History
The first idea to unite the historians at Slovene Historian Meeting was given in 1938 by Franjo Baš (1899–1967), at that time the ban's archivist, and was realised the next year at first Slovene Historian Meeting in Ljubljana at the 100 anniversary of the Museum Society. The original idea to organise the meeting yearly was interrupted by the Second World War, afterwards the reorganisation followed to organise a serious centre, therefore the Historical Society for Slovenia was established in 1946. Since 1951 the meeting is organised every two years, each year in a different town.
Mission
The Union brings together the historical societies all over Slovenia, promoting the views of its member societies and giving a national focus to matters of general concern, especially with regard to major issues of the cultural heritage; encourages the study of Slovene history, the preservation and publication of historical material and public access to historical material; promotes communication and mutual assistance within the historical society movement; assists the work of member societies; and provides a forum for the exchange of ideas on historical matters throughout Slovenia.
Klio Award
The Klio Award (named after Greek muse of history), established at the Slovene Historian Meeting in 1998, is given every two years for research work in historiography, mostly to authors of monographs published in previous two years. The winner is awarded with a diploma and three average net monthly incomes in Slovenia. The main purpose of the award is an incentive to improve in terms of thematic and methodological research work, and to exercise historiographical research work, its main achievements among Slovenian historians and historiography. The award unfortunately remains unnoticed to the general public.
The previous award winners are Peter Vodopivec (2008), Alenka Cedilnik (2006), Matjaž Bizjak (2004), Igor Grdina (2002), and Peter Štih (2000).
