The objective of this evaluation study is to provide DG MARE with an overall analysis of the SFPAs features, content, implementation, results and impacts. The results of the evaluation are expected to help the Commission to understand what has worked well, be considered of added value or a success story and, for what has not worked well, why and what could have been a suitable alternative option. More specifically, the terms of reference of the assignment required the evaluation to assess: • the fit for purpose and added value of the SFPAs based on the governance framework, the socio-economic and environmental benefits and impacts that they create in the EU and in third countries. In that context it evaluates the effectiveness of SFPAs, notably the extent to which the objectives of i) the Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 on the CFP, ii) the Communication on the external dimension of the CFP and the following 2012 Council conclusions, iii) the agreements and their implementing protocols, are met; - the extent to which the expected objectives and results fulfil the needs and expectations of EU in its different dimensions, including the EU fleet and the fisheries industry as well as local population, the partner countries, including on the distribution of the EU financial compensation between the access to the resource component and the sectoral support component; - the overall global, regional and type of agreement coherence of the current SFPAs network, in terms of policy orientations as well as in terms of concrete implementation and the overall coherence with other EU relevant policies , including the impact of SFPAs on EU Outermost Regions neighbouring SFPAs countries, and with the policies and intervention of other international organisations involved in fisheries; - the contribution of the SFPAs to development and reinforcement of the technical and scientific capacity of partner countries and their impact on the local fisheries sectors, on food security, trade relations with the EU; assess the SFPAs’ contribution towards combating IUU fishing in third countries; - the sectoral support component including the programming process, the main types of activities carried out, their results, impacts, and effectiveness within the sector and in related policy areas, - the perception in terms of appreciation of SFPAs and their actions; - the relevance of SFPAs and their sectoral support with respect to the EU needs and objectives.
