Sample Frame, Households [sf/hh]
This dataset is the fifth round of UNHCR’s Intention Surveys with refugees from Ukraine, implemented in partnership with Ipsos SA. Data collection was conducted between January and February 2024 and includes close to 4,000 refugee households hosted across countries in Europe. The survey includes a longitudinal component, with part of the sample having participated in previous rounds. A mixed methodological approach was used, combining two data collection modes and mixed sampling designs. The anonymized dataset includes household- and individual-level data and supports inter-agency planning and evidence-based response related to refugee intentions, returns, and durable solutions.
