Experience prior to Sustenra.
The examples below highlight roles and outputs delivered before Agnes's work with Sustenra, with links to selected publications, presentations, and commentary.

Selected published outputs and organisational announcements that demonstrate the experience informing Sustenra's advisory work.

Malaria Consortium, inSCALE project, Uganda

Community health worker strengthening and implementation research

Role Research Officer, community health systems and implementation research
Field research on the inSCALE project examining what structural conditions allow community health worker programmes to deliver reliable treatment coverage at scale. Agnes held responsibility for study design, data collection, and translating findings into practical scale-up recommendations.
  • Designed and implemented quantitative and qualitative studies on community case management, treatment seeking, and health service use.
  • Presented a poster on the impact of strengthening community health worker motivation and supervision at the Third Global Symposium on Health Systems Research, Cape Town, in 2014.
  • Collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to translate study findings into recommendations for national scale-up of community health worker strategies.
  • Built direct knowledge of the governance and resourcing barriers that prevent funded programmes from performing as designed, the same structural fragilities Sustenra assesses on behalf of funders and institutional clients.
Karolinska Institutet and Umeå University

Doctoral and postgraduate research in global health and epidemiology

Role Doctoral and postgraduate researcher
Doctoral training at Karolinska Institutet in Global Health and postgraduate training at Umeå University in Public Health and Epidemiology, with a research focus on access to care, treatment outcomes, and the organisation of health services in East Africa.
  • Led and co-authored peer-reviewed articles examining access to care, treatment outcomes, and health service organisation in East Africa.
  • Applied advanced study design, biostatistics, and causal inference methods to public health research questions in low-income settings.
  • Supervised and mentored early-career researchers and field teams involved in data collection and analysis for global health studies.
  • Built a research record that connects implementation evidence with academic rigour, directly relevant to the work Sustenra does in assessing whether funded programmes have the evidence base, governance design, and implementation realism to deliver what funders and investors are paying for.
