Applications for designing the official mascots for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics will be open to the public, including children, the Games organizers panel announced Monday.

“We will assess them on the basis of designs, not on the fame or past achievements of the applicants,” organizers said after the panel discussing the selection process met for the third time, following its launch in mid-January.
