Development Policy

ADELANTE 2 is the EU's LAC regional programme that aims at supporting the achievement the Agenda 2030 goals through triangular cooperation.

The ADELANTE Programme, first phase (2016-2020), supported 8 Triangular Cooperation projects in various thematic areas, in several countries, with all types of actors (more than 50 organisations from 18 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, in addition to several European institutions), with diverse forms of collaboration between them and with different intervention strategies. These projects have contributed significantly to the Region's sustainable development and have generated interesting and useful sectoral and cross-cutting learning and experience exchanges.

The EVALÚA project, co-financed by the European Union through the ADELANTE Programme, aimed to institutionalize public policy evaluation in Latin America and the Caribbean. By promoting informed and effective decision-making, the project contributed to building more equitable and sustainable societies. Through collaborative efforts among various governmental institutions, EVALÚA enhanced the capacities of public administrations to assess and improve policy interventions, ensuring they meet the needs of their populations.
