The project was being implemented by ECORYS Netherlands and Afortio Ltd. during the period October 2006 – July 2007. The international team of experts visited 29 on-going projects and communicated with 27 completed IBPP projects. Sizable information was collected and analysed. Most of the IBPP projects have returned the evaluation questionnaires that were sent out. Representatives of the project teams, public authorities, NGOs, target groups and beneficiaries were interviewed.
The main observation is that IBPP addresses real existing problems in Ukraine, the projects are mostly successful, and IBPP has produced positive results in terms of strengthening civil society and social service delivery in Ukraine.
The IBPP web-portal
www.ibpp.org.ua was developed by
Afortio Ltd. The website is based on the created database which has three main components: project information, participants’ database and document database (electronic library). The website allows all interested parties access to materials (books, training materials, manuals, booklets, newsletters, etc.) produced by IBPP, supports communication and partnership, and provides a facility for dissemination and promotion. At the same time the IBPP website functions as an effective management tool for the activities of the EC Delegation in the social sector.
