In memory of Anita Ashok Datar

As we reflect on the tragedies that recently befell Paris and Bamako, and the long shadow they cast over on our own home city, Brussels, our thoughts go out to the friends and family of Anita Ashok Datar, a cherished colleague who lost her life while trying to better those of so many others. This week at the annual meeting of the Ouagadougou Partnership, participants from across Francophone West Africa honored Anita’s memory with a moment of silence. We join with them in paying tribute to Anita and in recognizing the dedication and courage of her co-workers at Palladium, a longstanding company delivering positive impact around the world and a founding member of the Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition.
