  • UMD Survey Offers Real-Time Data-Driven Glimpse Into Ukrainian Well-being
Ukrainian Flag

A new blog post from the Social Data Science Center (SoDa) outlines how the Global Covid-19 Trends and Impact Survey (CTIS) is shedding new light on how Ukrainians’ health and well-being has been impacted by Russia’s attack. 

The CTIS, a collaboration between the Joint Program in Survey Methodology and the Center for Geospatial Information Science (CGIS), in partnership with Meta, has been collecting data from around the world since April 2020 to inform stakeholders and public health officials of the pandemic’s spread. The CTIS’ measures of physical and mental distress provide a data-driven impression of the worries and struggles of the Ukrainian people and those in surrounding countries. The CTIS is one of the few worldwide surveys that allows near real-time assessment of physical and mental health, worries about finances and food supply, and other factors. It is also one of the few surveys to continue operating and conducting surveys in Ukraine.

“Being able to capture public wellbeing on a day-to-day basis and on such a fine-grained, geographic scale has been a great strength of the UMD CTIS through the pandemic. We hope to partner with Meta going forward to continue to provide signals on rapidly changing events,” says Kathleen Stewart, director of the CGIS.
