An evaluation of the Cardigan Bay Fisheries Local Action Group (FLAG).  The FLAG has been supported through the “Animation, Communication and Evaluation Project”, which has an investment value of £108,359 and is funded through the Welsh EFF programme 2007-13.

This evaluation will:

• Provide an objective and evidenced assessment of the FLAG’s outputs, impact and the process of delivery;

• Use the learning from the evaluation to improve delivery;

• Build the capacity of staff, FLAG members in relation to review and evaluation; and

• Review the effectiveness of the Lead Body.

Given the client’s requirements and the wider context we are proposing a methodology that uses a mix of approaches, so that we can provide a rounded view of the FLAG’s achievements and “tell the story”:

• Provide a robust picture of outputs and impacts;

• Provide the opportunity for Stakeholders to share their views

• Use approaches, such as Social Return on Investment and Partnership self-evaluation to gain the fullest possible picture of the outcomes of the FLAG Project

• Run workshops with a cross section of stakeholders to ensure that internal and external views of the FLAG are understood and given due weight.
