The Market Analysis Unit is an independent project which provides development practitioners, policymakers and private sector actors in Myanmar with data and analysis to better understand the present and potential impacts of COVID-19, conflict and other crises on:

• Household purchasing power, including coping mechanisms, safety nets and access to basic needs;
• Supply chains, including trade, cross-border dynamics and market functionality (particularly as it relates to food systems);
• Financial services, including financial services providers, household and business access to finance and remittances; and
• Labor markets (formal and informal), with a focus on agricultural labor and low-wage sectors (e.g. construction, food service).
