Dr. Hugo Tempelman, founder of the Ndlovu Care Group and namesake of the Hugo Tempelman Foundation, has been appointed Extraordinary Professor in the academic program of the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Pretoria. This position honors not only his scientific work and publication activities, but also his holistic approach to medical and social development aid in South Africa.
The appointment recognizes his decades-long commitment to practical and charitable healthcare – especially in the fight against HIV/AIDS, in building resilient healthcare systems and in linking medical care, education and social participation.
“This appointment is not only a personal award, but a recognition for all those who work with me to improve the living conditions of people in South Africa. It reminds us that real change only happens when we combine our expertise with empathy and responsibility.” – Dr. Hugo Tempelman
