Please Note: Participation charges are applicable only after a nominee has been selected. Awards are never sold.
Nominees are evaluated based on several professional and impact-driven factors, including:
Our evaluation panel may include distinguished personalities such as former High Commissioners, former SAARC Directors, Nobel Prize Winners, former Justices, senior legal professionals, doctors, educators and industry experts.
