Considerations for Research during Covid-19 Crisis

  • IGC and IPA have built a simple survey module that can be used to measure the impact of the crisis on a variety of economic agents e.g., large companies, informal and small businesses, self-employed, workers, and farmers. Using this module by researchers will allow for collecting comparable data across countries. 
  • The EEA encourages researchers and institutions to send a short description of research projects that are in progress and involve gathering and analyzing data during the COVID-19 crisis. The EEA registry can be accessed here.
