Editor's Notes
- #4: Our definitions: Systemic thinking: Markets are complex systems of interdependent market actors. In order to develop markets sustainably it is necessary to look at the market system as a whole and understand how market actors interact with each other. This perspective uncovers the most effective ways to create deep and lasting changes to the way the system works. Participation : When market actors come together in an environment of high trust, they are best placed to assess the market system of which they are all a part they have the strongest incentives to strengthen the system to make it work better for them and their collaborative actions are most likely to have lasting structural impacts. Facilitation : Our role as grant-based actors should be to provide temporary support that builds conditions and for market actors to improve their market system now and capabilities to continue doing so and in the future.
