Abstract

Monitoring and evaluation should form the foundation of revitalisation programme management. The literature on the subject points to a general reluctance of municipalities to assess the effects of implemented revitalisation programmes, as well as the difficulties that municipalities encounter during this process. In Germany, in 2013, the federal and state governments, along with municipal associations, adopted an inter-programme concept for the evaluation of revitalisation programmes. This concept represents the first systematic structure for monitoring and evaluation of revitalisation programmes. The aim of the article is to present the assumptions of this concept and provide an overview of the experiences gained so far in its implementation. The study was based on desk research, an in-depth individual interview, the case study method, and an email interview.
