It is with great sadness that the NRF has learnt about the passing of Professor Brian O’Connell, the former Rector and Vice-Chancellor of the University of the Western Cape. Prof O’Connell received the NRF’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2017. He was a rare and passionate individual, a remarkable South African and a great human being, who committed himself to the upliftment of the country’s disadvantaged citizens and the restoration of their dignity: https://lnkd.in/dWxsDyjk
