On Thursday 22nd September 2022, the UNFPA, Trinidad and Tobago Liaison Office was thrown into mourning, following news of the passing of our treasured and brave partner and friend, Hazel Brown, gender, and consumer activist and founding member of the Network of NGOs of Trinidad and Tobago for the Advancement of Women, who died at age 80.

Ms. Brown was widely respected both locally and internationally and was a strong advocate for the rights of ordinary people, particularly women.  In 2011, she was among the first to receive the Trinidad and Tobago Medal for the Development of Women and in 2017, she was conferred with an Honorary Doctor of Laws (LLD).  

We extend our sincerest condolences to her friends, family and the Network of NGOs of Trinidad and Tobago for the Advancement of Women.
