read moreUnderstanding, using and supporting markets in emergencies Bangkok April 13th to 17th 2020 This course provides original insights and knowledge on market-based programming and market monitoring in humanitarian settings. It offers a comprehensive understanding as to what market analysis and monitoring can and cannot achieve to improve humanitarian programming. Instead of focusing on a single tool, it provides an overview of the existing approaches and equips participants with the skills and confidence to pick the tool or tools that are best fit for their purposes.. The course is interactive (i.e. minimum slide show presentation), drawing on participants’ experiences and knowledge. Time will be dedicated to address practical challenges that participants may have faced in their current positions. The course is delivered in English. We limit the number of participants to 20 to ensure small and participatory group. Course objectives By the end of the five days training participants will be able to: 1/ Explain the different market-related concepts and terminologies; 2/ Discuss what market data can be used for in emergency settings; 3/ Set the scope for market analysis and market monitoring; 4/ Decide which market assessment tools and approaches to use; 5/ Support a market assessment exercise; 6/ Use market data to inform pre- and post-crisis humanitarian responses; 7/ Identify which overall skills are transferable to market assessment and analysis. Course structure Training will run from 9am to 5pm every day, except for the last day, which will end at 4pm. Each day is organised in four blocks, separated by a lunch break and two coffee breaks, one in the morning and another in the afternoon. From the second day onwards, each day will begin with a review of the topics covered the day before to ensure that the concepts, tools, and approaches were fully understood. Each day ends with a period of reflection, evaluation, and questions. Participants will be actively encouraged to take part in classroom discussions and group work.
