The Markets in Crises Community of Practice (MiC) provides an online forum for practitioners engaging with markets in emergency and recovery contexts to share ideas, experience, resources, and learning with the aim of improving market-based programming. Its members represent NGOs, multilateral agencies, academics, funders, and the private sector.

This website is a resource hub for market based programming in crises, with:

  • introductions to key concepts
  • training materials
  • sector-specific guidance
  • signposting to the best core assessment and monitoring tools
  • key humanitarian standards to work with

The site is also the new home for the Emergency Market Mapping and Analysis (EMMA) and Pre-Crisis Market Analysis (PCMA) Toolkits and associated training materials.
