Informal Support for People with Alzheimer's Disease and Related D
Informal Support for People With Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias in Rural Uganda: A Qualitative Study Pia Ngoma Nankinga ( [email protected] ) Mbarara University of Science and Technology Samuel Maling Maling Mbarara University of Science and Technology Zeina Chemali Havard Medical School Edith K Wakida Mbarara University of Science and Technology Celestino Obua Mbarara University of Science and Technology Elialilia S Okello Makerere University Research Keywords: Informal support, dementia and rural communities Posted Date: December 17th, 2019 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.2.19063/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/16 Abstract Background: The generation of people getting older has become a public health concern worldwide. People aged 65 and above are the most at risk for Alzheimer’s disease which is associated with physical and behavioral changes. This nurtures informal support needs for people living with dementia where their families together with other community members are the core providers of day to day care for them in the rural setting. Despite global concern around this issue, information is still lacking on informal support delivered to these people with dementia. Objective: Our study aimed at establishing the nature of informal support provided for people with dementia (PWDs) and its perceived usefulness in rural communities in South Western Uganda. Methods: This was a qualitative study that adopted a descriptive design and conducted among 22 caregivers and 8 opinion leaders in rural communities of Kabale, Mbarara and Ibanda districts in South Western Uganda. The study included dementia caregivers who had been in that role for a period of at least six months and opinion leaders in the community. -

Facilitation of an IT Training Centre in Uganda
Justine Magambo 13.06.2010 Proposal for Facilitation of an IT Training Centre in Uganda Past Performance In 2004, the education-africa project was initiated at the University of Cologne with the major goal of facilitating ICT use in teacher education. Meanwhile, the University of Cologne has signed Memorandums of Understanding with Kenyatta University, Kyambogo University and Mbarara University of Science and Technology. In 2008 Linuxola in cooperation with the Department of Educational Psychology at the University of Cologne formed a partnership to provide three African universities with computer hardware and software. The major aim was to support teaching staff and student teachers in these universities in developing ICT skills both for general use and for teaching. This concept was proposed in response to the study carried out by Justine Magambo1 in 2007 which explored the use ICT in teacher education in universities in sub-Sahara Africa. Objectives and activities Within this framework, Linuxola donated 20 computers to each of the three universities: Kenyatta University (Kenya), Kyambogo University and Mbarara University of Science and Technology in Uganda. Linuxola was in charge of fundraising for the computers, while the University of Cologne financed shipping. The African universities were to ensure space or rooms for the computers as well as identify IT focal points. Justine Magambo, who coordinated and managed the project and the partnership, visited all three universities to appraise their preparedness for the computer consignment. Her report showed that all three universities had appointed IT focal points and set up computer rooms. In February 2010 the computers for Mbarara and Kyambogo were delivered and cleared by Mbarara University as agreed by both university officials. -

MBARARA CITY: Settlement Profiles
MBARARA MUNICIPALITY 2010 SLUM PROFILE PRODUCED BY ‘Joining hands with the Urban poor’ & UGANDA SLUM DWELLERS FEDERATION FORE WORD ACTogether Uganda, Uganda Slum Dwellers Federation in partnership with Mbarara Municipal council and Ministry of Lands Housing and Urban Development with support from SDI and Cities Alliance, found it necessary that they collect this information so that the challenges of the urban poor living in these slum settlements can be bought to the fore-front in planning and development of Mbarara Municipality. Our purpose of putting together these profiles is to provide an inner understanding and most uncomfortable truth about the status of the urban slum settlements in Mbarara. The report comprises of a list of slum settlements in Mbarara Municipality and carries the most standardized detail of the informal settlements as provided by slum dwellers them selves. It‟s paramount to note that the variables were not derived from professionals, academicians or technical people but rather the slum dwellers themselves who most understand the slum conditions simply because it‟s where they live and spend their time. We also found it very necessary to collect the past and present histories of each slum because with experience gained from working in slums, the history of each area has a significant role to play in its upgrading and development. Mbarara Municipal council has put in place necessary legal and regulatory mechanisms to safe guard the rights of people living in slum settlements and ensure that harmony, cohesion and inclusive development is given a priority. There fore it recognizes the presence, potentials and partnerships of people living in slums. -
