[More contracts for small businesses and VCSEs](https://tendernation.io/opportunities/for-small-businesses) ## About this tender \*\*\* This tender requirement was abandoned prior to a Contract award decision. \*\*\* This evaluation aims to look at the Joint Programming Initiative More Years Better Lives (JPI-MYBL) and collect qualitative information to understand the changes in national funding in demographic change since the formation of the JPI MYBL in 2010. The evaluation will use the results of the two JPI mapping exercises and information on the funded JPI research projects. The evaluation will collect information from interviewing the JPI national contacts and develop 5 case studies. This evidence will be used to assess the JPIs progress against the relevant monitoring and evaluation indicators. This evaluation will collect evidence that will be used in the final evaluation of the JPI MYBL in December 2017 which will evaluate JPI over the J-Age (30 month) and J-Age II (36 month) funding periods. This will build on evidence collected through the annual monitoring of the JPI MYBL and the two previously conducted external evaluation reports. The First Evaluation was carried out in January 2015 to externally evaluate the JPI at the end of the J-Age (30 month) funding period. The Second External Evaluation was carried out in February 2016 to evaluate the JPI MYBL Fast Track initiatives. Other evidence available for the evaluation include the JPI MYBL deliverables ### The JPI Data Mapping website D3.1 Monitoring report on funding programmes and research policy strategies in the EU-27 on the theme of demographic change. ### D3.4 Alignment workshop report ### D4.4 Validated and enriched data profiles D6.1 and D.2 The JPI MYBL monitoring and evaluation indicators.
