The ICOM-CC Medal

In 1993, the ICOM-CC Directory Board initiated the striking of a special medal to be awarded to members who have played a vital role both within the organisation itself and in the field of conservation at large. The first three medals were awarded retroactively. Afterwards, the awards were conferred at plenary sessions of the Triennial Conference so that recipients would receive recognition of their work in the presence of their peers. In addition, the award ceremony introduces young professionals to the work of colleagues without whom the field would not have attained its current level of development.
