H.E. Prof. Dr. Federico Mayor Zaragoza

President of ECPD International Council

 

 

Dear ECPD UPEACE Members and Friends, 

With profound grief and a heavy heart, we deeply regret to announce that our long-standing distinguished President of the ECPD International Council, close friend and prominent ECPD Professor, H.E. Federico Mayor Zaragoza, former long-time Director General of UNESCO, Founder and Chairman of The Foundation for a Culture of Peace, Minister of Education and Science of Spain, and the Rector of the University of Granada, passed away on December 19th, 2024.

Both at the level of our institution and for each of us, personally, it has been an honor and a privilege to enjoy the opportunity to work with such a brilliant personality as Professor Federico Mayor and to follow his wise guidance in a multitude of situations. His impressively rich career, which included the highest and most responsible positions throughout his life in helping build and fortify the new Spain as well as the European Union, giving a particular contribution to the reforms of the UN System, had also related to the Balkans over the most difficult years. He will be remembered, among all other of his formidable accomplishments, for his valuable contribution also to this part of Europe, as a great champion always striving for peace, tolerance, international cooperation, cherishing and preserving cultural heritage, solving disputes through diplomatic negotiations, and securing a brighter future for all peoples.  Professor Federico Mayor Zaragoza actively supported The European Centre for Peace and Development of the University for Peace est. by the UN for many years and until his very last day.

 Prof. Federico Mayor Zaragoza has been the most prominent President of the ECPD International Council since its establishment, as well as, the heart of many key institutions that have been crucial in shaping the contemporary world. On behalf of UNESCO, he has given the final leverage to the establishment of this international institution in Belgrade

Our thoughts and hearts go to our esteemed and beloved ECPD International Council President, whose great deeds will remain with us forever. He shall be truly and immeasurably missed in all our future activities, and shall never be forgotten. 

Repose in Peace, True, dear Friend, and may Eternal Glory be Yours!
