The CAP for the 2023-2027 programming period places emphasis on the added value of LEADER as one of the pivotal topics that Member States should assess. This stems from the CAP Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2021/2115) & Implementing Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2022/1475) highlighting the LEADER added value and its significance in the evaluations of the CAP Strategic Plans.
Building on the guidelines on the evaluation of LEADER/CLLD published in 2017 by the European Evaluation Helpdesk for the CAP, this workshop seeks to delve deeper into understanding the benefits accrued through the proper application of the LEADER method. While the guidelines provided a comprehensive concept of the LEADER added value, there were challenges for Member States in operationalising its components for facilitating its evaluation. In order to address this gap, a Thematic Working Group (TWG) has been formed by the Evaluation Helpdesk to provide methodological support to EU Member States for the evaluation and demonstration of the added value of LEADER.
Objectives of the Workshop:
- Increase the knowledge of stakeholders involved in LEADER evaluations.
- Exchange practical experiences from past evaluations of LEADER and its added value, both at LAG (local) and programme (regional or national) levels.
- Provide an opportunity for networking and identification of needs for further support for Managing Authorities, Local Action Groups, CAP networks and evaluators.
Target Audience:
The workshop is targeted to Managing Authorities, Paying Agencies, LAGs, CAP networks, evaluators, and other CAP evaluation stakeholders. Additionally, EU-level evaluation experts and LEADER experts will attend to provide specialised insights on evaluation elements and methodologies pertinent to this topic. This workshop will be held in English.
