3. Livelihoods and Coping through the Pandemic

In this part of the report, we focus on the pandemic period from March 2020 until February 2021 and compare the pandemic period with the pre-pandemic period. For this section of the analysis, we mainly relied on the findings from the analysis of PDM7, PDM8, PDM10 and PDM11 cross-sectional datasets collected between January 2019 and January 2021 and the analysis of IVS1 dataset collected between August 2020 and February 2021. Findings from the analysis of these quantitative datasets were also accompanied by findings emerging from the analysis of FGDs carried out by IFRC and TRC in July 2020 and web scraped data originating from Kizilaykart’s public Facebook page.
