“…In this part, we concentrate our review on five key dimensions, namely the topical, temporal, and geographic dimensions as well as geospatial coding and open access of the data. These are dimensions that a survey should accommodate to adequately inform the pattern in the evolution and the socio-economic impacts of and responses to the pandemic (Gourlay et al, 2021 ; Kühne et al, 2020 ; Stojetz et al, 2022 ). Topical dimension …”

We survey efforts that track food security in Africa using phone surveys during the COVID-19 pandemic. Phone surveys are concentrated in a few countries mostly focusing on a narrow theme. Only a few allow heterogeneous analyses across socioeconomic, spatial, and intertemporal dimensions across countries, leaving important issues inadequately enumerated. We recommend that the scientific community focuses on countries (and regions and groups within countries) where the evidence base is thin, and that policymakers in less researched areas attract more research by improving their statistical capacity, openness, and governance.

“…We use survey data from the Life with Corona (LwC) project (Stojetz et al 2022), a research study, which continuously collected real-time survey data from Germany between March 2020 and September 2021. For this study, we analyze 17,228 observations collected between March 23, 2020 and September 22, 2021 from individuals living in Germany (Figure A1, Figure A2).…”

SummaryBackgroundMental health risks are high in conflict settings, but mental health research mostly focuses on non-conflict settings. Survey data from active conflict settings often suffer from low response rates, unrepresentative samples, and a lack of detailed information on the roots and implications of poor mental health. We overcome these challenges by analyzing nationally representative evidence on the prevalence, sources, and socio-economic correlates of depression, a highly disabling and costly public health issue, in an active conflict setting.MethodsWe analyze nationally and sub-nationally representative geocoded survey data from the Palestinians’ Psychological Conditions Survey, collected from 5,877 Palestinian individuals in West Bank and Gaza in 2022. We calculate representative depression statistics, disaggregate by sub-areas and across socio-demographic groups, and estimate the associations with geocoded violent conflict event data as well as survey-based trauma exposure across conflict types and socio-economic outcomes.Findings58 percent (SE=2·21) of adults in Palestine exhibit depressive symptoms. Prevalence is highest in Gaza (71 percent, SE=2·70), increases with exposure to violent conflict and traumatic events, and is associated with worse socio-economic outcomes. The associated losses for 2022 are equivalent to 732,555 Years Lost in Disability, representing 8·9 percent of Palestine’s GDP.InterpretationThose exposed to violence and traumatic events are disproportionately affected by depression in conflict settings, which may fuel poverty and instability. Scalable investments in mental health in conflict settings promise to not only support well-being but also strengthen productivity and social cohesion for a given level of violence.FundingThe study received funding by the World Bank’s State and Peace Building Trust Fund.
