Nominations for the biennial BABAO Service Award are open until August 11th 2024
BABAO has established two awards for members, the Service Award and the Mentorship Award. Requests for nominations are in alternate years, with the award being presented at the BABAO Annual Conference. This year, it’s time to present an award for Service to the Association!
The BABAO Trustees will consider applications, but if any Trustee member is nominated that Trustee will not review the nominations for that round.
Nominations are open to all members and awards may be given to any member, whether a student or a more senior member. This award is presented biennially (first award 2018).
What makes a member worthy of the Service Award?
- Recipients of the BABAO Service Award will have made an exceptional contribution to the association and/or to the fields of Biological Anthropology and Osteoarchaeology
- Their contribution may be direct – e.g. being a Trustee – and/or indirect – e.g. promoting in the media what BABAO represents.
How do I nominate someone?
The nomination should be no longer than 2000 words, and provide a narrative account of the candidate’s service contributions and why they deserve the award.
Nominations for this award should be submitted to our Secretary, Hannah Liedl at secretary@babao.org.uk before midnight on August 11th 2024.
