Judging
The Awards are decided by an esteemed panel of industry Judges who read and score each submission individually and vote under the supervision of an independent auditor.
Judges are bound by confidentiality agreements and recuse themselves when a potential conflict arises. At no time are Judges who have identified a conflict allowed to read or deliberate on a submission.
The Judging Panel is overseen by a Presiding Judge and an external auditor is present at the Judging Day when the judges convene.
We recognise and understand the sensitive nature of the information provided in your submission. With this in mind, there are systems in place to ensure confidentiality at every stage of the judging process.
