As a general rule, while it is easy to find projects dealing specifically with the environment, gender equality or social inclusion, it is much more difficult to find good economic development projects that include these themes in their daytoday activities.
Če je bilo torej po eni strani lažje najti projekte, ki so se nanašali na okolje, enakost med moškimi in ženskami ali na socialno vključenost, je bilo po drugi strani veliko težje te iste teme vključiti v projekte za ekonomski razvoj.
It is therefore on these elements that we have concentrated our efforts. orts.
Naš trud smo torej usmerili v te štiri elemente.
The ‘Formen Hus’ was built using only ecological materials.
> Trajnostni razvoj in razumevanje namena Pri gradnji Hiše oblik (Formen Hus) so uporabljali izključno ekološke materiale.
We hope that subsequent evaluations will show, for example, that immigrants are more involved in the programme, that environmental demands are seen by beneficiaries as factors for economic growth, and that women are participating just as much as men.
Ugotavljamo, da se cilj gospodarske rasti vedno bolj približuje cilju varovanja okolja.
We are already seeing that a higher percentage of women are occupying management positions within companies set up with Structural Funds support than they do in other companies in the same sector.
Če je splošno sprejeto dejstvo, da naj ima ekonomska rast kar najmanjši vpliv na okolje, želimo iti še dlje in doseči, da bi upravičenci do pomoči v skrbi za okolje videli vir sredstev, ki lahko pomaga njihovi dejavnosti.
However, I will refrain for now from attributing that to the good practices introduced in connection with the horizontal priorities.
Projekti, ki imajo slab učinek na okolje, ne smejo prejeti nobene finančne pomoči, preprosto zato, ker škodijo dolgoročnemu razvoju.
> Improving knowledge and information It is difficult to take the right decisions concerning the environment, gender equality or social inclusion without proper knowledge. For this reason most of the Objective 2 programme managers for Eastern Sweden (as for the majority of the other Swedish Structural Fund programmes) have received specific training on the horizontal priorities. Every manager must be able to off er concrete solutions to project promoters. We have, moreover, compiled a guide for project promoters, set- _BAR_ p.
> Izboljšati znanje in informiranost Na področju okolja, enakosti med spoloma ali socialne vključenosti je težko sprejemati dobre odločitve, ne da bi razpolagali z ustreznim znanjem. Zato so bili upravitelji programa Cilja 2 za vzhodno Švedsko (kot to velja za večino drugih švedskih programov strukturnih skladov) seznanjeni s temi tematikami. Gre za to, da je vsak upravitelj sposoben predlagati konkretne rešitve nosilcem programov. Poleg tega smo izdelali vodnik, ki nosilcem projektov na preprost način pojasnjuje, kako naj horizontalne prednostne naloge vključijo v svoje vsakdanje delo. Stik: Fredrik.Eliasson@t.lst.se

‘The Visegrad Group countries are cooperating on evaluation’
„Države Višegrajske skupine sodelujejo na področju vrednotenja“
Eva Píšová, Director of the Czech Structural Funds Evaluation Unit, David Grolig and Michal Kokeš, Project leaders
Eva Píšová, direktorica češke enote za vrednotenje strukturnih skladov, David Grolig inMichal Kokeš, vodja projekta vrednotenja, zasnova načrta vrednotenja, tveganja in težave, s katerimi smo se srečevali, in možnosti sodelovanja na področju vrednotenja med državami višegrajske skupine.
The Czech Republic’s accession to the European Union was a historic event not only for the citizens of the new Member State, but also for the government departments that had to adopt a new administrative culture.
Vstop Češke v Evropsko unijo je bil zgodovinski dogodek, ne samo za državljane, ampak tudi za državne službe, ki so morale prevzeti novo kulturo upravljanja.
It is in this context that, on 1 December 2003, the Czech Structural Funds Evaluation Unit was set up.
V tem kontekstu je bila 1. decembra 2003 ustanovljena češka enota za vrednotenje strukturnih skladov.
For the moment, activities are focused mainly on building an evaluation capacity.
Enota je morala zelo hitro izdelati načrt vrednotenja, kar je bila zahtevna naloga.
The first evaluation projects and evaluation capacity-building projects have begun in all four countries.
Niso namreč imeli na voljo modela, ki bi ga pred njimi vzpostavila država primerljive velikosti in ki bi ustrezal podobnim socialno-ekonomskim ciljem.
In this respect, the participants stressed the possibility of co-financing certain evaluation development activities out of the ‘Technical assistance’ measure.
Tako so veščine vrednotenja pridobili v tesnem sodelovanju s strokovnjaki iz evropske petnajsterice, s predstavniki Generalnega direktorata za regionalno politiko in drugimi partnerji.
Very quickly, the Evaluation Unit was faced with the task of creating an evaluation plan.
Prvo srečanje je pokazalo, da se države Višegrajske skupine polno zavedajo pomembnosti vrednotenja.
This was particularly difficult as none of those involved had done anything like it before.
V tem trenutku je večina aktivnosti usmerjena v razvoj usposobljenosti.
The Czech Republic also lacked a model drawn up by a country of comparable size with similar socioeconomic objectives to use as a reference.
V vseh štirih državah so se začeli prvi projekti vrednotenja, pa tudi projekti, katerih cilj je razvijati usposobljenost za vrednotenje.
Close cooperation with experts from the EU-15, Regional Policy DG representatives and twinning partner experts therefore formed the starting point for the development of evaluation know-how.
Sodelujoči so obravnavali tudi možnost skupnega financiranja nekaterih aktivnosti, povezanih z vrednotenjem, in sicer na osnovi ukrepa „Tehnična pomoč“, ki je predviden v programih.
Broadly speaking, three project categories can be distinguished: those for the present programming period, those preparing for the 2007–13 programming period, and projects aimed at developing evaluation capacities.
Na splošno lahko razlikujemo tri kategorije projektov: projekte iz aktualnega programskega obdobja; projekte za programsko obdobje 2007–2013; in projekte, namenjene razvijanju usposobljenosti za vrednotenje.
The latter are at the most advanced stage.
Slednji so najbolj napredovali.
The other Visegrad Group countries (Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) were in much the same situation as the Czech Republic.
Druge države Višegrajske skupine (Madžarska, Poljska in Slovaška) so se znašle v bolj ali manj enakem položaju kot Češka.
Historically, these countries have much in common, sharing the same cultural roots. Today they have comparable levels of economic development.
Te države zgodovinsko sodijo v isti civilizacijski okvir in si delijo iste kulturne korenine, prav tako imajo primerljivo raven ekonomskega razvoja.
Unlike the other new Member States that preferred the single programming document, all these countries opted for Structural Funds management in the form of Community support frameworks that include several operational programmes.
V nasprotju z ostalimi novimi državami članicami, ki so raje izbrale enotni programski dokument, so te države želele izvajati upravljanje strukturnih skladov v obliki okvira podpore Skupnosti, ki obsega več operativnih programov.
The Evaluation Units all recognise that the diffi cul-ty of finding competent human resources — whether internally or externally — could compromise a successful evaluation process.
Vse enote za vrednotenje priznavajo, da bi pomanjkanje usposobljenih ljudi lahko škodilo poteku vrednotenja.
Another major risk could be delay in carrying out evaluations due to insufficient monitoring system data or an inadequate supply of services from contractors.
Drugo veliko tveganje je zamuda v izvedbi vrednotenj zaradi nepopolnih podatkov spremljanja ali slabih storitev, ki jih zagotavljajo pogodbeni sodelavci.

We have therefore decided to cooperate to develop quality evaluation capacities, effective evaluation planning and an interconnected monitoring system.
Zato smo se odločili, da s sodelovanjem razvijemo kakovostno vrednotenje, zagotovimo dobro načrtovanje vrednotenja in vzpostavimo medsebojno povezavo med sistemi spremljanja.
Other areas of cooperation will concern the exchange of information and experience on project implementation, methods and the creation of evaluation standards.
Druge aktivnosti sodelovanja bodo izmenjava informacij in izkušenj pri izvajanju projektov, metodah in opredeljevanju kriterijev vrednotenja.
The Evaluation Units also agreed to share experiences of good and bad evaluation projects with a view to improving practices.
Enote za vrednotenje so se sporazumele tudi glede posredovanja dobrih in slabih primerov vrednotenja.
The representatives of the Polish Evaluation Unit were tasked with preparing the new meeting.
Priprava prihodnjega srečanja je bila zaupana predstavnikom poljske enote za vrednotenje.
From September 2004, the Czech Evaluation Unit therefore began cooperating with the other Visegrad Group countries.
Septembra 2004 je torej češka enota za vrednotenje začela sodelovanje s podobnimi enotami v drugih državah Višegrajske skupine.
The first joint working meeting was held in Valtice, south Moravia (Czech Republic), on 2 and 3 December, marking the first anniversary of our Evaluation Unit.
Prvo delovno srečanje se je odvijalo v Velaticah na južnem Moravskem (Češka) 2. in 3. decembra 2004.

Optimising the impact of European aid
Izboljšati vpliv evropskih pomoči
It was the poorest country in the European Community when it joined in 1973.
Irska, ki je bila leta 1973, ob vstopu v Evropsko skupnost njena najrevnejša članica, je trideset let kasneje ena najbolj razvitih držav Unije.
But 30 years later, having made judicious use of European aid programmes in particular, it has become one of the most prosperous EU States.
Predvsem zato, ker je znala izkoristiti vse možnosti evropskih pomoči.

Efficiency and effectiveness ectiveness
Stroškovna učinkovitost
Foreign visitors arriving in Dublin might imagine they’d travelled back to the ‘Golden Sixties’.
Tujec, ki obišče Dublin, bo dobil občutek, da se je vrnil v zlata šestdeseta leta.
Two things are particularly striking: the youthfulness of the numerous pedestrians hurrying along its busy streets and the number of cranes that pierce the skyline of the Irish capital.
Dve stvari bosta še posebej pritegnili njegovo pozornost: mladost mimoidočih, ki hitijo po pločnikih, in število žerjavov, ki režejo nebo nad irsko prestolnico.
Visitors travelling by car would add a third observation: the slowness of the traffic, which is more a result of the city’s chronic traffic jams than the placid nature of Irish drivers.
Če potuje z avtomobilom, bo opazil še tretjo stvar: počasnost prometa, ki je bolj posledica kroničnih prometnih zamaškov v mestu kot pa mirnega značaja irskih voznikov.
‘Between 2000 and 2006, 75 ERDF projects, four Cohesion Fund projects, seven trans-European transport (TEN-T) projects and three Interreg IIIA projects were implemented across the country,’ specifies Lillian Butler, Community funds administrator within the National Roads Authority.
„V obdobju 2000–2006 se po vsej državi izvaja 75 projektov ESRR, 4 projekti kohezijskih skladov, 7 transevropskih transportnih projektov (TEN-T) in 3 projekti INTERREG IIIA,“ našteva posamezne projekte Lillian Butler, direktorica skladov Skupnosti v okviru Nacionalne uprave za ceste (National Roads Authority).
‘The major trigger was the Single Act,’ states Jim Higgins, Structural Funds and Cohesion Fund coordinator in Ireland.
„Veliki preobrat je pomenil Enotni evropski akt,“ zatrjuje Jim Higgins, koordinator strukturnih skladov in kohezijskega sklada na Irskem.
‘Even if they don’t explain our success entirely, far from it, regional aid has been decisive for us to get off the ground.’
„Tudi če regionalna pomoč ne more razložiti celote našega uspeha, pa je bila vendar odločilnega pomena za zagon naših aktivnosti.“
Ireland is definitely no longer the large peaceful garden at the furthermost reaches of Europe that visitors only arrive in for a break.
Če je Irska postala ena statistično najbogatejših držav Unije, je to med drugim tudi zato, ker je znala sredstva, ki so ji bila dodeljena s strani Skupnosti, uporabiti kot vzvode: 5,58 milijarde evrov med 1994 in 1999 ter 4,31 milijarde med 2000 in 2006.
The postcard of the herd of sheep blocking a country lane under the amused, spellbound eye of the tourist is no longer appropriate, except perhaps in a few corners of the countryside.
Irska zagotovo ni več velik, miren vrt na koncu Evrope, ki smo ga obiskovali le zato, da bi obnovili moči.
Everywhere, even in its most western and border regions that are in a far less favourable position than Dublin, Ireland now resembles one huge building site, a bustling country, bringing its roads, housing, services, etc. up to date, with the help of European funds.
Poštna razglednica s podobo tropa ovac, ki pod začudenim in dobrohotnim pogledom turista zasedejo vaško cesto, ni več aktualna, razen morda na nekaterih odročnih podeželskih področjih.
If Ireland has indeed become statistically one of the wealthiest countries in the EU, this is partly because it has been able to use the Community funds allocated to it — EUR 5.58 billion between 1994 and 1999, and EUR 4.31 billion between 2000 and 2006 — as levers.
Povsod, tudi v zahodnih in mejnih predelih, ki so mnogo manj razviti kot Dublin, je Irska danes podobna ogromnemu gradbišču, zaposleni deželi, ki želi izboljšati svoje ceste, prebivališča, storitve ... s pomočjo evropskih skladov.

But more disadvantaged populations also benefit: social housing that previously had poor transport services is now directly connected to the city centre.’
Dobre prakse regionalnega razvoja četka njegovega delovanja beležijo trgovine, ki se nahajajo ob tramvajski progi, 75 % več kupcev, vrednost stanovanj v bližini pa se je v treh mesecih povečala za 15 %.
Investment cost: EUR 775 million, 80 million of which was from the ERDF.
Korist imajo tudi prebivalci, ki so bili doslej prikrajšani: naselja socialnih stanovanj, ki so imela slabe prometne povezave, so sedaj neposredno povezana s središčem mesta.“ Cena naložbe: 775 milijonov evrov, od tega je 80 milijonov prispeval ESRR.
‘A little over 10 %, which may appear modest,’ explains Tom, ‘but Europe’s contribution was a symbol that inspired confidence and lent credibility to the project’s feasibility.’
„Malo več kot 10 %, to se zdi skromen prispevek,“ relativizira Tom, „toda prispevek Evrope je bil simbol, ki je spodbudil zaupanje in dal kredibilnost izvedljivosti projekta.“
Effectiveness was also central to the completion of one of Europe’s largest water treatment plants in 2003. The Ringsend Wastewater Treatment Works, the final stage in the ‘Dublin Bay project’, is a vast water treatment system in Dublin Bay, which was launched in 1994.
Kot primer učinkovitosti lahko navedemo tudi dokončanje ene največjih čistilnih naprav v Evropi leta 2003, Ringsend Wastewater Treatment Works, ki je končna faza projekta „Dublin Bay“, obsežnega načrta sanacije vod Dublinskega zaliva, ki se je začel leta 1994.
It involved an investment of EUR 300 million, 80 % financed by the Cohesion Fund, and required the laying of a 10.5 km underwater pipeline connecting the plant to the pumping station in Sutton, on the other side of the Bay.
Gre za naložbo v višini 300 milijonov evrov; 80 % vsote je prispeval Kohezijski sklad.
The complex treats water for an equivalent of 1.7 million inhabitants.
Investicija je zahtevala v prvi vrsti postavitev podmorskega cevovoda, dolgega 10,5 km, ki povezuje napravo s črpalno postajo v Suttonu na drugi strani zaliva.
Inside the Ringsend wastewater treatment works
V notranjosti čistilne naprave Ringsend.
Beyond its enormous size and evident modernity, the treatment plant offers all the characteristics of a ‘good’ project: it is technically innovative (it is the only installation of its kind that combines carbon hydrolysis, a process for digesting sludge and thermal dryers) which is particularly cost effective (10 cents per m³; EUR 8 per person per year), providing 60 % of its energy requirements.
Poleg velikanskih razsežnosti in očitne modernosti čistilna naprava kaže vse značilnosti „dobrega“ projekta: je tehnična inovacija (to je edina tovrstna naprava, ki združuje ogljikovo hidrolizo, postopke za prečiščevanje blata in termične sušilnice) in je tudi zelo stroškovno učinkovita (10 centov na m³; 8 evrov na osebo na leto), zagotavlja pa tudi 60 % lastnih energetskih potreb.
The project also includes a significant ‘transversal’ environmental dimension: a 2 hectare area of grass has been reserved to provide a habitat for the white-fronted geese that stage at Ringsend.
Projekt vključuje tudi poudarjeno transverzalno okoljsko razsežnost: projekt namreč obsega tudi travnik v velikosti 2 hektarov za rjave gosi, ki v Ringsendu naredijo postanek na svoji poti.
It is estimated that the plant has made it possible to reabsorb 75 % of the Bay’s sources of pollution and, as it is one of the rare capitals to have beaches, Dublin now hopes to obtain the European bathing water label for summer 2005.
Ocenjuje se, da je naprava omogočila absorpcijo 75 % virov onesnaženja zaliva. Ker je Dublin ena redkih prestolnic, ki ima plaže, namerava mesto za poletje 2005 pridobiti evropsko zastavo kakovostne kopalne vode.
Associating the population with projects
Vključiti prebivalstvo v projekte
‘Beyond the figures, we have also learned a great deal from the Structural Funds,’ continues Jim Higgins.
„Če pustimo številke ob strani, smo se s strukturnimi skladi tudi veliko naučili,“ nadaljuje Jim Higgins.
‘Managing them has enabled national practices and, very importantly, longterm planning and assessment to be improved.
„Njihovo upravljanje je vplivalo tudi na izboljšanje nacionalne prakse in, kar je zelo pomembno, dolgoročno načrtovanje in vrednotenje.
We would have got there on our own, but it would have taken longer.
Tudi sami bi prišli do tega, vendar bi trajalo dalj časa.
