Interim evaluation of the MEDIA 2007 programme for the European audiovisual sector

The main objective is to provide an external and independent interim evaluation of the MEDIA 2007 programme. The study will have to assess if the objectives of the programme continue to be adapted to the needs of the European audiovisual sector, and its European added-value. It will also consider the efficiency of the management and operation of the implementation. Above all, the evluation willl verify if the first results are supporting the intervention logic of the programme and will try to estimate the likelihood of generating the broader impacts expected by the programme, according to the intervention logic. The evaluation has a clear prospective approach and should support future adjustments.
