The Market Cities Network is the first international forum for markets of all kinds and the people committed to their success. This initiative brings together market operators, NGOs, funders, researchers, and more to create stronger and more resilient communities.

Since 1987, Project for Public Spaces has hosted 10 editions of the International Public Markets Conference, drawing together an international group of 400 leaders from all kinds of markets as well as strategic partners in the fields of public health, community development, food systems, and public policy.

The Market Cities Program curates this wide-ranging hub for research related to public markets, covering topics from developing a market network to resilience planning and infrastructure to diversifying access to economic opportunity.
