Our Jury
INTERNATIONAL

Since Premios Verde's first edition in 2013, participation has grown exponentially. 12.690 participants from 1.144 cities from 41 countries have been a part of previous editions. Evaluating these projects in depth and with the utmost rigor would not have been possible was it not for a group of experts who dedicate their time and experience to rate candidates' work each year. Premios Verdes's Jury is made up of two international divisions: The technical commission (first selection of projects) and the Annual Jury (final selection).

Technical commission

The role of the Technical Commission, made up of 300 socio-environmental experts, is to be the first filter in the selection of candidates. It evaluates and scores all the projects registered each year, according to the following criteria: applicability, social sustainability, environmental sustainability, financial sustainability and innovation. Once the score of all participants has been determined, they are ranked, and the finalists are nominated.
