The capacity development seminar wants to attract evaluation experts from the government sector , civil society , parliament , audit offices , donor agencies , private sector and academia . All participants should have a university degree , professional expertise in M & E ( mid-level to high level professionals ) and be a national of a country with whom Belgium has signed a Common Strategic Framework Agreement . Eight to ten country teams , each team composed of a maximum of three M & E experts ideally from different sectors ( government , civil society , academia , …) will be selected and granted a scholarship financed by the Special Office of the Belgian Development Cooperation . Evaluation societies should thus encourage several of their members to apply !
