The purpose of this publication is to provide practical guidance on market-based programming (MBP) in humanitarian WASH responses. This guidance is intended for:
- Humanitarian WASH practitioners
- Cash and markets practitioners
- Humanitarian business support teams supporting WASH programmes
- WASH Cluster/Sector coordinators
This document introduces concrete steps that can be followed and implemented in line with the key phases of the humanitarian programme management cycle:
- Assessment
- Response analysis
- Programme design and implementation
- Monitoring
- Preparedness
Each phase is presented as an individual chapter, with a final chapter focused on coordination in relation to MBP. Coordination applies to all phases of the cycle.
This guidance is aligned with the GWC Position Paper on Cash & Markets and with the GWC Evidence Building Study on MBP for WASH. It replaces a previous version of the guidance (circulated in 2019) and additionally contributes to the GWC capacity building strategy on MBP.
The guidance is available in additional languages:
