Marchés
Lors de la conception d’une intervention humanitaire et de la prise de décisions quant à l’utilisation des transferts monétaires, l’analyse générale des options de réponse doit inclure une analyse de marché. Il est prouvé qu’offrir un soutien ciblant le fonctionnement des marchés accélère la reprise et accroît la résilience dans les zones affectées par une catastrophe.
De nombreuses organisations ont investi dans la mise au point d’outils visant à faciliter l’analyse de marché et réfléchissent à la mise en place de programmes basés sur les marchés plus holistiques. Elles envisagent des interventions tirant profit du marché (basées notamment sur des transferts monétaires aux populations affectées), ainsi que des interventions soutenant directement les marchés (comme l’octroi de subventions conditionnelles aux vendeurs/euses pour la remise en condition du marché).
