    Abstract
    The participants of this phone interview were identified using mixed methods. Stratified random sampling were adopted for PoCs based in Kakuma, Kalobeyei, Dadaab and Urban areas. While a census was used for all PoCs who were 18+ years amongst the Shona community; this cohort forms 48.6% of the enumerated population of the Shona people. The survey was conducted at two levels; household and individual. For the second wave, 4390 individuals were included belonging to 1735 households.

    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    1000 individuals (18 years and above) with active phone numbers were randomly selected from UNHCR database for each of the four camp sites - Kakuma, Kalobeyei, Dadaab and Urban. For Shona, we took the sample from the Socioeconomic Assessment survey. Due to the smaller sample size of the Shona population (782), we use everybody in the sample. Those selected individuals from each site were sent an SMS, stating that they have been randomly selected to participate in a socio-economic impact of COVID-19 survey. Out of the individuals who were delivered the SMS, 250 individuals were selected from each site for the survey giving a sum of 3,529 individuals.
    Response Rate

    The consent rate from all the respondents (respondents interviewed in the 1st wave + respondents that were not reached in the 1st wave) was 56%. The consent rate from 1st wave respondents was 88%.
