COVID-19 Impact on Rural Men and Women in Ghana, Round 3

This dataset is the result of a phone survey set up to measure the impact of COVID-19 on rural people in Ghana. As most governments have urged the population to stay at home to slow down the transmission of the disease, the impact of COVID-19 can affect women and men in different ways: as an income shock (directly or indirectly); as a health and caring shock; as a shock of mobility (affecting access to water, food, firewood, schooling); and as a risk of increased domestic conflict and violence. To capture these various effects on household welfare, this phone survey was conducted with (around) 500 individuals randomly drawn from an existing list of phone numbers collected from previous household surveys with an equal proportion of women and men. The same individuals were also interviewed during other rounds to generate a longitudinal panel allowing to analyze the impact of COVID-19 through time.

本数据集为一项专门设计的电话调查成果，旨在评估新冠疫情（COVID-19）对加纳农村民众的影响。鉴于多数国家政府均呼吁民众居家防疫以减缓病毒传播，新冠疫情对不同性别的人群会产生差异化影响：包括收入层面的直接或间接冲击、健康与照护冲击、流动受限冲击（影响民众获取水、食物、柴火及受教育机会），以及家庭冲突与暴力风险上升等问题。为全面捕捉上述各类对家庭福祉的影响，本次电话调查从既往家庭调查收集的现有电话号码名单中随机抽取约500名受访者，男女比例各占一半。同一批受访者还在后续多轮调查中接受了访问，以此构建纵向面板数据集，以便对新冠疫情的影响开展跨时间维度的分析。
