Description: These datasets contain the results of three surveys carried out in Paraguayan border cities (Asunción, Ciudad del Este and Encarnación) to inquire about the socioeconomic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and its containment measures. They provide information regarding employment relations, impacts on household income, incidence of COVID-19 infections, home-schooling, State aid and community organizing, border relations, care and domestic work, as well as views on lockdown measures. <br> <br> The surveys are part of the project "Consequences of the Covid-19 crisis on Social Inequalities and Convivial Relations in Three Paraguayan Border Cities", which also applied qualitative methods by carrying out focus-groups with residents of Asunción, Ciudad del Este and Encarnación. The following questions guided the research: To what extent has access to protection measures against COVID-19 been affected by regional differences and/or hierarchies based on gender and class? How have containment measures (different stages of lockdown and mobility restrictions) affected income, access to education and other basic services, as well as the general well-being of the population, considering regional, gender, and class differences? What repercussions have the containment measures had within households, considering the distribution of domestic and care work, as well as the use of domestic space? What differences can be identified between households occupying different positions in the social structure? What impact have containment measures had on community relations, considering geographical and social differences? <br> <br> By focusing on Paraguay, the project enables a deeper understanding of how people in countries with high levels of inequality, elevated degrees of informality and lack of social security were affected by COVID-19 containment measures, and how the population organized to cope with these difficult circumstances. <br> <br> The datasets (in SPSS, one per city) are in Spanish. For ease of use, we provide a description of the variables in English in a separate file. The original questionnaire and a translation into English, as well as a document with technical information on the sampling method, expansion factors and social stratification model are also available for download.
