Professor Armando Rocha Trindade (1937-2009)
We received the sad message of the death of Professor Armando Rocha Trindade, founder and honorary rector of Universidade Aberta. During many years (1987-1997), Professor Trindade played a very active role in EADTU as a Board Member and a Member of the Executive Committee. He was a charismatic promoter of distance higher education internationally and the main organiser of many seminars and conferences in Europe and worldwide. Above all, he was a faithful colleague and friend. For many of us, it was a pleasure to meet him, recently as a key note speaker on the EADTU Conference 2007 in Lisbon as well as on the 20th Anniversary Ceremony of Universidade Aberta in 2008 in Lisbon.
Our deepest sympathy and gratitude go to his family and Universidade Aberta.
