Program Background
The CAPRED Facility is Australia’s flagship bilateral economic development program in Cambodia, focusing on economic recovery and resilience over the next four years, with a possible three-year extension.
The Facility supports Cambodia in implementing a range of necessary economic interventions and reforms to maintain the country’s economic transition. These interventions and reforms are primarily aimed at encouraging more productive and inclusive public and private investment, which promotes a resilient, inclusive and sustainable economy (RISE).
CAPRED interventions fall under three technical components including: Agriculture and Agro-processing; Trade, Investment and Enterprise Development and Infrastructure Development; and one Cross-Cutting component comprising: Gender Equality, Disability and Social Inclusion (GEDSI), Climate resilience, and Policy.
Context and Rationale
The Pentagonal Strategy – Phase I (PS1) is the Royal Government of Cambodia’s flagship policy framework for the 7th mandate (2023–2028), guiding national action toward growth, employment, equity, efficiency, and sustainability, and setting the path to high-income status by 2050. To track implementation, the Committee for Monitoring and Evaluation (CME-PS1) was established under the Office of the Council of Ministers to coordinate and assess progress using the PS1 M&E Framework endorsed in 2024, which includes 39 strategic and reform KPIs.
Monitoring reports for 2024 and 2025 show early results but also highlight system challenges: incomplete or inconsistent data, absence of a shared theory of change to guide causal analysis, and weak coordination leading to fragmented reporting.
The Mid-Term Evaluation (MTE) will therefore take a process-evaluation approach, examining implementation mechanisms, data systems, and coordination arrangements rather than long-term impacts.
- Support evaluation design and framework development
- Work closely with CME to prepare the MTE evaluation framework.
- Review the PS1 M&E Framework, monitoring reports (2024–2025), and CME’s MTE concept note.
- Provide technical advice to ensure the evaluation design follows international process-evaluation practice.
- Help CME define the evaluation focus and priority areas.
- Strengthen Theory of Change (ToC) development
- Collaborate with CME to articulate ToCs for selected strategic objectives or thematic areas.
- Ensure alignment between PS1 logic, NSDP, sector strategies, and BSPs.
- Identify data gaps and institutional constraints affecting evaluability and propose practical solutions.
- Integrate GEDSI considerations across all ToC elements.
- Advise on data collection and analysis
- Guide the CME team to design questionnaires, sampling strategies, and interview guides.
- Guide the CME team in planning and conducting data collection (surveys, KIIs, FGDs), ensuring methodological consistency.
- Ensure data quality, validity, and alignment with MTE objectives.
- Provide guidance and work closely with the CME team on data analysis
- Ensure GEDSI considerations are integrated into data collection, including in sampling, so that the evaluation captures the experiences and viewpoints on different groups.
- Institutional coordination and capacity strengthening
- Support CME in establishing and facilitating an MTE Reference Group (CME, line ministries, NIS, DPs).
- Provide guidance on approaches for cross-ministerial collaboration and participatory evaluation.
- Strengthen CME’s capacity to manage evaluation processes and quality assurance.
- Reporting and quality assurance
- Provide technical guidance and review and detailed feedback on the Inception Report, Draft MTE Report, and Final Report.
- Help CME prepare and conduct validation workshops.

- Master's Degree in or higher in economics, public policy, development studies, or evaluation.
- Professional experience in program evaluation, preferably in governance, public policy, or economic reform for 15 years as a minimum
- Proven track record in designing and leading mid-term or process evaluations for complex multi-sectoral strategies (e.g., national development or public sector reform).
- Demonstrated expertise in Theory of Change, evaluability assessment, and mixed-method evaluations.
- Strong familiarity with international practices on mid-term evaluation and application in Southeast Asian contexts.
- Prior experience with Cambodia’s M&E system and/or regional experience in policy evaluation is an asset.
- Excellent skills in stakeholder consultation, qualitative and quantitative data analysis, and report writing.
