The University of Utah Office of Sponsored Projects Division was awarded a $193,672 Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health's John E. Fogarty International Center (CFDA 93.989: International Research and Research Training) to develop and test the "Bajjajja" intervention. This innovative program aims to promote economic empowerment and improve the health and well-being of grandmother-caregivers in Uganda who provide primary care for their grandchildren. The three-year project will refine and adapt the multi-component Bajjajja intervention through a community-engaged process, assess its feasibility and preliminary efficacy, and explore barriers and facilitators to maintaining the individual benefits and sustaining the income-generating activities. This research will lay the groundwork for a future clinical trial to evaluate the Bajjajja intervention's impact on the mental, physical, and economic well-being of grandmother-caregivers in Uganda.
