This international course is an introduction to how markets can be used as tools to alleviate poverty in a sustainable manner. The topic will be approached via two related questions, namely:
1. How can the poor effectively engage in market development?
2. How can the poor access markets better with their products?
The course introduces participants to the conceptual frameworks related to market development which can be used to analyse the market context and identify pro-poor development opportunities within it.
The course also provides practical tools and instruments to be used to develop appropriate market-driven policies, business programs and private sector development projects.
