Upon receiving the said awards, participants are expected to continue developing research-based solutions to the specific challenges facing transition and developing countries. The project duration lasts about six to twelve months but can be divided into segments. ## Eligibility Criteria The selection committee makes its decision solely on the basis of the nominees’ academic qualifications and the relevance of their research to the development of their own countries.
