Overall objective:

In this case, the aim was to contribute to the implementation of the civil society support programme by supporting the Ministry of Finance, EDF National Authorising Officer and the Delegation of the European Union in the evaluation process of grant applications received under the EuropeAID/163-741IH/ACT/NE call for proposals.

Specific objectives:

This was particularly the evaluation of short notes in the first instance and full applications in the second instance. These were validated and approved by the parties involved, mainly within the Evaluation Committee and during the ex-ante control of the Delegation of the European Union.

The assessors carried out the technical evaluation of the summary notes provided by the contracting administration of the programme (PASOC III) in accordance with the guidelines of the call for proposals.

The assessors were also be responsible for evaluating complete applications (technical and budget evaluation).

The assessors had to write the technical evaluation grids at each step.

The evaluation of each note or complete application was the subject of two readings and did thus involve at least two assessors. The Head of Mission was responsible, among other things, for arbitrations in the event of evaluations (between assessors), the consistency and quality of all evaluations, and thus equal treatment of all applications. On the basis of the assessments by the assessors and following its arbitration in the event of divergent scores, the Head of Mission drafted response letters which were sent to each applicant. These letters were made available to the evaluation committee at the debriefing session.

As highlighted in the Revised Indicative Strategy Paper for Turkey 2014-2020, EU support to civil society has 3 objectives:

• Support the development of civil society allowing its more active participation in democratic policy and decision-making processes
• Promote a culture of fundamental rights and dialogue
• Enhance civil society dialogue and inter-cultural exchange between civil societies in Turkey and Europe

In particular, this evaluation focused on progress to date and, by explaining why progress happened or did not happen as planned, provided recommendations on how to improve the actions during their residual duration in order to achieve the expected objectives, taking into account problems and opportunities. They were also supposed to serve to prepare new actions and encompass both forward and backward-looking perspectives.

The main users of this evaluation are the EU Delegation to Turkey as well as the 6 implementing partners.
