Drs. Kees-Jan and candy de Maa | Directors

Over the years, the vision to inspire a community that would become a force in shaping society, was ignited in the lives of Kees-Jan and Candy de Maa. After years of preparation they started the University for Societal Architecture in March of  2015.  At the moment, the community of Societal Architects is composed of leaders from more than 19 countries, who are already impacting their sphere of influence in significant ways. In such a short period of time we are seeing people taking action and implementing their God-given blueprints.
