  <dc:description>The COVID-19 Policy Response Monitor for German Federal States builds on the idea and methodology of the Oxford Covid-19 Government Response Tracker (OxCGRT) and is adapted to the specific conditions of the German federal system (see Codebook).

The presented dataset contains a collection of 31 types of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) that were implemented in the 16 German federal states between March 12 and August 31, 2020. Depending on the level of strictness of the applied measures, an overall Stringency index as well as eight Sub-indices regarding Events and gatherings, Movement, Childcare and education, Business, Food and catering, Leisure facilities, Health sector, and Public hygiene have been calculated for each federal state.
