Fuel and food shortages resulting from the war have aggravated post-pandemic inflation, which had already reached double digits in many parts of the world, eroding household purchasing power, hitting the most vulnerable hardest, and adding to social pressures. The reduction in exports of grains and oilseeds due to the conflict in Ukraine has impacted the consumption of other, more nutritious foods. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is particularly vulnerable and volatile in response to these global food market disruptions, and as the crisis continues, its impact on African economies has deepened.\nTo better understand the shock's impact, ERF carried out a phone survey of approximately 2,000 households in Egypt and Kenya, focusing on how the war has affected them. The main objectives of this survey are to:\n\u00b7\tIdentify the factors contributing to food insecurity, particularly in female-headed households.\n\u00b7\tInvestigate how various households have coped with rising inflation and the scarcity of certain goods.\n\u00b7\tDetermine the extent to which households have benefited from government support programs.\n\n\nThe harmonization was designed to create comparable data that can facilitate cross-country and comparative research between  the two countries  (Egypt and Kenya). Both  surveys incorporate similar survey designs, with data on households and individuals within those households.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2024-04-11","end":"2024-05-17","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Kenya","abbreviation":"KEN"}],"geog_coverage":"National","analysis_unit":"Household and Individuals","universe":"The survey covered a national random sample of mobile phone users aged 18-64.","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"The ERF Impact of Russian Ukranian War on Households Survey includes a questionnaire that covers the demographic and household characteristics, education and children, labor market status, food security, income, social safety net, employment and unemployment detection, attitudes towards risks.

Random digit dialing (RDD), within the range of valid numbers, was used, with up to three attempts if a phone number was not picked up\/answered, was disconnected or busy, or picked up but could not complete the interview at that time. Samples were stratified by country-specific market shares of mobile operators. The sample is designed to cover at least 2000 unique households and individuals. A question is included in the survey for the number of phone numbers within the household to weight appropriately. Further weighting of the household and individual samples was done to reflect the demographic composition of the population as obtained by the most recent publicly available data with individual phone ownership and relevant demographic and labour market characteristics. In the individual interview, respondents who are employers or self-employed were asked to respond to either the household enterprise or farmer modules.","coll_mode":"Computer Assisted Telephone Interview [cati]","weight":"To reduce bias in a number of observable dimensions, inverse probability weighting was applied. The weights were created at two levels: Individual and household. The weights had the following inputs:\n- Phone operators and their market shares provided by the data collection company\n- Number of phones by operator for individuals (weighting for individuals) and household members (weighting for households).\n- Representative data with comparable demographic and household characteristics for weighting non-response.\n\nHousehold and individual weights were all winsorized at the 95th percentile to ensure that no outlier weight drove statistics. \n\nIndividual weights should be used for all analyses where the outcome is at the individual level. For household-level results (e.g. household income), the weighting used to generalize to households (e.g. X% of households are food insecure).\n\nVariable names:\n\u2022 Individual weight: ind_wt\n\u2022 Household weight: hh_wt\n\nNote: there is more details on the weights and sampling at the \u201cImpact of Russian Ukrainian War on Households in Egypt & Kenya_sampling Design\u201d document at the documentation materials."},"analysis_info":{"response_rate":"The total response rate is 23%.\nIt's important to note that our response rates exclude phones out of service, those disconnected or busy after repeated attempts, and individuals' ineligible for the survey.
