HONOURS COMMITTEE

During its meeting on 19 December 2005, ASPHER Executive Board decided to establish an ASPHER Honours Committee comprising the Association's Past Presidents and Andrija Stampar Medalists. 

The aim of the Honours Committee is to serve as a forum for discussion, advice and proposals on present and potential activities undertaken by ASPHER, to create the conditions for improving the documentation of the history of the Association, and to "keep in touch" more formally with the Association's Past-Presidents and Andrija Stampar Medalists.
