Remembering Our Friend and Colleague, Vivien Gyuris

 

It is with deep sadness that we share the news that our dear friend and colleague Vivien Gyuris has passed away after a short illness. She was diagnosed with a brain tumour only weeks ago and didn't survive the surgery she had to undergo. 

Vivien’s work in global inclusive education was really significant and she was a founding member of the IFIP which meant so much to her. She will be remembered by many of us from dozens of countries for her warmth, dedication, and friendship. This is a truly sad day, and we share in our grief as a virtual community.

Our thoughts are with her husband, two young boys, family, and loved ones during this difficult time.

With heartfelt sympathy,

Daniel Sobel - Chair of the IFIP and Helena Wallberg – Co Chair of the IFIP Europe
