Malnutrition Clinical Trial
Official title:
Strengthening Resilience to Climate Change by Improving Mental Health: Evidence From a Randomized Intervention in Southwestern Uganda
The study aims to evaluate if enhancing the mental health of refugee mothers can make them better able to implement new farming methods that are meant to improve food security in the face of climate change. It is a cluster-randomized controlled trial involving 900 pairs consisting of refugee mothers and their children aged 36-59 months, living in Nakivale refugee settlement in Uganda. The mothers will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: - Control group: Mothers will receive Enhanced Usual Care (EUC). - HGI group: Mothers will receive the Home Gardening Intervention, consisting of training and supplies for home gardening. - HGI/SH+ group: Mothers will receive both the Home Gardening Intervention and the Self-Help Plus mental health intervention. The main goal is to see if the gardening program alone can reduce food insecurity after 12 months compared to the EUC control group. It also aims to see if reducing psychological distress by adding the mental health component boosts the effects of the gardening intervention. Secondary goals are to look at impacts on dietary diversity, child malnutrition, and mothers' mental health levels across all three groups. The study also gathers survey data on participant mothers' migration history, social capital, exposure to potentially traumatic events, exposure to natural hazards and environmental stressors, mental health, and parenting style. Both mothers and their children will furthermore play incentivized economic games to measure their economic preferences (time, risk, social preferences). Additionally, the study will assess childrens' wellbeing and functioning. Children will also be asked to carry out gamified tasks designed to measure their cognitive development.
