Call for Proposals: External Evaluation - Sisters of Code Cambodia

About Sisters of Code

Sisters of Code is a non-profit program implemented by IT Academy STEP Cambodia Institute, supported by Lichtenstein Development Service. We work to close the gender gap in technology in Cambodia  by:

• Running after-school coding clubs for girls across multiple provinces.

• Providing a Work Readiness Program for young women entering tech and digital jobs.

• Leading awareness activities that challenge stereotypes and promote girls in tech.

  
  

Purpose of the Evaluation

The evaluation will:

• Assess what results Sisters of Code is achieving for girls and young women (skills, confidence, aspirations, and pathways to further study or employment).

• Analyse how far the program addresses gender barriers and contributes to norm change.

• Review the strengths and weaknesses of the current model and partnerships.

• Provide clear recommendations for a possible next phase and for scaling and sustainability.

The final report is expected by 1 June 2026.

• Experience in Cambodia or similar Southeast Asian contexts; Khmer language capacity or a clear plan for translation.

• Excellent analytical and report-writing skills in English.

What to Submit

• Short technical proposal (approach, methods, sampling, workplan).
