The overall objective of this evaluation will be to improve the design and the impact of the thematic budget lines related to Health, Aids and Population through the strengthening the European Commission's (EC) ability to draw on lessons learnt of past and ongoing interventions for future planning and programming exercises.
The specific objectives of the evaluation are:
- To explore to which extent the objectives and means set out in these two regulations (1567/2003 & 1568/2003) have been met; and
- To draw up lessons learned which may feed the current debate on future EC external aid policy.
