Fellow Nomination

The scope of the PES Fellows Nomination Resource Committee is to promote and increase the number of nominations from PES and identify potential Fellow candidates and nominators, with a focus on fostering nominations from underrepresented communities (e.g., Region, professional sector, gender).
