About this study

The FaCe-D Study, with funding from the Canadian Institute for Health Research (CIHR) through Global Alliance for Chronic Diseases (GACD) aims to adapt and implement an evidence-based family centred approach (FCA) to prevent cardiovascular diseases (CVD) among adolescents and their families. This 5-year implementation science study will be conducted in 16 villages in Jinja district and another 16 in Kampala beginning April 2024 to evaluate the effectiveness of FCA in reducing the risk of CVD in Uganda and to assess feasibility, adoption, while measuring the costs of implementation. The study will be implemented by a group of researchers from MRC/UVRI \& LSHTM, University of British Columbia (Canada), TASO (Uganda) and University of California San Francisco (UCSF) - USA with guidance from the Ministry of Health - Uganda.
