n Memoriam: Robin Copeland
CRDF Global is deeply saddened by the loss of our dear friend Robin Copeland. Robin was a tireless champion of nonproliferation and science engagement. For CRDF Global, as well as for the nonproliferation community around the world, she was an esteemed colleague, a talented professional and a close friend. She brought a passion and devotion to her job that has deeply touched anyone who has worked with her.
From the early days of the Gore/Chernomyrdin commission in the 1990s, to CRDF Global’s recent science engagement efforts in new geographic areas, Robin was a driving force for action and innovation for every office in which she worked. Her efforts to build and create meaningful engagement for the sake of safety, security and relationships, were tireless. Robin’s presence within the nonproliferation community created networks that have contributed to cooperation and achievements in many areas.
As we continue doing the work that she loved, her achievements and passion inspire us, and the relationships she created and fostered endure.
