The Technical Secretariat of the OIDP has opened the call to be part of the jury that will evaluate the nominations for the 19th OIDP Award.

There will be two groups of juries:

• Jury 1: for the selection of the final candidates. This jury will be composed of a minimum of 15 people (3 for each category) and a maximum of 20 people (4 for each category). It will participate in Phase 2, during February, to evaluate all the candidate practices and select the finalists for Phase 3.
• Jury 2: to deliberate on the winning practice and special mentions. This jury will be composed of between 5 and 7 people. It will participate in Phase 3, between March and April, to select the winning practice and special mentions, taking into account the open vote of the OIDP Community.

Exceptionally, some individuals will be allowed to participate in both juries.
