THE NETWORK, ITS AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
This network has been established as an offshoot of a DFID-funded research project
“BUILDING A FOOD MARKETING POLICY EVIDENCE BASE IN NIGERIA”
The project runs from July 2004 to November 2005 and aims to help build
an evidence base regarding urban market institutions and pro-poor
growth in the Nigerian food sector, using a networked research
approach. The following three core topics are prioritised in this
research:
1. Understanding transport markets: efficiency of transport markets and
means to improved market access.
2. Understanding urban food markets: how can such markets best supply
the urban poor consumer with good quality food at affordable prices.
3. Understanding the linkages between different markets – transport
markets, credit markets, labour markets, food markets - and making
linkages in these markets across the formal and informal sectors.
The network has been established as a means of facilitating
communication among researchers working on this networked study and
others with an interest in Nigerian market access issues. We aim to
continue this network beyond the life of the project in order to
disseminate project information and related material on formal and
informal institutions which currently shape Nigerian marketing.
If you would like further information on the project please contact Gina Porter: r.e.porter@durham.ac.uk
