Tonga High Frequency Phone Survey of Households 2022, Round 2

The phone survey was conducted to gather data on the socio-economic impacts of COVID-19 crisis, as well as the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcanic eruption and tsunami in Tonga. Round 2 interviewed 2,503 households both in urban and rural regions of the country from July 2022 to August 2022. Survey topics included employment and income, food security, coping strategies, access to health services, asset ownership, and preparedness.
Purpose of Round 2 survey was to continue tracking the impact of the crises after Round 1, which was completed in April, 2022 - May, 2022. Additionally, round 2 survey besides the household information, gathers data on individual level that was not included in Round 1. Two individual datasets explore adult employment and child education.
While these findings are not without their caveats due to the lack of baseline data, constraints of the mobile phone survey methodology, and data quality constraints, they represent the best estimates to date and supplement other data on macroeconomic conditions, exports, firm-level information, etc. to develop an initial picture of the impacts of the crises on the population.
