Abstract

Nigeria was hit hard by the second wave of Covid-19, in part because government instructions were less well followed. The researchers first want to identify the social, economic and political factors that influence the perceptions and individual beliefs of Nigerians in the face of Covid-19. They will then examine how these perceptions and beliefs affect the behavior of the population towards health measures. In summary : a project aimed at better understanding the political, economic and social factors influencing the individual beliefs and perceptions of Nigerians in the face of Covid-19 and the way in which these define their behavior.
