Methodology
Sustainability and responsibility.
Responsibility is one of the five criteria dimensions every Aurora recognition is assessed against, not a separate, optional add-on.
Repairability
Whether a product can be repaired, by whom, and with what documentation is treated as a design decision, not an afterthought. The entry form asks every applicant for repairability notes directly.
Materials and lifecycle
Entrants are asked to describe the sustainability considerations behind their product's materials and lifecycle as part of the standard entry form, alongside the product's other evidence.
