NIDS-CRAM forms part of a broader study called the Coronavirus Rapid Mobile Survey (CRAM) which aims to inform policy using rapid reliable research on income, employment and welfare in South Africa, in the context of the global Coronavirus pandemic. The study is run by researchers from the University of Stellenbosch, University of Cape Town (UCT) and University of the Witwatersrand (Wits). The NIDS-CRAM survey data collection and production operations were implemented by the Southern Africa Labour and Development Research Unit (SALDRU) at UCT. The data is collected with Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI), with data collection repeated over several months.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2020-05-07","end":"2020-06-27","cycle":"Wave 1"},{"start":"2020-07-13","end":"2020-08-13","cycle":"Wave 2"},{"start":"2020-11-02","end":"2020-12-13","cycle":"Wave 3"}],"nation":[{"name":"South Africa","abbreviation":"zaf"}],"geog_coverage":"The survey had national coverage.
