This final report presents the findings of the ex-post evaluation of the European Capitals of Culture (ECoC) Action for 2018 undertaken by Ecorys and the Centre for Strategy and Evaluation Services (CSES).
The cities of Leeuwarden-Friesland and Valletta were the two ECoC cities for 2018. The evaluation has focussed on how these cities developed their application and cultural programme, how they delivered their ECoC year, the benefits and impacts that were gained and any legacy issues they experienced. The evaluation also highlights what the cities actually delivered over 2018 and describe the themes, priorities and key projects that made up their ECoC cultural programme. Finally, the evaluation also puts forward conclusions, recommendations and lessons for future ECoC title-holders and applicants as well as EU institutions to learn from.
This report starts with an introduction explaining the aims and methodology of the evaluation and a brief policy history and context of the ECoC. It is then followed by a chapter each for Leeuwarden-Friesland and Valletta which sets out the main findings and observations of the evaluation for each of the 2018 host cities. It concludes with overall findings and recommendations.
