Grants and Crowdfunding
Coronasurveys is a collaborative effort between individuals and research institutions (you can read about the team here) who operate on a purely voluntary basis for the work done.
The project requires funding to:
- Maintain the servers, the surveys, and the website,
- Promote the surveys based on indirect reporting,
- Collect responses from participants via paid services.
- Analyze the data, devise new algorithms, and program them.
- Publish the scientific results achieved.
This funding has been obtained until now via research grants and crowdfunding.
We are gratefully accepting donations to continue the work we are doing. In particular, we will be using the funds received to collect more data about the prevalence of COVID-19 in different countries with our own surveys based on indirect reporting (the Network Scale-up Method). You can follow the results and estimates we are obtaining on the Global Estimates page and in the project GitHub.
The list of grants, patrons, and donors is shown and regularly updated here.
