Emerging Issues Prize

The Emerging Issues Prize is awarded to the best call paper to come out of a new, but not necessarily repeating, call paper program. The Emerging Issues Prize is not necessarily an annual prize and can be sponsored by a different committee each time.

The amount of the Emerging Issues Prize is determined annually.
