Article 14 Indicators
United Kingdom
In accordance with Article 13, the indicators set out in paragraph 2 of this Article shall serve as a basis for monitoring and evaluating the extent to which each of the Programme's specific objectives set out in Article 4 has been achieved through the actions provided for in Article 5. They shall be measured against pre-defined baselines reflecting the situation before implementation. Where relevant, indicators shall be broken down by, inter alia, sex, age and disability.
The indicators referred to in paragraph 1 shall include, inter alia, the following:
the number and percentage of persons in a target group reached by the awareness-raising activities funded by the Programme;
the number of stakeholders participating in, inter alia, training activities, exchanges, study visits, workshops and seminars funded by the Programme;
the improvement in the level of knowledge of Union law and policies and, where applicable, of rights, values and principles underpinning the Union, in the groups participating in activities funded by the Programme compared to with the entire target group;
the number of cases, activities and outputs of cross-border cooperation;
participants' assessment of the activities in which they participated and of their (expected) sustainability;
the geographical coverage of the activities funded by the Programme;
the number of applications and grants related to each specific objective;
the level of funding requested by applicants and granted in relation to each specific objective.
In addition to the indicators set out in paragraph 2, the interim and ex-post evaluation reports of the Programme shall assess, inter alia:
the European added value of the Programme, including an evaluation of the Programme's activities in the light of similar initiatives which have been developed at national or European level without support from Union funding and their (expected) results; and the advantages and/or disadvantages of Union funding compared to national funding for the type of activity in question;
the level of funding in relation to the outcomes achieved (efficiency);
the possible administrative, organisational and/or structural obstacles to the smoother, more effective and efficient implementation of the Programme (scope for simplification).
