This study was implemented by Save the Children in Myanmar (SCiM), who are currently running an emergency food security and livelihoods programme as part of the response to Cyclone Nargis. The EMMA pilot test seeks to better understand critical market systems for the population directly and indirectly affected by the cyclone and to enable SCiM to programme more effectively. At the same time we hope to learn from the pilot experiences in order to improve the toolkit itself.
