Public Health Policy & Advocacy

Public health challenges across East Africa demand solutions that are grounded in evidence, informed by community perspectives, and designed for sustainability. At CEGER, we bring over 14 years of public health research experience to every engagement, helping governments, NGOs, and development agencies design programmes and policies that genuinely improve health outcomes.

Our team has worked at the intersection of public health research, policy development, and community engagement across urban and rural settings in Uganda and the wider region. We understand that effective public health interventions require more than data — they require trust, cultural sensitivity, and the active participation of the communities they serve.

Our Services

• Health surveys and audits — Design and implementation of community health assessments, disease surveillance studies, and health systems evaluations
• Training and capacity building — Professional development programmes for health workers, community health volunteers, and public health administrators

• Implementation advisory — Strategic guidance on translating health policies into practical programmes, including resource planning and stakeholder coordination
• Proposal writing — Development of funding proposals for health research and programme implementation
