Democratic Republic of the Congo - Results Monitoring Survey (RMS) - 2023

The RMS conducted in the Democratic Republic of the Congo between February and April 2023 aimed
to gather household-level data on forcibly displaced and stateless individuals. Its objective was to
monitor impact and outcome indicators related to education, healthcare, livelihoods, protection
concerns, shelter, and water and sanitation, contributing to UNHCR’s reporting against multi-year
strategies to various stakeholders.
The survey can be implemented in diverse operational contexts and utilizes a standard structured
questionnaire, adaptable for standalone use or integration with other data collection efforts. Data
collection includes indicators at both household and individual levels, ensuring statistical
representativeness.
The population of interest comprised refugees, asylum-seekers, internally displaced people (IDPs),
refugee returnees, and host communities, each sampled separately. Refugees and asylum-seekers were
sampled from UNHCR’s registration database (proGres), stratified by areas. Refugee returnees, IDPs,
and host communities were sampled using lists provided by the operation in each area, with systematic
sampling conducted if sampled households were unreachable. Limited data collection occurred in some
areas due to restricted lists or security concerns.
In total, 14,040 households were sampled, with 13,570 households interviewed. Of these, 5,456 out of
5,740 sampled refugee and asylum-seeker households were interviewed, along with 4,865 IDP
households, 949 refugee returnee households out of 1,090 sampled, and 2,300 host community
households out of 2,315 sampled. Data collection utilized Computer-Assisted Personal Interviews
(CAPI).
