Series Information
This is the fourth wave of refugee and host community data collection under the RIMA methodology conducted in Uganda.
Abstract
In order to make the progressive Uganda refugees policy successful in the medium- and long-term, the refugees’ response needs to facilitate their inclusion in the country’s development agenda. No longer focusing exclusively on short-term, life-saving interventions, the response should act as a vector for refugees’ integration in the economy; improving the management of land, water, and natural resources; exploiting the socio-economic opportunities associated with the refugees’ presence, skills, and development; and strengthening the hosting districts’ capacity to absorb and manage these resources. The positive impact would affect refugees, host communities, and hosting districts alike, thus moving towards social and economic integration. In August 2017, FAO was asked by the Commissioner for Refugees (Office of the Prime Minister of Uganda, OPM) to support the implementation of a socio-economic analysis within the refugees’ settlements and host communities, with the aim of providing a comprehensive assessment of the current state of the refugees’ food security, well-being and resilience. Although refugees in Uganda are given land and mobility rights, their food security remains low, with a high dependency on food aid. The assumption was that by better understanding refugees’ preferences and livelihoods strategies which determine their resilience, it would be possible to unlock the development potential of the land, increase productivity and help them achieve independence and self-reliance. The Uganda 2021 Resilience Index Measurement and Analysis (RIMA) measures the food security and resilience of refugees and host communities in 11 Ugandan districts. The survey was administered between December 2021 and January 2022.

Sampling

Sampling Procedure
The sampling strategy of the fourth wave was to re-interview all the refugee and host households interviewed in the first wave (between 2017 and 2019) plus the households in the Koboko district visited for the first time in December 2019. The final dataset for the fourth round is composed of 5,636 of which 77 percent (4,343 households) are traceable within the panel) and 23 percents are replacements and new households in the panel.

To construct the panel, refer to the sampling documentation and links to the previous rounds of the data already published on the FAM catalogue. Note that the uhhidp variable available in all the rounds links households over time and should be used when constructing the panel.

Data Processing

Data Editing
The data were collected through computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) with digital tablets. The use of electronic devices reduces the duration of interviews, limits errors during the interview and data entry phases, and enables the collection of geographic information system (GIS) information at the household level. The data were transmitted daily through Kobo Toolbox, a suite of software tools for data collection in challenging environments, allowing for the use of remote data control protocols.
