london 2012 olympic and paralympic games impacts and legacy evaluation framework

To ensure that the activities and investments related to the 2012 Games and their legacy can be robustly and comprehensively evaluated, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport commissioned a 2012 Games Impacts and Legacy Evaluation Framework.
The Evaluation Framework has four specific objectives:
- To help to identify the gaps in planned and proposed evaluation work across the range of activities and investments associated with the 2012 Games;
- To provide a common platform for monitoring of progress and outputs linked to the 2012 Games in a way which enables these data to feed into the broader evaluation process;
- To provide guidance to individual evaluators which will help to ensure consistency and allow different evaluations to be compared and where appropriate linked; and
- To enable evaluations to be effectively organized when completed so that they can inform each other and, where appropriate, be brought together in meta-analyses which can report on outcomes from multiple perspectives.
The Framework provides guidance on evaluation to all organisations involved in the preparation and delivery of the 2012 Games and their legacy.
