Poll Report #18, June 2019

This report presents the results of a population survey based on 3,017 one-one-one interviews conducted in April and May 2019 with randomly selected adults across urban centers in Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. The margin of sampling error is ±5 percentage points at the 95% confidence level. For this poll, we over-sampled the neighborhood of Katwa in Butembo as it has become a hot spot for the control of the Ebola epidemic.

This poll is part of a series of polls that is being conducted to provide reliable data and analysis on peace, security, justice and re-construction in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The project is a joint initiative of the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative (HHI) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), in collaboration with MONUSCO Civil Affairs. HHI is responsible for the data collection, and independent analysis, and reporting of the results, in collaboration with partners at the Université Libre des Pays des Grands Lacs, Université Catholique de Bukavu, and Université de Bunia.
