The objective of the third round of the World Bank high frequency mobile phone survey was to measure the continued socioeconomic impacts of COVID-19 in Papua New Guinea, including on livelihoods, food security, and public safety and security. The survey consisted of the following modules: Basic Information, Vaccine, Employment and Income, Food Access and Food Security, Health, Public Trust and Security, and Assets and Wellbeing. The questions on employment and income were asked to the respondent and to the household head if different from the respondent.
Two rounds of the HFPS were completed in June 2020 (Round 1) and December 2020 - January 2021 (Round 2).
The third round is a joint data collection by UNICEF and World Bank combining two surveys: the third round of the High Frequency Mobile Phone Survey (HFMPS) conducted by the World Bank, and the second round of the Social Challenges and Hardship in PNG survey conducted by UNICEF-PNG. Topics include awareness of COVID-19, Employment and Income, Coping strategies, Public trust and security, Service delivery, and Child discipline. The World Bank Survey was mainly covered by the first phase of round 3 data collection (3.1), and the UNICEF-PNG survey was mainly covered by the data collected in the second phase of round 3 (3.2).
