Member Organisation

Nederland heeft één faculteit Diergeneeskunde, gevestigd in Utrecht. Zodoende is de stedelijke Member Organisation (MO) ook direct de landelijke MO van Nederland. Onze MO valt als commissie onder de studievereniging D.S.K. en communiceert namens de Nederlandse Diergeneeskunde studenten met andere MO’s wereldwijd. Hierdoor kunnen wij onder andere allerlei internationale mogelijkheden bieden voor onze leden, zoals uitwisselingen en stages regelen. Benieuwd naar wat wij nog meer doen?

MO IVSA the Netherlands 2025-2026

Meet the board members

President  – Nadia 

Hey everyone!I am Nadia Breedijk and I am currently in my second year of the Bachelor's program. Last year, I had the opportunity to serve as an Exchange Officer and, together with other IVSA members from all over the world, I attended the symposium in Morocco. I really enjoy getting to know new cultures from around the globe. Therefore, I think it would be fantastic to go abroad during my studies to connect with other (future) veterinarians from all over the world!

I look forward to taking on the role of President in the coming year. I can’t wait to organize a wonderful exchange and other great activities with this amazing group of people.

Secretary – Fleur

Hey everyone! My name is Fleur, and this year I'll be taking on the role of secretary within the IVSA committee. I'm currently in the second year of my Bachelor's degree in Veterinary Medicine.

Within IVSA, I am therefore very much looking forward to organizing exchanges and other activities, where we can connect students from different countries. I am really excited about the coming year!

Treasurer – Willem

Hello! My name is Willem, and I am in my second year of Veterinary Medicine. When I went to Estonia with IVSA last year, I immediately became very enthusiastic about joining IVSA. That’s why I’m very happy to be part of the 2025/2026 board—especially in the role of Treasurer.

I’m really looking forward to helping organize the exchange this year!

D.S.K. representative – Bas

Public Relations Coordinator – Manou

Hii everyone!! My name is Manou, and this year I’ll be taking on the role of Public Relations Coordinator. I’m currently in my second year of the Bachelor’s in Veterinary Medicine. I really love traveling and discovering new cultures. IVSA seems like the perfect place to combine this and get to know veterinary students from all over the world. As Public Relations Coordinator, I hope not only to get others excited about our activities, but also to showcase the experiences within IVSA.

I’m looking forward to organizing a great exchange this year with my fellow board members and creating new memories!

 Exchange Officer – Bo

Hello!I’m Bo and I’m currently in my third year of the Bachelor’s in Veterinary Medicine. This year, I’ll once again be taking on the role of Exchange Officer. I’m both English and Dutch, but I grew up in Munich where I attended an international school, so I really enjoy being in an international environment.

The idea of getting to know other veterinary students through IVSA really excites me. I’m really looking forward to organizing the exchange this year! 

Exchange Officer – Missane

Hi everyone! I’m Missane and I’m currently studying Veterinary Medicine. This year, I’m very excited to take on the role of Exchange Officer within IVSA NL. What inspires me most is discovering new countries, their beautiful landscapes, and unique animal species. I also really enjoy connecting with other cultures, their customs, and languages.

In my role within IVSA, I hope to contribute to stronger connections between veterinary students worldwide. I’m looking forward to organizing great activities with the group and gaining new experiences. Hopefully, see you soon! 🙂
