DARA Fellowship Committees
From submission to decision
Evaluation process in DARA
The process involves discrete steps as depicted in the figure below:
1. The secretariat screens applications and assign eligible applications to reviewers.
2. Reviewers assess and score the assigned applications independently.
3. The top performing applications are selected in agreement with the committee chair and vice-chair for discussion and ranking at a committee consensus meeting.
4. Chairs and vice-chairs of the four committees jointly rank the applications recommended for funding at across-committee consensus meeting.
5. The Board of Directors appoints grantees based on the recommendations from the cross-committee assembly.
