When a medal is given to someone after they die, it is conferred or given after death, posthumously.
Posthumously means that it was done after the fact or death, such as a book or song by an author/singer being released after the authors/singers death (called a Posthumous Work), or a baby being born after/during the Parent's death (called a Posthumous Birth).
Awards, honors, degrees, titles, or recognition that are given to an individual after their death are considered conferred posthumously. This is a way to acknowledge their contributions, legacy, or achievements even though they are no longer alive to accept them.
