19 January 2024
We have received the sad news of the passsing of Maria Jongsma.
Maria Jongsma studied andragology at the University of Groningen (1974-1979) and committed herself to society in various advisory and leadership roles. Among other things, she was president at the Voedselbank Groningen. In May 2023 she received the Ubbo Emmius medal for social merit.
We wish her family, friends and colleagues lots of strength.
