Classification of Initiatives and Recognition Mechanism

All entities and individuals who have graciously presented their initiatives will be classified into the following categories: large initiatives, medium initiatives, and small initiatives. The classification will be based on the scope, impact, and achievement of the initiative’s intended goals. Participants will be recognized according to the level of their contributions in each category, taking into consideration factors such as innovation, sustainability, and the number of beneficiaries. This classification aims to foster a spirit of positive competition and encourage the submission of impactful and sustainable initiatives that serve the community.
