Responding to COVID-19 in Africa: Key findings from surveys in 20 countries

New report provides African governments real-time information and guidance to find the balance in Coronavirus response.

With the Partnership for Evidence-based Response to COVID-19 (PERC), a public-private partnership that supports evidence-based measures to reduce the impact of COVID-19 on African Union Member States, Ipsos conducted 20,990 interviews in 28 cities across 20 African Union Member States to understand reactions to the pandemic and to Public Health Social Measures (press release).

Responding to COVID-19 in Africa details an overview of the key survey research findings across the 20 Member States.

Summary reports for each of the 20 Member States are also available (see below).

Further details of the wider research program can be found on the Resolve to Save Lives site.
