The ongoing evaluation of the ESF 2007-2013 in North Rhine-Westphalia focused on priority axes A in 2010, priority axes B in 2011 and priority axes C in 2012. Related to these priority axes the ongoing evaluation performed the assessment of the strategy, evaluated the results of priority axes and funded measures with regard to the strategic and specific objectives of the programme and assessed the programme’s contribution to horizontal priorities as well as to the objectives of the Lisbon Strategy and of the European Employment Strategy (EES).
