ICOM-US International Service Citation

The International Service Citation recognizes individuals or organizations that have made a commitment to advance the cause of museum-based international relations, have played an important role in the collaboration between US museums and those abroad, and have had a significant impact on the museum field.

The International Coalition of Sites of Conscience is the 2010 recipient of the ICOM-US International Service Citation. The International Coalition of Sites of Conscience is a worldwide network of “Sites of Conscience” – historic sites specifically dedicated to remembering past struggles for justice and addressing their contemporary legacies. 

Acting in the service of human rights and civic engagement worldwide, the Coalition embodies the best values of AAM’s Museums and Communities initiative and the commitment and vision to worldwide collaboration that the citation is intended to honor.
