The edie Awards entries are judged by an esteemed panel of sustainability experts, hand-picked for their specialist knowledge and experience within their own specific field. Judging takes place in two stages:
STAGE 1
Judges individually review all entries and evaluate them based on the given criteria
STAGE 2
Entries to pass Stage 1 progress to a dedicated category group evaluation, where judges in their respective fields engage in discussion and debates. This collaborative process leads to the final selection of the shortlist and winners.
Each criterion is scored out of 10 and averaged to produce the final score. Download the entry guide to find out more about how scoring decisions are made.
