    Abstract

    The 2023 Results Monitoring Survey (RMS) in the Republic of Congo aimed to monitor key impact and outcome indicators related to education, healthcare, livelihoods, protection concerns, shelter, and water and sanitation for refugees and asylum seekers. The survey was conducted between January 17 and February 9, 2023, targeting 1,900 households across Brazzaville, Pointe-Noire, Likouala, and Cuvette. The survey achieved interviews with 1,473 households (77.53% coverage), with data collected through Computer-Assisted Personal Interviews (CAPI). The results contribute to an evidence base for UNHCR’s multi-year strategies in the country.

    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    The 2023 RMS in the Republic of Congo employed a probability-based stratified sampling method. The sampling frame was drawn from UNHCR’s registration database, targeting both asylum seekers and refugees. The survey aimed to interview 1,900 households across four departments: Brazzaville, Pointe-Noire, Likouala, and Cuvette. Households were stratified by geographic area to ensure a representative sample for each region. Due to logistical challenges in accessing some locations, the sample size was adjusted during the fieldwork. In total, 1,473 households were successfully interviewed, representing a response rate of 77.53%.
    Response Rate

    The survey aimed to reach 1,900 households but successfully interviewed 1,473, achieving a response rate of 77.53%. The lower response rate was mainly due to logistical difficulties in accessing certain remote areas, which affected the ability to cover the entire planned sample
