a smaller population of the Shona community who live closer to the capital are being compared to a larger group of urban nationals spread across the country. This can also affect the differences between the Shona community data and the KIHBS data aside from statelessness. Comparisons were done only at the urban level, thus only urban Kenyan households at the national and county levels were compared to urban Shona households (see national sample size in Appendix B, Table B.2). BOX 2 Kenya COVID-19 rapid response phone surveys The Kenya RRPS is designed to respond to the urgent need for timely data and evidence to help monitor and mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The World Bank, together with the KNBS and UNHCR, and in collaboration with the University of California Berkeley, designed and implemented the high frequency phone survey to measure the socioeconomic impacts of the pandemic on nationals, refugees, and stateless people. The RRPS collects bimonthly data on knowledge about COVID-19, behavior changes, income loss, safety nets, access to medicine and food, employment, food security, coping mechanisms, and concerns. The RRPS recently completed the first of three data collection rounds, including a sample of about 1,250 refugees and stateless people in the Kalobeyei settlement, Kakuma camps, Dadaab camps, Nairobi, and the Shona community. This report includes selected preliminary results on health, education, and livelihoods for the Shona community, refugees living in urban Nairobi, and nationals, while providing relevant recommendations. More details on the Kenya RRPS as well as a results dashboard can be accessed through the Kenya COVID-19 tracker website (www.kenyacovidtracker.org).24 24 24 The statistics on nationals exclude refugees and Shona stateless persons. Thus, they differ slightly from statistics on the entire population of Kenya, which includes refugees and Shona stateless people, used in other publications based on the 2020 Kenya COVID-19 RRPS. 6  Understanding the Socioeconomic Conditions of the Stateless Shona Community in Kenya 10183_Shona Report.indd 6 12/14/20 2:56 PM
