| description | The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was diverse and disproportionate among nations, and population segments. The impacts of the disease and the containment strategies adopted are broad and cut across multiple facets of life, society, and the economy, which are intimately interlinked. Therefore, a large household survey was conducted to ascertain the socioeconomic impact and human behavior changes due to the pandemic and the containment strategies covering all provinces of Sri Lanka. The ramifications on mobility and human behavior, income, economic status, food consumption, education, access to health services and information, and cultural and psychological changes were explored, and the data are reported in this paper. The survey was conducted on 3020 households, selected using a multistage clustering technique, to assess the impacts of the pandemic through three distinctly identified waves/phases of the pandemic in Sri Lanka. This dataset will enable researchers and policymakers to analyze the impact of the pandemic through a multifaceted perspective enabling a more holistic approach to decision-making. |
