Market Development in Niger Delta (MADE) was a DFID funded programme which raised the incomes of 154,225 poor people, 50 per cent of whom were women, by at least 15 per cent between September 2013 and February 2018. MADE uses the “Making Markets Work for the Poor (M4P)” approach to design systemic and sustainable interventions that generate pro-poor and inclusive economic growth in the non-oil sectors of the nine Niger Delta states. Based on the success of the fi rst phase, DFID funded MADE II, a two year project extension with two major components: market development activities in the Niger Delta which are designed to address systemic constraints in target markets and an investment portfolio in Edo State that seeks to identify and address livelihood and economic factors contributing to human traffi cking, forced labour and modern-day slavery (MDS) in the region, particularly in Edo state and northern Delta state.
