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’.
Registrations close on 14 October 2022.

Dynamic Wealth Pty (Ltd), a financial services company, turned a classroom on the Main Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) into a research room. The room will be used by postgraduate students in the Department of Economics. During the handover ceremony Dynamic Wealth also allowed Esther von Maltitz, a masters student in the Department of Economics, to complete her SAIFM (South African Institute Financial Markets) Registered Persons examinations for free because her thesis during her honours degree was considered the best. At the handover of the research room were, from the left: Mr Flip Buys (Director and Portfolio Manager, Dynamic Wealth Bloemfontein) and Dr Jesse de Beer (Senior Lecturer in the Department of Economics).
