Research for Effective Covid-19 Response (RECOVR): Rwanda

Tracking how people’s lives are affected by the COVID-19 pandemic can enable policymakers to better understand the situation in their countries and make data-driven policy decisions. To respond to this need, IPA implemented the RECOVR panel survey to facilitate comparisons, document real-time trends of policy concern, and inform decision-makers about the communities that are hardest-hit by the economic toll of the pandemic. IPA has rolled out the RECOVR survey in Burkina Faso, Colombia, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Metro Mexico City, the Philippines, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, and Zambia. We document severe negative shocks to employment, income and food security, and identify how families are educating their children during extended school closures.

追踪新冠疫情（COVID-19 pandemic）对民众生活的影响，能够帮助政策制定者更全面地掌握本国局势，进而制定数据驱动的政策决策。为响应这一现实需求，IPA启动了RECOVR面板调查（panel survey），旨在实现跨区域对比、记录政策关切领域的实时趋势，并向决策者通报受疫情经济冲击最为严重的社区状况。目前，IPA已在布基纳法索、哥伦比亚、科特迪瓦、加纳、墨西哥城都会区、菲律宾、卢旺达、塞拉利昂及赞比亚推出RECOVR调查项目。本项目记录了就业、收入与粮食安全领域遭受的严重负面冲击，并调研了学校长期停课期间各家庭的子女教育实施方式。
