In Memoriam
Spark Change Today
Support our end-of-year appeal and help change the story for girls for generations to come.
We are deeply saddened by the death of Ludigalda Maurilyo Mavika, CAMFED Tanzania’s Board Chair. Our thoughts are with her family, loved ones and colleagues at this difficult time.
Ludigalda was a passionate advocate for the most vulnerable in society, and dedicated to advancing the rights of children across Tanzania. In her role with CAMFED she supported every girl’s right to barrier-free learning and every young woman’s right to a life of independence and influence.
Ludigalda was a Partner at LNR Attorneys, a law firm in Dar Es Salaam. She was an Advocate of the High Court of Tanzania and of all subordinate Courts, with more than a decade of experience in corporate litigation, security documentation, land law, human resources and labor-related matters.
She participated in projects to advance the rights of children affected by HIV/AIDS, including under the Tanzania Commission for HIV/AIDS (TACAIDS).
Ludigalda will be missed by all whose lives she touched.
– Anna Sawaki, Acting Executive Director, CAMFED Tanzania (December 2025)
