Commemoration of Professor Anne Goodman – Remembered One Year Later

Submitted by Issa Kirarira, Chairman, InterChange Uganda

Today, the 1st of August, marks one year from when Professor Anne Goodman passed on. In Uganda, her death was celebrated in Lutego, Mukono, where trees were planted in her memory on August 3rd, 2013.  On November 16th, 2013, two more trees were planted while celebrating an International Day of Tolerance in her memory. Among the trees that were planted, only one failed to grow, while the rest have grown steadily.

Below you will find a pictorial of our August 1st, 2014 event in commemoration of Professor Anne Goodman.
