As an organizing team, you may decide to organize a National best images selection process, with national winners. Most organizing teams do that. But this is not mandatory. Unlike Wiki Loves Monument, the national selections and the international selection are independent.
So if you want to organize a best national images selection, a ceremony, gifts for national winners, certificate... please do. It is great. But it is also fine to not have a national winner selection. Some countries do not have enough volunteers to run a selection process and ceremony. This is absolutely fine. Please do what is best for you.
If you want to organize a national selection process, please check these Jury process guidelines.
