Stage 2: The judging panel will comprise of two judges from the Australian Health Promotion Association. 

In both Stage 1 and Stage 2, designs will be judged on the following criteria:

2. response to the prompts from the theme; 
3. relevance to students at the Universities; and 
4. engaging content and slogan. 

Selection of Winners
In both Stage 1 and Stage 2, winners will be selected based off the Judging Criteria.
