The coronavirus disease 2019
(COVID-19) pandemic and its effects on households create an
urgent need for timely data and evidence to help monitor and
mitigate the social and economic impacts of the crisis on
the Somali people, especially the poor and most vulnerable.
To monitor the socioeconomic impacts of the COVID-19
pandemic and inform policy responses and interventions, the
World Bank designed and conducted a nationally
representative Somali High-Frequency Phone Survey (SHFPS) of
households. The survey covers important and relevant topics,
including knowledge of COVID-19 and adoption of preventative
behavior, economic activity and income sources, access to
basic goods and services, exposure to shocks and coping
mechanisms, and access to social assistance. This brief
summarizes the findings of the first round of the SHFPS,
implemented between June and July 2020. The information
presented here is based on a sample of 2,811 households
across all regions of Somalia, drawn using a random digit
dialing protocol. Sampling weights are computed to ensure
representativeness at the national and state level, and by
population type. The same households will be tracked over 12
months, with selected respondents—typically the household
head—completing interviews every 8-12 weeks. Monitoring the
well-being of households over time will improve
understanding of the effects of, and household responses to
the COVID-19 pandemic in near-real time. |
