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.

Impact of COVID-19 on Food and Nutrition Security in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

<p>The federal and regional governments in Ethiopia have set up a number of measures to contain the spread of COVID-19.Schools have been closed, social gatherings banned and restrictions on vehicle movement have been imposed.While these actions are expected to slow the spread of the virus, they may have substantial adverse effects on food and nutrition security.To gain a better understanding of these impacts, we are conducting a series of phone surveys in the capital of Ethiopia, Addis Ababa.This project builds on a recent food consumption and nutrition survey fielded in February 2020.</p>
