Annual awards
Every year, at its Annual Awards Dinner held during the IISL Colloquium, the Institute gives several awards and certificates to people who have shown outstanding achievement in the field of space law.
On this occasion, the Institute gives out annual awards in five categories: the Lifetime Achievement Award, the Distinguished Service Award, the Award of Appreciation, the Certificate of Gratitude, and the Space Law Award for Young Achievers.
A sixth category of annual awards is the Prof. Dr I.H.Ph. Diederiks-Verschoor Award, granted by the IISL Board of Directors.
