Market-Based Livelihoods Interventions for Refugees and Host Communities

Apr 8, 2019 | by

SEEP Members benefit from a 10% discount.

SEEP is excited to announce that our members can now receive a 10% discount on the ITC ILO course - Market-Based Livelihoods Interventions for Refugees and Host Communities - taking place in Turin, Italy on April 8-12, 2019 at the International Training Centre of the International Labour Organization.


Why this Course?

More people than ever before are affected by forced displacement - by the end of 2016, the number of people who have been forced to flee from their homes as a result of persecution, conflict, violence, or human rights violations reached 65.6 million. Among them, nearly 22.5 million are refugees.

Providing refugees with an opportunity to work and earn a living is one of the most effective ways to help them rebuild their lives, enable them to contribute to their host communities, and prepare them for what solution ultimately becomes available – whether it be a return home or integration in their countries of asylum or in a third country.

Until recently, the vast majority of livelihoods programmes for refugees have focused primarily on skills development, not necessarily informed by market demand and dynamics. These interventions have led to little impact and have proven to be economically unsustainable in many cases and particularly when implemented on a large scale. Humanitarian and development actors are therefore increasingly recognizing that livelihood interventions for refugees need to be based on a solid understanding of market trends and demand, and identify ways to develop markets for both, refugees and host communities.

What Will You Learn?

This training has been initiated and developed by the ILO and the UNHCR as a response to a lack of specialized training on market-based livelihood interventions for refugees. It is based on the “Making markets work for the poor” (M4P) approach and disseminates tools and good practices learned from joint UNHCR-ILO projects.

By the end of the training, participants will be able to:

  • understand the M4P approach and its relevance for refugees,
  • design and facilitate market-based livelihood programmes that are economically viable and that comply with refugees’ protection needs,
  • apply good practices from real-life case studies.

SEEP Members benefit from a 10% discount.
