Delegate profile

David Campbell

David Campbell

Formal-register Campbell. Likely the same Campbell energy with added passport-office dignity: practical, dry, and liable to ask the correct logistical question precisely when the group has committed to the wrong answer.

Trips attended

  • 2026 / Yerevan, Armenia

    The next official matter before the General Secretariat: mountains, monasteries, brandy, border ambiguity, and enough Caucasus energy to restore institutional morale.

  • 2025 / Oslo, Norway and Longyearbyen, Svalbard

    The Arctic edition: seed vault mythology, Pyramiden, Barentsburg, polar-bear-adjacent caution, and the northernmost version of almost everything.

  • 2024 / Sarajevo and Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina

    A Bosnia conference with real historical weight, mountain roads, Ottoman bridges, concrete textures, and enough weather risk to satisfy the movement.

  • 2023 / Cluj-Napoca, Romania and Debrecen, Hungary

    A Cluj and Debrecen route that proved ICOM can still generate institutional complexity from apparently manageable European cities.

  • 2022 / Skopje, Macedonia

    The Skopje edition restored overseas ICOM energy with monumental public art, Balkan logistics, and enough civic oddness for a respectable field file.

  • 2018 / Baku and Ganja, Azerbaijan

    The Azerbaijan edition: Baku, Ganja, Flame Towers, Caspian oddness, plov, oil-bath mythology, and a destination name that did not require much help.

  • 2016 / Astana and Almaty, Kazakhstan

    Kazakhstan brought the delegation into Central Asia: Astana futurism, Almaty mountains, long distances, and the possibility that the route itself was the point.

  • 2012 / Belgrade, Serbia

    Belgrade supplied river confluence, nightlife, Yugoslav history, concrete, and the sort of heavy-but-funny atmosphere ICOM likes.

  • 2011 / Tbilisi, Georgia

    The Georgia edition brought Tbilisi, Caucasus hospitality, khinkali, wine, hills, and the Stalin birthplace day-trip association into the canon.

  • 2009 / Kiev and Pripyat / Chernobyl, Ukraine

    A defining ICOM chapter: Kiev, Pripyat, Chernobyl, radiation-adjacent mythology, and the moment the archive becomes impossible to explain as a normal travel habit.

  • 2007 / Bucharest, Romania

    Bucharest added grand boulevards, huge buildings, post-communist texture, and early confidence that this annual habit had a specific flavour.
