Yale-Edinburgh 2019
This year, the Yale Edinburgh Group lamented the loss of one of its co-founders, Lamin Sanneh. Several sessions were built into the program to commemorate his insights and contributions to the field, and there was a special memorial held as well. In his absence, Dana Robert opened the meeting with a lecture on where the Yale-Edinburgh group fits in history, and she also concluded the meeting with reflections on themes she heard over the three days. During breaks, she spent time with such friends as Linda Ochola and Wanjiru Gitau.
