Janet holds a PhD in Social Anthropology from the University of Cambridge (1985).  In 1987, after postdoctoral research in Zambia on poverty and HIV and AIDS, she joined DFID (then ODA) and spent 13 years in long-term postings as a technical cooperation officer/researcher/social development adviser for DFID in Uganda, Nepal and India.  She joined the School of International Development in 2000, and has subsequently been engaged in teaching, research and consultancies.

She has undertaken long-term research in Kenya, Uganda, Zambia, Bangladesh and Nepal and short-term consultancies and research in Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Malawi, Nepal, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Bangladesh and India.  She has expertise and experience in project management and implementation, monitoring and evaluation, social development, gender analysis and livelihoods approaches.  Her main continuing research experience and interests are in the social aspects of health, with a particular focus on HIV and AIDS (she has a number of on-going research projects in this area), migration, the understanding of chronic poverty and social protection.   Janet is currently head of the social science programme for the Medical Research Council/Uganda Virus Research Institute Research Unit on AIDS.
 
Janet’s teaching in recent years has focused on Master’s level courses in health and development, social policy and qualitative research methods.    
                     
Janet is an associate editor for the Journal of South Asian Development and the Journal of the Social Aspects of HIV and AIDS and is on the editorial boards of other journals.
 
Janet is currently the Chair of the International Development Ethics Committee for UEA and a member of HIV UEA, the HIV and Development Group at UEA.

Research Activities 

My research is currently mainly focused on social aspects of chronic conditions, particularly HIV.  I continue to be interested in migration and mobility and livelihoods and enjoy looking at these themes in conjunction with health and development.  Gender analysis remains an important part of all my work.

I am currently head of the social science programme for the Medical Research Council’s HIV Unit. 

I have a number on ongoing and recently completed research projects, including:

Livelihood trajectories and HIV and AIDS in South West Uganda – a longitudinal study of rural households

Funding: ESRC, MRC

Background: In 1991-1992, the MRC Programme undertook a study of households selected from the General Population Cohort (see section on the Observational Studies Programme). Over a period of one year field researchers paid monthly visits to the study households to record changes in a number of different aspects of the household’s daily life such as composition, employment, health, food consumption and social networks, and developed indicators that could be useful to identify households which may not be able to cope at times of crisis. A follow-up study after about 15 years was conducted to understand how households coped or failed to cope with the impact of HIV infection.

The longitudinal impact of HIV and AIDS on rural livelihoods in East Africa

Funding: SIDA (Sweden) through FAO, International Foundation for Science (IFS), and ESRC

Background: It has been postulated that the HIV epidemic will lead to changes in land use and land ownership in sub-Saharan Africa, and will adversely affect food production and food security of communities affected by the epidemic. However, there are few accurate data that may inform science and policy.

Objectives:  to determine the impact of HIV and AIDS in Uganda on agriculture and rural livelihoods for the past 20 years in order to understand the long-term impact of the epidemic and to contribute to the design of policies and programmes for impact mitigation.
Details and publications available on: http://www.esrc.ac.uk/my-esrc/Grants/RES-189-25-0013/read


The direct and indirect effects of HIV/AIDS on the health and wellbeing of older people

Funding: CORDAID

Background: In the context of the HIV/AIDS epidemic older people are often seen as care givers for orphans, but few studies have looked at the impact that the HIV epidemic has on the health and wellbeing of older people themselves.
Objectives: to describe the roles, health problems (physical and mental) and social wellbeing of older people who are directly or indirectly affected by HIV/AIDS, with special attention to the effects of the introduction of ART, and (ii) to develop policy recommendations for policy and practice that can be expected to improve the wellbeing of older people affected by or infected with HIV/AIDS.

Social aspects of HIV and AIDS, focusing on people’s self-management of HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART)

Recent research has focused on people’s management of HIV as a chronic condition in Uganda when taking ART: their adaptive strategies, their self-management and adjustment, and their work to rebuild lives and livelihoods, to regain order and control. This work started in rural Uganda in 2005 on a project funded by the Centers for Disease Control, and after publishing this work in 2010 with Steve Russell, are now undertaking a project with the MRC through an ESRC grant to take forward the work using both qualitative and quantitative methods to explore people’s self-management on ART and mental health outcomes.
Details available at: http://www.esrc.ac.uk/my-esrc/Grants/RES-062-23-2663/read

I am also currently involved in ongoing research on health and development in fishing communities, building on earlier research (see publications) and HIV and adolescents (two separate projects, with Sarah Bernays and Professor Tim Rhodes from London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, funded both by DFID and ESRC).

Information on a recent research project on livelihoods, funded by the Darwin Initiative and work on migration, funded by DFID, can be found here:
