Judging takes place at three levels:

Preliminary

The QTGA team reviews all entries received for each category.  They recommend and nominate finalists for each category, based on the criterion recommended by the judges for each category.

In the event that more information is required, to evaluate a nomination, nominees will be requested to furnish further information.

Independent

In this level finalist entries are presented to a panel of independent judges. The judges then nominate winners under each category individually.

Audit Panel

All finalists' entries and scores are reviewed by the entire panel of judges and a winner and two runners up for each category chosen with consideration of independent judges’ suggestions. 

Nominations will be scored based on the following criteria:

•     Effectiveness

•     Impact

How has the project/initiative/work motivated others to contribute to a greener Qatar?

•     Originality and Leadership

•     Continuity & Sustainability
