The aim was to make an evidence-based contribution to the ways in which governments, international organisations, NGOs, and businesses support the socio-economic inclusion of refugees. The survey collected data on income, expenditure, assets, health, education, migration, attitudes, and more, enabling us to explore a series of correlations. Drawing on this dataset, we have been able to explore themes such as the role of development indicators in influencing refugees\u2019 mobility choices and the determinants of variation in refugees\u2019 income levels. It has also allowed us to theorize a broader set of questions such as what is economically distinctive about refugees.  \n\nThis cross-sectional dataset contains data on refugees only. It combines household survey data from six separate data collection exercises:  \n\n2016: Kakuma Refugee Camp, Kenya \n2017: Nairobi, Kenya \n2018: Nakivale Refugee Settlement, Uganda  \n2018: Kampala, Uganda \n2018: Dollo Ado Refugee Camp, Ethiopia \n2018: Addis Ababa, Ethiopia ","geog_coverage":"Kenya (Kakuma, Nairobi), Uganda (Nakivale, Kampala), Ethiopia (Dollo Ado, Addis Ababa)","analysis_unit":"Household","universe":"All refugee households residing in the survey areas from Kenya, Uganda, and Ethiopia between 2016 and 2018.","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"The scope includes: \n- income \n- expenditure \n- assets \n- health \n- education \n- migration \n- attitudes","nation":[{"name":"Kenya","abbreviation":"KEN"},{"name":"Uganda","abbreviation":"UGA"},{"name":"Ethiopia","abbreviation":"ETH"}],"keywords":[{"keyword":"Refugee Economies"},{"keyword":"Kenya"},{"keyword":"Uganda"},{"keyword":"Ethiopia"},{"keyword":"Cross-country"},{"keyword":"2024"},{"keyword":"Household Survey"},{"keyword":"Economic Lives"}],"topics":[{"topic":"Protection"},{"topic":"Health"},{"topic":"Education"}],"coll_dates":[{"start":"2016-01-01","end":"2018-12-31"}]},"method":{"data_collection":{"sampling_procedure":"Various sampling strategies applied for each survey.","coll_mode":["Face-to-face [f2f]"],"research_instrument":"The questionnaire covered socio-economic indicators, including income, expenditure, assets, health, education, migration, and attitudes.","coll_situation":"Data was collected via face-to-face interviews using structured questionnaires.","data_collectors":[{"name":"University of Oxford, Refugee Studies Centre"},{"name":"Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC)"},{"name":"Administration for Refugee and Returnee Affairs (ARRA)"},{"name":"Relief Society of Tigray"},{"name":"ZOA"},{"name":"Women and Pastoralist Youth Development Organization"}]}},"data_access":{"dataset_use":{"cit_req":"University of Oxford, Refugee Studies Centre (2024).
