How should individuals taking part in more than one operation be counted?

In the case of multiple interventions that are considered to provide direct support it is necessary to ensure that participants are counted only once per operation. An individual benefiting from support provided by different interventions which are funded by the same operation should only be counted once (for each indicator). The start date (which is the reference for the common output indicators) is the date on which the person started the first intervention and the leaving date (which is the reference for the common result indicators) is the date on which the person left the last intervention. If the interventions are part of different operations, the same individual should be counted under each operation separately (see section 4.1.3 in Annex D of the EC Guidance document on Monitoring and Evaluation).
