Background |
|
Youth unemployment rate in Cambodia is only 3.3% and an adult unemployment rate only 1.1%. Yet, the vast majority of the labor force works in the informal sector. Although estimates for the informal sector are not available, it is likely that most of the vulnerable workers are in the informal economy, where earnings are low, there is no access to social protection or security of job or income, and labor standards are usually poor. Furthermore, women are predominantly at higher risk than men to remain in vulnerable employment and are more likely to be engaged in informal employment. The Multi-media Initiative for Youth (MIY) project is established to support the Cambodian young people (aged 15-30) to improve their knowledge and efficacy (confidence in their ability), individually and collectively, to work together better among themselves and with older people to achieve common goals. The project has been implemented in two phases. The phase I was implemented from November 2014 to June 2016 and phase II from July 2016 to December 2018. The project is co-funded by the Swedish Government and UNDP with. the BBC Media Action is the main Implementing Partner of the project. The project has undertaken two major activities, which include: 1) Delivery of youth-oriented employment education through multi-media platforms such as TV, radio and social media; programmes; and outreach activities; 2) Capacity development for Cambodian youth through capacity strengthening activities with the National Employment Agency. In 2016, UNDP Cambodia conducted a Mid-term Review (MTR) of the MIY project in order to assess the overall progress towards project intended objectives, CPAP and UNDAF outcomes and to inform BBC Media Action and UNDP about necessary adjustments and future directions. The findings from MTR were used to adjust the existing project approach and arrangement to maximize the impacts of the project. According to the project document, a qualitative project evaluation is further needed to assess the overall achievements at the end of the project in light of the evolving of country context and recommend possible intervention in preparation for the development of the next phase of the project.

The evaluation will also look at how the project identified, managed and mitigated risks and will provide practical recommendations concerning the improvement of future project effectiveness.

The evaluation will provide practical recommendations regarding how to improve the efficiency, as required. Impact: the consultant is expected to analyze both how capacity has been developed and how project achievements contribute to future strengthening of capacities both the youths and national institutions. Sustainability: The evaluation will assess how the project’s achievements contribute to sustainability by engaging appropriate Government, non-Government and community level stakeholders.
