Monty Kraayeveld medal
Monty Kraayeveld
Lawyer and bon vivant 1945-2015
As a lawyer, he was involved in the establishment and shaping of the NVA in 1977.
The current association owes part of its stability to his efforts, which he did entirely selflessly. He wrote the articles of association and regulations and later managed the Board of Supervision for many years. His approach was not so much focused on punishment as on stimulating awareness and creating a new opportunity. His commitment to the NVA was significant. Ultimately, he did not have to say goodbye to the NVA; at the time of his sudden death in 2015, he was still chairman of the Board of Supervision.
Medal, lasting memento
The Monty Kraayeveld Medal was created after his death to honor and perpetually commemorate him. Monty Kraayeveld has meant a great deal to our association. This distinction can be awarded by the board to individuals (members and non-members) who have made outstanding contributions to acupuncture in general, in the Netherlands or abroad.
The Monty Kraayeveld Medal was awarded to:
2025: Mrs. Drs. I.A. von Rosenstiel
2023: Mrs. W.M. van Maarschalkerweerd
