Finnish Evaluation Society (FES)
The aim of FES is to advance and maintain the knowledge on evaluation research and evaluation practices in Finland.
Description
To meet its goals of evaluation knowledge, the society organizes
annual seminars in October. In addition smaller discussion forums
are organized on various topics. Once a year in co-operation with
the Finnish Association of Administrative Studies a peer reviewed
evaluation supplement is published by FES in the journal
Administrative Studies.
Most of the activities are in Finnish but so far two of the annual
seminars and one of the evaluation supplements have been in
English.
