The Evaluation will draw on existing evidence and will collect new evidence through desk research, and interviews with those stakeholders involved with the JPI MYBL including European Commission, policy makers, country representatives, participants in JPI activities and JPI members. This evaluation will collect evidence that will be used in the final evaluation of the JPI MYBL in December 2017which 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 D3.1 Action plan for networking meetings with third countries D5.1 Stakeholders' and target audience list D5.2 Communication Strategy & Dissemination Plan D5.6 Updated communication plan (v2) D6.1 and D.2 The JPI MYBL monitoring and evaluation indicators. And a paper on Social Questioning Applied to Social Marketing - Francois Lagarde.

EU research activities reflect the research priorities of the JPI MYBL (A19).

This external evaluation will provide an independent assessment of the JPI MYBL's reach and impact with stakeholders within the EU and internationally and provide case studies and recommendations to the JPI on increasing its reach and impact.
