Just over one month after his passing, the Institute of International Relations at UWI-St. Augustine hosted a symposium to honour the life and legacy of former Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mr. Kofi Annan. The event coincided with International Day of Peace on Friday. Retired Diplomat, Reginald Dumas, who served as Special Advisor on Haiti to Mr Annan, remembered him for the way he fearlessly discharged his duties. He also enjoyed a close friendship with Mr. Annan for some 60 years. Specific mention was also made regarding Mr Annan's peacebuilding efforts in Africa, including his home country of Ghana. Kofi Annan died on August 18th 2018. He served as Secretary-General of the United Nations from January 1997 to December 2006.
