The Busk Medal is an award given annually by the Royal Geographical Society, for "conservation research or for fieldwork abroad in geography or in a geographical aspect of an allied science".[1] It was first awarded in 1975, and is named in honour of Douglas Laird Busk (1906–1990), a former diplomat, mountaineer, and honorary vice-president of the Society.[1]
