Market support interventions
Market support - examples
The tip sheet – origins & future!
Chat Box: What challenges have you experienced
implementing market support?
• Primary and secondary data collation (27 documents and interviews with 14 humanitarian practitioners)
• Based on existing standards including the Minimum Economic Recovery Standards (MERS), Minimum Standards for Market Analysis (MISMA) and CaLP's Programme Quality Toolbox
• Tested by members of CaLP’s Markets WG

The Market Support Tip Sheet
What is the market support tip sheet?
What’s in the tip sheet?
Plus:Field examples
Sample tips – Situation analysis
Sample tips – Monitoring
Why is market support important?
• Do no harm
• Speed and coverage
• Support communities with their pre existing coping mechanisms and preferences in order to access + use WASH services and goods
• Engage with existing market actors – promote market recovery (negate parallel NGO led markets)
• Opportunity for public-private partnerships
• Increased quality and quantitative outcomes
• Capacity building – 2 way – humanitarian agencies + market actors
• Opportunity to bridge the gap between short and long term interventions
• Cost efficiencies
Why is market support important?
WASH Market Use / Support Experiences
LEBANON:
Market use
• EMMA study recommended water vouchers for water trucking (plus in-kind water tanks), desludging (services) and WASH NFIs (goods) in the Bekaa valley targeting the Informal Tented Settlements hosting the Syrian refugees
• Complexities – non revenue water, water for livelihoods in the Bekaa vast (fruits and vegetables), Bekaa Water Establishment unwilling to connect ITSs to the public network, BWE critical of the NGOs supporting the illegal private water truckers
What do to do given the protracted Syria crisis, lack of funding and scale of Syrian refugees in Lebanon? Can we regulate the water market system – i.e. the private water truckers?
Market Support
✓Negotiated water price ($6.5 to $4 per m3) and attempts to regulate the private water truckers for supporting the ITSs (similar discussions for sanitation)
✓ Link private water truckers to an established water extraction point from the Bekaa Water Establishment (rate paid by NGOs – % for trucker, % BWE)
✓ Performance indicators (quality, access, use): between communities, BWE, water truckers
WASH Market Support Experiences – Philippines
(Eastern Samar and Bantayan)
Supply
Redesign of toilet products available, increased cost efficiency, diversity of materials used, quality and number of choices
Local masons trained on toilet construction, and small business trainings
Health Workers trained as sales agents, earning commission for toilets sold and clients referred to micro finance
Support for suppliers to buy and store materials in bulk
Enabling EnvironmentTraining for ‘WASH enablers’ targeting LG employees, rural sanitary inspectors etc.
Website created as an advocacy and engagement tool for other microfinance branches and potential partners
Business mentoring sessions for WASH related enterprises –financial management, selling, marketing
Masons opportunities to access scholarships from a national training academy
DemandSocial marketing – market fairs, speeches during barangay events, radio adverts, posters, brochures
FinanceCooperative developed a savings and loan account (SAVED) dedicated to toilet building/upgrading.
Market Tip Sheet
• Provides real time/field orientated examples to enable WASH and other sector practitioners to think out of the box
• Offers a logical sequence of stages where field works can/should consider markets
• Pragmatic where the evidence gaps are (e.g. monitoring)
• Emphasis on supply and demand, however for WASH a greater emphasis is required on the quality of services, performance indicators measured and accounted for between communities, market actors etc.

Supporting Markets to Recover – CRS Nepal
Experience
The Context
• A devastating earthquake of 7.8 magnitude hit Nepal on 25 April 2015
• Large scale damage to lives and property
• Local economy paralyzed
• Access to essential goods and services severely restricted
• Markets near urban areas recovered; but secondary markets continued to
suffer
• Communities and traders in remote, hilly areas were the worst affected
Rapid Market Assessment & Analysis
• CRS conducted RMA in May 2015
• Collaborated with Chambers of Commerce, Market Management Committees
and vendors
• Current markets are able to meet 30-50% of demand for essentials goods
(CGI sheets, construction material, food, clothes, medical supplies, mobile
vouchers etc)
• Vendors lacked access to external support from Government
or INGOs
Intervention Design
• Secondary markets, which are a key link between primary and cluster
markets, were targeted
• Vendors trading in essential goods and services targeted

Key Lessons Learned
• Collaboration with market stakeholders helps in better and quicker diagnosis
of vendor needs and preferred support modalities
• Flexible support package helps meet diverse needs of vendors
• Developing a light beneficiary registration process accelerates the response
• Integrating preparedness aspects into short-term market support
interventions has potential to increase resilience of traders to future shocks
• Monitoring outcome level changes would help in learning impact and better
design future projects
The TIP SHEET – What We Could have Done
Different
Shake “traditional” vulnerability criteria
- Better understand catchment area of market actors
Long term implications of market support
What could be monitored?
- Analyze and select what’s best for the project
