Digital Livelihoods in Ethiopia - Final Evaluation
Bodhi conducted a mixed-methods final evaluation of the Conrad Hilton Foundation-funded Digital Livelihood Program in Ethiopia. The project aimed to empower both refugees and the host community by facilitating access to the digital economy through remote work opportunities. It focused on imparting advanced digital skills to foster seamless integration into the digital workforce, with the overarching goal of empowering youth to thrive in the digital economy and remote work context, creating long-term impact and employment outcomes. The evaluation adopted a gender-responsive, inclusive, and participatory approach using both qualitative and quantitative methods. These included Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), Key Informant Interviews (KIIs), and a quantitative endline survey. This approach was paired with a thorough review of existing project documentation and baseline data. Structured along the dimensions of the OECD-DAC criteria, Bodhi triangulated multiple data sources to provide a robust endline for the project.
