In Honour of Rosemary Thorp
We are pleased to announce that ODID, the Latin American Centre at OSGA, and St Antony’s College are organising a special event in honour of Rosemary Thorp, who died in November 2025.
Rosemary was a member of the University of Oxford between 1971 and 2008, where she became a unique contributor to Latin American Studies. Rosemary was director of the Latin American Centre three times as well as head of the Oxford Department of International Development. An active member in St Antony’s College, she was particularly interested in Peru and wrote extensively on economic history, economic transformation, public policy and inequalities.
The event will take place on Thursday 11 June from 5.00-6.30pm in the Nissan Lecture Theatre at St Antony’s College. Please join us to hear contributions from former students and colleagues and to celebrate Rosemary's work. The event will be chaired by the Warden of St Antony’s, Roger Goodman.
