The Jelita panel

Independent judgement. Confidential identities.

Panel names, profiles, photographs and individual scores remain internal. The public can see the standard and process—not the people applying it.

How independence is protected

The people remain private. The standard does not.

Confidentiality protects panel members from lobbying and pressure. The secretariat checks completeness and eligibility, while the independent panel assesses eligible nominations. The same standard applies whether her contribution comes from a farm, shop, home, school, clinic, community or company.
