Lending a hand:developing a support structure for young migrants in South Africa and Uganda
| Name | Country code |

| South Africa | ZA |
We use mixed methods to adapt, implement and evaluate the feasibility of an intervention. We will use participatory methods working with youth advisory groups in both countries already engaged in the design of this project, to develop and implement the intervention. Then we will conduct a mixed methods process evaluation to assess which facets of the package are valued and test our assumptions about the challenges young migrants face and the appropriateness of the intervention offered.
The work is divided into four phases across 30 months: Phase 1 (months 1-3): recruitment of staff and other preparations; Phase 2 (months 4-9): Baseline assessment and co-designing the intervention with young people and other stakeholders; Phase 3 (months 10-21): Implementation of the intervention; Phase 4 (months 22-30): Analysis, dissemination and discussions on refinement of the intervention and, if the intervention is feasible, the design of a full-scale trial.

Sampling
For the baseline survey : The sample size calculation for the baseline and end-line surveys is based on a simple one sample test of proportions to demonstrate acceptability defined as the proportion of our participants who use our services is at least 50%. To do this, we will simply count the proportion of baseline participants offered the intervention who make contact with our peer-supporter intervention by three months. In the end-line survey, following 9-10 months of intervention delivery, we will measure the proportion of the population who have engaged with at least one of the health-related, skills-related or social service components of the intervention. We have been conservative with our sample size calculation, allowing for the fact that sample size estimates such as these are very sensitive to the assumption of the expected proportion. We expect uptake to be 60%; as long as it is at least 50% we will achieve power of greater than 94%.
