Review Panel

The applications submitted to the OAD Annual Call for Proposals are evaluated by an independent review panel. The panel consists of experts who give their time voluntarily. They are selected, as far as possible, on the basis of their skills, prior knowledge, experience, geographic locations, gender and cultural diversity. In addition, the OAD invites external experts where necessary to serve on the review panel.
