Evaluations

Welcome to the online evaluation library! It contains evaluation studies on ERDF and Cohesion Fund carried out by the Member States. Here you will find various evaluations searchable by categories including country, theme and language.

The idea is to promote exchange of experience and good practice among Member States in the area of evaluation of cohesion policy. For every study we aim to provide a short summary in English with details about study design, methods used and evaluation results. In the category "Regio Selection"you will find studies rated by the REGIO Evaluation team as evaluations of very good quality.

In this section you will find those evaluations which contain summaries in English. Since the majority of studies produced in the Member States are written in their respective languages, providing a summary in English is a practical way of sharing findings and lessons learned with the evaluation community across Europe. In addition, for every study we aim to provide a short description with details about study design, methods used and the key evaluation results.

Managing Authorities who would like their evaluations to be published in Regio online library are welcome to contact the Evaluation Unit of DG for Regional Policy. E-mail:  regio-eval@ec.europa.eu
