This online get-together is exclusively open to the Online Jury and Grand Juries of SWS and Marŝarto. We will debrief the outgoing jurors, and onboard the new jurors.
The shortlists for the SWS and Marŝarto Awards are compiled based on the hard work of the Online Jury. Online Jurors are asked to review 30 or more submissions, against a collectively defined set of criteria, unique for each of our awards.
The members of the Grand Juries are then required to review the shortlist, judge them against the same criteria, and, through their collated assessments, decide on a Winner and Honourable Mention.
This online meet-up is for outgoing and incoming jurors, to meet up, and say ‘hi’; To tell us what went well, and what could be done even better; To learn how the jury process works and, perhaps even, discuss adjustments to the criteria we use to score submissions against.
