Aligned with the BSMI Constitution, the establishment and development of  Committees aims to extend the network and the activities of the institute through a diverse range of social and scientific activities, projects, and programmes. 

BSMI COMMITTEES

BSMI Committees can be permanent to carry an ongoing task, or temporary, to develop a specific project. For example, the exhibition “BANFF 1824” to commemorate the bicentenary of the visit of General San Martín to Scotland. 

• BSMI CONFERENCES & SEMINARS – To coordinate, promote, and advertise online and live events to disseminate historical information in the English language.
•  

• BSMI EXHIBITIONS – To coordinate, promote, and advertise local, national and international exhibitions to disseminate historical information both in English and Spanish.
•  

• BSMI PUBLICATIONS – To coordinate and promote writing, compilation, curation, translation, edition, and publication of scientific historical research in the English language.
•  

• BSMI HISTORICAL RESEARCH – To coordinate research, analysis, and preservation of original documents, bibliography, and other relevant resources, to produce new scientific historiographical knowledge. 
•  

• BSMI TWINING AND FIELD TRIPS – To coordinate and promote cooperation and exchange with other similar institutions, while organising activities in the relevant places where General San Martín lived or spent time.

Often BSMI Committees will find themselves joining forces to develop common activities.

The creation of new BSMI Committees must be approved BSMI Board of Trustees once the following conditions are met:

– Have at least three (3) members including a Coordinator and a Sub-Coordinator.

– Present a list of activities to develop. An annual report must be submitted annually.
