An institution dedicated to the memory of merit.

The Academy acts as an institution of honorific, cultural, diplomatic and social recognition, promoting the appreciation of noteworthy journeys and the strengthening of ties between countries, institutions and personalities.

Through its Orders, Medals and Confraternities, it brings together leaders, diplomats, entrepreneurs, scientists and figures from the cultural sphere around a common purpose: to honor human excellence and build bridges between nations.

The Academy's four honorific orders

Each Order gathers around a clear purpose: diplomatic integration, empowerment, entrepreneurship and the building of bridges between civilizations.

The official record of every decoration of the Academy.

Public consultation of honorees, with order number, name, nationality, category, date and place. Each record is linked to an official record summary and an authenticity QR Code, making the honor verifiable anywhere in the world.

More than two decades devoted to merit.

Living communities of oath and belonging.

More than orders, the confraternities bring honorees together in quarterly gatherings, ceremonies and joint initiatives. Each confrere receives a numbered card, verifiable by QR Code in the Almanac.
