Download or read book Can the Commission and Member States Show that the EU Budget Allocated to the Rural Development Policy is Well Spent? written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For the 2007-13 programming period, the EU has allocated almost 100 billion euro to achieve its rural development objectives. In this report, the Court finds that there is a lack of assurance that the money has been well spent: the Commission and member states have not sufficiently accounted for their performance in achieving value for money with the EU's budget. Despite support from the Commission, member states' monitoring and evaluation has not been reliable, consistent and relevant enough to show what has been achieved in relation to the policy objectives. The available information has not been used to make the rural de¬%x;velopment measures more effective and efficient, with the focus being on spending the budget rather than efficiently achieving results. Ultimately, the current framework has failed to provide the information needed in time to inform decisions on the most effective and efficient measures for the 2014-20 programming period."--Page [4] of cover.

Download or read book Counterfactual Impact Evaluation of EU Rural Development Programmes written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of this study is to show how various micro-economic direct/indirect effects (e.g. deadweight loss, leverage effects, etc.) and selected general equilibrium effects (e.g. substitution and displacement effects) of EU RD programmes can be calculated using recently developed advanced econometric semi-parametric evaluation methodologies. Answers to EU Common Evaluation Questions (CEQ) regarding the effects of an RD programme on programme beneficiaries at farm level (including deadweight loss and leverage effects) are provided by comparing changes in specific result indicators collected at a farm level (e.g. profits, employment, gross-value added, labour productivity, etc.) in the group of programme beneficiaries with an appropriately selected control group (counterfactual analysis - based on matching). Direct programme effects are calculated on the basis of Average Treatment on Treated (ATT) indicators (for programme beneficiaries), Average Treatment Effects on Non-Treated (ATNT) indicators (for programme non-beneficiaries) and Average Treatment Effects (for both groups) using a combination of propensity score matching (PSM) and difference in differences (DID) methods. A modified propensity score and difference in differences methodology (modified PSM-DID) is applied to derive various general equilibrium effects (e.g. substitution effects). The empirical analysis is focused on the evaluation of effects of the SAPARD programme in Slovakia (years 2002-2005) and the Agrarinvestitionsforderungsprogramm (AFP) in Schleswig Holstein, Germany (2000-2006) using micro-economic data (balanced panels) of bookkeeping farms (including programme participants and non-participants) in respective countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic objective of this study is to analyze the impact of EU RD programmes on rural regions. Aggregated effects of a given RD programme at regional levels are estimated using the Rural Development Index (RDI) - a proxy describing the overall quality of life in individual rural areas. The weights of economic, social and environmental domains entering the RDI index (composite indicator) are derived empirically from the econometrically estimated intra- and inter-regional migration function after selecting the "best" model from various alternative model specifications (e.g. panel estimate logistic regression nested error structure model, spatial effect models, etc). The impacts of individual RD measures are analysed by means of a counterfactual analysis by applying combination of the Propensity Score Matching (PSM) (e.g. Kernel matching) and difference-in- differences (DID) methods (i.e. by comparing supported regions and matched control group, prior to the programme and after it).^Evaluation of programme effects (by programme measures) at regional level is carried out on the basis of the estimated policy parameters: Average Treatment Effects (ATE), Average Treatment on Treated (ATT) and Average Treatment on Untreated (ATU) effects by using the RDI Index and unemployment ratios as impact indicators. Given information on regional intensity 10 programme exposure (financial input flows by regions) the overall impact of obtained support via a given RD programme is estimated by means of a dose-response function and derivative dose-response function within the framework of a generalized propensity score matching (GPS). Furthermore, sensitivity" analysis (Rosenbaum bounds) is carried out in order to assess a possible influence of unobservables on obtained results (under a binary PSM methodology). Above methodologies are empirically applied to evaluation of the impact of the SAPARD programme in Poland and Slovakia in years 2002-2005 at NUTS-4 level.^Results show a full applicability of proposed approach to the measurement of the impact of rural development and structural programmes.

Book excerpt: This report provides a synthesis and an analysis of the ex-post evaluations of the Rural Development Programmes (RDP) for the period 2007-2013 submitted by the Managing Authorities of the Member States. The analysis focusses on the effectiveness, efficiency, coherence, relevance and EU added value of the 2007-2013 RDPs. The analysis and evaluation conclusions have been drawn based on the following elements of the report: 1. The synthesis of the replies to the common set of evaluation questions in the ex-post reports of the Member States. Fourteen questions were programme-related. The remaining questions concerned the individual measures of Axis I, Axis II, Axis III and Axis IV (LEADER). 2. The globalised (EU level) answers to the full set of common evaluation questions, based on the information synthesised in the previous step 3. The answers to the evaluative questions, related to effectiveness, causal analysis, efficiency, coherence, relevance and EU added value answered based on the analysis conducted in previous steps.

Download or read book Implementation of the Leader Approach for Rural Development written by European Court of Auditors and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leader is an approach for implementing the EU's rural development policy through local action groups (LAGs). This involves specific costs and risks but promises an added value from following a bottom-up and partnership approach. In this report the Court finds that lags implemented the Leader approach in ways that limited the potential for added value and gave grants to projects without due regard to efficiency. Procedures were not always transparent and did not sufficiently demonstrate that the lags took decisions on an objective basis, free from conflicts of interest. The Commission has not yet demonstrated the effectiveness or efficiency of the expenditure, the added value achieved through following the leader approach, the extent to which the known risks have materialised or the real costs of implementation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) receives a significant share of EU-level expenditure which has attracted the attention of policy makers keen to understand the impacts of this expenditure on Europe's rural areas. However, the existing indicator-based approach for monitoring and evaluation fails to fully assess the Rural Development Programmes' operation and impacts. This book shows that a thorough review of the policy process can add valuable information for effective and efficient future support for European rural development.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 2007-13, EU budget (measure 122 of the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development) supported investments aimed to improve the economic value of forests owned by private persons or municipalities. The Court's audit revealed that only a few of the audited projects significantly improved the economic value of forests, either by improving the value of the land or the value of the stands. Weaknesses in the design of the measure and its monitoring mechanisms affect its successful implementation. Many of the audited projects concerned activities which would have been more appropriately financed using other specific EAFRD measures."-- Page [4] of cover.

This book was released on 2004-06-15 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An effective state is essential to achieving socio-economic and sustainable development. With the advent of globalization, there are growing pressures on governments and organizations around the world to be more responsive to the demands of internal and external stakeholders for good governance, accountability and transparency, greater development effectiveness, and delivery of tangible results. Governments, parliaments, citizens, the private sector, NGOs, civil society, international organizations and donors are among the stakeholders interested in better performance. As demands for greater accountability and real results have increased, there is an attendant need for enhanced results-based monitoring and evaluation of policies, programs, and projects. This Handbook provides a comprehensive ten-step model that will help guide development practitioners through the process of designing and building a results-based monitoring and evaluation system. These steps begin with a OC Readiness AssessmentOCO and take the practitioner through the design, management, and importantly, the sustainability of such systems. The Handbook describes each step in detail, the tasks needed to complete each one, and the tools available to help along the way."

Direction générale de l'agriculture et du développement rural and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides, at national and regional levels, statistical and economic information covering the three objectives of Rural Development policy 2007-2013. An overview of the Rural Development budget over the 2007-2013 period is included, together with information on the financial monitoring of RD programmes in the EU-27 and in Candidate Countries. Rural development policy seeks to establish a coherent and sustainable framework for the future of Europe's rural areas. Information needs for rural development have evolved alongside policy developments. There is a greater need for presenting the situation in rural areas and its recent evolution. For this reason, the European Commission's Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural Development prepares a specific report aiming to provide, on a regular basis, a comprehensive set of information on rural areas and the implementation of the EU's rural development policy.

Download or read book Scale-Sensitive Governance of the Environment written by Frans Padt and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensitivity to scales is one of the key challenges in environmental governance. Climate change, food production, energy supply, and natural resource management are examples of environmental challenges that stretch across scales and require action at multiple levels. Governance systems are typically ill-equipped for this task due to organisational and jurisdictional specialisation and short-term planning horizons. Further to this, scientific knowledge is fragmented along disciplinary lines and research traditions in academia and research institutions. State-of-the-art, Scale-Sensitive Governance of the Environment addresses these challenges by establishing the foundation for a new, trans-disciplinary research field. It brings together and reframes a variety of disciplinary approaches, using the idea of scales to create a conceptual and methodological basis for scale-sensitive governance of the environment from both a natural and social science perspective. This volume presents new visions, methods and innovative applications of thinking and decision making across scales in space and time to develop a holistic view on the subject. It is unique in providing: F analysis on how spatial, temporal, and governance scales are constructed, politically and scientifically defined, institutionalized in governance practices, and strategically used in policy discourses F details on how current environmental governance practices can be enriched by the use of theory on scale, with specific research themes to show the benefits of recognizing scales in empirical research F insightful case studies drawn from countries in the Americas, Eastern and Southern Africa, Europe, and South and Southeastern Asia, covering a wide range of environmental topics including biodiversity, climate change, commodities (tea and palm oil), cultural landscapes, energy, forestry, natural resource management, pesticides, urban development, and water management. With its comprehensive coverage of scale and scaling issues and convergence of widely different scientific approaches, this book is essential for environmental scientists, policy makers and planners, also conservation biologists and ecologists who are involved in modeling climate change impacts and sustainability. This reference will also benefit students of environmental studies, and all those who seek a response to the urgent environmental governance challenges for the decades ahead.
