Getting prepared for the ex ante evaluation of the CAP Strategic Plan

The Good Practice Workshop organised by the European Evaluation Helpdesk for Rural Development, 'Getting prepared for the ex ante evaluation of the CAP Strategic Plan', took place on 21 March, 2019 in Brussels, Belgium.

Thematic Focus

The Good Practice Workshop has the overarching aim to raise awareness for evidence-based policy making by identifying good practice in using evaluation in the programming stage (ex ante evaluation). Specific objectives of the workshop include:

  • Provide a forum to discuss and learn lessons from the ex ante evaluation experiences gained in the current programming period 2014 – 2020.
  • Exchange good practices to capitalise on experiences and evaluation results for the preparation of the next programming period.
  • Identify challenges and needs for preparing the ex ante evaluation of the CAP Strategic Plan and develop suggestions to help MAs and evaluators in their ex-ante evaluation activities.
