Competencies of EU Fund Evaluators: Insights from the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This study examines the professional identity, development, and challenges of EU fund evaluators in the Czech Republic, addressing a research gap in understanding their roles within managing authorities and the private sector. Data were collected through an online survey, the World Café participative method, and six semi-structured interviews. Descriptive statistics and comparative analysis explored trends and differences between the two groups. Findings reveal varied professional identities, with managing authority evaluators balancing evaluation with administrative tasks, while private-sector evaluators face pressures from procurement systems and limited recognition. Both groups report challenges such as administrative burdens, time constraints, and insufficient professional development. While conferences and self-study are common, tailored, hands-on training remains underutilized. This study highlights the need for targeted support to enhance evaluators’ identity, skills, and recognition, contributing to more effective EU fund evaluations. It aims to strengthen evaluation practices, promoting transparency and accountability in public resource management.
