CIES relies on a team of volunteer reviewers from across the Society to evaluate paper, panel, roundtable and poster session proposals. Proposals submitted to specific SIGs are reviewed by volunteers appointed by that SIG; all other proposals are reviewed by volunteers assigned to the General Pool. The following five criteria and 4-point rating scale will be used for CIES 2023:
