The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic and its economic and social effects on households have created an urgent need for timely data to help monitor and mitigate the social and economic impacts of the crisis and protect the welfare of the least well-off in Ethiopian society. To monitor how the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic is affecting Ethiopia's economy and people and to inform interventions and policy responses, the World Bank designed and conducted its High-Frequency Phone Survey of Households (HFPS-HH). The HFPS-HH builds on the national longitudinal Ethiopia Socioeconomic Survey (ESS) that the Central Statistical Agency (CSA) carried out in 2019 in collaboration with the World Bank. The HFPS-HH drew a subsample of the ESS sample that was representative of households with access to a working phone. The same households will be tracked over six months, with selected respondents (typically the household head) completing phone-based interviews every three to four weeks. This high-frequency follow-up allows for better understanding the effects of and household responses to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic in near real time to support new, evidence-based responses.
