Handing over – a word from Rikko Voorberg

Dear friends, transition time is a special time. I have served AWoN with enormous pleasure. I cherish deeply the trust that has been given to me, the support, advice, feedback, and friendship. The friendship will stay — Aude and Tudor jointly take over my position as Co-Directors of the Network, and I couldn’t be more pleased!

Four years ago, when I started as Network Director, we also had Co-Directors: Maria, our current Chair of the Board and I, served both as Directors with a clear division of tasks. So we continue in a path that has been tested and worked very well before.

We live in difficult times when it comes to our work as practitioners. Now, two magnificent people will give what they have to serve the Network and nurture it for the years to come. There’s no better outcome of this process. I will dedicate my time in the next months to hand over, to help the transition to be seamless.

Thank you for who you are, for keeping up this essential work of ours. I am grateful to be part of the family.
