Edwin Mugambila CEO of Tanzania Relief Initiatives
I had the privilege of meeting Edwin Mugambila, the CEO of Tanzania Relief Initiatives, representing India and Hyphen SCS as part of the Yukon Study Group during CSC2023 – The Duke of Edinburgh’s Commonwealth Study Conference – Canada 2023.
Some people talk, and then there are those who not only talk but also take action and make things happen, regardless of the challenges.
Edwin falls into the latter category.
Every time he spoke about any relevant issue, every word was filled with substance.
You could literally feel the passion and energy surging through his veins.
Edwin Mugambila profound knowledge and well-read nature were evident in the compelling arguments and examples he shared during our numerous brainstorming sessions over the weeks.
Edwin’s remarkable ability to seamlessly transition between seriousness and fun while excelling at both is truly incredible.
Furthermore, his deep affection for and extensive knowledge of both Indian law and culture left a lasting impression on me.
I once wrote a quote,
“One day I will be a revolution,” and when I revisit it today, the first person who comes to mind is not me but Edwin.
Keep inspiring, brother! You are a true revolutionary!
