Rakesh Tiwari (Passing)

Rakesh TiwariRakesh Tiwari, who joined Auroville in 2002, passed away on July 17th. His sudden death was due to a heart related medical condition. He was 40 years old. Rakesh has worked at Needam Guest House, the Matrimandir, and at Aurofuture (the earlier name of L'avenir d’Auroville). In 2008, he left Auroville and moved to Nice in France, where he lived with his wife Violaine. From there they worked in various developing countries in South America and, more recently, in Sudan in an effort to improve the quality of life of people living in remote areas. They were contemplating moving back to Auroville and raise their as yet unborn child there.
