WSA is a nomination based award system.
To apply you need to be nominated by either a WSA National Expert as best national digital solution for the UN SDGs in one of the 8 categories.
Each country can only nominate one project/solution per category. Nominations to the international WSA are possible through national contests and national expert panel selection.
Through this high level selectory system, please be aware that every country has their own deadlines for the call. The generally communicated WSA deadline is the timeframe of the global call, and communicates the last possible date of a nomination by the national expert panel.
