Abstract

MigCOVID is a survey conducted by the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare, aiming at examining the effect of the coronavirus epidemic and related restrictive measures on the daily life, health, quality of life and mood, as well as experiences of service use among foreign born persons. This information will be used for evaluation of the societal effects of the coronavirus epidemic.

Implementation Participants of the Survey on wellbeing among foreign born population (FinMonik) and an additional sample of Somali born participants will be invited to take part in the survey. The data collection has ended. We would like to thank all of the participants! A prize draw will be conducted among all of the participants in the beginning of March.
