- Conflicts of interest should be identified and avoided so that peer review process is not compromised. Conflicts of interest occur where an individual involved in some way with the assessment of a proposal has a personal or organisational relationship with the applicants that call into question their ability to undertake their role in an objective and unbiased way.
- The reviewing process should be double-blinded, which means that both the reviewer and author identities are concealed from the reviewers, and vice versa, throughout the review process.
