followed by offline Qualifier, Semi-Final, and Final Rounds, collectively evaluating participants through an integrated Med-Arb framework.<\/p>\n<h3>Qualification Criteria<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Advancement through the Competition shall be determined through a structured evaluation process, with sixteen Negotiating Teams and sixteen Mediator-Arbitrators qualifying
