About Camille Van Neer

After studying political science and a 3 year teacher training course in the 1980's, India started pulling since 1990. After a few years visiting the country as a guest and later as an Aurovillian, my Indian wife and myself, along with our then 2,5 year old twins, settled down in 2006 in a small hamlet near the International Township of Auroville (http://auroville.org) and the coastal town of Puducherry, in South-India, I had to think about what to do next. It was there that my wife Jansi and I started AMAIDI Volunteering in India, inviting volunteers and travels to experience India 'the other way': giving something back.Amaidi still upholds the same motto, but more consciously now towards supporting local communities through supporting NGOs that work at the 'grassroots level'. By sending them volunteers and interns who in their actions align with the goals and aims of the NGO, we aspire to contribute to sustainable development worldwide, wherever needed. In other words: those we connect are invited to render their services, to transfer knowledge and support the capacity and sustainable development of the host organization and the communities they serve. Except for NGOs, AMAIDI partners with schools (from Pre-KG child care centers to university colleges), hospitals and social/care institutions for orphaned and (multiple handicapped) children and adults. Started off as a small organization, focused solely on (South-)India, Amaidi has grown over the years into a global social enterprise with a presence in more than 40 countries spread over 5 continents. In 2014 Amaidi reinvented itself in AMAIDI International gGmbH, with its headquarter no longer in India but in Germany. Around 75 people spread over all the countries we work in, are making Amaidi the way it currently is, lead by the visionary Tanja Siebert, it's new CEO, while I am busy trying to find my artistic voice and carve out a living as a painter and a teacher combined. Since my wife passed away in 2014, I embarked on a terrific journey that took me from raising my twins (nearing 20) on my own (with the Universe as a back up) to starting a career-on-the-side as a visual artist, specializing as a portrait painter, to a career in education - from teacher to coach - to a newly found love that trumps everything else in life. I am blessed with being able to walk tall and aware of all the changes that shaped me to be the person as the outer layer of my soul, typing these words today. And I am grateful that you have read me as far as you did .. God bless.From sept 2025 onward: only painting ..

The collection that is shown spans the time period from the 16th century till the present day. The collection consists of both 2D (paintings and drawings) and 3D (statues, installations) art, as well as film- and video images, depicting the socio-economic development of the city of Amsterdam in the context of an ever changing political and international climate. How did the ones in power decide on the fate of it's citizens? How did the poor react to what the rich determined life in the city of Amsterdam should be? How did the wars affect life and thought of those living in Amsterdam? And what does all this tell us, who live in or visit the city, about ourselves? All this and more is subject to what a museum educator/guide will bring in each guided tour. And we love it! Show less

I enjoy the small size of the school where all teachers and children know each other and get along very well. I have enjoyed being with kids who didn't know how much they were being supported by me. And never in their mastering the subject matter (maths) alone; I always started my day asking them: 'How are you today?' But what I really meant is the underlying question: 'Who are you today?' Or perhaps even better: 'Who do you want to give space to be you today?' I love teaching, but only in small groups, as it is then that I can really 'meet you'. I hope that in the near future our educational system will change from being curriculum-centered to being truly child-centered. Along with this shift, our educational system will change .. for the better. Show less

With this growing sense of global citizenship, many globalites seek alternative travel experiences that allow them to engage with global issues. They are eager to partner with local community organizations, particularly in the developing world, that focus on direct service and promoting sustainable community development. However, travelers seeking these volunteering or internship opportunities often find it difficult to find the right project with the right organization. They are in need of a centralized resource and intermediary organization that can ensure a high-quality field experience. Likewise, local organizations invested in community development projects seek ways to attract qualified volunteers and interns and to utilize these human resources in a sustainable way. AMAIDI bridges these needs, using a social networking hub to link high quality volunteers with local community organizations to guarantee a mutually beneficial partnership. AMAIDI is committed to thoughtful and lasting partnerships with local communities in the developing countries it works in, in Africa, Asia and the Americas.Additionally, AMAIDI wants to create a virtual space where social investors (formerly known as ‘donors’) and those in who’s life the money is being invested, meet. In such a way that a lasting relationship is brought about between people that feel connected and have the means to bring out the best in themselves. AMAIDI aims at enabling financial resources to flow freely from places of plenty to places of scarcity, making sure that everyone gains. Show less
