This page lists research projects that are being developed by IPA and others. Our goal is to document active studies taking place on COVID-19’s socio-economic impacts—and results, as they come in—in order to inform researchers and decision-makers working to mitigate the crisis. As this is a public good, the hub contains both IPA and non-IPA studies. Inclusion criteria for the hub can be found here, and new projects and questionnaires can be submitted here.

COVID-19-Related Knowledge, Attitudes, and Behavior in the Province of Aceh, Indonesia

<p>The COVID-19 pandemic shapes the lives of people around the globe - at the same time, people themselves have the power to shape the pandemic.By employing protective health behavior, such as social distancing, hygiene, mask wearing, and appropriate actions when infected, the population can contribute to alleviating the severity of an outbreak.This may be of particular importance whenever health systems or populations are vulnerable to shocks, as is frequently the case in low- and middle-income settings.Therefore, understanding the underlying drivers of protective health behavior against COVID-19 is urgently needed to shape policy responses.</p>

RECOVR Mexico: Tracking the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic

<p>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 has developed the RECOVR survey—a panel survey that will 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.</p>
