Maxwell Stamp’s ongoing research aims to uncover which intervention design and implementation procedures offer better chances of facilitating systemic market change to bring impact at scale for women and men living in poverty. Funded by BEAM Exchange, the research will suggest recommendations for the design of new market systems development projects. More than 10 market systems projects are participating in the research across three continents and a wide range of economic sectors.
Even at a preliminary stage, the research has yielded fascinating insights into the ways that market systems projects have set about achieving impact at scale. The research suggests four areas where general practice of M4P/MSD projects could be refined in order to improve scaling up success rates:
- better strategic planning
- adopting a portfolio approach
- understanding the private sector perspective
- and more transparent and comprehensive reporting.
Join us on 28 July at 10am BST for a webinar to hear the research team present their initial findings. We would also like to hear from you on ways in which general practice could be improved. Read the blog to find out more.
