(Nederlands) Erevoorzitter Ruud Lubbers overleden

Worldconnectors will miss our founder and honorary chairman Ruud
Lubbers. His vision and drive brought us together in 2006 – and he has
continued to support Worldconnectors and many others with his unique
contribution until this very year.

An inclusive leader at heart, always sharing his stage and with the
ability to rally any company behind the cause – from heads of state at
the United Nations, to thousands of young people at the Lowlands
festival.

Deeply thankful for his personal guidance for many years, there are no
better words to celebrate his life than those from the Earth Charter
he so often highlighted:  “Let ours be a time remembered for the
awakening of a new reverence for life, the firm resolve to achieve
sustainability, the quickening of the struggle for justice and peace,
and the joyful celebration of life.”
