Abstract [en]
This report aims to provide Fojo and its project partners with data and perspectives on gender in the media workplace, which can help ensure gender is integrated throughout project activities. in Cambodia project partners are the Cambodian Centre for Independent Media (CCIM) and the Cambodia Communications Institute (CCI).
The report includes a brief overview of Cambodia’s current political situation, national-level gender issues, and media industry, including the industry’s scale and levels of media freedom. This provides context to interpret the findings on gender dynamics within the media sector itself.
As described under ‘Methodology’ below, the data are both qualitative and quantitative, combining focus group discussions and an extended survey. The researchers hope the data can meet the goal of informing and supporting curriculum design and delivery, whether in ‘technical’ skills or in broader gender awareness and policy; and in supporting the gender policies of both partners and Fojo.

Note
Note: The initial terms of reference also included examining the status, barriers, and issues facing ethnic minority journalists. However initial enquiries, including of relevant authorities and others on the ground, showed an extreme lack of data on the proportion of ethnic minority journalists working in the sector, to the point where even locating them to include in the research activities – invitations to discussions or for survey dissemination – would be challenging. For practical reasons within the timeframe, this cohort was therefore dropped with the understanding that the research itself would likely reveal contacts that could be followed up in future efforts as appropriate.
