On the Icelandic Sign Language Day and the anniversary of the Deaf Society, on 11 February, the three-member board of the Society recognised three members for excellence in their work and everyday tasks.

Kristinn Arnar Diego was awarded an honorary doctoral degree for her scientific paper which was prepared from his Master's thesis in Disability Studies and which discusses the situation of Deaf people in Iceland. He graduated in 2020, and the article was published in 2022 in the Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education. The board considered her an important contribution to research on the status of Deaf people in Iceland.
