The EPIET Alumni Network (EAN) assigns a prize at ESCAIDE for the two presentations (one oral and one poster) that are most effective in transmitting a public health message. This initiative was started in 2010 by the former EAN Presidents in occasion of the 15 years of EPIET and at the time it was called 'EAN Presidents’ Prize' (see below).
An EAN Prize Committee judges the oral and poster presentations. The Committee comprises EAN members that are not part of the graduating or current EPIET cohorts and the moderators of each session. Only presentations which are the contributions from the parallel sessions are assessed (i.e. plenary sessions are excluded).
