Two international guests, UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed and writer Doug Adams will deliver the lecture.

CEO of the Desmond and Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation, Janet Jobson, says it’s a time to celebrate his legacy of courage and reflect on the loss. “I think it’s such a moment for us to remember who he was, his legacy, his extraordinary diverse legacy of courage, of compassion, and I think it’s also a moment just to take a pause and really sit with the loss of such an extraordinary global icon, I think particularly for the family. Anniversaries are such hard times when you grieving but we hope through the Peace Lecture, we can also celebrate him.

Makgoba extended birthday wishes to Tutu and also sent good wishes to Tutu’s wife, Leah, who is turning 89 next week. Makgoba says, “It feels funny and awkward that we are gathering without Emeritus for his peace lecture. There is quite an exhilarating feeling inside of me as if he will appear and we will hear his chuckle or his big laughter, but I know we will feel his warmth in the room, from what people will sing, feel and say about him, about ourselves and to ourselves and to the greater challenges we face in South Africa.
