  I’m not able to answer that. It will be up to the committee, however, you can view the committee guidelines here:

  The committee will not receive further instructions, and it will be up to them how to evaluate the mandate.

  Hi Charles,

  I must admit I have not followed the international EA movement closely at all the years I’ve been involved, so I’am a bit confused by your statement. If you have the time, I would like to know what you mean by the statement that it is rare fore EA’s to have competency (out side of EA-stuff).

  Am I to understand that people don’t take jobs/​work outside of EA-related organizations?

  Thanks for the tip! I will get in touch with CIB as well!

  Thank you also for the suggested changes!

  How many are competing for the prize?
  Of course, it will depend on the number of applications we receive this year. But if the last call for application is a benchmark, we received around 50 applications.
