Company Profile: SoCha (a word
created by combining the terms Social and Change) is an independent Monitoring,
Evaluation and Learning (ME&L) firm that provides bespoke solutions to
social challenges.
We are a veteran-owned small business, registered in the United

globally and have a well-established network across Africa and Asia.
Since our inception in 2010, we have grown from a consortium of

development assistance, to a full-fledged ME&L services firm that
specializes in advancing innovative methodologies and changing the way donors
find solutions to social problems.
