Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required three evidentiary criteria. The AAO concurred with the Director that the petitioner met the criteria for authorship and judging the work of others, but determined she did not establish that her contributions were of major significance to the field. Her proposals were implemented only at a local and regional level, and the evidence did not show a broader impact on the field of economics.
