The study was established by four partner organizations: the Institute for Employment Research (IAB) of the Federal Employment Agency (BA), the Federal Institute for Population Research (BiB), the Family Research and Demographic Analysis (FReDA) project, the Research Center of the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF-FZ) and the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) at DIW Berlin. It builds on the “IAB-BAMF-SOEP Survey of Refugees,” which has been running since 2016, and the Family Research and Demographic Analysis (FReDA) project.

Data Set „IAB-BiB/FReDA-BAMF-SOEP, Version UKR, 2022-2023“

The published data set includes survey data and generated indicators of 11,754 Ukrainian refugees between the ages of 18 and 70, who took part in a comprehensive social science survey between August and October 2022. A second survey wave with 6,835 respondents was conducted between January and March 2023. 

To generate the random sample for the project, Germany’s Central Register of Foreign Nationals was used to identify 100 German municipalities where large numbers of Ukrainian refugees were registered. Ukrainian refugees in these municipalities were selected randomly and invited to participate in the survey. The fieldwork for the study was being conducted by the Institute for Applied Social Sciences (infas) based on an online questionnaire. Respondents were also given the option of completing the questionnaire on paper.
