Alberdina Hendrika Hengelaar

Board Member (Netherlands – Europe)

Hi! I am Dieke, (she/her/hers) active member of the YWCA for more than 10 years now. I have been leading multiple committees of my national YWCA in the Netherlands and board member for 3 years. In my daily life, I am a policy and judicial advisor working for the Ministry of Health on the Mental Health Team and responsible for human rights legislation in mental health care and international affairs. I am specialised in human rights law. I have gained so many leadership skills and empowerment from the YWCA, I would love to give back to the movement as an enthusiastic board member.
