Announcing
the Departure of Dr Luis Navarro
Dear Colleagues and Friends,
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing away of our dear
colleague and friend Luis Navarro on July 12, 2007, in Chile. He was laid to
rest of Saturday July 14th 2007.
Luis worked in various functions related to ENRM programming at IDRC based in
the ESARO office since 1989. He spent the last months in Chile surrounded by
family while fighting cancer.
We will remember him always as a collegial, sensitive, thoughtful and committed
person. He was an important and valued mentor and advisor to colleagues, new and
not so new, and deeply respected by partners in the field. Through his work he
embraced the fundamental values and ideas that are at the heart of the Centre’s
work.
Luis will be sorely missed by those who worked with him. Our thoughts are with
the family and his near and dear ones in support of their loss of a loved one.
A condolence book will be available at our offices in Nairobi and HQ to allow
friends and colleagues to express their condolences to the family
In sorrow,
On behalf of the Regional Director, Constance Freeman,
Director, ENRM Program, Jean Lebel and all the Staff at the Eastern and Southern
African Regional Office (ESARO),
Catherine Kilelu
Program Officer
