Eligible to submit entries for the Golden World Awards are companies, associations, private institutions, NGOs and government bodies anywhere in the world. PR campaigns can be local, regional, national or international. The entry form may be downloaded here.
Entries submitted to the Golden World Awards competition will be judged by an international panel of senior practitioners. Each entry will be assessed on the basis of its competence in five areas – a statement of the issue; research; planning; execution and evaluation. The judging itself takes place in two parts – a remote stage and a physical round. The remote stage will be via email in May and June, with the final judging being held on Friday 6 July, in Paris.
The awards themselves will be presented to winners during an international gala on 6 November 2007 in London.
More information about the competition may be found on the IPRA website at www.IPRA.org/gwa2007/gwa2007.htm.
