Koen launched several Global Educational Projects involving 1000 educators across 100 countries, focussing on several UN Sustainable Development Goals and new learning approaches. These projects were widely covered by national media and supported by public figures like His Holiness Dalai Lama, Dr. Jane Goodall, Charlize Theron, Greenpeace, UNESCO, National Geographic, scientists, politicians, etc.
Thanks to having brief meetings with public figures like Al Gore, Jane Goodall, Charlize Theron, the King and Queen of Belgium, Tony Blair, Julia Gillard, President Bio, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander De Croo, Irina Bokova, Andreas Schleicher, president Santos, Lewis Hamilton, Koen was able to ship educational resources and find support for his global educational projects.
