Foceval: 2017-2018 As we enter in the third phase of the project in 2017, we identify a list of different "challenges" to overcome in order to consolidate all the past actions undertaken in Costa Rica, and ensure the sustainability of the goals achieved. 3
Identified challenges Most trained professionals (with an evaluation Master Program) do not work in areas / departments related to the evaluation topic. Raising awareness and creating opportunities for young-emergent evaluator s people to be involved in practice processes, in order to generate the respective needed skills to work in the evaluation area. It is still necessary that more evaluators or people interested in evaluation join the efforts to get organize and improve the representation of evaluators in the country and abroad. 4
Different actions perform by Foceval Traingings to public sector staff involved in evaluations, and open oportunities for Young and Emergent Evaluators. 5

Specialized assessment courses have been sponsored. Hiring of sponsors (evaluation experts) who have accompanied evaluation processes. The inclusion of YEE in the evaluation team: Bridge to Development has been requested in TDR. Evaluation management course to lower management public personnel Involved as facilitators of training workshops. Learning by doing processes to encourage practice in evaluation.
