Behavioural Science
The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to highlight a pressing need to use social and behavioural data alongside biomedical data to mount an effective response. Timely insights into people’s changing knowledge, attitudes and behaviours help to ensure that the response is tailored to the needs of the population. Few countries are capturing social and behavioural data in a way that meets the needs of the country response teams. In response to this situation, WHO has developed the “Social and Behavioural Insights COVID-19 Data Collection Tool for Africa”. Alongside the tool is a free online training and a case study.
