Evaluation Experts of the project 

       
The concept  • One of the quality assurance methods envisaged by the project participants is the informal institution of Project Evaluation Experts, a group of researchers with a proven record of expertise in the common fields of interest.   
       
Activities  • The idea is to incorporate some of the rich expertise in our fields of research which is external to the project: our research consortium is of a high academic standard and wants to submit its research and results to the vigor of an external refereeing process.   
Expert list      
       
    The institution of the Project Evaluation Experts    
       
       
    The group of Evaluation Experts institutionalise in an informal and dynamic form. The list of Experts in the group is permanently evolving with new members joining as they are invited to comment on research results.  
       
    The members are active only when they choose to take an interest in a certain research result and offer to provide a report and /or discussion.   
       
       
     The tasks of the Experts    
       
       
    Experts can choose to take an active interest in any material presented on this page or material sent to them directly.   
       
    The main communication platform is the project internet site, newly emerging research material is presented on the page Preliminary Results.   
       
    If the Expert wishes to comment on the material, he is invited to contact the researcher directly or to prepare an anonymous report which he can send to the project co-ordinator.   
       
    Obviously, full confidentiality is granted if requested from either side.  
       
    Evaluation Experts are also invited to participate in our annual project workshops. Unfortunately, however, there is no budget to finance costs incurred to the Expert.   
       
       
    The recording of involvement of Experts    
       
       
    The active participation of Evaluation Experts is being registered in the list of reports and comments below.    
       
    An additional mention will appear in the regular project reports for the EU Commission.    
       
    We are looking forward to seeing the list of evaluation experts to increase and a continuation of our fruitful cooperation with past evaluators.
