How will the case stories be processed?
Based on the above mentioned criteria, all SSC case stories submitted which meet the basic eligibility criteria will become official entries listed on the South-South Opportunity web site.
Once all official entries are collected:
- An evaluation team representing deep subject-matter expertise and regional diversity will review all official entries and qualify a pool representing the most complete and relevant entries based on scoring around clearly defined criteria.
- The pool of top quality cases will be translated into additional languages among Spanish, French and English for broader international dissemination
- A selection of top quality cases will be further refined and presented at the Colombia HLE
- During the Colombia HLE, conference participants will review and score the case stories and three SSC People’s Choice Award Winners will be named
