Evaluation of the Civil Society Organisations and Local Authorities thematic programme (2014-2019)

The purpose of this evaluation is to provide an independent assessment of the EU support to Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and Local Authorities (LAs) given through the CSO-LA Thematic Programme. The evaluation assesses:

1. the relevance of the EU’s cooperation strategies in relation to CSOs and LAs;
2. the results achieved;
3. the consistency with regional and national programming;
4. the value added of EU interventions and
5. the coordination, complementary and coherence across EU/Member State/other development partner interventions.
