The EU has developed and formalised guidance tools and documents for evaluating its external assistance in which priority is given to results and impacts. This page presents the methodological guidelines designed to facilitate the move towards an evaluation practice focused on programmes and strategies in EC development cooperation.

EvalVoices
EvalVoices is a space for evaluators, by evaluators—a platform driven by voices from the field to advance how we talk about and practise evaluation. Anchored in the EU’s commitment to an “evaluate first” culture, as highlighted in the EU Evaluation Policy and the Better Regulation Guidelines, the EvalVoices initiative serves as an inclusive platform to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and insights amongst evaluation professionals and thought leaders. It explores what works, and what doesn’t under which circumstances – while sharing cutting-edge tools, methods and approaches that shape relevant, context sensitive, inclusive, and successful evaluation practices.
