Statement on the death of HRH The Duke of Edinburgh

It is with profound sadness that we acknowledge the passing of HRH The Duke of Edinburgh.

His life of service has had an enormous impact on countless lives throughout the commonwealth and in deed around the world.

As Commonwealth Studies Conference Alumni, we know only too well the positive impact that The Duke of Edinburgh’s vision  has brought.  In our instance, his positive impact is multiplied many times over through the work of alumni as leaders in their vocations and communities.

We give thanks for his life and join with all across the commonwealth to express our condolences and sympathy to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth and all members of the Royal Family.
