At the end of 2023, the Latvian Council of Science (LCS) conducted a survey of invited foreign experts to find out their opinion on the scientific evaluation process of projects organised by the Latvian Council of Science and the possibilities to improve it. 331 replies were received. The review analyses aspects of the expertise such as the administrative process, the information system, the evaluation process and the use of experts. Overall, the experts have a positive view of their experience with the LCS, noting the work with the NZDIS electronic project submission and evaluation platform as the weakest, and the high professionalism of the LCS staff as the strongest.
