The designation ICA Fellow is the most prestigious award that the International Council on Archives can bestow. A Fellow is someone who has given distinguished service to the ICA or to the cause of archives at the international level during the course of their careers. Current ICA Fellow include Colleen McEwen (Australia), Sidek Jamil (Malaysia), Sarah Tyacke (United Kingdom), Ian Wilson (Canada), Mitsuoki Kikuchi (Japan) to name a few. Each has been recognised for their contributions either towards ICA or the international archival community.
