot människans hälsa. I detta projekt kommer vi att undersöka förekomsten av kolonisering av ESBL- och karbapenemas-producerande E. coli hos kvinnor och barn i feces vid inskrivning på gynekologiska respektive pediatriska avdelningar på ett sjukhus i Moshi i Tanzania. Ett andra prov kommer att tas efter cirka en vecka efter inskrivningen för att undersöka förändringar i kolonisering av resistenta bakterier i tarmen, ställt i relation till antibiotikabehandling. Risken att patienter förvärvar ESBL-bärande bakterier under sjukhusvistelse har studerats i andra länder, men inte i Tanzania. Huruvida karbapenemresistenta E. coli finns i Tanzania är i nuläget okänt. För undersökning av förekomsten av resistenta tarmbakterier i samhället kommer fecesprover att samlas från kvinnor och barn som besöker öppenvård i Moshi-området. Patienter kommer att tillfrågas om de nyligen behandlats med antibiotika, vilket relateras till förekomsten av ESBL- och karbapenemas-producerande E. coli i tarmen. Förutom screeningprover kommer prover att tas från miljön på sjukhuset för att undersöka om resistenta tarmbakterier även finns i sjukhusmiljön och i sådana fall kan utgöra en tänkbar smittkälla. De resistenta bakterierna kommer att undersökas med molekylärbiologiska tekniker för att utreda förekomsten av särskilt spridningsbenägna bakterier, exempelvis E. coli tillhörande O25b-ST131-klonen, i Tanzania. Resultaten kommer att användas för att öka den lokala kunskapen om basala hygienrutiner i den dagliga sjukhusrutinen med syfte att minska spridningen av multiresistenta bakterier mellan patienter. Nya analyser för detektion av ESBL- och karbapenemas-producerande E. coli, som inte användes förut i Moshi, kommer att utföras vid det Kliniska Mikrobiologiska Laboratoriet, och en lokal biomedicinsk analytiker kommer att bjudas in till Klinisk Mikrobiologi vid Sahlgrenska Universitetssjukhuset och lära sig att utföra de molekylärbiologiska analyser som används i Sverige. Det möjliggör ett inflöde av kompetens för påvisning av resistenta bakterier i Moshi-området.

These resistant bacteria may easily spread between patients in the hospital setting in the absence of proper hygiene. Escherichia coli, present in the normal human gut, may produce enzymes called Extended Spectrum â-Lactamases (ESBL) or carbapenemases, which degrade penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems, respectively. There is no study in Africa, including Tanzania, investigating the risk to acquire ESBL- or carbapenemas-producing E. coli during hospital stay. We will investigate this risk for patients in the pediatric and gynecological units at a hospital in the Moshi area, Tanzania. The prevalence of colonization in faeces will be related to antibiotic use and possible contamination of the hospital environment with these bacteria. For comparison colonization of patients in the outpatient setting will be investigated as well. The prevalence of the globally present O25b-ST131 clone said to be largely responsible for the spread of ESBL will be determined as will the genotypes of ESBL- and carbapenemas-producing strains to elucidate possible transmission routes. The results will be used to increase the local knowledge of basic hygiene routines and their implementation in daily hospital care in order to decrease the spread of multiresistant bacteria between patients.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

In Egypt, previous research reported an incidence of Campylobacter diarrhea of 0.6 episodes per person-year, which was concluded as the highest incidence rate ever reported from a developing country. One complication associated with Campylobacter diarrhea is Guillain-Barre´ Syndrome (GBS), an acute, symmetric, ascending paralysis. Recent Egyptian data suggested that GBS cases were primarily in the young aged and cases and many controls had a history of infection to a variety of Campylobacter serotypes. In hyperendemic settings such as in Egypt, the socio-economic burden of illnesses associated with Campylobacter is substantial. In this project we aim to integrate microbiological surveillance data, sequence-based subtyping, and probabilistic risk assessment modeling tools together to investigate the molecular epidemiology of Campylobacter in the broiler meat, the most important source of human campylobacteriosis, and to quantitatively assess the public health burden of human campylobacteriosis arising from consumption of broiler meat in Egypt. The research approach of this project could be adopted as a model for investigating other zoonotic pathogens in developing countries. The project fund will be directed toward enhancing personnel capacities and institutional collaboration between food safety researchers from Alexandria University in Egypt and the Swedish Agricultural University in Sweden. Campylobacterios orsakas av bakterien Campylobacter. Detta är en zoonotisk bakterie, det vill säga den kan spridas mellan djur och människa. Sjukdomen är troligtvis den vanligaste bakterieorsakade diarrésjukdomen globalt sett och orsakas vanligtvis av livsmedel som förorenats med bakterien. Patienter som insjuknar i campylobacterios kan även drabbas av den allvarliga komplikationen Guillain-Barré. Detta syndrom kännetecknas av förlamning i armar och ben som tilltar under loppet av några dagar och orsakas av akut inflammation i perifera nerver och nervrötter. Det livsmedel som vanligen associeras med campylobacterios är kyckling. I en slaktkycklingbesättning kan majoriteten av slaktkycklingarna vara infekterade med Campylobacter utan att visa några som helst symptom. Detta gör det omöjligt att avgöra vilka djur i flocken som kan utgöra smittrisker för människa utan bakteriell provtagning av varje individ. Detta är dock både en praktisk och ekonomisk omöjlig strategi, både för hög- och låginkomstländer. Resultat från tidigare studier utförda i Egypten visar att incidenstalet, det vill säga antalet nya insjuknanden som uppträder per enhet persontid, är 0,6 episoder av diarré per personår. Detta är det högsta incidenstalet som har rapporterats från ett låginkomstland och tyder på, trots att rapporteringen brister i flera låginkomstländer, att sjukdomen har stor påverkan på folkhälsan i Egypten. Ytterligare studier från Egypten visar att de personer som drabbades av komplikationen Guillain-Barré framförallt var unga personer och att de allra flesta av dem var infekterade med olika undertyper av Campylobacter-bakterier. I ett land såsom Egypten, där i jämfört med andra länder en stor andel av befolkningen drabbas av sjukdomen, är de socio-ekonomiska konsekvenserna av campylobacterios stor. Ett exempel på detta kan vara nedsatt inkomst hos den fattiga delen av befolkningen på grund av oförmåga att arbeta under sjukdomsperioden, samt kostnader orsakade av långvarig sjukhusvistelse vid fall av Guillain-Barré. Syftet med projektet är att få ökade kunskaper om själva bakterien och dess spridning i livsmedelskedjan i Egypten för att kunna föreslå lämpliga åtgärder för att på sikt minska sjukdomens betydelse i landet. I projektet kommer en kombination av mikrobiell övervakning, avancerad sekvensbaserad karaktärisering av bakterien och mikrobiell riskvärderingsverktyg att användas. På så sätt kommer vi att kunna få ökade kunskaper om den molekylära epidemiologin kring Campylobacter hos slaktkyckling och dess kött. Vi kommer även att kunna kvantifiera folkhälsorisker vid konsumtion av kyckling i Egypten. Konsumtion av kyckling är den vanligaste smittvägen även i Egypten. Resultat som erhålls inom projektet kommer att kunna användas generellt, det vill säga kommer att kunna appliceras även i andra låginkomstländer med liknande förutsättningar. Det gäller både specifikt för Campylobacter likväl som för andra zoonotiska bakterier som sprids i livsmedelskedjan. Finansieringen för projektet kommer att användas för att stärka forskningskapaciteten och internationellt samarbete mellan forskare inom livsmedelssäkerhet, primärt för forskare från Alexandria universitetet i Egypten och Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet i Sverige. I projektet kommer forskningsutbyte, teoretiska kurser, praktisk träning, utförande av konkreta projekt och publicering av forskningsresultat att ingå. Projektets relevans är mycket stor med tanke på den stora påverkan livsmedelsburna sjukdomar har, inte bara i form av personligt lidande orsakat av sjukdomen utan även ur ett ekonomiskt perspektiv. Sjukdomen har stor ekonomisk påverkan i fattiga hushåll, men även i ett större samhällsperspektiv, till exempel i form av arbetsförlust och ökade kostnader för hälsovård.

In Egypt, previous research reported an incidence of Campylobacter diarrhea of 0.6 episodes per person-year, which was concluded as the highest incidence rate ever reported from a developing country. One complication associated with Campylobacter diarrhea is Guillain-Barre´ Syndrome (GBS), an acute, symmetric, ascending paralysis.

We intend to exploit original multiscale modelling concepts evolved in our joint collaborative effort and demonstrated as a powerful tool for simulations, for the benefit of unique low-dimensional and inherently nanostructured materials for applications in optical nano-devices and nano-electronics: conceptually new AlN 2D compounds, novel precursors for growth of III-Nitrides, biomolecules adsorbed on metal surfaces, as well as novel 2D silicon boride systems. Our proposal combines predictive concepts proved in tasks of similar complexity, with readily available experimental techniques (e.g., MOCVD growth of III-Nitrides), with a detailed, realistic schedule for dynamic exchange and diversified training opportunities in two vanguard research environments fully committed to the Swedish Research Links program social and educational goals. Modellering av struktur och tillväxt av inneboende nanostrukturerade material med hjälp av datorsimuleringar är betydligt snabbare och billigare än experimentella försök.

Detta har demonstrerats som ett kraftfullt simuleringsverktyg, till fördel för unika lågdimensionella och nanostrukturerade material för applikationer i optiska nanoapparater och nanoelektronik så som: (i) konceptuellt nya tvådimensionella AlN-föreningar, ett III-nitriterbaserat alternativ till grafen, vilket inkluderar att förutsäga tillväxten av III-nitriter på grafen och grafit; (ii) nya prekursorer för tillväxten av III-nitriter samt detaljerad modellering av den komplexa kemi som kontrollerar deras tillväxt med syfte att främja experimentella försök; (iii) biomolekyler adsorberade på metallytor för uppkommande nanoelektronik och (iv) andra nanostrukturerade material så som fluorkarbider och nanostrukturerade metallsilicider. Teoretiskt förutsägande och några av dessa viktiga vetenskapsteman (III-nitriter, fluorkarbider) är kopplade till existerande teknikerna för experimentell verifiering vid LiU samt till en styrning av materialens syntetisering i realtid. Det vill säga, det föreslagna projektet sträcker sig långt bortom teoretiska övningar med målet att styra syntetiseringen av industriellt sätt lovande material. Vi förväntar oss att de nya materialen har fördelar inom diversifierade teknologier och därför även samhället i stort. Utkomsten av III-nitrit-delen kan komma att bidra till realiseringen av effektiva, portabla och lönsamma LED-system för vattenrening, där det finns ett stort behov i utvecklingsländer, medan nanostrukturerad fluorkarbid kan resultera i nya material av samma vikt som teflon. De två involverade forskarlagen har uppfunnit unika material och faser, till exempel lågdimensionella kiselborider och kolbaserade ?kedjemallar? för framåtskridande grafenbaserad nanoelektronik.

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. Det gör att energieffektivisering är extra viktig för landet. Ett viktigt bidrag till energibesparande är att förbättra belysningen med nya billigare energieffektiva ljuskällor. Det har gjorts stora lovande framsteg inom syntes av GaN baserade material, konjugerade polymerer och kolloidala nanokristaller som gör det möjligt att tillverka billiga, låg-energi och högeffektiva hybrid lysdioder (LED). En annan lovande tillämpning som kan bidra till framtida energiproduktion är III-nitrid-baserade nanostrukturer för fotokatalytisk vattenspjälkning där man omvandlar vatten med hjälp av solljus till vätgas, vilket är ett rent och förnybart energisystem. Ambitionen med detta projekt är att studera olika nanostrukturer baserade på III - nitrider och metalloxider som har användningsområde inom optoelektronik , solceller och bio- och kemiska sensorer. Målet med projektet är riktat på att samerbetet kommer att bedrivas kring följande forskningsuppgifter: (i) studera nya hybridlysdiodstrukturer baserade på III - nitrider , ( ii ) utveckla III-V -och metall - oxid nanostrukturer med tillämpning för vattenspjälkning och ( iii) tillverka nya fiberoptiska sensorer med refraktometri konfiguration för kemiska och biomedicinska tillämpningar.

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. Det gör att energieffektivisering är extra viktig för landet. Ett viktigt bidrag till energibesparande är att förbättra belysningen med nya billigare energieffektiva ljuskällor. Det har gjorts stora lovande framsteg inom syntes av GaN baserade material, konjugerade polymerer och kolloidala nanokristaller som gör det möjligt att tillverka billiga, låg-energi och högeffektiva hybrid lysdioder (LED). En annan lovande tillämpning som kan bidra till framtida energiproduktion är III-nitrid-baserade nanostrukturer för fotokatalytisk vattenspjälkning där man omvandlar vatten med hjälp av solljus till vätgas, vilket är ett rent och förnybart energisystem. Ambitionen med detta projekt är att studera olika nanostrukturer baserade på III - nitrider och metalloxider som har användningsområde inom optoelektronik , solceller och bio- och kemiska sensorer. Målet med projektet är riktat på att samerbetet kommer att bedrivas kring följande forskningsuppgifter: (i) studera nya hybridlysdiodstrukturer baserade på III - nitrider , ( ii ) utveckla III-V -och metall - oxid nanostrukturer med tillämpning för vattenspjälkning och ( iii) tillverka nya fiberoptiska sensorer med refraktometri konfiguration för kemiska och biomedicinska tillämpningar.

The QCM-µTAS offers an ultrasensitive, cost-effective and mobile platform for the development of distributed biosensors for decentralization health care management and control of dengue in low and middle-income countries, where the access to resources and infrastructure is limited. The latest figures from Malaysia health authority shows a dramatic four times increase in dengue cases reported and with a triple increase in the number of deaths caused by dengue in the first quarter of 2014. This is a global threat not only limited to the citizens living in dengue hot spot countries, also to billions of international travelers travelling to the tropical countries. The Dengue-Screen test is expected to improve the health care management of dengue by providing rapid, mobile and cost effective diagnostics tools. Together with the scientific goal, the Dengue-Screen project also strengthens the collaboration between the involved Universities in the vision of exchange of researcher, knowledge and support future joint applications to larger national and international funding for long term collaboration. Denguefeber är en av de största orsakerna till sjukdom och död i tropikerna. Den infekterar mer än 400 miljoner människor varje år. Om man blir smittad av denguefeber, kan tidig diagnostik och snabb behandling minska risken för komplikationer och död. Det finns därför ett behov av specifika och billiga diagnostiska tester för denguefeber. Dessa skall kunna användas för övervakning och för att förhindra epidemier. Förekomsten av denguefeber i Malaysia har ökat stadigt, från 7103 fall år 2000 till 46 171 fall, inklusive 134 dödsfall, under år 2010. Sjukdomen kostar den malaysiska ekonomin 60 - 150 miljoner euro per år. De flesta fall av dengue rapporterades från tätorter (70-80 %) där det finns en hög befolkningstäthet. Denna förstärks också av en snabb urbanisering. Det föreslagna projektet är planerat att genomföras tillsammans med International Islamic University, Malaysia. Det syftar till att ta fram en billig och specifik diagnostisk metod för point-of-care analyser. Metoden planeras att användas som ett tidigt diagnostiskt verktyg för att minska risken för komplikationer. Forskningsprojektet kommer att drivas genom en sammanslagning av expertis på biosensortillverkning som bygger på tryckteknik (Linköpings universitet), biosensorteknik som bygger på kvartsmikrobalans (QCM) och mikrofluidikteknik (International Islamic University, Malaysia). Målet är att utveckla ett Micro Total Analysis System (microTAS) för point-of-care analys av dengue. QCM - microTAS erbjuder en ultrakänslig, kostnadseffektiv och mobil plattform för utveckling av distribuerade biosensorer för decentraliserad sjukvård, förvaltning och kontroll av denguefeber i låg -och medelinkomstländer. Snabb och tillförlitlig upptäckt är särskilt viktigt i de tidiga stadierna av feber, eftersom det är svårt att skilja dengue och dess två svårare former, denguefeber hemorragisk feber (DHF) och dengue shock syndrome (DSS) från andra virala febrar. De detektionsmetoder som används idag, såsom ELISA kräver lång inkubationstid, högkvalificerad personal och dyra reagenser och instrument, vilket gör det nästan omöjligt att använda för många lokala kliniker i utvecklingsländer. Införandet av ett point-of-care test för tidig diagnostik av svår denguefeber är den mest effektiva metoden för management av denguefeber eftersom det potentiellt kan minska de nationella vårdkostnaderna och antalet dödsfall genom att ge rätt behandling vid de tidigaste stadierna av dengue. Projektet är i hög grad relevant för de övergripande målen för den svenska politiken för utvecklingssamarbete (2007/08:89, avsnitt 2.6 ) om smittsamma sjukdomar och andra hälsohot, och mer specifikt (avsnitt 2.6.2 ) för tidiga diagnostiska system och snabba begränsningsåtgärder för att rädda liv och för att hjälpa till att begränsa utbrott av sjukdomar och deras skadliga konsekvenser för enskilda och samhället. Detta gäller särskilt i länder med låg- och medelinkomst som Malaysia. Detta är i linje med EU-kommissionens FP7-samtal för att få fram nya, innovativa verktyg för bättre diagnostik och övervakning för denguefeber. Projektet främjar också genomförandet av WHO:s riktlinjer om *Dengue: riktlinjer för diagnos, behandling, förebyggande och kontroll*. Vårt föreslagna diagnostiska projekt syftar till att minska de problem som en global smittsam sjukdom medför. Detta genomförs genom att utbyta idéer, forskare och teknik och stödja framtida gemensamma ansökningar till ytterligare nationell och internationell finansiering.

The main target is to synthesize novel materials for enhancement of power conversion efficiency of the solar cells. Apart from using synthetic dyes as sensitizers, effort will be made on developing new solid state sensitizers using organometallic perovskites to improve the efficiency and durability of the cells. For further improving the performance of the cells, special attention will be focused on using polymer nanofibres as electrolytes and TiO2 nanofibres/nanotubes as photoanodes. This proposal consists of two major work packages. Under work package 1, the development of perovskite based and quantum dot based solar cells will be undertaken in order to achieve low cost and high efficiency solar cells. Under work package 2, low cost and high efficiency dye sensitized solar cells will be developed by fabricating cells with polymer nanofibre gel electrolytes as well as TiO2 nanofibre/nanorod photoanodes. The overall aim of the project is to develop the next generation of high efficiency and low cost solar cells which would operate even under low light situations. This project will be done in collaboration with University of Malaya, Malaysia, the Institute of Fundamental Studies, Sri Lanka and Rajarata University of Sri Lanka. Solceller av så kallad Grätzel-typ är ett alternativ till traditionella kiselbaserade solceller, de är elektrokemiska ur bemärkelsen att uppbyggnaden till stor del påminner om ett batteri eller en bränslecell. Solcellerna har till exempel en elektrolyt och en fotoanod, dessa komponenter avser vi utveckla bland annat med hjälp av nanoteknik. Att fånga solljusets fotoner och generera elektricitet är en komplicerad process som innefattar flera steg. Ett färgämne absorberar en foton och genererar sedan en fotoelektron som är källa till den elektricitet som solcellen levererar. Vi kommer att undersöka nya färgämnen samt alternativa lösningar som involverar kvantprickar och perovskitmaterial. En annan nyckelkomponent är elektrolyten som har flera funktioner, bland annat att transportera joner nödvändiga för att återställa färgämnet till sitt grundtillstånd.

Syftet är att erhålla effektivare solceller till ett lågt pris. Att kunna producera kostnadseffektiv elektricitet är speciellt viktigt för låg- och mellaninkomstländer där tillgång till elektricitet kan medföra avsevärda förbättringar av levnadsförhållandena för befolkningen.

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.

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 pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) has given to all children in Ethiopia since 2011, but the effect on the disease is not known. The good response seen in USA and Europa may not be repeated because of diferences in serotype distribution and virulence among strains of some serotypes. We plan to investigate the serotype distribution and resistance among pneumococci from children with clinical infections and asymptomatic carriers. Clinical data and level of antibiotic resistance will be related to the serotypes in available vaccines. Indoor air pollution has been found to be a leading cause of morbidity where the food is cooked on open fire with insufficient ventilation. The children in the houses are exposed to smoke, which is likely to be a risk factor for respiratory infections. The air quality will be determined by measuring the carbon monoxide (CO) concentration since CO is a known tracer of incomplete combustion. However, the relation between carbon monoxide levels, airway inflammation and bacteriology in children has not been studied. 100 children living in homes where the food is cooked indoors on open fire without chimney will be compared with 100 children from homes with other forms of cooking. We also plan to study the effect of an intervention with a sun-powered fan. Förebyggande av svåra luftvägsinfektioner hos barn under 5 år i Etiopien. Streptococcus pneumoniae, eller pneumokocker på svenska, tillhör de viktigaste sjukdomsframkallande bakterierna. De är en ledande orsak till barnadödlighet i världen, störst är risken under 2 års ålder. Etiopien hör till de 10 länder i världen med störst antal med denna sjudom. Pneumokockerna omges av en kapsel uppbyggd av sockerarter (polysackarider) som skyddar mot immunförsvarets angrepp. Det finns 95 olika kapseltyper, s.k. serotyper, varav vissa är vanligare vid bärarskap, och andra är vanligare som sjukdomsorsak. 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. Det är också viktigt att studera förekomsten av resistens mot antibiotika och om vaccinet kan reducera de mest resistenta bakterierna. Vi vill också kartlägga vilka bakomliggande sjukdomar och miljöfaktorer som ökar risk för lunginflammation i dessa länder och där förbättringar behövs. Vi vill slutligen veta om de bakterietyper barnen bär i luftvägarna ändras efter att vaccination införts. Trots god tillgång på sjukvård är det fortfarande ca 10% av patienterna med invasiva pneumokockinfektioner som dör inom en månad efter diagnos i Sverige. Infektioner förekommer också hos tidigare friska personer. Risken att dö är betydligt större i Afrika och data tas fram under studien. I stor del av Afrika tillagas maten på öppen eld inomhus utan tillräcklig ventilation. Detta leder till att barnen exponeras för höga halter av luftföroreningar, vilka irriterar luftvägarna. I planerat projekt mäter vi kolmonoxid under 1 vecka i hemmet tillsammans med provtagning av barnen avseende bakterier och inflammation i övre luftvägarna. Kolmonoxid är en bra indikator på ofulständig förbränning.Vi jämför 100 barn från hem med matlagning över öppen eld med 100 barn från hem med annan matlagning. Vi studerar också effekten av en intervention med en solenergidriven fläkt i köket med ny mätning av kolmonoxid och undersökning av barnen. En viktig del av projektet är att utveckla samarbetet mellan experter på luftföroreningar vid naturvetenskapliga fakulteten, Göteborgs Universitet och Addis Abeba Universitet med forskare inom folkhäsa i Addis Abeba och inom bakteriologi och infektionssjukdomar vid Göteborgs Universitet.Vi samarbetar också med forskare inom arkitekturi Addis Abeba för att långsiktligt förbättra boendemiljön.

Vi vill också kartlägga vilka bakomliggande sjukdomar och miljöfaktorer som ökar risk för lunginflammation i dessa länder och där förbättringar behövs. Vi vill slutligen veta om de bakterietyper barnen bär i luftvägarna ändras efter att vaccination införts. Trots god tillgång på sjukvård är det fortfarande ca 10% av patienterna med invasiva pneumokockinfektioner som dör inom en månad efter diagnos i Sverige. Infektioner förekommer också hos tidigare friska personer. Risken att dö är betydligt större i Afrika och data tas fram under studien. I stor del av Afrika tillagas maten på öppen eld inomhus utan tillräcklig ventilation. Detta leder till att barnen exponeras för höga halter av luftföroreningar, vilka irriterar luftvägarna. I planerat projekt mäter vi kolmonoxid under 1 vecka i hemmet tillsammans med provtagning av barnen avseende bakterier och inflammation i övre luftvägarna. Kolmonoxid är en bra indikator på ofulständig förbränning.Vi jämför 100 barn från hem med matlagning över öppen eld med 100 barn från hem med annan matlagning. Vi studerar också effekten av en intervention med en solenergidriven fläkt i köket med ny mätning av kolmonoxid och undersökning av barnen. En viktig del av projektet är att utveckla samarbetet mellan experter på luftföroreningar vid naturvetenskapliga fakulteten, Göteborgs Universitet och Addis Abeba Universitet med forskare inom folkhäsa i Addis Abeba och inom bakteriologi och infektionssjukdomar vid Göteborgs Universitet.Vi samarbetar också med forskare inom arkitekturi Addis Abeba för att långsiktligt förbättra boendemiljön.

The relevance of this collaboration project for Appendix c1 lies in the potential to develop novel drugs against anxiety in view of the disproportionate increase in violence in low and middleincome countries especially affecting their most exposed individuals. Forskningsprogrammet bygger på hypotesen att ångest förändrar nervcellers sätt att reagera på kemiska signaler från sin omgivning. Vi och andra forskare har visat att receptorer för en rad viktiga signalsubstanser i hjärnan kan interagera med varandra på flera olika sätt, bl.a. genom att bilda fysiska komplex i nervcellernas membran. Dessa receptor komplex utgörs av två eller flera receptorer, som antingen är av samma sort (homomerer) eller av olika typer (heteromerer). Komplexen kan i sin tur interagera med varandra i membranen och bilda sammanhängade *mosaiker*, vilka spelar en viktig roll i nervcellers informationsbearbetning. Bland annat misstänker man att störningar i balansen mellan homomera och heteromera komplex kan bidra till utvecklingen av ångest. Den övergripande målsättningen för vårt projekt är att förstå hur ångest-inducerade förändringar av receptorkomplex medverkar till utveckling av ångest och hur detta kan motverkas med hjälp av farmaka.Vi kommer främst att fokusera på receptor heteromerer som innehåller oxytocin receptorn (R) , en receptor som är viktig för förmedling av socialt beteende och antistress effecter. Exempel på sådana komplex är heteromerer mellan oxytocinR- och dopamin D2R samt mellan oxytocinR-och alpha2 adrenergaR.Oxytocin receptorR- D2R heteromerer återfinns t.ex. i amygdala barken, fr.a i central amygdala kärnan ( en central component för utlösning av beteenden vid fara och ångest) och i det ventrala striato-pallidala bansystemet (en central komponent i hjärnans belöningssystem) . Potentiella OxytocinR och alpha2adrenergaR heteromerer kan finnas i amygdala barken och hypothalamus. Hypotesen är att oxytocin utlöser social beteende och antistress effecter via ökning av D2R och alpha2adrenergaR signalering i dessa receptor complex,vilket postuleras vara mekanismen för oxytocinets ångest dämpande effekter .Med anledning av våra tidigare upptäckter ämnar vi alltså studera hur effekter av Oxytocin och/eller oxytocin receptor antagonister påverkar dessa receptor komplex samt hur denna påverkan moduleras i rått modeler för rädsla/ångest. Två mycket tillförlitliga djurmodeller (råtta) skall användas för sjukdomen ångest: Den upphöjda T labyrinten , där djuret undviker de öppna armarna i labyrinten, och nedgrävningen av shock sond, där råttan i testet gräver ned en elektrifierad sond efter att ha blivit shockad. Dessa tester är högst adekvata och de mest validerade modellerna för att studera icke-konditionerad fara/ångest. Förändringar av dessa receptorkomplex i hjärnvävnad från djurmodellerna med eller utan behandling med oxytocin och i cell modeler efter incubation med oxytocin receptor agonist/antagonist kommer att studeras med neurokemiska och molekylärbiologiska metoder, samt genom särskilda mikroskoperingsmetoder, där inmärkta receptor antikroppar används för att mäta och åskådliggöra hur receptorer bildar receptor komplex med varandra.Vi skall alltså testa vår hypotes att oxytocin kan representera antiångest läkemedel genom att öka D2 signaleringen i oxytocinR-D2R heteromeren och alpha2adrenergR signaleringen i oxytocinR-alpha2adrenergR heteromeren .

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.

Harsh conditions and internal problems have contributed to opposition parties in these countries being dismissed as failed. We question this and argue that repression and political manipulation have not eliminated opposition but given it a dynamic and transformational character. The project has three main aims: investigate recent organizational changes within Azerbaijani and Belarusian oppositions; observe and analyze the new opposition dynamics in action; and develop a toolbox on how to build a constructive opposition. The theoretical start is Bounce & Wolchik´s electoral model arguing that consolidation and actions of oppositional actors is more important than structural factors for regime change. Empirically, focusing on 2015 elections in Azerbaijan and Belarus, we will shed light on if and how opposition has managed to overcome its systematic failures and build a sustainable alternative political strategy. The study is based on interviews with politicians and democracy activists and debriefing workshops where observations will be shared, challenged and refined in talks with local and international activists, practitioners and researchers. The knowledge generated is important in the formulation of development policies towards the region. Our findings will be valuable tool for those involved in democracy assistance as well as those working for change. 2015 hålls parlamentsval och presidentval i Azerbajdzjan respektive Vitryssland. Dessa val är i fokus i vårt projekt. De fyra forskarna i vårt internationella team (från Sverige, Frankrike, Azerbajdzjan och Vitryssland) kommer att genomföra en ingående, kvalitativ, jämförande studie av hur opposition mobiliserar i Azerbajdzjan och Vitryssland under valprocessen. Studien baseras på intervjuer med partimedlemmar och demokratiaktivister och ett antal workshops där observationerna diskuteras med lokala och internationella aktivister, praktiker och forskare. Allmänna och återkommande val är numera snarare regel än undantag i de flesta av världens länder, men valen i så kallade elektorala autokratier (dit Azerbajdzjan och Vitryssland räknas) är ett spel för gallerierna. Dessa regimer håller regelbundna val men systematiska och långtgående kränkningar av grundläggande fri- och rättigheter gör att de inte är trovärdiga. Valen har emellertid blivit en viktig symbol för regimerna som vill påvisa att de är demokratiska. Också inom landet används valen som ett sätt att manifestera självständighet och demokratiska framsteg. För de som vill se politisk förändring blir valen, trots att de ofta är uppgjorda på förhand, viktiga eftersom valrörelsen egentligen är det enda tillfälle då oppositionspolitiker får tillgång till det offentliga rummet. I tidigare forskning, men också i allmänhet, beskrivs oftast politisk opposition i Azerbajdzjan och Vitryssland som marginaliserad, oorganiserad, ostrukturerad och dömd att misslyckas. Efter snart tjugo års kamp har oppositionspartierna inte lyckats åstadkomma något konkret. I ett antal andra post-sovjetiska stater som lyckades oppositionen med konststycket att störta korrupta diktatorer i färgstarka, blomdoftande demokratiska folkresningar under tidigt 2000-tal. Inte i Azerbajdzjan och Vitryssland, vilket tolkats som symptomatiskt för oppositionens inkompetens. Vi menar att det är dags att omvärdera den här synen. Även om det auktoritära styret i de här länderna är statiskt, eller förändras till det sämre, så är oppositionen mot det dynamisk. Förtryck, politisk manipulation och våldsamma trauman (i samband med tidigare valprotester) har startat en förändringsprocess hos oppositionspartierna. Kampen för politisk förändring bedrivs inte heller längre bara av politiska partier utan även religiösa grupper, ungdomsorganisationer, demokratiaktivister och andra individer kan räknas som oppositionella. Vårt projekt har både teoretiska och empiriska ambitioner. Först vill vi bidra till den vetenskapliga debatten kring demokratisering i auktoritära stater. Vi sällar oss här till den forskningsinriktning som hävdar att för att lyckas få till stånd regimskifte är det viktigaste en enig oppositionsrörelse, med ett starkt stöd från civilsamhället, som bedriver en konstruktiv, innovativ och massiv valmobiliseringskampanj till viss del stödd av internationella aktörer. Genom att analysera och problematisera politisk opposition och mobilisering i två fall där oppositionen redan avskrivits som misslyckad, med teoretiska verktyg som fokuserar på oppositionens karaktär och aktiviteter som genererats i studier av färgrevolutionerna, hoppas vi kunna bidra med kunskap om vad som karaktäriserar oppositionens pånyttfödelse och dess förändringsprocess samt vad som krävs för att oppositionskrafter i auktoritära stater ska bli framgångsrika. Empiriskt så studerar vi skillnader i sammansättningen och strategier hos oppositionen i Azerbajdzjan och Vitryssland, och hur dessa skillnader kan förstås. I vårt projekt finns också en mer policyinriktad strävan. Med tanke på att både Azerbajdzjan och Vitryssland är med i EUs Östliga partnerskap - ett initiativ för att underlätta närmandet mellan dessa länder och EU - är ökad kunskap om de politiska processerna i dessa länder viktig.

Where demographic studies simply use abstract statistics to identify youth bulges and give woeful predictions of renewed conflicts driven by armies of disenfranchised youth, this study will concretely investigate how young people make a living in some of the poorest countries in the world. Youth in Sierra Leone and Liberia fought ten years of civil war. Socio-economy remains much the same in both countries after the war - poor remain poor. But does it mean that history will repeat itself, or will youth benefit from the new African growth - so much talked about. Through in-depth studies and long-term engagement we answer questions such as: How are labor structures manifested, and how do they change? How do young people find work in post-conflict landscapes and what does this mean for the societies they are part of? In particular, what impact do labor market experiences and the mechanisms for finding employment have on longitudinal relationships of dependence? This project aims to explore youths´ navigation of employment trajectories, and more particularly the role of young labor migration in the functioning of labor markets in Liberia and Sierra Leone. As such, it is an urgent study of a contemporary phenomenon in Africa; combining the fashionable topic of youth unemployment with the under-researched area of post-conflict labor markets and circular migration within countries. Hur hittar unga människor arbete i Liberia och Sierra Leone? Det här forskningsprojektet tar vid där många studier om unga afrikaner slutar: i efterkrigsmiljö. Flera samtida studier har sammankopplat ungdomsarbetslöshet med social oro, våldsamheter och förnyade konflikter. *Cirkulär nomadism: ungdom och arbete i efterkrigens Liberia och Sierra Leone* blickar bortom statistik och siffror. Istället undersöker vi mekanismerna bakom dessa förhållanden genom att kartlägga unga liberianers och sierra leoners strategier för att hitta arbete. Ett stort antal unga män och kvinnor deltog i över tio års inbördeskrig i de båda länderna. Krigen sågs av många unga som en revolt mot de äldre generationerna och mot ett samhälle som hindrat dem från att förändra och förbättra sin livssituation. Tyvärr finns sociala och ekonomiska orättvisor i stor utsträckning kvar efter krigens slut. Makt och pengar i två av världens fattigaste länder är fortfarande i händerna på en liten elit. Fattiga unga män och kvinnor i Liberia och Sierra Leone utkämpar en hård kamp för att överleva och arbetsmarknaden utgör allt som oftast ett hinder för deras möjligheter till att förbättra sina liv. Betyder detta att ländernas våldsamma historia riskerar att upprepa sig, eller kommer dessa unga att få ta del av den nya afrikanska tillväxten? Det är svårt för unga i Liberia och Sierra Leone att hitta arbete idag. Formella och stabila anställningar hör inte till vanligheterna och unga män och kvinnor måste därför vara mobila och flexibla. Forskning pekar på att unga ofta har flera olika inkomstbringande aktiviteter samtidigt och att de hittar arbete genom informella nätverk bestående av familj och vänner. Många gånger måste de flytta för att få jobb - till staden från landet - eller från staden till gruvområden och plantager. Anställningarna är osäkra, tidsbegränsade och inkomsterna är skrämmande små. I städerna är unga män och kvinnor försäljare på marknaden, taxichaufförer eller mekaniker. De har nästan alltid också ansvar för hem och hushåll samt hjälper till att försörja både släkt och vänner. Väldigt få har råd att vara arbetslösa när inget välfärdssystem finns och alla är beroende av varandra för att klara dagen. Samtidigt hindrar arbetsmarknaden såsom den ser ut idag unga från att integreras formellt i samhället. Med detta som bakgrund undersöker projektet ungdomars väg till arbete genom att titta på hur och var unga hittar arbete inom de två länderna, de informella nätverk genom vilka jobb oftast förmedlas, samt arbetsmarknadernas struktur. Studien utförs med hjälp av etnografisk metod; djupstudier och direkt umgänge under långa perioder för att på så sätt nå djupare och mer detaljerad kunskap om ungdomarnas situation. Forskningsprojektets resultat kommer fördjupa kunskapen om unga och arbete i Liberia och Sierra Leone, men även producera generaliserbar data. Det kommer skapa förståelse för hur unga män och kvinnor får ekonomin, och därmed även livet, att gå runt. Resultaten kommer vara betydelsefulla, i akademisk kontext, men också i mer policyinriktade sammanhang. Vi utvecklar ett teoretiskt ramverk som är användbart för att undersöka ung arbetsmigration i postkonfliktmiljöer med särskilt fokus på informella strukturer. Projektet kommer tillföra ett välbehövligt empiriskt material om ungas arbetssituation i postkonfliktområden. Ungdomssysselsättning är idag ett prioriterat område, inte bara i de två länder som projektet undersöker, utan även i ett större afrikanskt sammanhang av efterkrigsmiljöer med stora, unga befolkningar. Resultaten kommer bidra med kunskap till svenskt utvecklings- och biståndsarbete. Studien kommer ge upphov till en fördjupad dialog mellan forskning och praktik. Genom att anlägga ett genusperspektiv och fokusera särskilt på unga kvinnors erfarenheter på arbetsmarknaden ger projektet även plats åt en samhällsgrupp som ofta exkluderas i ungdomsstudier i Afrika.

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. This project is a determinant step in that direction and can lead to the implementation of a viable, inclusive, and environment friendly smartphone teleconsultation system to strengthen burn injury care in several resource poor settings, to benefit all, but mainly the poorest segments of the population. Brännskador är ett stort globalt hälsoproblem som är nära kopplat till fattiga levnadsförhållanden. Snabbt omhändertagande och rätt typ av vård är en förutsättning för att minska sjukligheten och dödligheten till följd av brännskador. Mobiltelefonbaserade system för specialistkonsultation kan vara ett sätt att stärka det lokala omhändertagandet i områden där brännskadeexperter saknas. Ett sådant system har utvecklats och håller för närvarande på att börja användas i Sydafrika. En applikation (app) har installerats på mobiltelefoner på 8 sjukhus i Västra Kapprovinsen som möjliggör för den lokala personalen att ta kort på brännskadorna och skicka dessa tillsammans med information om den brännskadade patienten till en brännskadespecialist för att sedan få tillbaka rekommendationer om behandling. Syftet med projektet är att utvärdera om och hur ett mobilbaserat diagnosstöd för akuta brännskador kan förbättra det akuta omhändertagandet av brännskador, både när det gäller omhändertagandet av patienterna och kvaliteten på vården de får. Detta kommer att göras genom att utvärdera förändringar i diagnostisering och omhändertagande av patienterna (ex. om de behandlas på plats eller remitteras till en specialstavdelning) samt om resultatet av vården har förändrats över tid. Personalens upplevelse av systemet och systemets kostnadseffektivit kommer även att utvärderas. Systemet kommer stegvis att introduceras i Tanzania och Etiopien med start i början av år 2016. Brännskadespecialisterna i Sydafrika kommer att involveras som experter även i dessa länder. Det här projektet kommer att bygga på den utvärdering som redan är påbörjad i Sydafrika, men kommer att möjliggöra en mer omfattande och robust utvärdering. Genom att systemet också startas i andra länder kommer även viktiga miljöaspekter att kunna tas med i utvärderingen. Den första delen av utvärderingen kommer att inkludera de sjukhus som redan använder systemet i Sydafrika och de 2-3 sjukhus där systemet kommer att introduceras i Tanzania. I ett andra steg kommer 2-3 sjukhus i Etiopien att börja använda systemet och även bli inkluderade i utvärderingen när det gäller hur de upplever systemet. Det finns ett stort behov av att utveckla billiga, snabba och hållbara lösningar för att stärka den akuta brännskadevården i resurssvaga områden. Det här projektet kan bidra till detta genom ett billigt och miljövänligt mobiltelefonbaserat konsultationssystem.

En applikation (app) har installerats på mobiltelefoner på 8 sjukhus i Västra Kapprovinsen som möjliggör för den lokala personalen att ta kort på brännskadorna och skicka dessa tillsammans med information om den brännskadade patienten till en brännskadespecialist för att sedan få tillbaka rekommendationer om behandling. Syftet med projektet är att utvärdera om och hur ett mobilbaserat diagnosstöd för akuta brännskador kan förbättra det akuta omhändertagandet av brännskador, både när det gäller omhändertagandet av patienterna och kvaliteten på vården de får. Detta kommer att göras genom att utvärdera förändringar i diagnostisering och omhändertagande av patienterna (ex. om de behandlas på plats eller remitteras till en specialstavdelning) samt om resultatet av vården har förändrats över tid. Personalens upplevelse av systemet och systemets kostnadseffektivit kommer även att utvärderas. Systemet kommer stegvis att introduceras i Tanzania och Etiopien med start i början av år 2016. Brännskadespecialisterna i Sydafrika kommer att involveras som experter även i dessa länder. Det här projektet kommer att bygga på den utvärdering som redan är påbörjad i Sydafrika, men kommer att möjliggöra en mer omfattande och robust utvärdering. Genom att systemet också startas i andra länder kommer även viktiga miljöaspekter att kunna tas med i utvärderingen. Den första delen av utvärderingen kommer att inkludera de sjukhus som redan använder systemet i Sydafrika och de 2-3 sjukhus där systemet kommer att introduceras i Tanzania. I ett andra steg kommer 2-3 sjukhus i Etiopien att börja använda systemet och även bli inkluderade i utvärderingen när det gäller hur de upplever systemet. Det finns ett stort behov av att utveckla billiga, snabba och hållbara lösningar för att stärka den akuta brännskadevården i resurssvaga områden. Det här projektet kan bidra till detta genom ett billigt och miljövänligt mobiltelefonbaserat konsultationssystem.

Complications from spontaneous and unsafely induced abortions add significantly to maternal mortality and morbidity. The problem is most pronounced in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy. In low resource settings including Uganda where abortion is restrictive and often self-induced, it is imperative to provide PAC. PAC services include treatment of abortion complications such as incomplete abortion and infection and provision of contraception if required. To date, there is no established medical regimen for second trimester PAC and the recommended method is surgical manual vacuum aspiration (MVA) despite that equipment, and training is frequently lacking. Unsafe and outdated methods such as sharp curettage are frequently used. If available a medical method would incerase access to safe PAC. Therefore we propose to study the efficacy, safety and acceptability of misoprostol treatment versus MVA in a randomised controlled non-inferiority trial (RCT) including 1030 women seeking treatment for incomplete second trimester spontaneous or induced abortion at six District Health Centres in central Uganda. Primary outcome is the efficacy of the treatment to expel the retained tissue without need for additional surgical intervention. Secondary outcomes will include the safety, and acceptability of PAC provision by treatment group (MVA and misoprostol) and contraceptive uptake. All health care providers (doctors and midwives (contraceptive counselling)) providing PAC will be trained according to standardized PAC training modules. The WHO recommended misoprostol regimen for second trimester induced abortion will be used for PAC: 400mcg sublingual every 3 hours up to 5 doses Inclusion criteria: Bleeding and contractions during pregnancy. Exclusions criteria: Women < 15 years old, known allergy to misoprostol, a uterine size < 12 weeks or > 15 weeks, unstable hemodynamic status and chock, signs of pelvic infection and/or sepsis. Main and secondary outcomes will be evaluated at follow up visit between 14-28 days by a obstetrician/gynecologist blinded to treatment allocation. A study cocordinating centre will be established at Mulago Hospital, Kampala. Preparations, permissions, and training will be ready by mid 2016. It is estimated that recruitment will start in 2016 and continue thorugh 2017. In 2018 data cleaning, analyses, and dissemination will be performed. Significance. We have shown that misoprostol is highly effective, acceptable and can safely be administered by midwives for first trimester PAC. There are several reasons to investigate the medical management option also for second trimester incomplete abortion including the difficulty in providing surgical methods in low resource settings due to scarcity of trained providers, sterile equipment and poor access to high level centres where surgical procedures are safely performed. Out-dated, unsafe methods such as sharp curettage are frequently used by untrained providers. In addition, in the setting of Ebola crisis where women are having abortions or miscarriages and there is reticence to have direct contact with infected women, an effective medical PAC regimen is paramount. In conjunction to the issue of limited trained providers, a misoprostol alone regimen for PAC would allow increased access. Results from this study can act as a springboard for future studies on midlevel provision of medical regimen for incomplete abortion management in the second trimester. The result will be used to inform policy makers and to revise training and service-delivery guidelines’ on a national level in Uganda.

Varje år görs cirka 20 miljoner illegala aborter och minst 100,000 kvinnor mister livet till följd av en osäkert utförd abort, ofullständigt missfall och/ eller avsaknad av preventivmedel, oönskad graviditet och de komplikationer detta medför. Genom ökad tillgång till effektiva, säkra och accepterade preventivmedel. abortmetoder och behandling av ofullständiga aborter inklusive missfall, så kallad ”Post Abortion Care” (PAC), kan dessa dödsfall förebyggas. Traditionellt utförs PAC med kirugiska metoder. Våra tidigare studier har lett till en förenklad medicinsk behandling av ofullständiga 1a trimesteraborter genom användning av misoprostol (abortpiller). Denna behandling är säker och effektiv och väl accepterad av kvinnor. En stor fördel är att den kan utföras av barnmorskor även inom primärvård där tillgång till läkare och möjlighet till operationer och kirurgisk behandling ofta saknas. De allra flesta komplikationer och dödsfall efter osäkra aborter sker dock i senare graviditeter under andra trimestern, en period då man sällan ser ofullständiga spontana missfall. Kirurgisk behandling vid andra trimester PAC är mer komplicerad och görs oftare med osäkra metoder. Medicinsk behandling av andra trimester PAC saknas. Som ett led i att minska abortrelaterad dödlighet och sjuklighet bland kvinnor världen över är tillgång till preventivmedel och preventivmedelsrådgivning inkluderade i PAC centralt. Projektet: Projektet genomförs på distriktsnivå i centrala Uganda. Hög fertilitet, låg preventivmedelsanvändning som leder till oönskade graviditeter med efterföljande osäkra aborter är vanligt i Uganda. Ökad tillgänglighet till säker PAC behandling för kvinnor boende på landsbygd kan minska dödlighet och sjuklighet i relation till osäkert utförda andra trimester aborter. Hälsoministerierna liksom WHO ser det som nödvändigt att hitta metoder för att minska den höga mödradödligheten. Stöd från regeringsnivå och medverkande lokala forskare ökar projektets genomförbarhet. Syfte och metod: För att utvärdera effektivitet och säkerhet av misoprostol som behandling vid ofullständig abort i andra trimestern jämfört med kirurgisk behandling med så kallad MVA, planeras en randomiserad kontrollerad studie. Genomförande: 1030 kvinnor som söker vård för ofullständig andra trimester abort på sex olika vårdcentraler/distriktssjukhus i centrala Uganda lottas till kirurgisk eller medicinsk behandling. Utfallen som analyseras är fullständig abort utan komplikation, acceptans och val/start av preventivmedelsmetod. Projektets betydelse: Projektet kommer att ge helt ny information om andra trimester PAC med misoprostol med avseende på effektivitet, säkerhet och acceptans. Om en medicinsk behandling är minst lika effektiv som kirurgisk behandling kan detta öka kvinnors tillgänglighet till säker behandling av ofullständig abort på primärvårdsnivå och minska användningen av osäkra metoder. Att utveckla en medicinsk behandlingsmetod för PAC är angeläget av flera skäl men inkluderar svårigheter att använda kirurgi på grund av brist på läkare och steril utrustning och få center utrustade för kirurgi vid andra trimester ingrepp. Behovet av medicinsk behandling har också blivit tydligt under Ebola krisen för att hantera inkompletta aborter och missfall utan direkt kontakt med den infekterade kvinnan. En medicinsk behandling kan potentiellt även utföras av barnmorskor. Projektet kan också leda till förbättrad preventivmedelsrådgivning vid PAC behandling. Resultatet av studierna kan komma att bidra till minskad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet dels genom utveckling av bättre tillgång till säker vård efter abort dels genom att förebygga oönskade graviditeter och därmed skador och komplikationer av osäkert utförda aborter.

One way to solve this is desalination, which is simply a method to remove salt and other minerals from sea water. However, a large-scale desalination plant are restricted to areas with good and reliable energy supply and existing electric grid. In many of the developing countries, the infrastructure required to run a desalination plant is not available. The purpose with this project is to investigate the prerequisites for using a wave energy plant located on the Kenyan coast to power a desalination plant for producing fresh and clean water. The project will be based on the wave energy conversion system developed by the Division for electricity at Uppsala University. The study includes an assessment of the wave energy potential in Kenya, measurements of the load criteria for a desalination plant that together with modeling of the power production of a wave energy plant will give input on how to design and operate a desalination plant that is powered by wave energy. The main goal of the project is an improved access to clean water and an increase in renewable energy in a developing country. But the plant, if realized, will also lead to more jobs and a more developed and sustainable infrastructure and thereby increase the resources and economic growth within the country. Det globala behovet av och bristen på rent och friskt vatten att dricka, för renhållning och jordbruk är ett ständigt växande problem, särskilt i utvecklingsländer med låg naturlig tillgång till färskvatten. Ett sätt att lösa detta är genom avsaltning, vilket helt enkelt är en metod att ta bort salt och andra mineraler från havsvatten. Men en storskalig avsaltningsanläggning begränsas till områden med god och tillförlitlig energitillförsel och befintliga elnät, vilket saknas eller är inte fullt utbyggt i många av världens utvecklingsländer. Enligt US Geological Survey, fanns år 2002 cirka 12 500 avsaltningsanläggningar runt om i världen med en daglig produktion av färskvatten på cirka 14 miljoner m3/dygn. De största användarna av avsaltat vatten idag ligger i Mellanöstern och där uppskattas produktion 2020 uppgå till cirka 40 miljoner m3/dygn. Länder som saknar ett väl utbyggt elnät skulle kunna lösa problemet genom att driva avsaltningsanläggningen med ett isolerat kraftverk. Flera förnybara energikällor har föreslagits och undersökts för att använda för färskvattenproduktion t.ex. vind, sol, och geotermi. Ett exempel på en autonom (utanför elnätet) avsaltningsanläggning med vindkraft är SDAWES projektet på Gran Canaria. I det projekt användes två 230 kW vindturbiner för att driva en avsaltningsanläggning. Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka förutsättningarna för att använda en vågenergianläggning belägen på den Kenyanska kusten för att driva en avsaltningsanläggning som ska producera färskt och rent vatten i Kenya. Ett antal vågkraftskoncept har undersökts för möjligheten att användas för avsaltning av havsvatten, både indirekt genom att använda den producerade elen till att driva en avsaltningsnläggning samt direkt genom att ha en avsaltningsmekanism inbyggd i vågkraftverket. Det här projektet kommer att baseras på den vågkraftsteknik som utvecklas av Avdelningen för elektricitetslära vid Uppsala universitet. Det är en teknik som utvecklats i över 10 år och som har testats i full skala vid en testanläggning utanför Lysekil på den svenska västkusten. Den studie som ska göras omfattar en bedömningav vågenergipotentialen i Kenya, uppskattningar av effektkvaliteten som krävs för en avsaltningsanläggning som tillsammans med modellering av kraftproduktionen från en storskalig vågkraftsanläggning kommer att ge information om hur man kan utforma och driva en avsaltningsanläggning som drivs av vågenergi. Parallelt med det så ska en PESTLE analys utföras för att utvärdera projektets acceptans och attraktivitet. Det huvudsakliga målet med projektet är en förbättrad tillgång till rent vatten och en ökning av förnybar energi i ett utvecklingsland. Men anläggningen, om den förverkligas, kommer också att leda till fler arbetstillfällen och en mer utvecklad och hållbar infrastruktur och därmed främja den ekonomiska tillväxten i landet.

Enligt US Geological Survey, fanns år 2002 cirka 12 500 avsaltningsanläggningar runt om i världen med en daglig produktion av färskvatten på cirka 14 miljoner m3/dygn. De största användarna av avsaltat vatten idag ligger i Mellanöstern och där uppskattas produktion 2020 uppgå till cirka 40 miljoner m3/dygn. Länder som saknar ett väl utbyggt elnät skulle kunna lösa problemet genom att driva avsaltningsanläggningen med ett isolerat kraftverk. Flera förnybara energikällor har föreslagits och undersökts för att använda för färskvattenproduktion t.ex. vind, sol, och geotermi. Ett exempel på en autonom (utanför elnätet) avsaltningsanläggning med vindkraft är SDAWES projektet på Gran Canaria. I det projekt användes två 230 kW vindturbiner för att driva en avsaltningsanläggning. Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka förutsättningarna för att använda en vågenergianläggning belägen på den Kenyanska kusten för att driva en avsaltningsanläggning som ska producera färskt och rent vatten i Kenya. Ett antal vågkraftskoncept har undersökts för möjligheten att användas för avsaltning av havsvatten, både indirekt genom att använda den producerade elen till att driva en avsaltningsnläggning samt direkt genom att ha en avsaltningsmekanism inbyggd i vågkraftverket. Det här projektet kommer att baseras på den vågkraftsteknik som utvecklas av Avdelningen för elektricitetslära vid Uppsala universitet. Det är en teknik som utvecklats i över 10 år och som har testats i full skala vid en testanläggning utanför Lysekil på den svenska västkusten. Den studie som ska göras omfattar en bedömningav vågenergipotentialen i Kenya, uppskattningar av effektkvaliteten som krävs för en avsaltningsanläggning som tillsammans med modellering av kraftproduktionen från en storskalig vågkraftsanläggning kommer att ge information om hur man kan utforma och driva en avsaltningsanläggning som drivs av vågenergi. Parallelt med det så ska en PESTLE analys utföras för att utvärdera projektets acceptans och attraktivitet. Det huvudsakliga målet med projektet är en förbättrad tillgång till rent vatten och en ökning av förnybar energi i ett utvecklingsland. Men anläggningen, om den förverkligas, kommer också att leda till fler arbetstillfällen och en mer utvecklad och hållbar infrastruktur och därmed främja den ekonomiska tillväxten i landet.

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.

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.

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.

When managing bacterial infections it is important and often crucial that antibiotics are given without delay, however the spread of antibiotic resistance due to over-prescription of antibiotics is becoming a major global public health problem and a challenge for clinicians everywhere. Consequently, there is a great need for tools that help clinicians manage febrile children, particularly in resource-limited settings, so that treatments and antibiotic regimens may be guided. Infections of the central nervous system (CNS) are life-threatening and annually more than 1.2 million cases of bacterial meningitis occur worldwide. Many of these occur in Sub-Saharan African areas with little or no access to laboratory diagnostics and are therefore left undiagnosed and untreated, with fatal outcomes. There is therefore a great need for diagnostic methods that are applicable to low-income settings. OBJECTIVES Development and clinical evaluation of new rapid multiplexed microarray technologies that can be applied as Point-of-Care (POC) diagnostics of paediatric infections of the CNS, with a particular focus on low-income countries. METHODS Our partners at Science for Life Laboratory have through extensive research and development shown that paperbased microarray concepts might be applicable as rapid, affordable, durable, easy-to-use, reliable and highly multiplexed diagnostic methods suitable for POC analysis in low-income countries. Through the use of paperbased protein and DNA microarrays, various biofluids (blood, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, sputum and others.) can easily be analysed and semiquantitative measurements of different proteins and biomarkers can be presented within minutes. Levels of blood glucose or inflammatory markers such as CRP, concentrations of electrolytes or the presence of pathogens such as bacteria or viruses in biofluids, are examples of what could be visualised in a time- and resource efficient manner in a low-income setting. The project is a true translational research project where the Karolinska Institute team will work together with partners at Science for Life Laboratory and the Mbarara University of Science & Technology and Médecins Sans Frontières Epicentre. We will conduct clinical evaluation studies of these novel paperbased microarray concepts of POC. The studies will be conducted at Mbarara Hospital, in South-Western Uganda. PLANNED STUDIES A) Development and optimize performance of a) novel combined affinity proteomic assay and b) novel PCR/DNA microarray assay, both amenable for POC diagnostics of paediatric CNS infection in low- and middle-income countries. B) Evaluation of the new POC techniques by applying them on 273 previously collected samples from paediatric patients in Uganda with suspected CNS infections. C) Determining the diagnostic accuracy and study the clinical utility and usability of the new POC test on paediatric CNS infections in a prospective study on 300 children with suspected CNS infections in a hospital setting in South-Western Uganda. SIGNIFICANCE This project has the potential to significantly improve diagnostics and outcomes of various infectious diseases affecting children in low-income countries. Our highly multidisciplinary and international research team is dedicated to the continued development of the described multiplexed paper-based microarray concepts towards the deployment of a POC tool that tends to the actual needs and requirements of local health personnel in low-income countries. The success of this research project would be a proof a concept allowing further development of microarray techniques towards POC-testing of other medical conditions, and could assist in spreading the availability of good healthcare to the most vulnerable populations. Infektioner är den enskilt största orsaken till sjuklighet och dödlighet hos barn. I höginkomstländer gör god tillgång till sjukvård att behandlingskrävande infektioner upptäcks och behandlas i ett tidigt skede. I låginkomstländer däremot kan brist på näringsrik mat och rent dricksvatten, långa avstånd till (eller total avsaknad av) sjukvårdsinrättningar, otillräckliga vaccinationsprogram, och allmän resursbrist leda till att lindriga infektioner kan utvecklas till allvarliga. Små barn har svårt att förmedla sina besvär och ofta är feber enda tecknet till allvarlig sjukdom. För vårdspersonal kan feber hos ett spädbarn misstänkas bero på allt ifrån lindrig virusorsakad förkylning till livshotande bakteriell hjärnhinneinflammation (meningit) och särskiljandet mellan dessa två är svår trots tillgång till dyr och avancerad laboratorieutrustning. Än svårare är det utan tillgång till sådan utrustning. Nya billiga, lättanvända och träffsäkra diagnostiska metoder som stöd i avgörandet om huruvida feber hos barn står för något livshotande eller ej skulle kunna vara till stor nytta för vårdspersonal i låginkomstländer, med potential att förbättra överlevnaden av allvarliga barninfektioner. Vårt forskningsprojekt ämnar utvärdera en ny lovande snabbdiagnostisk metod framtagen på Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab), med fokus på dess kliniska tillämpbarhet vid misstanke om meningit hos barn, samt dess användbarhet för vårdspersonal i Mbarara, Uganda. SciLifeLab har utvecklat ett koncept där det på små pappersbitar förtrycks hundratals millimeterstora prickar. Varje prick utgörs av tusentals antikroppar som endast kan binda upp ett specifikt ämne. En prick kan bestå av antikroppar mot blodsockermolekyler, grannpricken av antikroppar mot infektionsproteiner, osv. Förekomsten av ett ämne i den kroppsvätska (blod, snor, slem, urin, ryggmärgsvätska etc.) som analyseras med denna metod resulterar i att det binder till sina specifika antikroppar i pricken, varpå pricken ändrar nyans. Olika halter av ämnet ger olika nyanser av pricken. De hundratals prickarna kan samtidigt svara på halten av lika många ämnen i den analyserade vätskan. Tolkningen av det prickmönster som uppstår på de runda pappersbitarna görs av en vanlig smartphone där dess kamera gör en optisk avläsning varpå mönstret tolkas av en särskilt framtagen app. Inom minuter kan man på telefondisplayen avläsa innehållet i den analyserade kroppsvätskan. Genom att förbehandla analysmaterialet kan man även påvisa förekomsten av ev. mikroorganismer, såsom bakterier och virus.Analysmetoden kräver väldigt lite personalupplärning och nödvändig utrustning är billig. Tekniken bakom denna metod har länge funnits tillgänglig i graviditetstester, snabbtester för halsfluss och liknande. Där dessa tester hittills endast svarat på en eller ett fåtal frågeställningar (”Är jag gravid?”) kan metoden från SciLifeLab ge svar på många fler. Vi vill studera den praktiska tillämpningen och nyttan av denna metod i en klinisk omgivning där konventionell laboratorieutrustning är en bristvara. Tack vare ett samarbete med Mbarara Hospital och Läkare Utan Gränsers forskningslaboratorium i Mbarara, Uganda, har vi på ett tidigt stadium kunnat inhämta önskemål om egenskaper en idealisk POC-metod bör ha i fält. Utifrån dessa har vi i samråd beslutat att fokusera den första kliniska utvärderingen av metodens användbarhet på diagnostik av meningit. Bakteriell meningit drabbar årligen ca 1,2 miljoner barn och utan snabb behandling uppgår dödligheten till närmre 100 %. Symtom på meningit kan till en början vara diskreta och för att bekräfta en misstanke om meningit krävs insamling, analys och bakterieodling av den sjukes ryggmärgsvätska. Detta ställer idag krav på utbildad personal samt en viss infrastruktur för analys och odling av vätskan, något som inte kan tillgodoses i låginkomstområden som Mbarara.

Symtom på meningit kan till en början vara diskreta och för att bekräfta en misstanke om meningit krävs insamling, analys och bakterieodling av den sjukes ryggmärgsvätska. Detta ställer idag krav på utbildad personal samt en viss infrastruktur för analys och odling av vätskan, något som inte kan tillgodoses i låginkomstområden som Mbarara. Detta leder ofta till felaktig diagnostik och behandling, och bidrar till en fortsatt farl Sweden Karolinska Institutet The Swedish Research Council Karolinska Institutet 3.b - Support the research and development of vaccines and medicines for the communicable and non-communicable diseases that primarily affect developing countries, provide access to affordable essential medicines and vaccines, in accordance with the Doha Declaration on the TRIPS Agreement and Public Health, which affirms the right of developing countries to use to the full the provisions in the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights regarding flexibilities to protect public healt 3.b - Stödja forskning om och utveckling av vaccin och läkemedel mot de smittsamma och icke-smittsamma sjukdomar som i första hand drabbar utvecklingsländer.

This Atmospheric Brown Cloud (ABC), with BC as a key component, cause severe effects on both the regional climate and the quality of the air people breathe, yet the relative source contributions from e.g. biomass vs fossil fuel combustion are poorly constrained. Atmospheric BC from biomass vs fossil fuel combustion have different intrinsic impacts on climate and health; fossil-BC have stronger mass-normalized solar absorption efficiency and is smaller in size, thus able to penetrate further into the lungs. Hence, it is imperative to reduce uncertainties regarding BC sources and emissions. Unfortunately, bottom-up technology-based emission inventories (EI) – the common input for models of climate and air quality and a policy tool for mitigation decisions – has large uncertainties in BC sources and emissions, with predictions ranging by factors 3-5. This project will further develop and apply microscale 14C-dating of BC aerosols to provide powerful observation-based top-down information on the relative contribution from combustion of fossil fuel (extinct 14C) and biomass (contemporary 14C) to the BC in the actual atmosphere. Our initial month-long studies have demonstrated systematic underestimation in the fractional fossil contribution of all 8 BC-EI for India (Gustafsson et al., 2009 Science) and in all 12 BC-EI for China (Chen et al., incl Gustafsson, 2013). In collaboration with aerosol researchers in Bangladesh, one of the most polluted regions on Earth and the "exhaust pipe" of S Asia, we propose the first year-round 14C-BC source forensics assessment for S Asia. Building on recent Swe-Bangla pilot study, we propose 24-mo BC source apportionment campaigns in both highly-polluted megacity Dhaka and in rural southern Bangladesh at the newly established Bhola Observatory (now part of the international UNEP-ABC program set of receptor observatories). This site provides an opportunity to source fingerprint the load of BC that have accumulated through the Pakistan – N India – Bangladesh air transport; it thus provides an integrated perspective of sources to the BC influencing the larger-scale regional climate. The three objectives and approaches are: (1) 14C-based quantification of the relative contribution of biomass vs fossil fuel combustion to BC in megacity Dhaka and regional receptor site Bhola. Benefit: Pinning down the sources of BC aerosols in S Asia allows us to better understand its effects on climate, respiratory health and to guide policy options toward mitigation. (2) Assimilate a battery of diagnostic source markers (Δ14C, δ13C and pyrogenic molecules) to refine apportionment of multiple sources. Benefit: Statistical modeling of the generated source-diagnostic database with Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations will yield an improved description of BC sources to the polluted air over Bangladesh between fossil-liquid, fossil-coal, biomass-woodfuel, biomass – crop residue burning. (3) Compare this top-down source apportionment of atmospheric BC with predictions from bottom-up BC emission inventories (EI) using a coupled EI-transport model (Eclipse-Flexpart). Benefit: Responding to a general plea of independent observation-based tests of BC-EI predictions, the composition-based source apportionment will contribute to diagnose the reliability of present EI and diagnose areas for improvement, to the benefit of climate and air quality models. The quantitative information on contributions from fossil vs biomass combustion sources, generated in close collaboration with a strong Bangladeshi aerosol group, will beyond high-impact research articles also be used to advise the Env Ministry of Bangladesh (and briefed to UNEP and Env Ministry of Sweden) to guide policy options toward BC mitigation. KOL-14 DATERING 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 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 inte minst i södra Asien. Koalitionen efterfrågar studier för att förbättra det vetenskapliga underlaget kring SLCP, med ett fokus på information som kan underlätta effektiva åtgärder. Ett viktigt exempel på detta är kunskap om de relativa utsläppsbidragen från olika källor, vilket det föreslagna projektet syftar till. Ofullständig förbränning från många olika aktiviteter, såsom trafik, industrier, tegelbruk, vedeldning, öppna eldar och svedjebruk inom jordbruket bidrar till bildningen av BC/sot-innehållande Bruna Moln i atmosfären, som under vinterns torrperiod täcker Bangladesh och stora delar av södra Asien samt påverkar året runt både det regionala klimatet och luften som folk andas. Dessvärre försvåras åtgärder för att minska utsläppen av ett betydande kunskapsglapp kring de relativa bidragen till den smutsiga luften från de olika utsläppskällorna. Vilka slags källor är viktigast? På grund av de regionala vindmönstrena så drabbas Bangladesh oproportionerligt hårt av utsläppen av luftföroreningar genom gränsöverskridande transport från Indien utöver de betydande inhemska utsläppen. Detta leder till ett tjockt brunt moln eller smog av luftföroreningar över Bangladesh som till slut lämnar subkontinenten och från södra Bangladesh blåser ut över Bengaliska Viken. Vi föreslår ett samarbetsprogram med skickliga aerosolforskare i Bangladesh. Tillsammans kan vi vidareutveckla våra framgångsrika pilotkampanjer som demonstrerat kapaciteten i mikroskala kol-14 dateringar av aerosoler för att kvantitativt bestämma de relativa bidragen av sot/BC partiklar i det Bruna Molnet mellan biomassa/biobränsle (kol-14 levande) och fossila bränslen (kol-14 utdött). Detta svensk-bangladeshiska forskningssamarbete skulle leverera information om källorna till BC/sotpartiklar i ett stort och viktigt område/land, ett efterfrågat beslutsstöd för minskningsåtgärder, och samtidigt ge grundläggande vetenskaplig information av avsevärd betydelse för förbättrad förståelse av hur BC/sot från olika källor påverkar klimatet. De stora luftprover som behövs för kol-14 analyserna skulle filtreras under 24-månaderskampanjer på två atmosfärsstationer som framgångsrikt etablerats under ledning av våra bangladeshiska kollegor: en urban station i megacity Dhaka och det andra det nybyggda atmosfärsobservatoriet på Bhola Island, strategiskt beläget i ett glest befolkat område vid utflödet från södra Asien. De bangladeshiska luftföroreningarna kommer alltså undersökas med ny teknik som utvecklats i Sverige och nu finner en viktig tillämpning i Bangladesh kring S Asiens Bruna Moln. Kvantitativ källbestämning av BC/sotpartiklar kommer publiceras i vetenskapliga tidskrifter med hög genomslagsfaktor. Den centrala informationen om den relativa vikten av fossila vs biomassakällor är ett direkt beslutsstöd som kommer kommuniceras till beslutsfattare för att underlätta prioriteringarna av olika insatser för att minska utsläppen av de hälso- och klimatpåverkande luftföroreningarna.

Our central server receives the virtual slides and allows the biological samples to be remotely analyzed by automated computer vision or visually assessed by a human observer. A proof-of-concept study supported by the Swedish Research Council has been conducted in 2014-2015 and shown the method to be feasible. We now plan to implement the novel multipurpose diagnostic platform in two settings in Tanzania: 1) As a diagnostic method for detection of malaria in blood samples obtained from patients presenting with fever at the primary health care level and 2) as a diagnostic and monitoring method for detection of soil-transmitted helminthes and schistosomiasis in stool and urine obtained from schoolchildren within a transmission surveillance survey. Captured digital images of the specimens are transferred to the central server to detect malaria parasites in blood smears, and helminth eggs in stool and urine, and to return the results to the technician in the field. The point-of-care study will be carried out in the Bagamoyo District and the transmission surveillance study in the Masasi/Muheza District in Tanzania in collaboration with Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS). The study will include a comparison with conventional microscopy with regard to diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value), an evaluation of usability, interpretability and assessment of time to achieve diagnosis. The project advances the field by bringing a powerful, multiplexed diagnostic tool from the laboratory to the point-of-care. The instruments are constructed out of components of mobile phones, make use of the expanding mobile networks and allow remote image processing in a highly scalable cloud computing environment. Previous mobile microscopy projects have been limited with regard to the sample area that can be captured, whereas the technology to be tested in the current project can digitally scan an entire microscopy slide. The method will aid in the combat of infectious diseases at the point-of-care level of health care and has the potential to improve access to diagnostics, enable task-shifting and shorten the time to diagnosis.

The fundamental problem is that there is little systematic evidence in academia and in policy about “what works” and “why” in the external promotion of regional organizations in Africa. In answering this general question the research project focuses on the following three subsidiary research questions: 1. What explains the implementation gap in African regional organizations, and what are the implications for external support? 2. What explains the great variation in the donor community of regional funding strategies and aid delivery channels? 3. Under what conditions do different regional funding strategies and aid delivery channels impact favourably on development and poverty reduction? The project combines a comparative case study focus on three policy fields (regional economic integration, infrastructure, and transboundary water management) with a comparative focus on three multilateral donors and three bilateral donors in each policy field. The final selection of regional organizations and donors for the comparative case studies will be determined after the first-step quantitative analyses. As a whole, the project combines qualitative and quantitative methods and sources of information in creative ways. Field work will be conducted in regional organizations; donor HQs and field offices in Africa. Många biståndsgivare har investerat enorma resurser i att bygga upp statsledda regional organisationer i Afrika, såsom AU, SADC, ECOWAS, EAC, IGAD, COMESA. Det stora problemet är att det saknas robusta vetenskapliga belägg för ‘vad som fungerar’ och ‘varför’ vad gäller externt stöd och bistånd till regionala organisationer i Afrika. Inom ramen för en jämförande fallstudiedesign syftar detta projekt till att förklara hur givarnas olika finansieringskanaler påverkar implementering såväl som effekter för utveckling och fattigdomsbekämpning. Ett urval av multilaterala och bilaterala biståndsgivare kommer analyseras och jämföras i tre policyområden: regional ekonomisk integration, infrastruktur, och gränsöverskridande vattenhantering.

Många biståndsgivare har investerat enorma resurser i att bygga upp statsledda regional organisationer i Afrika, såsom AU, SADC, ECOWAS, EAC, IGAD, COMESA. Det stora problemet är att det saknas robusta vetenskapliga belägg för ‘vad som fungerar’ och ‘varför’ vad gäller externt stöd och bistånd till regionala organisationer i Afrika. Inom ramen för en jämförande fallstudiedesign syftar detta projekt till att förklara hur givarnas olika finansieringskanaler påverkar implementering såväl som effekter för utveckling och fattigdomsbekämpning. Ett urval av multilaterala och bilaterala biståndsgivare kommer analyseras och jämföras i tre policyområden: regional ekonomisk integration, infrastruktur, och gränsöverskridande vattenhantering. Projektet kombinerar kvalitativa och kvantitativa metoder, och fältarbete kommer utföras både inom biståndsorganisationer och afrikanska regionala organisationer.

It does so by tackling a question identified by the recent IPCC report as a crucial question, what produces conflict and violence in the face of environmental change? The proposed research therefore begins from the insight that environmental governance policies and programs are often a platform on which actors struggle over discourses, authority and responsibilities. More scientific scrutiny is required into how such struggles within policies and programs can erupt as flash points for conflict and violence, or alternatively, can open up pathways towards peace and reduced vulnerability. Drawing from the social sciences the program explores how climate change is linked to perceptions of and responses to those changes. The work focuses on changes in forest and water resources in 2 countries: Nepal and Kenya. The objectives are: 1. To better conceptualise the social-political processes through which changing forest and water resources become enrolled in crises of legitimacy, conflict and violence. To produce empirical evidence of how global environmental change manifests social-politically within two carefully selected countries on two continents: Asia (Nepal) and Africa (Kenya). 3. To generate insights into how governance mechanisms can be better designed to address environmental conflict and violence concerns in least developed countries. The outcome will be a concrete evaluation of how conflict and environmental change together create new vulnerabilities and points of empowerment for people and polities. Konflikter och våld förorsakade av klimatförändringar har sina rötter i sociala och politiska processer som endast är indirekt relaterade till miljöförändring. Framför allt finns det ett akut behov av mer forskning om hur resursstyrning – utformad för att minska det globala samhällets sårbarhet för miljöförändringar – själv är en potentiell krutdurk för politisk instabilitet och våld. Syftet med detta fyraåriga forskningsprogram är att öka kunskapen om hur klimatförändringar orsakar legitimitetskriser, konflikt och våld i styrningen av skogs- och vattenresurser. Arbetet bidrar således till att försäkra att nuvarande riktlinjer och program för att möta klimatförändringar inte förvärrar konflikter och sårbarhet. Kärnfrågan som ställs är, vad förorsakar konflikt och våld i ljuset av miljöförändringar? Forskningsprogrammet motiveras av en djup oro över den snabba förändring som vi bevittnar i dag. Programmet syftar till att undersöka hur komplexa sociala processer är sammanlänkade med miljöförändringar, och till att förstå hur vi kan utveckla politiska mekanismer för att hantera dem. För att uppnå detta undersöks hur miljöförändringar kan orsaka legitimitetskriser i styrprogram som ämnar motverka sårbarhet och klimatförändringar. Hur klimatförändringar förstås globalt formar våra åtgärder och beteenden gentemot dessa avsevärt. Forskningsresultaten kommer att generera nya insikter i hur konsekvenserna av miljöförändring kan hanteras. Programmet har tre huvudsakliga mål: 1.) Att förstå hur sociala och politiska processer relaterade till förändrade skogs- och vattenresurser blir invecklade i konflikter och våld. 2.) Att producera konkreta underlag för hur global miljöförändring förstås inom ”bräckliga” styrelseformer på två kontinenter: Asien (Nepal) och Afrika (Kenya). 3.) Att generera insikter i hur styrmekanismer och utvecklingsprogram bättre kan utformas för att hantera oro för miljörelaterat våld globalt. Forskningen är utformad med utgångspunkt i samhällsvetenskapen för att undersöka hur miljöförändringar är invecklade i bräcklig statlig politik och vice versa. Resultatet kommer att bestå i en konkret utvärdering av hur konflikter och miljöförändringar tillsammans skapar nya sårbarheter och möjligheter för att stärka människor och politiska system. Rustad med denna förståelse kan programmet ge rekommendationer om hur styrmekanismer och program bättre kan bli medel för en positiv omvandling av globalt miljöbeteende.

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.

Trots det vet vi förhållandevis lite om dessa ekosystem. Till exempel är det mycket osäkert hur de kommer att påverkas av den pågående globala uppvärmningen. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

We will particularly address the occurrence and removal of micro-pollutants in the wastewater, by use of two different removal methodologies; (i) barrier-enhanced small-scale decentralized wastewater treatment systems (so called DEWATS), and (ii) soil amendments applied on top of the soil or mixed with the top layer of soil. In both methodologies biochar produced from local crop residues will be used as adsorbent material to capture and immobilize pollutants present in the wastewater. This research is of high relevance to a large number of the world´s least developed countries suffering from water scarcity, particularly in Africa. As study objects in this project we have selected Tanzania and Morocco, which represents two African countries with high water stress, but with different geographical/topographical conditions. The main objective is to demonstrate the function of biochar produced from carbonization of low-cost and locally available crop residues as adsorbent material in an established water purification set-up, such as the DEWATS plant. We will also explore the potential for application directly on soil for on-site capture and immobilisation of pollutants in wastewater used for agricultural irrigation. Both approaches will demand a detailed characterization of the biochar adsorbent and an evaluation of their adsorption behavior. Finally, we will study optimization of the biochar adsorbents by use of additives (pottery sherds and charcoal ash). The goal in a longer perspective is to aid in providing a sustainable solution which promotes human health as well as environmental protection. The specific goals are to investigate: i) the removal efficiency of different biochars with regard to the most common pollutants; ii) how the material composition and material properties of the crop residues affect the adsorption capacity of the resulting biochar; iii) how the adsorption capacity may be improved by use of additives; and iv) how the choice of removal methodology affects the removal efficiency of the studied pollutants. The project will be conducted during a period of three years by researchers at Umeå University (Sweden) and United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP), and by local collaboration partners in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Rabat, Morocco. Detta forskningsprojekt kommer att studera förekomst och avskiljning av föroreningar i avloppsvatten för att möjliggöra användning av detta vatten i jordbruket i länder med vattenbrist. Vi kommer särskilt att titta på två olika avskiljningsmetoder; (i) småskaliga decentraliserade avloppsreningssystem (så kallade DEWATS), och (ii) jordförbättringsmedel som appliceras ovanpå jorden eller blandas med det översta lagret av jord. I båda dessa metoder kommer vi att använda biokol producerad från lokalt tillgängliga jordbruksrester som adsorbent för att fånga upp och immobilisera föroreningarna i avloppsvattnet. Denna forskning är viktig för att förebygga miljö- och hälsorelaterade risker i samband med användning av avloppsvatten för bevattning i länder med vattenbrist, särskilt för många av världens minst utvecklade länder. Som studieobjekt i detta projekt har vi valt Tanzania och Marocko, som båda har hög vattenstress men olika geografiska/topografiska förhållanden och typer av jordbruk. Det huvudsakliga syftet med detta projekt är att utvärdera funktionen av biokol som adsorberande material, dels i en DEWATS anläggning och dels om det appliceras direkt på jorden för att sedan adsorbera föroreningar i avloppsvatten som används för bevattning av jordbruksmarken. Båda metoderna kommer att kräva en detaljerad karakterisering av biokolsadsorbenten och en utvärdering av adsorbentens kapacitet. Slutligen kommer vi att studera optimering av biokolsadsorbenten genom att sätta till additiv till biokolet (krukskärvor och träkolsaska). Målet med projektet är i ett längre perspektiv att bidra till en hållbar lösning som främjar människors hälsa samt skyddar miljön. De specifika målen är att undersöka: • reningseffektiviteten hos olika biokol med avseende på de vanligaste föroreningarna i avloppsvatten (metaller och andra oorganiska föreningar, samt organiska föreningar) • hur materialsammansättning och materialegenskaper hos jordbruksresterna påverkar adsorptionskapaciteten hos det resulterande biokolet • hur biokolet kan förbättras genom tillsats av additiv, för att öka adsorptionskapaciteten • hur val av avskiljningsmetod påverkar reningseffektiviteten med avseende på de studerade föroreningarna. Människors hälsa är nära kopplat till miljö. I en rapport från United Nations Environment Programme, UNEP, konstaterar man att 28% av Afrikas sjukdomsbörda är ett resultat av miljöfaktorer, såsom förorenat vatten och luftföroreningar. Detta forskningsprojekt är av hög relevans för ett stort antal av världens minst utvecklade länder, eftersom det rör ett allvarligt hot mot människors hälsa och mot vår miljö: vattenbrist. Vattenbrist drabbar varje kontinent och nästan en femtedel av världens befolkning bor i områden med fysisk brist. 2,6 miljarder människor saknar tillgång till adekvata avlopp, och enligt United Nations Development Programme, UNDP, dör varje år cirka 1,8 miljoner barn till följd av sjukdomar orsakade av orent vatten och dålig sanitet. När det gäller vatten som används för bevattning av jordbruksmark så har det visats att föroreningar i detta vatten, exempelvis avloppsvatten, kan tas upp av grödorna, och på så vis överföras till människan. Projektet kommer också att beröra frågan om avskogning. I projektet kommer vi att endast använda oss av biokol som framställts av jordbruksrester istället för, som den dominerande kolframställningen idag i Tanzania och andra afrikanska länder, avverka skog för att få ved till kolproduktion. Avskogning påverkar enligt UNEP även spridningen av sjukdomar som exempelvis malaria, eftersom myggorna lättare förökar sig när solljus, temperatur, och ytvattentillgänglighet ökar.

This is well-recognized in global level science-policy fora such as the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) and the Convention on Biological Biodiversity (CBD). However, connecting knowledge systems and aggregating and scaling up knowledge in ways that are credible and legitimate and thus useful at multiple levels, remains a challenge. In response, we have developed the Multiple Evidence Base (MEB) approach that proposes that indigenous, local, and scientific knowledge systems are viewed as generating different manifestations of valid and useful knowledge to be jointly analyzed across knowledge systems. The overarching aim of the proposal is to further develop tools and theory for creating synergies across knowledge systems in an equal, transparent, and inclusive way, for the benefit of sustainable governance of ecosystems. In particular, we set out to develop and analyze the potential of a MEB approach to transform the way knowledge is generated and used, with focus on the challenge of mobilizing knowledge across scales and contexts. The specific objectives are to: 1) Create a platform for an intercultural and transdisciplinary ‘community of practice’ representing experts from diverse knowledge systems, for generation of policy relevant syntheses on tools, approaches and experiences for implementing a MEB process, and; 2) Empirically analyze process and outcomes for good governance of scaling up ILK within IPBES and the CBD. The project brings together an international research team, with ILK research experience from multiple disciplines and across the globe, including Africa, South-East Asia, Latin America, Australia, and Europe. It is unique in its capacity to build on an established networks on experts from local and indigenous knowledge systems, for intercultural and transdisciplinary learning and insights to be generated within the project. Thus, we are well set to co-produce research that will make significant contributions to ongoing policy processes where connecting across knowledge systems is of critical importance, as well as to the field of connecting ILK with science in particular and co-generation of knowledge for sustainability in general. Our work will inform biocultural approaches to conservation by presenting options for integrating diverse knowledge systems and tailoring environmental management interventions to the local social, cultural, and ecological context. Legitimate and credible tools for enhancing the recognition of ILK in ecosystem and biodiversity assessments can also lead to empowerment and improved rights for indigenous peoples and local communities. The projects will generate a set of synthesis and empirical papers to be published in scientific journal. Papers will also be summarized as policy briefs to be distributed and presented within IPBES and CBD. Vi står inför stora utmaningar i förvaltningen av världens biologiska mångfald och de ekosystemtjänster som utgör grunden för vår välfärd. Vi har inte råd att förlora kunskap och erfarenheter från en mångfald av kunskapssystem utanför forskarvärlden, om hur vi kan förstå och anpassa oss till förändringar. Lokalsamhällen och ursprungsbefolkningar världen över har genom tiderna kontinuerligt byggt rika erfarenheter och kunskaper om att bruka och förvalta dynamiska ekosystem. Vikten av att respektera och erkänna de lokala samhällenas och ursprungsbefolkningarnas kunskaper om biologisk mångfald och ekosystem uttrycks tydligt i internationella processer och konventioner som syftar till att stärka vår förmåga att skydda och förvalta världens biologiska mångfald, exempelvis den nyligen etablerade Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), och Konventionen om Biologisk Mångfald (CBD). Det är en stor och viktig utmaning att utveckla metoder för att kunskap från kunskapssystem, som sinsemellan kan vara mycket olika, ska kunna mötas på ett rättvist, transparent, och legitimt sätt. Om vi lyckas kan vi skapa synergier där kunskapssystemen möts, och kan därmed berika vår förståelse av ekosystemen, och vidare generera ny kunskap om hur vi på bästa sätt nyttjar och bevarar vår biologiska mångfald i en tid där stora klimatförändringar och ökad press på våra naturresurser nödvändiggör anpassning till nya förhållanden. Fattiga människor på landsbygden i utvecklingsländer är ofta direkt beroende av biologisk mångfald för sitt dagliga livsuppehälle. De drabbas därför ofta hårdast då miljön utarmas. I många områden i utvecklingsländer saknas också vetenskaplig kunskap om de lokala ekosystemen och den biologiska mångfalden. Detta innebär att kunskaper från lokala samhällen är särskilt betydelsefull att kunna ta tillvara där. Det kan bidra till bättre beslutsunderlag och policys som ger förutsättningar för hållbar utveckling på såväl lokal som nationell nivå. Detta gör metoder för att ta tillvara denna kunskap extra viktig i ett utvecklingsperspektiv. Vi har därför etablerat en samverkansprocess med experter från en mångfald av lokala, urfolks- samt natur- och samhällsvetenskapliga kunskapssystem och utvecklat en Multiple Evidence Base (MEB). Inom en MEB uttrycks kunskaper från varje kunskapssystem parallellt, utan att ett systems kunskap (t ex lokal kunskap) värderas av ett annat (t ex genom vetenskapliga tester). På så vis kan komplementära insikter, överlapp och motsägelser mellan kunskapssystem diskuteras och utvärderas i en gemensam process. MEB som angreppssätt har rönt mycket uppmärksamhet och intresse både inom policysfären t.ex. IPBES och CBD, och inom forskningsvärlden, som en användbar metod. Vi föreslår nu ett forskningsprojekt som syftar till att vidareutveckla metoder och teorier för att skapa synergier där kunskapssystem möts på ett rättvist, transparent, och inkluderande sätt, till förmån för hållbar förvaltning och nyttjade av biologisk mångfald och ekosystem. Forskningsprojektet ska bidra till följande syften: 1) Skapa en plattform för en interkulturell och transdiciplinär praktiker-gemenskap av experter från olika kunskapssystem, för dialoger och utveckling av verktyg för policy, och för utbyte av erfarenheter som är relevanta för genomförande av en MEB process, samt 2) empiriskt analysera process och resultat av att ta tillvara urbefolkningars och lokala samhällens kunskaper i IPBES utvärderingar och i CBD processer för att utvärdera CBD Strategiska Plan 2011 – 2020, med Aichi 2020 målen. För att göra detta på ett rättvist, transparent och legitimt sätt kommer vi jobba i ett nära samarbete med experter inom olika kunskapssystem, genom organisationer som representerar lokala samhällen och urfolkssamhällen, forskare med natur- och samhällsvetenskaplig bakgrund samt med bred erfarenhet av tvärvetenskap, samt även representanter från andra aktörer inom IPBES och CBD.

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.

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.

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.

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. Firstly, what are the new constellations of actors and interests driving the contemporary transformation of central city areas in specific cities? Secondly, what disciplinary technologies are being deployed to control actors and activities perceived as ‘illegitimate’ in central city areas and what conflicts emerge? Thirdly, how do people depending on the street for survival experience and respond to the re-making of central city areas? The 4-year project will include the following activities. Each of the three researchers will conduct a total of 6 months of fieldwork during years 1-4; project seminars in year 1; fieldwork analysis and writing of 6-8 peer reviewed articles and at least two popular scientific/policy orientated publications; presentations at 6 international conference, and, in year 4, a joint conference with collaborating partners from the three case study cities. The project will significantly add to current understandings of the mechanisms that act on informal processes of urbanization and also contribute to a regenerated theoretical consideration of the search for the ‘Just City’ in the African context. The project will also increase planning and policy-relevant understanding of the mechanisms and processes acting in the urban planning / governance / informality / nexus.

Detta skapar nya ambitioner och omvandla städerna, deras ekonomier, politik och centrala stadsrum. Men den informella sektorn i städerna fortsätter samtidigt att växa och är ett allt större inslag i den Afrikanska stadsbilden. Den tydligaste tillväxten av den informella sektorn sker i städer i globala syd där marginaliserade grupper, exempelvis kvinnor och ungdomar söker sig till de offentliga rummen i centrala stadsdelar för att försörja sig, ofta genom att sälja varor på gatan. Genom att ta upp plats i det offentliga rummet och utföra aktiviteter som av planerare och statsmakter inte alls var tänkta att äga rum på dessa platser, omskapar dessa marginaliserade grupper staden underifrån. Samtidigt sker dock försök av statsmakter och andra mäktiga intressen att återta kontrollen och styrningen av städernas offentliga rum, såsom gatan. Den snabba ekonomiska tillväxten i flera Afrikanska städer skapar ny-modernistiska stadsvisioner och stadens centrala delar blir föremål för både investeringar och interventioner som söker få bort aktiviteter som inte passar i dessa visioner. Sådana interventioner kan få långtgående konsekvenser för de människor som är beroende av gatan för sin överlevnad. Det kan exempelvis handla om att vräka gatuförsäljare från gatan eller att omlokalisera dem till andra platser i eller utanför staden. Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är att undersöka hur olika grupper av gatuförsäljares tillgång till det offentliga rummet påverkas av omvandlingen som pågår i centrala stadsdelar. Ett delsyfte är även att se hur de olika grupper som försörjer sig på gatan reagerar och handlar när deras försörjningsmöjligheter blir hotade. Projektet kommer att utföras i tre afrikanska städer: Lagos i Nigeria, Kampala i Uganda och Maputo i Mocambique. Dessa städer genomgår till stor del samma processer men de illustrerar även hur olika resultat kan uppstå från samma processer, utifrån de specifika platsernas historia, kultur och maktstrukturer etc. En viktig fältmetod blir att intervjua individer bland gatuförsäljare av olika kategorier såsom ungdomar, kvinnor samt försäljare av olika typer av varor, liksom representanter för deras sammanslutningar och organisationer. Observationer av hur gatuförsäljare utnyttjar det offentliga rummet och hur konflikter kring användandet uppstår kommer också att utgöra en viktig metod. Stadsplanerare och representanter för inblandade statliga myndigheter och politiker kommer att intervjuas kring deras syn på staden och på gatuekonomier och hur denna har förändrats över tid. Vid sidan av intervjuer och observationer kommer granskning av stadsplaner, protokoll från möten på kommunal nivå och liknande bidra med information om hur gatuekonomier och gatuförsäljare diskuteras samt vilka åtgärder som föreslås kring dessa aktiviteter. Det här forskningsprojektets samhälleliga relevans ligger i att den pågående omvandlingen av centrala stadsdelar verkar medföra ytterligare marginalisering av redan utsatta grupper av människor som är beroende av gatan för sin överlevnad. Genom att undersöka konsekvenserna av omvandlingen av centrala stadsdelar för olika grupper hoppas projektet kunna bidra till att policy och visioner som skapar socialt integrerade och hållbara städer kan utvecklas.

Dessa städer genomgår till stor del samma processer men de illustrerar även hur olika resultat kan uppstå från samma processer, utifrån de specifika platsernas historia, kultur och maktstrukturer etc. En viktig fältmetod blir att intervjua individer bland gatuförsäljare av olika kategorier såsom ungdomar, kvinnor samt försäljare av olika typer av varor, liksom representanter för deras sammanslutningar och organisationer. Observationer av hur gatuförsäljare utnyttjar det offentliga rummet och hur konflikter kring användandet uppstår kommer också att utgöra en viktig metod. Stadsplanerare och representanter för inblandade statliga myndigheter och politiker kommer att intervjuas kring deras syn på staden och på gatuekonomier och hur denna har förändrats över tid. Vid sidan av intervjuer och observationer kommer granskning av stadsplaner, protokoll från möten på kommunal nivå och liknande bidra med information om hur gatuekonomier och gatuförsäljare diskuteras samt vilka åtgärder som föreslås kring dessa aktiviteter. Det här forskningsprojektets samhälleliga relevans ligger i att den pågående omvandlingen av centrala stadsdelar verkar medföra ytterligare marginalisering av redan utsatta grupper av människor som är beroende av gatan för sin överlevnad. Genom att undersöka konsekvenserna av omvandlingen av centrala stadsdelar för olika grupper hoppas projektet kunna bidra till att policy och visioner som skapar socialt integrerade och hållbara städer kan utvecklas.

In this project we explore through which processes the institutions, activities and public policy discourses surrounding the AU’s African Peace and Security Architecture (APSA) are becoming militarized. Building on the definition by Michael Geyer (1989), Catherine Lutz (2002), and others, we conceive of militarization as encompassing a tense social process whereby societies prepare for war through a range of discursive and material processes. More precisely this project locates the processes and practices that help us explain the trend towards militarization within the APSA. It builds an explanatory social theory around these to help us answer the research question, why is there an increasing militarization of the African Union’s institutional practice? We depart from and help develop security regime complex theory, the securitization framework, as well as security practice theory. While militarization is neither absolute nor complete, in different issue areas of the AU peace and security framework the picture is uneven and more nuanced, we argue that, to date, the institutional processes and public policy discourses of the AU diverge from the inherent normative vision of APSA. This vision holds that the AU should provide integrated responses to multidimensional security challenges and rely on African traditional conflict resolution principles. The literature on African peace and security is currently under-theorized. There are only a handful of rigorous and systematic studies on APSA despite the emerging role of the AU in global governance. This research project therefore fills an important gap both in terms of intellectual scrutiny and for the purpose of policy and practice. We employ qualitative and process-tracing methodologies. In conclusion, peace promotion in Africa is currently undergoing a tense renegotiation of ideas and practices of a distinctly transnational nature. There is a shared global interest in supporting knowledge about these developments. However to carefully scrutinize the implications of militarization for peace promotion on the continent, we need good explanatory theory. Without a shared ‘grammar’ the field suffers from a lack of healthy dialogue, preferably also between paradigms, about institutional practices and their effects. While ending wars in Africa is vital, to conflict-affected African civilians as well as to global security, the militarization of means and responses is unlikely to bring stable post-war orders and longer-term durable peace. Trots Afrikanska unionens (AU) nyligen uttalade vision om att tysta kontinentens vapen innan 2020, har flera forskare uppmärksammat AU:s allt tilltagande militarisering i samband med hanteringen av kontinentala hot. I det aktuella projektet granskar vi de militariseringsprocesser som den Afrikanska Freds- och Säkerhetsarkitekturen (APSA) genomgår avseende dess institutioner och aktiviteter. Projektet omfattar dels en studie av AU:s institutioner, inklusive de regionala sammanslutningarna (REC), men även dess offentliga politiska diskurs kring säkerhet. Projektet tar sin utgångspunkt i begreppet militarisering, en process som enligt Geyer (1989) och Lutz (2002), med flera, omfattar den rad diskursiva och materiella processer genom vilka samhällen och institutioner förbereder sig för krig. Mer specifikt syftar detta projekt till att urskilja de processer som kan förklara AU:s ökade grad av militarisering. Vår forskningsfråga är: varför militariseras AU:s institutionella praxis och diskurs? Frågeställningen besvaras genom ett teoriutvecklande förhållningssätt. Militarisering av AU är naturligtvis inte absolut. Trenden är ojämn och diskussionen kring denna utveckling är brokig och oklar. Men som en nyligen genomförd forskning visar tycks AU:s alltmer militariserade utveckling utgöra en allt tydligare brytning mot den normativa grunden av pacifism och traditionella afrikanska konfliktlösningsprinciper som länge väglett organisationen. Vi kan konstatera att det finns allt tydligare tecken på att de institutioner, aktiviteter och diskurser vi nu ser är på frammarsch allt tydligare avviker från den kontinentala vision som präglat skapandet av APSA, d.v.s. strävan att AU skall kunna hantera flerdimensionella säkerhetsutmaningar. Vi behöver således ett bättre teoretiskt förhållningssätt för att förklara varför dessa processer sker samt vilka implikationerna kan bli. Utan en gemensam analytisk ”grammatik” avseende institutionell militarisering, kommer forskningsfältet att också fortsatt lida brist på en välmående teoretisk och metodmässig dialog. Vi behöver också denna kunskap för att kunna analysera militariseringens konsekvenser för AU:s fredsfrämjande roll på kontinenten. Projektet tar initialt ett kvalitativt induktivt förhållningssätt för att teoretisera APSA. Teoriutvecklingen kring AU samt dess REC:ar analyseras dels utifrån hur dessa praktiserar säkerhet när kontinentala utmaningar uppstår, dels utifrån en djupgående analys av den offentliga diskursen om vad säkerhetshot anses vara. Vid sidan av militariseringslitteraturen utgår forskningsprojektet från etablerade teoribildningar kring komplexa säkerhetsregimer (’complex security regime theory’), säkerhetisering (’securitization theory’), samt säkerhetsutövande (’security practice theory’). Forskningsprojektet bidrar således tydligt till fältet genom att utveckla och brygga teoretiska och empiriska studier. Den systematiska analysen av APSA och dess skifte mot en tilltagande militarisering kommer att ske genom olika metodologiska verktyg inklusive djupgående process analyser (process-tracing), intervjuer (individuella beslutsfattare och fokus-grupper), samt diskursanalys (av offentlig retorik och AU dokumentation inom fred och säkerhet). Litteraturen om afrikanska freds- och säkerhetsarkitekturen är idag påtagligt underteoretiserad. Det finns bara en handfull systematiska studier kring AU som global säkerhetsaktör och än färre specifikt om APSA:s grunder. Flera av dessa studier är – med vissa undantag- framförallt empiriska och deskriptiva i sin karaktär. Detta är överaskande givet den roll AU idag spelar på den internationella scenen. Forskningsprojektet fyller därför en viktig lucka vad gäller intellektuell granskning av AU som aktör. Forskningsområdet är dessutom av mycket stor relevans för policy och politisk praxis.

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. Människan har levt i städer i tusentals år, men aldrig förr har städernas befolkning vuxit med så många människor årligen. Det industrialiserade norra halvklotet genomgick sin stora urbanisering under de två förra århundradena. Idag sker den urbana tillväxten framförallt i det globala Syd och inom tjugo år kommer Afrikas befolkning att fördubblas. Framförallt växer städernas informella områden—så kallade slumområden—där ojämlikheten och fattigdomen redan är svår. Problemet är att vi försöker förstå utmaningarna i dagens Afrika med hjälp av kunskap från förra seklets Europa. I städerna bidrar en ökad tillgång till viktiga tjänster som vatten, renhållning och elektricitet till hälsa, bättre livskvalitet och god miljö. Men regeringar, kommuner, biståndsorganisationer och civilsamhälle har fört en ojämn kamp för att öka tillgången till dessa tjänster. Äldre idéer om hur städerna bör utvecklas dröjer kvar från den koloniala perioden, eller genom tekniköverföring i biståndsprojekt. Men dagens otillräckliga och ojämlika tillgång till nödvändiga tjänster visar tydligt att en utvecklingsmodell byggd på tekniköverföring från Nord—”copy-and-paste”—inte är framgångsrik. Det krävs studier som bättre kan förklara dagens situation och bidra till att identifiera de maktstrukturer och de tekniska, sociala och ekologiska faktorer som behöver förändras, samt ge röst till marginaliserade grupper. Bland urbanforskare i Afrika, och bland politiker och stadsplanerare, höjs röster för att etablera ett nytt och mer lokalt anpassat sätt att se på och tänka kring städer. För att möta de utmaningar som Afrika, den snabbast urbaniserande kontinenten, står inför behövs ingående förståelse av Afrikanska städer; deras formella och informella strukturer i ekonomin, kulturen och politiken; vanliga människors önskemål och konsumtionsmönster: allt som inte enkelt låter sig förklaras med modeller från den redan industrialiserade världen. Lite tillspetsat; tankar behöver tänkas om stadsutveckling som bottnar i dagens urbana Afrika och inte i den Europeiska 1800-talsstaden. Vår forskning bidrar till nya sätt att tänka kring Afrikas städer med sikte på en mer rättvis och hållbar stadsutveckling. Vi kommer genomföra två fallstudier: i huvudstaden Kampala (över en miljon invånare) samt i Mbale (ca 100 000 invånare). Uganda har ännu en relativt liten andel urban befolkning, men städerna växer snabbt och är nu över 5% per år. Fallstudierna fokuserar på två kritiska flöden som påverkar stadens tillväxt och dess invånare, nämligen avfallshantering och sanitetstjänster. Tillsammans har de avsevärda hälso- och miljöeffekter men trots det får de sällan stor uppmärksamhet i forskning och debatt. Vår forskning bedrivs av ett internationellt team i samarbete med Ugandiska forskare. Genom samröre med civilsamhället vill vi nå fördjupad och platsspecifik kunskap om dessa materiella flöden och de utmaningar, konflikter och möjligheter de är relaterade till. Arbetet delas upp i fem delprojekt: 1) Genom intervjuer och deltagande observationer analysera hur stadens invånare organiserat sig runt, och använder avfalls- och sanitetstjänster, speciellt de marginaliserade grupperna; 2) Genom statistik kartlägga de övergripande sociala och tekniska strukturerna som förser staden med sanitet och avfallshantering; 3) Genom historiska studier förklara hur dessa infrastrukturtjänster vuxit fram i de båda städerna; 4) I det fjärde delprojektet, som pågår parallellt med de andra, utveckla ett nytt teoretiskt ramverk för hur urbana infrastrukturtjänster kan studeras och analyseras i Afrika och Globala Syd; och 5) Sprida, diskutera och jämföra den platsspecifika kunskap som vi inhämtat med andra stadsforskare i Afrika, framförallt från Sydafrika och Ghana, för att bidra till en bredare diskussion om hur man kan förstå hållbar utveckling i Afrikanska städer.

Besides being a culturally valued beverage, it is the main source of income for millions of Ethiopian poor smallholder farmers. Ethiopia also contain the last remaining wild coffee populations and therefore is the unique genetic reservoir of this globally important plant. From a biodiversity conservation point of view the coffee production in Ethiopia is controversial. On one hand coffee production degrades the last montane forest ecosystems due to (partial) clearings of intact forests and it also threatens the wild coffee population by introgression of genes from improved varieties grown in the vicinity of natural forests. On the other hand coffee is frequently grown under shade and shade coffee systems are globally known to be beneficial land uses for combining production and generating ecosystem services including biodiversity conservation. In this project we shall tackle this dual role of coffee, with the ultimate goal of generating knowledge that could close yield gaps and improve livelihoods of poor farmers, while at the same time saving biodiversity and optimizing the utilization of natural ecosystem services. We will work in a study landscape in SW Ethiopia in which coffee is grown in different management systems and is the main income for thousands of farmers. High biodiversity values are also present in the landscape, including wild coffee populations. Farmers struggle against fungal diseases on coffee, which they consider as the worst pests. The project is divided into four work packages (WP) which are closely linked under the umbrella of coffee yield-biodiversity variation across the landscape: WP1 will focus on understanding the drivers of the variation in coffee management systems across the landscape. WP2 will identify thresholds in biodiversity-coffee yield relationships and WP3 will investigate plant-fungi interactions of major coffee pests along this gradient in relation to both yields, variation in yields as well as biodiversity. The final WP4 will synthesize findings from the other packages. We will use satellite imagery for mapping coffee systems across the landscape (WP1), standard methods such as point count, single rope technique, netting and bagging of flowers to quantify bird, plant and pollinator diversity and function in around 50 sites across a management gradient. Coffee yield will also be assessed in these sites over several years to get a measure of the variation (WP2).

Förutom att vara en uppskattad dryck som man är stolt över är kaffe det den viktigaste inkomsten för miljoner av fattiga småbrukare. I höglandsskogarna i västra Etiopien växer vilt kaffe som är en oerhört viktig genetisk reservoar eftersom den genetiska mångfalden är mycket högre här. Eftersom det är en av värdens största handelsprodukter kan man förstå att dessa genetiska reservoarer är globalt skyddsvärda. När det gäller bevarandet av biodiversiteten i Etiopien är kaffeproduktionen kontroversiell. Å ena sidan så påverkas skogarna negativt av att människor glesar ut den och odlar kaffe under träden. Dessutom hotas de vilda kaffepopulationerna av att gener från odlade former sprider sig in i skogen och blandar sig med det vilda kaffet och på sikt hotar den genetiska mångfalden. Å andra sidan 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. I detta projekt skall vi undersöka denna dubbla roll som kaffe har, med slutmålet att få fram kunskap som kan öka småbrukares inkomster samtidigt som biodiversiteten bevaras och det blir ett uthålligt användande av ekosystemtjänster. Vi tror att kaffet spelar en nyckelroll i alla dessa frågor. Vi kommer jobba i ett landskap i sydvästra Etiopien där kaffeodling utgör en mycket viktig del av böndernas inkomster, men som också är känt för sin rika biodiveristet i skogarna. Det största problemet som bönderna har när det gäller kaffeodlingen är två olika svampsjukdomar som angriper bären eller hela busken. Projektet är uppdelat i fyra delprojekt som är tydligt ihoplänkade på temat kaffeproduktivitet-biodiversitet. Det första delprojektet fokuserar på att förstå variationen i kaffe odlingssystem över landskapet – var det finns intakt skog, var det finns planteringar eller var man mest skördar vilt kaffe. Det andra projektet kommer identifiera icke-linjära samband och tröskelvärden mellan biodiversitet och kaffeskördar. Man kan t.ex. undersöka om det finns något tröskelvärde för hur mycket man kan öka kaffeskörnarna utan att antalet fågelarter börjar minska och liknande frågeställningar. I det tredje delprojektet kommer vi undersöka variationen i angrepp av olika svampsjukdomar i relation till hur intensivt kaffet brukas, men också i relation till den genetiska variationen av kaffe på de olika platserna. Det fjärde delprojektet är en syntes av resultaten från de tre andra delprojekten. Vi kommer använda oss av satellitbilder för att kartlägga olika kaffeodlingssystem i landskapet. För att mäta artrikedom av fåglar, växter och bin kommer vi använda oss av standardmetoder såsom punkttaxering, klättring med enkelrep, håvning mm på ca 50 platser med olika brukningsintensitet. Kaffeskörden kommer att mätas på alla dessa platser under flera år för att förstå variationen i skördens storlek. Vi kommer studera variationen i angrepp av svampsjukdomarna i fält på samma platser, men också samla in blad för att göra genetiska analyser. Prof. Kristoffer Hylander, Stockholms Universitet, som har en sedan tidigare gedigen erfarenhet av landskapsekologiska studier i Etiopien, kommer leda projektet tillsammans med Prof. Sileshi på Addis Ababa universitet som är en växtexpert. Dr. Ayco Tack på Stockholms universitet, som tidigare arbetat mycket med dynamiken mellan växter och svampsjukdomar, kommer vara aktiv i det delprojeket som handlar om svampsjukdomars hot mot kaffe.

Besides being a culturally valued beverage, it is the main source of income for millions of Ethiopian poor smallholder farmers. Ethiopia also contain the last remaining wild coffee populations and therefore is the unique genetic reservoir of this globally important plant. From a biodiversity conservation point of view the coffee production in Ethiopia is controversial. On one hand coffee production degrades the last montane forest ecosystems due to (partial) clearings of intact forests and it also threatens the wild coffee population by introgression of genes from improved varieties grown in the vicinity of natural forests. On the other hand coffee is frequently grown under shade and shade coffee systems are globally known to be beneficial land uses for combining production and generating ecosystem services including biodiversity conservation. In this project we shall tackle this dual role of coffee, with the ultimate goal of generating knowledge that could close yield gaps and improve livelihoods of poor farmers, while at the same time saving biodiversity and optimizing the utilization of natural ecosystem services. We will work in a study landscape in SW Ethiopia in which coffee is grown in different management systems and is the main income for thousands of farmers. High biodiversity values are also present in the landscape, including wild coffee populations. Farmers struggle against fungal diseases on coffee, which they consider as the worst pests. The project is divided into four work packages (WP) which are closely linked under the umbrella of coffee yield-biodiversity variation across the landscape: WP1 will focus on understanding the drivers of the variation in coffee management systems across the landscape. WP2 will identify thresholds in biodiversity-coffee yield relationships and WP3 will investigate plant-fungi interactions of major coffee pests along this gradient in relation to both yields, variation in yields as well as biodiversity. The final WP4 will synthesize findings from the other packages. We will use satellite imagery for mapping coffee systems across the landscape (WP1), standard methods such as point count, single rope technique, netting and bagging of flowers to quantify bird, plant and pollinator diversity and function in around 50 sites across a management gradient. Coffee yield will also be assessed in these sites over several years to get a measure of the variation (WP2). In WP3 we will combine field based surveys of disease progression and genetic analyses of coffee genotypes to understand the drivers of spatial and temporal disease dynamics (epidemiology). Here we will also use the same sites as in WP2 and link it to yield dynamics and biodiversity.

Avgörande för den liberala fredsmodellen är frågan om säkerhet och utveckling och det antas till och med, åtminstone på en teoretisk nivå, att man inte kan nå säkerhet utan utveckling och vise versa. Kopplingen mellan säkerhet och utveckling är dock ifrågasatt och vissa menar att det fokus som det internationella samfundet, biståndsgivare och utvecklingsaktörer nu har på säkerhet och utveckling maskerar de underliggande liberala värderingarna man gärna vill tona ner. Ambitionen för detta forskningsprojekt är att försöka förstå, och bidra med ny kunskap om, hur fokus på kopplingen mellan säkerhet och utveckling i fredsbyggande växt fram i hierarkin av biståndsgivare och utvecklingsaktörer, samt hur arbetet med säkerhet och utveckling materialiserats på lokal nivån där dessa idéer omfamnats, anpassats till lokala kontexter och/eller mött motstånd. Projektet bygger på studier i Demokratiska republiken Kongo, Somalia, Colombia och Kambodja vilka är länder där man specifikt, och i stor utsträckning, arbetat just med frågor om säkerhet och utveckling och kopplingen mellan dem. I dessa länder har det internationella fredsbyggandet till delar varit framgångsrikt men man har också upplevt bakslag där våldet åter fått fäste. Genom detta projekt kan nya insikter på hur kopplingen mellan säkerhet och utveckling i fredsbyggande skapas, vilka i sin tur är relevanta för både forskningsområdet och för policyaktörer inom fred, säkerhet och utveckling.

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.

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.

While the mothers nutritional status both before and during pregnancy is associated with fetal growth, underlying mechanisms are still not completely understood. The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system and its components has been studied in pregnancy and suggested as potential mediators between the associations between maternal nutritional status and growth of the fetus. While several studies have found maternal IGF-1 concentrations to be associated with size at birth, other studies find no such associations. There is also little knowledge on associations between maternal IGF-system and later infant growth. This population-based study will be implemented in a rural setting in Bangladesh where poor maternal nutritional status is common. We aim to investigate maternal nutritional status and the IGF-system in relation to fetal growth, infant size at birth, body composition and infant growth. We will use different indicators of maternal nutritional status (body weight, length and body composition). Fetal growth will be measured by ultrasound and infant body composition by skinfolds. Our proposed study may give more insight into these complex relationsships and increase our understanding of fetal growth regulation. This will help designing appropriate nutrition interventions by identifying who benefits most, and when interventions would be most successful. Hur påverkas barnets tillväxt under foster- och spädbarnstiden av mammans nutritionsstatus och tillväxtfaktorer under graviditeten? Att födas med låg födelsevikt, en följd av svag fostertillväxt, kan leda till ökad spädbarnsdödlighet och sjuklighet samt på lång sikt även en ökad risk att utveckla metabola sjukdomar. Vi vet sedan tidigare att mammans nutritionsstatus, både före och under graviditeten, är kopplat till fostrets tillväxt. Däremot är det inte helt utrett vilka biologiska mekanismerna som ligger till grund för dessa samband. Insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF-1) är en så kallad tillväxtfaktor som är lik insulin både i struktur och funktion. IGF-1 spelar en viktig roll i tillväxt och är extra viktig under fostertiden och barndomen. IGF-1 har tillsammans med faktorer som påverkar dess funktion studerats under graviditeten, och IGF-1 har föreslagits vara en möjlig bakomliggande orsak till de samband man sett mellan mammans nutritionsstatus under graviditeten och fostertillväxt. Detta är dock inte helt klarlagt och kunskap saknas även om hur mammans IGF-1 tillsammans med nutritionsstatus påverkar tillväxten efter födseln. Vi planerar att genomföra en studie på landsbygden i Bangladesh där en stor andel barn föds med låg födelsevikt och majoriteten av kvinnorna har lågt BMI. Vi kommer att studera mammans nutritionsstatus och nivåer av IGF-1 i förhållande till fostrets tillväxt, födelsevikt och kroppssammansättning samt även studera barnets tillväxt. Vi kommer att använda oss av flera olika markörer för mammans nutritionsstatus (kroppsvikt , längd och kroppssammansättning) . Fostrets tillväxt kommer att mätas med hjälp av ultraljud. Vid födseln kommer barnet att vägas och mätas och dess kroppssammansättning uppskattas. Detta kommer att upprepas tre gånger under barnets första levnadsår för att kunna studera spädbarnets tillväxt. De flesta tidigare studier där man tittat på dessa samband har genomförts i grupper där mamman har ett relativt högt BMI. De flesta studier har heller inte uppföljning av mamman och hennes barn efter födseln så att mer långsiktiga samband kan studeras. Genom denna studie hoppas vi kunna få ökad kunskap om hur fostertillväxt och tillväxt hos spädbarnet regleras och vilka faktorer som är inblandade i detta.

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.

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.

Plastic debris and microplastics are one of the main environmental issues globally, but the situation in the Indian Ocean is poorly studied. Plastic debris may cause physical harm to ecosystems causing smothering or starvation of large animals when air or alimentary tracts are blocked. Microplastics may carry chemical contaminants, e.g., persistent organic pollutants (DDT, PCB etc), phthalates, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, that enter the food chain with ingested particles. This project is a collaborative effort between Sweden and Bangladesh, with additional input from India and South Africa. We will count and collect different types of plastics in the Sundarbans of Bangladesh and India and in coral reefs. In Bangladesh we will also collect sediment and biota. The samples will be characterized physically and chemically, to elucidate the sources of the plastics. Sorbed chemical contaminants and contaminant uptake in the food chain will be determined. The project will give valuable information useful for the protection of environmental resources that are economically important for the coastal population.

Plast i havet har under senare år uppmärksammats som ett gigantiskt och växande miljöproblem. Det är uppenbart för alla som gått på en strand att det ligger mycket plastskräp oavsett hur avlägsen stranden är från större befolkningscentra. Denna typ av plastskräp utgör ett hot mot sköldpaddor, däggdjur och fåglar som misstar plast för mat och kan få såväl matsmältningskanalen som luftvägarna igensatta och dö av svält eller kvävning. Fiskenät och -linor utgör ett annat hot i vilka djuren kan fastna. Problemet kompliceras av att stora plastobjekt kan brytas ned till mikroskopiska partiklar som svävar runt i haven. Mikroskopiska plastpartiklar finns numera också i många kosmetik och hygienprodukter, och en stor del av dessa letar sig ut i havet. Dessutom transporteras på fartyg plastpellets som råmaterial från plasttillverkare till tillverkare av färdiga plastvaror. Små plastpelletar och mikroskopiska plastpartiklar, s.k. mikroplast, kan även de uppfattas som föda och ätas av fiskar och djurplankton. Förutom att detta kan leda till blockerade matsmältningskanaler kan det också finnas miljögifter i eller på plasten, miljögifter som på detta sätt kommer in i näringskedjan. Eftersom plast för det mesta flyter, och bryts ned mycket långsamt ansamlas det på vissa ställen i världshaven. I sådana områden kan det finnas fler plastpartiklar än djurplankton vilket ställer till stora problem i näringsväven. Sådana områden är beskrivna i såväl Stilla Havet som Atlanten, medan Indiska Oceanen är mindre väl undersökt. I detta projekt ska vi undersöka en potentiell ”hot spot” för utflöde av plast i Indiska Oceanen. I det inre av Bengaliska viken mynnar flera stora floder som avvattnar stora tätbefolkade områden, med drygt 400 miljoner invånare enbart i Gangesslätten. Bangladesh är till stor del beläget i det delta i vilket både Ganges och Brahmaputra rinner ut i Indiska Oceanen. I deltat finns också världens största mangroveskog, Sundarban, ett av FN:s världsarv i vilken många känsliga arter finns kvar som annars fått sitt livsrum kraftigt begränsat på Indiska Subkontinenten, bl.a. bengalisk tiger. I Sundarban lever också många människor som är beroende av Sundarbans naturresurser för sin överlevnad. Längre västerut i Bangladesh finns känsliga korallrev som och en fiskeindustri som är viktig för att försörja en stor del av Bangladesh med fisk. Dessa områden kan påverkas av plastföroreningar dels ilandflutet från havet, och dels transporterat ut via floderna från de tätbefolkade delarna av Gangesslätten med en växande industri som ofta inte tar mycket miljöhänsyn. Vi kommer att räkna plastskräp på stränder både i Sundarban och längs med korallreven. Vi kommer också att med olika tekniker ta prover på mikroplast i sand, sediment, vatten och olika organismer (koraller, fisk etc.). Genom att specifikt titta på vilken typ av plast som dominerar olika storleksfraktioner av plastpartiklar ska vi bilda oss en uppfattning om varifrån de olika typerna av plast kommer. Vidare kommer vi att bestämma halterna av olika miljögifter, dels klassiska miljögifter som DDT och PCB, men också specifika ”plastkemikalier” som ftalater proverna. Genom detta kan vi få en uppfattning om hur olika miljögifter kan tas upp från plastpartiklarna i fisk och skaldjur. Projektet kommer att leda till ny kunskap om hur plast beter sig i ett stort delta. Därmed kan vi bidra till nödvändiga miljöbeslut och en bättre förvaltning av en unik naturmiljö. Vi kommer också att få ny kunskap om hur korallrev påverkas av plastpartiklar och hur miljögifter kan ta sig in i näringskedjan och så småningom nå människan.

Dessa områden kan påverkas av plastföroreningar dels ilandflutet från havet, och dels transporterat ut via floderna från de tätbefolkade delarna av Gangesslätten med en växande industri som ofta inte tar mycket miljöhänsyn. Vi kommer att räkna plastskräp på stränder både i Sundarban och längs med korallreven. Vi kommer också att med olika tekniker ta prover på mikroplast i sand, sediment, vatten och olika organismer (koraller, fisk etc.). Genom att specifikt titta på vilken typ av plast som dominerar olika storleksfraktioner av plastpartiklar ska vi bilda oss en uppfattning om varifrån de olika typerna av plast kommer. Vidare kommer vi att bestämma halterna av olika miljögifter, dels klassiska miljögifter som DDT och PCB, men också specifika ”plastkemikalier” som ftalater proverna. Genom detta kan vi få en uppfattning om hur olika miljögifter kan tas upp från plastpartiklarna i fisk och skaldjur. Projektet kommer att leda till ny kunskap om hur plast beter sig i ett stort delta. Därmed kan vi bidra till nödvändiga miljöbeslut och en bättre förvaltning av en unik naturmiljö. Vi kommer också att få ny kunskap om hur korallrev påverkas av plastpartiklar och hur miljögifter kan ta sig in i näringskedjan och så småningom nå människan.

For this purpose, some agricultural residues will be used as a source for isolation of cellulosic nanomaterials with different technologies available at the Swedish and Egyptian partners. Technologies available at the Swedish side include ultra-fine grinding, high pressure homogenization, and electro-spinning while the Egyptian side will use chemical/mechanical methods using high shear homogenizers. Different parameters will be studied to optimize the isolation of cellulosic nanomaterials regarding the yield and properties. The isolated nanomaterials will be y characterized using different tools including SEM, TEM, AFM, XRD, FTIR, surface charge, elemental analyses, and microbial resistance. The isolated nanomaterials will be assembled in form of ultrafiltration membranes with tailor made structure to study their use for water treatment. The membranes will be characterized regarding their structure, porosity, pore size, density, mechanical properties and surface characteristics. The project will be implemented in three years. The first year will involve isolation of nanomaterials and their characterization; the second and third year will involve application of the isolated of the nanomaterials for assembling membranes and testing their efficiency for water purification. Rent vatten och vattenresurser är en prioriterad fråga i hela världen. Industrier och jordbruk orsakar föroreningar som hamnar i mark och vatten och som är skadliga för människor, djur och för miljön. Våra naturliga vattenresurser innehåller också höga halter av skadliga ämnen som behövs renas innan användning. Ett sätt för att spara på vattenresurser är att återanvända industrivatten, genom ta bort de skadliga ämnen och ett annat sätt är att behandla naturligt vatten som innehåller föroreningar. Ett tredje sätt är att göra havsvatten drickbart eller tillgänglig för bevattning. Det finns behov att skapa enkla och billiga metoder som passar för vattenrening i länder som har stora problem med vatten. Vårt projektförslaget syftar till att använda restprodukter från jordbruket för framställning av nya miljövänliga billiga nanostructurerade material, kompositer, som testas för användning som ultrafiltreringsmembran för att rena vatten. Cellulosa nanofibrer isoleras från jordbruksavfall, t.ex från rishalm som är ett problem avfall i Egypten och orsakar luftföroreningar då de eldas. De isolerade nanofibrerna karakteriseras på olika sätt och används därefter till framställning av nanoporösa ultrafiltreringsmembran som testas för att avlägsna bakterier, partiklar och föroreningar från vatten. Arbetet kan leda till framställning av billiga enkla filter från problem avfall för att hjälpa till att lösa den ökade efterfrågan om rent vatten för människor, djur och växter.

Scandinavia in general, and Uppsala in particular, has a strong research profile in empirically based peace research. In this project, we seek to combine the experiences of Swedish peace research with the local competence and contextual knowledge of our Nepali colleagues to establish a firmer basis for empirically oriented peace research in Nepal. The research collaboration focuses on Nepal’s 2006 nonviolent uprising. Popular nonviolent uprisings have been a powerful force of change in many developing countries around the world. Yet, the dynamics of nonviolent uprisings are poorly understood, especially in comparison to violent insurgencies. In particular, we do not yet know what drives people to actually participate in the uprisings. This project sets out to conduct a survey of 1,200 participants and non-participants in the 2006 nonviolent uprisings, with the aim to try to identify the micro-foundations for nonviolent mobilization. The research is embedded in a larger institutional exchange. By way of its focus, it will for the first time bring Nepal’s experiences of nonviolent uprisings to the fore, but also contribute to understanding the conditions under which individuals join nonviolent uprisings. Varför väljer vissa människor att ansluta sig till ickevåldsliga uppror, medan andra förblir passiva eller tar till vapen? Hur skiljer sig ickevåldsanhängares motivation från de som tar till våld för att lösa politisk konflikt? I likhet med den arabiska våren 2011 har ickevåldsuppror under de senaste åren fått alltmer uppmärksamhet i såväl media som i freds- och konfliktforskningen. Ett framgångsrikt ickevåldsuppror som lyckades nå sitt mål – regimskifte – är det folkliga upproret i Nepal år 2006. Dock har detta uppror studerats förvånansvärt lite. I detta projekt ämnar vi upprätta ett forskningssamarbete mellan svenska och nepalesiska forskare för att stärka fredsforskningen i Nepal och studera 2006 års ickevåldsuppror. Det övergripande syftet med forskningsstudien är att söka belysa de underliggande orsakerna – de kausala mekanismerna – för människors beslut att delta i stora, folkliga ickevåldsuppror. Trots att många vetenskapliga studier publicerats på senare tid om ickevåldsuppror, så handlar de oftast om länder i stort – nästan inga studier fokuserar på människorna som faktiskt deltar, på gräsrotsnivå. För att förstå varför människor gick med i ickevåldsupproret kommer projektet att använda ett flertal forskningsmetoder: en enkätstudie med 1200 deltagare och icke-deltagare, 6-8 fokusgrupper, och omkring 20 djupintervjuer. Enkätstudien kommer att hjälpa oss att se breda trender: vilka är de som deltar i ickevåldsuppror, vad motiverade dem att ta till fredliga medel – istället för vapen – för att få till stånd politisk förändring? Fokusgrupperna och djupintervjuerna kommer att ge oss djupare kunskap, hur förklarar de som deltog (och inte) sina val? Till vilken grad spelar faktorer som t ex erfarenheter av krig och konflikt, psykologiska trauman från dessa upplevelser, och attityder omkring gender och jämlikhet? Projektet kommer bland annat att stödja en nepalesisk fredsforskare att komma till Uppsala för en kortare postdoc vistelse, samt för två svenska fredsforskare att besöka Nepal för att i samarbete med de nepalesiska kollegorna sätta upp och genomföra forskningsprojektet. Detta unika samarbete kommer att möjliggöra kompetensutveckling för båda parter.

Years later, the first cases of arsenic induced skin-lesions were identified and it was found that the drinking water was the source for the arsenic exposure. In Bangladesh alone, it is estimated that between 35-77 million people are at risk for arsenic derived health issues. Chronic arsenic poisoning results is a wide variety of pathological manifestations under the collective name arsenicosis with devastating consequences for afflicted individuals and for Bangladesh as a nation. It is established that protein misfolding is linked to a wide variety of diseases both as a cause and consequence. Misfolded proteins accumulate in many cell and organ types with apparent specificity for select proteins for certain diseases. The mechanisms involved are matters of intense research. Current research shows that self-propagation of misfolded proteins is a plausible mechanism for propagation of disease. Arsenic in various chemical forms is associated with inducing aberrant protein folding in laboratory experiments.

Years later, the first cases of arsenic induced skin-lesions were identified and it was found that the drinking water was the source for the arsenic exposure. In Bangladesh alone, it is estimated that between 35-77 million people are at risk for arsenic derived health issues. Chronic arsenic poisoning results is a wide variety of pathological manifestations under the collective name arsenicosis with devastating consequences for afflicted individuals and for Bangladesh as a nation. It is established that protein misfolding is linked to a wide variety of diseases both as a cause and consequence. Misfolded proteins accumulate in many cell and organ types with apparent specificity for select proteins for certain diseases. The mechanisms involved are matters of intense research. Current research shows that self-propagation of misfolded proteins is a plausible mechanism for propagation of disease. Arsenic in various chemical forms is associated with inducing aberrant protein folding in laboratory experiments. With this indication it also follows that if arsenicosis is associated with protein aggregate pathology (e.g. amyloidosis) preventive measures mitigating the intake of arsenic may still propagate the misfolding process necessitating alternative therapies for afflicted individuals.

Infektionssjukdomar är fortfarande en dödsorsak som drabbar människor, och framförallt barn, i utvecklingsländerna. Infektionssjukdomar är ett problem i samhället, men också i sjukhuset. Bakterier Shigella spp. och Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi båda orsakar förödande sjukdomar, shigellos och tyfus, främst hos barn i utvecklingsländerna med miljontals fall varje år med kumulativt över 1 miljon dödsfall. Shigella spp. är orsaken till bakteriell dysenteri eller shigellos, en invasiv gastrointestinal sjukdom, med 80-165.000.000 fall varje år världen över och cirka en miljon dödsfall . Shigella förökar sig intrecellulärt i tarmepitelet och sprider sig från cell till cell i epitelet vilken orsakar en karakteristisk sjukdomsbild med blodig diarré. S. typhi, på andra sidan, orsakar tyfoid feber , en systemisk sjukdom med 27 miljoner fall per år och uppskattningsvis 217.000 dödsfall årligen hela världen . Dessa siffror gör Shigella spp. och S. typhi infektioner till de ledande bakteriella orsaker av diarré i världen . Båda sjukdomarna överförs genom förorenad mat eller vatten. Den hygieniska tillstand särskilt i utvecklingsländerna gynnar spridningen av dessa sjukdomar. Lunginflammation är en vanlig komplikation hos patienter som kräver mekanisk ventilation, men också ett problem i samhället framför allt hos barn. Prevalens uppskattas varierar mellan 6 och 52 fall per 100 patienter beroende på befolkningsstudier. Klebsiella pneumoniae är den 6: e och 4: e och Enterobacter den 8: e och 5: e vanligaste känsliga och multiresistent patogen som orsakar ventilator associerad pneumoni i utvecklingsländerna. Det finns många regleringsmekanismer som styr virulens samt spridning av bakterier. En viktig mekanism är, till exempel, cyklisk di-GMP, en nukleotidbaserad intracellulär signalmolekyl. Den cykliska di-GMP -signalerings nätverk har inte undersökts i Shigella spp. , S. typhi och Enterobacter allts och bara lite i Klebsiella pneumoniae. Trots att den cykliska di -GMP signalerings nätverk är den mest komplexa nätverk av en sekundär budbärare i bakterier tills nu. En fundamental roll och kanske den viktigaste rollen för den cykliska di-GMP nätverket är regleringen av övergången mellan biofilmbildning och motilität samt övergången mellan akut och kronisk infektion. Dessa egenskaper gör att den cyklisk di-GMP -signalerings nätverk kan också vara ett mål för att utveckla nya anti-virulens strategier. I det här projektet vill vi karakterisera den cykliska di-GMP signalerings nätverk i modell stammar av S. Flexneri, S.

Dessutom kommer vi att screena för anti-biofilm och antimikrobiella substanser i en samling av isolerade naturliga isolerade substanser och extrakt från växter och andra naturresurser.

Because LIPs often associate with ore deposits and findings of other natural resources, this project addresses both scientific and industrial values, with potential bearings on the economic development in Morocco.

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.

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. Tillgänglig och effektiv cancerdiagnostik är viktigt för att skapa förutsättningar till högre livskvalitet.

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.

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.

To date, there is no established medical regimen for 2nd trimester PAC, instead unsafe methods (sharp curettage) are used. Our previous study in Uganda confirm the efficacy of medical management by midwives in 1st trimester PAC. We now aim to study efficacy and safety of medical vs. surgical treatment for 2nd trimester PAC in a randomised controlled trial. 1030 women, seeking care for incomplete 2nd trimester abortion at six health facilities in central Uganda, will be included. The use of sharp curettage will be monitored and evaluated during implementation. Primary outcome is the efficacy of treatment to expel the retained tissue without any additional surgical treatment. Secondary outcomes include safety, acceptability and contraceptive uptake. A study coordinating centre will be established in Kampala. Close collaboration between partner-researchers will facilitate study conduct (2016-2018). Preparations and training will occur during 2016, followed by recruitment during 2016-17 and data cleaning and analyses in 2018. Throughout the study period, in-service training of medical management in PAC will be held, workshops and policy-dialogues with stakeholders will be held to tailor-make service guidelines and to lobby for inclusion of medical management in policy. Two dissemination seminars will be held in 2016 and 2018 Projektet syftar till att förebygga konsekvenserna av osäkra aborter genom att öka tillgången till säker behandling av inkompletta aborter, samt öka kvinnors tillgång till effektiva preventivmedel.

Varje år dör 100000 kvinnor till följd av cirka 20 miljoner årliga illegala aborter. Genom ökad tillgång till effektiva och säkra preventivmedel, abortmetoder och behandling av ofullständiga aborter inklusive missfall, så kallad ”Post Abortion Care” (PAC), kan dessa dödsfall förhindras. Traditionellt utförs PAC med kirurgiska metoder. Våra tidigare studier i Uganda har lett till en medicinsk behandling av ofullständiga 1a trimesteraborter genom användning av misoprostol (abortpiller). Denna behandling är säker och effektiv och 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. I dagsläget finns ingen etablerad medicinsk behandling i 2a trimester PAC. Preventivmedel och rådgivning ingår också i PAC. För framgångsrik implementering av forskningsresultat är det viktigt att involvera intressenter i ett tidigt skede, samt nå ut till målgruppen genom att använda etablearde verktyg för kunskapsöverföring (policy-dialog, workshops, seminarier). Projektet genomförs på distriktsnivå i centrala Uganda där avsaknad av kunskap om, tillgång till, och stigma kring preventivmedel leder till oönskade graviditeter med efterföljande osäkra aborter. Ökad tillgänglighet till säker PAC behandling för kvinnor i allmänhet, men framförallt utsatta kvinnor på landsbygden, kan minska dödlighet och sjuklighet i relation till osäkert utförda aborter. Hälsoministerierna liksom WHO anser det nödvändigt att minska den höga mödradödligheten. Forskningsprojektet kommer att utföras i samarbete med Ugandas hälsoministerie samt engagera intressenter från start. Dessutom vill projektet ta avstamp i gruppens tidigare forskning för att skapa intresse och initiera strategiskt arbete, utbildning och påverkansarbete från start. Medverkande Ugandiska forskare kommer öka projektets genomförbarhet och sörja för kommunikation med intressenter. För att utvärdera misoprostol som behandling vid ofullständig abort i 2a trimestern jämfört med kirurgisk behandling planeras en randomiserad kontrollerad studie. Projektet kommer även övervaka användandet av osäkra metoder under implementeringsfasen. För att påverka policy och praxis kommer policy-dialoger, workshops och utbildningar hållas kontinuerligt. 1030 kvinnor som söker vård för ofullständig 2a trimester abort på olika vårdcentraler/distriktssjukhus lottas till kirurgisk eller medicinsk behandling. Utfallen som analyseras är fullständig abort utan komplikation, kvinnans acceptans och val av preventivmedel. Projektet kommer att ge ny information om 2a trimester PAC med misoprostol med avseende på effektivitet, säkerhet och kvinnans acceptans. Om en medicinsk behandling är minst lika effektiv som kirurgi kan detta öka kvinnors tillgänglighet till säker behandling av ofullständig abort på primärvårdsnivå och minska användningen av osäkra metoder, samt minska utgifter för hälsosystemet. Behovet av medicinsk behandling har också blivit tydligt under Ebolakrisen för att hantera inkompletta aborter och missfall utan direkt kontakt med kvinnan. En medicinsk behandling kan potentiellt utföras av barnmorskor. Därutöver kan projektet leda till förbättrad preventivmedelsrådgivning. Resultatet av studierna kan bidra till minskad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet dels genom utveckling av bättre tillgång till säker vård efter abort, dels genom att förebygga oönskade graviditeter.

To date, there is no established medical regimen for 2nd trimester PAC, instead unsafe methods (sharp curettage) are used. Our previous study in Uganda confirm the efficacy of medical management by midwives in 1st trimester PAC. We now aim to study efficacy and safety of medical vs. surgical treatment for 2nd trimester PAC in a randomised controlled trial. 1030 women, seeking care for incomplete 2nd trimester abortion at six health facilities in central Uganda, will be included. The use of sharp curettage will be monitored and evaluated during implementation. Primary outcome is the efficacy of treatment to expel the retained tissue without any additional surgical treatment. Secondary outcomes include safety, acceptability and contraceptive uptake. A study coordinating centre will be established in Kampala. Close collaboration between partner-researchers will facilitate study conduct (2016-2018). Preparations and training will occur during 2016, followed by recruitment during 2016-17 and data cleaning and analyses in 2018. Throughout the study period, in-service training of medical management in PAC will be held, workshops and policy-dialogues with stakeholders will be held to tailor-make service guidelines and to lobby for inclusion of medical management in policy. Two dissemination seminars will be held in 2016 and 2018 Projektet syftar till att förebygga konsekvenserna av osäkra aborter genom att öka tillgången till säker behandling av inkompletta aborter, samt öka kvinnors tillgång till effektiva preventivmedel.

There is an extensive literature documenting a relationship between high temperatures, conflict and poor economic performance (Burke et al 2009, Burke et al 2013). There is also a growing literature addressing how environmental factors and neurobiology influence economic choices. This includes work on the psychology of poverty, hunger and stress (Mani et al, 2013, Bushman et al 2014, Haushofer and Fehr 2014). However, little is known about how individual decision making is influenced by temperature. The core questions that will be studied in this reséarch project are: 1. What are the behavioral responses to variation in temperature? 2. What are the (neurobiological) mechanisms causing the behavioral responses? 3. Does temperature affect ethnic biases? We will conduct two experiments to study these questions, one that is concerned with causal effects from temperature on standard economic choices as well as stress and cognitive performance, and another that nails down the effect of temperature on ethnic biases, and so-called in-group versus outgroup effects. The data collected will help us study how stress and mental fatigue may influence the decision making of the poor, how ehtnic biases and conflicts are influenced and potentially induced by high temperature, and as a result how climate change may affect the outcomes for the poor. Människors beteende är komplicerat. Vi vet att beteende påverkas av resurstillgång såväl som många andra faktorer och omständigheter så som fysiska miljöer. Ekonomer har länge försökt skapa modeller för beteende i ekonomiska sammanhang, så som konsumenters reaktioner på pris- och inkomstförändringar såväl som allokeringsbeslut inom hushåll (Stone, 1954; Becker, 1974). Sedan 1960-talet har ekonomiska experiment i s k datalab blivit ett alltmer populärt verktyg, ett verktyg som har gjort det möjligt att studera beteende som inte så enkelt kan identifieras utifrån standard (konsumtions) data (Smith, 1962, Smith, 1982). Uppkomsten av experimentella metoder gav även upphov till vad som har kallats beteendeekonomi, där målet har varit att införliva psykologisk realism (Tversky and Kahneman, 1979) i ekonomiska beteendemodeller. Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är att bidra till denna litteratur genom att studera psykologiska reaktioner och beteendereaktioner på en specifik del av den fysiska omgivningen, dvs höga och låga temperaturer. Det finns en omfattande litteratur som dokumenterar ett samband mellan höga temperaturer, konflikt och dålig ekonomisk utveckling (Burke m fl 2009; Burke m fl 2013). En mycket viktig fråga inom utvecklingsekonomi är sålunda att precisera den bakomliggande mekanismen för sambandet mellan hög temperatur och dåliga ekonomiska utfall. Det finns också en växande litteratur som behandlar hur miljöfaktorer och neurobiologi påverkar ekonomiska val. Detta innefattar arbeten rörande fattigdomens psykologi, hunger och stress (Mani m fl, 2013; Bushman m fl 2014; Haushofer och Fehr 2014). Emellertid så är det ganska okänt hur individuellt beslutsfattande påverkas av temperatur. Tre kärnfrågor är: 1. Vilka är beteendereaktionerna på temperaturvariationer? 2. Vilka är de (neurobiologiska) mekanismerna som skapar beteendereaktioner? 3. Påverkar temperatur etniska snedvridningar? Detta forskningsprojekt kommer i viss utsträckning att behandla samtliga dessa frågor, men huvudfokus i forskningen kommer att ligga på den första och den tredje frågan. Då detta utgör ett nytt forskningsområde, har vi inga starka hypoteser om hur beteende förändras med temperatur. (Flera psykologiska studier rapporterar en ökad aggression, men det är inte uppenbart vad detta innebär för ekonomiskt beslutsfattande; se Burke m fl (2013) för en referens). Därför föreslår vi ett första experiment för att testa flera standardekonomiska val och utfall inklusive tilltro, prosocialt beteende, risktagande och tålamod. Det andra experimentet som vi föreslår är utformat för att identifiera potentiella effekter av temperaturer på etnisk-specifika snedvridningar och s k ”inomgrupps-” och ”utomgrupps” effekter som är relaterade till etnicitet. Det senare experimentet kommer sålunda att ha betydelse för litteraturen rörande konflikter i afrikanska länder. En litteratur som är relaterad till den andra frågan rörande mekanismerna för beteendeförändringar, är den litteratur som rör fattigdomens psykologi. Denna litteratur har identifierat att stress och mental utmattning är nyckelmekanismer för hur fattigdom påverkar beslutsfattande (Mani m fl, 2013; Haushofer och Fehr 2014). Vi tror att det kan vara möjligt att identifiera liknande mekanismer som förklarar hur temperaturer påverkar beteende och vi kommer i experimentet att testa hur temperaturen orsakar förändringar i testresultat för stress (som mäts genom salivprov) såväl som kognitiva testresultat.

Liver cirrhosis is the major risk factor for the development of HCC. In Ghana, liver cancer kills more adults than any other malignancy. Recent studies suggested that the intestinal microflora, which is the main source of portal vein Lipopolysaccharide, plays a critical role in this process. This joint effort with research and clinical experts in liver cancer, cirrhosis, microbiota, and epidemiology in Ghana, US and Sweden will help us to better understand the role of the intestinal microflora in the inflammatory process of liver cirrhosis and its progression. Our hypothesis is that the composition of the gut microbiome to which the liver is exposed at an enhanced level during liver cirrhosis, plays a role in the oncogenesis attributed to cirrhosis. We will study this using a prospective cohort study design including a group of liver cirrhosis patients and its matched healthy controls in Ghana. We will collect fecal samples from patients and controls and DNA will be extracted and 16S rRNA sequenced. If our hypothesis is proven correct, it opens up the possibility that simple probiotic regimens may be useful for prevention of liver cancer in low resource settings that would have a tremendous impact on poverty reduction. We estimate that the study will last 3 years and full results available in the year following the completion of the study.

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. 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 Viet Nam Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2015-05934-1 Sweden Despite small-scale fisheries (SSF) contributing two-thirds of global catches for human consumption, they have been increasingly marginalized and dispossessed by large-scale fisheries (LSF); a phenomenon labeled, ´the global ocean grab´. 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.

Examining previously underexplored links between two widely promoted approaches, it connects two major debates in development thinking that have been conspicuously separated. Designed as a qualitative comparative case study of two strategically selected low income countries and three major programmes in each, the project examines what happens to local participation as national ownership is strengthened. Cambodia and Rwanda are moving towards increased national ownership, though for partly different reasons and with Rwanda well ahead of Cambodia. The programmes studied all necessitate local engagement and have attracted donor attention and funding. The project will be conducted by two researchers with profound relevant expertise, in close collaboration with a reputable research institution in each country. Based on official documentation and 50 interviews in each country, manifestations will be traced of external influence and local engagement, which will illustrate qualities of national ownership and local participation in each programme. Comparative analyses within and between the countries, then, will illuminate the overall climate for local participation in a situation of strengthened national ownership, and shed light on what difference it makes locally that a country's development agenda is primarily nationally owned rather than donor driven. Det här forskningsprojektet behandlar "nationellt ägarskap" och "lokalt deltagande" i det internationella utvecklingsbiståndet, och den eventuella kopplingen mellan dem. Syftet är att undersöka vad som händer med det lokala deltagandet när det nationella ägarskapet ökar. Lokalt deltagande har länge varit starkt åberopat inom utvecklingsdebatten och det internationella utvecklingssamarbetet, något som de flesta aktörer har kunnat enas om som eftersträvansvärt. Men med den "nya biståndsarkitekturen", som kom att växa fram från millennieskiftet, har ett annat begrepp blivit dominerande: nationellt ägarskap anses helt central för att biståndet ska vara effektivt Både lokalt deltagande och nationellt ägarskap är i sig mångtydiga begrepp, och projektet utgår ifrån att nationellt ägarskap inte nödvändigtvis, så som vanligtvis antas, främjar lokalt deltagande. Tidigare forskning tyder snarare på att, för att förverkliga nationellt ägarskap krävs en stark centralmakt, vilket kan antas missgynna lokalt deltagande. Projektet bygger på kvalitativa och jämförande fallstudier av Kambodja och Rwanda, och av tre större utvecklingsrelaterade program i vart och ett av dem. Kambodja och Rwanda är av flera skäl lämpliga länder att studera och jämföra. De har båda under drygt 20 år mottagit stora mängder internationellt bistånd, och därmed mött skiftande biståndstrender, inklusive krav på både lokalt deltagande och nationellt ägarskap. Graden och typen av ägarskap har dock sett olika ut i de båda länderna. I båda fallen har ägarskapet efter hand stärkts, men av delvis olika skäl och det har hela tiden varit betydligt starkare i Rwanda än i Kambodja. I båda länderna har det lokala deltagande varit väldigt begränsat, och de många ambitiösa försök som har gjorts att förändra detta, har varit i olika grad initierade och drivna av internationella biståndgivare. De program som studeras är (1) decentraliseringsreformen, (2) policyn för lokal skogshantering, och (3) lagen om enskilda organisationer. Dessa har valts, dels därför att de alla förutsätter något slags lokal inblandning, dels för att de har fått uppmärksamhet och finansiering av internationella biståndsgivare, vilken skulle kunna leda till extern påverkan. De är också av likartad storlek och inriktning i de båda länderna, vilket underlättar jämförelser. Projektet bygger på en stor mängd officiell dokumentation och runt 50 intervjuer med nyckelpersoner på lokal och nationell nivå i vart och ett av länderna. I vart och ett av de sex programmen kommer uttryck för extern påverkan och för lokal inblandning sökas och undersökas, för att finna och förstå olika mönster av nationellt ägarskap och lokalt deltagande. Jämförelser kommer sedan göras inom och mellan de båda länderna, för att belysa förutsättningarna för lokalt deltagande i en situation av generellt stärkt nationellt ägarskap. Detta kommer i sin tur illustrera vilken roll det spelar lokalt ifall ett lands utvecklingsagenda bestäms i första hand av den egna regeringen eller av internationella biståndsgivare. Denna kunskap och förståelse kommer kunna användas för att förbättra hur man utformar och genomför aktiviteter som syftar till att öka nationellt ägarskap respektive loklat deltagande.

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.

Skatteindrivning är centralt för statens kapacitet och legitimitet. 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.

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.

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.

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.

A majority of these deaths occur in the poorest countries in the world, in areas of underserved populations with inadequate access to health services. 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. Cirka 5 miljoner barn under fem år dör varje år i södra Afrika och mer än hälften av dessa barn dör av sjukdomar som enkelt hade kunnat förebyggas eller behandlats med hjälp av beprövad och billig sjukvård. Kvinnor i södra Afrika löper mer än 300 gånger högre risk jämfört med kvinnor i utvecklade länder att dö under graviditet och förlossning av komplikationer som är behandlingsbara eller möjliga att förebygga. Denna dramatiska bild av barn- och mödradödlighet kallar på omedelbar uppmärksamhet för att förstå vilka hälsoprogram och metoder som fungerar samt hur effektiva program kan användas för att vända den negativa trenden. Den medicinska kunskapen för att bekämpa dödlighet av malaria, diarré och undernäring har varit tillgänglig i många år. Ändå dör miljontals av barn varje år i utvecklingsländer av dessa relativt enkelt behandlingsbara sjukdomar. Detta faktum visar på att medicinska lösningar inte är kärnan till problemet, utan det saknas kunskap om effektiva, implementerbara och hållbara sätt för att leverera dessa medicinska lösningar. Detta forskningsprojekt syftar till att undersöka hur man effektivt kan leverera grundläggande sjukvård i utvecklingsländer för att minska barn- och mödradödlighet. Projektet är uppdelat i två delar där syftet med den första delen är att bidra till bristen på bevis på effektiva och skalbara system för att leverera medicinska lösningar till fattiga människor. Inom forskningsfältet efterfrågas brådskande ett systematiskt forskningsprogram för att studera hur man bäst levererar basal hälsovård för att minska barn- och mödradödlighet. Detta är huvudhypotesen i den första delen av detta forskningsprojekt där jag rigoröst utvärderar två olika hälsosystem i Uganda och Nigeria som grundar sig på lokala frivilligarbetare inom hälsovård och utvärderar dess effekter på barn- och mödradödlighet. 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. Det existerar dock väldigt lite rigoröst bevis på effektiviteten av dessa program. Den andra delen av detta forskningsprojekt har som mål att studera detta genom att utvärdera två olika jämställdhetsprogram i Uganda - som ökar kvinnors bestämmanderätt i hushållen samt ger män essentiell kunskap om barn- och mödravård - och studerar dess effekter på barn och mödrars hälsa. Alla tre projekt i detta program implementeras och utvärderas under perioden 2017-2020 med randomiserade kontrollmetoder vilket är en välrenommerad kvantitativ utvärderingsmetod som rigoröst utvärderar effekten av olika interventioner och gör det möjligt att mäta den kausala effekten av programmen på barn- och mödradödlighet. Detta forskningsprojekt bidrar till den obesvarade forskningsfrågan om hur man bäst levererar grundläggande sjukvård till de mest behövande i fattiga delar av världen.

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.

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. Varför uppstod detta motstånd, och varför riktades det särskilt mot utländsk personal? Viss dokumentation föreligger som delvis kan förklara fenomenet, bl a det faktum att många av de hälsorutiner som karakteriserar ebolabekämpning upplevs av lokalbefolkningen som främmande och suspekta: isoleringen av patienter, tagning av blodprover, omfattande skyddsåtgärder och användning av främmande utrustning och teknik mm. Projektet syftar till att analysera dessa reaktioner i ljuset av en bredare kunskap om de drabbade samhällenas kultur och samhälle - inte minst föreställningar om häxeri och lokala förklaringsmodeller till sjukdom och död.

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.

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.

Here we propose to develop a set of odor-based tools that can be employed in push-pull strategies for sustainable control of fruit flies. These include: Development of a general fruit-odor based bait that target females across the fruit fly guild, Development a food-odor based bait that attracts multiple fruit fly species, Research and development of the use of native Cleoma gynandra as a 'catch crop' of Bactrocera spp, Field trials of baits and trap crop in suppressing fly populations, Unravel the parapheromone detection circuitry in fruit flies to rationally enhance baits. Cognizant of the fact that no silver bullet can lead to sustainable control of fruit flies, particularly not in low-income countries, we thus aim for development of a set of tools, that together with e.g. biological control, cultural practices, repellents, provide management options adapted to local agroecological settings. Utveckling av doftbaserade metoder för "push-pull" bekämpning av fruktflugor? Både inhemska och exotiska fruktflugor orsakar stora skördeförluster runt om i världen. I Afrika angrips både grönsaks- och fruktodling av fruktflugor vilket gör att inkomsten minskar eller helt uteblir ibland. Som så ofta är det de bönder som lever på marginalen som drabbas hårdast av reducerade skördar. Fruktflugorna skadar frukten genom att de lägger sina ägg inne i frukten och larverna som kläcks ur äggen livnär sig på fruktköttet. Det är alltså viktigt att förhindra att flug-honorna lägger sina ägg i frukten, för att undvika att frukten angrips. Hittills har en stor del bekämpningen av fruktflugor fokuserat på att minska antal hanar. Vanliga metoderna består i att lura hanarna till fällor eller till att få dem att äta kemiska insekticider som blandats med dofter som hanarna lockas av. När antalet hanar minskar, minskar chansen att honorna parar sig och på så sätt minskar sakta hela populationen. I vår forskning vill vi nu försöka utveckla doft-baserade metoder som skulle kunna användas för att både locka hon-flugorna men också skrämma iväg dem från den odlade frukten och grönsakerna. Det är viktigt att få fram dofter som kan fånga in honor av flera olika arter. Våra preliminära resultat har visat att honor lockas av dofter från olika frukter och vi har kunnat identifiera några av de ämnen som ingår i dofterna. Vi förväntar oss att vi skall kunna utveckla beten som kan användas för att fånga honorna. Även dofter från föda, protein och jäst, som fruktflugorna äter, har identifierats och hoppas vi på att kunna blanda till en riktigt lockande mix. De ämnen som används för att fånga hanar är delvis baserade på eller kommer ursprungligen ifrån blomdofter. Nu finns det indikationer på att även honorna är attraherade av en blomma, en paradisblomma, eller s.k. Afrikansk kål. Genom att undersöka attraktionen till blomman både i laboratorium och i fält hoppas vi kunna både förstå honors möjlighet att känna dofter men också testa möjligheten att odla blomman som en fång-gröda, vid sidan av grönsakerna. Det är vår intention att kunna erbjuda odlare en fälla som kanske inte luktar så gott för oss, men som både kan minska populationen av flugor men också förhindra att honorna att lägga ägg i odlade grödor. Vi vill med vår forskning komma fram till användbara och effektiva metoder för att minska problemen med fruktflugor. Vi vill samtidigt förstå och förklara hur flugorna kan känna dofter och hur informationen processas i deras hjärna. Dofterna känner insekten med sina antenner och sedan leds informationen i nervbanor in till hjärnan. Där bearbetas doftinformationen och beroende på ålder, kön, och om den är hungrig, reagerar flugan med ett specifikt beteende. Genom att studera både de grundläggande förutsättningarna hos insekterna att känna dofter, till att göra fältförsök med olika kombinationer av lockande och skrämmande dofter, så hoppas vi kunna förse lantbrukare med metoder som passar just dem; deras odling, fruktfluge-problem och plånbok.

Utveckling av doftbaserade metoder för "push-pull" bekämpning av fruktflugor? Både inhemska och exotiska fruktflugor orsakar stora skördeförluster runt om i världen. I Afrika angrips både grönsaks- och fruktodling av fruktflugor vilket gör att inkomsten minskar eller helt uteblir ibland. Som så ofta är det de bönder som lever på marginalen som drabbas hårdast av reducerade skördar. Fruktflugorna skadar frukten genom att de lägger sina ägg inne i frukten och larverna som kläcks ur äggen livnär sig på fruktköttet. Det är alltså viktigt att förhindra att flug-honorna lägger sina ägg i frukten, för att undvika att frukten angrips. Hittills har en stor del bekämpningen av fruktflugor fokuserat på att minska antal hanar. Vanliga metoderna består i att lura hanarna till fällor eller till att få dem att äta kemiska insekticider som blandats med dofter som hanarna lockas av. När antalet hanar minskar, minskar chansen att honorna parar sig och på så sätt minskar sakta hela populationen. I vår forskning vill vi nu försöka utveckla doft-baserade metoder som skulle kunna användas för att både locka hon-flugorna men också skrämma iväg dem från den odlade frukten och grönsakerna. Det är viktigt att få fram dofter som kan fånga in honor av flera olika arter. Våra preliminära resultat har visat att honor lockas av dofter från olika frukter och vi har kunnat identifiera några av de ämnen som ingår i dofterna. Vi förväntar oss att vi skall kunna utveckla beten som kan användas för att fånga honorna. Även dofter från föda, protein och jäst, som fruktflugorna äter, har identifierats och hoppas vi på att kunna blanda till en riktigt lockande mix. De ämnen som används för att fånga hanar är delvis baserade på eller kommer ursprungligen ifrån blomdofter. Nu finns det indikationer på att även honorna är attraherade av en blomma, en paradisblomma, eller s.k. Afrikansk kål. Genom att undersöka attraktionen till blomman både i laboratorium och i fält hoppas vi kunna både förstå honors möjlighet att känna dofter men också testa möjligheten att odla blomman som en fång-gröda, vid sidan av grönsakerna. Det är vår intention att kunna erbjuda odlare en fälla som kanske inte luktar så gott för oss, men som både kan minska populationen av flugor men också förhindra att honorna att lägga ägg i odlade grödor. Vi vill med vår forskning komma fram till användbara och effektiva metoder för att minska problemen med fruktflugor. Vi vill samtidigt förstå och förklara hur flugorna kan känna dofter och hur informationen processas i deras hjärna.

Där bearbetas doftinformationen och beroende på ålder, kön, och om den är hungrig, reagerar flugan med ett specifikt beteende. Genom att studera både de grundläggande förutsättningarna hos insekterna att känna dofter, till att göra fältförsök med olika kombinationer av lockande och skrämmande dofter, så hoppas vi kunna förse lantbrukare med metoder som passar just dem; deras odling, fruktfluge-problem och plånbok.

Within the collaboration we will conduct a prospective multi center implementation study on the training and introduction of groin hernia mesh repair under local anaesthesia in Ghana, Sierra Leone, Uganda and Tanzania. We will investigate the feasibility of task sharing to increase accessibility to surgical services for groin hernia in the involved sub-Saharan settings of this study. Patients (adult men with reducible, primary groin hernia) will be included at the respective study sites (n=228 per site). They will be operated under local anaesthesia using the anterior mesh repair with a low-cost synthetic mesh. They will be followed up after two weeks and after one year. The patients will be included into the study between 2016 and 2018 and follow up will be completed by 2019. Through the collaboration, we will pool knowledge and experience and we will increase operative capacity of the study team. It enables us to undertake large studies in several sites within a limited time frame. The results from this study will guide large scale implementation and introduction of the anterior mesh repair in the study countries and beyond. 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. 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.

We will investigate the feasibility of task sharing to increase accessibility to surgical services for groin hernia in the involved sub-Saharan settings of this study. Patients (adult men with reducible, primary groin hernia) will be included at the respective study sites (n=228 per site). They will be operated under local anaesthesia using the anterior mesh repair with a low-cost synthetic mesh. They will be followed up after two weeks and after one year. The patients will be included into the study between 2016 and 2018 and follow up will be completed by 2019. Through the collaboration, we will pool knowledge and experience and we will increase operative capacity of the study team. It enables us to undertake large studies in several sites within a limited time frame. The results from this study will guide large scale implementation and introduction of the anterior mesh repair in the study countries and beyond. 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. 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.

For Africa lack of data is a barrier to estimate effects. Satellite images indicate detrimental levels, but monitoring and high resolution outdoor air pollution modelling is lacking. Household air pollution is also a major source of exposure, more knowledge on how different cook stoves, fuels and habits affect exposure is crucial. No high quality study of the effect of outdoor and indoor air pollution on pregnant women in Africa has so far been conducted. We will investigate consequences of air pollution in a prospective cohort of women recruited during pregnancy at public health facilities in Ethiopia. Outdoor air pollution will be assessed by high quality modelling which combines measurements with Geographical Information System tools and aerial and topographical imaging. Individual exposure will be linked to the model by residential address. Indoor exposure will be assessed by questionnaires and validated by measurements. Emission factors from different fuels and cooking methods, and particle characteristics will be assessed in our Aerosol Lab in Lund. Data on pregnancy outcomes, exposures and confounders will be compiled and epidemiological studies on the effect of outdoor and household air pollution on pregnancy complications will be done. This study, which will increase knowledge of not only health impact but also of source characteristics, will provide important knowledge for appropriate policy making. Att luftföroreningar har en negativ inverkan på vår hälsa är knappast någon nyhet. Från epidemiologiska studier, i de delar av världen där luftföroreningar övervakas, har man gång på gång bevisat tydliga samband mellan inandade partiklar och hälsoeffekter. Det är denna typ av studier WHO grundar sina hälsogränsvärden för utomhusluften på - till exempel att halten partiklar som är mindre än 2,5 mikrometer inte bör överstiga 10 mikrogram per kubikmeter som årligt medelvärde. Dock finns det stora vita fläckar på kartan över länder där luftföroreningar mäts. Exempelvis görs i stort sett inga mätningar alls i stora delar av Afrika, och inte heller vetenskapliga studier om hälsoeffekter. Från satellitbilder över Afrika kan man gissa sig till att luftföroreningshalterna på flera ställen vida överstiger WHOs gränsvärden. Etiopien är ett av dessa ställen, och vi åkte dit för att kontrollera detta. Våra mätningar visade att utomhusluften i Adama, Etiopiens tredje största stad, hade halter på i genomsnitt ca 100 mikrogram per kubikmeter - tio gånger högre än vad WHO förespråkar. Det har visat sig att av Etiopiens befolkning är det gravida kvinnor som är allra mest drabbade. Förutom att de konstant blir utsatta för luftföroreningarna utomhus (det är mycket liten skillnad på &quot;utomhus&quot; och &quot;inomhus&quot; i stora delar av Afrika, husen är på inga sätt täta och har sällan t ex fönsterglas) blir de också utsatta för de luftföroreningar som bildas vid matlagning. Detta är en aktivitet som utförs minst två, oftast tre gånger dagligen. 95 % av befolkningen använder kol, ved eller kodynga som bränsle och en majoritet av husen har inget separat kök utan matlagningen sker i samma rum alla sover, och lever, i. Föroreningshalterna blir enorma, vi uppmätte genomsnittliga halter på 800 mikrogram partiklar mindre än 2,5 mikrometer per kubikmeter då man lagade mat med ved. Etiopien är också ett av länderna med högst mödradödlighet i världen, med havandeskapsförgiftning som huvudorsak. Denna graviditetskomplikation är i Etiopien orsak till 16 % av mödradödligheten och 25 % av de barn som är dödfödda är det på grund av havandeskapsförgiftning. Vi vill i denna studie titta på något ingen tidigare tittat på, nämligen hur starka sambanden mellan luftföroreningar och havandeskapsförgiftning, samt låg födelsevikt, egentligen är i Etiopien. Dessutom vill vi se om luftföroreningarna gör att kvinnorna oftare får tuberkulos. Detta vill vi göra genom att utveckla en modell för att med stor noggrannhet kunna uppskatta faktisk exponering för alla gravida kvinnor i Adama. Det pågår en annan studie, till vilken man nu rekryterar gravida kvinnor då de besöker mödravården. Denna grupp av kvinnor, som kommer att vara ungefär 2000 personer stor, kommer vi använda. Kvinnorna får fylla i en detaljerad enkät som bland mycket annat berör var de bor, hur ofta och länge de lagar mat och vilket bränsle de använder. I vårt laboratorium i Lund vill vi mäta hur mycket föroreningspartiklar som faktiskt släpps ut varje minut då man lagar mat över öppen eld eller med en traditionell etiopisk spis med ved, kol och kodynga. Med hjälp av detaljerade satellitkartor och mätningar på flera strategiska platser under olika årstider kan vi modellera hur luftföroreningarna utomhus ser ut för kvinnorna under olika perioder av deras graviditet. När vi kombinerar detta med information om matlagningsvanor och föroreningshalter från matlagningen uppmätta i vårt laboratorium kan vi räkna ut varje kvinnas totala exponering för luftföroreningar under olika perioder av graviditeten. Från mödravårdcentralerna övervakar man varje kvinnas hälsa, och har full koll på om, och iså fall när, en kvinna utvecklar havandeskapsförgiftning eller tuberkulos. Man övervakar även det nyfödda barnets vikt. Det kommer även finnas bra data på andra riskfaktorer.

Att luftföroreningar har en negativ inverkan på vår hälsa är knappast någon nyhet. Från epidemiologiska studier, i de delar av världen där luftföroreningar övervakas, har man gång på gång bevisat tydliga samband mellan inandade partiklar och hälsoeffekter. Det är denna typ av studier WHO grundar sina hälsogränsvärden för utomhusluften på - till exempel att halten partiklar som är mindre än 2,5 mikrometer inte bör överstiga 10 mikrogram per kubikmeter som årligt medelvärde. Dock finns det stora vita fläckar på kartan över länder där luftföroreningar mäts. Exempelvis görs i stort sett inga mätningar alls i stora delar av Afrika, och inte heller vetenskapliga studier om hälsoeffekter. Från satellitbilder över Afrika kan man gissa sig till att luftföroreningshalterna på flera ställen vida överstiger WHOs gränsvärden. Etiopien är ett av dessa ställen, och vi åkte dit för att kontrollera detta. Våra mätningar visade att utomhusluften i Adama, Etiopiens tredje största stad, hade halter på i genomsnitt ca 100 mikrogram per kubikmeter - tio gånger högre än vad WHO förespråkar. Det har visat sig att av Etiopiens befolkning är det gravida kvinnor som är allra mest drabbade. Förutom att de konstant blir utsatta för luftföroreningarna utomhus (det är mycket liten skillnad på &quot;utomhus&quot; och &quot;inomhus&quot; i stora delar av Afrika, husen är på inga sätt täta och har sällan t ex fönsterglas) blir de också utsatta för de luftföroreningar som bildas vid matlagning. Detta är en aktivitet som utförs minst två, oftast tre gånger dagligen. 95 % av befolkningen använder kol, ved eller kodynga som bränsle och en majoritet av husen har inget separat kök utan matlagningen sker i samma rum alla sover, och lever, i. Föroreningshalterna blir enorma, vi uppmätte genomsnittliga halter på 800 mikrogram partiklar mindre än 2,5 mikrometer per kubikmeter då man lagade mat med ved. Etiopien är också ett av länderna med högst mödradödlighet i världen, med havandeskapsförgiftning som huvudorsak. Denna graviditetskomplikation är i Etiopien orsak till 16 % av mödradödligheten och 25 % av de barn som är dödfödda är det på grund av havandeskapsförgiftning. Vi vill i denna studie titta på något ingen tidigare tittat på, nämligen hur starka sambanden mellan luftföroreningar och havandeskapsförgiftning, samt låg födelsevikt, egentligen är i Etiopien. Dessutom vill vi se om luftföroreningarna gör att kvinnorna oftare får tuberkulos. Detta vill vi göra genom att utveckla en modell för att med stor noggrannhet kunna uppskatta faktisk exponering för alla gravida kvinnor i Adama. Det pågår en annan studie, till vilken man nu rekryterar gravida kvinnor då de besöker mödravården. Denna grupp av kvinnor, som kommer att vara ungefär 2000 personer stor, kommer vi använda. Kvinnorna får fylla i en detaljerad enkät som bland mycket annat berör var de bor, hur ofta och länge de lagar mat och vilket bränsle de använder. I vårt laboratorium i Lund vill vi mäta hur mycket föroreningspartiklar som faktiskt släpps ut varje minut då man lagar mat över öppen eld eller med en traditionell etiopisk spis med ved, kol och kodynga. Med hjälp av detaljerade satellitkartor och mätningar på flera strategiska platser under olika årstider kan vi modellera hur luftföroreningarna utomhus ser ut för kvinnorna under olika perioder av deras graviditet. När vi kombinerar detta med information om matlagningsvanor och föroreningshalter från matlagningen uppmätta i vårt laboratorium kan vi räkna ut varje kvinnas totala exponering för luftföroreningar under olika perioder av graviditeten.

Health systems in resource scarce settings are less resilient to absorb the shocks of disasters, leading to erosion of health system capacities. The purpose of this project is to build on an ongoing research collaboration between the NIPH and KI is to support and strengthen institutional capacities in research, education, response and policy dialogue. Between 2017 and 2019, we aim to explore the health and health system effects of flooding in Cambodia and factors that may strengthen health system resilience, by identifying morbidities and risk factors for changes in health service delivery during flood periods. We also aim to expand and provide support to the current NIPH education and training programs and build capacity for response and policy dialogue, aligned with the Cambodia disaster response system, through teacher exchanges and research-related workshops and group meetings. Improving capacity will lead to Cambodia's improved preventative and resilience capabilities in upcoming disasters. Both institutions will benefit from the knowledge generation, and individual researchers and students will gain from the educational and supervisory opportunities and the application of skills and training. Kambodja är ett låginkomst- och katastrofbenäget land, där naturkatastrofer förutspås bli mer intensiva och mer frekventa på grund av klimatförändringar. En stor del av befolkningen är sårbar, framförallt de som lever i fattigdom och katastrofer riskerar förvärra deras situation ytterligare. Hälso- och sjukvårdssystemen i resurs-knappa miljöer är mindre motståndskraftiga i att absorbera de chocker en katastrof innebär, vilket leder till en erodering av hälsosystemets kapacitet och motverkar uppbyggandet av ett resilient system. Det nationella folkhälsoinstitutet (NIPH) arbetar under hälsoministeriet och är ett unikt utbildnings- och forskningsinstitut inom folkhälsa i Kambodja.

We have previously developed a simple, inexpensive test for diagnosis of TB based on detection of mycobacterial lipoarabinomannan (LAM) in urine. The test format we used however had suboptimal sensitivity for routine clinical use. We have now increased the sensitivity of the test a 100-fold, using monoclonal antibodies with extremely high avidity, and increasing the signal by using new nanotechnology techniques, making it an extremely promising platform for rapid TB diagnosis. Aim: The central aim of this application is to assess the performance of the test prototype for diagnosis of TB in distinct clinical trials, both in high endemic (South Africa and Mozambique) and low endemic (Sweden and Portugal) countries, with particular emphasis on children and patients with/without HIV co-infection.

By extension, this pursuit is also directed at poverty reduction in the developing world as it is intrinsically linked to infectious diseases. To this end, the proposed project aims at advancing natural products with known activity against multi-drug resistant bacteria towards clinical relevance. We will develop efficient chemical syntheses (total and semi-synthetic routes) to access compounds that are not available through other means for biological and mechanistic investigation. The mechanistic work will be used to guide the development of improved and/or simplified structural analogs that can be used at a lower cost. Understanding how to rationally design complex phenylalanine mimetics and oleane triterpenoid structures in this context provides entries to rational development of new generations of small molecule antibiotics working through the same mechanism. The work is enabled by an interdisciplinary collaboration between synthetic chemists in Sweden and Uganda, natural product chemists in Mexico, and microbiologists in South Africa. En infektion i luftvägarna är ofta hanterbar i Sverige. I Afrika däremot, är sådana infektioner den vanligaste dödsorsaken. Lunginflammation får mindre uppmärksamhet än t.ex. HIV och malaria, men ger det största bidraget till spädbarnsdödligheten i Afrika söder om Sahara. Infektioner av den här typen drabbar i större utsträckning fattiga samhällen. Genom att behandlingarna är dyra, särskilt behandling av resistenta bakterier, och genom att de drabbade stigmatiseras och ofta förlorar sin inkomst under behandlingen driver de fram ytterligare fattigdom. I takt med att problemen med bakterieresistens ökar i Afrika kommer dessa problem sannolikt att förvärras. Det är därför av yttersta vikt att utöka vårt bibliotek av billiga och snabbverkande antibiotika som också verkar mot resistenta bakterier. Läkemedelsindustrin har traditionellt varit dålig på att ta fram nya typer av antibiotika. I själva verket är såväl penicillin som tre fjärdedelar av alla antibiotika som tagits fram sedan 40-talet baserade på aktiva ämnen från naturen eller syntetiska substanser som formgivits utifrån naturliga ämnen. En svårighet med att utveckla läkemedel från naturprodukter är att man från början inte vet hur de fungerar. Ofta förekommer de också i för små mängder för att kunna användas till läkemedel. Det är inte ovanligt att det finns det så lite i naturen att det inte räcker ens till forskning för att förstå hur molekylerna fungerar. Med hjälp av kemisk syntes kan man utveckla metoder för att framställa också ytterst komplexa molekyler i större mängder. I det här projektet vill vi framställa en molekyl som isolerats från mikrober hittade i en övergiven gruva i Korea och kemiskt förbättra molekyler isolerade från djungeln på Yukatanhalvön i Mexico. Dessa strukturer är intressanta eftersom de har visat sig vara aktiva också mot resistenta bakterier. Genom att framställa dem i större mängder kan vi dels ta reda på hur de fungerar och dels vidareutveckla dem som läkemedel. Genom att förklara hur de fungerar vill vi inspirera andra forskare att ta fram nya bättre antibiotika som fungerar genom samma principer.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2016-05685_1-1 Sweden Expanding the library of broad-spectrum antibiotics is a central component of combating bacterial respiratory tract infections. By extension, this pursuit is also directed at poverty reduction in the developing world as it is intrinsically linked to infectious diseases. To this end, the proposed project aims at advancing natural products with known activity against multi-drug resistant bacteria towards clinical relevance. We will develop efficient chemical syntheses (total and semi-synthetic routes) to access compounds that are not available through other means for biological and mechanistic investigation. The mechanistic work will be used to guide the development of improved and/or simplified structural analogs that can be used at a lower cost. Understanding how to rationally design complex phenylalanine mimetics and oleane triterpenoid structures in this context provides entries to rational development of new generations of small molecule antibiotics working through the same mechanism. The work is enabled by an interdisciplinary collaboration between synthetic chemists in Sweden and Uganda, natural product chemists in Mexico, and microbiologists in South Africa. En infektion i luftvägarna är ofta hanterbar i Sverige. I Afrika däremot, är sådana infektioner den vanligaste dödsorsaken. Lunginflammation får mindre uppmärksamhet än t.ex. HIV och malaria, men ger det största bidraget till spädbarnsdödligheten i Afrika söder om Sahara. Infektioner av den här typen drabbar i större utsträckning fattiga samhällen. Genom att behandlingarna är dyra, särskilt behandling av resistenta bakterier, och genom att de drabbade stigmatiseras och ofta förlorar sin inkomst under behandlingen driver de fram ytterligare fattigdom. I takt med att problemen med bakterieresistens ökar i Afrika kommer dessa problem sannolikt att förvärras. Det är därför av yttersta vikt att utöka vårt bibliotek av billiga och snabbverkande antibiotika som också verkar mot resistenta bakterier. Läkemedelsindustrin har traditionellt varit dålig på att ta fram nya typer av antibiotika. I själva verket är såväl penicillin som tre fjärdedelar av alla antibiotika som tagits fram sedan 40-talet baserade på aktiva ämnen från naturen eller syntetiska substanser som formgivits utifrån naturliga ämnen. En svårighet med att utveckla läkemedel från naturprodukter är att man från början inte vet hur de fungerar. Ofta förekommer de också i för små mängder för att kunna användas till läkemedel.

The current definition of hypoglycemia is a blood glucose of less than 2.5mmol/l: this is found in 7.3% of children admitted with fever, with an associated mortality rate of 42%.

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. Forskningen kommer att utföras med en forskare från Malawi och en från Sverige som huvudansvariga.

This has three reasons: (1) The government may be fighting several armed groups at the same time; (2) New armed groups may emerge during the transition; (3) Armed conflicts having ended may become active again. The project will study processes by which several armed conflicts are terminated in one country, with emphasis on the impact conflict terminations have on other conflicts in the same country. This has implications for theory. When one conflict ends, other armed groups will consider whether they shall seek a settlement, stay inactive or continue fighting. They may co-ordinate with each other, or splinter into factions. We aim to view all conflicts in a country as a system, using Myanmar as our main case. We will develop a theory of reputation learning in which governments and armed groups gain reputation for trustworthiness, resolve, and military capacity. The project, based at Uppsala University and including a Norwegian partner (PRIO) and a Myanmar based research team, consists in (1) updating the UCDP Peace Agreement Dataset for 2012-2016, to enable (2) a statistical analysis of all developing countries with intrastate armed conflict, and (3) an in-depth case study of how conflict terminations and onsets have influenced each other in Myanmar's conflict system since 1989. The project, running 2017-2019, combines quantitative and qualitative methods. Väpnade konflikter utgör ett stort hinder för fattigdomsbekämpning. Många låginkomstländer har långvariga och komplexa konflikter med flera olika väpnade grupper. Exempel är Afghanistan, Demokratiska Republiken Kongo, Myanmar, Somalia, och Sudan. Det samma gäller medelinkomstländer som Colombia, Filippinerna, och Syrien. För att uppnå fred i ett land krävs flera konfliktavslut om (1) regeringen befinner sig i konflikt med flera olika väpnande grupper samtidigt; (2) nya väpnade grupper uppstår; eller (3) konflikter som avslutats börjar om igen. Vårt forskningsprojekt undersöker hur länder med flera olika väpnande grupper kan uppnå fred. Vi vill studera hur det påverkar andra konflikter inom samma land när en konflikt avslutas. När en väpnad grupp sluter ett fredsavtal med regeringen, eller besegras militärt, eller av andra skäl slutar att aktivt strida mot regeringen, observerar andra väpnande grupper denna utveckling, och drar slutsatser för om den ska förhandla med regeringen, förhålla sig passiv eller fortsätta strida. Väpnade grupper kan också bilda allianser, eller splittras. Projektet kommer att behandla alla konflikter inom ett land som ett system, och undersöka de processer som leder till en minskning av antalet väpnade grupper, så att fred inträder när den sista aktiva gruppen avslutar sin kamp eller lägger ner sina vapen. Vi vill utveckla en teori om hur regeringar och väpnade gruppers rykte för pålitlighet, stridsvilja, och militär kapacitet uppstår, och hur andra aktörer i systemet bildar sig en uppfattning om dessa rykten genom att observera förhandlingar, efterlevnad av ingångna fredsavtal, och stridshandlingar. Med hjälp av denna teori kan vi formulera hypoteser om varför väpnade grupper väljer att sluta strida mot regeringen. Det mest originella i vår teori är att den bygger på hur konfliktaktörer lär sig om sina konkurrenter och motparter genom att observera hur de uppträder mot varandra. Detta är särskilt viktigt i länder med många aktiva konflikter. Som en del av projektet kommer nya data om fredsavtal i utvecklingsländer att insamlas av Uppsala Conflict Data Program (UCDP). UCDP tillhandahåller redan data om alla fredsavtal i alla världens väpnade konflikter för åren 1975-2011, och vi avser att uppdatera denna datasamling med åren 2012-2016. Detta är en viktig förbättring av en väl använd resurs. Dessa data kommer vi att använda i en statistisk studie av alla utvecklingsländer som befinner sig i väpnad konflikt för att pröva våra hypoteser om hur fred kan uppnås. Samma data, och nya data insamlade lokalt i Myanmar kommer att ingå i en fallstudie av hur olika konfliktavslut, allianser mellan väpnade grupper, och nybildningar av väpnade grupper, påverkat varandra och den totala mängden våldsam konflikt i låginkomstlandet Myanmars komplexa konfliktsystem sedan 1989. Fallstudien kommer också att syfta till att utveckla nya argument och hypoteser som förbättrar vår ursprungliga teoretiska referensram.

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. We will study indigenous cattle and ticks in all 11 agro-ecological zones of Uganda using metagenomics. Metagenomics has proven to be a powerful tool for pathogen detection and for making in depth analysis of the microbial community. The microbiome of ticks feeding on cattle or living in its close proximity will be characterized and compared with the cattle microbiome. We propose to build a smart and user-friendly bioinformatics framework for comparison of metagenomes. Our results will give insights into the microbiome of cattle and its relation to tick microbiome and disease. Possibly, new disease causing agents will be identified. The study will also contribute with knowledge on how cattle owners understand the relationships between ticks, cattle and TBDs. The knowledge generated in this project can contribute to more appropriately designed interventions for diagnosis and prevention of TBDs. 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.

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. We will study indigenous cattle and ticks in all 11 agro-ecological zones of Uganda using metagenomics.

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.

Bakteriella infektioner är ett vanligt problem i samband med dentalkirurgiska ingrepp. Benvävnad påverkas av en mängd olika bakterier, virus och svampar efter traumatiska tillstånd som infektion och abscess. Det vetenskapliga samfundet är på jakt efter effektiva läkemedel för att ingripa i infektioner orsakade av dessa organismer. Utvecklingen av antimikrobiella molekyler som kan införlivas i kirurgiska "byggnadsställningar" och medicinska produkter som kan ingripa mot ben- eller tandinfektioner efter kirurgiska ingrepp eller trauma är ett hett forskningsområde. Främmande partiklar och bakterieinfektioner kan inte bara fördröja läkningsprocessen, utan också innebära allvarliga eller rent ödesdigra konsekvenser i sårläkningsprocessen. Olika sårförband har rutinmässigt använts, trots otillfredsställande resultat, i synnerhet med kroniska sår. Därför finns det ett omedelbart behov av mer avancerade behandlingar för effektiv sårläkning. Projektet syftar till att utveckla smarta och biobaserade produkter som kan hantera eller lindra de ovan nämnda utmaningarna för tandvård. Det medicinska teamet i Indien som arbetar inom parodontologi har identifierat behovet av nya material som ställningar, sårförband och sårläkning, för att avbryta postoperativa infektioner vid kirurgiska ingrepp. Ställningar i kombination med biobaserade sårförband i form av membran laddade med läkemedel för att läka såren samt hydrogeler för att underlätta läkning och smärtlindring kommer att vara av stor praktisk betydelse inom tandvården. Tre innovativa produkter ska utvecklas inom detta projekt: Bioaktiva 3D strukturerade nanopartikelbaserade bioglas, skaffold med tredje generationens egenskaper för Periodontala tillämpningar Formbara och biobaserad ympmaterial laddade med antimikrobiella molekyler, som har bättre nedbrytningshastighet i enlighet med benreparation samt mekaniska egenskaper, och som är kompatibla med värdbenet, vilket allt kan hjälp a till för snabb läkning och bryta postoperativa infektioner.

Biobaserade antibakteriella medel såsom nanochitin och nanocellulosa kommer att användas som alternativ till de antibakteriella produkter som finns tillgängliga på marknaden idag, inte minst nanopartiklar av silver. Projektet avser att utveckla nya varianter av nanocellulosa. Detta ska göras i samarbete med indiska partners. Vi kommer att utnyttja rikliga och lättillgängliga naturresurser (naturfibrer) i den södra delstaten i Indien (Kerala). Fastän rapporter om kortsiktig cytocompatiblitet av nanocellulosa och nanochitin finns, så är information om prestanda på lång sikt in vivo begränsad. Detta kommer att vara ett fokus för det aktuella projektet. Identifieringen av medicinalväxter från den indiska delstaten som kan användas för sårläkning, antibakteriella eller nutraceutiska medel kommer också att ingå i denna studie. Tillvägagångssättet för att uppnå dessa mål är att: använda den kompetens och know-how som finns i den indiska forskargruppen (MGU), för bearbetning och de avancerade metoderna för karakterisering som finns hos den svenska forskargruppen (SU). Detta avses resultera i innovativa medicinska produkter och lösningar för sårläkning och tandvård. fastställa gemensamma forskningsaktiviteter mellan forskargrupper och aktivt utbyta personal och junior- och seniorforskare.

Vi kommer att utnyttja rikliga och lättillgängliga naturresurser (naturfibrer) i den södra delstaten i Indien (Kerala). Fastän rapporter om kortsiktig cytocompatiblitet av nanocellulosa och nanochitin finns, så är information om prestanda på lång sikt in vivo begränsad. Detta kommer att vara ett fokus för det aktuella projektet. Identifieringen av medicinalväxter från den indiska delstaten som kan användas för sårläkning, antibakteriella eller nutraceutiska medel kommer också att ingå i denna studie. Tillvägagångssättet för att uppnå dessa mål är att: använda den kompetens och know-how som finns i den indiska forskargruppen (MGU), för bearbetning och de avancerade metoderna för karakterisering som finns hos den svenska forskargruppen (SU). Detta avses resultera i innovativa medicinska produkter och lösningar för sårläkning och tandvård. fastställa gemensamma forskningsaktiviteter mellan forskargrupper och aktivt utbyta personal och junior- och seniorforskare.

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?

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.

Bolivia, Chile and Peru in the Nordic countries'mirror is a collaborative network of scholars in Europe and Latin America. These researchers will develop a three year project with the aim of consolidate a high quality network in Natural Resources studies in the Sustainable development framework. They will do three workshops, two in Sweden and one in Bolivia. In the planning, there are six articles and one book, written in collaboration between the researchers of this project and with other scholars whom will enhance our proposal. Also, and in the aim to extract lessons from successful countries to the underdeveloped and developing regions, the group will share the results to a broader public and authorities through a web page and periodical policy briefs. The ambition is that the joint work envisaged in this proposal will generate a flexible but consistent research network, which will continue to cooperate in further directions. Specific focus may change, but it will be kept in the general idea of extracting lessons for development from successful experiences of countries that today are both rich and equitable in comparative international terms. Projektet Hållbar utveckling, finanspolitik, och förvaltning av naturresurser. Boliva, Chile och Per&#250; i jämförelse med de Nordiska länderna bygger på ett samarbete mellan forskare i Europa och Sydamerika. Syftet med projektet är att identifiera och jämföra utveckling och resultat av naturresurserpolitiken i en grupp Latinamerikanska länder som är speciellt rika på liknande mineralresurser och har en historia av liknande konflikter (Boliva, Chile och Peru) med utvecklingen i de Nordiska länderna (Finland, Norge och Sverige). Projekt adresserar huvudsakligen den historiska utvecklingen av ländernas naturresurserspolitik och söker att identifiera lärdomar och framgångsexempel med relevans för dagens politik i låg- och medelinkomstländer med betydande tillgångar av naturresurser. Projektdeltagarna kommer att åstadkomma en analys av flera indikatorer relaterade till naturresurser och hållbar utveckling i ett långt tidsperspektiv (1870-2015) genom att använda metoder och analysverktyg från ekonomisk historia och relaterade discipliner. Tre mått, eller element, kommer att utgöra kärnan för projektet: i) Genuine Savings, som är ett omfattande mått på ekonomisk utveckling och inkluderar förslitningen av naturresurser och degraderingen av miljön; ii) ekonomiska länkar mellan naturresurser och resten av ekonomin mätt som strukturella förändringar (kapaciteten inom länderna att diversifiera sin ekonomi) samt iii) fiskala indikatorer som mäter beroendet av naturresurser för de Latinamerikanska ländernas statsfinanser och huruvida denna relation förklarar underskott och volatilitet i statsbudgeten. Ett specifikt syfte med projektet är därmed att utveckla ett omfattande och enhetligt mått på utveckling som gör det möjligt att jämföra de Latinamerikanska ländernas långsiktiga utveckling i relation till de Nordiska från andra delen av 1800-talet fram till idag. För att öka förståelsen av makroutvecklingen kommer även en analys på företagsnivå att utföras genom ett antal case som fokuserar på tillväxten i dessa företag i relation till en hållbar hantering av naturresurser och miljörisker. Projektet kommer att generera minst sex artiklar skrivna enskilt eller i samarbete av projektdeltagarna, en editerad bok av projektledarna med kapitelbidrag från övriga projektdeltagare och inbjudna författare.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2016-05721-1 Sweden The project Sustainable development, Fiscal Policy and Natural Resources Management. Bolivia, Chile and Peru in the Nordic countries'mirror is a collaborative network of scholars in Europe and Latin America. These researchers will develop a three year project with the aim of consolidate a high quality network in Natural Resources studies in the Sustainable development framework. They will do three workshops, two in Sweden and one in Bolivia. In the planning, there are six articles and one book, written in collaboration between the researchers of this project and with other scholars whom will enhance our proposal. Also, and in the aim to extract lessons from successful countries to the underdeveloped and developing regions, the group will share the results to a broader public and authorities through a web page and periodical policy briefs. The ambition is that the joint work envisaged in this proposal will generate a flexible but consistent research network, which will continue to cooperate in further directions. Specific focus may change, but it will be kept in the general idea of extracting lessons for development from successful experiences of countries that today are both rich and equitable in comparative international terms. Projektet Hållbar utveckling, finanspolitik, och förvaltning av naturresurser. Boliva, Chile och Per&#250; i jämförelse med de Nordiska länderna bygger på ett samarbete mellan forskare i Europa och Sydamerika. Syftet med projektet är att identifiera och jämföra utveckling och resultat av naturresurserpolitiken i en grupp Latinamerikanska länder som är speciellt rika på liknande mineralresurser och har en historia av liknande konflikter (Boliva, Chile och Peru) med utvecklingen i de Nordiska länderna (Finland, Norge och Sverige). Projekt adresserar huvudsakligen den historiska utvecklingen av ländernas naturresurserspolitik och söker att identifiera lärdomar och framgångsexempel med relevans för dagens politik i låg- och medelinkomstländer med betydande tillgångar av naturresurser. Projektdeltagarna kommer att åstadkomma en analys av flera indikatorer relaterade till naturresurser och hållbar utveckling i ett långt tidsperspektiv (1870-2015) genom att använda metoder och analysverktyg från ekonomisk historia och relaterade discipliner. Tre mått, eller element, kommer att utgöra kärnan för projektet: i) Genuine Savings, som är ett omfattande mått på ekonomisk utveckling och inkluderar förslitningen av naturresurser och degraderingen av miljön; ii) ekonomiska länkar mellan naturresurser och resten av ekonomin mätt som strukturella förändringar (kapaciteten inom länderna att diversifiera sin ekonomi) samt iii) fiskala indikatorer som mäter beroendet av naturresurser för de Latinamerikanska ländernas statsfinanser och huruvida denna relation förklarar underskott och volatilitet i statsbudgeten. Ett specifikt syfte med projektet är därmed att utveckla ett omfattande och enhetligt mått på utveckling som gör det möjligt att jämföra de Latinamerikanska ländernas långsiktiga utveckling i relation till de Nordiska från andra delen av 1800-talet fram till idag. För att öka förståelsen av makroutvecklingen kommer även en analys på företagsnivå att utföras genom ett antal case som fokuserar på tillväxten i dessa företag i relation till en hållbar hantering av naturresurser och miljörisker. Projektet kommer att generera minst sex artiklar skrivna enskilt eller i samarbete av projektdeltagarna, en editerad bok av projektledarna med kapitelbidrag från övriga projektdeltagare och inbjudna författare.

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.

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.

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.

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. Detta samarbetsprojekt siktar på att med kompetens från Sverige och forskare i Indonesien sprida kunskap och kompetens hur man utvecklar dessa processer. 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. Erfarenheten från de Svenska Universiteten Högskolan i Borås och Chalmers är stor inom området biogasproduktion. Tillsammans med de mycket goda och långa samarbeten som existerar mellan dessa ansökande Svenska och Indonesiska Universitet skapar vi i projektet goda förutsättningar för ett effektivt, framgångsrikt och långsiktigt samarbete inom biogasproduktion.

Artemisinin resistance is phenotypically characterized by delayed microscopy determined parasite clearance, which has been linked to mutations in the K13 propeller. However, K13 associated artemisinin resistance have not yet been documented in Africa. However, we have recently shown PCR determined delayed parasite clearance in parasite sub-populations in Bagamoyo District, Tanzania, using deep sequencing approaches, as well as temporal selection of genetic markers associated with lumefantrine tolerance/resistance. These findings may represent early warning signs of ACT resistance in East Africa. While awaiting development of alternative drugs optimal use of available tools are critically needed to protect/prolong the therapeutic lifespan of ACTs. We propose two new strategies with old tools. First, an extension of ACT therapy from 3 to 5 days. This will expose the parasites to 48 hours more of artemisinin. Second, to add a single low lose of the gametocytocidal drug primaquine (0.25 mg/kg) on the fifth treatment day to reduce transmission. This will be studied in a randomized controlled trial. The assessment will provide an opportunity to characterize the PCR determined day-3 and even day-5 positive parasite sub-population and improve the understanding of survival strategies among East-African P. falciparum. Trots dramatiska förbättringar under det senaste decenniet kvarstår Plasmodium falciparum malaria som en av vår tids viktigaste sjukdomar ur ett globalt perspektiv. Artemisinin-baserad kombinationsterapi (ACT) är den mest effektiva behandlingen som idag finns tillgänglig mot malaria. Utveckling av resistens mot dessa läkemedel skulle få allvarliga konsekvenser för global malaria kontroll då inga riktigt bra behandlingsalternativ finns tillgängliga. Vi har nyligen noterat tecken hos malariaparasiten i Tanzania att den börjat utveckla viss motståndskraft mot den långverkande substansen i ACT. I tillägg finns nu data som bekräftar att malariaparasiten i Sydostasien utvecklat motståndskraft mot den snabbverkande substansen i ACT (artemisinin). I en nyligen genomförd studie tillsammans med internationella kollegor har vi påvisat tecken till långsam avdödning av visa undergrupper av mariaparasiter även i Tanzania med hjälp av högkänslig molekylär teknik. Vår bedömning är därför att det föreligger en överhängande risk för ACT resistens i Tanzania. I väntan på att nya läkemedel finns tillgängliga är det av största vikt att finna nya strategier syftande till att förlänga den terapeutiska livslängden av artemisinin-baserad kombinationsbehandling. I denna studie ämnar vi studera betydelsen av förlängd behandling, från 3 till 5 dagar med artemisinin-baserad kombinationsbehandling samt göra tillägg med en single-dos av primakin, ett läkemedel som stoppar smitta mellan människa och mygga genom att avdöda könsformerna av malariaparasiten. Primakin kommer att ges under den 5:e behandlingsdagen av ACT för att maximera den avdödande effekten på könsformerna.

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.

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.

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).

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 will be achieved by creating a network of researchers, nephrologists and pathologists in the different regions enabling the implementation of a comparative study of detailed described cohorts with emphasis on the renal morphology, biochemical findings and clinical data. Two detailed cohorts are already available from Central America and a third study in Sri Lanka will be initiated this year. A fourth study will be planned and executed during the study period. The findings will be presented and discussed at a joint workshop where a diagnostic scheme for evaluating renal biopsies from affected patients will be developed. A summarizing workshop will be held to evaluate the diagnostic scheme and plan for further collaborations. Results will be compiled in joint scientific publications. The outcome will have significant impact of the research field of chronic kidney disease of unknown cause, an emerging health problem worldwide. Furthermore, this study will strengthen the local capacity among nephrologists and pathologists to evaluate patients with chronic kidney disease of unknown cause and also create a platform for further studies on the endemics. 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. Målsättning: Det övergripande målet för detta projekt är att skapa ett nätverk mellan läkare och forskare i drabbade områden och forskningsaktiva inom detta fält. Syftet är att långsiktigt stödja och utveckla forskning för att förbättra prognos, diagnostik, behandling och prevention av CKDu i Centralamerika och Sydostasien. Projektplan: Vi kommer att noggrant undersöka utvalda patientgrupper med CKDu i drabbade områden i El Salvador, Nicaragua, Sri Lanka och Indien för att se om patientgrupperna i dessa länder har liknande biokemiska förändringar i blod och urin samt liknande bild vid avancerad mikroskopisk undersökning av 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. Att finna orsaken bakom CKDu är av största vikt för att kunna förebygga och behandla sjukdomen. 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. Genom samarbetet inom nätverket kommer nya frågeställningar att kunna identifieras och fler projekt kunna initieras vilket driver forskningen om CKDu vidare.

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. Målsättning: Det övergripande målet för detta projekt är att skapa ett nätverk mellan läkare och forskare i drabbade områden och forskningsaktiva inom detta fält. Syftet är att långsiktigt stödja och utveckla forskning för att förbättra prognos, diagnostik, behandling och prevention av CKDu i Centralamerika och Sydostasien. Projektplan: Vi kommer att noggrant undersöka utvalda patientgrupper med CKDu i drabbade områden i El Salvador, Nicaragua, Sri Lanka och Indien för att se om patientgrupperna i dessa länder har liknande biokemiska förändringar i blod och urin samt liknande bild vid avancerad mikroskopisk undersökning av 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.

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. Denna kunskap är central för att ta fram mer effektiva åtgärder för att uppnå mer fredliga samhällen med ansvarsskyldiga och inkluderande institutioner - ett av FNs 17 globala mål för hållbar utveckling i låg- och medelinkomstländer.

Whereas electoral violence is incompatible with the notion of free and fair elections, the political consequences of such violence remain little understood.

Following an ethnomedical survey, traditional medicines and medicinal plants will be collected in Kenya and Tanzania. Their constituents will be isolated, and identified by NMR and MS analyses. The bioactivity of the extracts and the isolated constituents will be determined using cell-based assays. Standardized preparation techniques ensuring enrichment of the antiplasmodial, antitubercular or antibiotic and removal of the toxic ingredients will be established, along with the development of a methodology for rapid automated analysis of complex herbal extracts. These will be transferred to East Africa. The biochemical pathways targeted by the most promising bioactive substances will be identified by chemical genomics. Advanced NMR methods will be used to identify the binding mode of the substances to their protein targets to support their development into drugs. Besides achieving high scientific goals, the project aims the multidisciplinary training of African MSc and PhD students, and the establishment of a validation center for ethnomedicines at two African universities. It will support domestication of medicinal plants, facilitate the economic development of East Africa by strategic knowledge transfer and by supporting the local cottage industry, and increase patient safety. Moderna läkemedel är otillgängliga för de flesta människor i Öst- och Centralafrika p.g.a. deras höga pris. Traditionella naturläkemedel är därför ytterst viktiga för behandlingen av patienter i Afrika. Framställningen av dessa preparat, oftast extrakt av ett flertal växter, är inte välreglerad. Kontroller har visat att en stor del av naturläkemedlen som säljs i Afrika är kontaminerade med giftiga molekyler eller är förfalskade och därmed saknar effekt. Bristen på moderna läkemedel och opålitligheten i traditionella mediciner utgör ett stort problem för Afrika. Detta resulterar i onödigt lidande och stora ekonomiska förluster. Målet med projektet är att utvärdera Östafrikanska naturmediciner som används mot malaria, tuberkulos och bakteriella infektioner. Dessutom strävar vi efter att möta de största hälsoproblemen och de relaterade samhällsutmaningarna i området genom att rationellt använda afrikansk inhemsk kunskap och lokala naturresurser. Detta förväntas resultera i en ekonomiskt och ekologiskt hållbar lösning. Vi kommer att samla information om medicinska växter och dokumentera deras användning. Därefter kommer vi att plocka växterna, isolera deras bioaktiva molekyler och identifiera de med moderna kemiska metoder. Både växternas extrakt, som oftast utgör den traditionella medicinen, och innehållande molekyler som har isolerats, kommer att testas för antimalaria-, antituberkulos- och antimikrobiell aktivitet samt toxicitet. På detta sätt kommer enbart traditionella mediciner med en önskvärd effekt selekteras fram, samt deras framställning standardiseras för att nå maximal aktivitet med minimala biverkningar. Den lokala befolkningen kommer att informeras om de förbättrade framställningsmetoderna och varnas för farliga och overksamma preparat. Vi kommer att utveckla en ny metod som möjliggör snabb kvalitetskontroll av naturläkemedel. Vi planerar att initiera användningen av denna metod i Nairobi (Kenya) och i Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) för att öka patientsäkerheten. Ett mål med projektet är att lokalbefolkningen ska producera traditionella läkemedel av högre kvalitet. Detta kommer att gynna den lokala "stug-industrin" och därmed initiera en önskad ekonomisk utveckling för östra Afrika. För att stödja utvecklingen av nya moderna läkemedel mot malaria, tuberkulos och bakteriella infektioner, identifierar vi naturläkemedlens målmolekyler i vår kropp. Det här kommer även att bidra med nya substanser till svensk industriell läkemedelsutveckling. Under projektets tid kommer vi att överföra kunskap till Tanzania och Kenya genom att träna tanzaniska och kenyanska studenter och doktorander i moderna kemiska och biologiska forskningsmetoder vid Göteborgs Universitetet. Sommarkurser i kemi och biologi kommer också att ges vid universitetet i Nairobi och universitetet i Dar es Salaam. Sammanfattningsvis förväntas projektet att bevara inhemsk kunskap och bidra till en säker användning av traditionella medicinska växter.

These issues are also central foreign policy and development cooperation objectives of many Western democracies, including Sweden with the addition of development assistance goal 1. Hence, for academic as well as for policy purposes, there is need for comprehensive, nuanced, reliable, and detailed measures of human rights, civil liberties, political institutions, media, civil society, women's rights, different forms of oppression, and other aspects related to democracy. This basic research project will ensure that such necessary data is available for research for all 48 Least Developed Countries as well as for the 36 countries identified as development cooperation countries for Sweden. This constitutes indispensable basic research to make possible intricate and cutting-edge research on issues on political developments, human rights, gender equality, and freedom from oppression in developing nations: Over 350 indicators, as well as 43 indices ensuring annually updated data. The project would be located at the V-Dem Institute, University of Gothenburg thus drawing on the accumulated experience, the pre-existing infrastructure and protocols as well as the academic network of over 2,600 scholars and experts from over 170 countries, which significantly reduces risk and cuts down on many costs. Studiet av demokrati och demokratisering, politisk utveckling, mänskliga rättigheter, och jämlikhet är helt centrala sedan länge inom statsvetenskapen men får allt större betydning också inom ekonomi, globaliseringsstudier, sociologi, och historia. Sedan kalla krigets slut har dessutom dessa ämnen blivit föremål för framträdande målsättningar i många länder utrikespolitik och samarbetsavtal med utvecklingsländer. Detta gäller även för Sverige som t ex sedan 2013 har ett nytt utvecklingsmål (delmål 1): "Stärkt demokrati och jämställdhet, ökad respekt för mänskliga rättigheter och frihet från förtryck" (Skr. 2013/14:131). Det är således av yttersta vikt både för foskningsändamål som för policy- och praktiskt orienterad verksamhet att det finns fulltäckande, nyanserade, detaljrika, och pålitliga mätinstrument, som också tillåter jämförelser mellan länder och över tid, för olika aspekter av mänskliga rättigheter, civila samhället, media, politiska institutioner och processser, kvinnors rättigheter, olika former av repression, och för andra aspekter av demokrati. Målsättningen med detta grundforskningsprojekt är därför att samla in, analysera, processa, och göra tillgängliga för vidare forskning data för alla 48 minst utvecklade länder i världen ("Least Developed Countries", LDCs) liksom för samtliga 36 länder vilka Sverige har som utvecklingssamarbetspartners. Det är ett visst överlapp mellan de två kategorierna så i allt (minus microstater) handlar det om 64 länder totalt. För 26 av dem finns redan finansiering att utföra grundforskningen ifråga, och förevarande projekt inriktar sig därför på det 38 återstående länderna. Projektet utgör således helt avgörande grundforskning som kommer att möjliggöra avgörande forskningsframsteg i förståelsen av utvecklingen när det gäller politisk utveckling (och tillbakagång), mänskliga rättigheter, politisk och social jämlikhet, frihet från förtryck, och andra relaterade frågor som forskningen idag förgäves söker svar på, och områden där också det internationella samfundet inklusive svenska UD och Sida söker svar som kan vägleda utrikespolitik och utvecklingssamarbeten. Projektet bygger vidare på existerande Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) som genom mycket omfattande grundforskning har skapat en unik databas med fokus på demokrati som på fyra sätt är överlägsen existerande mått: ca 350 indikatorer och 43 index med relevans för olika sätt att definiera demokrati med data för 173 länder från 1900 till år 2012. Detta möjliggör en mycket mer nyanserad beskrivning av utvecklingen inom varje enskilt land samtidigt som databasen erbjuder jämförbarhet mellan länder och över tid. V-Dem erbjuder också fullständig transparens i mätmetoder och kodningsprocedurer vilka ligger i samhällsvetenskapernas absoluta framkant. Men data finns inte uppdaterad för LDCs och Sveriges samarbetsländer vilket kraftigt minskar användbarheten för studier av smatida och pågående processer i dessa länder där ofta mycket förändras på kort tid. Avsaknaden av uppdaterad data efter 2012 minskar också möjligheterna för använding i policyanalys och aktuell mätning av delmål 1. Med hjälp av forskningsbidrag från M&M Wallenbergsstiftelsen, Mo Ibrahim Foundation, och EU (EC/Decvo) finns finansiering för denna grundforskning för 26 av de 64 länderna i LDCs+svenska samarbetsländer. Detta projekt avser således att fylla tomrummet och och göra den grundforskning som krävs för att resterande 38 länders data ska uppdateras och vara aktuell, så att forskare på alla institutioner, organisationer, och över många ämnen som kommer att utföra vidare forskning och utvärdering med bästa möjliga villkor. Förslaget är att detta projekt härbärgeras av V-Dem institutet på Göteborgs universitet och att projektet använder och drar nytta av de redan utvecklade metoderna för datainsamling, aggergering i specialutvecklade Bayesianska "ordinal item respons theory-models", och kvalitetsprotokoll som ligger på absoluta forskningsfronten, vilka finns på V-Dem 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 V-Dem data set komplett tom 2020. No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2016-05868-1 Sweden The study of democracy, human rights, and (gender-)equality lies at the center of political science and has become increasingly important in economics and sociology. These issues are also central foreign policy and development cooperation objectives of many Western democracies, including Sweden with the addition of development assistance goal 1. Hence, for academic as well as for policy purposes, there is need for comprehensive, nuanced, reliable, and detailed measures of human rights, civil liberties, political institutions, media, civil society, women's rights, different forms of oppression, and other aspects related to democracy. This basic research project will ensure that such necessary data is available for research for all 48 Least Developed Countries as well as for the 36 countries identified as development cooperation countries for Sweden. This constitutes indispensable basic research to make possible intricate and cutting-edge research on issues on political developments, human rights, gender equality, and freedom from oppression in developing nations: Over 350 indicators, as well as 43 indices ensuring annually updated data.

Studier av den mänskliga hjärnan kvarstår som en av vår tids mest utmanande vetenskapliga uppgifter. Omfattningen av de bidrag som gjorts i och med framstegen inom hjärnforskning är enorma, de kliniska implikationerna inkluderade. Hjärnsjukdomar såsom demens, epilepsi, olika typer av huvudvärk, multipel skleros, Parkinsons sjukdom, stroke, Alzheimers sjukdom eller attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) anses av Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) vara bland de största hoten mot folkhälsan. De leder inte bara till reducerad livslängd utan inverkar också, på grund av sina förödande konsekvenser för mänskligt beteende och kognition, negativt på livskvaliteten. Tidig upptäckt av neurologiska sjukdomar kan avsevärt öka chanserna för framgångsrik behandling. En av de mest effektiva ickeinvasiva metoderna för att studera effekterna av läkemedel samt tidig diagnosticering av strukturella och funktionella hjärnförändringar på grund av exempelvis demens, Alzheimers sjukdom eller epilepsi är hjärnavbildning med klinisk teknologi såsom positronemissionstomografi (PET), funktionell magnetresonansavbildning (fMRI), electroencefalografi (EEG) samt magnetoencefalografi (MEG). EEG har erhållit särskild uppmärksamhet på grund av dess breda tillgänglighet, låga kostnad och relativt enkla användning. Den kraftigt ökande insamlingen av hjärnavbildningsdata och signaler motsvaras dock inte av samma framsteg vad gäller analysmetoderna, vilket reflekteras i de begränsade resultaten uppnådda i EEG-studier av biomarkörer. På samma vis finns förväntningar på att man med nya undersökande verktyg för att hantera stora volymer av högdimensionella hjärndata kan göra betydande framsteg inom forskningsområden som kognitiv neurovetenskap. Även om problemet med bristande utveckling av beräkningsresurser för att hantera det överhängande problemet med big data är världsomfattande, även bortom neuroinformatik, påverkar det särskilt länder med medel- eller lägre medelinkomst, där den observerade trenden är att investera de ganska knappa befintliga resurserna i att generera ny data snarare än att bygga en infrastruktur för att hantera dem och till fullo utnyttja deras potential. Vi ser framför oss att hjärnforskarkollektivet genom gemensam ansträngning och deltagande i det här projektinitiativet kommer att vara bättre förberedda inför det förestående problemet med stora hjärndata. Framförallt räknar vi med att bygga vidare på de erfarenheter och det arbete som utförs av KTH:s partner, under handledning av Dr Pawel Herman och Prof. Anders Lansner, på storskaliga mönsterigenkänningsmetoder som bygger på principer för statistisk inlärning och som hämtar inspiration från mekanismer för neural informationsbehandling i kortikala nätverk. Det föreslagna tillvägagångssättet är generiskt och tillåter hantering av olika typer av högdimensionell data förutsatt att tillräcklig beräkningskraft finns tillgänglig. Hittills har nätverksansatsen testats på PET, fMRI och EEG-datamängder. Detta projekt erbjuder en unik möjlighet till förfining av beräkningsinfrastrukturen och dess mer extensiva validering på betydande datamängder upptagna i olika laboratorier under olika förhållanden. Än viktigare är, som nämnts, att det kommer att bidra till att etablera ett långsiktigt samarbete med ukrainska och georgiska partner med målet att använda nya modellfria undersökande databehandlingsverktyg inom forskning och klinisk praxis samt främja datadriven analys av hjärnsignaler som ett komplement till konventionella hypotes(modell)drivna metoder.

Det föreslagna tillvägagångssättet är generiskt och tillåter hantering av olika typer av högdimensionell data förutsatt att tillräcklig beräkningskraft finns tillgänglig. Hittills har nätverksansatsen testats på PET, fMRI och EEG-datamängder. Detta projekt erbjuder en unik möjlighet till förfining av beräkningsinfrastrukturen och dess mer extensiva validering på betydande datamängder upptagna i olika laboratorier under olika förhållanden. Än viktigare är, som nämnts, att det kommer att bidra till att etablera ett långsiktigt samarbete med ukrainska och georgiska partner med målet att använda nya modellfria undersökande databehandlingsverktyg inom forskning och klinisk praxis samt främja datadriven analys av hjärnsignaler som ett komplement till konventionella hypotes(modell)drivna metoder. Vi tror att dessa insatser, stödda med partnerdiskussioner under frekventa besök och workshops, organiserade inom projektets räckvidd, kommer att underlätta övergången till en värld av allestädes närvarande big data som förlitar sig på datatekniker med hög genomströmning och som kommer att tillgängliggöra neuroinformatik i partnerländerna .

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. Den kunskap som projektet bidrar med kommer att vara av stor betydelse för de enskilda projktdeltagarna som alla, inom sina respektive forskningsområden, arbetar med att identifiera för lösningar på detta problem. Men projektet kommer också att ge ett viktigt bidrag till den pågående debatten om Medical Brain Drain och behovet av långsiktigt hållbara och rättvisa lösningar på en ojämlik tillgång till vård.

Det här projektet syftar till att undersöka de utmaningar gräsrotsinitiativ och-nätverk möter samt de utkomstpraktiker de genererar, för att förbättra återvinning och hämtning och hantering av hushållsavfall i informella områden i globala syds städer. Metodologiskt är projektet inspirerat av deltagande aktionsforskning genom en kombination av: a) en multipel fallstudie av sopletarinitiativ i Managua (Nicaragua), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), Buenos Aires (Argentina) São Paulo (Brasilien) och Kisumu (Kenya) baserat på intervjuer, observationer, workshops och dokumentstudier; b) gemensam kunskapsproduktion där regionala och globala sopletarnätverk utgör kunskaps-noder; c) en djupfallstudie av Kisumu, var kunskapen genererad från den multipla fallstudien integreras och d) internationella sopletar- och forskarseminarier. Teoretiskt bidrar projektet med att använda och utveckla en kombination av teorier om socio- och miljömässigt entreprenörskap, institutionellt entreprenörskap och resiliens-teori.

The World Health Organization estimates that 2.4 billion people worldwide lack access to basic sanitation facilities posing severe risks to public health and the environment. At the same time, biogeochemical flows of nitrogen and phosphorous have been pointed out as a critical planetary boundary that needs to be properly managed to assure a sustainable future. There is pressing need for innovations in the sanitation sector which improve nutrient-recovery and provide services for all. There is a growing number of nutrient-recovery technologies available, but a majority are still in the formative phase of development and not widely applied. This may be because implementing these solutions means rethinking not just the technical treatment process, but the collection system, user interactions and management organisations. Improving the capacity of our waste systems to recover valuable resource means transforming some of its core structures. The aim of this project is to explore opportunities for scaling-up alternative systems for nutrient-recovery from wastewater in the Ugandan context through 1) investigating the technical and market readiness of these systems, 2) studying the readiness of society to accept alternative systems, and 3) evaluating serious gaming as an innovative planning technique for opening transformation pathways within the sector. Hantering av den globala sanitetskrisen är en av de stora utmaningarna för vår generation. Världshälsoorganisationen uppskattar att 2,4 miljarder människor i världen saknar tillgång till en bra toalett. Dålig sanitet leder till allvarliga risker för människors hälsa genom smittspridning och orsakar övergödning av vattendrag genom utsläpp av näringsämnen. Experter har pekat ut storskalig övergödning som ett allvarlig hot mot en hållbar framtid på planeten och varnat för att vi behöver skarpare kontroll över flödena av kväve och fosfor. Det finns därför ett akut behov av innovationer inom sanitetssektorn som förbättrar återvinning av näring, t.ex. kväve och fosfor, och samtidigt ökar tillgängligheten av toaletter till de som saknar detta idag. Ett växande antal tekniker för näringsåtervinning finns tillgängliga, men en majoritet av dessa är fortfarande under utveckling och används idag inte i större skala. Detta kan bero på att genomförande av dessa lösningar kräver ett nytänkande, inte bara i den tekniska behandlingsprocessen utan också i insamlingssystemet, användarinteraktioner och förvaltningsorganisationer. Att förbättra avfallssystemet kapacitet att återvinna värdefulla resurser innebär en omvandling och utökning av några kärnstrukturer inom systemet. Fokus i detta forskningsprojekt är alternativa sanitetssystem som kan återvinna näringsämnen i Uganda, ett land där endast 29 % av befolkningen i städer har tillgång till en bra toalett. Alternativa sanitetssystem definieras som innovativa lösningar för hantering av mänskligt avfall som använder källsortering, eller liknande tekniker, för omvandling av näringsämnen till värdefulla produkter såsom protein, biomassa och gödsel. Projektet använder ett social-tekniskt systemperspektiv som omfattar teknik för insamling, transport och behandling av mänskligt avfall, liksom användarna av systemet och de organisationer som ansvarar för systemets förvaltning. Projektet syftar till att öka kunskapen om upplevda risker med dessa system och hur man integrerar sådana innovationer i befintliga avloppssystem. Projektet är uppbyggt omkring tre faser. Först kommer forskarna kartlägga vilka typer av näringsåtervinningstekniker som finns tillgängliga i urbana områden i Uganda och bedöma deras teknik- och marknadsutveckling. Denna studie undersöker möjligheterna för dessa system att minska sjukdomsspridning, miljöpåverkan, och deras marknadspotential, inklusive potential för urbana jordbruk att ta emot återvunnit produkter. Andra fasen i projektet undersöker den sociala acceptansen av alternativa avloppssystem. Detta kommer att ske genom intervjuer, gruppdiskussioner och användning av ett "innovationsspel". 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 strukturer för att hantera mänskligt avfall, 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 Uganda för att förankra resultat i verkligheten. Projektresultaten kommer att bedöma potentialen av alternativa näringsåtervinningssystem i kommuner i Uganda att ge fördelar för folkhälsan och miljön. Denna kunskap kommer att utvidga vår arsenal av lösningar för att ta itu med sanitetskrisen. Samtidigt utvecklar projektet praktiska verktyg och metoder för planering och beslutsfattande som kan användas för att hantera de nödvändiga omvandlingarna i avfallshanteringen. Resultat från projektet kommer att publiceras i rapporter, vetenskapliga artiklar och populärvetenskapliga artiklar. Forskarna kommer också att använda etablerade professionella nätverk för spridning av kunskapen.

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, Vietnam, 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, Vietnam, 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.

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.

Top-down policies designed to reduce flood risk in informal settlements have to date been largely unsuccessful, yet many of the vulnerabilities faced by slum-dwellers cannot be addressed by local action alone. Many observers posit that a fundamentally important part of the solution is to integrate government and community resilience initiatives, an approach we call “Community-Responsive Adaptation”. However, real-world examples of this type of integration are scarce, and have not been systematically evaluated, either in terms of cost, or impact. In this study, we partner with an award-winning non-governmental organization, Kounkuey Design Initiative, and with slum residents and local government, to co-design, build and evaluate three integrated adaptation projects in Kibera, Nairobi. To evaluate the effects of the projects, we will carry out a 6-wave household survey across 1500 households in high flood-risk zones, and compare flood damages and other measures of welfare in households with the same baseline flood risk in treatment sites, and at comparable control sites. Finally, we will collect and analyze qualitative data to help understand the mechanisms behind success or failure of the package of interventions. En stor och växande del av världens befolkning lever i så kallade slumområden. I Afrika söder om Sahara förväntas antalet invånare i städer tredubblas de nästkommande 25 åren och tre fjärdedelar av de nya invånarna förväntas bo i slumliknande förhållanden. I många städer utvecklas slumområden längst med floder och andra vattendrag eftersom dessa platser ofta är allmän mark och öppna ytor som är relativt lätta att ta i anspråk. I förlängningen innebär det att boende i dessa områden, ofta de mest utsatta och fattigaste invånarna, också är de som i störst utsträckning drabbads av översvämningar. Den effekten har blivit påtagligare av två orsaker; för det första minskar mängden vatten som kan absorberas direkt i marken i takt med att urbaniseringen i slumområdena fortgår – hårdgjorda ytor leder till att vattnet istället måste röra sig på markytan. Dessutom har klimatförändringarna lett till en ökad frekvens av kraftiga regn. Tidigare försök att minska översvämningsriskerna i de mest utsatta områdena har i stor utsträckning varit misslyckade. De har också, historiskt sett, utformats utan förankring hos de boende. Ansträngningar för att omlokalisera invånare i riskzoner har lett till konflikter medan implementering av storskalig infrastruktur, för att minska översvämningsriskerna, har varit alltför kostsam att genomföra. Dock har boende i slumområden gjort lokala ansträngningar för att utstå och anpassa sig till översvämningsriskerna, exempelvis genom att göra sina bostäder mer vattentäta. De enskilda ansträngningarna är begränsade till följd av bristande resurser och kunskap. Något som försvårar ytterligare är att de lokala initiativen ofta sker utan samordning med det kommunala styret. Det finns dock lyckade exempel på lokala initiativ som kan minska sårbarheten och ge ökad social och ekonomisk trygghet för de boende, exempelvis gemensam rensning av lokala avlopp- och dräneringssystem, kooperativ avfallshantering och lån- och sparargrupper.

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. Det finns ett behov att genomföra tvärvetenskaplig forskning i olika länder på hur migrations effekter på hälsan hos invandrare. Det finns också ett behov av att utveckla lösningar för migranternas hälsa utmaningar och i utmaningar till hälso- och sjukvård. Denna forskning sammanför tre länder: Sverige, Indien och Ukraina, med olika migrationsprofiler, som värdländer för internationella flyktingar, intern ekonomisk säsongs cyklisk migration och internflyktingar på grund av konflikten. Dessa tre länder och deras institutioner kommer att skapa ett nätverk som kommer att bidra till att utveckla tidiga karriär och doktorand kapacitet och utveckla samarbetsforskningsförslag som kommer att skapa forskningskapaciteten i de länder och stödinstitutioner internationalisering.

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. Det finns ett behov att genomföra tvärvetenskaplig forskning i olika länder på hur migrations effekter på hälsan hos invandrare. Det finns också ett behov av att utveckla lösningar för migranternas hälsa utmaningar och i utmaningar till hälso- och sjukvård.

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. Utöver de nya forskningsrön som detta projekt kommer resultera i kommer projektet också att bidra till ökad kapacitet i laboratorier i de tre deltagande länderna, samt till framtida starkare forskningsansökningar från regionen.

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 Viet Nam från grannländerna.Detta projekt fokuserar på de tre grannländerna Viet Nam, Kambodja och Lao People's Democratic Republic 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. Utöver de nya forskningsrön som detta projekt kommer resultera i kommer projektet också att bidra till ökad kapacitet i laboratorier i de tre deltagande länderna, samt till framtida starkare forskningsansökningar från regionen.

Seagrass beds are abundant marine plant assemblages in coastal areas, that are intensely fished especially by those men and women with the least resources. Seagrasses therefore constitute a key component for food security. Yet, there is still a low level of formal and scientific expertise on seagrasses in the Indo-Pacific. IPSN aims to help build this much-needed expertise, and thereby conserve seagrasses and increase the sustainability of seagrass resource use.The research to be conducted within IPSN will focus on: 1) ecological field surveys to better understand seagrass and associated fauna; 2) surveys of landed and marketed fish catches to better understand the contribution of seagrass small-scale fisheries; and 3) socio-economic household surveys to better understand the use of and dependence on seagrass-associated resources. The data will be analysed on a regional scale to statistically assess the linkages among marine biodiversity, ecosystem services and poverty, across gradients in environmental and socio-economic conditions in the Indo-Pacific. The findings will be used to advance seagrass science and provide management recommendations for poverty alleviation in one of the most data poor environments globally. I detta projekt kommer vi att bygga upp ett nätverk av forskare och förvaltare från flera länder i Indiska Oceanen och västra Stilla Havet kallat Indo-Pacific Seagrass Network (ISPN). Tillsammans kommer vi samla in data om sjögräsängar och fiske för att undersöka länkarna mellan marin biologisk mångfald, ekosystemtjänster och fattigdom. Målet är att kunna ge bättre råd för att skapa en hållbar kustmiljö och ett mer tåligt samhälle, med högre kapacitet att hantera olika typer av framtida störningar.Sjögräs är vanligt förekommande marina blomväxter som bildar stora undervattens-ängar i grunda kustområden. Sjögräsängar förser människor med många viktiga varor och tjänster, t.ex. fisk och skaldjur. För många, både män och kvinnor, är fisket i kustnära sjögräsängar mycket viktigt för att få ihop mat och pengar för dagen. I takt med ökad exploatering har dock utbredningen av sjögräs minskat drastiskt runt om i världen. De många olika hoten mot sjögräs, som till exempel överfiske, samt att det fortfarande saknas mycket kunskap om sjögräsekosystem, är en utmaning för effektiv förvaltning. I den Indiska Oceanen och Stilla havet är det fortfarande få forskare och förvaltare som arbetar med sjögräs, och sjögräs är väldigt sällan inkluderade i förvaltningsplaner. För att förbättra denna situation behövs det fler forskare och förvaltare som förstår betydelsen av sjögräs i allmänhet, och för småskaligt fiske i synnerhet.Vi som står bakom detta projekt har under många år arbetat med forskning kring sjögräsängar och sjögräsfiske i Indiska oceanen och Stilla havet, och vi ser ett stort behov av att stödja och stärka kapaciteten hos speciellt unga forskare och förvaltare. Vi tror nu att detta sjögräsnätverk kommer att engagera fler forskare och förvaltare i sjögräsforskning, öka förståelsen för sjögräs och sjögräsfiske, samt skapa en ökad förståelse på lokal men också på en regional och global skala. Vi kommer även fokusera på att stärka samarbetet och öka kunskapsutbytet mellan länder inom nätverket och regionen.Inom nätverket kommer vi tillsammans att genomföra en komparativ studie med identisk datainsamling på många platser. Syftet är att öka vår förståelse av vilka faktorer som generellt strukturerar sjögräsekosystem och sjögräsfiske, och då speciellt länkarna mellan graden av biologisk mångfald, ekosystemtjänster och fattigdom.Den forskning vi avser att bedriva inom nätverket är:Ekologiska studier av sjögräs, associerade djur och alger, genom att t.ex. undersöka vilka sjögräsarter som finns, var och hur de växer samt vilka djur (t.ex. fisk och musslor) som lever i sjögräset.Intervjua fiskare, både män och kvinnor, och undersöka fiskefångster från sjögräsområden om vilka fångster som säljs på marknader och vilka som används inom hushållet.Genomföra intervjuer i hushåll för att öka förståelsen om till vilken grad människors välbefinnande, t.ex. tillgång till mat, inkomst och arbete, är beroende av sjögräs och dithörande djur.För att kunna genomföra studien kommer vi att använda standardiserad utrustning och gemensamma protokoll, detaljerade manualer och instruktionsvideos. Vi avser också att ge möjlighet till deltagande i workshops där man får lära sig alla forskningsmetoder inom projektet.  Vi kommer sedan sammanställa och analysera insamlad data både på lokal och regional nivå, för ömsesidig gagn inom projektet. Detta kommer att öka kunskapen om både sjögräsängarnas betydelse för människan på lokal, nationell och regional nivå, men också ge en ökad förståelsen om länkarna mellan marin biodiversitet, ekosystemtjänster och fattigdom i mer generella termer.

For this reason research on sponges is currently undeveloped in Sri Lanka. The 3-year collaborative project we propose to build between scientists at University of Colombo and Uppsala University will investigate the marine sponge biodiversity of Sri Lanka and identify bioactive sponge natural products against infectious diseases and cancer cell lines. The aims of this project are to 1) transfer our knowledge on sponge sytematics to Sri Lankan students/researchers in order to help them assess the Sri Lankan sponge biodiversity and 2) develop a protocol to study sponge natural product and genetic diversity. We believe both of these aims will unlock the potential of Sri Lankan sponges towards bioactivity assays and drug discovery. To achieve this we will conduct a multidisciplinary collaborative project combining our mutual expertise in pharmacognosy, chemistry, structure elucidation, systematics and molecular biology. This project will fill the knowledge gap on Sri Lankan sponge biodiversity in order to spur high-standard sponge research in this country. The findings will contribute to Sri Lankan education, marine biodiversity conservation and economic development but also to the Swedish/Sri Lankan drug discovery program. Biodiversitet och kemodiversitet hos Sri Lankas marina svampdjur. En möjlighet att utforska nya farmakologiska användningsområden.Marina svampdjur är de första djuren som dök upp på jorden för över 700 miljoner år sedan. Svampdjuren har en nyckelposition i marina ekosystem, speciellt i tropiska vatten där de utgör en betydande andel av djurlivet bland korallrev, mangroveträsk och laguner. Svampdjur är en av de mest mångfaldsrika djurgrupperna på havsbotten. Där lever de fixerade, likt koraller och är därför beroende av kemiska ämnen för sin kommunikation, tävlan med andra arter och försvar mot predatorer. Detta gör svampdjuren till en av de rikaste källorna av marina substanser med enorm bioteknologisk och farmaceutisk potential. Omkring hälften av alla läkemedel vi använder idag härstammar från naturen. När det gäller substanser som används mot infektionssjukdomar och mot cancer är andelen ännu större. Den repertoar av kemiska substanser som produceras av svampdjur kan vara användbar i utvecklingen av cancerläkemedel, eller för att förebygga bakteriella infektioner i människa. Svampdjur är dock relativt svåra att identifiera vilket har gjort att svampdjursforskningen i världen idag är underutvecklad. Detta medför att hantering och bevarande av svampdjur är svårt, vilket också försvårar sökandet efter nya läkemedel. Det nuvarande projektet ämnar att i detalj undersöka, dokumentera och studera biodiversiteten hos marina svampdjur från Sri Lanka, en mångfald som hittills är outforskad med avseende på dess naturprodukter.Uppgifter från brittisk kolonialtid, tidigt 1900-tal, visar att Sri Lanka har en av de rikaste svampdjursfaunorna i indiska oceanen. Sedan dess har ingen vidare undersökt biodiversiteten hos svampdjur i Sri Lankas grunda vatten, än mindre utforskat de kemiska substanser som produceras. I det här projektet kommer forskare från Uppsala universitet och University of Colombo med gemensamma ansträngningar undersöka svampdjursfaunan på Sri Lanka. Vi kommer genomföra dykningar i de grunda vattnen kring Sri Lanka och ta prover från de vanligaste svampdjursarterna i korallrev, mangroveträsk och laguner. Vi kommer därefter isolera och identifiera specifika substansgrupper (främst steroler och peptider) från dessa prover. Vart ämne eller extrakt kommer testas för att avgöra huruvida de är aktiva mot humana patogener och/eller cancerceller. Genetiska data från dessa svampdjur kommer också insamlas, i syfte att vara en hjälp i identifieringen av nya arter men också för att kunna förutsäga förekomsten av fler ämnen. Det huvudsakliga målet är att upptäcka och karaktärisera nya ämnen med effekt mot cancer eller bakterier, genom användandet av båda parters kunskap och expertis. Slutligen kommer detta gemensamma projekt stödja och stärka ett långtidsforskningssamarbete mellan Sverige och Sri Lanka, vilket kommer bidra till ländernas vetenskapliga utveckling.

This project will fill the knowledge gap on Sri Lankan sponge biodiversity in order to spur high-standard sponge research in this country. The findings will contribute to Sri Lankan education, marine biodiversity conservation and economic development but also to the Swedish/Sri Lankan drug discovery program. Biodiversitet och kemodiversitet hos Sri Lankas marina svampdjur. En möjlighet att utforska nya farmakologiska användningsområden.Marina svampdjur är de första djuren som dök upp på jorden för över 700 miljoner år sedan. Svampdjuren har en nyckelposition i marina ekosystem, speciellt i tropiska vatten där de utgör en betydande andel av djurlivet bland korallrev, mangroveträsk och laguner. Svampdjur är en av de mest mångfaldsrika djurgrupperna på havsbotten. Där lever de fixerade, likt koraller och är därför beroende av kemiska ämnen för sin kommunikation, tävlan med andra arter och försvar mot predatorer. Detta gör svampdjuren till en av de rikaste källorna av marina substanser med enorm bioteknologisk och farmaceutisk potential. Omkring hälften av alla läkemedel vi använder idag härstammar från naturen. När det gäller substanser som används mot infektionssjukdomar och mot cancer är andelen ännu större. Den repertoar av kemiska substanser som produceras av svampdjur kan vara användbar i utvecklingen av cancerläkemedel, eller för att förebygga bakteriella infektioner i människa. Svampdjur är dock relativt svåra att identifiera vilket har gjort att svampdjursforskningen i världen idag är underutvecklad. Detta medför att hantering och bevarande av svampdjur är svårt, vilket också försvårar sökandet efter nya läkemedel. Det nuvarande projektet ämnar att i detalj undersöka, dokumentera och studera biodiversiteten hos marina svampdjur från Sri Lanka, en mångfald som hittills är outforskad med avseende på dess naturprodukter.Uppgifter från brittisk kolonialtid, tidigt 1900-tal, visar att Sri Lanka har en av de rikaste svampdjursfaunorna i indiska oceanen. Sedan dess har ingen vidare undersökt biodiversiteten hos svampdjur i Sri Lankas grunda vatten, än mindre utforskat de kemiska substanser som produceras. I det här projektet kommer forskare från Uppsala universitet och University of Colombo med gemensamma ansträngningar undersöka svampdjursfaunan på Sri Lanka. Vi kommer genomföra dykningar i de grunda vattnen kring Sri Lanka och ta prover från de vanligaste svampdjursarterna i korallrev, mangroveträsk och laguner. Vi kommer därefter isolera och identifiera specifika substansgrupper (främst steroler och peptider) från dessa prover. Vart ämne eller extrakt kommer testas för att avgöra huruvida de är aktiva mot humana patogener och/eller cancerceller. Genetiska data från dessa svampdjur kommer också insamlas, i syfte att vara en hjälp i identifieringen av nya arter men också för att kunna förutsäga förekomsten av fler ämnen. Det huvudsakliga målet är att upptäcka och karaktärisera nya ämnen med effekt mot cancer eller bakterier, genom användandet av båda parters kunskap och expertis. Slutligen kommer detta gemensamma projekt stödja och stärka ett långtidsforskningssamarbete mellan Sverige och Sri Lanka, vilket kommer bidra till ländernas vetenskapliga utveckling.

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).

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).

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.

A remarkable solution to this water shortage has been demonstrated by an engineer Chewang Norphel through the construction of artificial glaciers in lower altitudes which melt early in the spring when the water shortage is most critical, thus giving some water security to the population. An improved version of this concept in the form of ice cones by another engineer Sonam Wangchuk is still in the initial project stage and requires collaborations, funding, technological support, and continuous prototype improvements to ensure a better spatio-temporal coverage with the goal of providing sustainable water security to entire Ladakh region. In the proposed project, as a team of trained glaciologists, hydrologists, remote sensing specialists, atmospheric scientists, and engineers, our focus will be to address the practical issues in developing the artificial glaciers, make them more sustainable, perform site-suitability analyses, and impart technology transfer through community-based training for managing and harvesting water from them. In the first two years we will study snow physical properties in lab and in situ, and identify suitable sites through geospatial modeling to install more glaciers. In the 3rd year, we will collaborate with the local authorities to make it a community-driven approach generating water security and employment. Hållbar vattentillförsel genom utveckling av artificiella Glaciärer (SWASDAG) är ett samarbete mellan svenska och indiska forskare för att säkerställa vattentillförsel för samhällen i de högt belägna ökenområdena i Ladakh distriktet i Indien. Huvudsyftet med SWASDAG är att komplettera de pågående vattenförvaltningsinsatserna genom installation av konstgjorda glaciärer utförda av Ice Stupa teamet (http://icestupa.org/about) som leds av Rolex pristagaren Sonam Wangchuk. De artificiella glaciärerna eller is konerna skapas under vintermånaderna med hjälp av smältvatten från de naturliga glaciärerna som ligger på högre höjd. Placeringen av strukturerna väljs på ett sådant sätt att de under vårens torra månader smälter och ger vatten till bönderna och befolkningen. Med denna metod kan vattentillförseln säkerställas året om och växtsäsongen för jordbruket förlängas vilket i sin tur leder till garanterad livsmedelsförsörjning och fattigdomsbekämpning i området. Men de pågående ansträngningarna inbär också utmaningar när det gäller samarbeten, finansiering, teknisk support, och ständiga förbättringar av prototyper för att säkerställa en bättre spatiotemporal täckning. Där det stora målet är att ge en hållbar vattentillförsel till hela Ladakh region. Antalet funktionella artificiella glaciärer är fortfarande mycket begränsad och en stor del av befolkningen i Ladakh kämpar fortfarande med svår vattenbrist. Identifiering av mer lämpliga platser baserat på terräng, meteorologi, och föroreningsnivåerna för installation av dessa strukturer är den primära utmaningen. En annan utmaning är att studera isen och snöns fysikaliska egenskaper och hur de varierar med temperatur och luftfuktighet samt att hitta tekniska lösningar för att göra de konstgjorda glaciärerna hållbarare och därmed förlänga odlingssäsongen och skördeproduktivitet i Ladakh regionen.Personalen i SWASDAG kommer bestå av ett team av glaciologer, hydrologer, fjärranalys specialister, atmosfärforskare och ingenjörer. Under de första två åren kommer personalen att fokusera på att studera is och snös fysikaliska egenskaper i laboratoriemiljö och in situ samt identifiera lämpliga platser genom geospatial modellering för att installera fler glaciärer. Under det tredje året kommer projektet att samarbeta med de lokala myndigheterna genom en community-driven strategi för att garantera vattentillförsel och sysselsättning. Syftet med SWASDAG är att främja vattentillförseln och hållbar utveckling i den kalla torra öknen i Ladakh, Indien genom vetenskapliga undersökningar som leder till: (i) Identifiering och bedömning av troliga hotspots för artificiell glaciär installation; och (ii) policyförslag till myndigheter och forskargrupper för att genomföra forskningsresultaten. Vi planerar att nå dessa syften genom följande forskningsmål:Installera klimatstationer på olika höjder för att uppskatta säsongsvariationer i temperatur, luftfuktighet och föroreningsnivåer.Utföra högupplöst geospatiala terrängmodellering för att hitta lämplighet placeringar baserat på säsongsvariationer för att installation av fler artificiella glaciärer.Studera is och snös fysikaliska egenskaper i laboratoriet och in situ för att kunna ge förslag på utformning av de artificiella glaciärerna för att ge en bättre hållbarhet.Organisera gemensamma seminarier och workshops för kapacitetsuppbyggnad och samhällsmedvetenhet om säkerställning av vattentillförsel.För att utforma och föreslå strategier för hållbart genomförande av forskningsresultaten.SWASDAG är relevant för de övergripande målen för svenskt internationellt bistånd; nämligen att skapa förutsättningar för bättre levnadsvillkor för människor som lever i fattigdom och förtryck, och därigenom bidra till en rättvis och hållbar global utveckling.

Kambodja, med cirka 15 miljoner människor, har en lång historia av krig och konflikter. Miljontals människor dog på grund av svält, sjukdom och avrättningar under Khmer Rouge styre på 1970-talet. Även om Kambodja under de senaste två decennierna har sett en snabb ekonomisk utveckling är det fortfarande ett av de fattigaste länderna i regionen. Sociala och ekonomiska villkor är kopplade till mental hälsa. Studier har visat en hög prevalens av många av de vanligaste psykiska diagnoserna samt en hög förekomst av självmord. Det finns en mycket begränsad kapacitet för att behandla psykiska sjukdomar i landet.Situationen för fångar i Kambodja är ännu mer besvärlig. Antalet fångar i Kambodjas har ökat med mer än 20% under 2016 vilket orsakar allvarliga utmaningar i samband med överbeläggning. Denna situation och de begränsade resurser som finns tillgängliga för fängelserna komplicerar tillgången av till någon form av rehabiliteringsprogram. Tillgången till hälso- och sjukvård och i synnerhet till vård för psykisk ohälsa är mycket begränsad. Det finns för närvarande inga program för mental hälsa i de kambodjanska fängelser. Det psykiska hälsotillståndet hos fångarna är därför okänt.Caritas Kambodja, en lokal icke-statlig organisation, har arbetat i fängelser i Kambodja sedan 2007. De senaste två åren har de inlett kontakter med fängelser för att diskutera hur man kan förbättra den mentala hälsan och hälsovården i fängelserna, särskilt bland ungdomar.Det övergripande syftet med forskningssamarbetet är att förbättra den mentala hälsan hos unga intagna och för att stärka hälso- och sjukvården inom fängelserna i Kambodja. Detta kommer att ske genom att utveckla ett samarbete mellan forskare vid Caritas-Center för barns och ungdomars psykiska hälsa (CCAMH) i Phnom Penh och enheten för Epidemiologi och Global Hälsa (EpiGH) vid Umeå universitet. Specifika mål med forskningen inkluderar:1) Studie av förekomsten och mönstret av psykisk ohälsa, självmordsbeteende och livskunskap bland unga fångar i Kambodja;2) Utvärdering av effekten av livskunskap (Life Skills) utbildning för att främja mental hälsa och social kompetens bland unga fångar;3) Utveckling av en plan för att stärka den psykiska hälso- och sjukvården i utvalda fängelser.Specifica mål för kapacitetsuppbyggnad och samarbete:1) Att identifiera konceptuella och metodologiska ansatser för att utforska främjande av mental hälsa bland fångar och stärka strukturer för vård i fängelser, med fokus på mental hälsa hos ungdomar;2) Att bygga individuell och institutionell kapacitet för att stärka genomförandet av den forskning som står i fokus.Studierna kommer att bedrivas i sex fängelser från olika delar av landet, som valts på grund av Caritas-Kambodja tidigare samarbeten.För att bedöma förekomsten av psykisk hälsa kommer en studie bland alla unga fångar 15-24 år i de sex fängelserna genomföras. Tre specifika verktyg för att samla information om känslomässiga och beteendemässiga symptom, mentala färdigheter och självmordsbeteende kommer att användas. Efter denna grundläggande studie kommer en intervention, ” Life Skills utbildning”, genomföras för att främja en ungdomars utveckling i tre av fängelserna. Effekterna av interventionen kommer att mätas efter dess slut och sex månader senare. Workshops med unga intagna, vårdpersonal och tjänstemän från fängelser kommer att genomföras för att utveckla den hälso och sjukvården för mental hälsa anpassat till fängelser.För att uppnå syftet med kapacitetsuppbyggnad och samarbete kommer ett utbytesprogram mellan forskare vid båda institutionerna utföras. Kurser och workshops kommer att utvecklas för att utbyta kunskaper och erfarenheter i de båda länderna.Den föreslagna forskningssamarbete kommer att belysa hälsosituationen bland ungdomar i Kambodjas fängelser, ge röst åt deras behov och skapa ett utrymme för dialog med fängelsemyndigheterna som syftar till att förbättra den mentala hälsan och hälsovården i fängelserna.

Among the commercially important species heavily affected by virus infections is the tasar silkmoth, Antheraea mylitta, which is yearly harvested in India by thousands of tons. Therefore, the aim of this project is to analyze the tasar silkmoth anti-viral defense in general exploring signal pathways and proteins active in the response. Candidate genes will be analyzed with knockdown using RNA interference (RNAi). We also want to compare a newly described iflavirus found in the Chinese oak silkmoth, ApIV with a similar virus in A. mylitta.Wealth in India is unevenly distributed and the farmers engaged in silkworm production (sericulture) are typically poor. The annual income from sericulture is about 10 kSEK for a sericulture farmer, accounting for 60% of the total revenue. Virus infections are abundant, normally ending up in losses of about 10-20%, but sometimes as much as 80%, having major implications on family income for these poor farmers who are dependent on the harvest of pupae. We will in this project merge the knowledge from three countries in Asia with long experience in silkmoth practice with knowledge on viruses and RNAi in Sweden so that we in the end have a good foundation for continuation of the research. Att förstå hur det immunologiska virusförsvaret fungerar hos den indiska eksilkesfjärilenDen globala produktionen av silke domineras av den japanska silkesfjärilen, Bombyx mori, och den indiska eksilkesfjärilen. Fattiga bönder engagerade i silkesproduktion från den indiska eksilkesfjärilen och 60 % av deras årsinkomst är beroende av silkesproduktionen. Dessvärre drabbas många eksilkesfjärilspuppor av infektioner med baculoviruset AmNPV, vilket i vanliga fall ger förluster på cirka 10-20 %, men ibland går så mycket som 80 % av pupporna förlorade, med stora konsekvenser för familjernas inkomst. Virussjukdomar förekommer framförallt i fjärilar, men lite är känt om deras antivirala immunsvar. Detta projekt syftar huvudsakligen till att förstå de mekanismer som är involverade i försvar mot baculovirus i den indiska eksilkesfjärilen. Eftersom den har ett fönster i puppskalet som gör att man kan titta in i puppan och se hur den mår, är det en utmärkt modell för studier av virusförsvar. För att undersöka det generella immunförsvaret mot baculovirusinfektion, och för att förstå om specifika anti-virala gener finns, har vi initierat ett projekt där vi samtidigt tittar på alla gener som påverkats av en virusinfektion. Utifrån de resultat som vi får kommer vi som en uppföljning analysera de olika genernas funktion. Detta görs med RNA-interferens, vilket är en metod att stänga av fjärilens produktion av proteiner genom att bryta med det budbärar-RNA som bildas. Kunskapen om RNA-inteferens finns framförallt hos den svenska samarbetspartnern, medan kunskapen om hantering av fjärilarna och hur man bäst genomför virusinfektioner i dem finns i Indien. Projektet omfattar därför två-vägs kunskapsöverföring och kräver utbyte av forskare. Slutresultatet är en förståelse för den indiska eksilkesfjärilens immunförsvar mot virusinfektioner och kan användas för att utveckla eksilkesfjärilar som är mindre känsliga för virusinfektion.

The recovery of energy from renewable sources such as solar or wind power has enormous potential to meet current and future energy needs and to lead to a better preservation of nature and the environment. To develop suitable energetic solutions for stationary applications, an efficient and low cost energy storage system is needed. Lithium-ion batteries with high energy density have long constituted effective solutions to meet these demands. However, lithium resources are geopolitically sensitive minerals and recent years have seen increasing the lithium carbonate cost. The abundance and low cost of sodium (Na) in the earth and the sea is a great advantage for replacing lithium in parts of the energy system. This project aims to develop new cheap and environmentally benign electrode materials for rechargeable Na-ion batteries, targeting sustainable raw materials abundandt in Morocco. Materials for all parts of the battery will be explored. This scientific output will be achieved using the experience and the complementarities of the two involved institutions, and carried out through visits of young Moroccan researchers (PhD students) to Uppsala University to perform advanced analysis on Na-ion battery materials synthesized in Morocco, as well workshops in both countries. Användningen av batterier växer idag explosionsartat. Det är framför allt det batterier som innehåller högst mängd lagrad energi per vikts- och volymstäthet som är på stark frammarsch: litium-jonbatterierna. Dessa har länge haft använts för bärbar elektronik – vilket också är en växande marknad – men börjar nu i stor skala implementeras i elektriska fordon och hybridfordon av olika slag. Man tror att den installerade kapaciteten för fordonsbatterier kommer att tiodubblas mellan 2015 och 2025 (och sedan mångdubblas igen till 2030!), vilket föranleder dagens satsningar på nya batterifabriker för litium-jon.Vid sidan av batterier för fordon behövs också allt mer energilagring i elnätet. Detta behov uppkommer av att allt mer el produceras lokalt, och av enheter som inte producerar ström kontinuerligt – t ex solceller. Även här är batterier ett ofta attraktivt sätt att lagra energi, och prognoser tyder på att den installerade lagringskapaciteten i nätet kommer behöva vara större än för fordon år 2030. Med denna expansion behövs att fler typer av batterimaterial och -kemier studeras och utvecklas, än bara de baserade på litium-jon. Tillgången på litium är trots allt begränsad, och kommersiellt brytbara resurser är lokaliserade till ett fåtal länder, vilket gör mineralerna geopolitiskt känsliga.I detta sammanhang är det lätt att förstå att intresset för att ersätta litium med natrium har vuxit betydligt. Natrium (Na) erbjuder dock mycket mer miljömässigt och ekonomiskt hållbara alternativ än litium (Li). Natrium är det fjärde mest vanligt förekommande grundämnet i jordskorpan och finns i stora och lätt utvunna mängder i havsvatten (hälften av atomerna i koksalt är natrium). Natrium påminner elektrokemiskt om litium, vilket gör att energitätheten i de färdiga cellerna blir fortsatt hög – om än kanske inte hög nog för fordon, så för storskalig lagring.Det finns dock en rad problem som först måste lösas med Na-batterier innan de kan börja tillverkas på stor skala. Här krävs mycket mer forskning, och inte minst måste en fundamental förståelse för de ingående processerna skapas. Det har visat sig att de kemiska reaktionerna i natriumbaserade batterier är långt ifrån analoga till de i litiumbaserade, och orsakerna till detta är långt ifrån klarlagda. Detta gör att Na-batteriernas livslängd är betydligt sämre. Man skall i detta sammanhang betänka att kemierna hos litium-jonbatteriet studerats och utvecklats under flera tiotals år av tusentals forskare, utan att vara fullständigt klarlagda. Detta är kemiskt komplexa system, och akademisk forskning kan bidra väsentligt.  Det är detta sammanhang som detta sökta projekt föreslås. Marocko är ett land rikt på mineraler, bland annat sådana som kan användas för Na-batterier. Här finns stora möjligheter för att utveckla lokalt avancerade material istället för att exportera mineraler till producenter i andra (mer industrialiserade) länder. Landet har också potential för ett mer hållbart energisystem. Den inom projektet verksamma marockanska gruppen har också mycket goda kunskaper och möjligheter till syntes av nya material, men saknar den krävande utrustning som behövs för karaktärisering av dessa: att studera materialens struktur, deras ytkemi, samt deras elektrokemiska funktionalitet i batterier. Uppsala har dock exakt det sistnämnda med tanke på att norra Europas största forskningsmiljö för batterier finns lokaliserad dit – och ett forskningssamarbete har därför uppenbara fördelar för båda parter. Gruppen i Marocko utvecklar nya avancerade material för Na-batterier, och gruppen i Uppsala studerar dessa och implementerar dem i prototypbatterier. De huvudsakliga målen för forskningen är att ta fram material för att förlänga cyklingstiden, dvs antalet cykler batteriet kan laddas upp och ut, samt att förbättra energitätheten, dvs hur mycket energi som lagras per vikts- och volymsenhet.

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.

Detta kombineras med ekologiska metoder som kommer att användas för att mäta betesmarkers produktivitet över säsonger.

In addition, we will perform a 3-year longitudinal follow up of our previously identified cohort of children with cerebral palsy and design, execute and evaluate goal directed interventions.

Trots FN konventioner och internationella överenskommelser så är verkligheten för de 100-200 miljoner barn som lever med funktionshinder hård.

De hålls ofta undangömda och lever i otillgängliga bostäder och samhällen med liten eller ingen tillgång till utbildning eller hälsovård. En minimal del av redan begränsade hälsovårdsresurser används till habilitering, och det är brist på kunnig habiliteringspersonal. De få resurser som finns används inte på ett effektivt sätt.De långsiktiga målen med vårt projekt som bedrivs i ett distrikt på landsorten i Uganda är att öka kunskapen om barn med funktionshinder och att utveckla och utvärdera olika behandlingsprogram som gör att barnen utvecklas, och att de och deras familjer inkluderas och blir delaktiga i samhället. I en nyligen genomförd befolkningsbaserad studie har vi funnit att det är mer än dubbelt så vanligt med CP i Uganda (5.8/1000) än i Sverige (2.1/1000). Att orsaken till CP är annorlunda (många fall av malaria hjärninfektioner och få fall för tidigt födda); att det är en ökad dödlighet framför all bland svårt skadade barn. Vi fann också att enbart 30% av barn i skolåldern gick i skola. I den nu planerade studien kommer vi att följa upp utveckling och dödlighet i denna grupp om 97 barn, och utveckla och pröva ett nytt, specialanpassat behandlingsprogram som inriktar sig på att öka barnens färdighet och mobilitet och framförallt åtgärder som gör att de inkluderas i olika samhällsaktiviteter, exempelvis skolan.I den andra delen av projektet kommer vi att använda den unika resurs som den demografiska  siten i Iganga innebär för att svara på frågan hur vanligt det är med någon form av funktionsnedsättning bland barn. På global nivå varierar beräkningen stort; mellan 100-250 miljoner. I Sverige och andra höginkomstländer vet vi att ca ett av tio barn har funktionsnedsättning men det finns inga tillförlitliga data från låginkomstländer (LMIC).

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. Förhoppningen är att en ny effektiv återvinningsprocess där kan gynna både miljö och ekonomi, eftersom ett ekonomiskt incitament att återvinna skapar en stark koppling mellan dessa bå 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 Environmental research General Environment Protection Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2017-05480-1 Sweden The aim of this project is to develop new methods for viable polymeric waste recycling in developing countries, through catalytic ester cleavage reactions.

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. Förhoppningen är att en ny effektiv återvinningsprocess där kan gynna både miljö och ekonomi, eftersom ett ekonomiskt incitament att återvinna skapar en stark koppling mellan dessa bå Sweden Lunds universitet The Swedish Research Council Lunds universitet 12.5 - By 2030, substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling and reuse. 12.5 - Till 2030 väsentligt minska mängden avfall genom åtgärder för att förebygga, minska, återanvända och återvinna avfall.

Sjukdomsutbrott hos människor och djur riskerar fattiga familjers försörjning på samma sätt som jordbävningar, torka, översvämning och militära konflikter. För fattiga familjer blir effekterna av djursjukdomar speciellt kännbara då djuren förutom att förse familjen med mat, dragkraft och bränsle också fungerar som skyddsnät och kapitalreserv för svåra tider. Djursjukdomar hindrar på så vis fattiga familjer från att lämna fattigdom och kan också mycket snabbt vända hushållens positiva ekonomiska utveckling till en nedåtgående spiral. För många av de sjukdomar som hotar liv och försörjningsmöjligheter för fattiga människor är spridningssätt och bekämpningsmöjligheter väl kända, men det blir alltmer tydligt att endast faktakunskaper inte är tillräckligt för att kunna kontrollera dessa sjukdomar. Detta visades till exempel  vid den senaste ebolaepidemin i Västafrika där spridningen inte upphörde förrän sociala aspekter och lokala sedvänjor blev en central del i bekämpningen.Grisproduktionen ökar i Afrika söder om Sahara och skulle kunna bidra till minskad fattigdom för många småbönder. Fler grisar i området har tyvärr också lett till ökad förekomst av afrikansk svinpest, en blödarfeber som drabbar grisar med nästan 100% dödlighet. Sjukdomen medför allvarliga socioekonomiska effekter för de människor vars grisar drabbas och dör.Det föreslagna projektet kommer genomföras i Uganda, ett låginkomstland i östra Afrika där en fjärdedel av befolkningen lever i fattigdom. Fattigdomen är både mer utbredd och djupare på landsbygden, där också de flesta grisarna finns. Afrikansk svinpest är ständigt förekommande i Uganda, och sjukdomen är väl studerad där. Mycket är känt om det virus som orsakar sjukdomen, hur det sprids och hur det kan bekämpas. Tidigare studier av forskargruppen har visat att denna kunskap till stor del också är väl spridd i värdekedjan för småskalig grisproduktion. Aktörer på alla nivåer känner till hur afrikansk svinpest sprids och hur spridningen kan kontrolleras. Däremot verkar det som att föreslagna kontrollåtgärder, som om de genomfördes full ut alltså skulle kunna hindra sjukdomens spridning och dess negativa effekter, till stor del inte genomförs. Studier av andra djursjukdomar i just Uganda har visat att många olika faktorer såsom fattigdom, sociala mönster och tillgång på veterinär infrastruktur, och inte främst kunskap om sjukdomen, påverkar valet av kontrollåtgärder vid utbrott av smittsamma djursjukdomar.Syftet med det föreslagna projektet är att studera hur redan välkända kontrollmetoder för afrikansk svinpest effektivt och hållbart kan genomföras i praktiken i de lokala sammanhangen, genom att fördjupa kunskapen om vilka faktorer som påverkar fattiga människors val avseende sjukdomskontroll. Det föreslagna tvärvetenskapliga projektet kommer kombinera metoder från deltagardriven forskning och veterinär epidemiologi med syfte att gå från datainsamling till förstärkning av befolkningens egen förmåga att kontrollera allvarliga djursjukdomar som hotar livsmedelstryggheten i låginkomstländer. Stor vikt kommer att läggas vid deltagarnas egna engagemang i kontrollen, och just aspekten av aktivt deltagande och eget ägarskap kommer studeras särskilt. Ett mål med projektet är att utvärdera hur genomförandet av kontrollåtgärder påverkas när deltagarnas ägarskap av sjukdomskontrollen stimuleras.

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.

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.

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.

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. Det utgör en unik möjlighet att utbilda lokalbefolkningen för att på sikt öka avkastningen av viktiga grödor som sorghum och  vete i SSA på ett miljövänligt och ekologiskt hållbart sätt.

In consequence of the economic crisis, many Portuguese have migrated to the former colony of Mozambique. This project analyses this case of North-South postcolonial migration and its potential effects for development. The overall aim is to explore the exchange of knowledge, skills and experiences between Portuguese and Mozambicans who work together, and inquire into how emotions shaped by the postcolonial encounter influence this exchange. By focusing on a two-way transfer of knowledge, the project considers both capacity development among Mozambicans and integration processes among the Portuguese.The project will be carried out 2018-2020 by a multi-disciplinary team. The main method of data collection will be semi-structured interviews carried out with 30 Portuguese migrants and 30 Mozambicans working together with these migrants.The project aim to deliver the following new perspectives and data: a) an exploration of North-South labour migration, which is emerging and under-studied migratory trend, b) a novel analysis of the development potential of North-South migration, with a special emphasis on exchange of knowledge, c)  a new approach to integration processes d) a postcolonial reading based on concrete empirical data, which some critics argue is lacking in postcolonial studies, e) qualitative data on the recent Portuguese migration to Mozambique. År 2008 slog finanskrisen till i Portugal. Drastiska lönesänkningar, utbredd arbetslöshet och en djup osäkerhet inför framtiden drabbade befolkningen, och en långvarig recession bröt ut. I kölvattnet av denna utveckling har många portugiser migrerat till landets forna kolonier i Södra Afrika i jakt på arbete och en stabil inkomst. Inledningsvis attraherade Angola merparten av de portugisiska migranterna, men på grund av försämrade förhållanden i Angola har många portugiser under de senaste åren istället begett sig till Moçambique. Denna typ av arbetskraftsmigration representerar ett nytt historiskt kapitel i relationerna mellan Europa och Afrika.Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka det kunskapsutbyte som äger rum mellan portugisiska migranter i Mocambique och deras moçambikiska ”värdar”. Projektet fokuserar på utbyte av kunskaper, färdigheter och erfarenheter mellan portugiser och moçambikier som arbetar tillsammans på samma arbetsplatser. Genom att studera det ömsesidiga kunskapsutbytet mellan dessa två grupper avser projektet att utforska 1) i vilken mån detta utbyte bidrar till kapacitetsutveckling bland moçambikier, 2) i vilken mån detta utbyte bidrar till bättre integration av portugiserna. Många portugisiska migranter har antingen startat mindre företag eller arbetar som lärare på olika nivåer i det moçambikiska utbildningsystemet. Samtidigt pekar den moçambikiska staten ut satsningar på entreprenörskap och utbildning som centralt för landets utveckling. Mot bakgrund av detta avser projektet att särskilt fördjupa sig i kapacitetsutveckling kring småföretagande och pedagogik.Syftet är emellertid inte att studera en enkelriktad överföring av kunskaper från portugiser till moçambikier. Liksom för andra migranter förutsätter en lyckad integration av portugiserna att de är villiga att lära sig om sociala, kulturella och politiska förhållanden i destinationslandet och på arbetsplatsen. Projektet avser därför också att följa vilka kunskaper, färdigheter och erfarenheter som moçambikier försöker överföra till sina portugisiska kollegor, och hur de tar emot dessa. Genom att studera integration av europeiska migranter i en afrikansk kontext avser projektet också belysa några av de stereotypa föreställningar som ibland förekommer i traditionell integrationsforskning.Inom forskningen kring migration och utveckling finns många studier kring kunskapsöverföring. Dessa studier berör företrädesvis migration från Afrika till Europa, och de kunskaper och erfarenheter som afrikanska migranter eventuellt överför till sina ursprungsländer. Detta projekt representerar därmed något nytt genom att belysa migration motsatt riktning, och dess betydelse för kunskapsöverföring. Troligen kommer denna typ av migration att öka i och med tilltagande globalisering och alltmer komplexa och varierade migrationsströmmar.Postkoloniala relationer och de känslor som uppstått i kolonialismens kölvatten är också viktiga för projektet. Pedagogisk forskning har visat att känslor är centrala för lärandeprocesser, och det har projektet tagit fasta på. Vi avser undersöka hur de starka och ofta ambivalenta känslor som präglar mötet mellan portugiser och moçambikier påverkar kunskapsutbytet dem emellan. I den postkoloniala forskningstraditionen har många forskare visat att de känslor som uppstår mellan forna kolonisatörer och forna koloniserade ofta är präglade av en stark ambivalens. Å ena sidan är båda sidor ofta rädda för varandra och kan hysa ömsesidiga aggressiva känslor. Å andra sidan kan det också finnas ett starkt igenkännande och en viss attraktion. Den mycket begränsade forskning som finns om de portugisiska migranterna visar att de inte litar på moçambikierna och ser ned på dem, men att de också är attraherade av dem. På den moçambikiska sidan finns ilska och hämndkänslor, samtidigt som man ser upp till portugisisk kunskap, och ofta framhåller att portugiserna är ”bra lärare”.

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 Developing countries, unspecified Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2017-05535_2-1 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.

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 Tanzania, United Republic of Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2017-05535_3-1 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. 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.

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. Forskningsprojektet kommer att belysa och jämföra statsutveckling och statskapacitet i Afrika genom att utvärdera under vilka förhållanden utvecklingsförmågan har stärkts och under vilka förhållanden den har försvagats.Specifikt kommer projektet att undersöka betydelsen av ekonomisk och social utvecklingsplanering, policyimplementering och utvärdering i de afrikanska staterna i ett historiskt perspektiv.

Historien om folkräkning i Afrika ger oss inte bara en inblick i Afrikas historiska demografi, den ger en bild av sättet att bygga kunskap som koloniala och postkoloniala stater har lämnat efter sig.Centrala frågorna för de som forskar om utveckling i Afrika är den relativa betydelsen av kolonialt styre (1880–1960), statsstyrd utveckling (1960–1980), strukturanpassning (1980–1995) och senare demokratiseringsprocesser och avreglering.

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.

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.

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.

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. Innovativ program för att eliminera malaria från öar i Vanuatu, med speciell fokus på Plasmodium vivax. Plasmodium vivax:I Stillahavsområdet har utrotning av malaria att ta sig an de utmaningar som den höga andelen av Plasmodium vivax-infektioner utgör.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

One such mosquito-borne virus with potential for global spread is O’nyong-nyong virus (ONNV), which has caused large outbreaks in Africa. The outbreaks have so far occurred in resource-limited developing countries and often been misdiagnosed as chikungunya, a closely related virus with similar symptoms. The purpose of the proposed project is to characterize ONNV regarding mosquito vectors, tropism, potential animal reservoirs, prevalence, incidence, and distribution. For this we will develop specific diagnostic assays for ONNV IgG and IgM antibody detection and to apply those for determining the prevalence and distribution of infection in humans and animals in a region of Kenya where ONNV is suspected to occur. Concomitantly we will study the incidence of O’nyong-nyong fever in patients with clinical acute symptoms, which indicates an ONNV infection, using detection of viral RNA by RT-PCR and IgM antibodies. We will study ONNV’s mosquito vector by sampling mosquitoes to characterize which vectors harbor ONNV. Further, we will experimentally investigate ONNV tropism and competence in different mosquito species, to better understand if ONNV have the potential to use other mosquito vectors and gain the potential to spread beyond known endemic regions. Ett myggburet virus med potential för global spridning är O´nyong-Nyong virus (ONNV). Det har orsakat stora utbrott under 1900-talet, men dessa utbrott har hittills skett i utvecklingsländer. Denna händelseutveckling liknar andra myggburna virus som världen nyligen drabbats av. Zikavirus och chikungunyavirus har sedan länge orsakat sjukdom i Afrika och Sydostasien, men brist på resurser i utvecklingsländer och ointresse från övriga världen gjorde att forskning och utveckling av motåtgärder i stort sett saknades. Dessa virus anpassade sig till myggvektorer och spreds över världen och orsakade stora allvarliga utbrott.  ONNV orsakar O’nyong-nyong feber och både symptomen och viruset liknar chikungunyavirus och ger feber med svåra och långdragna ledbesvär. Än så länge saknas specifik diagnostik för ONNV, så patienter feldiagnosticeras och sjukdomens korrekta utbredning och dess påverkan på folkhälsan respektive sjukvården förblir okänd. Det finns inget vaccin eller specifik terapi för behandling av ONNV. För att förstå sjukdomen och kunna motverka vidare smittspridning behövs mera grundläggande kunskaper om vilka myggarter som kan smittas med ONNV och hur det sprids vidare.Man antar att ONNV kan spridas med s.k. Anophelesmyggor, samma myggart som sprider malaria, vilket är ovanligt för virus.  Vi kommer att undersöka vilka myggor som kan bära och sprida ONNV genom att samla in myggor från ett område i Kenya vid Viktoriasjön, där ONNV tidigare har orsakat utbrott. Myggorna kommer att artbestämmas och viruset arvsmassa, ONNV RNA, kan påvisas i myggor med s.k. PCR metodik. Genom att undersöka om ONNV kan använda andra myggor som vektorer, kan vi bedöma risken för att viruset skulle kunna orsaka stora globala epidemier. Experiment kommer att genomföras då vi kommer att infektera olika myggarter med ONNV i laboratoriet och undersöka om detta virus kan växa i de olika myggarterna. Vissa studier har indikerat att ONNV kan använda sig av Aedesmyggor, som redan sprider Zika-, chikungunya- och denguevirus och om så är fallet finns potentialen för ONNV att orsaka stor global spridning.  Eftersom diagnostiken för ONNV inte alls är utvecklad så vet man inte idag hur vanlig ONNV är i Afrika. Vi kommer därför att utveckla specifika diagnostiska analyser för ONNV såsom antikroppsdetektering och använda den för att bestämma förekomst och spridning av infektioner orsakade av ONNV hos människor och djur kring Viktoriasjön i Kenya. Samtidigt kommer vi att studera förekomsten av O´nyong-nyong feber hos patienter med akuta kliniska symtom som indikerar på ONNV infektion. Här använder vi oss av detektion av viralt RNA genom PCR-metodik samt påvisande av IgM-antikroppar med vår nya specifikt utvecklade diagnostik. Myggburna virus har ofta en eller flera värddjur-reservoarer vilket har stor betydelse för att virus ska kunna cirkulera under längre tid och även för spridning till myggor och senare människor. För närvarande känner vi inte till vilken eventuell reservoar som ONNV har.  Det kommer vi att undersöka genom att analysera blodprover från fåglar, apor, gnagare och fladdermöss i samma område i Kenya där ONNV antas förekomma. Vi tror att vårt projekt kommer att spela en central roll när det gäller att förstå hur och var ONNV förekommer och sprids. Kunskaper som kan leda till förebyggande åtgärder i Kenya inom en snar framtid. Vårt projekt kommer inte bara att hjälpa till att förbättra diagnostiken, men också hjälpa till med att bestämma den verkliga orsaken till oförklarliga febersjukdomar som förblir odiagnostiserade. Dessutom kommer de prov som erhålls vara en biobank av prover (humana, mygg, apor, fågel, gnagare, fladdermöss) från Kenya som senare kan analyseras för andra smittämnen.

Further, we will experimentally investigate ONNV tropism and competence in different mosquito species, to better understand if ONNV have the potential to use other mosquito vectors and gain the potential to spread beyond known endemic regions. Ett myggburet virus med potential för global spridning är O´nyong-Nyong virus (ONNV). Det har orsakat stora utbrott under 1900-talet, men dessa utbrott har hittills skett i utvecklingsländer. Denna händelseutveckling liknar andra myggburna virus som världen nyligen drabbats av. Zikavirus och chikungunyavirus har sedan länge orsakat sjukdom i Afrika och Sydostasien, men brist på resurser i utvecklingsländer och ointresse från övriga världen gjorde att forskning och utveckling av motåtgärder i stort sett saknades. Dessa virus anpassade sig till myggvektorer och spreds över världen och orsakade stora allvarliga utbrott.  ONNV orsakar O’nyong-nyong feber och både symptomen och viruset liknar chikungunyavirus och ger feber med svåra och långdragna ledbesvär. Än så länge saknas specifik diagnostik för ONNV, så patienter feldiagnosticeras och sjukdomens korrekta utbredning och dess påverkan på folkhälsan respektive sjukvården förblir okänd. Det finns inget vaccin eller specifik terapi för behandling av ONNV. För att förstå sjukdomen och kunna motverka vidare smittspridning behövs mera grundläggande kunskaper om vilka myggarter som kan smittas med ONNV och hur det sprids vidare.Man antar att ONNV kan spridas med s.k. Anophelesmyggor, samma myggart som sprider malaria, vilket är ovanligt för virus.  Vi kommer att undersöka vilka myggor som kan bära och sprida ONNV genom att samla in myggor från ett område i Kenya vid Viktoriasjön, där ONNV tidigare har orsakat utbrott. Myggorna kommer att artbestämmas och viruset arvsmassa, ONNV RNA, kan påvisas i myggor med s.k. PCR metodik. Genom att undersöka om ONNV kan använda andra myggor som vektorer, kan vi bedöma risken för att viruset skulle kunna orsaka stora globala epidemier. Experiment kommer att genomföras då vi kommer att infektera olika myggarter med ONNV i laboratoriet och undersöka om detta virus kan växa i de olika myggarterna. Vissa studier har indikerat att ONNV kan använda sig av Aedesmyggor, som redan sprider Zika-, chikungunya- och denguevirus och om så är fallet finns potentialen för ONNV att orsaka stor global spridning.  Eftersom diagnostiken för ONNV inte alls är utvecklad så vet man inte idag hur vanlig ONNV är i Afrika. Vi kommer därför att utveckla specifika diagnostiska analyser för ONNV såsom antikroppsdetektering och använda den för att bestämma förekomst och spridning av infektioner orsakade av ONNV hos människor och djur kring Viktoriasjön i Kenya. Samtidigt kommer vi att studera förekomsten av O´nyong-nyong feber hos patienter med akuta kliniska symtom som indikerar på ONNV infektion. Här använder vi oss av detektion av viralt RNA genom PCR-metodik samt påvisande av IgM-antikroppar med vår nya specifikt utvecklade diagnostik. Myggburna virus har ofta en eller flera värddjur-reservoarer vilket har stor betydelse för att virus ska kunna cirkulera under längre tid och även för spridning till myggor och senare människor. För närvarande känner vi inte till vilken eventuell reservoar som ONNV har.  Det kommer vi att undersöka genom att analysera blodprover från fåglar, apor, gnagare och fladdermöss i samma område i Kenya där ONNV antas förekomma. Vi tror att vårt projekt kommer att spela en central roll när det gäller att förstå hur och var ONNV förekommer och sprids. Kunskaper som kan leda till förebyggande åtgärder i Kenya inom en snar framtid. Vårt projekt kommer inte bara att hjälpa till att förbättra diagnostiken, men också hjälpa till med att bestämma den verkliga orsaken till oförklarliga febersjukdomar som förblir odiagnostiserade. Dessutom kommer de prov som erhålls vara en biobank av prover (humana, mygg, apor, fågel, gnagare, fladdermöss) från Kenya som senare kan analyseras för andra smittämnen.

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.

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.

We have mapped where the infections are in the country and investigated agroforestry practices that can we used to alleviate symptoms No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2017-05621_1-1 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.

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.

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. Membrantyget svetsas samman till en påse. Fruktsaften eller purén som skall torkas fylls i påsen och försluts med en enkel klämma. Den fyllda påsen kan läggas eller hängas i solen och kommer efter 4 till 6 dagar ha torkat bort ca 80 % av vattnet och samtidigt nå en sockerkoncentration som bevarar slutprodukten och hindrar på så sätt eventuella mikroorganismer att växa till.

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. Samtidigt vet vi från tidigare studier att idén om vem som anses vara en passande politisk kandidat i Kambodja är starkt könad, och att kvinnor har svårt att passa in i den normen.Den sociala medie-plattform som vi genomgående i projektet fokuserar på är Facebook, eftersom det är den absolut vanligaste sociala medie-plattformen i Kambodja. 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. Genom att studera både kvinnliga och manliga kandidaters Facebook-sidor i anslutning till och under det Kambodjanska valet, samt även genomföra semi-strukturerade intervjuer med ett urval av kandidater, vill studien utröna i vilken utsträckning och på vilket sätt denna typ av valrelaterad repression drabbar kvinnor och män olika, och dessutom, om det i högre utsträckning drabbar (kvinnliga) oppositionella kandidater än regimvänliga (kvinnor). Syftet med fallstudien är att på ett djupare plan förstå hur och i vilken utsträckning repressiva regimer kan kringskära kvinnors politiska deltagande, och hur sociala medier kan möjliggöra eller hindra framgångsrikt kampanjande.

Unfortunately these fisheries are severely threatened by overfishing and climate change effects, calling for better management. But solutions can be hard to find when they depend on social and ecological context. In this project we aim to increase our understanding about behavioral strategies adopted by SSF in different types of contexts for dealing with future climate challenges. To this end we will combine social and ecological background data with behavioral laboratory (lab) and field experiments. Our lab experiments will conducted at Stockholm University and will mainly serve as testbeds. The field experiments will be similar in design but conducted with fishers in SSF communities in Colombia and Thailand whose average income falls within the range of the average income of the least developed countries. We will visit at least two communities in each country that differ in some contextual variable (e.g., resource dependency) but that in other respects are similar. With the help of interviews and surveys we will also elicit individual attributes and socio-economic characteristics that may influence behavior. At the end we will synthesize the insights gained with the intent to aid local fishery communities and governments to identify and nurture strategies that allow fishers in these communities to make a good livelihood without jeopardizing future resource stocks. Småskaligt fiske är centralt för fattigdomsbekämpning. För miljontals människor i låginkomstländer ger det inte bara en tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning, det är också en garant för proteinrik föda. Många av dessa fiskesamhällen är tyvärr allvarligt hotade av både överfiske och klimatförändringar (vilket exempelvis kommer leda till en ökad variation och osäkerhet i fiskebeståndet). Dessa utmaningar kräver en god förvaltning men lösningar kan vara svårt att identifiera, särskilt när utformningen av desamma med stor sannolikhet beror på sociala, ekologiska och/eller historiska sammanhang.Mot bakgrund av detta vill vi kartlägga och öka vår förståelse kring de beteendestrategier (individuella och kollektiva) som dessa småskaliga fiskare använder och kan tänkas använda för att hantera framtida klimatutmaningar och hur de kan variera beroende på sammanhang.

Även om dessa två länder inte tillhör kategorin för de allra minst utvecklade länderna faller medelinkomsten i de samhällen vi planerar att besöka inom den kategorin. Vi menar därför att dessa fiskesamhällen är representativa även för liknande samhällen i länder med lägre genomsnittlig medelinkomst.

Detta gör det möjligt för oss att systematiskt undersöka betydelsen av kontextuella variabler. Vi kommer också att komplettera fältexperimenten med intervjuer för att samla in data på såväl individuella attribut (t.ex. sociala preferenser och preferenser gentemot risk och osäkerhet) som socio-ekonomiska bakgrundsfakta (t ex kön, ålder, hushållsinkomst, hushållets storlek, sparbeteende, etc.) som kan tänkas påverka deras individuella och kollektiva beteenden. Vi planerar även för ett uppföljningsmöte i varje samhälle där vi tillsammans med deltagarna planerar att reflektera över experimentet i sig och om kring möjliga insikter de har fått från att delta i experimentet, som kan vara relevant för såväl deras egna beslut (dagliga och mera långsiktiga) som ur ett policy perspektiv.Mot slutet av projektet kommer vi att syntetisera våra insikter när det gäller individuella och kollektiva beteenden och strategier som används och kan användas av dessa småskaliga fiskare för att hantera en ökad resursknapphet och oförutsägbarhet av fiskebestånd. Vår avsikt är att kunna identifiera strategier som kan möjliggöra för dessa fiskare att uppnå en god försörjning, att kunna fortsätta att utvecklas - socialt, kulturellt och ekonomiskt - utan att äventyra framtida möjligheter till detsamma.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2017-05641-1 Sweden Small-scale fisheries (SSFs) are central for poverty alleviation and food security for millions of people. Unfortunately these fisheries are severely threatened by overfishing and climate change effects, calling for better management. But solutions can be hard to find when they depend on social and ecological context. In this project we aim to increase our understanding about behavioral strategies adopted by SSF in different types of contexts for dealing with future climate challenges. To this end we will combine social and ecological background data with behavioral laboratory (lab) and field experiments. Our lab experiments will conducted at Stockholm University and will mainly serve as testbeds. The field experiments will be similar in design but conducted with fishers in SSF communities in Colombia and Thailand whose average income falls within the range of the average income of the least developed countries. We will visit at least two communities in each country that differ in some contextual variable (e.g., resource dependency) but that in other respects are similar. With the help of interviews and surveys we will also elicit individual attributes and socio-economic characteristics that may influence behavior. At the end we will synthesize the insights gained with the intent to aid local fishery communities and governments to identify and nurture strategies that allow fishers in these communities to make a good livelihood without jeopardizing future resource stocks. Småskaligt fiske är centralt för fattigdomsbekämpning. För miljontals människor i låginkomstländer ger det inte bara en tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning, det är också en garant för proteinrik föda. Många av dessa fiskesamhällen är tyvärr allvarligt hotade av både överfiske och klimatförändringar (vilket exempelvis kommer leda till en ökad variation och osäkerhet i fiskebeståndet). Dessa utmaningar kräver en god förvaltning men lösningar kan vara svårt att identifiera, särskilt när utformningen av desamma med stor sannolikhet beror på sociala, ekologiska och/eller historiska sammanhang.Mot bakgrund av detta vill vi kartlägga och öka vår förståelse kring de beteendestrategier (individuella och kollektiva) som dessa småskaliga fiskare använder och kan tänkas använda för att hantera framtida klimatutmaningar och hur de kan variera beroende på sammanhang.

This is broadly viewed as a central reason why the region has not embarked on a path of sustained economic growth and why mass poverty is still widespread. But why agricultural productivity has remained stagnant remains a mystery. There is strong agreement among agricultural experts that modern technologies, including fertilizers and hybrid seeds, would radically improve productivity. Still, adoption of such inputs is strikingly low. The purpose here is to experimentally examine whether farmers’ productivity and willingness to adopt modern technologies will significantly increase if they become meaningfully integrated into the value chain and thus able to access both functioning input and output markets. Lack of market access has been highlighted as crucial constraints to technology adoption and productivity growth in Africa, but rigorous empirical research on the topic is missing.The field work amounts to actual integration of farmers into a market based supply chain. By so doing, farmers will access markets where high quality inputs can be bought and where their produce can be sold at market prices. The experimental design will allow us to estimate the causal impact of market access on productivity and technology adoption, but will also allow us to assess other hypotheses, such as lack of credit and insufficient agricultural knowledge. Den låga och stagnerande produktiviteten i jordbruket i Afrika söder om Sahara har identifierats som en central förklaringsfaktor till regionens långsiktigt svaga ekonomiska utveckling och varför fattigdomen fortfarande är så pass utbredd. Men varför jordbruket i Afrika har haft en så svag produktivitetsutveckling är, trots omfattande forskning, fortfarande ett mysterium. Bland jordbruksexperter finns en stark samsyn att systematisk användning av moderna insatsvaror, så som konstgödsel och hybridutsäde, radikalt kan höja produktiviteten inom jordbruket, men få småbönder i Afrika använder dessa förhållandevis enkla jordbruksteknologier, trots hög förväntad avkastning. Syftet men detta forskningsprojekt är att undersöka en lovande hypotes om teknologiadoption som, om hypotesen stämmer, skulle ha stor praktisk betydelse för utformandet av en effektiv utvecklingspolitik på nationell och internationell nivå.Hypotesen är att småjordbrukares incitament att använda moderna, men enkla, teknologier dramatiskt skulle öka om de hade tillgång till effektiva marknader där de kan sälja det de producera och köpa de insatsvaror de behöver. Avsaknad av välfungerande marknader har av många nämnts som en central förklaringsfaktor för bristen på teknologiadoption men rigorös empirisk forskning i ämnet saknas.I praktiken syftar forskningsprojektet på att studera småbönder som integreras i en marknadsbaserad supply-chain. Denna integrering, i sin tur, ger småbönderna tillgång till marknader för insatsvaror av hög kvalitet och till marknader där de kan sälja det de producerar till marknadspriser.Att experimentellt förändra marknadsstrukturen för småbönder kräver storskalig implementering. Således kommer hushåll boende i 50 byar att följas under en treårsperiod och data på deras val av insatsvaror, produktivitet, och inkomster kommer att samlas in. I 30 av dessa byar, slumpmässigt utvalda, kommer en ny marknadsaktör (en social entreprenör) att etablera sig. Denna aktör kommer att vara villig att köpa majs av god kvalitet till marknadspriser betydligt högre än de priser småbönder erbjuds från lokala köpmän men också ge jordbrukarna tillgång till högkvalitativa insatsvaror och kunskap om hur man bäst använder dessa insatsvaror. Designen av det randomiserade experimentet kommer göra det möjligt att kausalt mäta sambandet mellan marknadstillgång och produktivitet och teknologiadoption, men även göra det möjligt att studera effekterna av lättnader i kreditrestriktioner och förbättrad kunskap om best-practice inom jordbruket.

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. För att få en djupare förståelse för biståndets indirekta effekter, samt mer generellt, varför vissa projekt är framgångsrika och andra inte, kommer vi komplettera GIE-analysen med fältstudier som fokuserar på specifika biståndsinsatser.       Vårt bidrag till den akademiska litteraturen och policydebatten om biståndseffektivitet kan delas in i tre kategorier. För att bemöta det ökande behovet av mål-specifik utvärdering av bistånd, samt ’den saknade mitten’ i litteraturen om biståndseffektivitet, studerar vi biståndseffektivitet i ett disaggregerat, jämförande perspektiv, med fokus på systematisk variation mellan biståndssektorer, givare och regioner inom länder. För att få en mer komplett bild av biståndets effekter så studerar vi inte bara direkt avsedda effekter av biståndsprojekt, utan även dess (ofta förbisedda) indirekta effekter på andra relevanta utfall. Och slutligen, för att reda ut de inblandade teoretiska mekanismerna, och i synnerhet varför vissa projekt är framgångsrika och andra inte, kompletterar vi den kvantitativa analysen med djupgående 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 Malawi Administration of developing countries' foreign aid Government & Civil Society-general Some of our studies have advanced the methods used to estimate casual effects with data on local aid projects.

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. För att få en djupare förståelse för biståndets indirekta effekter, samt mer generellt, varför vissa projekt är framgångsrika och andra inte, kommer vi komplettera GIE-analysen med fältstudier som fokuserar på specifika biståndsinsatser.       Vårt bidrag till den akademiska litteraturen och policydebatten om biståndseffektivitet kan delas in i tre kategorier.

The fragility of the socio-economic structure of this region makes it particularly vulnerable to such environmental effects. However, the actual quantification of these effects is problematic: the climate effects of light-absorbing aerosols is a major uncertainty in current atmospheric climate science in general. Unfortunately, the level of confidence is particularly low for SSA due to the comparably limited number of ground-based observations.In this project we address the large uncertainties of light-absorbing aerosols in SSA by conducting ground-based local-collaborative observations at both urban and background sites in Rwanda and Kenya. We will focus on the characterization of light-absorbing black (BC) and brown carbon (BrC) aerosols, which will be collected on filters. The filters will be analyzed at Stockholm University, in part by exchange students from Rwanda and Kenya. Special care will be given to the isolation of BrC by systematically examining different extraction solvents. The light-absorption, chemical characteristics and isotopic composition of BC and BrC will be examined, providing insights into emissions sources. Taken together this project address a central problem for sustainable development in SSA. The findings will be communicated to our policy contacts in Rwanda, Kenya and Sweden. Den övergripande målsättningen med det här projektet är att förbättra vår förståelse av hur de stora utsläppen av ljusabsorberande aerosoler påverkar klimat och hälsa i Sub-Sahariska Afrika.Varje år släpps enorma mängder ljusabsorberande aerosoler ut i atmosfären över Subsahariska Afrika genom savann- och skogsbränder samt mänskliga aktiviteter. Dessa luftpartiklar värmer upp det regionala klimatet eftersom de absorberar det inkommande solljuset. De påverkar även nederbörden – vilket påverkar tillgången på färskvatten och kan leda till torka/översvämningar - minskar solljuset vid markytan -  vilket påverkar tex agrara näringar - och försämrar kvaliteten på luften människor andas. Sammantaget har detta allvarliga konsekvenser, särskilt för fattiga människor som så gott som alltid har sämst resiliens mot miljöpåverkan. Det innebär också en stor utmaning när det gäller hållbar utveckling för området, särskilt som den pågående befolkninsökningen och urbaniseringen är kopplad till ökade utsläpp.Tyvärr är vår generella förståelse av ljusabsorberande aerosoler och deras miljöeffektet förknippad med stora osäkerheter. Modellberäkningar av klimateffekterna av en av huvudkomponenterna, sot (engelska ’black carbon’), underskattas med en faktor av 2-3 globalt jämfört med mätningar i atmosfären. För Subsahariska Afrika -  vilket uppskattas vara ett av de tre områden på jorden som står för störst utsläpp av sot - är kunskapsläget ännu sämre p.g.a. det begränsade antalet av mätstationer. Detta påverkar även vår förståelse för sots hälsoeffekter: sot är t.ex. en av de mer hälsopåverkande komponenterna i de luftföroreningar som årligen dödar mer än 7 miljoner människor, särskilt i låginkomstländer.Förutom sot, är även bruna aerosoler (engelska ’brown carbon’) en viktig del av de ljusabsorberande aerosolerna. De bruna aerosolerna har börjat studeras först på senare år, och kunskapsläget är därför ännu sämre än för sot. Precis som med sot, bildas bruna aerosoler genom ofullständiga förbränningsprocesser som savannabränder eller trafikavgaser, även om andra mekanismer även kan bidra till bildandet. Detta är en anledning till att man anser att Subsahariska Afrika är den region på jorden som släpper ut mest bruna aerosoler.För att förbättra kunskapsläget kring sot och bruna aerosoler i Subsahariska Afrika föreslår vi att i det här projektet fortsätta vårt nära samarbete med våra kollegor i Rwanda och Kenya. Genom att samla in filterprover i både stads- (Nairobi) och vid bakgrundsstationer i bergen i Rwanda och Kenya har vi möjligheten att undersöka både sotets och de bruna aerosolernas fysiska och kemiska egenskaper i olika miljöer i Subsahariska Afrika. Dessa studier möjligör också kunskapsutbyte mellan svenska och afrikanska forskare, samt tillfällen för undervisning samt utbyte av masterstudenter.En anledning till att kunskapsläget för de bruna aerosolerna i nuläget är lågt är att det inte finns några väl etablerade tekniker för att isolera dessa från andra aerosoler. I det här projektet föreslår vi en strategi för att isolera dessa genom att använda extrahering med systematiskt urvalda lösningsmedel. Vi kommer använda och jämföra effekterna extraktion med lösningsmedel med olika specifika kemiska egenskaper: polära vätedonerande lösningsmedel (tex vatten) polära väteaccepterande (tex acetonitril) samt ickepolära lösningsmedel (tex hexan). De olika extrakten med bruna aerosoler kommer sedan att användas för att karakterisera isolaten mha isotop- och ljus-absorberande egenskaper.Isotopverktygen är kraftfulla för att förstå utsläppskällor, men även effekter av reaktioner i atmosfären. Till exempel kan kol-14 användas för att särskilja fossila från biomassakällor. Isotopkarakteriseringen kommer att genomföras på både bruna aerosoler och sotpartiklar. Förbättrad förståelse av utsläppskällorna för dessa ger direkta insikter i vilka källor som ger störst klimat eller hälsopåverkan.

Den övergripande målsättningen med det här projektet är att förbättra vår förståelse av hur de stora utsläppen av ljusabsorberande aerosoler påverkar klimat och hälsa i Sub-Sahariska Afrika.Varje år släpps enorma mängder ljusabsorberande aerosoler ut i atmosfären över Subsahariska Afrika genom savann- och skogsbränder samt mänskliga aktiviteter. Dessa luftpartiklar värmer upp det regionala klimatet eftersom de absorberar det inkommande solljuset. De påverkar även nederbörden – vilket påverkar tillgången på färskvatten och kan leda till torka/översvämningar - minskar solljuset vid markytan -  vilket påverkar tex agrara näringar - och försämrar kvaliteten på luften människor andas. Sammantaget har detta allvarliga konsekvenser, särskilt för fattiga människor som så gott som alltid har sämst resiliens mot miljöpåverkan. Det innebär också en stor utmaning när det gäller hållbar utveckling för området, särskilt som den pågående befolkninsökningen och urbaniseringen är kopplad till ökade utsläpp.Tyvärr är vår generella förståelse av ljusabsorberande aerosoler och deras miljöeffektet förknippad med stora osäkerheter. Modellberäkningar av klimateffekterna av en av huvudkomponenterna, sot (engelska ’black carbon’), underskattas med en faktor av 2-3 globalt jämfört med mätningar i atmosfären. För Subsahariska Afrika -  vilket uppskattas vara ett av de tre områden på jorden som står för störst utsläpp av sot - är kunskapsläget ännu sämre p.g.a. det begränsade antalet av mätstationer. Detta påverkar även vår förståelse för sots hälsoeffekter: sot är t.ex. en av de mer hälsopåverkande komponenterna i de luftföroreningar som årligen dödar mer än 7 miljoner människor, särskilt i låginkomstländer.Förutom sot, är även bruna aerosoler (engelska ’brown carbon’) en viktig del av de ljusabsorberande aerosolerna. De bruna aerosolerna har börjat studeras först på senare år, och kunskapsläget är därför ännu sämre än för sot. Precis som med sot, bildas bruna aerosoler genom ofullständiga förbränningsprocesser som savannabränder eller trafikavgaser, även om andra mekanismer även kan bidra till bildandet. Detta är en anledning till att man anser att Subsahariska Afrika är den region på jorden som släpper ut mest bruna aerosoler.För att förbättra kunskapsläget kring sot och bruna aerosoler i Subsahariska Afrika föreslår vi att i det här projektet fortsätta vårt nära samarbete med våra kollegor i Rwanda och Kenya. Genom att samla in filterprover i både stads- (Nairobi) och vid bakgrundsstationer i bergen i Rwanda och Kenya har vi möjligheten att undersöka både sotets och de bruna aerosolernas fysiska och kemiska egenskaper i olika miljöer i Subsahariska Afrika. Dessa studier möjligör också kunskapsutbyte mellan svenska och afrikanska forskare, samt tillfällen för undervisning samt utbyte av masterstudenter.En anledning till att kunskapsläget för de bruna aerosolerna i nuläget är lågt är att det inte finns några väl etablerade tekniker för att isolera dessa från andra aerosoler. I det här projektet föreslår vi en strategi för att isolera dessa genom att använda extrahering med systematiskt urvalda lösningsmedel. Vi kommer använda och jämföra effekterna extraktion med lösningsmedel med olika specifika kemiska egenskaper: polära vätedonerande lösningsmedel (tex vatten) polära väteaccepterande (tex acetonitril) samt ickepolära lösningsmedel (tex hexan). De olika extrakten med bruna aerosoler kommer sedan att användas för att karakterisera isolaten mha isotop- och ljus-absorberande egenskaper.Isotopverktygen är kraftfulla för att förstå utsläppskällor, men även effekter av reaktioner i atmosfären. Till exempel kan kol-14 användas för att särskilja fossila från biomassakällor. Isotopkarakteriseringen kommer att genomföras på både bruna aerosoler och sotpartiklar. Förbättrad förståelse av utsläppskällorna för dessa ger direkta insikter i vilka källor som ger störst klimat eller hälsopåverkan.

The fragility of the socio-economic structure of this region makes it particularly vulnerable to such environmental effects. However, the actual quantification of these effects is problematic: the climate effects of light-absorbing aerosols is a major uncertainty in current atmospheric climate science in general. Unfortunately, the level of confidence is particularly low for SSA due to the comparably limited number of ground-based observations.In this project we address the large uncertainties of light-absorbing aerosols in SSA by conducting ground-based local-collaborative observations at both urban and background sites in Rwanda and Kenya. We will focus on the characterization of light-absorbing black (BC) and brown carbon (BrC) aerosols, which will be collected on filters. The filters will be analyzed at Stockholm University, in part by exchange students from Rwanda and Kenya. Special care will be given to the isolation of BrC by systematically examining different extraction solvents. The light-absorption, chemical characteristics and isotopic composition of BC and BrC will be examined, providing insights into emissions sources.

Our objectives are to:Evaluate the present status of the buffalo milk chain in Bangladesh, from udder to consumer, focusing on udder health, handling practices and milk production. Identify risk factors and best practices for better milk quality and safety.Evaluate the presence of typical foodborne pathogens in buffalo milk such as Brucella and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Identify measures to control their transmission in a One Health approach.Model the effect of a transition from a dairy-cow-based milk chain towards a water-buffalo-based milk chain.Design and implement a transition strategy towards a water buffalo milk chain, using stakeholders’ inputs and the previously collected informationThis four-year study will be carried out as one PhD and four MSc projects, and will include traditional prevalence studies based on milk and aninal sampling, risk factor analyses and mathematic and epidemilogical modelling. The project will be led by one researcher from Sweden and one from Bangladesh.The overarching goal of this proposal is to map the milk related disease status of water buffaloes in Bangladesh and see whether transition to a water buffalo dairy chain is sustainable, profitable, and holds healthier animals and humans in a ONE HEALTH perspective. 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. Ytterligare information kommer att samlas in vid de möten som kommer att hållas i Bangladesh och som riktar sig till forskare, fältveterinärer och andra berörda inom vattenbuffelnäringen. Samtliga resultat kommer att sammanställas för att mynna ut i råd och riktlinjer för hur Bangladesh ska kunna gå över från mjölkkor till vattenbufflar för att producera säker mjölk av god kvalitet som produceras med hjälp av friska djur och en god livsmedelshantering längs med hela mjölkkedjan.

Our objectives are to:Evaluate the present status of the buffalo milk chain in Bangladesh, from udder to consumer, focusing on udder health, handling practices and milk production. Identify risk factors and best practices for better milk quality and safety.Evaluate the presence of typical foodborne pathogens in buffalo milk such as Brucella and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Identify measures to control their transmission in a One Health approach.Model the effect of a transition from a dairy-cow-based milk chain towards a water-buffalo-based milk chain.Design and implement a transition strategy towards a water buffalo milk chain, using stakeholders’ inputs and the previously collected informationThis four-year study will be carried out as one PhD and four MSc projects, and will include traditional prevalence studies based on milk and aninal sampling, risk factor analyses and mathematic and epidemilogical modelling. The project will be led by one researcher from Sweden and one from Bangladesh.The overarching goal of this proposal is to map the milk related disease status of water buffaloes in Bangladesh and see whether transition to a water buffalo dairy chain is sustainable, profitable, and holds healthier animals and humans in a ONE HEALTH perspective. 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.

Since the goals are interconnected, they must be tackled in an integrated way. Hence, the SDGs offer new opportunities for sectors to collaborate to achieve sustainable progress on common issues. The purpose of this collaboration is to develop a common research project regarding the SDGs and child health between institutions in Sweden, Cambodia and Southeast Asia. Specifically, the project would lead to synthesized evidence of the impact of the non-health sector on child health globally and in the collaborative countries as well as an identification, description and classification of the linkages between child health and the SDGs both globally, regionally and on a country level. The collaboration and research project will be developed during a two year period, with project activities including study visit to Cambodia, a small pilot study in Cambodia, regional meetings in Bangkok and an international workshop in Sweden. This collaboration will be the first ever attempt at creating an empirical base for assessing SDG interactions in a health policy area. A better understanding of the linkages between SDGs can form a basis for bridging science and decision making and provide a lever to push governments to take multisectoral action not only in child health but in other areas as well, enabling transformative action both at national and global level. I september 2015 enades FN´s 192 medlemsländer om ett nytt ramverk för hållbar utveckling, Agenda 2030. Ramverket utgörs av 17 Hållbara Utvecklingsmål och 169 delmål, vilka reflekterar de tre dimensionerna av hållbar utveckling; den miljömässiga, sociala och ekonomiska. Eftersom många av målen till stor del är sammanflätade måste beslutsfattare och forskare tackla målen i sin helhet och ta i beaktning hur en förändring inom ett område påverkar ett annat. Inom global barnhälsa har man länge insett hur viktigt det är med väl fungerande sektorer utanför den traditionella hälso- och sjukvården, exempelvis vatten och sanitet (Mål 6), för att erhålla en god barnhälsa. Vidare är det visat att ungefär hälften av minskningen i barnadödlighet i låg och medelinkomstländer de senaste årtiondena kan härledas till interventioner och framsteg utanför hälso- och sjukvården. Samtidigt visar mycket forskning på att framsteg inom barnhälsa är en nödvändighet om vi ska uppfylla andra mål i Agenda 2030.Forskare har på olika sätt försökt att konceptualisera och konkretisera interaktioner mellan de olika målen i Agenda 2030. Måns Nilsson, en av deltagarna i denna ansökan, och kollegor har utvecklat en metod som givet ett antal dimensioner systematiskt klassificerar interaktioner utefter dess riktning och styrka på en skala mellan -3 och +3. Vi har använt denna metod för att undersöka vilka interaktioner som finns mellan barnhälsa och de 169 delmålen och visat på att det finns många förstärkande och få försvårande interaktioner mellan barnhälsa och de Hållbara Utvecklingsmålen. Dessa generella fynd är dock otillräckliga eftersom interaktioner av sin natur beror på kontexten där de analyseras. Vidare finns det stora kunskapsluckor inom den medicinska forskningen kring hur påverkan från andra samhällsområden påverkar hälsa och välbefinnande vilket gör det svårt att klassificera interaktioner. Vi ämnar därför vidareutveckla ett forskningssamarbete mellan forskare från olika discipliner och institutioner i Sverige, Kambodja och Sydostasien för att sammanställa en grundläggande evidensbas för multisektoriella interventioner och dess effekt samt identifiera, beskriva och klassificera interaktioner mellan barnhälsa och de Hållbara Utvecklingsmålen på en global och nationell nivå i Kambodja. Inom arbetet för att utveckla detta forskningsprojekt kommer vi genomföra olika nätverksbyggande aktiviteter så som möten och workshops i Kambodja, Bangkok och Sverige samt en mindre pilotstudie i Kambodja. Målet med pilotstudien är att undersöka metodologin, bygga kapacitet hos samarbetspartners och arbetet och resultatet av studien kommer ligga till grund för utvecklandet av forskningssamarbetet och det gemensamma forskningsprojektet. Under pilotstudien kommer forskare från Sverige, Kambodja, Sydostasien och Afrika vara delaktiga. Forskningssamarbetet och det forskningsprojekt vi vill utveckla har stor potential. Kortsiktigt kommer samarbetet innebära möjligheter för världsledande forskare inom olika fält att få möjligheten att mötas och samarbeta över disciplingränser vilket kommer driva multidisciplinär barnhälsoforskning framåt. Den planerade pilotstudien kommer att vara den första studien i sitt slag och medföra nya forskningsresultat och därmed vara ett unikt tillskott till den vetenskapliga debatten kring interaktionerna mellan de Hållbara Utvecklingsmålen. På längre sikt kommer samarbetet underlätta kunskapsutbyte och kapacitetsbyggande i samarbetsländerna och leda till utvecklingen av ett större gemensamt forskningsprojekt. Genom att förstå och uppskatta sambanden mellan de Hållbara Utvecklingsmålen och barnhälsa får beslutsfattare nya verktyg att accelerera arbetet för att nå de ambitiöst satta målen för barnhälsa och Agenda 2030 i sin helhet.

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. Sexuellt våld leder till livslånga trauman, social stigmatisering och begränsade försörjningsmöjligheter – oönskade graviditeter tvingar kvinnor till att försöka försörja både sig själva och barnen vilket kan skapa en ond fattigdomsspiral som spänner över generationer. En fördjupad och samlad kunskap kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld är således nödvändig för att utveckla effektiva insatser.Utförande: Under en tvåårig period planeras ett antal aktiviteter som ligger till grund för ett ömsesidigt kunskapsutbyte mellan universiteten. Seminarier och workshops utgör en viktig del i detta arbete då vi får möjlighet att ta del av varandras perspektiv och erfarenheter. Andra aktiviteter som planeras är framtagandet av en sammanställning av tillgänglig forskning inom fältet, en pilotstudie som testar de nya metoderna, en forskningsartikel baserat på resultaten och en gemensam ansökan för ett större forskningsprojekt i regionen. Informationsspridning till både det akademiska och icke-akademiska samhället kommer att ske kontinuerligt under hela projekttiden för att sprida information om samarbetet och resultaten som framkommer men också för att inhämta information från de som arbetar med sexuellt våld.

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. Sexuellt våld leder till livslånga trauman, social stigmatisering och begränsade försörjningsmöjligheter – oönskade graviditeter tvingar kvinnor till att försöka försörja både sig själva och barnen vilket kan skapa en ond fattigdomsspiral som spänner över generationer. En fördjupad och samlad kunskap kring konfliktbaserat sexuellt våld är således nödvändig för att utveckla effektiva insatser.Utförande: Under en tvåårig period planeras ett antal aktiviteter som ligger till grund för ett ömsesidigt kunskapsutbyte mellan universiteten.

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.

The share of the poor living in fragile environments is projected to increase, and small credits should be both more essential for household welfare and more challenging to capitalize in such an environment. The objective of this project is therefore to assess the impact of access to micro-credits through a randomized controlled trial in agreement with four MSME-financing institutions operating in Somalia. A partial-credit guarantee offered by our implementing partner Silatech, a social fund from Qatar, will incentivize the provision of credit to higher-risk borrowers, a subset of whom will be randomly selected to receive the guarantee and thereby obtain credit, while a subset will not. This is a methodological improvement as it gives us an opportunity to randomize at the individual level and calculate average treatment effects rather than randomize availability of credits at the community level, capturing intention to treat effects. Surveys of both control and treatment groups will be used to measure financial and social returns, income generation, job creation and life satisfaction, but also impact on political attitudes, including radicalization and support for extremist groups using endorsement and list experiments. Politiskt våld och instabilitet är en av de största utmaningarna för människors välbefinnande samt ambitionen att nå FNs nya globala mål för hållbar utveckling. Mellan 1990 och 2015 reducerades världens fattigdom till hälften, men tyvärr är utvecklingen långt ifrån unison. I så kallade ”fragile states” har utvecklingen snarast gått åt motsatt håll. År 2000 uppskattades en fjärdedel av världens extremt fattiga leva inom bräckliga och konfliktdrabbade länder. År 2030 förväntas mer än hälften göra det. Det är därför inte konstigt att de tidigare FN målen (Milleniemålen) har kritiserats för att inte ha beaktat dessa länders speciella behov och utmaningar tillräckligt.Somalia är ett av 20 "ständigt bräckliga" länder på den lista som de multilaterala utvecklingsbankerna använder sig av. Över 60 % av befolkningen anses vara fattig, och hög arbetslöshet, inte minst bland unga och kvinnor, och en offentlig sektor i förfall har gjort att många sätter sitt hopp till eget företagande. Endast i regionen Somaliland uppskattas det finnas över 100 000 små företag och de står för 33 % av regionens totala sysselsättning. Företagens tillväxt hämmas dock inte bara av den osäkra politiska utvecklingen, svag inhemsk efterfrågan och utbredd korruption, utan också av högst bristfälliga kapitalmarknader. Ett ljus i mörkret är dock tillväxten av mikrokredit-banker som ofta explicit vänder sig till unga och kvinnor med ambitionen att starta små företag, eller redan har små företag som behöver mer finansiering. Mikrokrediter har de senaste 15-20 åren blivit ett av de viktigaste, och mest omtalade, instrumenten för fattigdomsbekämpning inom utvecklingsarbetet. Enligt uppskattningar så har antalet extremt fattiga hushåll som har mikrolån globalt växt från 7,6 miljoner 1997, till 137,5 miljoner 2010. Men forskningen kring mikrolånens effektivitet har hittills begränsats till fattiga men stabila miljöer. Syftet med detta projekt är att göra en effektutvärdering av mikrokrediter i Somalia, ett land med ovanligt stora ekonomiska, sociala och politiska utmaningar. Tillsammans med våra samarbetspartners, en social fond (Silatech) baserad i Doha, Qatar, och de fyra största mikrokreditbankerna i Somalia, så kommer vi att genomföra en randomiserad studie med en unik forskningsdesign. Silatech tillhandahåller bankerna en partiell kredit-garanti som ger bankerna möjlighet att nå ut till kunder utan tillgång till egen finansiell säkerhet (”collateral”, vilket normalt krävs för att få låna). Storleken på garantin är begränsad, så de utan garanti, men annars rimliga affärsplaner, får genom ett lotteri tillgång, eller inte, till kredit-garantin. På detta sätt får vi två likvärdiga grupper varav den ena får tillgång till lån, men inte den andra. Enkät-undersökningar i båda grupperna kommer sedan användas för att mäta effekterna av tillgång på lån (genom att jämföra genomsnittsutfall mellan de två grupperna) på primärt ekonomisk aktivitet, inkomster och tillgångar, livstillfredsställelse, och politiska attityder. Det senare är det mer unika med denna studie, hur tillgången till krediter, och med dem eventuellt också jobb och ekonomisk trygghet, påverkar politiska attityder, något som är av stor betydelse i ett politiskt fragmenterat samhälle som Somalia fyllt av extremistiskt våld. Genom olika typer av enkät-experiment, så kallade ”endorsement” och ”list” experiment, kan vi mäta även känsliga preferenser såsom stöd för radikala politiska rörelser som Al-Shabaab.   Projektets bidrag till den existerande forskningen inom utvecklingsekonomi faller med andra ord främst inom tre områden. (i) Den första gedigna effektutvärderingen av mikrokrediter i en så bräcklig och utmanande miljö (”fragile state”) som Somalia. (ii) En ny och unik metod för att säkerställa att vi fångar kausala effekter av tillgången till mikrokrediter, och inte bara korrelationer. (iii) Ett bredare anslag vad gäller utfallsvariabler än vad befintliga studier har använt sig av.

This land use system integrates crop and livestock production in agricultural lands with a significant tree cover. The total annual output (as food, fodder and tree products) of these system is referred to as Net Primary Production (NPP). Recent analyses show that the demand for NPP in the region is rapidly increasing while the supply remains nearly constant. In this project we will study factors controlling NPP with the aim to enable optimization of land management and production capacity.Our project, building on an experienced multidisciplinary group with the ambition to employ a PhD student from Burkina Faso, will provide novel agro-ecological knowledge critical to parkland management. We will i)quantify NPP supply of the three main parkland components; crops, trees and grasses, and relate it to several controlling factors, ii)develop a system for national scale NPP monitoring using free and high resolution satellite data, iii)build scenarios of future NPP supply and demand guided by our NPP assessments, population projections, climate scenarios and land stakeholder dialogues, iv)interact with land users and policy actors in workshops for evaluating feasibility of scenarios, hurdles and ways forward, and v)disseminate results through posters, YouTube-films and flyers in local languages. I de västafrikanska torrområdena är majoriteten av befolkningen direkt beroende av de resurser som produceras i så kallade parklands. Jordbrukssystem kännetecknas av att grödor odlas under relativt tätt trädtäcke. Med jämna mellanrum läggs fälten i träda för att jorden inte ska utarmas på näringsämnen och blir då betesmark för boskap. Från parklands får befolkningen en rad livsnödvändiga resurser; grödor, frukt och nötter, djurbete och virke. Den sammanlagda biomassan som produceras i dessa landskap under en viss tidsperiod är dess primärproduktion (på engelska net primary production, NPP), d.v.s. den biologiska process där växter omvandlar oorganiska ämnen till kolhydrater genom fotosyntes.Sudano-Sahel upplever i nuläget en av jordens kraftigaste befolkningsökningar, samtidigt som området både är särskilt känsligt och utsatt för klimatförändringar. Den höga känsligheten beror på att jordbruket är starkt beroende av regelbundna regn då konstbevattning är mycket sällsynt. En rad rapporter visar nu att kombinationen av ett ökat behov av primärproduktion, som resulterar från befolkningsökningen, och ändrade regnmönster i en snar framtid kommer leda till ett kraftigt underskott av primärproduktion. Det finns alltså stora frågetecken kring huruvida dessa landskap kan bidra med en hållbar produktion av naturresurser, och därmed föda den växande befolkningen.Det finns dock stora kunskapsluckor när det gäller primärproduktionen i parklands. I nuläget vet vi inte hur mycket landskapens olika komponenter, d.v.s. grödor, träd och gräs, producerar. Vi vet heller inte hur parklands-typer i olika klimatzoner skiljer sig gällande mängd primärproduktion. Det finns också stora kunskapsluckor kring de faktorer (t.ex. markskötsel, djurhållning, val av grödor och regnmönster) som påverkar primärproduktionen. Bristen på grundläggande kunskap leder till att det är mycket svårt att utveckla metoder och strategier för att optimera utformningen, stödet och skötseln av dessa jordbrukslandskap med syfte att maximera primärproduktionen.Förutom en ökad kunskapsnivå så finns det också ett stort behov av förbättrade metoder för att kvantifiera landskapens primärproduktion. Vanligtvis används lågupplösta satellitdata (500-1000 m) när primärproduktion övervakas på landskapsnivå. Detaljgraden i denna information är låg i förhållande till jordbruksfältens storlek, vilken minskar dess praktiska användbarhet. I det här sammanhanget är det nya europeiska satellit-systemet Sentinel, med betydligt högre upplösning (10 m), mycket intressant. Ett system som med hög detaljgrad kan övervaka primärproduktion kan bidra till en rad applikationer för att säkerställa kvantifieringen av landskapens produktionskapacitet. Det skulle t.ex. kunna identifiera områden med akut brist på naturresurser, eller områden där långsiktiga åtgärder krävs för att förbättra landskapets förmåga till primärproduktion.Detta projekt kommer studera produktionskapaciteten hos dessa jordbrukssystem och de faktorer som påverkar den för att förstå hur de kan komma att påverkas av klimatförändringar och en växande befolkning. Vårt multidisciplinära forskarlag kommer kombinera en rad unika metoder för att göra fältmätningar av primärproduktion hos träd, grödor och gräs, samt samla in information om böndernas markanvändning. Fältarbetet kommer utföras i tre studieområden placerade i olika klimatzoner för att vi ska kunna studera skillnader mellan parkland-typer och skapa kunskap som är relevant för hela regionen. Förutom att utgöra grunden för analysen kommer fältmätningar användas till att kalibrera en satellitbaserad metod som gör det möjligt att kartera primärproduktion på nationell skala i Burkina Faso. Scenarier baserade på våra resultat i kombination med befolkningsprognoser och klimatscenarier kommer att tas fram och användas i deltagande-workshops på lokal och nationell nivå. Projektet kommer leverera vetenskapliga alster samt praktiska och policyrelaterade produkter (översatta informationsblad, filmer etc). Sammanfattningsvis kommer projektet bidra till en kraftigt förbättrad förståelse av detta viktiga jordbrukssystem, etablera diskussioner med markbrukare och tjänstefolk på relevanta ministerier, samt att utveckla ett mer detaljerat, relevant och kostnadseffektvt system för att övervaka förändringar i landskapets primärproduktion.

This land use system integrates crop and livestock production in agricultural lands with a significant tree cover. The total annual output (as food, fodder and tree products) of these system is referred to as Net Primary Production (NPP). Recent analyses show that the demand for NPP in the region is rapidly increasing while the supply remains nearly constant. In this project we will study factors controlling NPP with the aim to enable optimization of land management and production capacity.Our project, building on an experienced multidisciplinary group with the ambition to employ a PhD student from Burkina Faso, will provide novel agro-ecological knowledge critical to parkland management. We will i)quantify NPP supply of the three main parkland components; crops, trees and grasses, and relate it to several controlling factors, ii)develop a system for national scale NPP monitoring using free and high resolution satellite data, iii)build scenarios of future NPP supply and demand guided by our NPP assessments, population projections, climate scenarios and land stakeholder dialogues, iv)interact with land users and policy actors in workshops for evaluating feasibility of scenarios, hurdles and ways forward, and v)disseminate results through posters, YouTube-films and flyers in local languages. I de västafrikanska torrområdena är majoriteten av befolkningen direkt beroende av de resurser som produceras i så kallade parklands. Jordbrukssystem kännetecknas av att grödor odlas under relativt tätt trädtäcke. Med jämna mellanrum läggs fälten i träda för att jorden inte ska utarmas på näringsämnen och blir då betesmark för boskap. Från parklands får befolkningen en rad livsnödvändiga resurser; grödor, frukt och nötter, djurbete och virke. Den sammanlagda biomassan som produceras i dessa landskap under en viss tidsperiod är dess primärproduktion (på engelska net primary production, NPP), d.v.s. den biologiska process där växter omvandlar oorganiska ämnen till kolhydrater genom fotosyntes.Sudano-Sahel upplever i nuläget en av jordens kraftigaste befolkningsökningar, samtidigt som området både är särskilt känsligt och utsatt för klimatförändringar. Den höga känsligheten beror på att jordbruket är starkt beroende av regelbundna regn då konstbevattning är mycket sällsynt. En rad rapporter visar nu att kombinationen av ett ökat behov av primärproduktion, som resulterar från befolkningsökningen, och ändrade regnmönster i en snar framtid kommer leda till ett kraftigt underskott av primärproduktion. Det finns alltså stora frågetecken kring huruvida dessa landskap kan bidra med en hållbar produktion av naturresurser, och därmed föda den växande befolkningen.Det finns dock stora kunskapsluckor när det gäller primärproduktionen i parklands.

Although mass-starvation has killed staggering numbers of people, it is usually not conceptualized as mass-violence. Victims are rarely commemorated and actors responsible are not held accountable – despite the fact that famines are largely man-made. The proposed project aims to analyze the attempts and possibilities to pursue remembrance and justice after famines. It studies (1) under what conditions, how and by whom famines are understood, remembered and dealt with as mass-atrocities. This is done through a historical study of six famines in Africa, Asia and Europe. The project also analyzes (2) contemporary initiatives to push for remembrance and justice for hunger deaths, for instance by intergovernmental organizations, civil society groups, legal professionals, victim groups and states. Theoretically, the project understands conceptualizations of violence, memorialization and pursuit of justice as interconnected. Methodologically, the project will draw on earlier literature, archival research and media sources, and also carry out interviews with experts and key actors involved in projects of commemoration and justice. Bringing attention to the structural violence of famines, and gaining a systematic understanding of the opportunities and obstacles to bring those responsible to justice and commemorate victims will contribute to the important endeavor of preventing famines in the future. Efter att antalet människor som svälter i världen minskat stadigt under lång tid ökar hungern igen. År 2016 led hela 100 miljoner människor – 20 miljoner fler än året innan – av akut matbrist. År 2017 utbröt svältkatastrof i Sydsudan och varningar för svält utfärdades för Nigeria, Somalia och Jemen. Mellan år 1870 och 2010 dog minst hundra miljoner människor i stora svältkatastrofer. Dessa svindlande siffror visar att svält är en tragedi i nivå med folkmord och krig. Men trots detta hanteras det lidande och de förluster som svält medför annorlunda än förluster i krig och andra mer spektakulära former av våld. När det gäller folkmord, krig och terrorism finns internationella och nationella normer och processer för att ställa de skyldiga till svars, söka sanningen om vad som hände och minnas offren. Svält däremot betraktas ofta som något som beror på olyckliga omständigheter såsom dåligt väder. Svältens offer förblir osynliga och osörjda. Detta trots att forskningen om hur svältkatastrofer uppkommer entydigt visar att svält nästan alltid orsakas av medvetna handlingar – eller brist på handlande. Flera forskare har förespråkat att vi börjar prata om ”svältbrott” och identifierar gärningsmännen bakom världens hungerkatastrofer.Detta forskningsprojekt studerar de försök som görs för att minnas och skipa rättvisa för svältens offer, och bidrar därmed till att skapa en förståelse av svält som en typ av våld som måste tas på minst lika stort allvar som krig och folkmord.Projektet har två delar. Den första delen undersöker under vilka förutsättningar svältkatastrofer förstås, blir ihågkomna och hanteras som mass-våld.

Genom en systematisk genomgång av tidigare litteratur, rapportering i media och arkivkällor, samt intervjuer med experter och involverade aktörer, kommer vi att undersöka hur dessa svältkatastrofer beskrivits, och titta på vilka initiativ som tagits till att identifiera och ställa ansvariga till svars och att hedra offren. Genom att jämföra de olika fallen kommer vi att få ökat förståelse för när, hur, varför och för vem det kan bli möjligt att söka rättvisa för och minnas svältens offer.Projektets andra del fokuserar på nutida aktörer som försöker driva frågan om att svält bör förstås som storskaligt våld och det därför är relevant att minnas och skipa rättsskipa efter hungersnöd. Här kommer vi att göra intervjuer med akademiker, aktivister, människorättsorganisationer, jurister och andra aktörer som engagerar sig i dessa frågor, för att identifiera hur de jobbar och vilka hinder de stöter på.Projektets resultat kommer att ha direkt relevans för de aktörer i världen som kämpar för att öka kunskapen kring och förebygga hunger. Om vi vet mer om när och hur de som är ansvariga för svältkatastrofer kan ställas till svars, och under vilka förutsättningar minneshållande av svältens offer kan bidra till helande och samhällelig återuppbyggnad, kan strategier formuleras för att förstå och hantera tidigare svältkatastrofer på ett sätt som gör att framtida kriser kan förebyggas.

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.

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. Vi förväntar oss att sådana läkemedel skulle verka för att blockera infektion med chikungunyavirus och de andra i alfavirusgruppen.Vi kommer att testa ett antal molekyler för effekter på proteinkomplexet och antivirala effekter. De bäst fungerande molekyler kommer att användas som mallar för att designa förbättringar i en andra generation av molekyler. Förutom labarbete, kommer vi att organisera möten på KI och i Indien så att medlemmarna i varje forskningsgrupp kan nätverka med varandra och andra forskare vid värdinstituten. Vi kommer att ansöka om ytterligare medel för att expandera vårt nätverk i framtida år.En anti-alfaviralt läkemedel skulle vara en enorm fördel för global hälsa, särskilt i regioner med låginkomst. Vår forskning har gett oss en stor fördel i jakten på en specifik, potent och säker behandling. Vi hoppas att detta nätverk för samarbete kommer att fungera som ett frö för ett starkt internationellt nätverk med leverans av ett sådant läkemedel som vår prioritet.

The morbidity/mortality is considerable, not least in Sub-Saharan Africa. No effective treatment or vaccine exist. We will develop anti-RSV therapy from drug discovery onwards through epidemiological investigation by collaboration with Mozambique.Purpose and aims: i/ to understand the epidemiology of RSV respiratory infection in children in Mozambique and in Sweden, as groundwork for future antiviral treatment; ii/ to identify viral and host factors including antibody respone of importance for pathogenesis of RSV infection; and iii/to elucidate the efficacy, safety and molecular mechanism of action of our lead anti-RSV compound.Work plan: We have formed a research network within infectious disease epidemiology and drug discovery with collaborators from Maputo, Stockholm and Gothenburg. We will analyze retrospective data from our studies om respiratory infections dominated by RSV, and perform prospective studies in both countries, with focus on genetic diversity in both pathogen and host, and on antibody responses that might lead to more  severe symptoms. The methodology includes molecular epidemiology and diagnostics in humans, as well as cell biology and chemistry to define drug mechanisms. Novel seroassays will be developed.

Respiratoriskt syncytiellt virus (RSV) är globalt sett den vanligaste orsaken till lunginflammation hos barn under 2 år. Man beräknar att RSV orsakar cirka 200.000 dödsfall årligen, och barn i låginkomstländer är speciellt drabbade. Behandlingen är endast symtomlindrande då verksamma antivirala läkemedel saknas. Det finns heller inga möjligheter att vaccinera mot RSV-infektion, då tidigare immuniseringsförsök ledde till svårare infektion istället för hälsa hos deltagarna. Uppkomst av antikroppar som gynnar infektion (AGI) med RSV istället för att ge skydd har angetts som en trolig förklaring till vaccinmisslyckandet, och ett liknande förhållande har föreslagits gälla för Denguevirus. Epidemiologin vid RSV-infektioner är ofullständigt känd, och huruvida dess två varianter, RSV A och B, samverkar med eller motverkar varandra är inte studerat. Vi befarar på goda grunder, precis som vad fallet verkar vara för Denguevirusinfektioner, att antikroppar mot en subtyp (t.ex. RSV-A) kan ge svårare förlopp vid infektion med den andra subtypen (t.ex. RSV-A).Det aktuella projektet har som syfte att utveckla en verksam behandling mot RSV. Vi har upptäckt en substans (c52), som är verksam mot RSV i cellkultursförsök i låg koncentration och som har låg toxicitet (giftighetsgrad). Substansen betecknas som en läkemedelskandidat. Vi vill därför utveckla c52 till ett framtida läkemedel mot RSV för global användning. För att möjliggöra en sådan läkemedelsutveckling behövs mer kunskap om epidemiologin vid RSV-infektion.I Mocambique har nyligen en omfattande kartläggning skett av RSV-infektion hos barn Våra preliminära resultat talar för att c52 motverkar RSV-infektion genom att blockera ett humant protein, nämligen receptorn för tillväxtfaktorn EGF. Fyndet är lovande eftersom det är svårt att utveckla resistens mot sådana antimikrobiella läkemedel som använder värdproteiner. Å andra sidan kan naturlig resistens förekomma om värdmutationer föreligger. Vi avser därför att genetiskt kartlägga EGF-receptorn hos patienterna i våra prospektiva studier för att undersöka om alla RSV-infekterade kan komma att ha nytta av den nya behandlingen.Vidare vill vi försöka förstå den bristfälliga immuniteten vid RSV-infektion, vilket skapat problem vid vaccinutveckling. Vi vill undersöka om antikroppar efter naturlig RSV-infektion har en skyddande effekt, eller om AGI föreligger. Av särskilt intresse är att fastställa sådana gynnande effekter av antikroppar mot RSV-A för infektion av cellkultur med RSV-B, och vice versa. Någon typ-specifik RSV-serologi av detta slag finns ej tillgänglig idag, och ett av projektets delmål är att utveckla sådan metodik. Metodutvecklingen ger ”på köpet” en möjlighet att rena fram sådana RSV-typspecifika antikroppar för att undersöka deras funktion m.a.p. AGI.Slutligen vill vi ytterligare klarlägga verkningsmekanismen för c52. Detta sker genom speciella cellkulturer där humana celler odlas så att de liknar det normalt ytskikt i luftträdet, vilket är RSVs målområde i kroppen. Vidare ämnar vi testa c52 i djurmodell, eftersom en gynnsam effekt in vivo är en förutsättning för vidare läkemedelsutveckling.Projektet baseras på ett mångårigt och fruktbart epidemiologiskt samarbete mellan Folkhälsomyndigheten/KI och forskare i Mocambique. Genom att kombinera detta samarbete med expertis på virusdiagnostik och framställning av antivirala läkemedel har vi goda utsikter att lyckas med vårt mål att förbättra både behandling av infektion med RSV och att öka förståelsen för hur antikroppssvaret fungerar mot detta virus. Projektet kan komma att förbättra barns hälsa i låginkomstländer som Mocambique.

The morbidity/mortality is considerable, not least in Sub-Saharan Africa. No effective treatment or vaccine exist. We will develop anti-RSV therapy from drug discovery onwards through epidemiological investigation by collaboration with Mozambique.Purpose and aims: i/ to understand the epidemiology of RSV respiratory infection in children in Mozambique and in Sweden, as groundwork for future antiviral treatment; ii/ to identify viral and host factors including antibody respone of importance for pathogenesis of RSV infection; and iii/to elucidate the efficacy, safety and molecular mechanism of action of our lead anti-RSV compound.Work plan: We have formed a research network within infectious disease epidemiology and drug discovery with collaborators from Maputo, Stockholm and Gothenburg. We will analyze retrospective data from our studies om respiratory infections dominated by RSV, and perform prospective studies in both countries, with focus on genetic diversity in both pathogen and host, and on antibody responses that might lead to more  severe symptoms. The methodology includes molecular epidemiology and diagnostics in humans, as well as cell biology and chemistry to define drug mechanisms. Novel seroassays will be developed.

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. De drivkrafter som finns bakom småbrukares beslut att sälja djur och vilka djur som säljs, är därför viktiga att förstå.I detta projekt kommer vi att undersöka hur olika aktörer påverkar djurägares beslut att investera i djurhälsa. Vi kommer här att använda oss av så kallad deltagardriven forskning, där djurägare och andra aktörer inom djurhälsa själva aktivt deltar i till exempel diskussionsgrupper och intervjuer. Dessutom kommer vi studera orsaker till dödsfall hos får och get genom intervjuer, fältobduktioner och molekylärdiagnostik. Vi kommer vidare att undersöka de drivkrafter som finns bakom småbrukares beslut att sälja djur och vilka djur de beslutar sig för att sälja.Projektet syftar framför allt till att skapa och stärka forskningssamarbeten mellan svenska forskare och forskare i Tanzania och Zambia. Vi har idag redan goda samarbeten i regionen som vi vill bygga vidare på. Projektet samlar forskare med expertis inom både veterinärmedicin och samhällsvetenskap. Det tvärvetenskapliga samarbetet i projektet bidrar till mer lokalt relevanta och tillförlitliga forskningsresultat. Resultaten kommer att leda till ökad förståelse för hur vi ska få friskare får och getter och bekämpa smittsamma djursjukdomar, vilket är viktiga led i fattigdomsbekämpning och tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning.

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. De drivkrafter som finns bakom småbrukares beslut att sälja djur och vilka djur som säljs, är därför viktiga att förstå.I detta projekt kommer vi att undersöka hur olika aktörer påverkar djurägares beslut att investera i djurhälsa. Vi kommer här att använda oss av så kallad deltagardriven forskning, där djurägare och andra aktörer inom djurhälsa själva aktivt deltar i till exempel diskussionsgrupper och intervjuer. Dessutom kommer vi studera orsaker till dödsfall hos får och get genom intervjuer, fältobduktioner och molekylärdiagnostik. Vi kommer vidare att undersöka de drivkrafter som finns bakom småbrukares beslut att sälja djur och vilka djur de beslutar sig för att sälja.Projektet syftar framför allt till att skapa och stärka forskningssamarbeten mellan svenska forskare och forskare i Tanzania och Zambia. Vi har idag redan goda samarbeten i regionen som vi vill bygga vidare på. Projektet samlar forskare med expertis inom både veterinärmedicin och samhällsvetenskap. Det tvärvetenskapliga samarbetet i projektet bidrar till mer lokalt relevanta och tillförlitliga forskningsresultat. Resultaten kommer att leda till ökad förståelse för hur vi ska få friskare får och getter och bekämpa smittsamma djursjukdomar, vilket är viktiga led i fattigdomsbekämpning och tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning.

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.

It will allow African scientists to engage in applied bio-photonics with applications relevant to their local communities within the areas of medicine, agriculture and environment. The proposal is based on the combination of advanced knowledge of bio-photonics and laser diagnostics together with the flourishing 3D printing / Do-It-Yourself craftsmanship and Open Source Hardware comunity. Several low-cost realistic instruments are proposed, all exceeding the sophistication and applications of conventional and commercially available instruments. A small taskforce specialized in laser instrumentation at Lund University will prepare and ship necessary components and tools for a yearly workshops in Africa. The workshops are organized by the African Spectral Imaging Network (AFSIN) and include participants from laboratories from ten African countries. The participants will be trained to build and use their own scientific instruments and following the workshops, they bring the instruments to their laboratories where they form the basis for master and doctorate thesis work within applied physics. Producing African doctors in their respective communities is the future for furthering higher education in this region. Enabling them with realistic instrument craftsmanship will have a multiplicative effect and impact Det är ingen nyhet att utvecklingen i Afrika, trots snabba framsteg, fortfarande ligger bakom resten av världen. En av de främsta orsakerna till detta är att kontinenten plågas av sjukdomar som rör både människor och många livsuppehållande grödor. En annan mindre uppenbar orsak som hindrar utvecklingen är att många högutbildade individer tenderar att lämna sitt hemland eftersom bristen av vetenskaplig infrastruktur gör att forskare söker möjligheter utomlands. Även om Afrikanska forskare återvänder efter utomlandsstudier så saknas kostsam utrusning, vilket leder till att deras kunskap inte utnyttjas till fullo.Lösningen till båda dessa problem ligger i att främja möjligheter för unga forskare att utveckla egna verktyg som kan producera konkurrenskraftiga vetenskapliga resultat på plats i sina hemländer.

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. Theoretically the research contributes to advances in gender, planning and marine conservation; as well as to principled governance. Also it contributes to social-ecological systems analyses in which the heterogeneity of resource users is first expressed by gender. A cross-country comparison of MPAs in Tanzania and Mexico will be done. This design allows to keep the ecological aspects constant while social and cultural vary. The country comparison illuminates aspects to create better and inclusive coastal governance. This type of research has been placed recently at the research frontier. 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.

Does it matter to the ways we understand, prevent and redress the harms of rape that some occur in zones of relative peace, and some in zones of active armed conflict? Indeed, there has been a marked divergence in the explanatory frames for explaining rape in peacetime in relation to wartime rape among scholars and advocates alike. In this project, we address this question through in-depth studies of the forms, contexts and logics of sexual violence in four different sites, two of which are clearly deeply entrenched warzones (Uvira Provence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Kashmir, in India) and two that are characterized by long-time peaceful relations and the lack of armed conflict (Mai-Ndombe in the DRC and South Delhi, India). Drawing on the uniquely grounded experience of the investigators, the project will thus produce novel insights on the continuum and non-continuum of sexual violence between war and peace. In addition to providing original empirical data on how the forms, contexts and logics of sexual violence differ and converge by collecting original data in two countries (the DRC and India), it also seeks to enhance our understanding of the frames that limits our abilities/willingness to note and address continuances of violence.

Hur kan vi förstå dessa handlingar?Försöken att minska sexuellt våld är helt avhängig av en bättre förståelse för de former det tar, samt de sammanhang där det förekommer och logiken bakom våldet. Fram tills nu har forskning kring sexuellt våld präglats av en stark föreställning om att det är stora skillnader mellan det sexuella våld som begås i fred och det som begås i krig. Sexuellt våld i krig anses som fundamentalt annorlunda från sexuellt våld i fredstid. Det framställs inte bara som mer våldsamt och förödande, utan dess logik anses också ofta som helt annorlunda jämfört med sexuellt våld i fred. I krig framställs det ofta som ett vapen eller medel för att uppnå politiska och militära mål. Denna föreställning präglar även hur forskning bedrivs. Som poängterats under senare tid finns det dock mycket lite empirisk forskning som stödjer denna föreställning om skillnad. Än viktigare, det finns stora risker med att denna uppdelning döljer likheter i sexuellt våld i krig och fred som kan försvåra våra ansträngningar att motarbeta och förhindra våldet.Detta projekt kommer att bidra med ny unik kunskap om likheter och skillnader i sexuellt våld i krig och fred genom att kartlägga och analysera det sexuella våldets former och logik i Demokratiska Republiken Kongo och Indien.

Women and children, especially in low-income settings, are exposed to several toxic compounds, including arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) from food and polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAHs) from burning of fossil fuels for cooking and heating, many of which have endocrine disrupting properties. We therefore aim to clarify if early-life exposure to As, Cd and PAHs is affecting growth and puberty development in adolescence. This will be accomplished by studies in a mother-child cohort (MINIMat) in rural Bangladesh in collaboration with several universities and icddr,b, Bangladesh. Exposure to As and Cd is already measured in urine from mothers in pregnancy and their children at 10 years. Measurements of PAHs will be conducted in the corresponding bio-banked urine samples (n=1000). Data on puberty from 11-14 years and data on growth from birth to pre-pubertal age, during puberty, and at 15 years is availible. In addition, we will also measure different hormones related to growth and reproduction in blood collected at 15 years. Consequences of co-exposures to metals and PAHs will be evaluated in combination with effect modification by gender and nutrition. This 4-year project will provide insight into common environmental exposures and effects on adolescent health in low-income settings, enabling future public health strategies to reduce exposures and improve health. Exponering för toxiska ämnen under känsliga perioder i utvecklingen, till exempel under fosterstadiet och barndomen, kan orsaka hälsoeffekter senare i livet. Kvinnor och barn utgör därför känsliga grupper i befolkningen, speciellt i utvecklingsländer där exponeringen ibland är hög för vissa miljöföroreningar och kemikalier och många är dessutom undernärda vilket kan bidra till en ökad känslighet för effekter av olika miljöföroreningar. Många av dessa miljöföroreningar är klassificerade som endokrinstörande ämnen, dvs att de efterliknar kroppens egna hormoner och kan därigenom störa kroppens normal hormonella reglering, vilket i sin tur kan ge allvarliga effekter på barns utveckling så som hämmad tillväxt och/eller förtidig eller försenad pubertetsutveckling. Detta är i sin tur kända riskfaktorer för att drabbas av olika kroniska sjukdomar senare i livet. Förekomsten av kroniska sjukdomar som till exempel härtkärlsjukdom, cancer och diabetes har ökat kraftig i olika utvecklingsländer under de senaste åren. I dagsläget är kunskapen rörande många endokrinstörandeämnen och eventuella effekter på tillväxt och pubertetsutveckling begränsad till experimentella djurstudier och ett fåtal småskaliga humanstudier. I detta 4-åriga forskningsprojekt kommer vi att undersöka om exponering för tre olika endokrinstörande ämnen, två olika metaller (arsenik och kadmium) och polycykliska aromatiska kolväten (PAHer), under fosterstadiet och barndomen kan påverka barns tillväxt och pubertetsutveckling under tonåren. Dessa studier kommer att utföras i en mamma-barn kohort kallad MIMIMat som har etablerats i ett lanligt område i Bangladesh genom ett samarbete mellan flera olika univeristet och icddr,b i Bangladesh som är ett stort sjukhus i huvudstaden Dhaka. Mammorna rekryterades till studien redan i början av graviditeten och därefter har vi följt upp deras barn vid upprepade tillfällen och den senaste uppföljningen vid 15-års ålder kommer att avslutas under hösten 2018. Vi har tidigare visat att mammorna och deras barn är exponerade för arsenik och kadmium via mat och dricksvatten och att dessa exponeringar har hämmat barnens tillväxt upp till 5 års ålder. I en mindre pilotstudie har vi även kunnat påvisa att mammorna har exponerats för höga halter av PAHer under graviditeten. Den troliga källan till denna PAH exponering är eldning av fossila bränslen i hemmet för uppvärmning och matlagning, vilket kan resultera i höga halter i luften både inomhus och utomhus. En del av PAH exponering kommer troligen även via maten. Inom ramen för MINIMat kohorten har utförlig information om nutrition, olika hälsoparametrar samt urin och blodprover samlats från de gravida mammorna och deras barn under upprepade tillfällen. Exponeringen för arsenik och kadmium har redan mätts i urinprover från 1500 mammor under graviteten och från deras barnen vid 10-års ålder. I detta projekt kommer vi även att mäta halterna av olika nedbrytningsprodukter till PAH i 1000 stycken av dessa uinprover som finns sparade i en bio-bank. Dessa mätningar kommer att användas som ett mått på exponeringen under forsterperioden och barndomen. När barnen var 11-14 år så samlde man in data om pubertetsutveckling. Information om barnens längd och vikt har samlats in vid upprepade tillfällen från födseln tills innan puberteten, vid två tillfällen under puberteten, och ytterligare en gång vid 15 års. Vi 15 års ålder tog man även ett blodprov och i detta blodprov kommer vi att analysera olika hormoner som är relaterade till tillväxt och reproduktion. Under utvärderingen av datan kommer vi att utreda samband mellan varje enskild exponering samt en kombination av samtliga exponeringar och de olika utfallen och vi kommer även att ta hänsyn till kända känslighetsfakorer som barnens kön och nutritionsstatus. Den övergripande målsättningen med detta projekt är att kartlägga och identifiera betydande exponeringar för olika miljöföreningar som kan leda till försämrad utveckling under ungdomsåren och därmed öka risken för att drabbas av sjukdom och sämre hälsa senare i livet. Med kunskap om vilka exponeringar som har störst betydelse för befolkningens hälsotillstånd kan strategier för kostnadseffektiva och hållbara åtgärder föreslås som på sikt kan leda till minskad exponering och förbättrad folkhälsa.

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”).

Economic historians have shown that the current economic boom is not unique. Africa has experienced several longer periods of economic growth in the 20th century, driven by increased value of exports of non-refined commodities and minerals. These booms were followed by longer periods of economic stagnation. Why were previous booms not sustained? There are important historical lessons to learn from past failures. We hypothesis that the failed booms were due to weak intra- and inter-sectoral linkages between the export and the domestic sectors. We test our hypothesis by using a modified version of existing theories of linkages and economic development that we place in a political economy framework. To identify the linkages we use two well-known methods in economic history that have never before been applied to Africa, i.e. indexing economic activity and measure changes in the occupational structures. We move on and compare the historical studies with current cases to identify similarities and differences. The project will contribute both to research and policy. Analsying the interaction between export and domestic sectors and how policies affect these enable us to identify accurate policy measures to ensure that current and future export-booms in Africa are translated into broad based economic development and welfare gains for the African populations. Under senare år har flera länder i Afrika uppvisat hög ekonomisk tillväxt. Är detta ett tecken på att kontinenten äntligen håller på att växa ur fattigdom? Perioder av stark tillväxt i Afrika är inget nytt fenomen. Ekonomisk-historiker har identifierar flera perioder av tillväxt i olika afrikanska länder under 1900-talet, ledd av ökade inkomster från exporten av icke-förädlade tropiska produkter och/eller mineraler. Vad de har gemensamt är att de följts av längre perioder av ekonomisk stagnation. Hur kan vi förklara varför tidigare perioder av tillväxt inte varit hållbara? Vår utgångspunkt är att svaret på frågan är av relevans för bedömningen av hållbarheten i den nuvarande ekonomiska utvecklingen i Afrika. Genom att lära oss av de historiska misslyckandena kan vi identifiera vad som behöver göras för att inte upprepas. Vår hypotes är att de historiska misslyckandena berodde på svaga länkeffekter mellan exportsektorerna och den inhemska ekonomin. Istället för att bidra till en hållbar ekonomisk utveckling leder exportboomerna till en förstärkning av så kallade dualistiska strukturer där det ökade värdet på exporten koncentreras till exportsektorn. När den globala efterfrågan sviktar så försvagas exportsektorn och på grund av att boomen inte lyckats skapa en ökad diversifiering av ekonomin så innebär det att landets ekonomi stagnerar. Mycket har tidigare skrivits om exportsektorerna och dess roll för den ekonomsika utvecklingen i 1900-talets Afrika. Det här projektet är emellertid det första som systematiskt kommer att analysera effekterna på de lokala ekonomierna över tid och rum. En avgörande utmaning för ett projekt som detta är att analysera vad som händer i den lokala ekonomin. Vi prövar detta genom att använda en modifierad version av existerande ekonomisk teori om länkeffekter och ekonomisk utveckling som vi sätter i ett politisk-ekonomiskt ramverk. Anledningen till det senare är att det är fullt möjligt att de potentiella länkarna mellan sektorer är starka men att förd politik försvagar dem. Vår utgångspunkt är att den förda politiken är delvis en effekt på relationen mellan staten och styrkan bland de intressegrupper som representerar olika delar av ekonomin. Brist på data i allmänheten och det faktum att det stora flertalet är involverade i den informella ekonomin där traditionell ekonomisk data är obefintlig gör att vi måste tänka innovativt. Databristen gör att vi inte kommer att kunna identifiera länkeffekterna direkt. Istället får vi använda oss av indirekta sätt att studera relationerna mellan de ekonomiska sektorerna. Vi kombinerar två metoder vanligt förekommande i ekonomisk historia men aldrig prövad för Afrika, nämligen skattningar av sysselsättningsstruktur med indexering av ekonomisk aktivitet. Den mest pålitliga information för förändringar i den informella ekonomin utgörs av antalet anställda. Vi använder oss av dessa data och skapar tidsserier för att se de relativa förändringarna i de olika sektorerna i formella ekonomin. För den informella ekonomin så får vi använda oss av indirekt information. I ett första steg skapar tidserier av data som har en direkt koppling till ekonomisk aktivitet, t ex transporter av varor., jordbruksavkastning, jordareal under jordbruksproduktion. Rör dessa sig i samma riktning så är det ett tecken på allmän ökad ekonomisk aktivitet. Genom statistiska metoder kan vi sedan skatta i vilken utsträckning de rör sig i samma riktning och vilka sektorer som förklarar den största delen av den ekonomiska aktiviteten. På det sättet kan vi analysera hur den informella sektorn påverkas och vilka sektorer som påverkas mest. De historiska fallen använder vi sedan som utgångspunkt när vi analyserar dagens ekonomiska utvecklingsprocesser. Projektet bidrar till både forskning och policy. Genom att analysera länkeffekterna och politikens påverkan på dessa skapar vi ett evidensbaserat underlag för politiker och biståndsgivare att utforma policy som möjliggör att effekterna av dagens exporttillväxt sprider sig till andra sektorer. Detta är grunden för en hållbar ekonomisk utveckling karakteriserad av minskad fattigdom och ökade ekonomiska möjligheter för det stora flertalet.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2018-04341-1 Sweden Are current high economic growth rates in several African countries a sign that parts of Africa is growing out of poverty? Economic historians have shown that the current economic boom is not unique. Africa has experienced several longer periods of economic growth in the 20th century, driven by increased value of exports of non-refined commodities and minerals. These booms were followed by longer periods of economic stagnation. Why were previous booms not sustained? There are important historical lessons to learn from past failures. We hypothesis that the failed booms were due to weak intra- and inter-sectoral linkages between the export and the domestic sectors. We test our hypothesis by using a modified version of existing theories of linkages and economic development that we place in a political economy framework. To identify the linkages we use two well-known methods in economic history that have never before been applied to Africa, i.e. indexing economic activity and measure changes in the occupational structures. We move on and compare the historical studies with current cases to identify similarities and differences. The project will contribute both to research and policy. Analsying the interaction between export and domestic sectors and how policies affect these enable us to identify accurate policy measures to ensure that current and future export-booms in Africa are translated into broad based economic development and welfare gains for the African populations. Under senare år har flera länder i Afrika uppvisat hög ekonomisk tillväxt. Är detta ett tecken på att kontinenten äntligen håller på att växa ur fattigdom? Perioder av stark tillväxt i Afrika är inget nytt fenomen. Ekonomisk-historiker har identifierar flera perioder av tillväxt i olika afrikanska länder under 1900-talet, ledd av ökade inkomster från exporten av icke-förädlade tropiska produkter och/eller mineraler. Vad de har gemensamt är att de följts av längre perioder av ekonomisk stagnation. Hur kan vi förklara varför tidigare perioder av tillväxt inte varit hållbara? Vår utgångspunkt är att svaret på frågan är av relevans för bedömningen av hållbarheten i den nuvarande ekonomiska utvecklingen i Afrika. Genom att lära oss av de historiska misslyckandena kan vi identifiera vad som behöver göras för att inte upprepas. Vår hypotes är att de historiska misslyckandena berodde på svaga länkeffekter mellan exportsektorerna och den inhemska ekonomin. Istället för att bidra till en hållbar ekonomisk utveckling leder exportboomerna till en förstärkning av så kallade dualistiska strukturer där det ökade värdet på exporten koncentreras till exportsektorn. När den globala efterfrågan sviktar så försvagas exportsektorn och på grund av att boomen inte lyckats skapa en ökad diversifiering av ekonomin så innebär det att landets ekonomi stagnerar. Mycket har tidigare skrivits om exportsektorerna och dess roll för den ekonomsika utvecklingen i 1900-talets Afrika. Det här projektet är emellertid det första som systematiskt kommer att analysera effekterna på de lokala ekonomierna över tid och rum. En avgörande utmaning för ett projekt som detta är att analysera vad som händer i den lokala ekonomin. Vi prövar detta genom att använda en modifierad version av existerande ekonomisk teori om länkeffekter och ekonomisk utveckling som vi sätter i ett politisk-ekonomiskt ramverk. Anledningen till det senare är att det är fullt möjligt att de potentiella länkarna mellan sektorer är starka men att förd politik försvagar dem. Vår utgångspunkt är att den förda politiken är delvis en effekt på relationen mellan staten och styrkan bland de intressegrupper som representerar olika delar av ekonomin. Brist på data i allmänheten och det faktum att det stora flertalet är involverade i den informella ekonomin där traditionell ekonomisk data är obefintlig gör att vi måste tänka innovativt. Databristen gör att vi inte kommer att kunna identifiera länkeffekterna direkt. Istället får vi använda oss av indirekta sätt att studera relationerna mellan de ekonomiska sektorerna. Vi kombinerar två metoder vanligt förekommande i ekonomisk historia men aldrig prövad för Afrika, nämligen skattningar av sysselsättningsstruktur med indexering av ekonomisk aktivitet. Den mest pålitliga information för förändringar i den informella ekonomin utgörs av antalet anställda. Vi använder oss av dessa data och skapar tidsserier för att se de relativa förändringarna i de olika sektorerna i formella ekonomin. För den informella ekonomin så får vi använda oss av indirekt information. I ett första steg skapar tidserier av data som har en direkt koppling till ekonomisk aktivitet, t ex transporter av varor., jordbruksavkastning, jordareal under jordbruksproduktion. Rör dessa sig i samma riktning så är det ett tecken på allmän ökad ekonomisk aktivitet. Genom statistiska metoder kan vi sedan skatta i vilken utsträckning de rör sig i samma riktning och vilka sektorer som förklarar den största delen av den ekonomiska aktiviteten. På det sättet kan vi analysera hur den informella sektorn påverkas och vilka sektorer som påverkas mest. De historiska fallen använder vi sedan som utgångspunkt när vi analyserar dagens ekonomiska utvecklingsprocesser. Projektet bidrar till både forskning och policy. Genom att analysera länkeffekterna och politikens påverkan på dessa skapar vi ett evidensbaserat underlag för politiker och biståndsgivare att utforma policy som möjliggör att effekterna av dagens exporttillväxt sprider sig till andra sektorer. Detta är grunden för en hållbar ekonomisk utveckling karakteriserad av minskad fattigdom och ökade ekonomiska möjligheter för det stora flertalet.

We aim to initiate research to prevent this high number of stillbirths and neonatal deaths by forming a consortium of researchers working in large referral hospitals in East Africa. We aim to define and innovate interventions and perform implementation research focused on the recently published new intrapartum care guidelines of the World Health Organisations. Respectful intrapartum care shall be in the centre, and we will assess the potential of lactate point-of-care testing to diagnose hypoxia and fetal monitoring using the new Moyo Fetal Heart Rate Monitor.Network partners are Makerere University and Iganga hospital, Uganda, Muhimbili University Hospital and Aga Khan University, Tanzania, the College of Medicine in Blantyre, Malawi and Hospital Central Maputo, Mozambique. During the two-year period for which we apply for funding we aim to 1) innovate implementation packages to improve the provision of safe and respectful intrapartum care; 2) review present systems of perinatal data collection or e-registries in identified hospitals 3; investigate into the feasibility of improved diagnosis of peripartum hypoxia using umbilical cord lactate measurement; and 4) prepare jointly research questions and applications. This network is primarily targeting the funding opportunity of the upcoming implementation science call for maternal and child health of Horizon 2020. Globalt är mer än två miljoner barn dödfödda eller dör strax efter födelsen. Vi planerar nu att bygga upp ett forskningsnätverk mellan universitetssjukhus i östra och södra Afrika i syfte att arbeta fram modeller för förbättringsarbete av förlossningsvården.Projektet utgår från hälsosystemforskning där vi kommer att utforma nya åtgärdspaket i linje med WHO’s nyligen publicerades rekommendationer för förlossningsvård. Vi avser vidare att utvärderas landspecifika och generella processmått som möjliggör jämförelser. Mer specifikt kommer vi utveckla åtgärdspaket och därvid först bedöma användbarheten och effekten av laktat (mjölksyra) mätning i navelsträngsblod för att diagnostisera syrebrist samt användning av ett nytt enkelt instrument, Moyo Fetal Heart Rate Monitor, för fosterövervakning. De som ingår i nätverket är Makerere University och Iganga Hospital, Uganda, Muhimbili University Hospital och Aga Khan University, Tanzania, Eduardo Mondlane University och Hospital Central Maputo, Mozambique samt the College of Medicine i Blantyre, Malawi och Karolinska Institutet samt Uppsala University, Sverge Vi ser nätverkssamarbetet mellan länderna och universitetsjukhusen som en nyckel till projektets framgång så det akademiska och kliniska utbytet ökar förutsättningar för dialog och erfarenhetsutbyte och därmed bidra till kunskapsutvecklingen. 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).

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.

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. Projektet kommer att förlita sig på antropologisk forskningsmetodik såsom djupintervjuer och informella samtal, deltagande observation, insamling av livshistorier och fallstudier.

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. Projektet kommer att förlita sig på antropologisk forskningsmetodik såsom djupintervjuer och informella samtal, deltagande observation, insamling av livshistorier och fallstudier.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

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.

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.

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. Implementation will involve research exchange, workshops and conferences. 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 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.

Poor case detection is a critical gap in TB care, where 40% of the world’s 10 million cases are not detected (WHO 2017). Many of these patients are lost in the pre-treatment period; up to 83% in Uganda (Shete 2017). A major reason for this is the social and economic barriers that impede access to care (Shete 2015). Accordingly, WHO’s End TB Strategy proposes the use of social protection interventions as part of TB care (Uplekar 2015). How best to implement and scale-up these interventions is still unknown.The purpose of our research is to develop an evidence base for the effectiveness of social protection interventions in enabling completion of diagnostic evaluation and treatment initiation for TB patients in Uganda. We will use formative mixed-methods research to identify social and economic barriers that impede access and adherence to care. We will design and evaluate a context specific, multi-faceted social protection intervention to overcome these barriers. Our outcomes will be the proportion of: (1) diagnosed patients who initiate TB treatment; (2) TB affected households who suffer catastrophic costs. Working closely with the Ugandan government, our results will be used to effect changes in health and development policy to improve health outcomes for TB patients, and to reduce the socio-economic risks for this vulnerable population. Tuberkulos (TB) är den infektionssjukdom som dödar flest människor i världen. Ca 10 miljoner insjuknar varje år, ca 1,7 miljoner dör. TB är vanligast bland de fattigaste i fattiga länder. WHO uppskattar att ca 4 miljoner av de som insjuknar varje år inte får korrekt diagnos och behandling. De flesta av dessa dör eller lever med en kronisk smittsam och funktionsnedsättande infektion med grava socioekonomiska konsekvenser.Vår tidigare forskning har visat att många personer med TB som söker vård inte lyckas fullfölja vårdkedjan.  I Uganda återvänder upp till 80% av patienter som testas för TB inte för att få reda på testresultaten och blir därför inte korrekt diagnostiserade. De kan därmed inte påbörja den 6-månaders antibiotikabehandling (längre för personer med antibiotikaresistent TB) som annars har mycket god effekt. Även bland de som får resultaten är det en stor andel som inte påbörjar behandlingen. Till och med i vårdinrättningar med tillgång till de senaste snabbdiagnostesterna påbörjar 20-40% av patienterna inte behandlingen.Vi har visat att en viktig orsak till detta är socioekonomiska barriärer. Såväl sjukdomen i sig som den tid man tvingas spendera inom sjukvården för diagnos och behandling innebär ofta ett stort produktivitets- och inkomstbortfall för individ och familj. Vanligtvis förloras 3-4 månaders inkomst eller motsvarande 30% av årsinkomsten för en familj, även när själva behandlingen är kostnadsfri för patienten. För TB patienter som ofta redan från början lever i en mycket prekär ekonomisk situation kan därför sjukdomen och dess behandling leda till katastrofala ekonomiska konsekvenser. Beslutet att påbörja TB behandling innebär således ofta ett svårt beslut som kräver avvägningar om alternativkostnader för att spendera tid inom sjukvården.Ekonomiskt och socialt stöd till TB patienter har därför förslagits som en viktig del av behandlingsstrategin, vilket kan leda till såväl bättre följsamhet som till mindre allvarliga socioekonomiska konsekvenser. Det finns begränsad tidigare forskning på detta område och flera frågor kvarstår kring hur sådana interventioner bäst ska designas och implementeras.I detta projekt kommer vi att utveckla och genomföra en pilotstudie av en innovativ modell för socioekonomiskt stöd. Modellen tas fram baserat på en detaljerad kartläggning av socioekonomiska barriärer med hjälp av socialepidemiologiska och beteendeekonomiska analyser. Studien kommer genomföras i Uganda, ett TB-endemiskt låginkomstland. Resultaten från de formative studierna kommer att användas för att lägga grunden till en kontextuellt lämplig randomiserad kontrollerad studie. Projektet har fyra målsättningar:Att identifiera sociala och ekonomiska barriärer för vårdsökande och fullföljande av vårdkedjan för personer med TB i Uganda.Att designa en innovativ och lokalt anpassad multi-dimensionell ekonomisk och social intervention för TB patienter för att förbättra vårdtillgänglighet och behandlingsutfall samt för att minska de negativa ekonomiska och sociala konsekvenserna av sjukdomen.Att genomföra en pilotstudie för att testa genomförbarheten av interventionen samt preliminärt utvärdera dess effektivitet.Att i samarbete med det nationella tuberkulosprogrammet i Uganda genomföra policy-dialoger för att förbereda en kontextuellt lämplig randomiserad kontrollerad studie, vars resultat kan leda till en hållbar policyförändring som kan implementeras nationellt.Vi kommer att använda en kombination av kvantitativa och kvalitativa metoder, inklusive intervjuer av TB patienter. Vi kommer dessutom engagera lokala beslutsfattare i tolkning av data, vid utvecklingen av pilotstudien, samt i policydialog och planering av den större randomiserade studien.Det tvärvetenskapliga teamet består av forskare med kompletterande expertis gällande TB, hälso- och sjukvårdsorganisation, global hälsa och sociala skyddsnät, samt olika metoder, inklusive epidemiologi, kvalitativ metod, policy analys och hälsoekonomi. Vi kommer publicera resultaten i prominenta internationella tidskrifter och vid internationella konferenser, samt ta fram populärvetenskapliga sammanfattningar för beslutsfattare. Resultaten kommer även att spridas genom SPARKS (the Social Protection Action Research and Knowledge Sharing Network), ett nätverk för forskning om sociala skyddsnät och hälsa som drivs av Institutionen för Folkhälsovetenskap vid KI i samarbete med WHO och ett flertal forskningsinstitutioner i låg-, medel och höginkomstländer.

It focuses on the role of gender in military reforms in two post-conflict states: Liberia and Mali. 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.

The result will provide guidance to policy and decision makers on how resilience can be strengthened in the affected communities. This will contribute to reduced poverty, strengthened resilience and improved security (livelihood, water, food and political) in the region. This in turn is likely to reduce the need for forced migration within and beyond the region.The research network will provide an important non-political science based dialogue platform among the eastern Nile basin countries, with the ability to balance the infected political dialogue linked to the Nile basin water resources. Swedish research and policy support on water diplomacy will be strengthened and the ability of Swedish actors to have tangible and positive influence on transboundary water dialogues in the Nile basin will be improved.The research will be implemented through a series of joint research planning and proposal writing meetings in the Nile basin and in Sweden (e.g participation in the World Water Week in Stockholm).

Östra Nilens avrinningsområde omfattar länderna Etiopien, Sudan och Egypten. Denna del av Nilen, som också kallas den Blå Nilen, står för den absoluta merparten av det vatten som slutligen mynnar i Medelhavet. På vägen mot havet används vatten till en rad olika ändamål såsom vattenkraft, bevattning, industri- och hushållsändamål. Länderna som delar Nilens vatten har hittills haft svårt att komma överens om hur denna gemensamma resurs ska fördelas och användas länderna emellan. Detta har lett till ett frostigt politiskt samtalsklimat dem emellan.Syftet med det föreslagna forskningsnätverket är att bygga upp en forsknings-plattform för samtal länderna emellan som ligger utanför den politiska sfären och som kan arbete på rent vetenskaplig basis med att öka förståelsen för Nilens vattenresurser.Inledningsvis kommer den internationella forskargruppen att fokusera på hur klimatdrivna katastrofer i form av långvarig torka och översvämningar påverkar samhällen i avrinningsområdet. Framförallt kommer forskningen att försöka klargöra hur sårbara delar av samhället, fattiga, äldre, kvinnor och barn har påverkats och förväntas påverkas i framtiden i takt med att den globala uppvärmningen ökar variabiliteten i nederbörden i tid och rum samt förväntas öka antalet vattenkatastrofer. Forskargruppen kommer också att söka utröna i vilken omfattning och på vilket sätt som den klimatdrivna negativa påverkan på samhället leder till att människor i högre omfattning mister liv, leverne och bostad och tvingas till flykt inom eller utom regionen och bidrar därmed till de stora flyktingströmmar som präglar regionen. Lärdomarna kommer att ligga till grund för rekommendationer till policy och beslutsfattare i regionen och kommer att på sikt bidra till ökad resiliens och fattigdomsminskning i sårbara samhällen.Forskningssamarbetet kommer att ledas av "Forskar-skolan för internationellt vattensamarbete" vid Avdelningen för freds och konfliktforskning, Uppsala universitet och som är en del av UNESCO kategori-II centret "International Centre for Water Cooperation" (ICWC) vid Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI).

This has resulted in reduced farming based family income. As a consequence, food security remains a main challenge although the country is rich in crop genetic resources. 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.

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.

This technology, urine dehydration, recovers nutrients present in urine while removing excess water from it in order to produce a hygienic, dry, and commercial-quality fertiliser. The overall goal of this project will be to design a urine dehydrator that functions continuously, for a period of at least 30 days, to safely dry the urine excreted by a family of four and produce a dry powder with 15% nitrogen. To develop this technology, three complementary work packages are proposed. They will investigate the: (i) dehydration techniques and process optimisation; (ii) the mitigation of human and environmental health risks; and (iii) sustainability potential of the technology and its field testing in Bolivia. The work will be conducted by researchers from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and the University of San-Simón (Bolivia) over 3 years, between 2019 and 2021. A urine drying unit requires no sophisticated mechanisms, it is easy to use and maintain, and can be built using off-the-shelf products. We estimate that a unit serving a family of four will cost less than US$ 40. The technology thus has potential to revolutionise sanitation in developing countries. Avloppet från över fyra miljarder människor släpps obehandlat ut i miljön utan någon som helst behandling. Dessa utsläpp orsakar övergödning, försurning och spridning av sjukdom och läkemedelsrester i våra vattendrag. I informella bosättningar, lågkvalitativa bostadshem och överfulla urbana slumområden där toaletter tenderar att installeras utan nödvändig sanitetstjänst är detta mer standard än undantag. Den näringsrikaste fraktionen i avloppet är urinen, men den består av mer än 95% vatten. Björns Vinnerås laboratoriegrupp utvecklar en ny behandlingsteknik som stabiliserar och sedan torkar urinen till ett fast, hygieniskt säkert gödselmedel med hög kvävekoncentration (>15%). Det övergripande målet med detta projekt är att vidareutveckla konceptet med uppströms behandling av urinen genom att utvärdera om stabiliserings- och uttorkningstekniken fungerar kontinuerligt under minst 30 dagar i en familj på fyra personer (6 l dag-1). Konceptet med urintorkning på toaletten kräver ingen sofistikerade mekanismer. Stabiliseringen av urinen utförs med ökat pH från t.ex. träaska och kalk. Torkningen utförs genom att blåsa upp uppvärmd luft över torkbädden (träaska eller biokol). Utvecklingen sker i tre arbetspaket: (i) torkteknik och processoptimering; ii) Minskning av risk för människa och miljö. och (iii) hållbarhetspotential för tekniken och implementering i Bolivia.Vi kommer att studera stabilisering och torkning på djupet: (i) hur kvävets stabilisering påverkas av mängden tillgängligt vatten och förändringen i pH som uppstår på grund av urintillsats och CO2-absorption från luft; och (ii) hur vatten rör sig i torkbädden innan det förångas under torkningen. Därefter kommer optimeringsexperiment att utföras för att samtidigt maximera näringskoncentrationen och förångningen i torkbädden. Experiment kommer leda till en prototypanläggning för att behandla lier urin per dag och energieffektiviteten hos torkanläggningen.Slutprodukten från urintorkningen är ett torrt gödningsmedel som måste uppfylla internationella standarder (WHO/EU/USEPA) för återanvändning av avloppsvatten. Detta projekt kommer att undersöka om sådana gödningsmedel innehåller potentiella hälsorisker och hur man hanterar dem om de finns. Specifika risker som ska bedömas är koncentrationerna av farmaceutiskt aktiva föreningar; vattenburna patogener och tungmetaller. Björn Vinnerås Hygien klass II laboratorium och Lutz Ahrens POP-laboratorium vid Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet har tillgång till lämpliga försöksuppställningar för att analysera och bedöma dessa risker.Ny teknik måste bedömas för dess lämplighet och hållbarhet som avloppslösning. Uttorkning av färsk urin kan ge ett torrt gödningsmedel jämförbart med dagens mineralgödsel. I våra förexperiment, där urin torkats i träaska gett kvävekoncentrationer på 15 %. Gödselvärdet och näringsämnena för sådana substrat måste dock utvärderas i förhållande till kommersiella gödselmedel. Detta kommer att hjälpa till att kvantifiera i vilken utsträckning urinbaserad gödsel kan ersätta kommersiell gödselkonsumtion i de länder som ingår i studien (Bolivia, Sverige).Det finns liten eller ingen sociologisk forskning som har utvärderat acceptans för urinhantering i Bolivia, även om det finns flera organisationer som installerar sådan teknik. Detta projekt kommer att försöka lösa detta gap genom att genomföra undersökningar av intressenter i Cochabamba, Bolivia.

Den torkade urinen kommer att användas inom odlingsprojekt för att utvärdera gödselproduktens kvalitet. No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2018-05023-1 Sweden The purpose of this project is to develop a new, simple, yet extremely effective sanitation technology and work towards the goal of ‘bringing sanitation to all people’. This technology, urine dehydration, recovers nutrients present in urine while removing excess water from it in order to produce a hygienic, dry, and commercial-quality fertiliser. The overall goal of this project will be to design a urine dehydrator that functions continuously, for a period of at least 30 days, to safely dry the urine excreted by a family of four and produce a dry powder with 15% nitrogen. To develop this technology, three complementary work packages are proposed. They will investigate the: (i) dehydration techniques and process optimisation; (ii) the mitigation of human and environmental health risks; and (iii) sustainability potential of the technology and its field testing in Bolivia. The work will be conducted by researchers from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and the University of San-Simón (Bolivia) over 3 years, between 2019 and 2021. A urine drying unit requires no sophisticated mechanisms, it is easy to use and maintain, and can be built using off-the-shelf products. We estimate that a unit serving a family of four will cost less than US$ 40. The technology thus has potential to revolutionise sanitation in developing countries. Avloppet från över fyra miljarder människor släpps obehandlat ut i miljön utan någon som helst behandling. Dessa utsläpp orsakar övergödning, försurning och spridning av sjukdom och läkemedelsrester i våra vattendrag. I informella bosättningar, lågkvalitativa bostadshem och överfulla urbana slumområden där toaletter tenderar att installeras utan nödvändig sanitetstjänst är detta mer standard än undantag. Den näringsrikaste fraktionen i avloppet är urinen, men den består av mer än 95% vatten. Björns Vinnerås laboratoriegrupp utvecklar en ny behandlingsteknik som stabiliserar och sedan torkar urinen till ett fast, hygieniskt säkert gödselmedel med hög kvävekoncentration (>15%). Det övergripande målet med detta projekt är att vidareutveckla konceptet med uppströms behandling av urinen genom att utvärdera om stabiliserings- och uttorkningstekniken fungerar kontinuerligt under minst 30 dagar i en familj på fyra personer (6 l dag-1). Konceptet med urintorkning på toaletten kräver ingen sofistikerade mekanismer. Stabiliseringen av urinen utförs med ökat pH från t.ex. träaska och kalk. Torkningen utförs genom att blåsa upp uppvärmd luft över torkbädden (träaska eller biokol). Utvecklingen sker i tre arbetspaket: (i) torkteknik och processoptimering; ii) Minskning av risk för människa och miljö. och (iii) hållbarhetspotential för tekniken och implementering i Bolivia.Vi kommer att studera stabilisering och torkning på djupet: (i) hur kvävets stabilisering påverkas av mängden tillgängligt vatten och förändringen i pH som uppstår på grund av urintillsats och CO2-absorption från luft; och (ii) hur vatten rör sig i torkbädden innan det förångas under torkningen. Därefter kommer optimeringsexperiment att utföras för att samtidigt maximera näringskoncentrationen och förångningen i torkbädden. Experiment kommer leda till en prototypanläggning för att behandla lier urin per dag och energieffektiviteten hos torkanläggningen.Slutprodukten från urintorkningen är ett torrt gödningsmedel som måste uppfylla internationella standarder (WHO/EU/USEPA) för återanvändning av avloppsvatten. Detta projekt kommer att undersöka om sådana gödningsmedel innehåller potentiella hälsorisker och hur man hanterar dem om de finns. Specifika risker som ska bedömas är koncentrationerna av farmaceutiskt aktiva föreningar; vattenburna patogener och tungmetaller. Björn Vinnerås Hygien klass II laboratorium och Lutz Ahrens POP-laboratorium vid Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet har tillgång till lämpliga försöksuppställningar för att analysera och bedöma dessa risker.Ny teknik måste bedömas för dess lämplighet och hållbarhet som avloppslösning. Uttorkning av färsk urin kan ge ett torrt gödningsmedel jämförbart med dagens mineralgödsel. I våra förexperiment, där urin torkats i träaska gett kvävekoncentrationer på 15 %. Gödselvärdet och näringsämnena för sådana substrat måste dock utvärderas i förhållande till kommersiella gödselmedel. Detta kommer att hjälpa till att kvantifiera i vilken utsträckning urinbaserad gödsel kan ersätta kommersiell gödselkonsumtion i de länder som ingår i studien (Bolivia, Sverige).Det finns liten eller ingen sociologisk forskning som har utvärderat acceptans för urinhantering i Bolivia, även om det finns flera organisationer som installerar sådan teknik. Detta projekt kommer att försöka lösa detta gap genom att genomföra undersökningar av intressenter i Cochabamba, Bolivia.

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.

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.

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.

Den globala matproduktionen kommer att fortsätta kräva ökade skördar med hög kvalitet samtidigt som miljöpåverkan och energitillförsel måste minska.

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.

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. 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 Tuberculosis control Basic Health SE-0-SE-29-2018-05194_2-1 Sweden Many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are facing both a persistent burden of infectious diseases and an emerging burden of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs). 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.

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. Descriptive statistics, multilevel analysis and intention to treat analysis will be applied. 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. Därför bidrar denna insats både direkt och indirekt till att främja god hälsa och välbefinnande för alla (SDG 3) och jämställdhet (SDG 5).

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.

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.

Despite seriousness of the problem, little is known about the pattern and the main risk factors of such violence particularly in low and middle income countries where both types of violence are highly prevalent. Current study aims to evaluate the pattern and determinant of women’s exposure to Domestic Violence (DV) and/or Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), over a long period of time and estimate the casual relationship between maternal experience of IPV/DV and Violence against Children (VAC) using a novel longitudinal dataset from MINIMat study in rural Bangladesh. The original study implemented in 2001 in Matlab and since then 4436 pregnant women with 3267 singleton live births were repeatedly followed-up during pregnancy and after child birth (1-24m, 4.5y, 10y, & puberty) and comprehensive set of social and environmental exposures were collected from them in several occasions. Recruited women were interviewed about their lifetime experience of IPV/DV before child birth, during pregnancy and 10 years after childbirth. We plan to interview 1400 women and their children at (17 years of age) regarding their last year experience of violence using standard questionnaires. Multistage models will be used to to identify pattern and factors associated with women’s experience of IPV/DV at different time points and also to evaluate temporal association between IPV/DV and VAC. Våld mot kvinnor erkänns som en kränkning av de mänskliga rättigheter, samt som ett allvarligt folkhälso- och samhällsproblem. Det orsakar betydande direkta och indirekta kostnader för länder. Även om våld mot kvinnor uppträder i olika miljöer, är våld i hemmet erkänt som det mest genomgripande och en intim partner är den vanligaste förövaren. Globalt sett har mellan 15 till 71% av kvinnor som varit i en relation upplevt våld i nära relation under sin livstid  och våld i nära relation har blivit rankad som 31:a ledande riskfaktorn till funktionsjusterade levnadsår. Erfarenhet av våld i nära relation/våld i hemmet kan ge ett brett spektrum av fysiska och psykiska konsekvenser för de misshandlade kvinnorna , negativa konsekvenser för deras barn och för förövarens välbefinnande . Vidare tyder evidens på att i hushåll där våld i nära relation sker är våld mot barn vanligt, vilket ökar sannolikheten för framtida utsatthet eller illgärning för barnet . Trots allvaret av problemet är lite känt om mönster av våld i nära relation/våld i hemmet i en kvinnas liv under en längre tid. Befintlig litteratur kring trenderna för våld i nära relation/våld i hemmet är främst från höginkomstländer och bygger på upprepade tvärsnittsdata . Dessutom är litteraturen om våldsdeterminanter nästan uteslutande baserad på tvärsnittsstudier, vilket hindrar identifiering av orsakssamband. Detta gäller för studier sambandet mellan våld mot kvinnor och våld mot barn, särskilt i låg- och medelinkomstländer . Detta projekt är uppföljningen av MINIMat-studien (Maternal and Infant nutrition Interventions in Matlab). Projektet bedrivs på landsbygden i Bangladesh, där våld mot kvinnor, våld i hemmet, samt våld mot barn är mycket förkommande. MINIMat är en stor mat- och näringstillskottprövning hos gravida kvinnor i Matlab som dessutom innefattar en intervention med amningsrådgivning. Från 4436 rekryterade gravida kvinnor registerades 3267 enstaka levande födslar. Kvinnorna och deras barn följdes från förlossning upp till 2 år, vid 4,5 år, 10 år och puberteten och omfattande exponering såsom kost, sociala och ekonomiska förhållanden, våld av nära anhörig/våld i hemmet, kvinnors bemyndigande, fysisk och emotionell stress och livsmedelssäkerhet samlades från dem vid flera tillfällen. Vi har tidigare visat att kvinnor som upplevde våld i nära relation/våld i hemmet var mer benägna att vara känslomässigt bekymrade över sin graviditet och hade lägre varaktighet av helamning. Vidare ökade mödrarnas erfarenheter av våld i nära relation/våld i hemmet risken för tillväxthämning i fosterstadiet och i tidig barndom, samt risken för diarré och luftvägsinfektion hos deras barn. För denna studie strävar vi efter att utvärdera mönstret och determinanter av exponering till våld i nära relation/våld i hemmet över en lång tidsperiod samt uppskatta det kausala sambandet mellan mammans erfarenheter av våld i nära relation, våld i hemmet och våld av barn med hjälp av ett nytt longitudinellt data set från landsbygden i Bangladesh.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. The project will investigate this question in four selected countries: Burkina Faso, Burundi, Kenya and Uganda, in order to develop theoretically informed comparisons. This multidisciplinary project draws on expertise from anthropology and political science. Through its multidisciplinary approach and comparative design, the project contributes to theoretical and methodological development as well as empirical knowledge in the fields of electoral authoritarianism and popular protests. I många utvecklingsländer har politik under det senaste decenniet präglats av styrelseskick som är varken genuint demokratiska eller fullt ut auktoritära. I sådana system försöker sittande regeringar ofta manipulera ramverken för politiska val för att behålla makten. I många länder på den afrikanska kontinenten har sådana försök från regeringars sida mötts av både parlamentariska och utomparlamentariska protester. Trots den tilltagande förekomsten av såväl auktoritärt manipulerande av politiska val som protester så är den viktiga frågan om hur proteströrelsernas dynamik och förmåga påfallande outforskad. Det här projektet analyserar när och varför spretande proteströrelser mot politiskt manövrerande kring politiska val i auktoritär riktning leder till sammanhållna koalitioner och hur det påverkar rörelsernas förmåga att uppnå sina mål. I projektet studeras detta forskningsproblem i fyra utvalda länder: Burkina Faso, Burundi, Kenya och Uganda, med syfte att genomföra teoretiskt grundade jämförelser. Projektet är tvärvetenskapligt, med en forskargrupp som består av en antropolog och en statsvetare. Projektgruppens sammansättning och långa erfarenhet av samarbete skapar en bred och samtidigt sammansvetsad teoretisk och metodologisk expertis. Den senare omfattar deltagande observation, intervjuer och strukturerade jämförelser av politiska system, något som gör det möjligt att studera proteströrelsernas dynamik och effekter på många olika nivåer.

Research on civil society–state relations has yet to develop a theory that can account for the complexity and variations of their relations and interactions on the continuum between authoritarian and democratic rule. Previous research has commonly adopted divergent theoretical frameworks for explaining civil society – state relations under democratic and under authoritarian rule. This project explores how different levels/scales of authoritarian and democratic rule shape possibilities for civic action through in-depth case studies of state – labour relations in two countries, one formally qualified as democratic, India, and one as authoritarian, Ethiopia. Taking negotiations around minimum wages as an entry point, we will analyse when and how trade unions have been able to place labour demands on the political agenda and when and to what extend labour demands have been legislated on an adhered to. Drawing on archival data going back to the 1960s and semi-structured interviews will allow us to (1) compare civil society – state relations under different levels/scales of authoritarian and democratic rule, (2) shed light on how the reduction/enlargement of civic space shape possibilities for civic action and (3) understand similarities and differences in civil society – state relations under different levels/scales of authoritarian versus democratic rule. Hur kan vi förstå civilsamhällets möjligheter till inflytande i olika politiska regimer? Sedan 2017 har en våg av strejker dragit in över Etiopien, ett land som ofta beskrivs som en auktoritär stat. Samtidigt har arbetare i olika sektorer i Indien, som ofta kallats världens största demokrati, lagt ned arbete och protesterat mot regeringen Modis arbetsrättsreformer. Fallen visar på civilsamhällets potentiella kraft – den nationella politiska dagordningen sätts inte enbart av regeringar, utan civilsamhället kan ha en påtaglig inverkan i auktoritära såväl som demokratiska stater. Vissa länders regeringar tenderar att i mediebevakningen slentrianmässigt beskrivas som järnhårda diktaturer, medan andras beskrivs som öppna samhällen och demokratier. Bakom sådana generiska beskrivningar döljs ofta en mycket mer komplex och motsägande verklighet, speciellt i utvecklingskontexter där stora delar av ekonomin och människors levnadsvillkor befinner sig i en process av ständig omstörtning, och där statens relationer med civilsamhället kontinuerligt omdefinieras.När stora nya sociala grupper, så som lönearbetare, organiserar sig sker en rad förskjutningar. Bland dessa är vissa betingade av de nya civilsamhällessammanslutningar som bildas och stärks. Ofta har staten sina givna intressen av att, växelvis, kontrollera, påverka, eller pacificera liknande sammanslutningar, åtminstone för att se till att inte de regerande partiernas egna politiska agenda åsidosätts. Går denna process för långt krymper det offentliga rummet till en sådan grad att vi talar om en regelrätt diktatur. Men ofta driver civilsamhällesorganisationer processen i motsatt riktning genom stora omvälvande aktioner, som de som beskrivs ovan, men också genom vardagliga kontakter, påverkansarbete och opinionsbildning. I detta ligger en viktig grogrund för demokratisk utveckling.Forskning om det civila samhället saknar emellertid adekvata teorier för att förklara hur civilsamhällets inflytande varierar över tid och mellan olika regimer. Genom att titta på interaktionen mellan stat och civilsamhälle i två valda länderna ämnar vi att beskriva och förklara hur det offentliga rummet växelvist krymper och ökar över tid. De empiriska studierna kommer vi använda som grund för att utveckla ett teoretiskt ramverk som syftar till att förstå statens relation till civilsamhället bättre. Vi tittar specifikt på arbetstagarorganisationer och frågan om minimilöner för att belysa det offentliga rummets föränderlighet. Under olika perioder har frågan om minimilöner sjunkit bort från den nationella agendan, medan arbetstagarorganisationer har marginaliserats. Men under andra perioder har arbetstagarorganisationer lyckats mobilisera människor bakom krav, placera frågor på den nationella politiska agendan, driva på lagstiftning och kontrollera att denna lagstiftning har åtföljts. Länderna vi har valt att studera, Indien och Etiopien, är två länder som ofta har beskrivits som väsensskilda – det förra som ’världens största demokrati’, och det senare som en diktatur – men i båda fallen har länderna över tid varit mer och mindre demokratiskt och auktoritärt. Med dessa båda fall kan vi således fånga civilsamhällets relation till staten under olika grader av demokrati och auktoritärt styre. Vi fokuserar på minimilöner i analysen av civilsamhällets relation till staten. Minimilöner är ett bra fall då frågan i regel engagerar och mobiliserar aktörer i civilsamhället till den grad att stater, oavsett regimtyp, inte kan ignorera påtryckningarna. Fokus på minimilöner tillåter oss alltså att fånga statens relation till civilsamhället över tid i båda länder. Projektet lämnar ett viktigt bidrag till vår förståelse för hur civilsamhället och staten interagerar i olika regimtyper vilket är direkt användbart för alla biståndsprojekt som syftar till att främja civilsamhället.

Information Communication Technology (ICT) provides clients with access to information, self-evaluation, and self-management. ICT-supported programs in persons’ home environment are recommended when there are long distances to health care. Our previous feasibility study suggested beneficial effects on self-efficacy and occupational performance and satisfaction of a mobile phone supported and family-centred rehabilitation intervention (F@ce) after stroke in Uganda. The purpose of present proposal is to implement and evaluate F@ce on functioning in ADL and participation in everyday life among persons with stroke and their families. With recommendations on evaluation of complex interventions both outcomes and processes will be studied and hence both quantitative and qualitative methods will be applied. In a randomized controlled trial we will evaluate F@ce compared to ordinary rehabilitation in urban/rural Uganda regarding; self-efficacy, perceived performance and participation in everyday activities, independence in ADL, health care utilization and the families´ perceived participation in everyday activities. Qualitative data will explore experiences of people with stroke and family members of participating in F@ce. This research program has a multidisciplinary perspective for sustainable rehabilitation, a prerequisite for better living conditions for people with stroke in low/middle income countries. Det saknas interventioner och forskning kring rehabilitering i Sub-Sahara Afrika för personer som haft stroke och för deras familjer. Projektet är en fortsättning på ett forskningsprogram där en modifierad version av en svensk rehabiliteringsintervention har intergrerats i en mobiltelefon-applikation (F@ce) för personer med stroke och deras familjer. En förstudie i Uganda visade att F@ce var användbar men innan vidare rekommendationer kan ges behöver interventionen prövas och utvärderas för en större grupp personer med stroke, både på landsbygd och i storstad i Uganda. Syftet med detta projekt är att implementera och utvärdera en modell för mobiltelefonbaserad familjecentrerad rehabilitering efter stroke vars mål är att understödja aktivitet och delaktighet i vardagslivet för personer som har haft stroke och deras familjer. Interventionen som vänder sig till personer som har haft en stroke pågår under 8 veckor och utvärderas genom att man jämför en interventionsgrupp med en grupp som får sedvanlig rehabilitering. I den tidigare förstudien framkom det att personer som fått den mobiltelefon och familjecentrerade rehabiliteringen efter stroke upplevde att de förbättrat sitt aktivitetsutförande samt upplevde en högre kompetens i utförande av vardagsaktiviteter. Att använda mobiltelefon för att understödja rehabilitering skulle därför kunna ge möjlighet till rehabilitering för personer med stroke och deras familjer som bor långt ifrån rehabiliteringskliniker eller saknar tillgängliga transportmedel, vilket ofta är fallet i Sub-Sahara Afrika såsom i Uganda.Projektet kommer att innefatta fyra olika delstudier som använder både kvalitativa och kvantitativa metoder vilket är rekommenderat i denna typ av icke-farmakologiska interventionsstudier med hög komplexitet. Studie 1 kommer att genomföras på landsbygden för att studera de konsekvenser av stroke som personer med stroke och deras närstående upplever. Studie 2 kommer att utvärdera den mobiltelefonunderstödda familjecentrerade rehabiliteringsinterventionen F@ce genom att använda en randomiserad kontrollerad design för att inkludera en interventionsgrupp och en kontrollgrupp som deltar i sedvanlig rehabilitering. Baserat på resultat från den tidigare förstudien har en beräkning utförts utifrån en bedömning gällande tilltron till den egna förmågan för att genomföra aktiviteter i vardagslivet och det framkom att den planerade studien behöver omfatta 174 deltagare i studien. Även kvalitativa intervjuer kommer att genomföras med personer med stroke och familjemedlemmar i syfte att beskriva deras upplevelser under rehabiliteringsprocessen (Studie 3). I Studie 4 kommer en utvärdering av processen att implementera F@ce interventionen att genomföras. Kunskapen från dessa studier skulle kunna användas till att utveckla och utvärdera en hållbar modell för att utbilda hälsoarbetare i interventionen. Forskningsprogrammet har ett tvärvetenskapligt perspektiv genom att forskare från olika discipliner deltar och samarbetar med IT tekniker, hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal samt personer som drabbats av stroke och deras familjer för att kunna utveckla hållbara rehabiliteringsåtgärder. Detta är en förutsättning för bättre levnadsvillkor för personer med stroke och deras familjer i låg- och medel inkomstländer.Projektets förväntade betydelse: Då det idag saknas rehabiliteringsprogram för personer med stroke i Uganda kommer detta projekt att generera ny kunskap om vilken effekt en intervention som använder mobiltelefon har, samt hur den kan användas i rehabilitering efter stroke. Detta kan i sin tur bidra till att öka tillgängligheten och minska kostnaderna för dessa rehabiliteringsinsatser. Projektet kommer att innebära en direkt implementering av forskningsbaserad kunskap inom rehabilitering men kommer även att bidra till nya forskningsbaserade modeller som använder en mobiltelefon, och som kan implementeras i både nationella och internationella sammanhang.

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.

However, this fragile gain is threatened by emerging resistance to insecticides among malaria mosquitoes and by drug resistance by the malaria parasites. Knowledge of the natural vector ecology is now recognised as a prerequisite for malaria elimination and eradication, and can be harnessed in the development of new strategies for vector control. Plant feeding plays a pivotal role in vector biology and offers novel ways to manipulate the connection between plant and vector to weaken or eliminate pathogen transmission, either by itself or as a component of integrated vector control. However, we have limited understanding of how malaria mosquitoes select plants for feeding, and how the natural diversity of plants affects mosquito competence for malaria parasites. The purpose of this study is to identify the mechanism by which malaria mosquitoes select host plants to obtain sugars needed for survival and reproduction, and how this behaviour is affected by the interaction of secondary metabolites in plant nectar and malaria parasites. The aim of the project is to harness the properties of attractive host plants for the development of odour-bait technology, and to identify plant secondary compounds that have detrimental effects on the development and survival of malaria parasites. Results of this project may further be used in health and policy decisions for the reduction of malaria prevalence. Malaria är en infektionssjukdom som smittar via myggor som bär på en parasit. Nästan hälften av jordens befolkning löper risk att smittas av malaria. Fortfarande är det bästa skyddet mot malaria att skydda sig mot myggor. Sedan början av 2000-talet fram till nu har antalet dödsfall i malaria halverats tack vare program som gratis distribuerar insekticidbehandlade myggnät. På grund av resistens mot dessa insekticider har man dock under senare år märkt av en stagnering eller till och med en ökning av antalet dödsfall. Nya metoder behövs för att bromsa och vända denna utveckling. En ökad förståelse för myggornas ekologi och beteende behövs för att identifiera nya bekämpningsmetoder. I denna studie avser vi att identifiera de mekanismer malariamyggor använder sig av för att hitta nektar som de behöver för sin överlevnad. Vidare planerar vi att undersöka hur detta beteendet påverkas av om myggorna är infekterade med parasiten. Studien kommer att utföras i nära samarbete med forskare i Burkina Faso och Etiopien.Myggor använder sig av sitt doftsinne för att lokalisera blommor där de kan hitta nektar som de behöver som energi. I ett pågående projekt med Addis Abeba Universitet har vi identifierat ett trettio-tal blommande växter som är mycket vanligt förekommande på landsbygden i östra Afrika. Genom att analysera beteendet hos två arter malariamyggor och gula febernmyggan har vi identifierat de växter som de mest föredrar. Vi har även genom kemisk analys, och elektrofysiologiska avledningar från myggornas antenner, identiferat de doftämen som myggorna reagerar på. I detta projekt avser vi att ta fram en doftblandning, baserad på denna djuplodande analys, som kan användas för att attrahera myggor i fältförsök. Dessa försök kommer att lägga grunden till en metod som på sikt kan reducera malaria och andra myggburna sjukdomar. Dessa försök kommer att bedrivas i södra Etiopien där vi installerat infrastruktur för storskaliga fältförsök.Vilken växt som malariamyggorna suger nektar på kan ha en stor påverkan på parasiten och därmed spridningen av malaria, vilket vi visat i tidigare försök. Tidigare försök har även påvisat att parasiten kan påverka myggans beteende vad gäller val av växt. I denna studie avser vi att utöka denna analys nämnvärt. Likt detektiver kommer vi att analysera vilka växter malariamyggor naturligt suger nektar från, och om detta val påverkas av om de bär på parasiten eller inte. Här kommer vi att samla in myggor från platser i Burkina Faso och Etiopien som lider av en mycket hög nivå av malariainfektioner. Genom att analysera växt-DNA som vi extraherar från myggans mage kommer vi ta fram information om vilka växter de naturligt föredrar och om detta val påverkas av parasiten. Denna information kommer att lägga grunden till andra försök där vi hoppas få svar på om det är parasiten eller myggan som styr detta val.Vi har indikationer på att infekterade myggor kan medicinera sig själv för att bli av med parasiter. Detta kan ske genom att de dricker nektar som innehåller giftiga så kallade sekundära metaboliter, som finns hos vissa växtarter. Genom att analysera nektar från de växter som vi identifierar i vårt tidigare detektivarbete, kommer vi först att identifiera om denna innehåller sekundära metaboliter. Vi vet redan att vissa av de arter vi är intresserade av, traditionellt har använts för att behandla malaria hos människor. Man har dock aldrig undersökt om malariamyggorna själva använder sig av detta knep. I vår analys kommer vi att undersöka vilken effekt dessa sekundära metaboliter har på dels parasiten dels myggan.Sammantaget är projektets mål att identifiera hur vi kan dra nytta av malariamyggans behov av att hitta blommande växter i vår strävan att bekämpa en av världens mest allvarliga infektionssjukdomar.  Projektet kommer även lägga en grund för framtida policybeslut kring vilka växter som bör planteras nära bebyggelse för att negativt påverka malariaförekomsten.

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.

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.

Utöver att göra undersökningar i de befintliga försöken och demonstrationsodlingarna kommer projektet att testa potentiellt förbättrade metoder inne i demonstrationsodlingarna och även att genomföra intervjuundersökningar och gruppdiskussioner med kvinnor och män som är lantbrukare och med deras rådgivare samt slutligen återkoppla resultaten från projektet till dessa och policyutvecklare med förslag på genderanpassade lösningar.

Previous evidence indicates that IMPower can reduce sexual violence by 40-60%, but little is known about its effect on other types of GBV (physical, psychological) among boys as well as girls, or if it protects against other SRHR outcomes (e.g. unwanted pregnancy).We will conduct a cluster-randomized trial in Cape Town townships in collaboration with the Desmond Tutu HIV Foundation, Ujamaa-Africa, University of Western Cape and Karolinska Institutet. Twenty schools (N=1600 male and female students aged 10-19) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to intervention (7 weeks, 2-hour sessions on gender norms, empowerment, self-defense) or standard life-skills, with follow-up at 12 and 18 months. This is combined with a cost-effectiveness analysis (cost per averted case of GBV), and qualitative process evaluation to understand implementation facilitators/barriers.The project will generate new evidence on effective methods to prevent GBV and improve SRHR among adolescents in South Africa – ranked as the world’s most unequal country with extreme rates of violence and HIV. Such evidence is urgently needed in order to enable sustainable scale-up in other settings of poverty and oppression where few effective programs currently exist. Könsrelaterat våld (gender-based violence, GBV) är ett globalt samhällsproblem och kränkning av mänskliga rättigheter. GBV består av fysiskt, sexuellt eller psykiskt våld grundat i könsrelaterade ojämlika maktförhållanden, och drabbar framförallt flickor och kvinnor även om pojkar och män också kan utsättas. En tredjedel av alla världens kvinnor uppges ha blivit slagna, tvingade till sex eller på annat sätt utsatta för GBV någon gång i livet. Detta våld börjar tidigt, och ungdomar (särskilt unga kvinnor i Afrika söder om Sahara) löper hög risk. En sydafrikansk studie fann att upp till 86% av kvinnor 16–24 år i Western Cape (där detta projekt kommer utföras) upplevt fysiskt eller sexuellt våld i samband med en date. Nya typer av insatser behövs för att bryta denna onda cirkel. Våra preliminära resultat visar tydligt att detta är både genomförbart och nödvändigt.Syftet med detta projekt är att förebygga GBV genom den skolbaserade insatsen IMPower som avser att främja jämställda könsnormer, sexuellt samtycke och hälsosamma beteenden bland 10–19-åringar i slumområden runt Kapstaden, Sydafrika. Studier från Kenya visar att IMPower kan halvera antal nya våldtäktsfall bland flickor samt förbättra könsstereotypiska attityder och öka chansen att pojkar ingriper för att stoppa våld. Kunskap saknas dock om IMPower har positiva effekter på olika typer av GBV (fysiskt, psykologiskt, sexuellt), och om den leder till att killar utövar mindre våld samt minskar deras egen utsatthet för GBV (25% av sydafrikanska killar 13–17 år har blivit sexuellt utnyttjade).Projektet genomförs i tre faser: förberedelse (2020), intervention (2020), och uppföljning (2021-2022). Tjugo skolor (1600 studenter) lottas till antingen intervention eller kontroll och följs i 18 månader. Insatsen består av 7 veckors interaktiva 2-h sessioner om jämställda könsnormer, sexuellt samtycke, strategier för tjejer att bemöta olika typer av våld och trakasserier (inklusive verbalt/fysiskt självförsvar utifrån högriskkontexten) och för pojkar att ingripa om de ser andra utsättas för våld eller hot. Projektet är högst genomförbart tack vare att befintlig infrastruktur används i samarbete med det starkaste forskningsinstitutet i Afrika, Desmond Tutu HIV Foundation i Kapstaden, samt den ideella Kenyanska organisationen Ujamaa som utvecklat IMPower.GBV underminerar både social och ekonomisk utveckling och är ett allvarligt hot mot folkhälsa, särskilt sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter (SRHR), genom ökad risk för hivinfektion, fysisk såväl som psykisk ohälsa (ångest, depression) samt sexuellt och narkotikarelaterat riskbeteende. GBV bottnar i stereotypiska könsnormer som upprätthåller mäns våld mot kvinnor (och andra män) och begränsar kvinnors möjlighet att bestämma över sin kropp och sexualitet, utbildning, arbete och tillgång till hälsovård. Trycket att leva upp till dessa normer är särskilt stort under ungdomsåren, vilket gör det till en särskilt viktig tid för insatser.Detta är så vitt vi vet den första studien som utför och utvärderar en GBV-förebyggande insats med mål att gynna unga män lika mycket som kvinnor. Vår effektivitetsanalys kommer att fokusera på GBV erfarenheter, attityder och beteenden bland både pojkar och flickor, och tillämpa rigorösa kvantitativa och kvalitativa metoder. Vi kommer dessutom att mäta om insatsen påverkar sexuell och reproduktiv hälsa (t.ex., kondomanvändning, hiv-testning, oönskad graviditet) samt mental hälsa, och följa ungdomar över tid, vilket inte gjorts tidigare.Ett unikt bidrag är den hälsoekonomiska utvärderingen som uppskattar kostanden per förhindrat fall av GBV – information som är avgörande för att beslutsfattare ska kunna prioritera insatser och resurser på bästa möjliga sätt. Detta kombineras med en processutvärdering i syfte att skapa en hållbar modell som kan replikeras och utökas i andra högriskmiljöer för GBV globalt.Att bekämpa GBV är avgörande för att världen ska kunna uppnå flera av hållbarhetsmålen, främst mål 5 (jämställdhet mellan kvinnor och män) men även minskad fattigdom (1), god hälsa (3), god utbildning för alla (4), ojämlikhet (10), säkra städer (11), fred och utveckling (16). Det är även ett viktigt steg i Sveriges strävan att bidra till ökad jämställdhet globalt. Resultaten från projektet kommer inte endast att gynna sydafrikanska ungdomar i Kapstadens slumområden, utan även kunna användas i andra fattiga låginkomst miljöer med hög risk för GBV och relaterade SRHR-konsekvenser.

The postwar city thus often plays a destructive role in peacebuilding. Yet research indicates that it also is able to play a constructive role because it is well-positioned to transcend conflict lines and foster coexistence. There is, however, little knowledge on how and why the postwar city is able to do just that. This proposed project will therefore ask: how is the postwar city able to advance peacebuilding between its citizens, across the city itself, and within its wider context?To provide answers I will theorise the postwar city’s ability to play a constructive role in peacebuilding and then – through extensive fieldwork in three postwar cities (Beirut, Mitrovica, Nicosia) – explore how and why different strategies are able to assist this constructive ability. The overall aim is to better understand the dynamics through which the postwar city transcends conflict lines and fosters coexistence. The proposed project will develop an original theorisation of how the postwar city’s constructive ability functions; theorise how and why different strategies can assist it; as well as generate novel data on Beirut, Mitrovica, and Nicosia. It will thus contribute to efforts at building peace in the postwar city. I allt högre utsträckning tenderar efterkrigsstäder att ställa till med problem när fred byggs. Efterkrigstäder är städer där konflikten fortsätter trots att kriget är slut. Konfliktparterna i dessa städer må ha slutat skjuta på varandra, men de är fortfarande oense om det mesta – exempelvis vem som ska styra staden, hur gemensamma resurser ska fördelas, eller om alla får bo där de vill. Freden är således fortfarande långt borta i dessa städer. Detta gör att de ofta är osäkra för människor att bo i då det kan vara riskabelt att befinna sig i ”fel” del av staden, ofta fungerar dåligt som städer då det är viktigare vem som bestämmer än vad som bestäms, och ofta leder till problem bortom stadsgränserna då städer är ekonomiska och politiska enheter som påverkar sina bredare kontexter. På grund av att konflikten tenderar att fortsätta i efterkrigsstaden blir dess roll i fredsbyggande insatser – alltså insatser som ämnar hantera bakomliggande orsakerna till kriget samt bygga samhällen som löser problem fredligt – ofta destruktiv och konfliktgenererande. Detta är dock inte hela sanningen. Efterkrigsstaden kan också spela en konstruktiv och konfliktförebyggande roll i byggandet av fred. Dock vet vi väldigt lite om hur efterkrigsstaden förmår att spela just en sådan roll. Vi vet väldigt lite om hur konfliktparterna försonas, hur gemensamma institutioner bildas, eller hur bredare fredsbyggande insatser ges en knuff framåt. Detta projekt ämnar undersöka efterkrigsstadens förmåga att spela en konstruktiv roll i byggandet av fred och frågar därför: hur kan efterkrigsstaden bidra till fredsbyggande insatser mellan stadens medborgare, inom staden som helhet, samt i stadens bredare kontext? För att besvara denna fråga kommer projektet att studera tre olika efterkrigsstäder: Beirut (Libanon), Mitrovica (Kosovo), samt Nicosia (Cypern). Projektet är uppdelat i två delar. Den första delen kommer att teoretisera och undersöka hur och varför efterkrigsstaden förmår att spela en konstruktivt roll i olika fredsbyggande insatser. Olika exempel kommer studeras och slutsatser dras gällande vilka dynamiker som leder till att konfliktparter försonas, att gemensamma institutioner bildas, och att bredare fredsbyggande insatser ges en knuff framåt. Den andra delen kommer därefter att kartlägga vilka strategier som förstärker samt underminerar efterkrigsstadens förmåga att spela en sådan roll. Projektet kommer att undersöka både strategier som explicit strävar efter att bygga fred och strategier som går att hitta i alla städer (såsom planeringsbeslut eller byggandet av skolor). Förhoppningen är att identifiera strategier som både bidrar till samt hindrar fred. De tre städerna som kommer att undersökas har alla problem med att deras konflikter fortsatt trots att kriget är slut. Detta gör att de är osäkra att bo i, dåligt fungerande, samt orsakar problem bortom stadsgränserna. Beirut har fortfarande problem med våld och lider av fler våldsdåd per invånare mellan kristna, sunniter, och shiiter än vad Libanon i stort gör. Nicosia är uppdelat i två parallellt fungerande grekiska och turkiska socio-politiska sfärer där södra delen av staden ligger i den grekiska delen av Cypern och den norra delen ligger i den turkiska delen. Mitrovica är också den plats som är svårast att komma överens om i Kosovo. Detta är dock inte hela sanningen då alla tre städerna också uppvisar en förmåga - som dock är väldigt obeforskad - att bidra konstruktivt till byggandet av fred. För att undersöka hur denna konstruktiva förmåga fungerar samt vilka strategier som förstärker den kommer jag att intervjua politiker, religiösa ledare, stadsplanerare, aktivister, poliser, samt ”vanliga” invånare. Jag kommer också delta i och observera olika aktiviteter i städerna samt organisera fokusgrupper. Dessutom kommer jag att analysera policy-dokument, rapporter från lokala organisationer, och opinionsundersökningar. Dessa djupgående studier av städerna kommer sedan att jämföras för att se vad för likheter och skillnader som går att utröna. Projektet är väldigt relevant för städer som har upplevt krig och nu försöker bygga fred (såsom Belfast, Kirkuk, och Mostar). Relevansen är även stor för städer (ofta i utvecklingsländer) som inte upplevt krig men ändå liknande problem som efterkrigsstadens – såsom segregation, våld, och korruption.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-03870-1 Sweden Postwar cities – where war is over but the socio-political ordering of society remains contested and a mutually acceptable peace has yet to be established – often reinforce conflict lines that linger on after war and cement divisions between previously warring groups. The postwar city thus often plays a destructive role in peacebuilding. Yet research indicates that it also is able to play a constructive role because it is well-positioned to transcend conflict lines and foster coexistence. There is, however, little knowledge on how and why the postwar city is able to do just that. This proposed project will therefore ask: how is the postwar city able to advance peacebuilding between its citizens, across the city itself, and within its wider context?To provide answers I will theorise the postwar city’s ability to play a constructive role in peacebuilding and then – through extensive fieldwork in three postwar cities (Beirut, Mitrovica, Nicosia) – explore how and why different strategies are able to assist this constructive ability. The overall aim is to better understand the dynamics through which the postwar city transcends conflict lines and fosters coexistence. The proposed project will develop an original theorisation of how the postwar city’s constructive ability functions; theorise how and why different strategies can assist it; as well as generate novel data on Beirut, Mitrovica, and Nicosia. It will thus contribute to efforts at building peace in the postwar city. I allt högre utsträckning tenderar efterkrigsstäder att ställa till med problem när fred byggs. Efterkrigstäder är städer där konflikten fortsätter trots att kriget är slut. Konfliktparterna i dessa städer må ha slutat skjuta på varandra, men de är fortfarande oense om det mesta – exempelvis vem som ska styra staden, hur gemensamma resurser ska fördelas, eller om alla får bo där de vill. Freden är således fortfarande långt borta i dessa städer. Detta gör att de ofta är osäkra för människor att bo i då det kan vara riskabelt att befinna sig i ”fel” del av staden, ofta fungerar dåligt som städer då det är viktigare vem som bestämmer än vad som bestäms, och ofta leder till problem bortom stadsgränserna då städer är ekonomiska och politiska enheter som påverkar sina bredare kontexter. På grund av att konflikten tenderar att fortsätta i efterkrigsstaden blir dess roll i fredsbyggande insatser – alltså insatser som ämnar hantera bakomliggande orsakerna till kriget samt bygga samhällen som löser problem fredligt – ofta destruktiv och konfliktgenererande. Detta är dock inte hela sanningen. Efterkrigsstaden kan också spela en konstruktiv och konfliktförebyggande roll i byggandet av fred. Dock vet vi väldigt lite om hur efterkrigsstaden förmår att spela just en sådan roll. Vi vet väldigt lite om hur konfliktparterna försonas, hur gemensamma institutioner bildas, eller hur bredare fredsbyggande insatser ges en knuff framåt. Detta projekt ämnar undersöka efterkrigsstadens förmåga att spela en konstruktiv roll i byggandet av fred och frågar därför: hur kan efterkrigsstaden bidra till fredsbyggande insatser mellan stadens medborgare, inom staden som helhet, samt i stadens bredare kontext? För att besvara denna fråga kommer projektet att studera tre olika efterkrigsstäder: Beirut (Libanon), Mitrovica (Kosovo), samt Nicosia (Cypern). Projektet är uppdelat i två delar. Den första delen kommer att teoretisera och undersöka hur och varför efterkrigsstaden förmår att spela en konstruktivt roll i olika fredsbyggande insatser. Olika exempel kommer studeras och slutsatser dras gällande vilka dynamiker som leder till att konfliktparter försonas, att gemensamma institutioner bildas, och att bredare fredsbyggande insatser ges en knuff framåt. Den andra delen kommer därefter att kartlägga vilka strategier som förstärker samt underminerar efterkrigsstadens förmåga att spela en sådan roll. Projektet kommer att undersöka både strategier som explicit strävar efter att bygga fred och strategier som går att hitta i alla städer (såsom planeringsbeslut eller byggandet av skolor). Förhoppningen är att identifiera strategier som både bidrar till samt hindrar fred. De tre städerna som kommer att undersökas har alla problem med att deras konflikter fortsatt trots att kriget är slut. Detta gör att de är osäkra att bo i, dåligt fungerande, samt orsakar problem bortom stadsgränserna. Beirut har fortfarande problem med våld och lider av fler våldsdåd per invånare mellan kristna, sunniter, och shiiter än vad Libanon i stort gör. Nicosia är uppdelat i två parallellt fungerande grekiska och turkiska socio-politiska sfärer där södra delen av staden ligger i den grekiska delen av Cypern och den norra delen ligger i den turkiska delen. Mitrovica är också den plats som är svårast att komma överens om i Kosovo. Detta är dock inte hela sanningen då alla tre städerna också uppvisar en förmåga - som dock är väldigt obeforskad - att bidra konstruktivt till byggandet av fred. För att undersöka hur denna konstruktiva förmåga fungerar samt vilka strategier som förstärker den kommer jag att intervjua politiker, religiösa ledare, stadsplanerare, aktivister, poliser, samt ”vanliga” invånare. Jag kommer också delta i och observera olika aktiviteter i städerna samt organisera fokusgrupper. Dessutom kommer jag att analysera policy-dokument, rapporter från lokala organisationer, och opinionsundersökningar. Dessa djupgående studier av städerna kommer sedan att jämföras för att se vad för likheter och skillnader som går att utröna. Projektet är väldigt relevant för städer som har upplevt krig och nu försöker bygga fred (såsom Belfast, Kirkuk, och Mostar). Relevansen är även stor för städer (ofta i utvecklingsländer) som inte upplevt krig men ändå liknande problem som efterkrigsstadens – såsom segregation, våld, och korruption.

This research project explores the nature and role of for-profit development contractors and what lies behind their growing influence in foreign aid. It specifically looks at the career movements of development professionals across consulting firms and public agencies and NGOs, in order to understand possible changes in the motivations and identification of aid workers. It also studies the social networks of professionals and how they may influence contractual relations. The purpose is three-fold: to generate comparative knowledge of non- and for-profit aid in contractual relations; to unravel the ways in which these two aid realms are intertwined; and to highlight the social dimensions of development contracting through ethnographic inquiry into everyday practices and professionals. The study also aims to advance anthropological theory of “Aidland.” It shifts focus from the personal lives of NGO workers and bureaucrats from donor countries, to the practices and relations among workers and organizations engaged in contractual work across two long-term partner countries, Sweden and Tanzania. Three main methods are used: interviews with aid workers, participant observation in consulting firms, and a multi-sited case study of the procurement and implementation of a contracted assignment Mer än häften av världens statliga bistånd till utvecklingsländer går idag till att upphandla varor och tjänster från externa aktörer, framförallt vinstdrivande företag i givarländer. Många av de aktörer som är verksamma inom områden vi normalt associerar med ideellt eller offentligt arbete, såsom fattigdomsbekämpning, allmän sjukvård, utbildning och jämställdhet, är idag kommersiella företag. Detta forskningsprojekt studerar sådana företag aktiva inom utvecklingsbistånd. Det undersöker hur dessa företag kan jämföras med icke-vinstdrivande biståndsarbete, samt vad  som ligger till grund för deras växande roll och inflytande i internationellt utvecklingssamarbete. Dessa frågor har attraherat förvånansvärt lite uppmärksamhet i forskning och offentlig debatt om internationellt bistånd och utveckling. I Sverige liksom globalt har diskussionen präglats av en politisk debatt mellan företagens lovsång över privatsektorns kostnadseffektivitet, och en handfull forskare, journalister och civila samhällsrepresentanter som kritiserar hur vinstdrivande företag skor sig på ansträngningar att minska den globala fattigdomen. Samtidigt påvisar denna debatt en relativt samstämmig syn på anledningarna till vinstdrivande företags ökade roll och inflytande, och denna grundar sig i en uppfattning om dessa företag som markant olika ”traditionella” biståndsaktörer. Denna uppfattning kan te sig besynnerlig i ljuset av att biståndsvärlden allt mer består av samarbeten och olika slags hybridiseringar mellan civila samhällsorganisationer, statliga biståndsmyndigheter och privata företag. Inom det upphandlade biståndsarbetet är det vanligt att kontrakterade företag använder civila samhällsorganisationer som under-entreprenörer och vice versa, och många företag har icke-vinstdrivande systerbolag.Detta forskningsprojekt studerar personer och aktörer verksamma inom upphandlat bistånd, med fokus på de nätverk och karriärvägar som sträcker sig över konsultfirmor och statliga och ideella biståndsorganisationer. Projektets fokus har tre syften: att producera jämförande kunskap om skillnader och likheter mellan vinstdrivande och icke vinstdrivande biståndsarbete; att belysa de många olika sätt som statligt, ideellt och vinstdrivande  aktörer samverkar och överlappar inom det allt mer komplexa biståndslandskapet; samt att utforska de hittills okända sociala dimensionerna av upphandlat bistånd och vinstdrivande biståndsaktörer genom en etnografisk studie av dess vardagliga arbete och de människor som utför det. Projektet fokuserar på konsultarbete i och emellan Sverige och Tanzania, två länder med en lång historia av internationellt utvecklingssamarbete. Det sträcker sig över 3 år och består av tre huvudsakliga metoder. En är intervjuer med biståndsarbetare som arbetat inom både konsultfirmor och statliga institutioner i Sverige eller Tanzania. Fokus ligger på dessa personers karriärval, kontaktnät, och erfarenheter av skillnaderna och likheterna mellan vinst-drivande och icke-vinstdrivande biståndsarbete. En andra metod är deltagande observation inom två konsultfirmor (en i Tanzania och en i Sverige). I centrum står dessa firmors anställningsvillkor, kollegiala relationer, och vardagliga verksamhet, liksom relationen mellan firmornas klienter och de anställdas professionella bakgrund och kontaktnät. Den tredje metoden utgörs av en multilokal fallstudie av konsulttjänster upphandlade av Sida i Tanzania, där projektet följer hela processen från upphandling till utvärdering av utfört konsultarbete. Fokus ligger på relationerna och kopplingarna mellan personer, aktörer och diskurser, med syfte att undersöka de sociala dimensionerna av upphandlad biståndsverksamhet och det relationella arbete som det involverar.Utöver studiens bidrag till grundläggande, empirisk kunskap om upphandlat bistånd och vinstdrivande aktörer, ämnar studien utveckla senare års antropologiska forskning om internationellt utvecklingssamarbete.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A network of expertise on these issues will be formed with two partners as incubators of the network: Dept of Peace and Conflict Research, Uppsala University and School of Security, Diplomacy, and Peace Studies, Kenyatta University (Nairobi). Activities will aim to strengthen research competence, and develop research on specific themes. Long-term, the collaboration will promote research-based knowledge on the management of communal conflict, including specific processes and methods, such as of devolution, local policing, and informal conflict resolution mechanisms. The network will enable research with a high degree of locally specific knowledge as well as comparative expertise. Previous research has improved the understanding of communal conflict, but a problem exists in that such conflicts are approached from different perspectives, including environmental studies, political science, sociology, and criminology. Our project will involve scholars with expertise from different research domains, and thereby synthesize findings on the conditions of successful community-based conflict management. While focus is primarily on Kenya, the findings have broad application on a continent where thousands of people are killed in localized, communal conflict each year. Våldsamma lokala konflikter kräver årligen tusentals liv i Afrika söder om Sahara, och bidrar till att dämpa ekonomisk, demokratisk och samhällelig utveckling. Forskningen om våldsförebyggande strategier och konflikthantering har i allt högre utsträckning kommit att betona vikten av konfliktlösningsstrategier som involverar lokalsamhällen. Detta projekt syftar till att etablera ett multidisciplinärt samarbete kring forskning om lokala svar på våldsamma konflikter Afrika och hur konfliktlösning kan stärkas genom en djupare samhällsförankring. De två huvudaktörerna i samarbetet är Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning, Uppsala universitet, och School of Security, Diplomacy, and Peace Studies vid Kenyatta University i Nairobi. De involverade forskarna kommer genom gemensamma aktiviteter och samförfattade publikationer främja nydanande och välförankrad forskning om hur lokala konflikter kan hanteras och förhindras.Tidigare forskning om våldsamma lokala konflikter har förbättrat vår kunskap om varför dessa konflikter uppstår och deras effekter. Samtidigt är vår förståelse av hur dessa konflikter kan lösas och hanteras begränsad till stor del på grund av en brist på samarbete mellan olika vetenskapliga discipliner som studerar detta fenomen – såsom kriminologi, statsvetenskap, fredsforskning, och sociologi – och dels på grund av en brist på samarbete mellan forskare i de berörda länderna, som har en djup och kontextualiserad förståelse av dessa konflikter, och dominerande internationella forskningsdebatter. Genom att upprätta detta samarbete avser vi att överbrygga båda dessa luckor. Nätverket kommer att involvera forskare från olika discipliner och länder, med ett gemensamt intresse och kompetens avseende hantering och lösning av lokala våldsamma konflikter.De involverade forskarna kommer att bedriva forskning relaterad till fyra övergripande frågor. En första handlar om hur decentralisering av politisk och ekonomisk makt – en reform som ofta införs för att minska spänningarna på nationell nivå i länder där den centrala statsmakten är omtvistad – påverkar lokala konflikter. En annan fråga handlar om polisens roll och under vilka omständigheter den statliga säkerhetsapparaten kan hantera och förhindra lokala våldsamma konflikter på ett effektivt och rättssäkert sätt. Parallellt med statens institutioner finns ofta informella strukturer och institutioner på lokal nivå som är relevanta för konflikthantering, och en tredje tematik inom nätverket är vilken roll sådana institutioner spelar och under vilka förutsättningar ed kan bidra till fredlig konfliktlösning. En fjärde fråga handlar om hur internationella aktörer kan stödja lokal konfliktlösning, med andra ord hur man kan identifiera legitima samarbetspartners och vilken typ av strategier som kan tillämpas, samt under vilka omständigheter sådant stöd kan få oavsedda negativa konsekvenser.  Genom att bygga ett starkt nätverk mellan svenska och kenyanska forskare kommer detta projekt stärka forskningen kring dessa frågor. Kenya drabbas årligen av flertalet lokala våldsamma konflikter, och det finns stora variationer inom landet avseende hur dessa hanteras och med vilken effekt. Projektet kommer också att beröra, och vara relevant för, andra länder med en liknande dynamik. Aktiviteter inom projektet – som inkluderar en workshop i Uppsala, en i Nairobi, samt en panel vid en internationell konferens – kommer att knyta till sig ytterligare forskare från den berörda regionen, och därmed etablera en grund för fortsatt brett internationellt och interdisciplinärt samarbete. Sammantaget kommer detta nätverk att möjliggöra förbättrad och mer nyanserad forskning om hur lokala våldsamma konflikter kan hanteras och lösas, och är därmed av hög relevans för förståelsen av ett fenomen som årligen orsakar tusentals människors dödsfall.

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. The network directly contributes to achieving SDGs on climate action (#13), reduced inequality (#10) and gender equality (#5), among others. 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. 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).

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. 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). 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 Zimbabwe Research/scientific institutions Other Multisector SE-0-SE-29-2019-04002_2-1 Sweden The purpose of this project is to develop the first ever Africa Network on Loss and Damage (L&D) from Climate Change. 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.

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.

Two large trials on hernia surgery have been completed during 2018/2019 and one will soon be initiated. Additional studies on paediatric surgery have also been completed and two will be initiated during 2019. Each area of study has at least one dedicated PhD student.  SignificanceFive billion people lack access to surgical care of quality at a cost that they can afford.

This is unacceptable and the work planned for will make important contributions towards better surgery for all in some of the world´s most resource deprived countries. The network that has been built up during the past years is necessary for the implementation of the research projects. Kirurgi är en oskiljaktlig del av alla sjukvårdssystem. Tillgången till kirurgi är orättvist fördelad och världens fattigaste tredjedel, där sjukdomsbördan är störst, har bara tillgång till 6.5% av den kirurgi som utförs årligen. Kirurgiska tillstånd skördar årligen fler liv än TBC, Malaria och HIV tillsammans. Utöver dessa dödsfall orsakar kirurgiska sjukdomar också betydande lidande. Mycket av detta skulle kunna undvikas med förbättrad tillgång på basal kirurgi, av god kvalitet, i tid. Kirurgi är också bland de mest kostnadseffektiva interventioner som finns!Global kirurgi har som mål att 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. 220 miljoner människor lever med ljumskbråck som årligen kostar 40000 liv. Med 20 miljoner patienter opererade per år är det bland de vanligaste utförda operationerna. Den kirurgiska volymen otillräcklig i låg och medelinkomstländer där merparten av de 200 miljoner som inte opereras lever. För att råda bot på den avsaknad av specialistkompetenta kirurger som råder i låg och medelinkomstländer så tillämpas olika grader av så kallad "task sharing". Detta koncept innebär att andra personalkategorier, med kortare utbildning än kirurger tränas till att utföra små och stora kirurgiska ingrepp. Att opereras av en specialistkompetent kirurg är ovanligt, i Afrika söder om Sahara. Task sharing är vida spritt men extremt lite evidens för hur effektivt och säkert det är existerar. I detta nätverk har två kliniska prövningar om kirurgisk utbidning och task sharing kommit halvvägs. Efter ett år har det visat sig att läkare inte är sämre än specialister i kirurgi på att operera ljumskbråck i Ghana. I Sierra Leone har vi jämfört icke-läkare med vanliga läkare och där visade det sig att icke-läkarna hade lägre frekvens av recidiv av ljumskbråck ett år efter operationen. Patienterna ska också följas upp efter 3 år. Nästa steg är att undersöka hur sjukvårdspersonal utan tidigare exponering för kirurgi ska kunna utbildas på ett säkert och effektivt sätt. Inom nätverket har vi därför utvecklat en projektidé med tillhörande videomaterial och en kirurgisk modell för ljumskbråcksoperation. Ett nytt partnerskap med forskare på Mayo Clinic, som har gedigen erfarenhet av kirurgisk simulering och modeller, har initierats och kollegor i Indien har inkluderats i ansökan för att öka omfånget av forskningen. I projektet ska blivande kirurger, läkare och icke-läkare i kirurgisk träning (studenterna) genomgå programmet som kommer hållas i både låg (Sierra Leone), medel (Indien) och höginkomstländer (USA/Norge/Sverige). Hypotesen är att träning på modell kommer leda till snabbare och säkrare inlärning av operationer på patienter.  I LMIL är hälften av befolkningen barn. Barn drabbas av andra kirurgiska sjukdomar än vuxna. Medfödda missbildningar dödar årligen 300000 barn och barn är också överrepresenterade i traumastatistiken. Många barnliv skulle kunna räddas och livslångt lidande skulle kunna förebyggas genom kirurgi. Inom ramen för det anslag som nu söks så kommer utfall efter kirurgi hos barn i Uganda undersökas. En pilotstudie visade på hög dödlighet där flera fall borde ha kunnat undvikas. I den planerade studien så kommer barn följas från operationen fram till 30 dagar postoperativt. När ett barn dör eller drabbas av en allvarlig komplikation kommer teamet (kirurg, sjuksköterskor och andra) diskutera förloppet i detalj. Resultatet kommer leda till förslag på interventioner för att minska mortalitet och morbiditet efter barnkirurgi. En eller två interventioner kommer därefter prövas. Målet med forskningen som kommer bedrivas i detta nätverk är att tillsammans skapa bättre förutsättningar för kirurgi av hög kvalitet, till rimliga kostnader för människor som lever i länder med extremt begränsade ekonomiska resurser. Det enda sättet att nå detta mål är att systematiskt undersöka vad som ska göras, hur och av vem. Vi är övertygade om att samarbete alltid lönar sig och därför har detta nätverk skapats!

Two large trials on hernia surgery have been completed during 2018/2019 and one will soon be initiated. Additional studies on paediatric surgery have also been completed and two will be initiated during 2019. Each area of study has at least one dedicated PhD student.  SignificanceFive billion people lack access to surgical care of quality at a cost that they can afford. People die and suffer from treatable conditions. This is unacceptable and the work planned for will make important contributions towards better surgery for all in some of the world´s most resource deprived countries. The network that has been built up during the past years is necessary for the implementation of the research projects. Kirurgi är en oskiljaktlig del av alla sjukvårdssystem. Tillgången till kirurgi är orättvist fördelad och världens fattigaste tredjedel, där sjukdomsbördan är störst, har bara tillgång till 6.5% av den kirurgi som utförs årligen. Kirurgiska tillstånd skördar årligen fler liv än TBC, Malaria och HIV tillsammans. Utöver dessa dödsfall orsakar kirurgiska sjukdomar också betydande lidande. Mycket av detta skulle kunna undvikas med förbättrad tillgång på basal kirurgi, av god kvalitet, i tid. Kirurgi är också bland de mest kostnadseffektiva interventioner som finns!Global kirurgi har som mål att 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. 220 miljoner människor lever med ljumskbråck som årligen kostar 40000 liv. Med 20 miljoner patienter opererade per år är det bland de vanligaste utförda operationerna. Den kirurgiska volymen otillräcklig i låg och medelinkomstländer där merparten av de 200 miljoner som inte opereras lever. För att råda bot på den avsaknad av specialistkompetenta kirurger som råder i låg och medelinkomstländer så tillämpas olika grader av så kallad "task sharing". Detta koncept innebär att andra personalkategorier, med kortare utbildning än kirurger tränas till att utföra små och stora kirurgiska ingrepp. Att opereras av en specialistkompetent kirurg är ovanligt, i Afrika söder om Sahara. Task sharing är vida spritt men extremt lite evidens för hur effektivt och säkert det är existerar. I detta nätverk har två kliniska prövningar om kirurgisk utbidning och task sharing kommit halvvägs. Efter ett år har det visat sig att läkare inte är sämre än specialister i kirurgi på att operera ljumskbråck i Ghana. I Sierra Leone har vi jämfört icke-läkare med vanliga läkare och där visade det sig att icke-läkarna hade lägre frekvens av recidiv av ljumskbråck ett år efter operationen. Patienterna ska också följas upp efter 3 år. Nästa steg är att undersöka hur sjukvårdspersonal utan tidigare exponering för kirurgi ska kunna utbildas på ett säkert och effektivt sätt. Inom nätverket har vi därför utvecklat en projektidé med tillhörande videomaterial och en kirurgisk modell för ljumskbråcksoperation. Ett nytt partnerskap med forskare på Mayo Clinic, som har gedigen erfarenhet av kirurgisk simulering och modeller, har initierats och kollegor i Indien har inkluderats i ansökan för att öka omfånget av forskningen. I projektet ska blivande kirurger, läkare och icke-läkare i kirurgisk träning (studenterna) genomgå programmet som kommer hållas i både låg (Sierra Leone), medel (Indien) och höginkomstländer (USA/Norge/Sverige). Hypotesen är att träning på modell kommer leda till snabbare och säkrare inlärning av operationer på patienter.  I LMIL är hälften av befolkningen barn. Barn drabbas av andra kirurgiska sjukdomar än vuxna. Medfödda missbildningar dödar årligen 300000 barn och barn är också överrepresenterade i traumastatistiken. Många barnliv skulle kunna räddas och livslångt lidande skulle kunna förebyggas genom kirurgi. Inom ramen för det anslag som nu söks så kommer utfall efter kirurgi hos barn i Uganda undersökas. En pilotstudie visade på hög dödlighet där flera fall borde ha kunnat undvikas. I den planerade studien så kommer barn följas från operationen fram till 30 dagar postoperativt. När ett barn dör eller drabbas av en allvarlig komplikation kommer teamet (kirurg, sjuksköterskor och andra) diskutera förloppet i detalj. Resultatet kommer leda till förslag på interventioner för att minska mortalitet och morbiditet efter barnkirurgi. En eller två interventioner kommer därefter prövas. Målet med forskningen som kommer bedrivas i detta nätverk är att tillsammans skapa bättre förutsättningar för kirurgi av hög kvalitet, till rimliga kostnader för människor som lever i länder med extremt begränsade ekonomiska resurser. Det enda sättet att nå detta mål är att systematiskt undersöka vad som ska göras, hur och av vem. Vi är övertygade om att samarbete alltid lönar sig och därför har detta nätverk skapats!

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.

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.

The project will run over 3 years in Uganda. BACKGROUND: The importance of provision of highly effective reversible post abortion contraception in reducing maternal mortality and morbidity is being increasingly recognized. PAC is acknowledged as a priority intervention in order to achieve the SDGs especially in low income countries with a high burden of unsafe abortions. The use of medical post abortion care (mPAC) has increased access to care and optimized utilization of scarce medical, as well as human, resources.RATIONALE: While immediate insertion of IUC at surgical PAC is routine practice, a disadvantage with mPAC is the practice of delayed insertion of IUC (at 2-4 weeks post PAC), resulting in a high proportion of women not returning for the follow up and IUC insertion and thus risking a new unwanted pregnancy and unsafe abortion. Currently, data and guidelines on early post mPAC IUC insertion are lacking.METHOD: An initial evaluation of barriers to IUC uptake will be followed by a randomized, multicenter trial of the effectiveness, safety and acceptability of early insertion of IUC within 4 to 7 days after mPAC compared to IUC insertion after 2-4 weeks. We will randomize 2082 women in order to show non-inferiority with early insertion in device expulsion rates and higher use of IUC at 6 months post PAC. Bakgrund: Projektet syftar till att behandla och förebygga osäkert utförda aborter genom att öka tillgången till säker behandling av inkompletta aborter samt till effektiva preventivmedel efter denna behandling. Varje år görs globalt cirka 20 miljoner illegala och osäkert utförda aborter och de komplikationer dessa medför är en av de främsta orsakerna till mödradödsfall. Post abortion care (PAC) innebär behandling av ofullständiga aborter inklusive missfall. Genom ökad tillgång PAC samt till effektiva, säkra och accepterade preventivmedel och abortmetoder, kan dessa dödsfall förebyggas. Traditionellt utförs PAC med kirurgiska metoder. Våra tidigare studier har lett till en förenklad medicinsk behandling av ofullständiga aborter genom användning av misoprostol (abortpiller). Denna behandling är säker och effektiv och väl accepterad av kvinnor. En stor fördel är att den kan utföras av barnmorskor även inom primärvården där tillgång till läkare och möjlighet till kirurgisk behandling ofta saknas. Som ett led i att minska abortrelaterad dödlighet och sjuklighet bland kvinnor världen över ingår preventivmedel och preventivmedelsrådgivning som en viktig del i PAC. Flera studier har visat att man kan minska antalet oönskade graviditeter och aborter med hjälp av effektiva och långverkande preventivmedel, tex spiral, och att dessa är den metod som de flesta kvinnor trivs bäst med. En nackdel med medicinsk PAC behandling är att man inte sätter in spiral direkt vid behandlingen som man gör vid kirurgisk behandling. Flera studier har visat att kvinnan har som störst motivation att påbörja användning av ett effektivt preventivmedel inom några dagar efter aborten. Återbesök och spiralinsättning efter medicinsk PAC sker flera veckor efter behandlingen, vilket gör att många kvinnor inte dyker upp till besöket. Dessa kvinnor står då helt utan preventivmedel. Idag saknas studier på tidig spiralinsättning efter medicinsk PAC. Projektet: Projektet genomförs på Mulago sjukhus i Kampala i centrala Uganda och vid Gulu och Lira sjukhus i norra Uganda med tillhörande hälsocentraler. Hög fertilitet och låg preventivmedelsanvändning som leder till oönskade graviditeter med efterföljande osäkra aborter är vanligt i Uganda. Hälsoministerierna liksom WHO ser det som nödvändigt att hitta metoder för att minska den höga mödradödligheten. Stöd från regeringsnivå och medverkande lokala forskare ökar projektets genomförbarhet. Syfte och metod: Övergripande syfte: Att öka användningen av spiral efter PAC. För attutvärdera effektivitet och säkerhet av insättning av spiral inom några dagar efter medicinsk PAC planeras: i) en kvalitativstudie med kartläggning av attityder och barriärer till spiral som preventivmedel bland patienter, deras partners och sjukvårdspersonal och ii) en randomiserad kontrollerad studie. Genomförande: Kvinnor som söker vård för ofullständig abort och önskar spiral efter medicinsk PAC behandling lottas till tidig (dag 4-7) eller sen (standard 2-4 veckor efter PAC) insättning av spiral. Utfallen som analyseras är frekvens utstötta spiraler, hur många som får en spiral insatt och fortsätter användningen, komplikationer, acceptans och graviditeter/aborter inom ett år. Projektets betydelse:Projektet kommer att ge helt ny information om spiralinsättning efter medicinsk PAC. Om tidig spiralinsättning är säker och leder till att fler kvinnor får en spiral efter medicinsk PAC kan detta minska risken för en ny oönskad graviditet. Att studera spiral efter medicinsk PAC är angeläget av flera skäl, bland annat brist på riktlinjer samt svårigheter att få kvinnor att återkomma för spiralinsättning efter PAC och därmed risk att kvinnor lämnas utan preventivmedel. Resultatet av studierna kan komma att bidra till minskad mödradödlighet och sjuklighet, dels genom utveckling av bättre tillgång till säker vård efter abort och dels genom att förebygga oönskade graviditeter och därmed skador och komplikationer av osäkert utförda aborter.Förutom individuella effekter på kvinnors fysiska och psykiska hälsa kan resultaten även ge positiva effekter inom hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet genom färre vårdsökande kvinnor med komplikationer från osäkra aborter, och genom effektivare användning av medicinskt utbildad personal. Resultaten kommer att publiceras i vetenskapliga och populärvetenskapliga tidskrifter samt delges politiker, forskare och kollegor i samband med nationella och internationella konferenser.

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.

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. 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.

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.

In Africa, several exotic species such as Bactrocera dorsalis and Zeugodacus cucurbitae, have exacerbated the already serious damage caused by native Tephritidae. Management of fruit flies is mainly done indirectly through suppressing the male population using parapheromones in male annihilation technique. This method is not effective for smallholder farms and needs to be integrated with methods that directly target the female population. Developing female attractants have an enormous prospective in novel sustainable fruit fly management strategies. Recently, we conducted an exhaustive comparative analysis of olfactory sensitivities across tephritids and extracted attractants from there. While the proof of principle has been shown in the lab, these have not been translated into field lures yet. Here, in addition to the common olfactory organ: the antennae, we would first examine the olfactory responses of the maxillary palp to host and non-host cues using Gas chromatography coupled to electro palpo detector (GC-EPD), then using single sensillum recordings (SSR) and RNA-sequencing we aim to identify olfactory receptors for parapheromones, we finally optimize the field release of synthetic lures and accelerate the translation of olfactory responses to field application, ultimately reinforcing integrated pest management (IPM) of fruit fly pests in Africa. Oemotståndlig cocktailblandning kan förföra insekter som hotar våra frukter och grönsaker Miljontals dollar går varje år förlorade som ett resultat av skador på frukt orsakat av borrflugor. Denna påverkan är allvarligast för fattiga bönder i utvecklingsländer, där stora summor spenderas på pesticider som hotar både natur och mänskors hälsa. En säkrare sätt vore att blanda attraktiva “cocktails” för borrflugehonorna, för att fånga honorna innan de lägger ägg i frukterna. I vårt laboratorium på SLU Alnarp så har vi gjort en sådan cocktail, redo att användas ute den riktiga världen.Efter att borrflugorna lokaliserat en lämplig frukt, tränger honborrflugornas äggledare genom skinnet och lägger sina ägg inuti frukten. Äggen utvecklas så småningom till larver som livnär sig på de köttiga delarna av frukten och förstör dessa för mänsklig användning. För de flesta odlare i Afrika är fruktproduktion den enda källan till inkomst och förluster är direkt associerade med en minskad matsäkerhet. Hotet omfattar också förlusten av jobb och en minskning av frukttillgången på marknaden. En enorm mängd pengar läggs också på skyddsåtgärder mot flugorna. Exempelvis spenderas mer än 7 miljoner dollar per år enbart på pesticider i afrikanska kommersiella fruktodlingar.Då vi människor bedömer en frukt är det i första hand smaken vi värderar, men även doften och färgen. För borrflugor är den karaktäristiska doften av en frukt det viktiga. Luktsinnet har avgörande betydelse för deras dagliga liv och fortlevnad. Men vad får en frukt att lukta som den gör? Och varför är lukten så avgörande för daggflugor?Fruktdoft utgörs av flyktiga blandningar av kemikalier som frukterna utsöndrar. Dessa kemiska komponenter är väldigt viktiga för borrflugor eftersom det är med doften som de lokaliserar, känner igen och identifierar en frukt från en annan med stor precision. Borrflugor kan också med lätthet differentiera en banan från en apelsin, kanske till och med bättre än oss, men istället för näsa använder de som doftorgan antenner och maxillära palper, även om inte mycket är känt om det senare.Hanborrflugor är lättlurade. En enda kemisk doft kan lura in hanar i en dödlig fälla. Idag använder fruktodlare sig av detta genom att nyttja manligt specifika och effektiva lockämnen, vilket på så sätt minskar hanflugorna i fruktplantager. Dock är problemet att en enda hane kan befrukta flera honor och en enda hona kan lägga tusentals av ägg under sin livstid. Den bästa lösningen för att skydda våra odlingar är att hitta dofter som också förför honflugorna in i dödliga fällor. Men problemet är att honorna är inte lika lättlurade som hanarna.Tyvärr är inte en enstaka kemisk komponent tillräcklig för att attrahera och fånga honor. Vad vi vet är att honorna följer doftplymer för att hitta en lämplig frukt för sin avkomma. Kanske skulle det gå att imitera en fruktdoft som kan attrahera honor. Utmaningen är att vi då behöver veta vilka specifika komponenter av en frukt och vilka specifika kombinationer av dessa komponenter som skulle vara attraktiva för honborrflugor. En enstaka frukt är laddad med ett överflöd av kemiska komponenter, varav de flesta inte har någon, eller en minimal vikt för borrflugan. Det betyder att vi måste ha en mekanik som möjliggör identifiering av de komponenter som är viktiga för honborrflugorna.Forskare har utvecklat ett instrument som separerar flyktiga komponenter i en frukt och skickar signaler mot insekternas doftorgan. Flugan känner de olika doftkomponenterna och instrumenten kan identifiera de viktigaste. Genom att använda instrumentet i vårt laboratorium på SLU i Alnarp har vi identifierat flera flyktiga ämnen från fyra frukter. Vi använde komponenterna för att blanda en cocktail som doftar som en falsk superfrukt vilken konkurrerar ut doften från de enskilda frukterna när de förekommer var för sig. Den artificiella fruktdoften kan locka till sig honorna som hotar våra frukter. Vad som vore ännu mer intressant vore om vi blandade i fler dofter så att vi lurar honor av ännu fler olika arter in i fällan. Vi har idag redan blandat ihop en sådan supercocktail. Den är redo att användas och fungerar utmärkt i laboratoriet, nu återstår det att testa den ute i den riktiga världen.Genom att locka honorna med denna cocktail hoppas vi inom en snar framtid kunna öka skörden från vår frukt och samtidigt minska hälsorisker och negativ miljöpåverkan som är förknippad med användning av insekticider.

This model provides a foundation for designing more targeted lures, tailored to the specific olfactory responses of pest species. No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-04421-1 Sweden Tephritid fruit flies are global pests in fruits and vegetables with severe impacts in production and international trade. In Africa, several exotic species such as Bactrocera dorsalis and Zeugodacus cucurbitae, have exacerbated the already serious damage caused by native Tephritidae. Management of fruit flies is mainly done indirectly through suppressing the male population using parapheromones in male annihilation technique. This method is not effective for smallholder farms and needs to be integrated with methods that directly target the female population. Developing female attractants have an enormous prospective in novel sustainable fruit fly management strategies. Recently, we conducted an exhaustive comparative analysis of olfactory sensitivities across tephritids and extracted attractants from there. While the proof of principle has been shown in the lab, these have not been translated into field lures yet. Here, in addition to the common olfactory organ: the antennae, we would first examine the olfactory responses of the maxillary palp to host and non-host cues using Gas chromatography coupled to electro palpo detector (GC-EPD), then using single sensillum recordings (SSR) and RNA-sequencing we aim to identify olfactory receptors for parapheromones, we finally optimize the field release of synthetic lures and accelerate the translation of olfactory responses to field application, ultimately reinforcing integrated pest management (IPM) of fruit fly pests in Africa. Oemotståndlig cocktailblandning kan förföra insekter som hotar våra frukter och grönsaker Miljontals dollar går varje år förlorade som ett resultat av skador på frukt orsakat av borrflugor. Denna påverkan är allvarligast för fattiga bönder i utvecklingsländer, där stora summor spenderas på pesticider som hotar både natur och mänskors hälsa. En säkrare sätt vore att blanda attraktiva “cocktails” för borrflugehonorna, för att fånga honorna innan de lägger ägg i frukterna. I vårt laboratorium på SLU Alnarp så har vi gjort en sådan cocktail, redo att användas ute den riktiga världen.Efter att borrflugorna lokaliserat en lämplig frukt, tränger honborrflugornas äggledare genom skinnet och lägger sina ägg inuti frukten. Äggen utvecklas så småningom till larver som livnär sig på de köttiga delarna av frukten och förstör dessa för mänsklig användning. För de flesta odlare i Afrika är fruktproduktion den enda källan till inkomst och förluster är direkt associerade med en minskad matsäkerhet. Hotet omfattar också förlusten av jobb och en minskning av frukttillgången på marknaden. En enorm mängd pengar läggs också på skyddsåtgärder mot flugorna.

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.

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.

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.

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. 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 Agricultural research Agriculture SE-0-SE-29-2019-04468_2-1 Sweden Agriculture in less-developed countries is characterized by small, fragmented farms, low rates of mechanization, and inefficient allocation of land across farmers. 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.

Using a new population-based cohort the Africa Medical and Behavioral Sciences Organization (AMBSO) population health surveillance  in urban Uganda, we aim to analyse and prevent the occurrence and determinants of NCDs, specifically hypertension and diabetes, causing lifelong disability and premature death in young adults. NCD research in low-income settings is still in its infancy, but we have a unique opportunity in time to identify effective policy strategies for prevention and early detection, since these chronic conditions are costly and resource-demanding to treat. The NCD rise in urban areas is due to longer life expectancy (reduced child mortality and access to HIV treatment), but also changing dietary, smoking, drinking, transport and work habits. Though poorly known so far, these traditional determinants likely interact with preterm birth/malnourishment, chronic infections (e.g. HIV), antimicrobials, air pollution and stressors related to poverty and gender-based violence. Through a new collaboration between KI and AMBSO, our team is highly qualified to deliver results contributing to future health policy and several of the SDGs (1,3,4,5,11) in Uganda and beyond, directly promoting sustainable development and lifestyles, human rights, gender equality and cultural diversity through education through mutual learning, professional exchange and capacity building (SDG 4.7). Infektionssjukdomar har helt dominerat i låg-inkomstländer i Afrika, som Uganda, men detta börjar förändras och förekomsten av icke smittsamma sjukdomar som hjärtkärlsjukdom diabetes, cancer och lungsjukdomar har flerdubblats och förväntas fortsätta öka dramatiskt det närmaste decenniet. Förekomsten av högt blodtryck och diabetes i städer i Afrika söder om Sahara är redan minst lika hög som i Europa. En del av orsakerna känner vi till. Det handlar om fler människor blir äldre tack vare att många barn numera överlever sin 5-årsdag (mest pga vaccination), liksom den ökade tillgången till HIV-medicin som gör att över 20 miljoner unga afrikaner kan leva långa produktiva liv. Ökad ålder, särskilt efter klimakteriet för kvinnor, är en stark riskfaktor för hjärtkärlsjukdom och diabetes. Afrika växer och urbaniseras snabbast i världen, med en fördubbling av dagens befolkning på 1.1. miljarder år 2050, 80% av denna ökning sker städer, mest i slummen. Med bättre ekonomi och snabb urbanisering förändras nu livsstilen för många bla i Uganda. Fler röker, dricker alkohol, åker bil/buss, har mindre rörliga arbeten och blir överviktiga då de inte längre kan odla sin egen mat samt har råd med friterad snabbmat och söta drycker. Andra riskfaktorer som av betydelse i denna kontext vet vi mindre om. Långvarig inflammation vid tex HIV ökar risken för hjärtkärlsjukdomar och cancer. I de städernas växande slumområdena påverkar sannolikt också miljöfaktorer som luftföroreningar, fattigdom, trångboddhet och könsbaserat våld. Genetiska skillnader och undernäring i fosterlivet (många föds underviktiga), tycks öka risken för kärlskador, högt blodtryck och diabetes senare i livet. Mögelgifter i kosten, liksom tidig exponering för antibiotika påverkar tarmfloran och möjligen risken för icke-smittsamma sjukdomar. Att förstå hur dessa faktorer samverkar är viktigt för att kunna förebygga förtida död eller svåra handikapp pga stroke, blindhet, hjärt- eller njursjukdom som orsakas av sent diagnosticerad/underbehandlad diabetes och högt blodtryck. När en familjeförsörjare dör eller skadas, drivs hela familjen in i fattigdom, barnen tas ur skolan och framtidsutsikterna minskar.Samtidigt som de icke smittsamma sjukdomarna ökar har infektionsproblematiken inte försvunnit och graviditets- och nyföddhetssjukdomar är fortfarande mycket vanliga. I de flesta afrikanska länder är sjukvårdssystemet inte rustat att hantera kroniska sjukdomar, pga brist på personal och lab-resurser för återbesök, livslång medicinering eller läkemedelslagring.Det är därför extra viktigt att förebygga och förhindra denna sjuklighet i låginkomstländer som Uganda, då förebyggande åtgärder är mycket mer kostnadseffektiva än att ta hand om sjuka eller att förlora unga och medelålders vuxna.Organisationen AMBSO, Africa Medical and Behavioral Sciences Organization, skapades 2016 för att bedriva forskning och preventivt arbete genom en hälso-demografisk surveillance-site. I brist på befolkningsregister behövs dessa siter för kartlägga förekomsten av riskfaktorer och sjukdomar i länder där de flesta söker sjukvård sent eller inte alls. I årliga stora representativa undersökningar samlas data in via intervjuer (boende, ekonomi, familj, sjukdomshistoria och riskbeteenden) och provtagning (tex HIV/mikrobiom-tester, blodfetter,blodsocker, BMI, blodtryck) från utvalda populationer följer antalet födslar, dödsfall och in-och utflytt följs noggrannt.  Tillsammans med AMBSO vill vi på Karolinska Institutet (KI) skapa en plattform för forskning. Kunskap-och attityder kring dessa sjukdomar, riskbeteende och vård ska analyseras för att förstå vilka preventiva åtgärder som är rimliga och möjliga. Genom detta samarbete kommer vi att bidra till kapacitetsbyggande, något som vårt team på KI har gedigen erfarenhet av tex i de Sida-finansierade doktorandprogrammen i Uganda och Tanzania.Våra resultat kommer att vara av stort värde för framtida policy då mycket få har studerat dessa frågor i ÖstAfrika och vi har nu ett unikt tidsfönster att kunna förebygga allvarliga sjukdomstillstånd, bidra till minskad dödlighet och även bidra till de globala hållbarhetsmålen kring hälsa, jämlikhet, hållbara städer och fattigdomsbekämpning.

Both REDD+ (to reduce emissions from deforestation and degradation) and Forest Landscape Restoration have received amble hype, but financing and implementation have lacked. The “Good Wood” novel timber processing business concept is designed to restore degraded tropical forests while harvesting small timber in a profitable business—thereby meeting all these challenges—but it is thus far primarily theoretical and lacks the research to implement it as evidence-based practice.We will assess the extent to which this concept delivers on carbon, restoration, timber, and socioeconomic improvements in 3 WPs: (1) design, implement, and monitor a new model for restorative forest management for tropical forests, (2) quantify carbon, restoration, and timber outcomes from the new management model and compare to business-as-usual forestry and protection, and (3) assess business viability and livelihood benefits (equal opportunity employment in a safe environment). We will work in close collaboration with local managers and employ mixed field-based and modeling approaches. Outcomes of this research will be highly relevant to sustainable development and other global agendas—providing a tangible solution for governments, NGOs, and business entrepreneurs and investors. Under de senaste 100 åren har människans rovdrift lämnat efter sig enorma arealer degraderad skogsmark, som är långt ifrån sin ekologiska och ekonomiska potential. En global kartläggning av World Resources Institute visar att den totala arealen som lämpar sig för restaurering, utan att konkurrera med matproduktion eller bosättning, uppgår till hela 2 Miljarder ha (av jordens totala 13 Mdr ha landyta).Det är alltså inte konstigt att restaurering av degraderade skogsmarker nu förs fram som en central strategi för att uppfylla Parisavtalet och nå de globala hållbarhetsmålen, samt manifesteras i globala initiativ som the Bonn Challenge och REDD+. Hittills har dock ytterst lite sagts om konkreta strategier för hur restaurering ska gå till och finansieras.Vi ser en stor potential i en övergång till ett hållbart och restaurerande skogsbruk på betydande delar av dessa degraderade marker. I de flesta skogar är timmer för virkesproduktion den produkt som har den absolut största ekonomiska potentialen. Därför kan timmer utgöra ett incitament för småbrukare att behålla, sköta och restaurera en stående skog. Kraven på legalitet och hållbarhet i virkesupphandlingen ökar nu både från lokala och internationella marknader. Idag finns även ny teknik som möjliggör högkvalitativ och kundanpassad lokal förädling vilket kan ge direkt access till väl betalande marknader utan att gå via de traditionella handelsleden som allt för ofta utgör ett hinder för effektiv kommunikation och nödvändig produktutveckling. Idag saknas dock etablerade och, i större skala, implementerade modeller för en ekonomiskt bärkraftig restaurering av degraderade tropiska skogar. Det saknas därmed också forskning som visar effekterna av sådana modeller.Detta forskningsprojekt siktar på att ta ett stort steg i att fylla denna lucka, genom att implementera, modellera och utvärdera effekterna av en ny modell för hållbar virkesproduktion anpassad för degraderad tropisk skog, ”The Good Wood Concept”.The Good Wood Concept har utvecklats under det senaste decenniet av en grupp bestående av skogsexperter som varit verksamma i hela Globala Syd som rådgivande inom skogsskötsel, certifiering och virkesförädling och experter inom grön innovation, hållbar stadsutveckling och entreprenörskap. Konceptet innebär adaption och innovation inom alla delar av trävärdekedjan, från skogsskötsel, virkesförädling och energiproduktion, till tillverkning och upphandling av träprodukter. På så vis kan fler träd av olika arter, klenare dimensioner och varierande kvalitet användas, samt utnyttjandegraden av dessa ökas, vilket ger förutsättningar för en restaurerande hållbar skogsskötsel i degraderade skogar.Forskningsprojektet kommer under tre år att utveckla och implementera skogsskötselplaner i enlighet med detta koncept i tre olika skogsområden kopplat till tre virkesproducenter i Tanzania, Mocambique och Guatemala. Effekterna kommer att modelleras och utvärderas i termer av virkesvärde, kolbindning, biologisk mångfald och socioekonomiska effekter. Dessutom kommer den ekonomiska gångbarheten och skalbarheten att uppskattas enligt traditionella investeringskriterier.Vår förhoppning är att resultaten från denna studie kommer att kunna användas av de regeringar, organisationer och fonder som vill skapa utveckling och ekonomi baserat på naturskogarna, samt uppfylla sina åtaganden inom skogsrestaurering, klimat och skydd av biodiversitet. Vi hoppas även på direkt praktisk användning av resultaten för de entreprenörer som vill vara med och starta upp en ny generation av hållbara, restaurerande och lönsamma skogsbruk i Globala Syd.På lång sikt är vår förhoppning att medverka till att ändra det nu rådande destruktiva paradigmet inom tropiskt skogsbruk, till ett där långsiktigt hållbar skogsskötsel ökar virkesvärden, kollager och stärker ekosystemtjänster, samt kännetecknas av tre sammanlänkade utvecklingsfaktorer:De lokala rättmätiga markägarnas kontroll över, och värdetillväxt i, sin skogModernt och skalbart entreprenörskap som bygger samhällenKonkurrenskraft hos medvetna etiska köpare av virke och träprodukter 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 Forestry research Forestry Saknas No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-04669-1 Sweden As the decade of restoration approaches, global aspirations are high—to restore 350 million ha, limit climate change to 1.5ºC, improve livelihoods, and supply a growing demand for forest products. Both REDD+ (to reduce emissions from deforestation and degradation) and Forest Landscape Restoration have received amble hype, but financing and implementation have lacked. The “Good Wood” novel timber processing business concept is designed to restore degraded tropical forests while harvesting small timber in a profitable business—thereby meeting all these challenges—but it is thus far primarily theoretical and lacks the research to implement it as evidence-based practice.We will assess the extent to which this concept delivers on carbon, restoration, timber, and socioeconomic improvements in 3 WPs: (1) design, implement, and monitor a new model for restorative forest management for tropical forests, (2) quantify carbon, restoration, and timber outcomes from the new management model and compare to business-as-usual forestry and protection, and (3) assess business viability and livelihood benefits (equal opportunity employment in a safe environment). We will work in close collaboration with local managers and employ mixed field-based and modeling approaches. Outcomes of this research will be highly relevant to sustainable development and other global agendas—providing a tangible solution for governments, NGOs, and business entrepreneurs and investors. Under de senaste 100 åren har människans rovdrift lämnat efter sig enorma arealer degraderad skogsmark, som är långt ifrån sin ekologiska och ekonomiska potential. En global kartläggning av World Resources Institute visar att den totala arealen som lämpar sig för restaurering, utan att konkurrera med matproduktion eller bosättning, uppgår till hela 2 Miljarder ha (av jordens totala 13 Mdr ha landyta).Det är alltså inte konstigt att restaurering av degraderade skogsmarker nu förs fram som en central strategi för att uppfylla Parisavtalet och nå de globala hållbarhetsmålen, samt manifesteras i globala initiativ som the Bonn Challenge och REDD+. Hittills har dock ytterst lite sagts om konkreta strategier för hur restaurering ska gå till och finansieras.Vi ser en stor potential i en övergång till ett hållbart och restaurerande skogsbruk på betydande delar av dessa degraderade marker. I de flesta skogar är timmer för virkesproduktion den produkt som har den absolut största ekonomiska potentialen. Därför kan timmer utgöra ett incitament för småbrukare att behålla, sköta och restaurera en stående skog. Kraven på legalitet och hållbarhet i virkesupphandlingen ökar nu både från lokala och internationella marknader.

This project aims to explore the effects of epigenetic- and immune-modulating drugs on MDR-TB in Ethiopia. Our data from TB patients suggests that impaired cellular immunity in infected tissue is associated with high expression of suppressive immune checkpoint molecules. However, effector mechanisms in TB-infected cells can be enhanced by histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi). In a clinical trial in Ethiopia, we recently demonstrated that vitamin D3 and the HDACi, phenylbutyrate, could improve recovery from pulmonary TB. Using mass cytometry and chromatin profiling, we will now study immune checkpoint molecules and epigenetic alterations in immune cells obtained from treatment-responders with drug-susceptible or MDR-TB (year 1). In parallel, we will enroll an MDR-TB cohort to test selected HDACi on alveolar macrophage function and if blockade with immune checkpoint modulators can enhance cytotoxic T cell responses in blood cells in vitro (year 1-3). Next, patients’ MDR-TB isolates will be used in an in vitro infection model to test if epigenetic priming in combination with immune checkpoint modulation will enhance effector cell function and reduce bacterial growth (year 3). This collaborative project will promote clinical discoveries and the development of next-generation therapies for difficult-to-treat MDR-TB patients. Tuberkulos (TB) är en luftburen bakteriell lungsjukdom med ett starkt globalt fäste framför allt i utvecklingsländer i Afrika och Asien. Ett allvarligt hot mot den globala kontrollen av TB spridning är utvecklingen av antibiotika resistens och framför allt multidrogresistent TB sk. MDR-TB. Dessa bakteriestammar är resistenta mot många eller ibland samtliga befintliga antibiotika vi har att tillgå för att bota TB. Befintlig MDR-TB behandling kan uppgå till över 2 år och bli väldigt kostsam för drabbade familjer men också för samhället. Vår forskning syftar till utveckla ny immunterapi som kan användas för att stödja befintlig antibiotika behandling och på så sätt förbättra och förkorta vård av MDR-TB.Vi vet att tuberkulosbakterien infekterar och överlever inuti vita blodkroppar sk. makrofager, särskilt i lungan. Trots att makrofagen kan svara på infektionen med en rad avancerade försvarsmekanismer, så kan bakterien ändå klara sig och undkomma avdödning. På så sätt kan TB infektion etableras och involverar i ett senare skede i infektionsförloppet även andra immunceller sk. T celler, vars funktion också är avgörande för hur kroppen kan hantera TB infektionen. Tillsammans med forskare i Etiopien arbetar forskargruppen med ett nytt koncept som innebär att vi använder oss av preparat med effekt på sk. epigenetisk modifiering samt immun-modulering, av immunceller som är viktiga för att kontrollera eller avlägsna TB infektion. Epigenetiska modifieringar av DNA i kroppens celler, innebär att kemiska förändringar av DNA molekylen påverkar hur tillgängligt detta är för att översättas till proteiner eller byggstenar som vidare kan påverka olika signalvägar i tex. immunsystemets celler i kroppen. Immun-modulerande preparat har istället en direkt effekt på olika proteiner som uttrycks av eller i immunceller och kan därmed styra hur immuncellerna ska svara. Tuberkulosbakterien har utvecklat strategier för att blockera effektiv aktivering av immunceller, och tanken är att preparaten med epigenetiska- och immun-modulerande egenskaper tillsammans ska motverka denna blockering och låsa upp och stärka immunsvaret vilket kan påskynda utläkning av sjukdom.Det finns en grupp preparat som kan reglera epigenetiska mekanismer och som kallas för histone deacetylas inhibitorer (HDACi). I en klinisk prövning i Etiopien, har vi undersökt om behandling med en HDACi (fenylbutyrat), tillsammans med vitamin D, kan samverka för att stärka immunsvaret och förhindra sjukdomsförloppet hos patienter med lungtuberkulos. Prövningen visade att preparaten kan minska TB symtom avsevärt och vi har nu för avsikt att närmare studera immunsvar och epigenetiska förändringar i immunceller från de patienter som svarat bäst på behandlingen jämfört med patienter som fått placebo läkemedel. Vi tror att dessa analyser kan hjälpa oss att identifiera uttryck av specifika molekyler på ytan av immunceller i blodet, som vi kan reglera med epigenetiska- och immun-modulerande preparat med avsikten att stärka kroppens egna immunsvar mot bakterien. För att kunna testa vår hypotes, kommer vi vidare att samla in hostprover samt blodprover och lungvävnads biopsier från Etiopiska patienter med MDR-TB. Makrofager isoleras från hostprov och behandlas med ett flertal olika HDACi för att studera vilken som bäst kan stärka cellens försvarsmekanismer och öka bakteriell avdödning. Från samma patienter testar vi om olika immun-modulerande preparat kan blockera de molekyler och signalvägar som vi tror har en negativ inverkan på T celler i blodet, och på så sätt stärka T cellers funktion samt deras förmåga att kontrollera TB sjukdom. Till sist avser vi att kombinera en kandidat HDACi med en immun-modulator med syftet att först 1.) aktivera MDR-TB-infekterade makrofager, för att i nästa steg 2.) aktivera T cellerna vars funktion är att döda infekterade makrofager. Vår förhoppning är att kunna tyda mönster som kopplar en viss epigenetisk förändring i MDR-TB-infekterade celler till en ökning av försvarsmekanismer hos immuncellerna. Positiva resultat från vår forskning bidrar direkt till patientnyttan, eftersom preparat som stärker immunsvar har möjligheten att stödja konventionell antibiotika behandling och påskynda utläkningen av svårbehandlad MDR-TB. Likt modern cancersjukvård, så strävar vi emot en individanpassad TB sjukvård som innebär flera behandlingsalternativ som i längden kan förkorta och förbättra behandling samt minska utveckling av antibiotika resistens.

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.

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.

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. Därför behövs bioteknologisk innovation i denna region för att ta fram grödor som är resilienta mot klimatförändringarnas effekter med förbättrad produktivitet, som har bättre kvalitet och näringsvärde. Forskning och utveckling (FoU) kommer att vara viktiga faktorer för att garantera framsteg i jordbruket i Centralamerika. Syftet med detta förslag är att etablera nätverket Sverige-Centralamerika och tillsammans utveckla funktionella grödor med högt näringsvärde och resiliens mot effekterna av klimatförändringar. För att uppnå detta kommer konsortiet att organiseras i fyra olika arbetspaket (WP) som kommer att utveckla, utvärdera och genomföra användningen av grödor med ökat näringsvärde och motståndskraft för att säkerställa livsmedelssäkerhet för framtiden.Detta förslag fokuserar på två centralamerikanska länder, Honduras och Guatemala, och i två mycket viktiga lokala grödor, sötpotatis och ”yam bean”, lokalt känd som "ahipa" eller "jicama" (Pachirhizus spp.). Internationella potatiscentret i Peru (CIP-Peru) arbetar redan med att utveckla biofortifierade sorter av sötpotatis och nyligen påbörjades experiment med yam bean; i båda fallen används verktyg från klassisk växtförädling. Det finns dock ett behov av avancerad analys på molekylär nivå. För att främja användningen av nya växtbioteknik är en nyckeluppgift för nätverket att öka dialogen mellan forskare och beslutsfattare.Nationella regeringar i Centralamerika är medvetna om allvaret av undernäring och klimatförändringar. Båda länderna har startat lokala initiativ som syftar till att utveckla sitt jordbruk för att utrota undernäringen och att möta klimatförändringarna. Alla dessa ansträngningar är emellertid inte tillräckliga. Det är också viktigt med modern växtbioteknik kombinerat med lämpliga studier av biotillgänglighet, samt ett balanserat och väl fungerande rättsligt ramverk.

No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2019-05109_1-1 Sweden Together, classical plant breeding and modern plant biotechnology methods, i.e. integrated –omics analysis, can greatly contribute to the efficient development of improved crops. 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.

This project is an interdisciplinary cooperation between Uganda and Sweden. Efter att ett barnbarn till Hans Rosling, den berömda professorn i internationell hälsa, fick hjärnhinneinflammation så infördes en viktig förändring för alla barn i Sverige. Hans Roslings och hans kollegors påverkansarbete ledde till att från 2009 har alla barn i Sverige rätt till vaccination mot en av de bakterier som kan orsaka hjärnhinneinflammation, det är nu en del av det allmänna barndomsvaccinationsprogrammet. Hjärnhinneinflammation är dock en komplex sjukdom som kan orsakas av många olika organismer såsom bakterier, virus och parasiter och idag finns det endast vaccin som skyddar mot vissa av dessa organismer. Följaktligen, när ett barn kommer till akuten med feber och andra symptom som kan tyda på  att barnet har hjärnhinneinflammation så beställer läkaren omedelbart en serie olika kliniska labbtester för att klargöra om barnet har hjärnhinneinflammation och i så fall vilken organism som ligger bakom. Att klargöra den specifika orsaken bakom en patients hjärnhinneinflammation är väsentligt eftersom det tillåter läkaren att sätta in den rätta behandlingen som krävs i just det fallet. Dessa labbtester är dock dyra, kräver avancerad labbutrustning och måste utföras och tolkas av specialiserad labbpersonal och mikrobiologer. När ett barn uppvisar tecken på hjärnhinneinflammation i ett låginkomstland såsom Uganda är det ofta att det närmsta sjukhuset inte har de resurser som krävs för att utföra testerna som kan klargöra vilken organism som orsakar sjukdomen. Allt som oftast blir barn på landsbygden i Uganda behandlade med antibiotika men tillfrisknar ändå inte, eftersom de får fel behandling på grund av de bristfälliga diagnostiska testerna.Mitt forskningsprojekt går ut på att bemöta detta behov av förbättrad diagnostik av hjärnhinneinflammation i resursfattiga områden och tillsammans med forskare i Uganda utveckla ett patientnära diagnostiskt verktyg. Ett verktyg som är portabelt, billigt och som kan användas i sjukhus som inte har tillgång till avancerad labbutrustning. Verktyget bör vara pålitligt och jämförbart med de som används i Sverige men designat specifikt för de omständigheter som råder i Ugandas sjukvårdssystemet. På KTH har vi kommit en lång väg med att utveckla ett sådant verktyg men vi har inte utvärderat dess användbarhet i verkliga kliniska situationer. Under mitt projekt kommer jag att arbeta tillsammans med Mbarara Hospital och Läkare Utan Gränsers forskningslaboratorium i Mbarara, Uganda för att utforma verktyget så att det passar in på deras sjukhus som vårdar många fattiga familjer.Varför är detta projekt viktigt? Förbättring av hälsa är nära sammankopplat med utplåning av extrem fattigdom och det finns ett enormt behov av innovation inom lågkostnadsdiagnostik. Vi vet också att överanvändning av antibiotika för att behandla icke-bakteriella infektioner är ett globalt problem som bidrar till utvecklingen av antibiotikaresistens även här i Sverige. Forskning inom detta fält kan leda till ny kunskap som gynnar barn i resursfattiga områden och är därmed en investering i en friskare och mer jämställd värld.

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. Moreover, the characterization of HIV transmission in the general population and high-risk groups, based on both viral and detailed epidemiological and behavioural factors, will provide new insights of how drug-resistant HIV strains disseminate.The results of this project will have direct impact for ART programs in Ethiopia and for similar settings in the world, where HIV-1 subtype C is dominant. Den globala expansionen av bromsmediciner mot HIV infektion anses vara en av de största folkhälsoinsatser som någonsin genomförts. Hittills är resultaten lovande både vad gäller hälsa och överlevnad hos HIV positiva individer. Framväxten av läkemedelsresistenta virusvarianter utgör ett ständigt hot mot den globala expansionen av bromsmediciner. Eftersom bromsmedicinprogram i de flesta regioner i världen inte omfattar övervakning av virusmängd eller tester för att se ifall det kan finnas mutationer hos viruset, är det troligt att uppkomst och överföring av läkemedelsresistenta virus kan ske obemärkt under längre tidsperioder.Dessutom, även om det totala antalet Hiv-fall i många länder har minskat, kan överföring av resistenta virus fortsätta framför allt i grupper som har ett riskbeteende som kan HIV infektion. Sådana befolkningsgrupper kan också vara svåra att nå i förebyggande insatser och vård. De kan även ha beteenden som ökar risken för oregelbunden behandling. Dessa faktorer kan främja utvecklingen av läkemedelsresistens.Vårt forskningsprojekt bygger på stora representativa grupper av HIV positiva individer från olika delar av Etiopien, den näst folkrikaste nationen i Afrika söder om Sahara, och omfattar både Hiv-positiva patienter och individer med hög risk för HIV smitta. Långtidsuppföljning och tillgång till epidemiologiska och kliniska data samt arvsmassa från HIV kommer att kunna leda till ny och relevant information om de mönster och följder spridning av antiretroviral läkemedelsresistens kan ha. Denna kunskap kommer att vara till direkt nytta för modifiering av behandlingsprogram, och kommer att bidra till bättre bedömningar om behovet av rutinmässig virusmängdövervakning och resistenstestning i Afrika söder om Sahara. Dessutom kommer karakterisering av HIV spridningen i den allmänna befolkningen och högriskgrupper ge ny förståelse för hur HIV fortsätter att sprida i denna del av världen, vilket i sin tur möjliggör en effektivare utformning av förebyggande program.

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 Ethiopia STD control including HIV/AIDS Population Policies/Programmes & Reproductive Health SE-0-SE-29-2019-05235_2-1 Sweden The global expansion of antiretroviral treatment (ART) is one of the greatest public health interventions ever undertaken. 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. Moreover, the characterization of HIV transmission in the general population and high-risk groups, based on both viral and detailed epidemiological and behavioural factors, will provide new insights of how drug-resistant HIV strains disseminate.The results of this project will have direct impact for ART programs in Ethiopia and for similar settings in the world, where HIV-1 subtype C is dominant. Den globala expansionen av bromsmediciner mot HIV infektion anses vara en av de största folkhälsoinsatser som någonsin genomförts. Hittills är resultaten lovande både vad gäller hälsa och överlevnad hos HIV positiva individer. Framväxten av läkemedelsresistenta virusvarianter utgör ett ständigt hot mot den globala expansionen av bromsmediciner. Eftersom bromsmedicinprogram i de flesta regioner i världen inte omfattar övervakning av virusmängd eller tester för att se ifall det kan finnas mutationer hos viruset, är det troligt att uppkomst och överföring av läkemedelsresistenta virus kan ske obemärkt under längre tidsperioder.Dessutom, även om det totala antalet Hiv-fall i många länder har minskat, kan överföring av resistenta virus fortsätta framför allt i grupper som har ett riskbeteende som kan HIV infektion. Sådana befolkningsgrupper kan också vara svåra att nå i förebyggande insatser och vård. De kan även ha beteenden som ökar risken för oregelbunden behandling. Dessa faktorer kan främja utvecklingen av läkemedelsresistens.Vårt forskningsprojekt bygger på stora representativa grupper av HIV positiva individer från olika delar av Etiopien, den näst folkrikaste nationen i Afrika söder om Sahara, och omfattar både Hiv-positiva patienter och individer med hög risk för HIV smitta. Långtidsuppföljning och tillgång till epidemiologiska och kliniska data samt arvsmassa från HIV kommer att kunna leda till ny och relevant information om de mönster och följder spridning av antiretroviral läkemedelsresistens kan ha. Denna kunskap kommer att vara till direkt nytta för modifiering av behandlingsprogram, och kommer att bidra till bättre bedömningar om behovet av rutinmässig virusmängdövervakning och resistenstestning i Afrika söder om Sahara. Dessutom kommer karakterisering av HIV spridningen i den allmänna befolkningen och högriskgrupper ge ny förståelse för hur HIV fortsätter att sprida i denna del av världen, vilket i sin tur möjliggör en effektivare utformning av förebyggande program. Denna information kommer att vara särskilt värdefull eftersom det kan kopplas till detaljerade ny kunskap om uppkomst av läkemedelsresistens.Resultaten vårt forskningsprojekt är uppenbara och kommer att ha en direkt betydelse för bromsmedicinprogram i Etiopien och omgivande länder, där en genetisk variant som kallas subtyp C är dominerande.

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.

Antimicrobial drugs are a common resource used to treat bacterial pathogens in both afflicted livestock and humans.

Multi-drug antimicrobial resistance (AMR) isolates have been detected from the poultry sector but little is known about the true extent and dissemination of this problem, especially in North Africa. Therefore, this consortium of Swedish and Egyptian partners proposes to develop new and optimize the already-existing tools to detect and characterize AMR in multiple reservoirs. We aim at establishing an international collaboration with a One Health group of clinical, veterinary, and microbiology experts to build a network where methods, techniques and knowledge can be developed and disseminated. Ultimately, we will produce an AMR dataset with phenotypic and genomic data to help in the establishment of future research Middle-East AMR projects to aid in the global surveillance and reduction of antimicrobial resistance.

It plays a crucial role for food security in Ethiopia. In Ethiopia, sorghum production is adversely affected by the widely distributed anthracnose disease caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum sublineolum. Reducing the effects of this pathogen will improve livelihood of smallholder famers and strengthen food security in the country. Plant host resistance is an effective and sustainable method to protect sorghum from anthracnose. However, the breeding efforts to develop sorghum cultivars resistant to anthracnose is hampered by the poor understanding of the sorghum-anthracnose interactions, and lack of known major resistance (R-) genes. Here, we propose to apply the state-of-the-art resistance gene sequence capture method (RenSeq) coupled with single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing, emerging molecular biology, metabolomics and biotechnology techniques for improving sorghum resistance. We will screen sorghum genotypes for resistance to anthracnose and understand the molecular basis of resistance against this disease, as well as identify and perform functional analysis of novel R-genes. Apart from an improved understanding about resistance mechanisms against anthracnose in sorghum, it will help develop genomic tools for marker assisted breeding; thus, advancing the knowledge and increasing sorghum production in Ethiopia, and other sub-Saharan countries. Durra är en av de viktigaste matgrödorna i många utvecklingsländer, särskilt i sub-Sahariska Afrika. I Etiopien, ett låg-inkomstland med problem med matförsörjningen, intar durra en särskilt viktig roll i livsmedelsförsörjningen tack vare dess förmåga att växa i halvtorrt jordar. Den är viktig för inkomsten för miljontals småbrukare. Durrans tolerans mot torka gör att den är väl rustad för framtida klimatförändringar och kommer kunna fortsätta spela en avgörande roll i livsmedelssäkerheten. Trots dess betydande roll för livsmedelssäkerhet, hindrar tyvärr växtskadegörare durraproduktionen. Antraknos, som orsakats av en vanligt förekommande och aggressiva svamppatogenen Colletotrichum sublineolum, har utpekats som en av de viktigaste sjukdomarna som påverkar durraproduktionen i Etiopien. Upp till 67 % avkastningsförlust på grund av antraknos har rapporterats. Förbättrad värdresistans mot antraknos hos durra-sorter och en bättre förståelse av resistansmekanismerna är nu i fokus hos forskarna för att upprätthålla en hållbar durraproduktion. Att identifiera durragenotyper med resistens är ett avgörande steg mot att förbättra värdmotståndet i grödan. Identifierandet av resistans (R-) gener i arvsmassan och införlivande av denna resistens i utvalda sorter anses vara det mest lovande sättet att förbättra värdmotståndet i grödor. I Etiopien, är den naturliga genetiska mångfalden hos durra är lyckligtvis hög, och naturlig variation är den rikaste källan till sjukdomsresistens. I detta projekt, som är ett samarbete mellan Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet, Addis Ababa University och Mekelle Uiversity (Ethiopia), och University of Copenhagen (Denmark) för att identifiera R-generna kommer vi att använda en avancerad sekvenseringteknik för resistensgensberiknings kallad RenSeq. Parallellt vill vi dessutom testa och utveckla molekylärbiologi och metabolitanalys för att förstå resistensmekanismerna i durra. Dessutom vill vi utföra en funktionell analys av identifierade R-gener. Resultaten kommer att underlätta screening av befintliga durrasorter i Etiopienför resistens mot antraknos och ytterligare införlivande av nya R-gener i förädlingsprogram för durraresistens. Detta projekt fördjupar kunskapen om viktiga resistensmekanismer och faktorer för framtida produktion av durra. Resultaten kommer att bidra till att förbättra vår förståelse av molekylära mekanismer för resistens mot antraknos i durra och att utveckla genomiska verktyg för markördriven förädling samt, allra viktigast, stärka livsmedelsförsörjningen i Etiopien.

It plays a crucial role for food security in Ethiopia. In Ethiopia, sorghum production is adversely affected by the widely distributed anthracnose disease caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum sublineolum. Reducing the effects of this pathogen will improve livelihood of smallholder famers and strengthen food security in the country. Plant host resistance is an effective and sustainable method to protect sorghum from anthracnose. However, the breeding efforts to develop sorghum cultivars resistant to anthracnose is hampered by the poor understanding of the sorghum-anthracnose interactions, and lack of known major resistance (R-) genes. Here, we propose to apply the state-of-the-art resistance gene sequence capture method (RenSeq) coupled with single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing, emerging molecular biology, metabolomics and biotechnology techniques for improving sorghum resistance. We will screen sorghum genotypes for resistance to anthracnose and understand the molecular basis of resistance against this disease, as well as identify and perform functional analysis of novel R-genes. Apart from an improved understanding about resistance mechanisms against anthracnose in sorghum, it will help develop genomic tools for marker assisted breeding; thus, advancing the knowledge and increasing sorghum production in Ethiopia, and other sub-Saharan countries. Durra är en av de viktigaste matgrödorna i många utvecklingsländer, särskilt i sub-Sahariska Afrika. I Etiopien, ett låg-inkomstland med problem med matförsörjningen, intar durra en särskilt viktig roll i livsmedelsförsörjningen tack vare dess förmåga att växa i halvtorrt jordar. Den är viktig för inkomsten för miljontals småbrukare. Durrans tolerans mot torka gör att den är väl rustad för framtida klimatförändringar och kommer kunna fortsätta spela en avgörande roll i livsmedelssäkerheten. Trots dess betydande roll för livsmedelssäkerhet, hindrar tyvärr växtskadegörare durraproduktionen.

Women in Angola generally have poorer living conditions compared to men. Child mortality and maternal mortality are high, and the country is one of the world´s most unequal and least developed. Possible reasons are the civil war, political repression and adverse gender norms.The research objective is to identify and describe what constitutes a health and human rights enabling social environment for young women in Angola. Specific aims are to analyse governance of the health system; assess health needs of young women and to what extent these are met; and to identify the role of social cohesion and health literacy for young women´s ability to control, influence and participate in the creation of health promotive lifestyles.This three-year mixed-method study (policy analysis, survey and interviews) is structured into three sub-studies focusing on: inter/national institutions and stakeholders; regional health service providers; young women and community networks. The first sub-study will prepare for the second, the third primarily summarize, yet the knowledge from all three will feed into each other (time plan in GANTT Chart). We will contribute with evidence for the development of inclusive social policies and interventions to promote health among young women, and so addressing the vicious cycle of poverty and health in a context of weak social safety nets. Det övergripande syftet med det här projektet är att stärka unga angolanska kvinnors hälsa och mänskliga rättigheter. Projektet kommer att bidra med kunskapsunderlag som kan stötta myndigheter och olika organisationer för utveckling av riktlinjer och program som riktas till unga kvinnor. Forskning om Angola är mycket begränsad, men de få studier som har genomförts visar att kvinnor har lägre utbildning och inkomster, och sämre hälsa inom nästan alla områden jämfört med män. Barnadödligheten liksom mödradödligheten är bland de högsta i världen och Angola är därför, av FN och Världsbanken, rankat som ett av världens mest ojämlika länder.Landet räknas som en världens minst utvecklade länder, fastän det är rikt på naturresurser. En anledning är det brutala inbördeskriget (1975-2002) under vilket landet täcktes av minor, den bördiga landsbygden avfolkades och större delen av sjukhus, skolor och vägar förstördes. Korruptionen är omfattande och det politiska förtrycket har lett till bristande tillit. Många internflyktingar bor i kåkstäder i provinsernas centralorter, utan kontakt med släktingar och med små möjligheter till försörjning.  I detta sammanhang är unga kvinnor särskilt utsatta och vi vill därför genomföra en studie som undersöker hur olika samhälleliga villkor påverkar deras hälsa och mänskliga rättigheter. Vi utgår ifrån det ramverk som WHO har formulerat för att studera sociala faktorers påverkan på hälsa och vi fokuserar på tre samhälleliga nivåer: nationella prioriteringar, regionala institutioners prestation; sociala sammanhang och unga kvinnors förståelse av och agerande för sin hälsa. Projektet formuleras i förhållande till vedertagna modeller och dess övergripande målsättning är att identifiera och beskriva hur ett socialt sammanhang som främjar unga kvinnors hälsa och mänskliga rättigheter kan se ut i den angolanska kontexten. Projektets specifika syften är att:kartlägga och analysera hälsoinstitutioners karaktär och styrningundersöka psykiska och sexuella/reproduktiva hälsobehov hos unga kvinnor samt hur dessa mötsstudera betydelsen av social sammanhållning och hälsolitteracitet för unga kvinnors möjlighet att främja sin hälsaFör att möta dessa syften använder vi olika forskningsmetoder i tre delstudier. Den första riktas mot myndigheter och inter/nationella organisationer och vi studerar då olika dokument, riktlinjer och program för att förstå vad dessa fångar eller förbiser. Vi gör också intervjuer med representanter för olika organisationer som arbetar med hälsofrågor och med ansvariga inom hälsoinriktade verksamheter i tre provinser. Fokus är på hur tillgängliga resurser används samt hur det relaterar till unga kvinnors behov. I den andra delstudien genomför vi en enkätstudie med drygt 1800 unga kvinnor i samma provinser. Där samlar vi information om deras hälsolitteracitet, deras behov av och tillgång till hälsoinsatser och om deras syn på social sammanhållning. I den tredje delstudien intervjuar vi unga kvinnor för att förstå det sammanhang där deras hälsa, levnadsvanor, hälsolitteracitet osv skapas. Vi kan därmed sammantaget skapa en fördjupad förståelse för hur och om unga kvinnors livssituation och hälsorisker hänger ihop med social utsatthet och samhällsstrukturer. Projektet är därmed ett exempel på hur individens hälsa är kopplat till den sociala och politiska miljön, dvs hur olika sociala strukturer och institutioner samverkar med, driver eller lindrar risker för hälsa och social utsatthet.Resultaten kommer att kunna användas för att vägleda utveckling av riktlinjer och program för att stärka unga kvinnors hälsa och mänskliga rättigheter, i resurssvaga och konfliktdrabbade områden. För att säkerställa att forskningen möter landets prioriteringar och kommer till nytta är vi ett team med svenska och angolanska forskare, som har erfarenhet ifrån forskning, arbete med myndigheter och med unga kvinnor.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. Många aktiviteter i designprocessen stöds av användning av externa medier såsom skisser, diagram och fysiska modeller tillverkade av trä, lera eller något annat material. Fördjupad vetenskaplig kunskap om designprocesser behövs för att utveckla en mängd grundläggande designkunskap och för att förbättra designpraktiken.Flera forskare hävdar att generering av grundläggande designkunskap kräver undersökning av designprocesser i olika kontextuella sammanhang. Dock är befintlig designforskning främst inriktad på individer och företag i utvecklade länder, vilket begränsar vår förmåga att främja utvecklingen av modeller och teorier om hur människor designar produkter. För att ta itu med dessa grundläggande luckor i designkunskap krävs designforskning inom en rad olika områden, inklusive bland annat mikroorganisationer i den informella sektorn, som skiljer sig klart från företag i utvecklade länder.Under de senaste tre decennierna har forskare från flera områden som antropologi, ekonomi, sociologi etc. undersökt den informella sektorn.

Mikroföretag inom metallbearbetning, som är involverade i tillverkningen av produkter, utgör en stor del av den informella sektorn. Medan dessa mikroföretag står inför olika begränsningar och arbetar i en resursbegränsad miljö, har de förmåga att designa nya produkter eller att utforma befintliga produkter igen.Trots att vi accepterar och erkänner förekomsten av produktdesignförmåga i informella mikroföretag finns det inga studier som undersöker deras produktdesignprocess.

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.

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.

Enzymes with unique properties (i.e. ability to act at low pH and at high temperature) will be targeted.

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.

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. Det kan finnas flera förklaringar till det. Exempelvis var de flesta skadade männen i kohorten yngre, starkare och mer aktiva under det att kvinnorna var äldre, mer överviktiga och mindre rörliga. Konsekvenserna av en ofullständig rehabilitering kan bli livsavgörande och har betydelse för patienternas möjlighet att återvända till självförsörjning liksom deras psykosociala välbefinnande.

This will be done by providing new data on spread and diversity of antimicrobial resistant Campylobacter strains. Drivers to mitigate disease and reduce antimicrobial usage will also be generated which will facilitate future initiatives for coordinated actions to reduce spread of AMR. In LIC poultry production is important for livelihood and for food and nutrition security. Campylobacteriosis is one of the major bacterial public health risks globally and poultry meat is the most important route of transmission. In addition, AMR in Campylobacter is a growing concern. The project will be conducted among informal smallholder urban poultry and large scale commercial, and at food markets in Kampala, Uganda. Data will be generated on antibiotic usage on farm level, and farmers and food handlers’ knowledge, attitudes and practices related to spread and mitigation of AMR Campylobacter. The project contextualizes challenges with urban livestock production, AMR and antibiotic usage, and pathogenic zoonotic bacteria. It focuses on knowledge gaps related to spread of zoonotic bacteria resistant to antimicrobials at certain points in the poultry value chain. Generated results will likely be valid in other East African countries, as few studies have been published on AMR and Campylobacter in this region. Trots det senaste decenniets ekonomiska tillväxt, som har möjliggjort att miljoner fattiga människor har fått det bättre, utgör ändå tillgång på livsmedel och viktiga näringsämnen stora utmaningar i stora delar av världen. Ytterligare en global utmaning är spridning av antibiotikaresistens. Inom djurproduktionen används antibiotika för att behandla sjuka djur, men även i förebyggande och tillväxtbefrämjande syfte. I många låginkomstländer sker en betydande produktion av kött, mjölk och ägg i städer. Stadsnära djurhållning innebär stora utmaningar vad gäller spridande av antibiotikaresistens och zoonotiska sjukdomar, bland annat eftersom djuren hålls tätt tillsammans med människor och det är lätt att köpa antibiotika till djur på lokala apotek.Projektet syftar till att minska spridning av antibiotikaresistenta bakterier mellan djur och människa (så kallade zoonoser) inom djurhållning i stadsnära områden i låginkomstländer. Ytterligare ett syfte är att minska spridning av livsmedelsburna campylobacter-bakterier. Denna kombination gör projektet relevant både avseende folkhälsa, tillgång på livsmedel och generering av inkomst för fattiga familjer. Den stadsnära och ofta småskaliga kycklingproduktionen är viktig i många låginkomstländer eftersom kyckling är ett relativt billigt animaliskt livsmedel som innehåller högvärdiga proteiner. Kycklingproduktion och försäljning av kycklingprodukter är av tradition dessutom ofta kvinnans ansvar och bidrar till familjens försörjning och mat.I projektet kommer ny kunskap om hur mycket antibiotika som används inom den småskaliga och den mer storskaliga kommersiella kycklingproduktionen tas fram. Vi kommer även klargöra vilka drivkrafter som finns avseende att förhindra spridning av zoonotiska infektioner inom djurproduktion och försäljning på lokala matmarknader tas fram. Förutom detta kommer även ny kunskap om vilka olika undertyper av Campylobacter-bakterier som förekommer på kycklingprodukterna och hur olika antibiotikaresistenta Campylobacer-stammarna är besläktade genereras. Sådan kunskap är nödvändig för att kartlägga smittvägar och smittrisker, och därmed få ökad kunskap om hur campylobacterios smittar och kan förhindras.Campylobacterios utgör en betydande folkhälsorisk på global nivå, speciellt hos små barn. Klassiska symptom på sjukdomen är diarré, feber, magsmärtor. Campylobacter bakterien finns oftast hos fjäderfä, såsom kyckling och dessa utgör smittkälla i mer än 50 % av fallen av livsmedelsburen campylobacterios. Eftersom djur inte utvecklar några symptom på Campylobacter infektion kan man inte se om de är bärare av bakterien. Det finns mycket lite information kring antibiotikaresistenta Campylobacter i Östafrika, inklusive Uganda, trots att det bedöms vara en viktigt för folkhälsan (både sjukdomen campylobacterios i sig själv och antibiotikaresistens). En viktig komponent i projektet är huruvida de insamlade Campylobacter-bakterierna är resistenta för en eller flera olika antibiotika sorter som används för att behandla sjukdomar hos människor. För närvarande finns det begränsad information om förekomst av antibiotikaresistenta bakterier i animalieprodukter i Uganda och i närregionen. Projektet fokuserar på Uganda, men resultaten förväntas även gälla i andra länder i Östafrika.Projektet knyter främst an till det andra globala utvecklingsmålen om att avskaffa hunger, uppnå tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning och ett hållbart jordbruk. Nyckelkomponenter i detta är att bekämpa antibiotikaresistens, att producerar säker mat samtidigt som fattiga människor kan öka sin inkomst. På sikt kommer projektet generera ökad medvetenhet om antibiotikaresistenta campylobacter och kan komma att bidra till policy för att bekämpa antibiotikaresistens och livsmedelsburna sjukdomar i stadsnära djurproduktion i låginkomstländer.

Eftersom djur inte utvecklar några symptom på Campylobacter infektion kan man inte se om de är bärare av bakterien. Det finns mycket lite information kring antibiotikaresistenta Campylobacter i Östafrika, inklusive Uganda, trots att det bedöms vara en viktigt för folkhälsan (både sjukdomen campylobacterios i sig själv och antibiotikaresistens). En viktig komponent i projektet är huruvida de insamlade Campylobacter-bakterierna är resistenta för en eller flera olika antibiotika sorter som används för att behandla sjukdomar hos människor. För närvarande finns det begränsad information om förekomst av antibiotikaresistenta bakterier i animalieprodukter i Uganda och i närregionen. Projektet fokuserar på Uganda, men resultaten förväntas även gälla i andra länder i Östafrika.Projektet knyter främst an till det andra globala utvecklingsmålen om att avskaffa hunger, uppnå tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning och ett hållbart jordbruk. Nyckelkomponenter i detta är att bekämpa antibiotikaresistens, att producerar säker mat samtidigt som fattiga människor kan öka sin inkomst. På sikt kommer projektet generera ökad medvetenhet om antibiotikaresistenta campylobacter och kan komma att bidra till policy för att bekämpa antibiotikaresistens och livsmedelsburna sjukdomar i stadsnära djurproduktion i låginkomstländer.

Innovations in CHS have the potential to improve access to health and health care but also have to address the underlying problems in this system – such as fragmented management and delivery, poor integration with local health facilities, and weak community participation. 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. The network partners comprise of: the School of Public Health at the University of Zambia, the School of Public Health and Social Sciences, MUHAS, Tanzania, Makerere University School of Public Health, Uganda, the School of Public Health at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa and Dep of Epidemiology and Global Health, Umeå University, Sweden. 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 bygger nu vidare på dessa två nätverk för att tillsammans med skolorna för folkhälsa vid Makerere universitet, Uganda och Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Science (MUHAS), Tanzania  bilda en ny konstellation av institutioner som drivs av ett gemensamt intresse av forskning för att vägleda samhällsbaserade hälsosystem tillsammans med praktiker och beslutsfattareSyftet med det föreslagna närverket, CHS-Connect, är att öka forskningskapaciteten och kompetensen för att utforma och bedriva ”inbäddad” hälso- politik och systemforskning för att bygga inkluderande, socialt ansvarsfulla och flexibla samhällsbaserade hälsosystem (CHS).Nätverket har två övergripande mål:Att skapa möjligheter för konceptutveckling av forskning rörande samhällsbaserade hälsosystem ur ett tvärvetenskapligt perspektiv.Att bygga en bas för framtida forskningssamarbeten som leder till nya forskningsidéer och större samarbetsprojekt.Varje institution kommer att samla en ”kärngrupp” bestående av seniora och juniora forskare samt praktiker och beslutsfattare. 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. Mellan dessa möten kommer kärngrupperna i varje land arbeta fram forskningsprioriteringar som bygger vidare på befintliga initiativ och utnyttja sina bredare lokala nätverk. Det kommer finnas tillfälle för mindre komparativa fallstudier. De internationella mötena kommer att fokusera på erfarenhetsutbyte, konceptuellt utvecklingsarbete och utvecklande av forskningsidéer och projektansökningar.

The network partners comprise of: the School of Public Health at the University of Zambia, the School of Public Health and Social Sciences, MUHAS, Tanzania, Makerere University School of Public Health, Uganda, the School of Public Health at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa and Dep of Epidemiology and Global Health, Umeå University, Sweden. 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 bygger nu vidare på dessa två nätverk för att tillsammans med skolorna för folkhälsa vid Makerere universitet, Uganda och Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Science (MUHAS), Tanzania  bilda en ny konstellation av institutioner som drivs av ett gemensamt intresse av forskning för att vägleda samhällsbaserade hälsosystem tillsammans med praktiker och beslutsfattareSyftet med det föreslagna närverket, CHS-Connect, är att öka forskningskapaciteten och kompetensen för att utforma och bedriva ”inbäddad” hälso- politik och systemforskning för att bygga inkluderande, socialt ansvarsfulla och flexibla samhällsbaserade hälsosystem (CHS).Nätverket har två övergripande mål:Att skapa möjligheter för konceptutveckling av forskning rörande samhällsbaserade hälsosystem ur ett tvärvetenskapligt perspektiv.Att bygga en bas för framtida forskningssamarbeten som leder till nya forskningsidéer och större samarbetsprojekt.Varje institution kommer att samla en ”kärngrupp” bestående av seniora och juniora forskare samt praktiker och beslutsfattare. 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. Mellan dessa möten kommer kärngrupperna i varje land arbeta fram forskningsprioriteringar som bygger vidare på befintliga initiativ och utnyttja sina bredare lokala nätverk. Det kommer finnas tillfälle för mindre komparativa fallstudier. De internationella mötena kommer att fokusera på erfarenhetsutbyte, konceptuellt utvecklingsarbete och utvecklande av forskningsidéer och projektansökningar.

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.

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. Vi kommer också genomföra en så kallad pilotstudie med syftet att skapa förutsättningar för planeringen av en större studie.Vår förhoppning är att forskningen i slutändan ska leda till att vi antingen visar att ATLS och/eller PTC minskar dödlighet och sjuklighet hos traumapatienter, eller att de inte gör det. 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. Om de inte har effekt bör man sluta lägga tid och pengar på att använda dem, och istället hitta nya sätt att utbilda läkare som tar hand om traumapatienter.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It will do so through analyzing testimonies of Yazidi women and girls who were abducted by ISIS in northern Iraq in 2014. Our aims are to: 1) collect, map and analyse Yazidi women’s testimonies about war, 2) analyse the role of individual agency in producing knowledge regarding the gendered nature of war, 3) trace how  testimonies feed into the global knowledge of the gendered nature of war and how this knowledge is circulated, 4) theoretically advance the concept of narrative agency,  5) make a concrete contribution to policy-making and practice by developing an digital,  ethical toolbox with methodological strategies to assist and safeguard women witnesses.We will construct an archive of empirical material based on published testimonies and transcripts from extended focus groups and partial life-narrative interviews. The archive will be the basis for our narrative analysis. In the first year we will develop a conceptual framework and collect published material. In the second year we will conduct empirical fieldwork and write up results in articles. In the third year we will write up results in a monograph and produce the ethical toolbox.The project will provide new insights into the gender dimensions of knowledge production about war, which is important in order to open new avenues towards the construction of a gender-just peace. Det har sagts att vi lever i vittnesmålets era. Vittnen som berättar om övergrepp och i domstolar och sanningskommissioner har blivit en ovärderlig aspekt av våra försök att skipa rättvisa och bygga fred. Vi ser också hur media använder sig av de personliga erfarenheter och berättelser för att förmedla berättelser, och påverkansorganisationer vädjar ofta till vårt samvete genom enskilda livsöden. I takt med att kvinnors erfarenheter av krig har väckt intresse så har kvinnors vittnesmål fått ett allt större utrymme. Vår forskning undersöker vilken roll kvinnors vittnesmål spelar för hur kunskap om krig formas. Vi är intresserade av vad det är kvinnor väljer att berätta om sina erfarenheter, och vad deras syften är, hur de historier de berättar om sina egna personliga erfarenheter blir del av en global berättelse om krig. Hur skapas globala berättelser om krig, och hur påverkar dessa makroberättelser hur vi hanterar krig och bygger fred?  Finns det risk för att kvinnor som lämnar vittnesmål utnyttjas och förlorar makten över sin egen berättelse? Och hur kan kvinnor som lämnar vittnesmål stödjas på bästa sätt?Dessa frågor söker vi svar på genom en empirisk undersökning av just en av de svåraste konflikterna i vår tid: IS välde i Iraq och Syrien och specifikt det våld de utövade mot de tusentals yazidiska kvinnor och flickor som fördes bort, hölls i fångenskap, våldtogs och torterades. Hittills vet vi inte mycket om deras upplevelser. Vi söker fylla denna kunskapslucka genom att samla in deras vittnesmål, och kartlägga vad de vill förmedla och varför. Denna analys kommer bidra med en viktig pusselbit till vår kunskap om denna konflikt och i förlängningen hur fredsarbetet ska utformas för att öka kvinnors rättigheter. Det är en pusselbit som kommer läggas till vår tidigare forskning, där vi undersökt fredsprocesserna i Bosnien-Hercegovina och Rwanda utifrån ett genusperspektiv.Vi undersöker även vilka berättelser om yazidiska kvinnors krigserfarenheter som cirkulerar globalt. Genom att läsa och analysera självbiografier, dokumentärfilmer, intervjuer på webbplatser och liknande analyser vi vad det är för berättelser som väcker gehör och som används för att väcka uppmärksamhet och samla in pengar. Vi intervjuar journalister, filmskapare, biståndsorganisationer och andra aktörer, för att spåra processen genom vilken kunskap om en specifik konflikt skapas med hjälp av personliga berättelser. Vi ställer oss frågan vilken makt de individuella kvinnorna har över sitt eget narrativ och vi analyserar vilken bild av kvinnors erfarenheter generellt som möjliggörs av dessa berättelser. Vi ställer kritiska frågor kring vilka berättelser som är ’intressanta’ och vilka som osynliggörs. Hur skapas det ’perfekta offret’? Vilka upplevelser anses inte intressanta?Teoretiskt frågar vi oss hur länken mellan den personliga berättelsen och makronarrativet ser ut och söker utveckla konceptet narrativ agens för att öka förståelsen av hur kvinnors vittnesmål produceras och cirkulerar. Vi menar att ökad kunskap om kvinnors vittnesmål bidrar till att öka möjligheterna att skapa en jämställd fred. Att öka jämställdhet är av central betydelse för att minska risken för att konflikter inte återuppstår. Vi vet dessutom att krig är en av de största orsakerna till fattigdom och därmed bidrar vår forskning till ett övergripande mål om att minska fattigdomen i världen och bidra till hållbar utveckling.Avslutningsvis har projektet en praktisk komponent. Utifrån de insikter som projektet genererar ska vi utveckla en ’etisk verktygslåda’ för insamlandet av vittnesmål. Den ska utvecklas i dialog med yazidiska och andra kvinnorättsorganisationer i ett antal konfliktdrabbade länder. Den kommer innehålla handfasta råd till forskare, journalister, biståndsaktörer, aktivister och andra som använder sig av vittnesmål, och publiceras i form av en webbplats med bilder och annat relevant material.

It will do so through analyzing testimonies of Yazidi women and girls who were abducted by ISIS in northern Iraq in 2014. Our aims are to: 1) collect, map and analyse Yazidi women’s testimonies about war, 2) analyse the role of individual agency in producing knowledge regarding the gendered nature of war, 3) trace how  testimonies feed into the global knowledge of the gendered nature of war and how this knowledge is circulated, 4) theoretically advance the concept of narrative agency,  5) make a concrete contribution to policy-making and practice by developing an digital,  ethical toolbox with methodological strategies to assist and safeguard women witnesses.We will construct an archive of empirical material based on published testimonies and transcripts from extended focus groups and partial life-narrative interviews. The archive will be the basis for our narrative analysis. In the first year we will develop a conceptual framework and collect published material. In the second year we will conduct empirical fieldwork and write up results in articles. In the third year we will write up results in a monograph and produce the ethical toolbox.The project will provide new insights into the gender dimensions of knowledge production about war, which is important in order to open new avenues towards the construction of a gender-just peace. Det har sagts att vi lever i vittnesmålets era. Vittnen som berättar om övergrepp och i domstolar och sanningskommissioner har blivit en ovärderlig aspekt av våra försök att skipa rättvisa och bygga fred. Vi ser också hur media använder sig av de personliga erfarenheter och berättelser för att förmedla berättelser, och påverkansorganisationer vädjar ofta till vårt samvete genom enskilda livsöden.

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. Det aktuella samarbetet baseras på det somaliska sammanhanget och de nuvarande utmaningarna relaterade till barnmorskeforskning.  Den framtida forskningen som grundar sig på detta initiativ kommer att bidra till att utveckla god kvalitet av barnmorskvård i postkonflikt Somaliland och bidra ill minskad mödra och neonatal sjuklighet och dödlighet.  Förslaget är helt i linje med strategin för Sveriges internationella utvecklingssamarbete med Somalia 2018-2022 och den nya Somaliska Barnmorskestrategin.

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. Studiens huvudsakliga syfte är att undersöka två väldokumenterade och förment “framgångsrika” fall av fredsbyggande - Mocambique och Kambodja – med särskilt fokus på att identifiera svagheter och sårbarheter i hur den så kallade liberala freden har implementerats i dessa fall. Studien bidrar huvudsakligen till den samtida intellektuella strömning som betonar att fredsbyggandepolicy ska vara kontextkänslig, människoorienterad och inkluderande. Studien analyserar också tidigare (misslyckade) erfarenheter av fredsbyggande, och söker ta fram konkreta lärdomar från dessa. Genom detta tillvägagångssätt undersöker vi fredsbyggande via dess historiska utveckling fram till den nuvarande situationen. Vår primära forskningsfråga lyder som följer: Vad – sett i ljuset av fredsbyggandets långa historia – har inte fungerat, och varför, i Kambodja och Mocambique? Då de två fallen har många gemensamma nämnare passar de utmärkt för att analysera i en jämförande studie. I denna söker vi primärt redogöra för ursprunget till de spänningar som vi ser i de båda fallens samtid, och som vi anser utgör ett hot mot deras framtida fred och stabilitet. Våra specifika under-forskningsfrågor är hämtade från den teoretiska litteraturen, och de fokuserar i tur och ordning på fredsbyggandets långtidsdilemma; in/exkluderingens dynamik; vikten av att förankra fredsprocesser i lokalsamhällen, och slutligen: möjligheterna för en anpassningsbar fredsbyggandeprocess.

The core-shell junction would enhance charge separation, thus improving overall water splitting efficiency. With a bandgap of 2.0 eV, Cu 2 O could theoretically deliver a solar to hydrogen conversion efficiency of 18%. Also, semiconductor metal oxides (WO 3 , Co 3 O 4 and BiVO 4 ) will be tuned in core / shell nanostructured pn junction for solar water splitting.The Egyptian and Swedish teams will collaborate to make this joint project beneficial for both sides. Both teams will do their best to manage, exchange ideas, and transfer the technology to each other. This program will add a new avenue for such scientific collaboration between Sweden and Egypt in the field of growth, characterizations of metal oxides and their solar energy application.This project would create environmentally friendly and sustainable chemical energy fuels by solar-powered water splitting process. It will address the more and more serious environmental problems of greenhouse gas CO 2 emissions, therefore mitigating climate change. För närvarande är en av de största utmaningarna att möta energibehovet för en ständigt växande världsbefolkning. Detta projekt är en samverkande forskningsaktivitet för två institutioner [Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi (IFM), Linköpings universitet (LiU), Sverige och avdelningen för fast tillståndsfysik, National Research Center (NRC), Egypten] och syftar till att utveckla förnybara och hållbara energiresurser på grund av den begränsade utbudet av fossila bränslen.Väte anses vara det mest lovande alternativet till fossila bränslen för framtiden. Vattendelning under solbelysning anses vara ett miljövänligt och lovande sätt att effektivt konvertera solenergi till kemisk energi och generera väte, eftersom produktionsprocessen är enkel, praktisk och kostnadseffektiv.Omfattande studier har gjorts för att öka solenergispridningens prestanda och långsiktiga stabilitet i solvattensystemen. En kärnskalstruktur är en ny strategi för att uppnå förbättrad omvandling av sol till väte.

In this work, we demonstrated a simple and industrially scalable method to synthesize low-cost, efficient, and noble metal-free oxide materials for green hydrogen production. No indicator available - only a description of the activity results is published SE-0-SE-29-2020-04400-1 Sweden This project aims to establish a collaborative research activity of two institutions [ Department of Physics, Chemistry and Biology, Linköping University Sweden and Solid State Physics Department, National Research Center, Egypt ] and is aimed at developing the renewable hydrogen energy through solar-powered water splitting.This project will focus on exploring a Cu 2 O / TiO 2 core-shell nanowire structure to form a pn junction for solar water splitting. The core-shell junction would enhance charge separation, thus improving overall water splitting efficiency. With a bandgap of 2.0 eV, Cu 2 O could theoretically deliver a solar to hydrogen conversion efficiency of 18%. Also, semiconductor metal oxides (WO 3 , Co 3 O 4 and BiVO 4 ) will be tuned in core / shell nanostructured pn junction for solar water splitting.The Egyptian and Swedish teams will collaborate to make this joint project beneficial for both sides. Both teams will do their best to manage, exchange ideas, and transfer the technology to each other. This program will add a new avenue for such scientific collaboration between Sweden and Egypt in the field of growth, characterizations of metal oxides and their solar energy application.This project would create environmentally friendly and sustainable chemical energy fuels by solar-powered water splitting process. It will address the more and more serious environmental problems of greenhouse gas CO 2 emissions, therefore mitigating climate change. För närvarande är en av de största utmaningarna att möta energibehovet för en ständigt växande världsbefolkning. Detta projekt är en samverkande forskningsaktivitet för två institutioner [Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi (IFM), Linköpings universitet (LiU), Sverige och avdelningen för fast tillståndsfysik, National Research Center (NRC), Egypten] och syftar till att utveckla förnybara och hållbara energiresurser på grund av den begränsade utbudet av fossila bränslen.Väte anses vara det mest lovande alternativet till fossila bränslen för framtiden. Vattendelning under solbelysning anses vara ett miljövänligt och lovande sätt att effektivt konvertera solenergi till kemisk energi och generera väte, eftersom produktionsprocessen är enkel, praktisk och kostnadseffektiv.Omfattande studier har gjorts för att öka solenergispridningens prestanda och långsiktiga stabilitet i solvattensystemen. En kärnskalstruktur är en ny strategi för att uppnå förbättrad omvandling av sol till väte.

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.

Sixteen male parents will be crossed with one female Mchare (tester). Twenty-five offspring from each family together with their parents will be planted in a field at IITA station – Arusha, Tanzania. These will be evaluated for performance according to the Mchare product profile traits. The data will be collected for two cycles using field book and sent directly to Musabase for storage and sharing. Selection index for each individual will be calculated. Average selection index, which is a proxy for the breeding value, will be determined for all the individuals in the same family. This will be used to rank male parents. The best linear unbiased predictions with Restricted Maximum Likelihood model will be used to calculate the variance components and genotypic values for each trait. Genotyping will be done using Diversity Array Technology, through Intertek at SLU campus in Alnarp for about 6 months, 30 months will be spent at IITA. The genomic estimated breeding value of each individual genotype will be determined using BayesB model and this will enable genomic selection. Bananer (även kallade dessertbananer) och matbananer är viktiga grödor för mat och ekonomi för miljoner av subsistensjordbrukare i utvecklingsländer. I Östafrika odlas i huvudsak två typer av matbananer; den östafrikanska höglandsbananen (EAHB-AAA) och ’Mchare’ banaer (AA). Dessa två typer av matbananer kan gemensamt kallas för östafrikanska matbananer (EACBs). Dessertbananer (Gros-Michel och Cavendish) delar samma AA genom som ’Mchare’, och därför kan framsteg i forskning på ’Mchare’ även gynna dessertbananer. Östafrikanska matbananer är basföda för över 13 miljoner människor i områdena kring Afrikas stora sjöar vilket inkluderar länder som Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi och den östra delen av den demokratiska republiken Kongo. ’Mchare’ frukten kokas ofta medan den är grön innan konsumtion. Trots att bananen är viktig i regionen, har produktionen av den minskat sedan 1970-talet. Sjukdomar och skadegörare är de huvudsakliga skälen till den minskade odlingen av bananer. De viktigaste skadegörarna för bananer är bananviveln och nematoder; och de viktigaste sjukdomarna är: fusarios eller panamasjukan, svampsjukdomen black sigatoka (black leaf streak) och bakteriell nedvissning (banana bacterial wilt). Den hållbara lösningen för ovan nämnda odlingsbegränsningar är förädling för resistens hos värdväxten. Korsförädling för förbättring av bananer är dock mycket långsam, då det tar cirka två decennier från korsning tills det att en ny sort kan marknadsföras. Ett av de svåraste åtagandena en förädlare har är att välja rätt föräldrar  att inkludera i sitt förädlingsprogram. Det främsta målet med forskningsprojektet är att bestämma förädlingsvärden för hanföräldrar som används som hanföräldrar för bananförädling på det internationella institutet för tropiskt jordbruk (IITA) i Tanzania. Syftet är att identifiera hanföräldrar med de högsta förädlingsvärdena och att använda dessa i korsningar med högre chanser att alstra ’Mchare’ hybrider med hög avkastning, resistens mot skadedjur och sjukdomar och som kan accepteras av jordbrukare. Sexton hanföräldrar kommer att korsas med en hon-’Mchare’ (tester). Tjugofem avkommor från varje familj kommer att tillsammans med sina föräldrar planteras på IITAs fältstationer, i Arusha, Tanzania.Dessa kommer att utvärderas för hur de presterar jämfört med egenskaper i ’Mchare’s profil. Data från projektet samlas in under två cykler med hjälp av en fälthandbok som skickas direkt till en databas (Musabase) för förvaring. Ett selektionsindex kommer att beräknas för varje individ. Ett medelselektionsindex bestäms för alla individer inom samma familj. Hanföräldrar kommer att rangordnas baserat på medelselektionsindexet för sina avkommor, vilket är en uppskattning av förädlingsvärdet. Den bästa linjära opartiska prediktorn (BLUE) med en begränsad maximal sannolikhetsmodell (REML) kommer att användas för att beräkna varianskomponenter och det genotypiska värdet för varje egenskap. DNA från avkommorna kommer att extraheras på laboratorium på Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet (SLU) i Alnarp och genotypdata samlas in genom en diversitets array teknologi (DArT). Genomiskt uppskattade förädlingsvärden (GEBV) för varje individs genotyp bestäms genom BayesB modellen vilket gör genomisk selektion möjlig. Allt fältarbete kommer att genomföras i Tanzania i omkring trettio månader, och det genomiska arbetet kommer att utföras i Sverige i cirka sex månader. Resultaten från detta projekt bidrar till att uppfylla målen för hållbar utveckling 1, 2 och 12 i Agenda 2030, som handlar om att få slut på fattigdom i alla former överallt, utrota hunger samt en ansvarsfull konsumtion och produktion. Detta är också i linje med Sveriges internationella utvecklingssamarbetesmål vilka vill bidra till skapandet av förutsättningar för bättre levnadsvillkor för människor som lever i fattigdom och förtryck.

Sixteen male parents will be crossed with one female Mchare (tester). Twenty-five offspring from each family together with their parents will be planted in a field at IITA station – Arusha, Tanzania. These will be evaluated for performance according to the Mchare product profile traits. The data will be collected for two cycles using field book and sent directly to Musabase for storage and sharing. Selection index for each individual will be calculated. Average selection index, which is a proxy for the breeding value, will be determined for all the individuals in the same family. This will be used to rank male parents. The best linear unbiased predictions with Restricted Maximum Likelihood model will be used to calculate the variance components and genotypic values for each trait. Genotyping will be done using Diversity Array Technology, through Intertek at SLU campus in Alnarp for about 6 months, 30 months will be spent at IITA. The genomic estimated breeding value of each individual genotype will be determined using BayesB model and this will enable genomic selection. Bananer (även kallade dessertbananer) och matbananer är viktiga grödor för mat och ekonomi för miljoner av subsistensjordbrukare i utvecklingsländer. I Östafrika odlas i huvudsak två typer av matbananer; den östafrikanska höglandsbananen (EAHB-AAA) och ’Mchare’ banaer (AA). Dessa två typer av matbananer kan gemensamt kallas för östafrikanska matbananer (EACBs). Dessertbananer (Gros-Michel och Cavendish) delar samma AA genom som ’Mchare’, och därför kan framsteg i forskning på ’Mchare’ även gynna dessertbananer. Östafrikanska matbananer är basföda för över 13 miljoner människor i områdena kring Afrikas stora sjöar vilket inkluderar länder som Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi och den östra delen av den demokratiska republiken Kongo. ’Mchare’ frukten kokas ofta medan den är grön innan konsumtion. Trots att bananen är viktig i regionen, har produktionen av den minskat sedan 1970-talet. Sjukdomar och skadegörare är de huvudsakliga skälen till den minskade odlingen av bananer. De viktigaste skadegörarna för bananer är bananviveln och nematoder; och de viktigaste sjukdomarna är: fusarios eller panamasjukan, svampsjukdomen black sigatoka (black leaf streak) och bakteriell nedvissning (banana bacterial wilt). Den hållbara lösningen för ovan nämnda odlingsbegränsningar är förädling för resistens hos värdväxten. Korsförädling för förbättring av bananer är dock mycket långsam, då det tar cirka två decennier från korsning tills det att en ny sort kan marknadsföras. Ett av de svåraste åtagandena en förädlare har är att välja rätt föräldrar  att inkludera i sitt förädlingsprogram. Det främsta målet med forskningsprojektet är att bestämma förädlingsvärden för hanföräldrar som används som hanföräldrar för bananförädling på det internationella institutet för tropiskt jordbruk (IITA) i Tanzania. Syftet är att identifiera hanföräldrar med de högsta förädlingsvärdena och att använda dessa i korsningar med högre chanser att alstra ’Mchare’ hybrider med hög avkastning, resistens mot skadedjur och sjukdomar och som kan accepteras av jordbrukare. Sexton hanföräldrar kommer att korsas med en hon-’Mchare’ (tester). Tjugofem avkommor från varje familj kommer att tillsammans med sina föräldrar planteras på IITAs fältstationer, i Arusha, Tanzania.Dessa kommer att utvärderas för hur de presterar jämfört med egenskaper i ’Mchare’s profil. Data från projektet samlas in under två cykler med hjälp av en fälthandbok som skickas direkt till en databas (Musabase) för förvaring. Ett selektionsindex kommer att beräknas för varje individ. Ett medelselektionsindex bestäms för alla individer inom samma familj. Hanföräldrar kommer att rangordnas baserat på medelselektionsindexet för sina avkommor, vilket är en uppskattning av förädlingsvärdet. Den bästa linjära opartiska prediktorn (BLUE) med en begränsad maximal sannolikhetsmodell (REML) kommer att användas för att beräkna varianskomponenter och det genotypiska värdet för varje egenskap.

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.

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.

Evidence is lacking on the feasibility, acceptability, use, effectiveness and health system impact of preconception anemia care in low-income settings despites being a beneficial strategy. Objectives: To establish and evaluate a pilot research on prevention of maternal anemia through preconception anemia care with the aim of reducing maternal and newborn mortality in low-income countries. Specifically, to determine the feasibility, acceptability, use, effectiveness and health system impact of preconception anemia care for young women in low-income settings.Methodology: After a baseline assessment the preconception anemia care will be set up with a minimum package for preconception care as health education and counsellinig. Quantitative and qualitative research methodologies will measue its effects; patient exit interviews, key informant interviews of health workers and leaders, in-depth interviews with patients and health workers, focus group discussions with women and clinical record abstraction.  The members of this network will participate in data collection, evaluation and dissemination. Bakgrund: Blodbrist (anemi) är en av de underliggande orsakerna till mödradödlighet i låginkomstländer. I Uganda har förekomsten av anemi stigit bland kvinnor i reproduktiv ålder från 23% år 2011 till 32% år 2016. I Sydafrika beräknas 40 % av mödradödsfallen vara relaterade till anemi. Dessutom, i Uganda, har majoriteten av unga flickorna som blir gravida näringsbrist inklusive brist på järn och folat eller båda. Som lösning har Världshälsoorganisationen rekommenderat anemi vård med tillskott av mikronäringsämnen som initieras minst 6 månader före eventuell graviditet. Det saknas emellertid fortfarande forskning om anemi preventions programs genomförbarhet, accepterande, användning, effektivitet och dess hälsoeffekter i låginkomstmiljöer, trots att det borde vara en fördelaktig strategi.

The aetiologic agent, chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is transmitted by mosquitos of the Aedesgenus and is prevalent in tropical regions. Although mortality is low (approximately 0.1%), the burden of disease in low- and middle-income countries is high: The virus is endemic in the majority of the countries on the DAC list of low-income countries. Currently, no vaccine or antiviral treatments are available. In this proposal we plan to explore two promising strategies to develop low-cost, scalable interventions to treat this disease. Our first aim is to use the combined expertise of the McInerney and Tomar groups to identify and develop compound(s) that target an essential and conserved alphavirus interaction with host molecules. Our research has identified an Achilles’ heel of the Old-World alphaviruses and our recent data suggests that targeting this complex is feasible and expected to be broadly anti-alphaviral. In a second approach, we propose to develop, screen and test, camelid-derived single domain antibody fragments against the CHIKV spike complex and test them in a virus replication inhibition assays in vitro and in a mouse model for alphavirus disease. Although both approaches are at the experimental stage, both represent potentially low cost and very scalable strategies to combat chikungunya fever in low income countries. 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 använda rationella strukturbaserade metoder för att utforma läkemedel som skulle hämna viral replikation genom att blockera viral proteininteraktion med värdcellproteinet G3BP. Vi förväntar oss att sådana läkemedel skulle verka för att blockera infektion med chikungunyavirus och de andra i alfavirusgruppen. De bäst fungerande molekyler kommer att användas som mallar för att designa förbättringar i en andra generation av molekyler.Alpackor har ett väldigt speciellt immunsystem där de har antikroppar som är mycket mindre än dom konventionella antikroppar som andra däggdjur har. De är snabbare att ta fram och enklare att jobba med. Och mest viktigt, eftersom de är så pass mindre, så kan de binda till olika strukturer på viruspartikeln och på detta sätt hindra viruset. Vi kommer ta fram en mängd olika alpackaantikroppar och testa de för förmågan att hindra chikungunya viruset för att komma in i cellen och föröka sig.En anti-alfaviralt läkemedel skulle vara en enorm fördel för global hälsa, särskilt i regioner med låginkomst. Vår forskning har gett oss en stor fördel i jakten på en specifik, potent och säker behandling.

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.

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.

UHC is defined as a situation where all people have access to the health services they need, when and where they need them, without financial hardship . In order to reduce the risk for people suffering financial hardship as a result of ill health, health financing systems need to fulfill the two functions of pre-payment and pooling of funds.  Zambia has recently launched a national health insurance scheme (NHIS) to enhance service provision and reduce catastrophic health payments. The inconclusive evidence of impact of social health insurance reforms as a means to improve financial protection, improving access to health care and increase health care utilization, in particular for the poor, illustrates the need to carefully evaluate large scale insurance reforms to ensure that desired effects are reached.The aim of this research project is to evaluate the impact of the NHIS and the process of implementation. The project will adopt a quasi-experimental research design and use a nationally representative household survey to evaluate the impact of the reform initiative on financial protection for reproductive and maternal health (RMH) service users and on the equitable utilization of RMH care. A process evaluation of implementing the NHIS will contribute to an understanding of the levels of enrollment, service utilization and financial protection. Zambia beslutade 2018 att hälso- och sjukvårdsystemet skulle reformeras genom införandet av en nationell hälso- och sjukvårdsförsäkring. Det finns starka argument för en allmän försäkring. Tidigare forskning har visat att kostnader för hälso- och sjukvård i Zambia är en viktig bidragande orsak till att många inte söker eller får den vård de behöver. Detta gäller särskilt fattiga och utsatta grupper och de som bor på landsbygden. Försäkringsreformen i Zambia genomförs som en del av en bredare ansats i att uppfylla det globala åtagandet kring universal health coverage (UHC – ung. allmän hälso och sjukvård). UHC innebär att alla ska ha rätt till den vård de behöver, när de behöver den, och att denna vård ges till en rimlig kostnad för att undvika att människor kastas in i fattigdom som en följd av sjukdom. En central del av reformen är tillgång till specialistmödravård. Komplikationer i samband med förlossningar är vanliga i Zambia och mödradödligheten är hög, 252 per 100,000 födslar (vilket kan jämföras med Sveriges omkring 4 dödsfall per 100,000 födslar). Förbättrad tillgång till mödrahälsovård är därför en viktig komponent för att minska mödradödligheten.Flera andra länder i regionen som befinner sig på en liknande inkomstnivå som Zambia har genomfört liknande hälsoförsäkringsreformer med varierande resultat. Eftersom evidensen för hur effektiva hälso- och sjukvårdsförsäkringar är från länder i regionen spretar är det viktigt att de utvärderas ordentligt. Vi föreslår därför ett forskningsprojekt som syftar till att utvärdera effekterna av hälsoförsäkringsreformen i Zambia. Mer specifikt kommer vi att studera hur försäkringen påverkar tillgången till mödrahälsovård samt om kostnaderna för den som söker vård blir lägre genom att vården finansieras gemensamt genom en försäkringslösning. Effekter kommer att mätas genom en survey-undersökning där intervjuer genomförs med försäkrade, respektive icke försäkrade hushåll i ett urval av distrikt i Zambia. Genom statistiska urvalstekniker kan vi generera resultat som går att generalisera på nationell nivå och därigenom ge en övergripande bild av effekterna. Utöver effektutvärderingen kommer vi också att genomföra en processutvärdering av genomförandet av försäkringsreformen. Processutvärdering utgör ett viktigt komplement till effektutvärderingen. Effektutvärderingen kommer att kunna visa på vilka skillnader mellan försäkrade och icke-försäkrade grupper vad gäller tillgång till vård och kostnader den vården, men kommer inte kunna ge förklaringar till resultaten. Processutvärderingen å andra sidan kommer att analysera själva genomförandet och därmed kunna bidra med förklaringsmodeller för de effekter, eller avsaknad av effekter, reformen har lett till. Denna breda ansats ger förutsättningar för en djup förståelse av försäkringsreformens effekter och utgör ett unikt bidrag till kunskapsunderlaget vad gäller hälso- och sjukvårdsförsäkringar i låg- och lägre medelinkomstländer.Projektet är ett samarbete mellan Lunds Universitet och University of Zambia. Det inkluderar också forskare från Dalarnas universitet, Karolinska Institutet och Uppsala Universitet. Sammantaget förväntas vår föreslagna forskning tillhandahålla evidens av relevans för den globala utvecklingsagendan. God hälsa är ett av de övergripande globala utvecklingsmålen (mål 3) i Agenda 2030. Att skapa bättre tillgång till god hälso- och sjukvård är också ett av de explicita undermålen (mål 3.8). God hälsa är också en förutsättning för att eliminera extrem fattigdom (mål 1). Ökad kunskap om hur försäkringslösningar inom hälso- och sjukvården kan bidra till bättre tillgång till hälso- och sjukvård på lika villkor är därför av brett intresse och relevans för utvecklingsforskning, utvecklingsbistånd och framtida nationella hälso- och sjukvårdsreformer i låg- och lägre medelinkomstländer.

Varje dag dör fler än 800 kvinnor i samband med graviditet och förlossning av orsaker som kan förebyggas. Dessutom dör ungefär 7 000 nyfödda barn varje dag; en tredjedel av dem dör på dagen de föds. Trots att många flera kvinnor föder barn på sjukhus nu jämfört med tidigare, så finns det starka indikationer på att låg vårdkvalitet är det största hindret för att rädda liv på landsbygden i låg- och medelinkomstländer (LMIC). Att förbättra vårdkvaliteten runt förlossningen har identifierats av Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) som den strategi med störst påverkan för att minska dödsfall av mödrar och nyfödda. WHO rekommenderar kvinnor att ha sällskap av en medföljare som de själva valt ut för att närvara vid förlossningen. Detta är en rekommendation som många kvinnor följer i Sverige men som inte är universell. En medföljare kan förbättra kvinnans upplevelse av förlossningen, att flera barn överlever och minskning av onödiga ingrepp under förlossningen inklusive kejsarsnitt. Att ha sällskap av en person ökar tillfredsställelsen med vården, och kan antas minska vanvård och felaktig behandling av kvinnor som föder på sjukhus.I många LMICs är det inte tillåtet för kvinnor att ha sällskap av en medföljande partner eller släktning till förlossningen. Policys, praktiska hinder som platsbrist och även traditioner är några av de kända anledningar till att många kvinnor föder utan en medföljare i länder där just majoriteten av dödsfall av mödrar och nyfödda inträffar och där det rapporteras om vanvård och felaktig behandling under barnafödandet. Det saknas kunskap om hur förlossningsvården kan ändras i kontexter där kvinnor föder utan en medföljare och där det är möjligt att följa kostnaden för en introduktion av att tillåta medföljare.

Om medföljarskap under förlossningen genomförs framgångsrikt kan detta leda till en förbättring av vårdkvaliteten under kvinnors förlossning.

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.

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.

We will identify important knowledge gaps and other constraints in IPM of fruit flies, and identify economically feasible, environmentally sound and sustainable IPM practices in fruit fly control.

The network not only benefits farmers but also improves efficacy, diminishes repetition and minimizes study costs that benefit the collaborating institutions. Till följd av klimatförändringar och invasion av främmande arter står många småskaliga odlare i subsahariska Afrika handfallna åt de skador som uppkommer. Dessa småskaliga odlare är nödvändiga då den stora majoriteten av odlad mat kommer från de gårdar de driver. Vidare är det inte sällan kvinnor som är de som driver dessa och här skapar inkomst och producerar mat åt sina familjer, en stärkt småskalig odling leder också till ökad jämlikhet. Tyvärr står många av dess odlare under starkt tryck av befintliga och invasiva borrflugor, som kan förstöra skördar av både frukt och grönt. Då i det i många fall saknas hållbara alternativ vänder sig dessa odlare mot pesticider, ofta organofosfater, som även slår ut nyttoinsekter. Vad som istället skulle behövas vore hållbara metoder som bygger på en tämja styrkan i de lokala ekosystemen. Utvecklandet av sådana metoder som tillsammans skapar tillräcklig kontroll av skadeinsekter kallas för integrerat växtskydd. I detta förslag ämnar vi föra samman forskare, var och en framstående inom sitt fält, som tillsammans kan skapa nya uppfinningar för hållbar kontroll av dessa problematiska insekter. På Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet har vi utvecklat metoder för att kartlägga vad en insekt känner för dofter, genom detta har vi utvecklat flera lockbeten för borrflugor som är lovande i labbförsök. Genom att tillsammans med ICIPE i Kenya tillämpa detta på parasitoider kan vi se vilka är de dofter som skall undvikas för att inte ta kål på nyttodjuren. I Kenya, så har man även en gedigen erfarenhet av vilka komponenter som behövs i utvecklandet av ett integrerat växtskydd. För att stärka inkomster hos de småskaliga odlare som är mest känsliga för klimatförändringar är det absolut nödvändigt att utveckla integrerat växtskydd som passar dom. Genom det gedigna nätverket som universitetet i Addis Ababa har med odlare och partners i regionen kan man se till att identifiera de komponenter som behöver variera över olika regioner. Eftersom subsahariska afrika är stort och består av många olika ekosystem och länder behövs det utvecklas metoder som möjliggör att komponenter i det integrerade växtskyddet anpassas för de lokala förutsättningarna, detta kräver att man modellerar vad de olika komponenterna bidrar med.

En sådan förstärkning har vidare ringar på vattnet, med stärkta kvinnor i lokalsamhället, ökade inkomster i låginkomstländer, lägre besprutning samt minskad hunger allt i samspel efter FNs hållbarhetsmål.

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.

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.

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.

Detta tros bero på en kombination av bristande information i befolkningen om vilka hälso-/sjukvårdstjänster som erbjuds, samt ojämlika maktstrukturer och könsskillnader i kunskap som inskränker kvinnors rätt över sin egen kropp och hälsa.Syftet med vårt projekt är att nå ut till kvinnor, speciellt marginaliserade grupper såsom droganvändare och sexarbetare, med hjälp av en rad olika metoder inklusive vår innovativa egenutvecklade online-metod webRDS för att öka tillgång till hälso-/sjukvård, SRHR information och stödinsatser för överlevare av könsbaserat våld.Vi avser också att samarbeta med London School of Hygiene and Tropical Health (LSHTM) som bidrar med ett starkt policyfokus och gedigen kunskap om hur man navigerar forskning i konfliktområden.

Many sub-Saharan African countries are facing an increase in non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as diabetes, obesity and metabolic syndrome due to lifestyle changes. At the same time infectious disease such as malaria remain highly endemic in these same areas. A recent study in Sweden detected a markedly increased risk of severe malaria in travellers with diabetes and obesity. Whether this is also found in endemic areas is yet to be confirmed. The purpose of this project is to establish a collaboration between institutions in Cameroon and Sweden; and to develop research projects to address the interplay between NCDs and malaria. We will perform a hospital-based study to assess disease severity and comorbidities. In addition, we will set up a cohort study to assess malaria parasite prevalence and immunity, as well as progress of diabetes. The proposed collaboration builds on highly complementary expertise that will enable generation of novel interdisciplinary findings of high public health importance. The collaboration includes workshops, seminars, research visits and planned PhD, and will be mutually beneficial for the research and development of both partners. Nära hälften av världens befolkning lever i ett område med risk för malaria och årligen drabbas ca 200 miljoner människor av denna infektion. Malaria är en potentiellt allvarlig sjukdom, och trots att det finns effektiv behandling så dör varje år ca 400 000 pga malaria. Merparten av både sjukdom och dödsfall i malaria sker i Afrika söder om Sahara. Att identifiera riskfaktorer för allvarlig malaria är en viktig del i förebyggandet av malaria relaterad sjuklighet och dödlighet.Det senaste decenniet har vi sett en kraftig global ökning av välfärdssjukdomar såsom diabetes, hjärtkärlsjukdom och fetma, även i malaria endemiska områden, och man pratar om att dessa länder bär en dubbel sjukdomsbörda. Hur välfärdssjukdomar interagerar med tropiska infektionssjukdomar är därför extra viktigt att studera. Diabetes och fetma är välkänt för att öka både incidens och allvarlighetsgrad av många olika typer av infektioner. Dock finns endast sparsamt med studier om hur diabetes, övervikt och andra metabola faktorer påverkar förloppet av en infektion med malaria. Högre prevalens av asymtomatisk malaria infektion har visats bland individer med typ 2 diabetes i Ghana och risken för malaria ökade ju sämre socker-kontroll individen hade. Vi har nyligen publicerat en studie om komorbiditeters påverkan på malaria hos 900 vuxna resenärer diagnosticerade med P. falciparum infektion i Sverige. Risken för allvarlig malaria var 3 gånger ökad vid diabetes, 5 gånger vid kraftig övervikt, och över 6 gånger ökad vid metabolt syndrom. Sambandet sågs hos både svenska resenärer och immigranter från länder där malaria är endemiskt. Det är dock okänt om detta samband även ses i malaria endemiska områden där de flesta vuxna individer utvecklat viss immunitet mot malaria.Kamerun är ett av de 10 länder i Afrika som står för merparten av världens malariafall, med över 1 miljon diagnosticerade fall per år, samtidigt som prevalensen av både diabetes och övervikt är lika hög som i många Europeiska länder. Dessutom har det uppskattats att över 2/3 av diabetiker i vissa delar av Kamerun är odiagnostiserade.Tillsammans med kliniker och forskare i Kamerun önskar vi initiera ett sjukhusbaserat projekt för att undersöka hur den ökade bördan av diabetes och andra metabola sjukdomar påverkar asymtomatiskt malaria bärarskap samt även risken för allvarlig malaria och dess komplikationer.Flera studier planeras inom ramen för detta projekt där vi mer specifikt ämnar att:Fastställa hur vanligt förekommande diabetes och metabolt syndrom är bland patienter med malaria som läggs in på sjukhus i Kameruns  samt undersöka risken för allvarlig och dödlig malaria hos individer med typ 2 diabetes och/eller metabolt syndrom.Fastställa om individer med diabetes och/eller metabolt syndrom har en ökad risk för asymtomatisk malaria och om det finns specifika riskprofiler inom dessa grupper.Undersöka om malaria kan påverka diabetes utveckling genom att studera hur en malaria infektion påverkar parametrar såsom insulinproduktion, blodsocker och långtidssocker både hos diabetiker och friska.Utforska antikroppssvar för P.falciparum malaria hos individer med och utan diabetes och/eller metabolt syndrom.Studierna kommer drivas av en tilltänkt doktorand från Kamerun, med handledning från Karolinska Institutet samt University of Dschang i Kamerun. Samabetet involverar specifik expertis inom både diabetes och malaria och kommer även inkludera workshops och seminarier för att utbyta kunskap och erfarenhet från de olika forskningsområdena.Det övergripande syftet med detta projekt är att etablera samarbete mellan forskningsinstitutioner i Kamerun och Sverige samt att undersöka samband mellan välfärdssjukdomar och malaria. Vi tror att detta samarbete kommer att generera resultat som är viktiga ur ett globalt hälsoperspektiv och förhoppningsvis leda till förbättrad handläggningen och förebyggande av både malaria och diabetes-relaterad sjuklighet och dödlighet.

The conservation and sustainable use of oceans is a priority for global development (SDG 14), but so is poverty eradication (SDG 1) and reduced inequality (SDG 10). Research on coastal fishing communities in Tanzania has shown that indigenous knowledge can be beneficial for marine conservation and resource management, but environmental sustainability needs to be better aligned with social sustainability. This project aims at identifying how indigenous knowledge can be leveraged for sea sustainability, while improving livelihoods and alleviating poverty in fishing communities. Carried out by a multidisciplinary team of Swedish and Tanzanian researchers, it brings together anthropology, development studies and marine social science. To advance scientific knowledge production, it foregrounds theorizing with the sea, exploring how fishing communities relate to and coexist with the ocean in the making of Swahili ocean worlds. The project also aims at practical intervention through creative forms of multistakeholder engagement, focusing on how marine resource management can be harmonized with poverty alleviation. Designed as a three-year collaborative research project, it combines digital, visual and sensory ethnographic research methods with workshops, exhibitions and participatory video, to translate research results into action for sustainable living with the sea. Hur kan havets hållbarhet stärkas i samklang med minskad fattgdom och social hållbarhet i fiskesamhällen i låginkomstländer som Tanzania? Medan havets hållbarhet är centralt för människolivet i allmänhet så är det särskilt relevant i områden som Swahili-kusten, där samhällen är beroende av småskaligt fiske för sin försörjning. Detta småskaliga kustnära fiske erbjuder en mer hållbar användning av marina resurser än modernt industriellt fiske, vilket uppmärksammas i det globala utvecklingsmålet om hav, SDG 14. Men kvinnor och män i dessa kustsamhällen kämpar också med höga nivåer av fattigdom och osäker försörjning, vilket understryker vikten av minskad fattigdom (SDG 1) och minskade ojämlikheter (SDG 10). Detta projekt behandlar både miljömässigt och socialt hållbar utveckling, med det övergripande syftet att identifiera hur inhemsk kunskap kan bidra till havets hållbarhet, samtidigt som man förbättrar försörjningen och minskar fattigdomen i fiskesamhällen i Tanzania.Begreppet Swahili Havsvärldar fångar projektets teoretiska nytänkande. Forskningens vetenskapliga ansats kretsar kring teoretisering med havet – att tänka genom och med havet. Genom att sätta havet i fokus undersöker projektet havets roll i de sociala världar som skapas av samhällen utmed Swahilikusten. Swahili betyder kust, så dessa kustnära samhällen har en lång historia av samlevnad med havet. För att förstå de sociala, materiella och spirituella relationer som utgör Swahili Havsvärldar använder projektet innovativa forskningsmetoder, inklusive digitala, visuella och sensoriska metoder. Empirisk data samlas in genom deltagande observation och intervjuer i olika fiskesamhällen, genom multilokalt etnografiskt fältarbete. Materialet ger insikter i inhemsk kunskap om havet, vilket klargör hur kustsamhällen förhåller sig till och samexisterar med havet. En förstudie för detta projekt har redan påvisat komplexa inhemska kunskapssystem som erbjuder en kulturell grund för ett hållbart liv med havet.Forskningsprojektet har även ett praktiskt mål, nämligen att översätta forskningsresultaten till handling genom kreativa former av samverkan med olika nyckelaktörer. Projektets fokus är kopplat till Tanzanias Utvecklingsvision 2025, som uppmärksammar vikten av att vända nedbrytningen av miljöresurser, inklusive fiske.  Projektet relaterar även till den nya strategin för svenskt utvecklingssamarbete med Tanzania för 2020-2024, som har miljö och klimat som ett av fyra resultatområden, med hållbart utnyttjande av marina ekosystem som ett specifikt mål. Genom innovativa former av samverkan, såsom workshops, utställningar och deltagande video, kommer projektet att samverka med olika intressenter, från samhällsmedlemmar och lokala myndigheter till konstnärer, aktivister och experter. Genom att föra samman dessa nyckelaktörer kan projektet både inspirera och motivera kollektiva ansträngningar för en mer miljövänlig och socialt hållbar samlevnad med havet. Dessa insatser kommer också att förmedlas digitalt, för att bredda deltagandet och dokumentera processen.Projektet genomförs av ett tvärvetenskapligt team av svenska och tanzaniska forskare, som sammanför antropologi, utvecklingsstudier och marin samhällsvetenskap. Antropologisk teori och metod erbjuder ett jämförande helhetsperspektiv och empiriskt tillvägagångssätt som breddar förståelsen av hållbar samlevnad med havet. Forskningsperspektiv från marin samhällsvetenskap och utvecklingsstudier säkerställer att kunskapsproduktionen är väl förankrad i ett lokalt utvecklingssammanhang. Detta tvärvetenskapliga tillvägagångssätt är även viktigt för kapacitetsutveckling, som är en del av projektets ansats. För att säkerställa en mer långsiktig kunskapsproduktion kommer en av gruppmedlemmarna att genomgå ett doktorandprogram i utvecklingsstudier som en del av detta projekt, som därmed bygger forskningskapacitet vid University of Dar es Salaam i Tanzania.

In the absence of efficient malaria vaccines, the globally rising drug resistance in Plasmodium parasites necessitates new antiplasmodial drug discovery. The COVID19 epidemic drains resources from the fight against malaria, further aggravating the situation for years to come.P. vivax establishes chronic infections through its dormant stage in the host liver. This makes it difficult to control, and also puts a great burden on afflicted populations because of the lengthy infections. Development of drugs against P. vivax has been lagging, as no experimentally tractable life cycle phase exists. Consequently, antimalarial drugs with few exceptions target P. falciparum. 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. AI approaches in virtual screening and robotics in physical screening accelerate finding small molecule drug candidates. 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. Detta skulle vara ett viktigt bidrag till att trycka tillbaka malarians expansion.

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. Detta skulle vara ett viktigt bidrag till att trycka tillbaka malarians expansion.

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. Dessa är sedan i sin tur kritiska för att kontrollera den globala spridningen av tuberkulos.

Barnmorskeprofessionen är central för sexuell, reproduktiv hälsa och rättigheter i världen. Forskning visar att upp till 80 procent av kvinnors dödsfall i samband med graviditet och förlossning skulle kunna undvikas om kvinnor hade tillgång till vård given av en välutbildad legitimerad barnmorska integrerad i ett hälsosystem där specialistvård finns tillgänglig vid behov. Barriärer och faktorer som främjar barnmorskans roll i hälsovårdssystemet finns på olika nivåer och influeras av politik och hälsosystemets struktur. I de länder där professionella barnmorskor finns som en del i hälsovårdssystemet ser barnmorskans roll olika ut, och så gör även behoven som finns att möta.

Preventivmedelsanvändningen uppskattas till 9%. Barnmorskeprofessionen är etablerad i landet, dock ej adresserad vetenskapligt, och bland utmaningarna ses bland annat bristande kompetensförsörjning, behov att sluta gapet mellan teori och praktik och bristande tillgång till vård och stöd under graviditet och förlossning. Under 2019 beslöt regeringen att anställa ytterligare 500 barnmorskor till år 2025. Sveriges mödra- och nyföddhetsdödlighet hör till det lägsta i världen och Sverige har en lång tradition av professionella barnmorskor i hälsovårdssystemet. Sverige ses i dessa avseenden som ett föregångsland i världen, men nya utmaningar ses, relaterade till barnmorskans roll: behov hos en divergerad befolkning, bristande kompetensförsörjning, en ökad medikalisering kring graviditet och förlossning, ifrågasättande av barnmorskans akademiska nivå och avsaknad av barnmorskor på flera ledande nivåer i hälsosystemet. Gambia och Sverige är två länder, med stor a geoolitiska skillnader men båda med etablerade barnmorskeprofessioner erkända inom hälsosystemet - med inbördes utmaningar på olika nivåer. Hur kan de framgångar som erhållits genom åren inom barnmorskans arbetsfält och utbildning värnas och utvecklas? Hur kan "lessons learned" i båda länderna bidra till och initiera förändring i de olika kontexterna? Genom att applicera ett ramverk med hälsosystemet i fokus, kan ömsesidigt ärande från dessa båda unika miljöer faciliteras och nya perspektiv adderas.  Det övergripande syftet med nätverkssamarbetet är att bidra med en bas av evidensbaserad kunskap för förbättra kvaliteten inom barnmorskerelaterad vård, först och främst i Gambia, med ett ömsesidigt lärande mellan de två länderna som i förlängningen leder till förbättrad SRHR. Ett forskningssamarbete med nätverksaktiviteter kommer i denna första fas prioritera och lägga grunden till en relevant forskningsagenda, Baserat på detta kommer forskningsansökningar för projektbidrag för kommande år att skrivas.  Aktiviteterna inkluderar dialog via internet och fysiskt på plats i Gambia och Sverige, och arbetsdagar med nyckelpersoner på olika nivåer i hälsosystemet (kliniska barnmorskor, barnmorskelärare, representanter för barnmorskeförbund, och från myndighetsnivå), fältstudier på lärosäten, i klinik samt hos relevanta myndigheter. Därutöver skrivande av forskningsansökningar och vid behov etiska tillstånd för nästa fas, samt deltagande i en kurs kring hälsosystem och vid internationell kongress. Forskningskomponenter i nästa fas kommer att inkludera interventioner riktade mot barnmorskans roll på de nivåer i hälsovårdssystemet där de största behoven identifierats. Ansökan är i linje med Gambias "National Reproductive, Maternal, Neonatal, Child and Adolescent Health (RMNCAH) Policy 2017-2026", vari regeringen överlåtit sig till att förbättra och stödja den reproduktiva hälsan hos kvinnor, män, barn och unga i landet, samt att stödja forskning inom fältet i partnerskap med forskningsaktörer.

Under 2019 beslöt regeringen att anställa ytterligare 500 barnmorskor till år 2025. Sveriges mödra- och nyföddhetsdödlighet hör till det lägsta i världen och Sverige har en lång tradition av professionella barnmorskor i hälsovårdssystemet. Sverige ses i dessa avseenden som ett föregångsland i världen, men nya utmaningar ses, relaterade till barnmorskans roll: behov hos en divergerad befolkning, bristande kompetensförsörjning, en ökad medikalisering kring graviditet och förlossning, ifrågasättande av barnmorskans akademiska nivå och avsaknad av barnmorskor på flera ledande nivåer i hälsosystemet. Gambia och Sverige är två länder, med stor a geoolitiska skillnader men båda med etablerade barnmorskeprofessioner erkända inom hälsosystemet - med inbördes utmaningar på olika nivåer. Hur kan de framgångar som erhållits genom åren inom barnmorskans arbetsfält och utbildning värnas och utvecklas? Hur kan "lessons learned" i båda länderna bidra till och initiera förändring i de olika kontexterna? Genom att applicera ett ramverk med hälsosystemet i fokus, kan ömsesidigt ärande från dessa båda unika miljöer faciliteras och nya perspektiv adderas.  Det övergripande syftet med nätverkssamarbetet är att bidra med en bas av evidensbaserad kunskap för förbättra kvaliteten inom barnmorskerelaterad vård, först och främst i Gambia, med ett ömsesidigt lärande mellan de två länderna som i förlängningen leder till förbättrad SRHR. Ett forskningssamarbete med nätverksaktiviteter kommer i denna första fas prioritera och lägga grunden till en relevant forskningsagenda, Baserat på detta kommer forskningsansökningar för projektbidrag för kommande år att skrivas.  Aktiviteterna inkluderar dialog via internet och fysiskt på plats i Gambia och Sverige, och arbetsdagar med nyckelpersoner på olika nivåer i hälsosystemet (kliniska barnmorskor, barnmorskelärare, representanter för barnmorskeförbund, och från myndighetsnivå), fältstudier på lärosäten, i klinik samt hos relevanta myndigheter. Därutöver skrivande av forskningsansökningar och vid behov etiska tillstånd för nästa fas, samt deltagande i en kurs kring hälsosystem och vid internationell kongress. Forskningskomponenter i nästa fas kommer att inkludera interventioner riktade mot barnmorskans roll på de nivåer i hälsovårdssystemet där de största behoven identifierats. Ansökan är i linje med Gambias "National Reproductive, Maternal, Neonatal, Child and Adolescent Health (RMNCAH) Policy 2017-2026", vari regeringen överlåtit sig till att förbättra och stödja den reproduktiva hälsan hos kvinnor, män, barn och unga i landet, samt att stödja forskning inom fältet i partnerskap med forskningsaktörer.

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. Dessa metoder kan senare användas i alla 13 länder (inklusive Madagaskar, som kommer att läggas till i nätverket) för att hjälpa till att svara på frågor om hur mänskliga aktiviteter, inklusive trädplantering, brandbekämpning eller boskap, påverkar både koldioxid och vilt. Vi hoppas också få se konsekvenserna av miljöförändringar för människor som är beroende av skogsmarken för mat och andra varor och tjänster genom att se vilka växter och djur som är viktiga för deras dagliga liv.Bortsett från våra forskningsmål kommer detta utökade nätverk att erbjuda utbildningsmöjligheter för unga afrikanska forskare.

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.

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. Projektet gör också intervjuer med workshopdeltagarna, och en omfattande policyanalys av relevant policy och lagstiftning i Tanzania.Datamaterialet analyseras med hjälp av ett teoretiskt ramverk som består av maskulinitetsteori och feministisk institutionalism. Detta ramverk möjliggör forskningsfrågor som fokuserar på hur institutioner möjliggör maktmissbruk. Hur säkrar policies till att fall av sextortion kan anmälas och följas upp, att anmälare skyddas och förövare lagförs?

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.

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. Därför är det viktigt att vanliga människors erfarenheter och röster om språk och offentliga texter i stadens gator kommer fram och når beslutsfattare.

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. Därför är det viktigt att vanliga människors erfarenheter och röster om språk och offentliga texter i stadens gator kommer fram och når beslutsfattare.

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.

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.).

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.

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.

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.

An efficacious vaccine is urgently needed. Vaccine design is challenged by difficulties in identifying the specific antigens against which protective antibodies are directed. Given the extensive diversity of many parasite antigens, immunity is believed to require an antibody repertoire against multiple antigen variants. The aim of this project is to improve the understanding the naturally acquired immunity to malaria, focusing on antigen diversity and maintenance of immunity. The project will explore antigen diversity focusing on polymorphic merozoite surface proteins, in relation to antibody and memory B cell responses and their role in protection. A newly developed sequencing method will allow characterization of antigen diversity across geographical areas, and design of a peptide microarray and recombinant antigens that will be used to investigate the breadth, magnitude and cross-reactivity of antibody responses. Memory B cell responses will be assessed using a newly developed multiplex B cell FluoroSpot method. Studies are performed in longitudinal cohort in Kenya and Tanzania, as well as travelers treated for malaria in Sweden. The project builds on close collaboration between researchers Kenya, Tanzania and Sweden and involves joint PhD students. The overall goal is to contribute to the development of an efficacious multicomponent vaccine against malaria. Malaria förblir ett av de stora globala hälsoproblemen med hög sjuklighet och dödlighet särskilt hos barn i Afrika söder om Sahara. Ett effektivt vaccin behövs för att bekämpa och utrota malaria på sikt. Utmaningen med att utveckla effektiva vaccin mot malaria är att parasiten har stor genetisk variabilitet och att immuniteten är stamspecifik. Dessutom behöver skyddet kunna upprätthållas över tid. Individer som bor i endemiska områden utvecklar, efter upprepade infektioner, immunitet som skyddar mot all bli sjuk vid när de smittas med malariaparasiter. Antikroppar är viktiga i detta skydd. En ökad förståelse för hur denna naturliga immunitet utvecklas och bibehålls och hur antikroppar skyddar mot olika varianter av parasitantigen behövs för att vägleda vaccinutvecklingen. Syftet med detta projekt är att studera hur immuniteten mot malaria utvecklas, med fokus på variabla parasitantigenen och upprätthållande av immunitet. Den genetiska mångfalden av variabla antigen kommer att studeras i olika geografiska områden med en ny sekvenseringsmetod. Vidare kommer vi att utrycka antigen som vi kommer att använda för analyser av antikropps- och minnessvar efter malariainfektion och studera hur dessa korrelerar till skydd mot malaria. Studierna kommer att utföras i Kenya och Tanzania där barn och vuxna följs över tid med avseende på malariainfektioner, och även på resenärer behandlade för malaria i Sverige. Projektet bygger på samarbeten med forskargrupper i Kenya och Tanzania och gemensamma doktorander. Projektet förväntas bidra till utveckling av ett effektivt multikomponentvaccin mot malaria.

The school has two overarching objectives: (1) to contribute to high-quality and boundary-crossing doctoral research in the focus area; and (2) to strengthen collaboration and networks between the four partner universities and between individual doctoral students within and beyond these universities. The school is organised as a partnership between the universities of Lund, Gothenburg and Uppsala, and the University of Ghana. While the school is coordinated and administered by Lund University, a programme committee and an international advisory board will oversee its work. The school will be open to doctoral students from the four partners but also from other universities and from any discipline. The work program is structured in five activities: (a) jointly developed interdisciplinary doctoral courses, (b) a monthly research seminar, (c) policy dialogues with invited guests intended to bridge the gap between research and policy, (e) a mobility programme, and (e) other capacity-building and skills training activities. Through its work, the school seeks to close a major gap in Swedish doctoral training. So far, there has been a lack of both systematic knowledge and collaboration on issues related to governance, power and inequality within the overall context of the sustainable development goals. När FN:s medlemsländer antog Agenda 2030 och de globala hållbarhetsmålen år 2015 markerade detta ett globalt samförstånd på högsta politiska nivå kring de hållbarhetsutmaningar världen står inför och de lösningar som krävs. Som väntat har genomförandet av målen visat sig vara ytterst komplicerat, vilket kommer till uttryck i exempelvis fortgående klimatförändringar, arbetslöshet, fattigdom, våld och ojämlikhet.

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. Nätverket kommer också att sträva efter att nå ut till policy-skapare, praktiker liksom civilsamhällesorganisationer.

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. Nätverket kommer också att sträva efter att nå ut till policy-skapare, praktiker liksom civilsamhällesorganisationer.

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.

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattningDen Demokratiska republiken Kongo är bland de fattigaste länderna i världen, där ohälsan drabbar den stora majoriteten av befolkningen. Kvinnor och flickor bär det mesta av sjukdomsbördan: fertilitetsgraden är hög, med upp till 6 barn per kvinna, kvinnor saknar preventiv medel vilket leder till oväntade graviditeter speciellt bland de unga.  Mödradödligheten är bland de värsta i världen. Trots att så många som 87% av födslarna äger rum i hälsoinrättningar, förblir dödligheten oacceptabelt hög, vilket tyder på att det är vårdkvaliteten inom sjukvården som är dålig. Sexuellt och könsbaserat våld finns i överflöd, liksom osäkra aborter vilket är en stor bidragande faktor till mödradödligheten. Myndigheterna i DRK har tagit fram en ambitiös strategi för att förbättra den allmänna sjukvården (den s.k. universell hälsotäckning som syftar till att göra sjukvården tillgänglig för alla). Strategin sätter fokus på mödra- och barnhälsovård och sexuella och reproduktiva tjänster och rättigheter. Detta strategiska fokus på mödrahälsa har framhävt barnmorskors betydelse och betonat brådskan med att snabbt utbilda fler samt förbättra barnmorskornas kapacitet.Tyvärr är barnmorskeprofessionen inte så högt värderad i den kongolesiska hälsovården. De är få i antal, är lågt avlönade och saknar ofta den kvalifikation som krävs för att arbeta enligt internationella kvalitetskrav. DRK lider ett akut behov av barnmorskor som kan tillhandahålla omfattande mödravård samt sexuella och reproduktiva tjänster med omedelbara, kortvariga, långvariga och större folkhälsoutfall som beskrivs i barnmorskans kvalitetskrav inom vården.

To limit the high mortality and morbidity caused by STIs there is an urgent need to develop preventive and therapeutic interventions against these infections. One of the most significant correlates of increased susceptibility to STIs in women is being colonized with a polymicrobial anaerobic cervicovaginal microbiome. During 2022-2024, we aim to identify mechanisms of host susceptibility to STIs that can inform us on preventive measures as well as drug targets. Genital tissue samples from African women being colonized with a non-optimal (STI-risk associated) microbiome will be compared to samples representing a healthy Lactobacillus-dominated microbiome. Gene expression patterns in the samples associated to the various microbiome compositions will be unravelled by spatial transcriptomics and in situ sequencing. This discovery phase will be followed by validation of the gene expression patterns in an ex vivo genital tissue explant model. As a proof-of-concept for the link between the identified molecular mechanisms and susceptibility to STIs, tissue explants representing various microbiome compositions will be challenged with infectious virus isolates. Strengthening the genital epithelial barrier as well as modulating signaling pathways and immune functions with novel compounds would be important advances to prevent and treat STIs. Men and women differ in their susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections (STIs). While the present study is focused on molecular mechanisms of susceptibility to STIs in the female genital mucosa, we have previously studied similar mechanisms in the male genital mucosa (penile foreskin and preputial secretions). Since then we have improved our technical platforms and can now perform more advanced indepth studies on molecular mechanisms in mucosal tissue. A new project has been initiated by us with collaborators in Uganda to explore the male genital mucosa using these novel methods. Hopefully this can add complementary data to explain why men and women differ in the susceptibility to STIs. Sexuellt överförbara infektioner är förknippade med en hög sjuklighet och dödlighet i låginkomstländer. Konsekvenserna av sådana infektioner kan medföra svåra komplikationer för kvinnors och mäns sexuella och reproduktiva hälsa. Diagnostiska tester, profylax och behandling av könssjukdomar är mycket begränsade i låginkomstländer. Ett av de mest signifikanta korrelaten av ökad känslighet för dessa infektioner hos kvinnor är att vara koloniserad med en polymikrobiell anaerob genitalflora. För att begränsa de negativa konsekvenserna av könssjukdomar finns ett stort globalt behov av att utveckla både förebyggande och behandlande interventioner mot dessa infektioner. Vi kommer i detta projekt att identifiera molekylära mekanismer som är associerade med känslighet för könssjukdomar och på det sättet skapa en grund för läkemedelsutveckling eller andra typer av interventioner. Vävnadsbiopsier från livmoderhalstappen från afrikanska kvinnor kommer att kartläggas för RNA-expressionsmönster och relateras till mikroflorans komposition. RNA-expressionen kommer att analyseras med helt nya molekylära tekniker som möjliggör lokalisering av genuttrycket med mycket hög upplösning till subcellulär nivå i genitalepitelet och dess submukosa. Detta är speciellt relevant då samma molekylära signal kan ge ökad motståndskraft mot infektioner när den uttrycks i den övre delen av epitelet medans samma signal kan skada mukosabarriären i den nedre delen av epitelet. Exempel på detta är vissa antimikrobiella peptider som kan neutralisera mikrober när de uttrycks av epitelceller och utsöndras i genitalsekretet. När de istället uttrycks av exempelvis makrofager och neutrofiler inne i vävnaden orsakas inflammation och vävnadsskada. Efter kartläggning av genuttryck och lokalisation i vävnadsbiopsierna från kvinnor med olika mikrobiomkompositioner så kommer dessa upptäckter att valideras i en experimentell vävnadsmodell. Vävnadsmodellen består av små livmoderhalstappsbiopsier som kan bevaras i vävnadskultur upp till två veckor i laboratoriemiljö. Som evidens för kopplingen mellan de identifierade molekylära signalerna och känsligheten för könssjukdomar så kan dessa vävnadskulturer utsättas för experimentella infektioner.  Kvinnors genitala mikroflora är tyvärr relativt motståndskraftig mot de interventioner vi har tillgång till i dagsläget. Att identifiera nya sätt att förstärka genitalslemhinnan och påverka mikrofloran skulle ha stor betydelse för att begränsa de allvarliga konsekvenserna av sexuellt överförbara infektioner i ett globalt perspektiv. Män och kvinnor skiljer sig åt i sin känslighet för sexuellt överförbara infektioner (STI). Medan den aktuella studien är fokuserad på molekylära mekanismer för mottaglighet för sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar i den kvinnliga genitala slemhinnan, har vi tidigare studerat liknande mekanismer i den manliga genitala slemhinnan (penisförhud och preputiala sekret).

To limit the high mortality and morbidity caused by STIs there is an urgent need to develop preventive and therapeutic interventions against these infections. One of the most significant correlates of increased susceptibility to STIs in women is being colonized with a polymicrobial anaerobic cervicovaginal microbiome. During 2022-2024, we aim to identify mechanisms of host susceptibility to STIs that can inform us on preventive measures as well as drug targets. Genital tissue samples from African women being colonized with a non-optimal (STI-risk associated) microbiome will be compared to samples representing a healthy Lactobacillus-dominated microbiome. Gene expression patterns in the samples associated to the various microbiome compositions will be unravelled by spatial transcriptomics and in situ sequencing. This discovery phase will be followed by validation of the gene expression patterns in an ex vivo genital tissue explant model. As a proof-of-concept for the link between the identified molecular mechanisms and susceptibility to STIs, tissue explants representing various microbiome compositions will be challenged with infectious virus isolates. Strengthening the genital epithelial barrier as well as modulating signaling pathways and immune functions with novel compounds would be important advances to prevent and treat STIs. Men and women differ in their susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections (STIs). While the present study is focused on molecular mechanisms of susceptibility to STIs in the female genital mucosa, we have previously studied similar mechanisms in the male genital mucosa (penile foreskin and preputial secretions). Since then we have improved our technical platforms and can now perform more advanced indepth studies on molecular mechanisms in mucosal tissue. A new project has been initiated by us with collaborators in Uganda to explore the male genital mucosa using these novel methods. Hopefully this can add complementary data to explain why men and women differ in the susceptibility to STIs. Sexuellt överförbara infektioner är förknippade med en hög sjuklighet och dödlighet i låginkomstländer. Konsekvenserna av sådana infektioner kan medföra svåra komplikationer för kvinnors och mäns sexuella och reproduktiva hälsa. Diagnostiska tester, profylax och behandling av könssjukdomar är mycket begränsade i låginkomstländer. Ett av de mest signifikanta korrelaten av ökad känslighet för dessa infektioner hos kvinnor är att vara koloniserad med en polymikrobiell anaerob genitalflora. För att begränsa de negativa konsekvenserna av könssjukdomar finns ett stort globalt behov av att utveckla både förebyggande och behandlande interventioner mot dessa infektioner. Vi kommer i detta projekt att identifiera molekylära mekanismer som är associerade med känslighet för könssjukdomar och på det sättet skapa en grund för läkemedelsutveckling eller andra typer av interventioner. Vävnadsbiopsier från livmoderhalstappen från afrikanska kvinnor kommer att kartläggas för RNA-expressionsmönster och relateras till mikroflorans komposition. RNA-expressionen kommer att analyseras med helt nya molekylära tekniker som möjliggör lokalisering av genuttrycket med mycket hög upplösning till subcellulär nivå i genitalepitelet och dess submukosa. Detta är speciellt relevant då samma molekylära signal kan ge ökad motståndskraft mot infektioner när den uttrycks i den övre delen av epitelet medans samma signal kan skada mukosabarriären i den nedre delen av epitelet. Exempel på detta är vissa antimikrobiella peptider som kan neutralisera mikrober när de uttrycks av epitelceller och utsöndras i genitalsekretet. När de istället uttrycks av exempelvis makrofager och neutrofiler inne i vävnaden orsakas inflammation och vävnadsskada. Efter kartläggning av genuttryck och lokalisation i vävnadsbiopsierna från kvinnor med olika mikrobiomkompositioner så kommer dessa upptäckter att valideras i en experimentell vävnadsmodell. Vävnadsmodellen består av små livmoderhalstappsbiopsier som kan bevaras i vävnadskultur upp till två veckor i laboratoriemiljö. Som evidens för kopplingen mellan de identifierade molekylära signalerna och känsligheten för könssjukdomar så kan dessa vävnadskulturer utsättas för experimentella infektioner.  Kvinnors genitala mikroflora är tyvärr relativt motståndskraftig mot de interventioner vi har tillgång till i dagsläget. Att identifiera nya sätt att förstärka genitalslemhinnan och påverka mikrofloran skulle ha stor betydelse för att begränsa de allvarliga konsekvenserna av sexuellt överförbara infektioner i ett globalt perspektiv. Män och kvinnor skiljer sig åt i sin känslighet för sexuellt överförbara infektioner (STI). Medan den aktuella studien är fokuserad på molekylära mekanismer för mottaglighet för sexuellt överförbara sjukdomar i den kvinnliga genitala slemhinnan, har vi tidigare studerat liknande mekanismer i den manliga genitala slemhinnan (penisförhud och preputiala sekret). Sedan dess har vi förbättrat våra tekniska plattformar och kan nu utföra mer avancerade djupstudier av molekylära mekanismer i slemhinnevävnad. Ett nytt projekt har initierats av oss med samarbetspartners i Uganda för att utforska den manliga genitala slemhinnan med dessa nya metoder.

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.

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.

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. Our findings will contribute to capacity building for microbiological monitoring in developing countries and the development of ecosystem-based management of water resources in Africa. 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.

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.

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. This will be explored through a series of seminars and workshops aided by formative research activities. Partners comprise of HERD International and the Ministry of Health and Population, Nepal; the Department of Public Health, Gadjah Mada University, Indonesia; and the Department of Epidemiology and Global Health, Umeå University, Sweden. 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.

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.

I dag råder en aldrig tidigare skådad ojämlikhet vad gäller fördelningen av mark, inte minst i Afrika där fattiga småbönder kontinuerligt förlorar mark till eliter och privata bolag. Mark utgör basen för småbönders livsuppehälle – för jordbruksproduktion och betesdjur, men även för insamlandet av livsnödvändiga naturresurser. Småbönder står dessutom för huvuddelen av Afrikas matproduktion. Den ojämlika fördelningen av mark sätter därför både fattigdomsbekämpning och livsmedelssäkerhet på spel. Lösningar för att främja en mer jämlik fördelning av mark behövs, men är svåra att hitta. Vår tidigare forskning visar dock att det finns ett outforskat fenomen som kan bidra till en mer jämlik fördelning av mark på Afrikas landsbygd: ett stort antal storskaliga jordbruksinvesteringar för biobränsle- och matproduktion som initierats de senaste åren, har avbrutits då de inte startat någon produktion eller gått i konkurs. För att ge plats åt dessa tänkta jordbruksinvesteringar har stora arealer mark, som ofta användes av småbönder, hyrts ut eller sålts till privata företag. Med starkt stöd från regeringar, biståndsorgan och utvecklingsbanker har totalt 45 miljoner hektar i Afrika (en yta motsvarande Sveriges areal) avsatts för sådan produktion, med förväntningar på ökad livsmedelsproduktion, arbetstillfällen och fattigdomsbekämpning.

När projekten avbryts ligger dock marken ofta obrukad och minst 12 miljoner hektar mark uppskattas ha blivit övergiven på detta sätt. Eftersom mark är starkt förknippat med ekonomisk vinning och politiskt inflytande finns det många konkurrerande intressen för övergiven mark.

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.

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.

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.

Many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) rely on CTs in their national social protection systems, reaching more than 700 million people. CTs are often targeting mothers in order to promote child development and gender equality. However, there are significant knowledge gaps on the link between CTs and child development as well as gender equality: we lack evidence on the cost-effectiveness of CTs relative to parenting programs and on the importance of choosing the mother or the father as the recipient. In this project, we will leverage the new state-of-the-art research infrastructure of an ongoing nationally representative longitudinal study in Tanzania. The ongoing study includes an RCT with a parenting program. This project will implement an unconditional cash transfer (UCT) to 800 households in which we randomize whether mothers or fathers receive the transfer. This will i) allow us to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of a UCT program and compare it to that of a parenting program that is comparable in timing, setting, and the age of the target child and ii) evaluate whether children are better off with mothers or fathers as recipients. Furthermore, we will investigate the effects of gender-targeted CTs on different domains of women’s empowerment, such as decision-making and bargaining power within the household, and on intimate partner violence. Kontantöverföringsprogram når mer än 700 miljoner personer i låg-och medelinkomstländer. Afrika söder om Sahara har erfarit en stor ökning av kontantöverföringsprogram. År 2014 använde 40 länder ovillkorade kontantöverföringar som en del av sina sociala skyddssystem. Studier som utvärderar effekterna av kontantöverföringsprogram har dokumenterat positiva effekter på många områden, inklusive tillräcklig tillgång till näringsrik mat, skolgång, barnarbete, barnhälsa och livsmedelsförsörjning. Nyligen har kontantöverföringsprogram också förespråkats som viktiga för att mildra effekterna av COVID-19 och skydda dem som drabbas hårdast av viruset eller de restriktioner som det medför.Föräldrarna är viktiga för att fastställa de investeringar som är avgörande för barnets utveckling, från beteendet under graviditeten (t ex alkoholkonsumtion och våld) till matning, läsning, lek och användandet av utbildnings- och hälsotjänster. I många låg- och medelinkomstländer så får många barn inte den omvårdnad som krävs för att de ska uppfylla sin utvecklingspotential. Kontantöverföringsprogram bygger på föreställningen om att omvårdnaden kollapsar under svåra omständigheter som förorsakats av extrem fattigdom (t ex osäkerhet vad gäller mat, familjestress) och att tillhandahållandet av kontanter kan hjälpa till att förbättra dessa omständigheter. Det förblir emellertid osäkert huruvida det är mer effektivt att erhålla en kontantöverföring än att erhålla information om omvårdnad genom ett föräldraskapsprogram. Tidigare studier har visat att kontantöverföringsprogram är effektiva när det gäller att förbättra barns näringsintag och utveckling och att föräldraskapsprogram är effektiva för att förbättra andra utfall så som språk och kognitiv utveckling. Bevisen är emellertid spridda över tid, sektorer och sammanhang, vilket gör det svårt att jämföra de två typerna av program. I den här studien kommer vi att utforma den första randomiserade kontrollerade studien (RCT) som möjliggör en välgrundad jämförelse av ett ovillkorat kontantöverföringsprogram och ett föräldraskapsprogram. Båda programmen kommer att genomföras i en och samma region i Tanzania, stödja barn i samma ålder (med början innan barnets födelse) och med exakt samma frekvens.En avsevärd del av kontantöverföringsprogrammet riktar sig till kvinnor, speciellt i frågor som rör barn. Argumentet för detta är att det är mer sannolikt att kvinnor spenderar pengarna på sina barn och därför kommer barnen att få det bättre än om fokus låg på männen. Bevisen för detta argument är knappa. I den här studien kommer vi att slumpartat ge kontantöverföringen till antingen modern eller fadern i hushållet vilket gör det möjligt för oss att ge mer bevis i denna fråga. Vidare kommer den s k RCT:n att vara en del av en existerande nationellt representativ studie vilket ger oss en unik möjlighet att generalisera våra rön till regioner utanför studieområdet och att använda resultaten för att bedöma den relativa kostnadseffektiviteten i att rikta sig mot kvinnor respektive män i större skala.Ett annat skäl varför kontantöverföringsprogram riktar sig mot kvinnor är föreställningen att det ökar kvinnornas kontroll över familjens resurser vilket i sin tur ökar deras bemyndigande och leder till större jämlikhet mellan könen. Rönen avslöjar ett blandat budskap, ofta till följd av att det är komplicerat att mäta kvinnors bemyndigande inom familjen. Vi kommer att tillhandahålla nya mått på kvinnors bemyndigande och testa huruvida kontantöverföringsprogram påverkar dessa mått och i vilka aspekter.Våld mellan intima partner har visat sig minska efter en kontantöverföring.

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. ARC är den ledande forskningsinstitutionen inom jordbruket. den representerar det sudanesiska jordbruksministeriets tekniska gren och har en framgångsrik historia för att lösa jordbruksproduktionsproblem genom genetisk förbättring och grödoregistrering. Dessutom kommer jordbrukare att delta i jordbruksfältskola, deltagande avel, utbildning och kapacitetsuppbyggnad. Detta är en integrerad del av detta projekt för att säkerställa kontinuitet i ansträngningarna för durraförbättring och förbättra den sociala effekten av forskningen. Dessutom kommer lantbrukare att delta i deltagande avel och utbildning och kapacitetsuppbyggnad är en integrerad del av detta projekt för att säkerställa kontinuitet i ansträngningarna för durraförbättring och förbättra den sociala effekten av forskningen. Vi kommer att tillämpa Rapid Appraisal of Agricultural Innovation Systems, avancerad avelsteknik för att dissekera genetisk grund för Striga-resistensmekanismer och introducera resistensegenskaper från vilda släktingar till durrasorter som jordbrukarna föredrar, och introducera Climate Smart-Agriculture (CSA) för Strigas förvaltning. 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.

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. Vi kommer att angripa frågeställningarna i detta tvärvetenskapliga forskningsprojekt med forskare inom flera olika områden: markvetenskap, husdjursvetenskap, ekologi, samhällsvetenskap och ekonomi.

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.

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.

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. Även om landet har gjort vissa framsteg i minskad barna- och mödradödlighet, har den psykiska hälsan varit ett försummat område framför allt hos barn och ungdomar. Även om det inte finns tillförlitliga siffror om psykisk ohälsa så beräknas var tredje person ha någon form av psykisk ohälsa där barn utgör mer än en tredjedel av befolkningen. Det är särskilt viktigt att specifikt beforska barns och ungdomars psykiska hälsa i kontexter där psykiska problem stigmatiseras. Att bidra till relevant kunskap är en förutsättning för utveckling och anpassning av kulturanpassade interventioner. Ur ett rättviseperspektiv utgör psykiska hälsa en grundläggande mänsklig rättighet. Dessutom bidrar förbättring av barns och ungdomars psykiska hälsa till att främja flera av hållbara utvecklingsmålen. Den övergripande forskningsidén är att kartlägga förekomsten och bördan av psykisk ohälsa bland barn och ungdomar i Somaliland. Vidare, att förstå psykisk ohälsa ur ett kulturellt perspektiv och undersöka hur en insats som främjar psykiska hälsa hos barn och ungdomar i Somaliland kan utvecklas, implementeras och utvärderas.Projektet tar sin utgångspunkt i ett co-produktions och ömsesidigt partnerskap och är i linje med strategin för Sveriges internationella utvecklingssamarbete med Somalia 2018-2022 och den nya reviderade nationella policy om psykiska hälsa i Somaliland. Det är inte endast de två institutionerna som kommer att vara involverad i forskningsagenda utan lokala myndigheten, brukarorganisationer, hälsoministeriet samt FN-organisationer. Det långsiktiga målet med projektet är att tillhandahålla forskningsresultat som kommer att bidra till kulturanpassade insatser för att främja psykiska hälsa hos barn och ungdomar men också policy rekommendationer.

Det är särskilt viktigt att specifikt beforska barns och ungdomars psykiska hälsa i kontexter där psykiska problem stigmatiseras. Att bidra till relevant kunskap är en förutsättning för utveckling och anpassning av kulturanpassade interventioner. Ur ett rättviseperspektiv utgör psykiska hälsa en grundläggande mänsklig rättighet. Dessutom bidrar förbättring av barns och ungdomars psykiska hälsa till att främja flera av hållbara utvecklingsmålen. Den övergripande forskningsidén är att kartlägga förekomsten och bördan av psykisk ohälsa bland barn och ungdomar i Somaliland. Vidare, att förstå psykisk ohälsa ur ett kulturellt perspektiv och undersöka hur en insats som främjar psykiska hälsa hos barn och ungdomar i Somaliland kan utvecklas, implementeras och utvärderas.Projektet tar sin utgångspunkt i ett co-produktions och ömsesidigt partnerskap och är i linje med strategin för Sveriges internationella utvecklingssamarbete med Somalia 2018-2022 och den nya reviderade nationella policy om psykiska hälsa i Somaliland. Det är inte endast de två institutionerna som kommer att vara involverad i forskningsagenda utan lokala myndigheten, brukarorganisationer, hälsoministeriet samt FN-organisationer. Det långsiktiga målet med projektet är att tillhandahålla forskningsresultat som kommer att bidra till kulturanpassade insatser för att främja psykiska hälsa hos barn och ungdomar men också policy rekommendationer.

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.

India is now increasingly seen as a “pre-conception assemblage hub”, where embryos are created and implanted into surrogates who carry their pregnancies to term in countries with no protective legislation. The study will focus on surrogacy and the related practices of oocyte donation and breast milk provision, and linkages between India and the emerging fertility markets in East Africa, with a particular focus on Uganda. Feminist theories of work, political economy and social reproduction theory constitute the theoretical framing of the project, operationalised through mixed qualitative methods in Gujarat and Kampala. The key aim is to provide new knowledge on emerging gendered forms of labour in a rapidly expanding global bio-economy. By analyzing how the current legal landscape in India creates new transnational economies of exploitation, impacting some of the world’s most vulnerable populations, our study offers valuable insights into the mechanisms and implications of technological diffusion, not the least in relation to global inequalities. But the relevance of the project is even broader, given the central role of female reproductive tissues and processes in biotechnologies, which drives the expanding global markets in bodies and body parts. Nya reproduktiva teknologier som IVF, äggdonation och surrogatmödraskap har gjort det möjligt för miljontals människor att bli föräldrar. Samtidigt är tillgången till sådana teknologier påfallande ojämnt fördelad: emedan de högsta nivåerna av ofrivillig barnlöshet finns bland världens fattiga är det huvudsakligen de mest privilegierade skikten av världens befolkning som har möjlighet att utnyttja dessa teknologier. 2020 infördes en lag som förbjuder kommersiellt surrogatmödraskap i Indien, som sedan början av 2000-talet kommit att bli ett av surrogatindustrins globala centrum. Projektet tar avstamp i denna lagändring för att utforska hur den indiska reproduktionsindustrin navigerar runt förbudet genom att omstrukturera sin verksamhet i Indien samtidigt som delar av verksamheten flyttas till länder utan lagstiftning, vilket även innebär möjligheter till expansion på nya marknader. Vi kommer att undersöka spridningen till Östafrika, med fokus på Uganda och dess begynnande, oreglerade reproduktionsmarknad. I centrum för uppmärksamheten står surrogatmödrar, äggdonatorer och bröstmjölksdonatorer – de kvinnor som förser industrin med könsceller och processer utan vilka industrins expansion inte vore möjlig.Den nya bioindustrin har skapat kvalitativt nya former av arbete som exempelvis surrogatmödraskap, där mervärde skapas genom kroppsliga processer. Samtidigt är dessa former av arbete kodade som naturligt kvinnliga och har genom historien nedvärderats och osynliggjorts. Genom att analysera dessa som reproduktivt arbete vill vi bidra till att de synliggörs och uppvärderas. Därmed inte sagt att företeelser som surrogatmödraskap är ett arbete som alla andra. Samtidigt är det svårt att blunda för en samtida verklighet där sådant som tidigare varit fredat från marknadens logik nu finns till försäljning. Den tidigare forskningen är överens om att hudfärg är det enskilt viktigaste kriteriet vid köp av mänskliga ägg, och avgörande för priset, vilket är ett handfast uttryck för denna realitet. I projektet undersöker vi hur det går till när förkroppsligade processer och substanser som graviditet, äggceller och bröstmjölk görs till varor på en global marknad.Vi hämtar teoretiska perspektiv från feministisk forskning som analyserar reproduktivt arbete i relation till värde och värdeskapande inom en kapitalistisk ekonomi. Med fokus på Indien och Uganda utforskar studien nya företeelser och flöden i den globala reproduktionsindustrin. Från att ha varit ett globalt centrum för kommersiella surrogatarrangemang har äggindustrin kommit att bli alltmer viktig i Indien. Landet har förvandlats till ett centrum där ägg plockas ut och embryon skapas, för att föras över i surrogatmödrar som sedan fraktas till länder utan lagstiftning där de tillbringar sin tid som gravida och föder barnen. Vi kommer också att undersöka kopplingen mellan den kommodifiering av bröstmjölk som sker inom surrogatarrangemang och framväxten av kommersiella bröstmjölksmarknader.Studien vill bidra till förståelsen av den snabbt expanderande globala marknaden för kroppar och kroppsliga processer, i synnerhet för hur kvinnors reproduktiva kapacitet blir till en vinstgenererande resurs. På så vis kan vi också ge insikter i globaliseringsprocesser inom det globala Syd. Projektets övergripande syfte är att bidra med ny kunskap om könade arbetsformer inom den snabbt växande bioekonomin. Genom att utforska hur ett förändrat regelverk i Indien ger upphov till nya exploaterande ekonomier kan vi bidra med kunskap om de mekanismer som driver teknologiers spridning i en globaliserad värld, inte minst i relation till globala orättvisor. Det är kunskap som vi också hoppas kan komma till konkret användning i det brådskande pågående arbetet med att utforma såväl nationella som internationella regleringar.

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. Samarbetet är tvärvetenskapligt och har kompletterande kompetenser inom både fysik och kemi, något som är avgörande för projektets mål.Att öka andelen förnybar energi, fördubbla den globala förbättringstakten vad gäller energieffektivitet samt stärka det internationella samarbetet är viktiga delmål för en ”hållbar energi för alla”, mål 7 inom FN:s globala mål för hållbar utveckling. 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. Billig solcellsteknik kan därför vara en väsentlig del för att nå FN:s globala mål.

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. Samarbetet är tvärvetenskapligt och har kompletterande kompetenser inom både fysik och kemi, något som är avgörande för projektets mål.Att öka andelen förnybar energi, fördubbla den globala förbättringstakten vad gäller energieffektivitet samt stärka det internationella samarbetet är viktiga delmål för en ”hållbar energi för alla”, mål 7 inom FN:s globala mål för hållbar utveckling. 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. Billig solcellsteknik kan därför vara en väsentlig del för att nå FN:s globala mål.

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.

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.

In seven years, these investments have resulted in an area change from zero to over 5,000 ha of cultivation, touching the life of some 10,000 rural households.  This project proposal, building on previous achievement and for which we are applying herein, will coronate these efforts by fully validating the genomic selection pipeline, with the set goal of doubling the area of cultivation. Furthermore, we will seek the integration of female cooperatives to operate as community-based seed enterprises supporting the scaling of these technologies, while generating employment and rural income. Finally, we aim to achieve scientific excellent by using the latest molecular tools to attempt the fine mapping and possible cloning of the major locus we identified as controlling heat tolerance. Overall, this proposed research-for-development brings novelty and impact in farmers lives, truly bringing to fruition the investments done so far. 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.

In seven years, these investments have resulted in an area change from zero to over 5,000 ha of cultivation, touching the life of some 10,000 rural households.  This project proposal, building on previous achievement and for which we are applying herein, will coronate these efforts by fully validating the genomic selection pipeline, with the set goal of doubling the area of cultivation. Furthermore, we will seek the integration of female cooperatives to operate as community-based seed enterprises supporting the scaling of these technologies, while generating employment and rural income. Finally, we aim to achieve scientific excellent by using the latest molecular tools to attempt the fine mapping and possible cloning of the major locus we identified as controlling heat tolerance. Overall, this proposed research-for-development brings novelty and impact in farmers lives, truly bringing to fruition the investments done so far. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. 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.

Undernäring är en av de största riskfaktorer som skapar en stigande global icke-överförbar sjukdomsbörda.Kassava (Manihot esculenta) med sina stärkelserika rötter är den viktigaste tropiska rotfrukten då den ger kostenergi för mer än 800 miljoner människor i de subtropiska områdena. Kassava är tyvärr näringsfattig och i sig en potentiell källa till undernäring.De framsteg som gjorts inom kassava-forskning för att ta itu med dessa problem har på något sätt varit ojämna. Det finns en kontinuerlig utveckling inom bioteknologiska verktyg å ena sidan, men ett betydande vakuum av grundläggande kunskap om hur man tillämpar dessa å andra sidan. För att stödja ökningen av grundläggande kunskaper inom kassava-forskning föreslår vi ett nätverk av specialister i Europa och Afrika. På så visst skapas ett samhälle av forskare från flera afrikanska länder som arbetar med att dechiffrera genfunktioner och viktiga genetiskt kodade egenskaper för att driva moderna avelsprogram som använder genetiska tillvägagångssätt som exempelvis ”CRISPR / cas9” tekniken. Teknik som behöver betydligt mer detaljerad information för att kunna tillämpas på ett säkert och effektivt sätt.Syftet med nätverket är inte bara att producera data utan att även investera i utbildning av unga forskare. Utbildningen kommer att tillhandahålla den avancerade kunskap som behövs för att utforma och analysera de stora datamängder som modern bioteknologi genererar. Utbildning och träning som kommer att göra det möjligt för dessa forskare att framgångsrikt och på ett mer effektivt sätt bedriva sina egna forskningsprojekt i framtiden kunna skapa en forskningsgemenskap inom fältet.

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. Afrika har i dag ca 1.3 miljarder invånare och har en snabb befolkningsökning. Fram till 2050 förväntas befolkningen stiga till 2,5 miljdarder och fram till 2100 till fyra miljarder. Med nuvarande användning av PC i betong kommer Afrikas stora byggbehov att bidra till kraftigt ökande koldioxidutsläpp. Samtidigt är boende en mänsklig rättighet.I Afrika söder om Sahara är behovet av boende en akut fråga. I Uganda, som ett exempel på ett låg-inkomstland i östra Afrika, uppskattas ett underskott på bostäder till ca 2,1 miljoner boenden. En siffra som växer med ca 200 000 enheter årligen. Samtidigt som en ständigt ökande befolkning är en orsak till det stora behovet av boende är det även en fråga om resurser att skaffa sig ett boende. I dag är det absolut vanligaste sättet att bygga bostäder på i sub-Sahara block-baserat. Lokala entreprenörer gjuter "6-inch blocks" med sand, cement och vatten. Cementen utgör mellan 5-10% av materialvikten men driver 50-80% av kostnaden och koldioxavtrycket av blocket. Genom att substituera bort cementen som bindemedel i blocket finns det möjlighet att minska både priset och det ekologiska fotavtrycket den för byggstenarna, väggarna och slutligen det färdiga huset. Det uppskattas att i den enklaste husmodellen, med väggar av block och ett enkelare plåttak, står blockkostnaden för ca 50-70% av byggkostnaden. Alternativa bindemedel har forskats på i många år men det brister i praktiska tillämpningar.

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.

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. Nätverket består av forskare från Kenya, Storbritannien och Sverige som alla har stor erfarenhet av forskning kring naturresurskonflikter i Öst- och Västafrika.

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. Nätverket består av forskare från Kenya, Storbritannien och Sverige som alla har stor erfarenhet av forskning kring naturresurskonflikter i Öst- och Västafrika. Vidare kommer dessutom ett forskningsinstitut i Sierra Leone samt en ledande Afrikansk miljörättsorganisation vara nära länkade till nätverket.

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.

We will identify the factors influencing climate resilience in a participatory process with farmers and relevant stakeholders. This will provide the basis for drawing preliminary generic conclusions, as a basis for our continued research applications. Through emphasis on interdisciplinary research across the natural science/social science divide, we aim to achieve a clearer understanding of the institutional possibilities and constraints influencing the extent to which farmers, communities, local governments and policy makers can include integrated land use in their efforts towards adapting and mitigating climate risk. Our long-term aim is that our research network can contribute methods development for interdisciplinary research, and lift individual case studies across the region to comparative analysis and drawing of more generic conclusions, also relevant for policy makers. Through conferences and interaction with other researchers in the region, we aim to stimulate a broader research exchange that can make a clear impact in bridging the sectoral and disciplinary divides, to achieve more climate-resilient landscapes in Southeast Asia. Vårt forskarsamarbete fokuserar på att utarbeta metoder för interdisciplinär forskning om markanvändning och produktionssystem i bergsområdena i Vietnam. Syftet är att få en djupare kunskap och förståelse av hur markanvändning och produktion kan bidra till mer klimatresiliens i levnadsförhållanden för de fattiga etniska minoriteterna ocm bor i bergsområdena. Vi ser samarbetet i Vietnam som en början, som sedan kan utvidgas till samarbete med andra länder i Sydostasien, där flera länder har liknande problematik, med extrem fattigdom bland de etniska minoriteterna i bergen. Vår tidigare forskning visar på ett starkt samband mellan risken för jordskred och våldsamma översvämningar vid de kraftiga stormregn som blir allt vanligare, och den segregerade markanvändningen - indelade i monokulturer av jordbruksgrödor å ena sidan och trädplantering å andra sidan. Vår forskning hittills visar också på positiva samband med integrerade jord-skogsbruksystem, och möjligheterna för bergsbefolkningen att hantera och återhämta sig från stormregnen. Vi vill fördjupa vår forskning genom detta interdisciplinära samarbete, som ska ge oss möjlighet att analysera de fallstudier som finns, för att intentifiera kontextspecifika faktorer, dvs faktorer som varierar beroende av geografiskt och socialt sammanhang. Målet är att öka kunskapen om de komplexa socio-ekonomiska faktorer som påverkar möjligheterna till framgångsrik ekologisk integrering av jord-och skogsbruk system, och andra former av integrerad markanvädning. Och därmed kunna bidra till utformingen av insatser som minskar sårbarheten och ökar resiliensen hos den fattiga bergsbefolkningen.

We will identify the factors influencing climate resilience in a participatory process with farmers and relevant stakeholders. This will provide the basis for drawing preliminary generic conclusions, as a basis for our continued research applications. Through emphasis on interdisciplinary research across the natural science/social science divide, we aim to achieve a clearer understanding of the institutional possibilities and constraints influencing the extent to which farmers, communities, local governments and policy makers can include integrated land use in their efforts towards adapting and mitigating climate risk. Our long-term aim is that our research network can contribute methods development for interdisciplinary research, and lift individual case studies across the region to comparative analysis and drawing of more generic conclusions, also relevant for policy makers. Through conferences and interaction with other researchers in the region, we aim to stimulate a broader research exchange that can make a clear impact in bridging the sectoral and disciplinary divides, to achieve more climate-resilient landscapes in Southeast Asia. Vårt forskarsamarbete fokuserar på att utarbeta metoder för interdisciplinär forskning om markanvändning och produktionssystem i bergsområdena i Vietnam. Syftet är att få en djupare kunskap och förståelse av hur markanvändning och produktion kan bidra till mer klimatresiliens i levnadsförhållanden för de fattiga etniska minoriteterna ocm bor i bergsområdena. Vi ser samarbetet i Vietnam som en början, som sedan kan utvidgas till samarbete med andra länder i Sydostasien, där flera länder har liknande problematik, med extrem fattigdom bland de etniska minoriteterna i bergen. Vår tidigare forskning visar på ett starkt samband mellan risken för jordskred och våldsamma översvämningar vid de kraftiga stormregn som blir allt vanligare, och den segregerade markanvändningen - indelade i monokulturer av jordbruksgrödor å ena sidan och trädplantering å andra sidan. Vår forskning hittills visar också på positiva samband med integrerade jord-skogsbruksystem, och möjligheterna för bergsbefolkningen att hantera och återhämta sig från stormregnen.

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. The project will have close contact with Rwandan forest authorities and NGOs and organize annual workshops for stakeholders to evaluate impacts on ecosystem services.

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.

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. Projektet kommer att bedriva följande forskningsfrågor: Vad avgör informella arbetares tillgång till stödpaket som skapats för att underlätta återhämtning och mildra de ekonomiska effekterna av pandemin? Vilka initiativ har dykt upp under pandemin för att ta itu med brist på försäljningsinfrastrukturer (sanitet, korrekta bås etc.)? Vilka nya krav formulerar informella arbetare eventuellt inom ramen för pandemin? Projektet kommer att tillämpa kvalitativa metoder och undersöka dessa dynamiker i fyra afrikanska städer: Dar-es-Salaam (Tanzania), Kitwe (Zambia), Blantyre (Malawi) och Accra (Ghana).

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. Projektet kommer att bedriva följande forskningsfrågor: Vad avgör informella arbetares tillgång till stödpaket som skapats för att underlätta återhämtning och mildra de ekonomiska effekterna av pandemin? Vilka initiativ har dykt upp under pandemin för att ta itu med brist på försäljningsinfrastrukturer (sanitet, korrekta bås etc.)? Vilka nya krav formulerar informella arbetare eventuellt inom ramen för pandemin?

Specifically, we will use detailed survey data to investigate the impact of the spread of ICT on literacy and educational attainment and explore the mechanisms at play, utilizing within as well as across household variation to identify the possible effects. We will also use unique schooling data to assess the effects on teacher quality and effort, the employment of IT-tools in schools, and student test scores. To this end, we will draw on detailed geospatial data on ICT infrastructure and the outcomes of interest, allowing for the use of quasi-experimental statistical techniques, coupled with insights from key informant interviews with stakeholders in ICT development projects in the region. In 2022, we will compile data and initiate the data analysis. In 2023, we will carry out the bulk of the empirical analysis. In 2024, we will complete all outstanding parts of the research and disseminate the results. Unlike most previous work in the area, we will be able to differentiate between 2G, 3G/4G and fiber cable infrastructure, which have critically different implications in terms of the inputs in the educational production function. As such, the project will also inform the ongoing debate on the gap between education and learning, which is arguably especially relevant in Sub-Saharan Africa. Gender considerations are central to this project. A core objective of the project is to investigate the impact of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) on educational inequalities in Sub-Saharan Africa. Considering the existing strong disparities in mobile internet adoption between groups, with women and people in rural areas lagging behind (GSMA, 2020), a gender perspective is of key importance. In a first step, we will track the spread of ICT in Sub-Saharan Africa. This analysis will include mapping digital inequalities, such as gender gaps, in access to 2G, 3G/4G and fiber cable network coverage in the area of residence, as well as in the actual use of these technologies. When investigating the impact of the spread of ICT on educational outcomes, we will consistently assess gendered impacts. Carefully evaluating possible differential impacts across girls and boys will clarify if, when, and where digital development enhances gender inequalities in educational outcomes, and thus where efforts to counteract this tendency are needed. It also sheds light on under what circumstances digital development may instead act as an engine for change, helping to offset inequalities. Our gender focus is clearly visible in the research plan. In ‘Purpose and aims’, we establish our aim to assess feedback mechanisms between digital divides and inequalities in educational outcomes. Here, gender is specified as a key inequality dimension. And in ‘Theory and data’ we specify the data and approach that will be used to address these issues empirically. I Afrika söder om Sahara har spridningen av mobiltelefoni och mobilt internet skett mot bakgrund av en tidigare mycket begränsad kommunikationsinfrastruktur. Just därför anses de senaste årens snabba utveckling av digital informations- och kommunikationsteknik (IKT) ha haft betydande ekonomiska och sociala effekter för regionens befolkning, särskilt bland de fattigaste.Under den pågående Covid-19-pandemin har beroendet av internet accentuerats på global nivå och användningen av digital teknik har påskyndats inom utbildningsområdet. Möjligheterna till kvalitetssäkrad undervisning på distans skiljer sig dock kraftigt åt mellan och inom länder. Fortfarande saknar hälften av alla världens barn i grundskolan och gymnasiet internetanslutning hemma, och nästan hälften av de som bor i områden som saknar internetuppkoppling bor i Afrika söder om Sahara. Inom de afrikanska länderna finns det också betydande skillnader i mobilnätsteckning och internettillgång längs dimensioner som socioekonomisk status, kön och ålder.Även om pandemin har gett betydelsen av IKT inom utbildningsområdet en ökad uppmärksamhet så är frågan mycket bredare än så och har diskuterades livligt under lång tid. Inom akademin såväl som i policykretsar har man exempelvis noterat hur satsningar på utbildning inte lett till önskade resultat i form av verkligt lärande, och vissa ser den nya tekniken som en möjlighet att kringgå de bindande begränsningar som verkar finnas inom utbildningsväsendet i många låginkomstländer. Det finns dock ingen anledning att förvänta sig att spridningen av IKT har samma inverkan på utbildningsresultaten för alla som får tillgång till denna teknik. Dessutom kan vissa individer eller grupper halka efter, eller till och med missgynnas, även om effekterna visade sig vara positiva i genomsnitt.Det övergripande syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka hur spridningen av IKT i Afrika söder om Sahara påverkar utbildningsresultat och ojämlikhet i utbildningsresultat i regionen. I projektet görs åtskillnad mellan utvecklingen inom olika tekniska plattformar, såsom 2G, 3G/4G och fiberkabelinfrastruktur, då dessa skiljer sig fundamentalt åt vad gäller internethastighet och därmed möjligheter till interaktion och informationsdelning. Genom att knyta samman detaljerad geospatial data över utbyggnaden av IKT över tid med data över de fenomen vi ämnar studera kan vi använda oss av moderna kvasi-experimentella statistiska metoder som gör att resultaten når hög vetenskaplig kvalitet. Vi kommer dessutom att underbygga den statistiska analysen med insikter från intervjuer med nyckelaktörer i viktiga IKT-utvecklingsprojekt i regionen.Projektet relaterar till två aktuella forskningsområden. För det första har studier visat att i Afrika söder om Sahara har spridningen av IKT fått betydande politiska och ekonomiska konsekvenser. De indirekta effekterna av denna utveckling på utbildningsresultat har emellertid ännu inte analyserats inom detta forskningsfält. En annan grupp av studier visar att specifika IKT-investeringar inom utbildningsområdet sällan får positiva effekter i rika länder, men att de ofta har positiva effekter i låginkomstländer. Vårt forskningsprojekt blir det första som sammanför dessa två fält genom att beakta de breda transformativa effekter som spridningen av IKT potentiellt har på utbildningsresultat och ojämlikhet i utbildningsresultat i Afrika söder om Sahara.Kunskapen som kommer genereras inom detta projekt är relaterad till de globala målen för hållbar utveckling (SDG). De mest relevanta är målen om inkluderande utbildning av god kvalitet (SDG 4), jämställdhet (SDG 5) och minskad ojämlikhet (SDG 10), samt att uppnå allmän tillgång till internet i de minst utvecklade länderna (under SDG 9). Projektets resultat kommer belysa under vilka omständigheter digital utveckling verkar för inkluderande utveckling och när det riskerar bidra till fördjupade klyftor.

Cholera morbidity and mortality is highest in the north-east region of Nigeria, where healthcare delivery and uptake is poor. Frequent attacks on healthcare infrastructure and personnel from armed conflicts by the Boko Haram insurgency are a key reason. In this context, attaining the global target for cholera control remains out of reach, particularly given the impact on surveillance for cholera outbreak detection and monitoring.The overall purpose of this network is to build a common research platform for reducing the cholera burden in this fragile region of Nigeria. The specific objectives include:Strengthen a sustainable collaboration between Nigerian cholera researchers, KI to promote a longer-term health system strengthening in the area of cholera diagnostic in a fragile region of Nigeria through mutual capacity building.Bridge the diagnostic gap via a pilot study of novel easy to use point-of-care solutions in this context.Co-design and submit an application for a large-scale field evaluation of context-tested point-of-care solutions with government, community and practitioner partners.Implementation of these objectives will use a combination of workshops, desk-based review, key-informant interviews and survey of health facilities.

Cholera morbidity and mortality is highest in the north-east region of Nigeria, where healthcare delivery and uptake is poor. Frequent attacks on healthcare infrastructure and personnel from armed conflicts by the Boko Haram insurgency are a key reason. In this context, attaining the global target for cholera control remains out of reach, particularly given the impact on surveillance for cholera outbreak detection and monitoring.The overall purpose of this network is to build a common research platform for reducing the cholera burden in this fragile region of Nigeria. The specific objectives include:Strengthen a sustainable collaboration between Nigerian cholera researchers, KI to promote a longer-term health system strengthening in the area of cholera diagnostic in a fragile region of Nigeria through mutual capacity building.Bridge the diagnostic gap via a pilot study of novel easy to use point-of-care solutions in this context.Co-design and submit an application for a large-scale field evaluation of context-tested point-of-care solutions with government, community and practitioner partners.Implementation of these objectives will use a combination of workshops, desk-based review, key-informant interviews and survey of health facilities.

The project aims at creating sustainable One Health networks that improves surveillance and rapid disease detection, and enables quick links between veterinary and human health authorities to faster, risk-based decisions that can safeguard human health, taking into account food production and livelihoods.

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.

Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is a major public health problem there and it is also increasing in other parts of the world. 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. Vi planerar att samarbeta för att karakterisera parasiter från Bolivia och använda informationen för att utveckla bättre tester.

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.

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.

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.

Subsequently, the research problematises the notion of ‘epistemic injustice’ prevailing in the field of development, challenging ‘the way of knowing’ the severe poor and ‘the way of doing’ development with them. This entails a close examination of how the severe poor or marginalised are listened to, represented and targeted both by researchers and practitioners. Empirically, the research focuses on the bottom 2% of the extreme poor targeting the three most vulnerable groups (i.e. ethnic minority, disabled and older persons) who are prone to experience severe poverty more than others. Relying on four different novel and unique datasets from Bangladesh, the research will examine the individual, social and institutional processes of power that condition the agency of the severe poor. By focusing on ‘epistemic injustice’, the proposed research will contribute to emerging discussions and debates about decolonising development, an idea that has so far gained more traction in development theory than research practice. Overall, the research will make a direct contribution to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by advancing our knowledge to foster an alternative model of development that leaves no one behind. Syftet med det här projektet är ge ökad förståelse om makt och handlingsfrihet hos de mest extremt fattiga i deras livssituationer. Projektet uppnår syftet genom att kritiskt undersöka olika policys och utvecklingsprogram som fokuserar på dessa extremt fattiga. I detta arbete kommer projektet att problematisera dels de kunskapsbilder om extremt fattiga som dominerar inom utvecklingsforskning, dels det arbete som utförs i utvecklingsprojekt. För att problematisera kunskapsbilder och utvecklingsarbete kommer projektet att utgå från begreppet epistemisk orättvisa (”epistemic injustice”). Detta begrepp ger projektet möjligheter att identifiera tillfällen när mottagare av budskap (forskare och praktiker) nervärderar sändarnas (extremt fattiga) förmåga till förståelse av sina livssituationer eller trovärdigheten i deras berättelser om sina livssituationer. Fokus kommer att vara på hur forskning och utvecklingsprojekt lyssnar på, representerar och tilltalar de mest extremt fattiga.

Subsequently, the research problematises the notion of ‘epistemic injustice’ prevailing in the field of development, challenging ‘the way of knowing’ the severe poor and ‘the way of doing’ development with them. This entails a close examination of how the severe poor or marginalised are listened to, represented and targeted both by researchers and practitioners. Empirically, the research focuses on the bottom 2% of the extreme poor targeting the three most vulnerable groups (i.e. ethnic minority, disabled and older persons) who are prone to experience severe poverty more than others. Relying on four different novel and unique datasets from Bangladesh, the research will examine the individual, social and institutional processes of power that condition the agency of the severe poor.

In a cluster-randomised trial in Ethiopia and Guinea Bissau implementing a clinical scoring tool (TBscore), we recently showed a 4-fold increasein case detection rate in Ethiopia. Buidling on our network and clinical trial experience, we now plan to conduct a randomised trial in 2023-24 at health care facilities in Ethiopia and Guinea Bissau to evaluate an optimized diagnostic procedure (ODP) compared with standard care in an effort to enhance early case finding and treatment aiming for sustainable development in low resource settings by limiting TB associated mortality. The ODP consists of a step wise approach by analysing (i) smear microscopy and PCR in pooled sputum and a recently developed sputum free technique using face mask sampling, (ii) a clinical follow up where computer assisted chest X-ray evaluation will be followed by (iii) a benchtop sequencing technology adopted for field use (Oxford nanopore) combining mycobacterial metagenomics and a validated host transcriptomic signature (RISK6). The main outcomes are the the rate of patients diagnosed and treated for TB within one week compared to standard of care and the difference in diagnostic yield between face mask sampling and conventional sputum. Optimizing early diagnosis in treatment using nove strategies are essential to reach the goal of reducing TB world-wide.

The research questions are: i) how do feminist organizations in Bolivia and Ecuador mobilize and advocate for safe abortion? and ii) how can advocacy for safe abortion be strengthened?The tasks will be undertaken by building upon the theoretical and methodological concept of ‘narrative production’ through engagement with diverse feminist organizations in: i) co-constructing narratives through meetings with four to six feminist organizations in each country; ii) collectively discussing through national workshops, and iii) working together with these feminist organizations for advocacy and network creation. We will hold research meetings in each of the countries. The project will finish with a joint workshop in Bolivia, to which researchers and activists from other countries will also be invited. This collaboration centres around six researchers working in five research institutions in Bolivia, Ecuador and Sweden.

This project is to develop resource recovery from food-grade residuals in form of filamentous fungi for food production. These fungi are already used in Asian dishes as e.g. Indonesian tempeh or Japanese koji grown on e.g. soybeans. The project applicants are from Sweden (University of Borås, Chalmers University of Technology) and Indonesia (Gadjah Mada University, University of Lampung). These applicants have long experience in working with fungi. However, this project is defined to make a strong network between Sweden and Indonesia to further develop production of edible filamentous fungi from food grade residuals, and to produce fungal-based meat resembles from fungi. Relevant companies will also be involved to share their expertise and resources in order to achieve this goal. This collaborative project is expected to contribute to reduce the stunting as one major nutrition problem in Indonesia by providing a low-cost protein alternative. The scientific goals include (i) to develop a robust submerged liquid fermentation technology to produce mycoprotein from food grade by-products,(ii) to improve the texture of the mycoprotein to mimic meat fibers, (iii) to asses the nutritional values and safety of the mycoprotein as meat alternatives. The scientific results will be published in open access international journals. I Världen finns snart 8 miljarder människor som behöver mat bestående av proteinkällor. Å andra sidan har livsmedelsindustrin stor miljöpåverkan genom tex matrester som hamnar i deponi. Frågan är huruvida det går att återvinna matrester med svampar för att producera ny klimatsmart mat som också smakar bra? Forskarna i detta projekt har jobbat många år med svampodling och även matproduktion, men vill nu jobba tillsammans för att bidra till flera av de globala målen. Detta samarbetsprojekt syftar till att utveckla klimatsmart protein av trådsvampar som odlats i matrester. Den filamentösa svampbiomassan som ibland kallas mykoprotein har liknande proteinkvalitet som kött och kyckling men med betydligt lägre miljöpåverkan. Högskolan i Borås och Chalmers har jobbat i mer är 20 år med att utveckla kunskap och teknik för produktion av svampbiomassa från olika avfallsströmmar. Samtidigt har de indonesiska universiteten i detta projekt lång erfarenhet av att utveckla nya livsmedelsprodukter inklusive sensoriska konsumentstudier och andra sociala aspekter av ätbara trådsvampar. De har dock i nuläget brist på teknik för storskalig produktion av svampbiomassa. Kunskapen och tekniken som utvecklats av universiteten i detta projekt kommer att delas mellan olika industrier, verksamma inom palmolja och tempeh branscher i Indonesien. Genom att samverka mellan de olika experter och resurser i projektet kan detta samarbetsprojekt förväntas bidra till en minskad miljöpåverkan och samtidigt tillhandahålla ett billigt proteinalternativ  till Indonesien. Detta projekt bidrar också till att lösa miljöproblem orsakade av oönskad felaktig hantering av matavfall. Dessutom skulle livsmedelsföretag kunna få en extra inkomst genom att producera och sälja mykoproteinet. Detta projekt bidrar också till att få ökad kunskap om metaboliska vägar för att omvandla matrester till biomassa, och växtbaserade kemikalier för tvärbindningsmedel som kan efterlikna köttfiber med hög näringskvalitet.

This project is to develop resource recovery from food-grade residuals in form of filamentous fungi for food production. These fungi are already used in Asian dishes as e.g. Indonesian tempeh or Japanese koji grown on e.g. soybeans. The project applicants are from Sweden (University of Borås, Chalmers University of Technology) and Indonesia (Gadjah Mada University, University of Lampung). These applicants have long experience in working with fungi. However, this project is defined to make a strong network between Sweden and Indonesia to further develop production of edible filamentous fungi from food grade residuals, and to produce fungal-based meat resembles from fungi. Relevant companies will also be involved to share their expertise and resources in order to achieve this goal. This collaborative project is expected to contribute to reduce the stunting as one major nutrition problem in Indonesia by providing a low-cost protein alternative. The scientific goals include (i) to develop a robust submerged liquid fermentation technology to produce mycoprotein from food grade by-products,(ii) to improve the texture of the mycoprotein to mimic meat fibers, (iii) to asses the nutritional values and safety of the mycoprotein as meat alternatives. The scientific results will be published in open access international journals. I Världen finns snart 8 miljarder människor som behöver mat bestående av proteinkällor.

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.

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.

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.

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. Vi kommer att samla JE-patientprover och försöka förstå JEV-infektionen på molekylär nivå genom att bl.a. sekvensera alla RNA-transkript och kvantifiera tusentals proteiner.Sist, men inte minst, kommer vi att använda en så kallad "bottom up"-metod för att efterlikna JEV överföringscykler i laboratoriet. JEV-infektionerna kommer att överföras mellan grisceller och myggor. Efter det kommer vi att sekvensera det genetiska materialet för att se hur virus förändrats. När RNA-virus utvecklas kommer vissa specifika mutationer att dyka upp i olika situationer. Genom dessa studier av infektionscykler kommer vi att hitta de intressanta mutationerna av betydelse för framtida JEV-utbrott.Vårt projekt kommer att integrera genomisk epidemiologi med nyligen utvecklade evolutionära analyser och avancerad molekylär virologi genom att använda en "One Health"-metod med fokus på JEV-virulens, som syftar till att förbättra både djurs och människors hälsa.

In response, there has been growing attention to the situation of communities exposed to industrial pollution. Paradoxically, this has gone hand in hand with the scholarly disregard for the concomitant proliferation of domestic pollution in communities with no industrial activities but under colonial pressures. This study addresses this gap by exploring the case of Guarani communities in Bolivia. It does so applying a collaborative approach that confronts asymmetries between Indigenous and non-Indigenous knowledges and practices that contribute to the colonial enunciation, subalternation, and disruption of local sustainable lifeways. The aim is twofold: to provide a profound understanding of Indigenous discursive and practical approaches to pollution within present colonial contexts, and to determine the epistemological and social potential of collaborative research in relation to pollution issues. Theoretically situated at the intersection of political ontology and decolonial theory, this study proposes the use of ethnographic and Indigenous research-based methods. Apart from advancing ongoing debates on decolonial collaboration and pollution within Indigenous contexts, the study contributes to generating a more balanced production, circulation, and use of research. Den obevekliga spridningen av föroreningars i urbefolkningar territorier placerar urbefolkningar i frontlinjen för en av vår tids stora miljöutmaningar samtidigt som det avsevärt förvärrar deras utestängning och fattigdomsförhållanden. Som svar har det uppstått en tilltagande uppmärksamhet för situationen för ursprungsbefolkningar som utsätts för industriella föroreningar. Paradoxalt har detta gått hand i hand med den vetenskapliga likgiltigheten inför ökningen av inhemska miljöföroreningar i samhällen utan industriella aktiviteter men som samtidigt står under nyliberala och koloniala påtryckningar. Studien fokuserar på denna diskrepans genom att använda ett kollaborativt tillvägagångssätt som konfronterar det asymmetriska förhållandet mellan inhemskt och icke-inhemskt vetande och praktiker vilket bidrar till det koloniala förtrycket och skapar störningar i lokala levnadssätt.Syftet är tvåfaldigt: att erbjuda en djupgående förståelse för ursprungsbefolkningars diskursiva och praktiska tillvägagångssätt till inhemska miljöföroreningar inom nuvarande koloniala sammanhang, och att fastställa den epistemologiska och sociala potentialen av kollaborativ forskning i förhållande till frågor kring miljömässig degradering.Studien tillämpar en rad olika kvalitativa metoder.

This has two important consequences. First, yields are low, contributing to poverty and underdevelopment. Second, climate adaptation – which necessitates the adoption of new capital-intensive, low-emissions, robust approaches – is slowed.We argue that a crucial contributor to this problem is the learning problem. It is fundamentally hard for farmers to learn what are the optimal inputs for their farm. As a result, they may not learn at all.We propose a packaged program to solve this problem, Empowering Agriculturalists through Structured Experimentation (EASE). The goal is to teach farmers to conduct structured agricultural experiments on their own land, and document the results in a structured way. This can reveal what inputs work best for them. In essence, it empowers smallholder farmers to identify for themselves how best to run their farm, rather than having to rely on outside advisors or for-profit input suppliers.The project will evaluate the impact of the EASE program through a large-scale Randomized Controlled Trial in Eastern Uganda. We evaluate its impacts on learning about a new input, which the participants choose for themselves, as well as about how farmers adapt their general approach to learning and experimentation. By evaluating the impacts, as well as the costs of the program, we can develop a proven intervention ready to be offered at scale.

Det består av två delar:1. Utbildning i hur man utför strukturerade experiment genom att använda en ny insatsvara. 2.

The situation is particularly alarming in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), since easy-to-use tools for identifying AMR bacteria are lacking. The goal of this project is to develop and use two fluorescence microscope-based assays to detect carriage and infections of AMR bacteria. The project is a collaboration with the neonatal ward at Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) in Dar es-Salaam, Tanzania. Tanzania is one of ca 85 LMICs where simple fluorescence microscopes are used to diagnose tuberculosis. We will repurpose these microscopes for AMR detection assays, which means that there is no cost for infrastructure. We will focus on neonates because they are a highly vulnerable population prone to acquire hospital infections. We believe that interventions based on this project will have immediate clinical impact on neonatal care. However, the methods developed are applicable in any hospital ward. The first assay is based on PNA-FISH and can be used to identify AMR bacteria in complex samples. We will focus on detecting K. pneumoniae and E. coli in fecal samples. The second is a genetic analysis that will identify resistance genes in the detected bacteria. The project includes assay development in Sweden, a screen for AMR bacteria at the neonatal ward at MNH, teaching of the assays to MNH staff, and implementation of the assays for infection control interventions in the neonatal ward at MNH. Antibiotikaresistens är ett stort hot mot global hälsa. Problemen är alarmerande i låg-och-medelinkomstländer (LMICs) då effektiva metoder för att identifiera resistenta bakterier saknas. Förtidigt födda barn är extra känsliga för resistenta infektioner då dom har ett begränsat immunförsvar och dödligheten på neonatalavdelningar i LMICs är hög.En viktig del av att bekämpa resistenta bakterier är att utveckla metoder för att identifiera och karakterisera bakterier som är lämpliga i LMICs. En möjlig strategi är att utveckla nya metoder som använder utrustning som redan finns i de här länderna. Vi ska i detta projekt utnyttja att diagnostik av tuberkulos i många LMICs redan sker med enkel fluorescensmikroskopi.Vi ska utveckla två metoder. Den första metoden är baserad på att i avföringsprover identifiera om en patient är koloniserad av resistenta bakterier. Detta för att kunna isolera patienter som bär på farliga bakterier för att minimera spridning. Den andra metoden gör det möjligt att detektera de gener som gör bakterierna resistenta. Detta för att förstå hur bakterier sprider sig i sjukhusmiljön och minska framtida utbrott.Vi kommer att fokusera på E. coli och K. pneumoniae som är på WHOs lista över farliga bakterier som ofta är resistenta mot vanliga antibiotika. Vi kommer att implementera metoderna på neonatalavdelningen på Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) i Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. MNH har stor erfarenhet av internationella samarbeten och en neonatalläkare i projektet har 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. Prover som samlats in skickas till Sverige för optimering av metoderna. I nästa steg ska vi träna personal från MNH på metoderna, både i Sverige och på plats. Under tredje året används metoderna i klinisk rutin och bidra med en plan för hur spridning kan minimeras på neonatalavdelningen.

During the two years since the virus and the disease was first discovered, COVID-19 has by mid-March 2022 caused at least 480 million infections and 6.2 million deaths world-wide. The pandemic hit unevenly across the world population, with characteristics such as age, male sex, underlying conditions, and host genetics influencing the risk of developing severe disease. Interestingly, available data suggests that East African countries such as Uganda have been relatively less affected in terms of severe COVID-19 disease and mortality compared to many western countries, despite very limited and delayed vaccine availability. In this proposal, we hypothesize that pre-existing T cell immunity to coronaviruses gained before the pandemic may influence these patterns of susceptibility to severe COVID-19. To address this possibility, we will utilize the Ugandan arm of the RV329 African Cohort Study (AFRICOS), which has a retrospective longitudinal set of cryopreserved samples covering pre-pandemic and pandemic time-points. This cohort will also allow us to address the impact of HIV-1 infection on the characteristics of pre-existing immunity. We anticipate that the proposed experiments, together with the comprehensive clinical data collected in the AFRICOS study, will significantly enhance our understanding of the role of pre-existing T cell immunity to protect from severe COVID-19. COVID-19 har under de två åren som gått sedan sjukdomen och det nya viruset SARS-CoV-2 identifierades, orsakat mycket lidande världen över med hundratals miljoner infekterade och ett antal miljoner döda i sjukdomen. Trots att många länder i Afrika är hårt utsatta för infektionssjukdomar som malaria, HIV, och flera andra virussjukdomar, så har COVID-19 slagit mindre mot vissa länder särskilt i östra Afrika jämfört med länder i Europa och Amerika. Känsligheten för SARS-CoV-2 infektion och risken för svår COVID-19 sjukdom beror av många variabler, såsom ålder, kön, och andra kroniska sjukdomar. Skillnaden mellan östafrikanska länder som Uganda och Europeiska länder är dock för stor för att kunna förklaras enbart med dessa kända faktorer. I detta forskningsprojekt vill vi undersöka möjligheten att immunitet som existerade innan pandemins utbrott kan bidra till att minska risken för svår COVID-19 i den Ugandiska befolkningen. Det adaptiva immunsystemet som försvarar oss mot infektioner utgörs till stor del av två huvudsakliga celltyper, T celler och B celler. I detta projekt använder vi en longitudinell cohort med insamlade blodprover från 2013 och framåt för att särskilt undersöka förekomsten av T cells-medierad immunitet mot SARS-CoV-2 före pandemin. Vi hoppas att detta projekt kan ge ny kunskap som hjälper oss förstå motståndskraft mot svår COVID-19 med särskild relevans för östra Afrika.

During the two years since the virus and the disease was first discovered, COVID-19 has by mid-March 2022 caused at least 480 million infections and 6.2 million deaths world-wide. The pandemic hit unevenly across the world population, with characteristics such as age, male sex, underlying conditions, and host genetics influencing the risk of developing severe disease. Interestingly, available data suggests that East African countries such as Uganda have been relatively less affected in terms of severe COVID-19 disease and mortality compared to many western countries, despite very limited and delayed vaccine availability. In this proposal, we hypothesize that pre-existing T cell immunity to coronaviruses gained before the pandemic may influence these patterns of susceptibility to severe COVID-19. To address this possibility, we will utilize the Ugandan arm of the RV329 African Cohort Study (AFRICOS), which has a retrospective longitudinal set of cryopreserved samples covering pre-pandemic and pandemic time-points. This cohort will also allow us to address the impact of HIV-1 infection on the characteristics of pre-existing immunity. We anticipate that the proposed experiments, together with the comprehensive clinical data collected in the AFRICOS study, will significantly enhance our understanding of the role of pre-existing T cell immunity to protect from severe COVID-19. COVID-19 har under de två åren som gått sedan sjukdomen och det nya viruset SARS-CoV-2 identifierades, orsakat mycket lidande världen över med hundratals miljoner infekterade och ett antal miljoner döda i sjukdomen. Trots att många länder i Afrika är hårt utsatta för infektionssjukdomar som malaria, HIV, och flera andra virussjukdomar, så har COVID-19 slagit mindre mot vissa länder särskilt i östra Afrika jämfört med länder i Europa och Amerika. Känsligheten för SARS-CoV-2 infektion och risken för svår COVID-19 sjukdom beror av många variabler, såsom ålder, kön, och andra kroniska sjukdomar. Skillnaden mellan östafrikanska länder som Uganda och Europeiska länder är dock för stor för att kunna förklaras enbart med dessa kända faktorer. I detta forskningsprojekt vill vi undersöka möjligheten att immunitet som existerade innan pandemins utbrott kan bidra till att minska risken för svår COVID-19 i den Ugandiska befolkningen. Det adaptiva immunsystemet som försvarar oss mot infektioner utgörs till stor del av två huvudsakliga celltyper, T celler och B celler. I detta projekt använder vi en longitudinell cohort med insamlade blodprover från 2013 och framåt för att särskilt undersöka förekomsten av T cells-medierad immunitet mot SARS-CoV-2 före pandemin.

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.

In Uganda, a wide variety of febrile diseases and acute central nervous system infections are causing important issues for public health, particularly for children, where more than half of these syndromes remain undiagnosed. This is mainly due to (i) the breadth and diversity of aetiological agents originating from the environment, human population or animals; and (ii) the lack of knowledge and health infrastructure that can serve the community. This is a significant cause for concern, as many patients require critical care and long-term neurological sequelae are common among survivors. Therefore, partners from Sweden and Uganda will initiate a research network, where we (I) join forces and combine our current research efforts to create a One Health oriented team to study human health in the context of undiagnosed infectious diseases. This will also include (II) a NGS pilot study aimed at identification of known and potentially novel pathogens in Ugandan children with undiagnosed syndromes, but also including diagnostic development, and reciprocal technology and research knowledge-transfer.

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).

We explain differences in the role of taxes in reducing inequality across time and space and offer strategies that are more likely to stimulate wider development gains from taxation. The primary contribution and originality of the project is the study of power relationships and how different capacities for collective action shape the inequality-alleviation effects of taxes from the colonial era to the present.The project consists of one postdoctoral researcher and two senior researchers and is conducted over four years. Eight African countries are included for which we have already collected and/or have access to much of the requisite data. For each country we conduct an econometric analysis of the relationship between taxes and income distribution and differences in the performance of fiscal policy. We then proceed to construct historical analytical narratives of the political economy of taxation to identify context specific factors that underpin the relationship between taxation and income inequality.The project will provide a solid analysis that will be instrumental for donor agencies, policy makers and civil society actors who are today looking for the best way to translate increased taxation into more inclusive and sustainable development. Det är allmänt känt att hög inkomstojämlikhet försvårar fattigdomsbekämpning i Afrika. Det har lett både forskare och folk som arbetar med utvecklingsarbete att argumentera för behovet bland afrikanska regeringar att samla in mer skatter som kan spenderas för att reducera inkomstojämlikheter. Samtidigt finns det tecken på att ökade skatteintäkter i flera afrikanska länder inte har lett till minskad ojämlikhet. Fattiga och andra marginaliserade grupper får oftast bära den tyngsta skattebördan i afrikanska länder. Samtidigt får de lite tillbaka i form av tillgång på offentliga varor och tjänster. Det tyder på att problemet kanske inte är hur mycket skatter som afrikanska regeringar samlar in, utan brister i strategier kring hur skattemedel fördelas.Syftet med projektet är att identifiera de faktorer som möjliggör eller försvårar ett effektivt sätt att använda skattemedel för att minska inkomstojämlikheter i Afrika söder om Sahara.

This trend is in part driven by the spread of anti-vaccine information on social media. As this gains further traction, it could lead to a sharp increase in vaccine hesitancy rates and weaken confidence in other essential vaccines. The broader aim of this project is to monitor and respond to vaccine hesitancy among health workers and the population in four African countries. Targeting health workers is a good starting point to addressing vaccine hesitancy within their own networks since health workers are often severely affected by pandemics and health threats due to their occupational risk. Vaccines can protect health workers, the health system and the patients they care for. Health workers are also important for maintaining and building vaccine confidence in the wider community, given their roles in vaccine delivery, information giving and promotion. Therefore, they need to be seen as trusted and important allies in building nationwide vaccine confidence for existing and emerging vaccines. The aim of this project is to develop a network across four African countries (Benin, Ethiopia, Nigeria and Uganda) that are experiencing vaccine hesitancy among health workers and the population amid the COVID-19 vaccine roll-out. The network shall further serve as a platform to explore various research questions with the aim to jointly develop a research proposal. Utvecklingen av Covid-19 vaccinet och den massvaccinationskampanj som följde har kastat ljus över problemet med vaccintveksamhet, inte minst i Afrika. Ökad tveksamhet har delvis drivits av sociala medier där anti-vaccininformation fått stor spridning. Om vaccintveksamheten fortsätter att öka riskerar det att urholka förtroendet även för andra viktiga vacciner. Flera studier har visat på utbredd vaccintveksamhet bland hälsoarbetare i Afrika. Det bredare syftet med projektet är att studera och bemöta vaccintveksamhet bland hälsoarbetare och den bredare befolkningen i fyra afrikanska länder. Ökad vaccinacceptans bland hälsoarbetare ge en ringar-på-vattnet effekt.

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.

The longevity of anti-malarial immunity in populations experiencing malaria control and successful elimination is largely unexplored. In Vanuatu, scaled-up interventions have resulted in sustained elimination on some islands for varying periods and focal transmission of different intensities on other islands. This gradient in malaria risk and exposure provides a model to study the maintenance of immune memory in a natural setting. In collaboration with Divine Word University and the Ministry of Health in Vanuatu, we will establish the Center for Malaria Elimination to conduct research that helps to assess the risk of malaria resurgence on islands where populations may have waning immunity. Through this partnership we will conduct community outreach, develop field protocols for sample collection and transport, and perform initial sample analyses.

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.

This crop serves as the primary energy source, protein, vitamins, and trace minerals for millions of people in this country. Unfortunately, sorghum production is mainly constrained by several biotic and abiotic stresses, particularly from occasional drought and heat stress. A high-yield hybrid with improved drought resilience is urgently needed to improve productivity and maintain stable profit margins among small-scale farmers. However, hybrid sorghum has not been widely adopted in Sudan, mainly due to poor adaptation and the lack of farmer-preferred traits in existing hybrids. Feterita is a unique breeding pool for sorghum improvement that only existed in Sudan. Over 40 million resource-poor people in marginal environments rely on cultivating this breeding pool for traditional food and drink. Hence, this project aims to identify complementary parental pools (B and A lines) using feterita germplasm to overcome the limitations of the introduced A/B lines and develop the first hybrid through a) Developing and validating KASP markers with fertility restorer genes; b) Marker-assisted backcrossing to develop and validate A1 and A2 elite cytoplasmic male sterility; c) Estimation of genetic diversity and population structure of early-maturing sorghum feterita; d) Exploring heterosis in feterita lines for increased productivity in contrasting environments; and e) Enhance the capacity of Sudan´s institutions. Livsmedelssystem i Sudan präglas av osäkerhet både i termer av tillgänglighet, användning och hållbarhet hos livsmedlen, och behovet av lösningar är stort både på kort, medellång och lång sikt. Runt 9.8 miljoner människor (ca 21% av befolkningen) i Sudan upplever starkt bristande livsmedelssäkerhet med svårigheter att få tag i mat för dagen, och därmed finns det stora behov av att utveckla livsmedelsproduktionen. Jordbrukssystemen och tillgängligheten av grödor som kan producera mat för de fattiga i de torra landsbygdssamhällena behöver utvecklas snarast. Sorghum är en gröda som är väl adapterad till Afrika och som ger bra avkastning även under relativt torra förhållanden. I Sudan är sorghum den största grödan i förhållande till avkastning och odlad yta. Under 1970-talet påbörjades ett hybridförädlingsprogram i Sudan för att utveckla hybridsorghum lämpligt för odling i Sudan. Hybriderna som producerades gav högre avkastning än den sorghum som traditionellt odlades i Sudan. Hybridsorterna har dock aldrig använts i någon högre grad av de fattiga lantbrukarna i Sudan. Hybridsorterna utvecklades för att prestera i mekaniserade och bevattnade jordbrukssystem med hög insats. De lämpade sig alltså inte för de jordbrukssystem som praktiseras hos sudanesiska självförsörjande bönder och deras förhållandevis korta strån och små frön gjorde dem inte heller lämpade för produktion av växtbiomassa och livsmedel. Istället har s.k. feterita-sorter och lantraser använts i stor utsträckning av sudanesiska fattiga och självförsörjande bönder för sin goda torktolerans, höga näringsvärden, skördeförmåga och anpassning till låga insatsförhållanden. Detta projekt syftar till att använda konventionell och avancerad teknologi för att utveckla hybridförädling som bygger på användandet av de outnyttjade sorghum feterita genotyperna. Det genetiska materialet och kunskapen som etableras kommer att tillgängliggöras för hybridförädling i Sudan och Afrika för att övervinna framtida utmaningar.

Unfortunately, sorghum production is mainly constrained by several biotic and abiotic stresses, particularly from occasional drought and heat stress. A high-yield hybrid with improved drought resilience is urgently needed to improve productivity and maintain stable profit margins among small-scale farmers. However, hybrid sorghum has not been widely adopted in Sudan, mainly due to poor adaptation and the lack of farmer-preferred traits in existing hybrids. Feterita is a unique breeding pool for sorghum improvement that only existed in Sudan. Over 40 million resource-poor people in marginal environments rely on cultivating this breeding pool for traditional food and drink. Hence, this project aims to identify complementary parental pools (B and A lines) using feterita germplasm to overcome the limitations of the introduced A/B lines and develop the first hybrid through a) Developing and validating KASP markers with fertility restorer genes; b) Marker-assisted backcrossing to develop and validate A1 and A2 elite cytoplasmic male sterility; c) Estimation of genetic diversity and population structure of early-maturing sorghum feterita; d) Exploring heterosis in feterita lines for increased productivity in contrasting environments; and e) Enhance the capacity of Sudan´s institutions. Livsmedelssystem i Sudan präglas av osäkerhet både i termer av tillgänglighet, användning och hållbarhet hos livsmedlen, och behovet av lösningar är stort både på kort, medellång och lång sikt. Runt 9.8 miljoner människor (ca 21% av befolkningen) i Sudan upplever starkt bristande livsmedelssäkerhet med svårigheter att få tag i mat för dagen, och därmed finns det stora behov av att utveckla livsmedelsproduktionen. Jordbrukssystemen och tillgängligheten av grödor som kan producera mat för de fattiga i de torra landsbygdssamhällena behöver utvecklas snarast. Sorghum är en gröda som är väl adapterad till Afrika och som ger bra avkastning även under relativt torra förhållanden. I Sudan är sorghum den största grödan i förhållande till avkastning och odlad yta. Under 1970-talet påbörjades ett hybridförädlingsprogram i Sudan för att utveckla hybridsorghum lämpligt för odling i Sudan. Hybriderna som producerades gav högre avkastning än den sorghum som traditionellt odlades i Sudan. Hybridsorterna har dock aldrig använts i någon högre grad av de fattiga lantbrukarna i Sudan. Hybridsorterna utvecklades för att prestera i mekaniserade och bevattnade jordbrukssystem med hög insats. De lämpade sig alltså inte för de jordbrukssystem som praktiseras hos sudanesiska självförsörjande bönder och deras förhållandevis korta strån och små frön gjorde dem inte heller lämpade för produktion av växtbiomassa och livsmedel. Istället har s.k. feterita-sorter och lantraser använts i stor utsträckning av sudanesiska fattiga och självförsörjande bönder för sin goda torktolerans, höga näringsvärden, skördeförmåga och anpassning till låga insatsförhållanden. Detta projekt syftar till att använda konventionell och avancerad teknologi för att utveckla hybridförädling som bygger på användandet av de outnyttjade sorghum feterita genotyperna. Det genetiska materialet och kunskapen som etableras kommer att tillgängliggöras för hybridförädling i Sudan och Afrika för att övervinna framtida utmaningar.

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.

Detta projekt kommer särskilt att övervaka 900 odlade avokadoträd samt fröplantor under fyra år. Hetfläckar av agrikulturell biologisk mångfald såsom dessa erbjuder inte enbart ett exempellöst långsiktigt evolutionärt experiment för att ta itu med djupa frågor inom evolution och ekologi.

The present project aims to develop: 1) locally adapted good quality and high yielding beans, and 2) novel processing technologies of beans, to sustain food security and enhance nutrients and micronutrients in food in Uganda. The project is focusing on the use of the most recent marker-assisted selection methods (e.g. GBS and GWAS) in combination with modern innovative processing methods (e.g. ultrasonication) to: i) improve drought tolerance in beans, ii) improve nutritional composition of proteins and microelements, and organoleptic properties (taste) of bean food, iii) develop the innovation agro-platforms for delivering nutritious high quality food in a varying climate. This project will contribute with the most novel and high impact methods so far available to improve food security and nutrition, and will help secure food products, highly appreciated by the African consumer. The innovative agro-platforms will sustain development of promising drought tolerant protein-rich bean types suited for local farms in Uganda. In the long-term, this project will contribute food security and health benefits to the African population across the continent. Bönor är ett baslivsmedel i Uganda och bidrar i den dagliga kosten med proteiner, fibrer, vitaminer och mikronäringsämnen som järn och zink. Odlare i Uganda är benägna att testa nya sorter av bönor och hoppas alltid att dessa ska ge bättre avkastning och smaka bra. Covid-19, i kombination med extrem torka under senare år har emellertid resulterat i minskad avkastning och lägre kvalitet hos bönorna, vilket har lett till osäkerhet i produktionen och till och med till undernäring i vissa folkgrupper.Genom växtförädling, där de senaste genomiska metoderna används, så skulle den traditionella Ugandiska (Afrikanska) bönan kunna utvecklas till att bli en ”superväxt” som tål framtidens klimat, samtidigt som den har förmåga att producera högnutritionella bönor av tillräcklig mängd. Ett sådant scenario skulle då bidra till ett ökat välmående hos de Ugandiska konsumenterna. Vidare, så behöver nya processmetoder för bönor utvecklas, som ökar tillgängligheten vid humankosnumption av aminosyror från proteinerna och mikronäringsämnen som finns i bönorna. Ultrasonikering är en icke-invasiv metod som både bidrar till att tillgängliggöra nutritionella komponenter vid humankonsumption och som också ökar smakligheten hos livsmedel eftersom den påverkar gel- och texturegenskaperna på ett positivt sätt. Här föreslår vi ett projekt som ska bidra med både nya växtförädlingstekniker för utvekling av en ”superböna” som kan producera högnutritionella bönor och tåler framtidens klimat i Uganda, och nya processmetoder för att, vid humankonsumption, tillgängliggöra de nutritionella komponenterna som finns i superbönan.Vi kommer även att utveckla en ny approach inom projektet, genom att använda oss av agro-plattformar för att säkerställa lokal distribution och produktion av superbönan. Dessa kommer att säkerställa att superbönan, inklusive dess lämpliga processmetoder kommer att bidra till minskad undernäring och ökad livemedelssäkerhet i Uganda, och i ett längre perspektiv till Afrika.

It aims to explore the content of gendered traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) around wetlands and also identify forms, pathways and processes through which this gendered TEK can be utilized for policy and action towards restoration, conservation and management of wetlands. 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.

Wetlands are an important NBS that support water sustainability through multiple pathways and given a worsening context of degraded and disappearing wetlands, and water quality and quantity-related challenges in global South, water-related sustainability becomes the key to poverty reduction and sustainable development. The research will be carried out through a comparative case study analysis based in India where 3 case studies located in diverse geo-climatic and hydro-ecological settings will be explored through an empirical multi-disciplinary methodology combining ethnographic community-based research with participatory GIS and other tools.

Projektet handlar om användningen av våtmarker som naturbaserade lösningar (nature-based solutions, NBS) i global syd. Syftet är att utforska genusbaserad traditionell ekologisk kunskap (TEK) om våtmarker som möjliggör NBS för vattenrelaterad hållbar utveckling i låginkomstländer. NBS är inspirerade och stöds av naturen och använder eller efterliknar naturliga processer för förbättrad hantering av vatten. De erbjuder samtidigt miljömässiga, sociala och ekonomiska fördelar.

Dessutom förväntas NBS hjälpa till med att hantera klimatförändringens effekter och förlust av biologisk mångfald, samtidigt som de stöder flera hållbara utvecklingsmål. NBS stöds ofta av miljökunskap och lokal TEK i närliggande samhällen, TEK är fortfarande tyvärr lite utforskad. Ännu mindre kända är genusaspekter i dessa kunskapssystem. Våtmarker är viktiga NBS som på många sätt stöder hållbarhet av vattenanvändning.

It aims to explore the content of gendered traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) around wetlands and also identify forms, pathways and processes through which this gendered TEK can be utilized for policy and action towards restoration, conservation and management of wetlands. 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. The Ramsar Convention on Wetlands recognizes the importance of TEK in wetland protection, but there remains a wide gap between policy and practice, these remaining undocumented and unutilized. Wetlands are an important NBS that support water sustainability through multiple pathways and given a worsening context of degraded and disappearing wetlands, and water quality and quantity-related challenges in global South, water-related sustainability becomes the key to poverty reduction and sustainable development. The research will be carried out through a comparative case study analysis based in India where 3 case studies located in diverse geo-climatic and hydro-ecological settings will be explored through an empirical multi-disciplinary methodology combining ethnographic community-based research with participatory GIS and other tools. Finally, findings will be validated in neighboring low-income country Bangladesh through stakeholder workshops. Projektet handlar om användningen av våtmarker som naturbaserade lösningar (nature-based solutions, NBS) i global syd. Syftet är att utforska genusbaserad traditionell ekologisk kunskap (TEK) om våtmarker som möjliggör NBS för vattenrelaterad hållbar utveckling i låginkomstländer. NBS är inspirerade och stöds av naturen och använder eller efterliknar naturliga processer för förbättrad hantering av vatten. De erbjuder samtidigt miljömässiga, sociala och ekonomiska fördelar. För vatten har de även potential att möta flera utmaningar såsom vattenmängd och vattenkvalitet samt andra risker. Dessutom förväntas NBS hjälpa till med att hantera klimatförändringens effekter och förlust av biologisk mångfald, samtidigt som de stöder flera hållbara utvecklingsmål. NBS stöds ofta av miljökunskap och lokal TEK i närliggande samhällen, TEK är fortfarande tyvärr lite utforskad. Ännu mindre kända är genusaspekter i dessa kunskapssystem. Våtmarker är viktiga NBS som på många sätt stöder hållbarhet av vattenanvändning. Med tanke på utmaningar med försämrad vattenkvalitet och kvantitet i det global syd blir vattenrelaterad hållbarhet nyckeln till fattigdomsminskning och hållbar utveckling.

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.

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.

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.

Men hur barnens utveckling ser ut efter att de överlevt är oklart, trots att detta är viktig information för att kunna planera för sjukvårds och habiliteringsinsatser. I många låginkomstländer så saknas det stöd och habilitering för barn med funktionsnedsättningar, vilket leder till sämre utveckling och delaktighet för barnen samt reducerad livskvalitet för deras föräldrar. För att kunna inkludera barnen i vårdplanering så behövs det både information om hur många de är, samt vilka interventioner som skulle kunna vara till nytta för dem. Vi planerar därför att utföra ett forskningsprojekt i Nepal där vi kommer följa upp två grupper av barn, en grupp (381 barn) födda med komplikationer runt födseln som lett till att de behövt vårdinsatser (återupplivningsassistans, känguruvård, antibiotikabehandling) samt en grupp som inte behövt några insatser runt födseln (381 barn). Barnens funktionella utveckling i motorik, språk, beteende samt kognition kommer att undersökas med instrument speciellt utvecklade för låginkomstländer.

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.

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.

Two critical ones are Climate change, which is projected to affect mainly in negative ways; and the new conceptualization of ocean use called "The Blue Economy". A key knowledge gap is how the co-existence of these two strong drivers will affect livelihoods of coastal people highly dependent on marine resources. The proposed network and associated research will address this gap in the context of the Western Indian Ocean in the states of Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique.The research is anchored in sustainability science, social-ecological systems approaches and theories of societal transformation. The overarching question is: How are these coexisting drivers (climate change and the blue economy)  affecting coastal livelihoods and how may societal transformation look like considering the adaptive capacity of the people? Further, how managers and policy makers conceived the policies and what new economic activities they had in mind for the local people? Are these suitable and match people´s capabilities? The research will address these questions systematically for the first time in the three states, and will contribute to theoretical development understanding transformations in the coastal zones. The research is important and will advance the SDGs particularly, 1 no poverty, 2 zero hunger, 5 gender equality, 13 climate action, 14 locean life and marine resources/life under water and 16 robust/fair institutions. Det föreslagna nätverket avser att undersöka effekten av klimatförändringar och den blå ekonomin som samexisterande drivkrafter för den lokala befolkningen i olika kustområden i Syd- och Östafrika (Kenya, Tanzania och Mozambique).  Vi avser att kartlägga hur nya policies har påverkat lokala inkomstmöjligheter, hur dessa har förståtts och vilken framtid som stakas ut för befolkningen i kustområdena. Vi undersöker den spänning som finns mellan å ena sidan exploateringen av marina resurser i den blå ekonomin och den pågående eroderingen av dessa resurser som ett resultat av klimatförändringarna. I den blå ekonomin betonas t ex exploatering av olja och gasfyndigheter på havsbotten medan klimatkrisen kräver en utfasning av fossila bränslen. Klimatförändringarna innebär bl a försurning, syrebrist och ökande vattentemperaturer med negativa effekter för fisk och andra marina djur.

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. We will validate tools on stigma against mental illness and care seeking, and, assess the influence of the pandemic on access to care and prevention for mental and alcohol use disorders. This 3-year project will use longitudinal data from a cohort of 11,000 individuals aged 13-80 years before, during and after the pandemic. Based on our results we will suggest new policy guidelines for health care and community interventions to mitigate the impact of mental disorders and change prevailing discriminatory views of mental health in general. We build on a strong collaboration between Karolinska and AMBSO research organisation in Uganda overall aiming to optimize capacity for operational research in low-income contexts.

Studier om hur dessa påverkat risken för psykisk ohälsa börjar nu komma från höginkomstländer, men hittills saknas motsvarande studier från låginkomstländer i Afrika där orsakssambanden liksom åtgärderna kan se annorlunda ut.Syftet med detta forskningsprojekt är dels att studera förekomst och andelen nyinsjuknade i depression och ångest (de två vanligaste orsakerna till psykisk ohälsa) och alkoholproblem före, under och efter pandemin i Uganda, men även att undersöka riskfaktorerna och föreslå anpassade inventioner för att minska stigmat kring psykisk ohälsa och förbättra vården.Vi använder intervju och hälso-data från ett stort representativt urval i både rurala och urbana Uganda med över 11, 000 individer 13-80 år data regelbundet samlas in genom noggrann surveillance före (2018), under (2020–2021), och efter pandemin (2022-2025)Det övergripande målet med forskningen är att möjliggöra tidiga och effektiva insatser vad gäller psykisk ohälsa och alkoholproblem i Uganda och liknande låginkomstkontexter, liksom att minska stigmat kring psykisk ohälsa.

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. Projektet inkluderar omics-profilering, metabolisk rekonstruktion in silico, genredigering och biotillgänglighetstester för att utveckla en holistisk syn på den molekylära mekanismen bakom metabolismen av järn i sötpotatis.

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.

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.

Svårigheterna att jämföra tjänster för pengaöverföring och nå ut till målgruppen gör att det kan ifrågasättas om tjänsten motsvarar besökarnas behov. Endast 10 % av de som besöker startsidan går vidare för att göra en jämförelse. Tjänsten ska därför avvecklas i förtid, och 2024 blir därmed slutår för tjänsten. Money from Sweden has contributed to lower transfer costs internationally. The difficulties of comparing money transfer services and reaching the target group means that it can be questioned whether the service meets the needs of the visitors. Only 10% of those who visit the home page go on to make a comparison. The service must therefore be phased out prematurely, and 2024 will thus be the final year for the service.

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. 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.

De flesta medarbetarna hade begränsade eller inga tidigare kunskaper om tekniska föreskrifter eller tekniska handelshinder (TBT) när de tillträdde sina tjänster. Från april 2022 till april 2024 hade Kommerskollegium en långtidsrådgivare stationerad i Lusaka. Från och med januari 2025 ändrades det till att istället använda en expert som reste in och ut ur landet för avgränsade uppdrag. Kapacitetshöjande insatser genomfördes bland annat genom kortare kurser, rådgivning, mentorskap och deltagande i internationella forum med stöd av rådgivare. Projektresultat och lärande inkluderar följande: •Stärkt institutionell och teknisk kapacitet: DTR har sedan starten 2023 byggt upp betydande kompetens inom tekniska föreskrifter och tekniska handelshinder (TBT). Medarbetarna upplever att de har blivit betydligt tryggare i att granska tekniska föreskrifter, utarbeta notifieringar, förklara regelverk, samverka med berörda aktörer och representera Zambia internationellt. •Nya arbetssätt och verktyg: Flera ramverk, riktlinjer och rutiner för utveckling och granskning av tekniska föreskrifter har tagits fram, även om flera fortfarande är i utkastform. •Ansvar för WTO-notifieringar: DTR har tagit över ansvaret för Zambias nationella kontaktpunkt för notifieringar inom WTO:s TBT-avtal och har byggt upp kapacitet för att hantera notifieringar och andra WTO/TBT-åtaganden. •Stärkt internationellt deltagande: DTR fungerar nu som Zambias kontaktpunkt för TBT-frågor i regionala och internationella forum. Deltagandet i bland annat WTO:s TBT-kommitté har stärkt personalens kunskap och praktiska erfarenhet. •Implementeringen är ännu inte fullt institutionaliserad: DTR:s roll och mandat är fortfarande inte fullt känt inom Ministry of Commerce, Trade and Industry och bland andra reglerande myndigheter. Flera nya processer och samordningsmekanismer har ännu inte börjat tillämpas fullt ut. •Utmaningar i genomförandet: Samarbetet har präglats av vissa skillnader i förväntningar mellan DTR och Kommerskollegium kring kapacitetsutveckling, projektprocedurer och rådgivarnas roll. Detta har bidragit till förseningar och att vissa planerade aktiviteter inte genomförts. Sammantaget har projektet skapat en starkare grund för Zambias arbete med TBT-frågor, med tydliga förbättringar av såväl individuell som institutionell kapacitet. Den främsta utmaningen framåt är att befästa resultaten genom att formellt anta och genomföra de nya ramverken och rutinerna, stärka samordningen och kännedomen om DTR:s mandat samt säkerställa att den uppbyggda kapaciteten används konsekvent i praktiken. The Department for Technical Regulations (DTR) was established in January 2023 and staffed during the year. Most staff members had limited or no previous knowledge of technical regulations or technical barriers to trade (TBT) when they took up their positions. From April 2022 to April 2024, the National Board of Trade Sweden had a long-term adviser based in Lusaka. From January 2025, this arrangement was replaced by an expert who travelled to Zambia for shorter, targeted assignments. Capacity-building support was provided through, among other things, short courses, advisory support, mentoring and participation in international forums with support from advisers. Key project results and lessons learned include the following: Strengthened institutional and technical capacity: Since its establishment in 2023, DTR has built up substantial competence in technical regulations and TBT issues. Staff members report that they have become more confident in reviewing technical regulations, preparing notifications, explaining regulatory requirements, engaging with relevant stakeholders and representing Zambia internationally. New working methods and tools: Several frameworks, guidelines and procedures for the development and review of technical regulations have been developed, although several remain in draft form. Responsibility for WTO notifications: DTR has assumed responsibility for Zambia’s national notification point under the WTO TBT Agreement and has built capacity to manage notifications and other WTO/TBT-related obligations. Strengthened international participation: DTR now serves as Zambia’s focal point for TBT issues in regional and international forums. Participation in, among others, the WTO TBT Committee has strengthened staff knowledge and practical experience. Implementation is not yet fully institutionalised: DTR’s role and mandate are still not fully known within the Ministry of Commerce, Trade and Industry and among other regulatory authorities. Several new processes and coordination mechanisms have not yet been fully put into practice. Implementation challenges: The cooperation has been affected by some differences in expectations between DTR and the National Board of Trade Sweden regarding capacity development, project procedures and the role of advisers. This has contributed to delays and to some planned activities not being implemented. Overall, the project has created a stronger foundation for Zambia’s work on TBT issues, with clear improvements in both individual and institutional capacity. The main challenge going forward is to consolidate the results by formally adopting and implementing the new frameworks and procedures, strengthening coordination and awareness of DTR’s mandate, and ensuring that the capacity developed is applied consistently in practice.

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.

The group consists of senior experts from the eight NB8 countries: Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The support is demand-driven and implemented in close dialogue with Ukraine’s main counterpart, the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister responsible for EU and Euro-Atlantic Integration. It focuses on key elements of the accession process, including screenings, preparation for negotiations, policy analysis, and institutional coordination among relevant authorities. By mobilising joint Nordic-Baltic expertise, the intervention contributes to improved quality of Ukraine’s submissions to the European Commission, enhanced understanding of EU legislation, and strengthened operational capacity to advance the accession process. The support complements other internationally funded programmes and constitutes a coordinated NB8 contribution to Ukraine’s reform agenda in an ongoing wartime context. The support is implemented by the National Board of Trade Sweden in cooperation with the other NB8 countries. The geographical focus is Ukraine, and the intervention targets institutional capacity development related to EU integration. The long-term development objective is for Ukraine to achieve strengthened, sustainable, and well-coordinated institutional capacity to carry out the EU accession process and progressively integrate into the European Union.

The group consists of senior experts from the eight NB8 countries: Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The support is demand-driven and implemented in close dialogue with Ukraine’s main counterpart, the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister responsible for EU and Euro-Atlantic Integration. It focuses on key elements of the accession process, including screenings, preparation for negotiations, policy analysis, and institutional coordination among relevant authorities. By mobilising joint Nordic-Baltic expertise, the intervention contributes to improved quality of Ukraine’s submissions to the European Commission, enhanced understanding of EU legislation, and strengthened operational capacity to advance the accession process. The support complements other internationally funded programmes and constitutes a coordinated NB8 contribution to Ukraine’s reform agenda in an ongoing wartime context. The support is implemented by the National Board of Trade Sweden in cooperation with the other NB8 countries. The geographical focus is Ukraine, and the intervention targets institutional capacity development related to EU integration. The long-term development objective is for Ukraine to achieve strengthened, sustainable, and well-coordinated institutional capacity to carry out the EU accession process and progressively integrate into the European Union. The support contributes to this objective by reinforcing the ability of key public institutions to plan, coordinate, and implement EU-related reforms, even under conditions of war, thereby supporting long-term political and institutional stability and European integration.

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.

The project builds on a feasibility study of the Armenian food sector carried out in 2025. The study identified export potential among Armenian food SMEs, but also challenges related to export readiness, logistics, market requirements and limited knowledge of Swedish buyer expectations. The project aims to strengthen the export capacity and competitiveness of selected Armenian food SMEs and support diversification into the Swedish and broader European markets. It combines capacity development, market knowledge, coaching and business-to-business engagement, and is implemented in close cooperation with the International Trade Centre (ITC) and other relevant partners. The long-term objective is to contribute to sustainable economic development in Armenia through increased and more diversified exports and stronger integration into European markets. Projektet genomförs av Open Trade Gate Sweden (OTGS), som är en del av Kommerskollegium. Projektet bygger vidare på en förstudie av den armeniska livsmedelssektorn som genomfördes 2025. Förstudien visade att armeniska livsmedelsföretag har exportpotential, men också möter utmaningar kopplade till bland annat förmågan att exportera, logistik, marknadskrav och begränsad kunskap om svenska inköpares förväntningar. Projektet syftar till att stärka utvalda armeniska livsmedelsföretags exportkapacitet och konkurrenskraft samt bidra till en diversifiering mot den svenska och bredare europeiska marknaden. Projektet kombinerar kapacitetsutveckling, marknadskunskap, rådgivning och affärskontakter och genomförs i nära samarbete med International Trade Centre (ITC) och andra relevanta aktörer. Det långsiktiga målet är att bidra till hållbar ekonomisk utveckling i Armenien genom ökad och mer diversifierad export samt starkare integration med europeiska marknader. The project is expected to contribute to: •Improved export readiness among selected Armenian food SMEs, including increased knowledge of Swedish and EU market requirements, export strategies, packaging and labelling, and product adaptation. •Strengthened capacity of participating companies to enter and compete in the Swedish and European markets, including through the development of market-entry strategies and improved product positioning. •Improved market access through established and strengthened business contacts between Armenian food producers and Swedish and European buyers, including through B2B meetings and networking activities. •Strengthened cooperation within the Armenian food sector, including sector dialogue among dried-fruit producers and cooperation between Armenian and European sector organisations. Projektet förväntas bidra till: •Stärkt förmåga hos utvalda armeniska livsmedelsföretag att exportera till Sverige och EU, inklusive ökad kunskap om marknadskrav, exportstrategier, förpackning och märkning samt produktanpassning. •Stärkt kapacitet hos de deltagande företagen att etablera sig och konkurrera på den svenska och europeiska marknaden, bland annat genom utveckling av marknadsstrategier och förbättrad positionering av företagens produkter. •Förbättrat marknadstillträde genom etablerade och stärkta affärskontakter mellan armeniska livsmedelsproducenter och svenska och europeiska köpare, bland annat genom B2B-möten och nätverksaktiviteter. •Stärkt samarbete inom den armeniska livsmedelssektorn, bland annat genom branschdialog mellan producenter av torkad frukt och samarbete mellan armeniska och europeiska branschorganisationer.

The project aims to explore conditions for strengthening export opportunities for Colombian companies in the coffee, cocoa and selected processed food sectors in the Swedish market. As part of the project, companies participated in a market orientation initiative in Sweden to increase their understanding of market requirements, certification standards and commercial conditions. The project contributes to increased knowledge of barriers and opportunities for market access, including certification requirements, volumes and distribution channels. It also provides a basis for assessing the potential for future bilateral cooperation with Colombia, including possible collaboration with ProColombia as a partner. Based on the findings, a potential continued engagement during 2026–2027 is intended to focus on export readiness, networking and market exposure, including participation in major international food trade fairs in Europe. In the longer term, the project aims to contribute to export diversification, improved market access and sustainable economic development in Colombia. Projektet genomförs av Open Trade Gate Sweden (OTGS), som är en del av Kommerskollegium. Projektet syftar till att undersöka förutsättningarna för att stärka exportmöjligheter för colombianska företag inom kaffe-, kakao- och utvalda förädlade livsmedelsprodukter till den svenska marknaden. Inom ramen för projektet deltog företag från dessa sektorer i en marknadsorienteringsinsats i Sverige för att öka förståelsen för marknadskrav, certifieringar och affärsförutsättningar.

Den utgör även ett underlag för att bedöma potentialen för ett framtida bilateralt samarbete med Colombia, inklusive samverkan med ProColombia som möjlig partner. Ett eventuellt fortsatt engagemang under 2026–2027 kan, utifrån genomförda analyser, fokusera på att stärka företagens förutsättningar att exportera, bygga affärsnätverk och öka sin synlighet på marknaden, bland annat genom deltagande i internationella livsmedelsmässor i Europa.

The project aims to explore conditions for strengthening export opportunities for Colombian companies in the coffee, cocoa and selected processed food sectors in the Swedish market. As part of the project, companies participated in a market orientation initiative in Sweden to increase their understanding of market requirements, certification standards and commercial conditions. The project contributes to increased knowledge of barriers and opportunities for market access, including certification requirements, volumes and distribution channels. It also provides a basis for assessing the potential for future bilateral cooperation with Colombia, including possible collaboration with ProColombia as a partner. Based on the findings, a potential continued engagement during 2026–2027 is intended to focus on export readiness, networking and market exposure, including participation in major international food trade fairs in Europe. In the longer term, the project aims to contribute to export diversification, improved market access and sustainable economic development in Colombia. Projektet genomförs av Open Trade Gate Sweden (OTGS), som är en del av Kommerskollegium. Projektet syftar till att undersöka förutsättningarna för att stärka exportmöjligheter för colombianska företag inom kaffe-, kakao- och utvalda förädlade livsmedelsprodukter till den svenska marknaden.

By seconding an employee on site at EUPM, MPF has contributed to supporting the Moldovan security partners with pedagogical methods and tools to adapt to the needs of the national authorities and to contribute to better integrated exercise formats in the learning processes. The scope of the mission included developing the training capacity of Moldovan partners by organizing "train-the-trainer" courses to prepare and conduct crisis management exercises at the government level. The mission also included organizing seminar exercises at national and/or regional level and associating the different actors to increase their coordination, in particular in the joint planning of exercises, as well as evaluating the results of capacity building activities and identifying areas for improvement, follow-up actions and solutions. Under 2025 har MPF fortsatt att bidra med stöd till de moldaviska myndigheterna i att utveckla nya format och riktlinjer för krishanteringsövningar genom en sekonderad tjänst som Utbildare inom strategisk kommunikation till ett specialiserade team vid EUPM i Chisinau, Moldavien. MPF har genom att sekondera en medarbetare på plats vid EUPM bidragit till att stödja de moldaviska säkerhetspartnerna med pedagogiska metoder och verktyg för att anpassa sig till de nationella myndigheternas behov samt bidra till bättre integrerade övningsformat i lärandeprocesserna. Inom ramen för uppdraget ingår att utveckla träningskapaciteten hos moldaviska partners genom att organisera "train-the-trainer"-kurser för att förbereda och genomföra krishanteringsövningar på regeringsnivå. I uppdraget ingår även att organisera seminarieövningar på nationell och/eller regional nivå och associera de olika aktörerna för att öka deras samordning, särskilt i den gemensamma planeringen av övningar samt att utvärdera resultaten av kapacitetsbyggande aktiviteter och identifiera förbättringsområden samt uppföljningsåtgärder och lösningar. 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 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. 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.

Under 2025 har MPF fortsatt att bidra med stöd till de moldaviska myndigheterna i att utveckla nya format och riktlinjer för krishanteringsövningar genom en sekonderad tjänst som Utbildare inom strategisk kommunikation till ett specialiserade team vid EUPM i Chisinau, Moldavien. MPF har genom att sekondera en medarbetare på plats vid EUPM bidragit till att stödja de moldaviska säkerhetspartnerna med pedagogiska metoder och verktyg för att anpassa sig till de nationella myndigheternas behov samt bidra till bättre integrerade övningsformat i lärandeprocesserna. Inom ramen för uppdraget ingår att utveckla träningskapaciteten hos moldaviska partners genom att organisera "train-the-trainer"-kurser för att förbereda och genomföra krishanteringsövningar på regeringsnivå. I uppdraget ingår även att organisera seminarieövningar på nationell och/eller regional nivå och associera de olika aktörerna för att öka deras samordning, särskilt i den gemensamma planeringen av övningar samt att utvärdera resultaten av kapacitetsbyggande aktiviteter och identifiera förbättringsområden samt uppföljningsåtgärder och lösningar.
