Resilient Markets: market systems development in fragile and conflict affected settings
Resilient Markets: market systems development in fragile and conflict affected settings
23–27 Novembre 2020
Il corso è disponibile in English
In fragile and conflict affected areas (FCAS) households, businesses and communities can react to crises in ways that adversely impact their ability to rebuild markets and undermine longer term well-being. In tandem, humanitarian response and economic recovery programs can unintentionally disrupt and distort market systems.
In light of these challenges, there is increasing interest from all actors to develop and innovate programs that build resiliency in FCAS using market-based approaches. In order to serve communities in FCAS, it is crucial that practitioners, multi-lateral agencies, donors, governments and other stakeholders have access to training and resources that build skill sets and capacity for designing sustainable market systems.
The Resilient Markets training course is designed to meet this need.
