On 20 October 2022, the University of the Free State (UFS) Faculty of Theology and Religion will present the distinguished Tutu-Jonker lecture in honour of the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Prof Willie Jonker. These two theologians are well-known in South Africa for their emphasis on reconciliation, and the series of lectures is a tribute to their reconciliatory efforts.

This will be the first in-person Tutu-Jonker lecture since COVID-19 and the passing of Archbishop Tutu. The keynote speaker, Dr Lazarus Mokobake, Chaplain in the South African Defence Force, will deliver the lecture, themed: ‘Faltering resilience – a nation in need of conciliation’.

Tanya Britz

Tanya Britz is relentlessly escalating the sports ladder. Tanya is part of the National Senior Hockey Team, SA U/21 women’s team and also vice-captain of the Free State U/21 team that won the inter provincial league.

Tanya made it into the Senior National Hockey Team after what she called a “miracle” day on the astro fields. During this day, she was nominated as:
• best player of the tournament,
• top goal scorer, and
• best goal of the tournament.
The team made it to the finals of the provincial league.

“Kovsies is family to me. It has been a great journey with the Kovsie Sport family, and I should say that being a Kovsie is a great feeling,” Tanya says.

“To my fellow Kovsies – never cease to dream, until your dreams become a reality.”
