Since 2018 the ISIMM Prize has been given in the form of the ISIMM Medal. The first ISIMM Medal has been awarded to Professor Sir John Ball.

The medal has been designed by Margherita Stramaccia and Matteo Margutti, two graduates from University of Perugia, who are collaborating since 2016 with "Laboratorio Internazionale di Ricerca sul Paesaggio" under the direction of Prof. Fabio Bianconi and Prof. Marco Filippucci.

The medal has been manufactured by SIMAP Medaglie (Rome).
