The project seeks to contribute to global debates on the political and institutional contexts that enable poor countries to mobilize domestic resources for social development. It examines the processes and mechanisms that connect the politics of resource mobilization and demands for social provision; changes in state-citizen and donor-recipient relations associated with resource mobilization and allocation; and governance reforms that can lead to improved and sustainable revenue yields and services.

  • Palliative Care for People Living with HIV/AIDS in Uganda: an Investigation of Patients and Caregivers' Outcome and Professional Perspectives
    Palliative Care for People Living with HIV/AIDS in Uganda: An Investigation of Patients and Caregivers' Outcome and Professional Perspectives By Wesley Too, BSe Nursing (Hons), MPH Thesis submitted to The University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy ©October 2011 ABSTRACT Background: Although antiretroviral treatment is expanding in sub-Saharan Africa, the World Health Organization advocates for integration of palliative care with HAAR T because pain, other distressing symptoms and complex psychosocial challenges persist throughout the HIV trajectory. Palliative care improves the outcome for patients with HIV and may complement antiretroviral treatment by increasing adherence through better management of side effects from the treatment, providing patient and family-centred holistic care, and giving end-of-life care when necessary. However, integrating what have become two disciplines is challenging. Aim: To study the implications for palliative care provision in the context of changing policy to universal access to HAART for people living with advanced AIDS (PL WA) in Uganda. Research questions addressed in the study included: 1. How do patients with advanced AIDS (stage III and IV) and with palliative care needs and their families experience care delivery and receipt over a period of8 weeks? 2. How is the morphine roll-out programme among advanced AIDS patients operationalized in Uganda? 3. What are the challenges faced by health care workers involved in delivery and implementation of integrated palliative care for patients with advanced AIDS? 4. What are the views of key opinion leaders on development of palliative care policies in Uganda? Methods: A mixed methods approach was employed.
