Unlike previous surveys that lacked comparable host-refugee data, K-LSRH includes both refugee and host communities, providing comprehensive insights into their living conditions and challenges. The first wave of K-LSRH was conducted between June 2022 and 2023, covering refugees in Kakuma Refugee Camp, Dadaab Refugee Complex, Kalobeyei Integrated Settlement, as well as urban refugees in Nairobi, Mombasa, and Nakuru. The survey instrument addresses various household level, individual-level, and children’s outcomes. It delves into less understood themes such as psychosocial wellbeing and trust, aiming to advance knowledge and programming in these areas.en-USCC BY-NC 3.0 IGOREFUGEE RESETTLEMENTREFUGEE SUPPORTMIGRATION POLICIES AND JOBSFORCED DISPLACEMENTJOBSFRAGILITY, CONFLICT AND VIOLENCEPOPULATION RESETTLEMENTSOCIAL COHESIONPOST-CONFLICT RECONSTRUCTIONPEACE OPERATIONS AND CONFLICT MANAGEMENTSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTJOBS STRATEGIESSOCIAL ASSISTANCETYPES OF BENEFICIARIESPOPULATION DISPLACEMENTSOCIAL PROTECTION AND LABORDECENT WORK AND ECONOMIC GROWTHSDG 8SUSTAINABLE CITIES AND COMMUNITIESSDG 11PEACE, JUSTICE AND STRONG INSTITUTIONSSDG 16Building Evidence to Enhance the Welfare of Refugees and Host Communities - Insights from the Kenya Longitudinal Socioeconomic Study of Refugees and Host CommunitiesReportWorld Bank10.1596/42104
