Czechia - Socio-Economic Insights Survey (SEIS) - 2024

The 2024 SEIS in Czechia provides a comprehensive assessment of the needs and vulnerabilities of refugees from Ukraine. Conducted as part of the annual interagency regional process led by UNHCR, the survey supports the Regional Refugee Response Plan (RRP) for the Ukraine Situation. By addressing key areas such as protection, health, education, shelter, livelihoods, and food security, it delivers essential data to inform evidence-based planning and ensure the diverse needs of refugee groups are met.

Data collection took place from May to July 2024 and followed a purposive sampling approach. While not random, the methodology was designed to reflect the geographical and gender distribution of the refugee population using Temporary Protection (TP) data from the Ministry of Interior. Enumerators worked within these parameters, using the snowball method to identify respondents who matched the criteria.

The survey was a collaborative effort by UNHCR and the International Organization for Migration. Its findings will inform strategic planning and resource allocation to improve the welfare and resilience of refugees in Czechia.
