EU consumer programme - evaluation

The 2014-2020 consumer programme contributes to protecting health, safety and the legal and economic interests of consumers across the EU.

Its actions aim to support consumer protection objectives where they cannot be sufficiently achieved by Member States acting alone due to the cross-border nature of the issues involved.

This call wants to assess the effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, coherence and EU added value of the actions funded under the programme.
