She is a Medical Doctor who worked at all levels of the health care system in Uganda, before her PhD. Dr. Kapiriri’s research is at the nexus of health systems, public health, ethics and fair priority setting in healthcare organizations globally but mainly in developing countries. The core ideas are: How are health systems organized to meet the needs of their populations? How is priority setting done at the different levels of care and in different countries? What do people perceive as fair priority setting? What determines what gets prioritized? How can fairness be improved in priority setting? What lessons can be learnt and shared across different contexts? For example, Dr. Kapiriri has compared priority setting at the three levels of decision making in Uganda, Canada and Norway. Her latest project seeks to pilot test a framework developed to evaluate successful/ effective priority setting.
