About Me

In November 2010 I got the opportunity to organise TEDxYouth@Amsterdam. A great chance to introduce TEDx to many youngsters in The Netherlands. Next to 'Ideas Worth Spreading' it's all about 'Ideas Worth Doing' at this TEDx event for people of 12-18 years old. At November 20, 2011 we organized the second edition. The theme: "Bring your Idea Alive". In 2012, TEDxYoutth will be organized for the third time in Amsterdam. In 2009, I founded Be The Change-Netherlands Foundation. We organize projects at highschools in which we encourage the students to realise their dream for the world. By taking the students and their dreams a 100% seriously, we reveale the great power all youngsters have to realise their own dream. We introduce a great variety of volunteers and professionals of many different companies into the classroom, people who are all very keen on helping and supporting the students every way they can.

Education. How can we support kids and youngsters so they can realise their dreams. Both their dreams concerning themselves as well as their dreams and wishes regarding the world.

An idea worth spreading

If you can dream it, you can do it.
