NIHR Global Health Research Group on Nepal Injury Research A UK and low- and middle-income country (LMIC) partnership that aims to prevent injuries, make communities safer and improve injury outcomes in Nepal through collaborative research, surveillance, innovation, training, capacity building and policy development. This research has the direct and primary aim of improving the health, wellbeing and economic development of people in LMICs. 1) Engaging with stakeholders to understand their perspectives, awareness of the problem and priorities for change, and enable effective uptake of research. 2) Evidence through data will develop and pilot a hospital based injury surveillance system and explore the feasibility of collecting information on injuries from rural health posts. The Group will understand how injuries happened through interview, focus group, survey and verbal autopsy methods. 3) Effective and cost effective interventions will be developed and tested, adapting proven interventions from other LMICs where possible, and creating new interventions where necessary. Existing knowledge suggests that priority areas are likely to be road injuries, home injuries and the first response to trauma. 4) Enhancing capacity and enabling sustainability. Nepal has a limited and fragmented injury research capacity. The Group will establish partnerships to reduce isolation of researchers, and identify and meet their training needs to enable them to generate internationally excellent research. The Group will work with the Government of Nepal, academic institutions, NGOs and the WHO to plan the sustainability of the research centre in the long term.

NIHR HPSR-DA: Perioperative health systems to support surgical treatment Safe and affordable surgery is a global health priority. For surgical procedures to effectively improve patient outcomes, health systems must also provide high-quality perioperative care (the care before, during and after surgery). There is now strong evidence that health systems failures around the time of surgery are a key factor limiting the net improvements in health which could be achieved through greater worldwide access to surgery. In this proposal, we will build the foundations of a major global health research unit to study and improve perioperative health systems. We will map perioperative care pathways in different resource limited hospitals. We will co-produce a list of research priorities, and a core dataset for quality assurance, clinical trials and implementation research. We will perform initial community engagement work, a research capacity needs analysis and develop the dissemination plans essential for a major research programme in perioperative care. 1) Establish partnerships with five higher education institutions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)
2) Map perioperative care pathways in different LMIC hospitals and identify common research themes, using literature review, observation and interviews with healthcare staff and patients
3) Co-produce priority questions with patients, healthcare staff and policy-makers for future mixedmethods research, using surveys and stakeholder workshops
4) Co-produce a patient dataset which is relevant and feasible to collect in resource limited hospitals, and build a simple online database to capture this information
5) Complete a research capacity needs assessment at local and national levels in LMICs and a workforce plan for research delivery
6) Develop a pathways to policy impact plan for future research
NIHR Global Health Research Group on a Package of Care for the Mental Health of Survivors of Violence in South Asia A UK and low- and middle-income country (LMIC) partnership that aims to develop a comprehensive, adaptable package of care to improve the mental health of survivors of violence against women (VAW), modern slavery, and civil conflict in resource-constrained settings in South Asia. 1) Identify candidate interventions through systematic review and expert networks. Through household and institutional surveys, augment existing partner data with quantitative and qualitative information on mental health burden, needs, stigma, and care-seeking. Through interviews and workshops, work with survivors and providers to understand local perspectives, mental health and social support services, intervention opportunities, and potential resources. 2) Collaborate with survivors and providers to pinpoint promising interventions and opportunities, barriers to uptake, and potential unintended outcomes. Through workshops and consultation, co-develop theories of change and delineate a provisional intervention package. 3) Pilot interventions to understand feasibility (cultural appropriateness, delivery, uptake, barriers and enablers), acceptability (motivations and expectations, safety and unintended outcomes), and potential effectiveness.

Following a costed extension, additional objectives will include:
Work Package 1: Further research
1. Improve the mental health of survivors of violence by extending the current package of care to adolescent girls and boys aged 15-19 years.
2. Additional nested studies led by Early Career Researchers (ECRs).

Work Package 2: Enhance dissemination and impact.
1. Present package of care to government and civil society stakeholders at a regional event in India.

Work Package 3: Career development for ECRs.
1. Organise and lead an international symposium immediately following the dissemination event.
2. Have ECRs design and lead their own nested studies on dating violence and with mothers-in-law of young women.
NIHR Global Health Research Group on Social Policy and Health Inequalities A UK and low- and middle-income country (LMIC) partnership that aims to improve population health by studying the social determinants of health and to further understanding of how social policy may reduce health inequalities globally. This research has the direct and primary aim of improving the health, wellbeing and economic development of people in LMICs. 1) Expand the research potential of the 100M cohort by adding further data: geographical information including an indicator of the deprivation of each person’s area of residence (created as part of this project) and data on non-communicable diseases from hospitals and other sources. 2) Evaluate the impact of specific policies (a welfare programme and a subsidised housing programme) on health and health inequalities. 3) Measure Brazil’s progress against the Sustainable Development Goals on non-communicable diseases for different social groups. 4) Build research capacity in the evaluation of public health programmes internationally through the development and delivery of a course. 5) Develop and maintain a strong relationship with stakeholders, including policy makers and practitioners, so that analyses and results are focused, useful, timely and accessible. This will maximise the opportunity for action to be taken as a result of this research and will lead to the joint production of future research.
NIHR Global Health Research Group on Diet and Activity A UK and low- and middle-income country (LMIC) partnership that aims to understand the determinants of population levels of diet and activity behaviour in LMICs and evaluate population-level interventions aimed at changing these behaviours in order to reduce the risk of non-communicable disease. This research has the direct and primary aim of improving the health, wellbeing and economic development of people in LMICs. 1) Generate evidence on the factors that lead to poor diet and physical inactivity in LMICs. 2) Design and evaluate interventions to change these factors (also known as determinants). 3) Use mathematical modelling to investigate the long-term health and economic effects of such interventions.
NIHR Global Health Research Group Safe Motherhood Research Programme Most maternal deaths occur in Sub-Saharan Africa. Nearly all are preventable with good quality maternal healthcare. Both Malawi and Zambia are committed to improving maternal
and neonatal health outcomes but are not making fast enough progress. The aim of the NIHR Safe Motherhood Research Programme is to improve maternity outcomes in Malawi
and Zambia by improving the quality of care. The senior leadership of the research team are all based in Malawi and Zambia, hosted by the Malawi-Liverpool-Wellcome Research
Programme in Blantyre, Malawi.

The four-year (August 2022 – July 2026) programme of work described here builds upon previous work of the NIHR DIPLOMATIC research group in Zambia and Malawi. We will
leverage the team research strengths and network, and initiate new work to ensure meaningful impact on maternal and neonatal health outcomes. The NIHR Safe Motherhood
group’s aim will be delivered through 4 themes, which operate alongside the cross-cutting domains of capacity building in institutions in both countries, communicating widely across professional and public settings for impact, and community engagement and involvement. We will ensure the research is centred on the needs of users and their families, and focusseson sustainable improvements that can be implemented within resource constrained health systems. 1. Data driven improvement – we will report key maternal and neonatal health data to improve the quality of pregnancy care in Zambia and Malawi
2. Placing users at the centre of change – we will use qualitative methods to understand the experience of vulnerable service users, in particular adolescents and women with mental health problems
3. Prioritisation and co-design – we will engage stakeholders in prioritisation and train health professionals in methods for co-designing interventions
4. Implementing and evaluating change – we will implement the behaviour change interventions co-designed with stakeholders in Zambia and Malawi, starting with management of sexually transmitted infections during pregnancy
5. Capacity building and communicating for impact – all programme activities aim to improve the knowledge and skills of health professionals in Zambia and Malawi, including effective communication of findings for policy impact
