Background
Following the development of the Coventry UK City of Culture (UK CoC 2021) Performance Measurement and Evaluation Strategy, the monitoring and evaluation team produced a series of Progress Reports on the Coventry City of Culture Trust‘s programme of events that ran from May 2021 until May 2022.
- Between May 2020 and June 2021, six quarterly Progress Reports were published that reviewed the organisation of UK CoC 2021 and its initial events.
- In January 2022 an Interim Report was published that assessed the activities and results of UK CoC 2021 for the period December 2017 to November 2022.
- This was followed in September 2022 by a Supplementary Report that covered the remainder of the UK CoC 2021 year for the period December 2021 to May 2022.
A final evaluation report was published in November 2023 that covered the bidding process, the build-up period, the UK CoC 2021 year and immediate post-year legacy plans.
