Projects

The Sen Foundation has supported the establishment of a new Foundation (OpenDoor Ukraine.NL) which is active in humanitarian, cultural and economic cooperation between Ukraine and the Netherlands. Its goal is to intensify contacts and increase understanding between the Netherlands and Ukraine.

Through its three thematic tables – economy, humanitarian affairs, and culture & civil society – OpenDoor Ukraine.NL brings together actors and stakeholders from both countries, and helps them to identify partners and opportunities for their activities.

Joris Voorhoeve of the Sen Foundation chairs the Board of Advice and Supervision, while Robert Serry is the Chairman of the Foundation’s Board.

In 2015, the Sen Foundation started a project to invent and produce a small water purification device to remove salt from saline underground water, to provide drinking water to refugees and poor people in isolated communities. The small-scale desalination device uses a unique technology.

The company Water Future B.V. makes a purification device for horticulture purposes (green houses). The technology is being used in Jerico for drinking water and irrigation.
