The CIUS Publication Award was established in 2013 and is granted annually in the categories "Best Book" and "Best Article."
The award is intended to identify and recognize publications issued in a given year that are notable for scholarly excellence and impact among professional colleagues and the general public. The authors whose works were selected received cash awards and souvenirs from CIUS-glass statuettes of Inuit inukshuks as symbols of the unity of continents, people and ideas.
A two-stage procedure guarantees transparency in the selection of nominees for the awards. In the first stage, a selection committee in Ukraine (including leading scholars in a number of subject areas, headed by Natalia Yakovenko) compiles expert assessments of publications issued in the preceding year. Following discussion and voting, the committee prepares a list of articles and monographs that is submitted to CIUS for consideration. In the second stage, a CIUS jury votes on publications in two categories-best article and best monograph-to select winners from the list of nominees.
