Consultant(s) to conduct the final evaluation to assess the results of the project “Girls Ready For Future”

1. Introduction:

Founded in 1937, Plan International is a development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We strive to advance children’s rights and equality for girls all over the world. Plan International has been working in Vietnam since 1993. By June 2019, Plan International Vietnam has improved the lives of more than 1,300,000 children, their families and communities from over 131 communes in 10 provinces across the country. Our goal by 2026 is to reach 2 million girls from 1,875 ethnic communities in Vietnam so they can learn, lead, decide, and thrive.

The “Girls Ready for Future” project funded by Australia Government (via Plan Australia). This project seeks to enable young people in five provinces (Ha Giang, Lai Chau, Quang Binh, Quang Tri and Kon Tum), especially girls (aged 11-15 and 16-24) from ethnic minorities, to make autonomous and healthy decisions to stay in school and engage in decent career pathways. Young people will be provided access to career counselling, vocational training, and entrepreneurship opportunities. The focus of project has been majorly in education and specifically in schools through support for career education guidance and curriculum development interventions. The main approach and methods are innovative through piloting of a career guidance model in five Plan supported provinces with culturally appropriate adaptation linking TVET institutions with enterprises; promotion of parent engagement in career guidance and the application of a multi-disciplinary approach that engages stakeholders as key agents of change
