“Striving and fighting for a better world”

Currently working on

Aidsfonds

Aidsfonds has fought for the rights of people with HIV/AIDS for decades, working to prevent infections and advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Operating internationally, it focuses on Africa, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and the Netherlands. As chairperson of the Advisory Panel, I’m honored to advise Aidsfonds alongside experts and activists worldwide.

PrEPnu

PrEPnu fights for the availability of PrEP in the Netherlands, focusing on communities at higher risk of HIV infection. PrEP is scientifically proven to be one of the most effective preventive methods and a highly cost-effective intervention. The foundation both informs people at community events and lobbies for policy improvements. As chairman, I am responsible for the strategy of this organization, which is entirely run by volunteers.

PRIDE66

PRIDE66 is the rainbow network of the Dutch political party D66. It represents the LGBTQIA+ community and campaigns for the advancement of our rights. By addressing issues such as safety, mental and sexual health, and the lack of LGBTQIA+ education, PRIDE66 motivates politicians to enact policy changes and take action. As the elected president of the national network, I lead the political strategy and represent the network to local, national, and European politicians.

Last books I read

Thought experiments (Gedankenexperimenten) are “facts” in the sense that they have real life correlate in the form of electrochemical activity in the brain. But it is quite obvious that they do not.
The Emerald Buddha is a figurine of a sitting Budha, that is the is the palladium of the Kingdom of Thailand.
