GCRF_NF138 Uptake Public Health Practices

项目摘要

How can the uptake and acceptance of health guidelines regarding COVID-19 be improved among 'hard-to-reach' communities in Uganda, specifically among refugees, pastoralist communities, truck drivers and urban slum dwellers? Specifically, the project will consider how guidelines can be made more compatible with local cultural practices, and practical and economic constraints, and whether this indeed improves the distribution and uptake of information. Since in many communities women are central to preventive activities, the project pays specific attention to the gendered aspects of the distribution, communication and uptake of health guidelines. It further considers how trust in health organisations can be improved by means of including local community organisations in developing and implementing health guidelines. The main objectives are: 1) To establish how culture, information, attitudes and practices unique to targetedcommunities influence the risk of COVID-19 transmission.2) To promote culturally sensitive radio and mobile phone communication to enhanceawareness of the COVID-19 prevention; specifically, the relevance and the importance ofcommunity engagement and local solutions.3) To examine the role of trust in health organisation with the aim to build local community capacity to respond to pandemics, and to gather local evidence that can inform health policy and humanitarian response.

如何在乌干达“难以接触”的社区，特别是难民、牧民社区、卡车司机和城市贫民窟居民中，提高对COVID-19卫生指南的理解和接受程度？具体而言，该项目将考虑如何使准则更符合当地文化习俗以及实际和经济限制，以及这是否确实改善了信息的传播和吸收。由于在许多社区，妇女是预防活动的中心，该项目特别注意保健准则的分发、宣传和接受的性别方面。它还考虑了如何通过让地方社区组织参与制定和实施卫生准则来提高对卫生组织的信任。主要目标是：1）确定目标社区特有的文化、信息、态度和做法如何影响COVID-19传播的风险。2）推广文化敏感的无线电和移动的电话通信，以提高对COVID-19预防的认识;具体地说，社区参与和当地解决方案的相关性和重要性。研究信任在卫生组织中的作用，旨在建立当地社区应对流行病的能力，并收集当地证据，为卫生政策和人道主义反应提供信息。
