Study on Legal Instruments and Lessons Learned from the Evaluations Managed by the Joint Evaluation Unit : Final Report ; Volume 1: Final Summary Report

The overall purpose of this study was to see what lessons could be learnt from the past experience of EC external action programmes that might be useful in the design and formulation of the EU’s next multi-annual budget. In addition, the study also sought to identify lessons which could improve the design of future evaluations.
