In this respect the partners presented the results of the research carried out by the working groups established in each country to assess the professional organizations, the evaluation framework based on Gender + Methodology developed by IOCE and the proposals to increase the professionalism in evaluation.
Following to the presentations fruitful debates and suggestions were provided by the audience that were considered for concluding the results of the research.
