AWARDEE SELECTION PROCESS

The following assessment /selection process will be used to ensure fairness and credibility:


Nominations from all around the world will be drawn up by our dedicated research consultants;

Nominations will be examined to ensure that they meet the eligibility criteria;

The contents of nominations that meet the eligibility criteria will then be authenticated by our contracted team validators to confirm claims made in the nominations;

The validation consultants will then assess each nomination against the assessment criteria established by the organizers to determine whether or not they meet each of the selection criteria to any degree.

A short list of nominations that meet both the eligibility criteria and the selection criteria will then be forwarded to a specially constituted Awards Jury, comprising identified experts in women empowerment for consideration.

The Awards Jury will then meet virtually over several sessions to consider each shortlisted nominee. Where a member is unable to join meetings either for technical reasons or for reason of unavailability due to acceptable cause, that member will forward his or her inputs into the considerations to the meetings of the Jury;

Finally the Awards Jury will forward their assessments to the Awards Secretariat for computation of final scores for each nominee. The organizers will announce the winners – i.e. the highest scoring nominees. Where the highest scoring nominees decline to attend the impending Awards Conferment Event, they will be replaced by the first runners up.

Award winners will be conferred with their awards at a five star gala event to be held at the end of the event i.e. after the conclusion of the conference.
