  • Multilevel Determinants of HIV Prevention Among Urban Refugee Youth in Uganda

    Open AccessMoses Okumu, Carmen H Logie et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2026

    While urban refugee youth face HIV vulnerabilities spanning socio-ecological levels, knowledge gaps persist in HIV prevention outcomes. We conducted a baseline analysis of a cohort enrolled in Tushirikiane-4-Uthabiti, an intervention focused on HIV testing practices among urban refugee youth aged 16-24 in Kampala, Uganda (N = 330). Using regression models, we examined the societal, community, and interpersonal factors associated with condom use s…

  • Evaluating a mobile health intervention to increase Covid-19 prevention

    Open AccessShiqi Chen, Zerihun Admassu et al.ARTICLEGlobal Social Challenges Journal2025

    Background: Displaced populations in resource-constrained settings require tailored COVID-19 prevention strategies, and mobile health (mHealth) emerges as a cost-effective approach. This study aimed to evaluate engagement and learning outcomes of the Kukaa Salama – Staying Safe – mHealth intervention for enhancing COVID-19 prevention practices among urban refugee youth. Method: This mixed-methods analysis used cross-sectional data from refugee yo…

  • Findings from the Tushirikiane-4-MH (supporting each other for mental health) mobile health–supported virtual reality randomized controlled trial among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLECambridge Prisms Global Mental…2025References: 59

    Virtual reality (VR) for mental health promotion remains understudied in low-income humanitarian settings. We examined the effectiveness of VR in reducing depression with urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda. This randomized controlled trial assessed VR alone (Arm 1), VR followed by Group Problem Management Plus (GPM+) (Arm 2) and a control group (Arm 3), with a peer-driven and convenience sample of refugee youth aged 16–25 in Kampala. The prim…

  • Applying the Index of Vulnerability approach to understand water insecurity and other social-ecological factors associated with depression among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLESSM - Mental Health2024

    Water insecurity and other social-ecological factors may be associated with depression in low and middle-income contexts (LMICs). This is understudied among urban refugee youth in LMICs, who experience multiple forms of marginalization. We conducted a cross-sectional survey with a peer-driven sample of urban refugee youth aged 16–24 in Kampala, Uganda. We explored: the prevalence of depression (moderate, moderately severe); associations between s…

  • Sociodemographic factors associated with trajectories of depression among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda

    Open AccessZerihun Admassu, Shiqi Chen et al.ARTICLECambridge Prisms Global Mental…2024

    The chronicity of depression highlights the critical need for early depression screening with urban refugee youth in Kampala. Addressing multilevel depression drivers prompts age and gender-tailored strategies and considering social determinants of health

  • Exploring ecosocial contexts of alcohol use and misuse during the Covid-19 pandemic among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLEJournal of Migration and Health2024References: 11

    Urban refugees may be disproportionately affected by socio-environmental stressors that shape alcohol use, and this may have been exacerbated by additional stressors in the COVID-19 pandemic. This multi-method study aimed to understand experiences of, and contextual factors associated with, alcohol use during the pandemic among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda. We conducted a cross-sectional survey ( n = 335), in-depth individual interviews…

  • Sexual violence stigma experiences among refugee adolescents and youth in Bidi Bidi refugee settlement, Uganda

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLESSM - Mental Health2023

    There are over 100 million forcibly displaced persons who experience elevated risks for sexual violence. Sexual violence stigma can have immediate and long-lasting effects on social and health outcomes among survivors. There is a dearth of information on the experiences of sexual violence stigma among refugee adolescents and youth, particularly in low and middle-income contexts where most forcibly displaced persons are hosted. Our study focuses o…

  • Multi-method findings on Covid-19 vaccine acceptability among urban refugee adolescents and youth in Kampala, Uganda

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2023

    Scant studies have explored COVID-19 vaccine acceptability among refugees. However, contexts of forced migration may elevate COVID-19 vulnerabilities, and suboptimal refugee immunisation rates are reported for other vaccine-preventable diseases. We conducted a multi-methods study to describe COVID-19 vaccine acceptability among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda. This study uses cross-sectional survey data from a cohort study with refugees ag…

  • HIV Vulnerabilities Associated with Water Insecurity, Food Insecurity, and Other Covid-19 Impacts Among Urban Refugee Youth in Kampala, Uganda

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2023

  • Understanding how social support influences peer-delivered HIV prevention interventions among Ugandan female sex workers

    Open AccessMaureen McGowan, Stephanie Roche et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    In Uganda, social support (e.g., informational, instrumental, and emotional support) among FSW peers can work in ways that both motivate and discourage peer-delivered intervention uptake. Future FSW peer-delivered HIV prevention interventions should be designed around the dimensions of social support within FSW peer networks to maximize initial and repeat intervention delivery and uptake

  • Relational Factors and HIV Testing Practices

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2022

    Despite the global phenomenon of refugee urbanization, little is known of relational contexts that shape HIV testing among urban refugee youth. We explored perspectives, experiences, and preferences for social support in HIV testing among refugee youth aged 16-24 in Kampala, Uganda. We conducted five focus groups with refugee youth (n = 44) and five in-depth key informant interviews. Participant narratives signaled relational contexts shaping HIV…

  • Unintended uses, meanings, and consequences

    Open AccessShannon A Mcmahon, Daniel Kibuuka Musoke et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2021

    Female sex workers (FSWs) are at increased risk of HIV and face significant barriers to clinic-based HIV testing, including provider stigma and privacy constraints. HIV self-testing (HIVST) has been proven to significantly increase HIV testing among FSWs. Less is known, however, about how FSWs make meaning of oral-fluid HIV self-tests, and the unintended ways they use and understand this novel technology. From October 2016 to March 2017, we condu…

  • Exploring resource scarcity and contextual influences on wellbeing among young refugees in Bidi Bidi refugee settlement, Uganda

    Open AccessCarmen H Logie, Moses Okumu et al.ARTICLEConflict and Health2021

    Resource scarcity produced pervasive stressors among refugee adolescents and youth. Findings signal the importance of gender transformative approaches to SGBV prevention that integrate attention to resource scarcity. These may be particularly relevant in the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings signal the importance of developing health enabling social contexts with and for refugee adolescents and youth

  • But I Gathered My Courage

    Open AccessJonas Wachinger, Daniel Kibuuka Musoke et al.ARTICLEQualitative Health Research2021Cited by: 1References: 51

    HIV self-testing (HIVST) increases HIV testing in diverse populations, but little is known about the experiences of individuals who self-test. We used a five-step framework approach to analyze 62 qualitative interviews with 33 female sex workers (FSWs) participating in an HIVST trial in urban Uganda. Notions of empowerment emerged from the data, and findings were interpreted based on Kabeer's empowerment framework of resources, agency, and achiev…

  • The Effect of HIV Self-Testing Delivery Models on Female Sex Workers’ Sexual Behaviors

    Open AccessKatrina F Ortblad, Daniel Kibuuka Musoke et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2019

    HIV self-testing increases recent and frequent HIV testing among female sex workers (FSWs) in urban Uganda. Using results from a randomized controlled trial, we aim to establish the effect of HIV self-testing delivery models on FSWs' sexual behaviors in this setting. Clusters of one peer educator and eight participants were 1:1:1 randomized to: (1) direct provision of an HIV self-test, (2) provision of a coupon for facility collection of an HIV s…
