Richard Middelkoop

Richard Middelkoop of Dutch Scouting, a world leader in radio Scouting, served as the volunteer World Coordinator of the World Scout Jamboree-On-The-Air (JOTA) and is now JOTA-JOTI World Coordinator.[1]

From 1988, Middelkoop was appointed World Organization of the Scout Movement Coordinator of JOTA[2][3] to succeed nearly 30 years of radio Scouting organized by Leonard F. Jarrett. Then in 2013, the World Scout Committee decided to expand the link between JOTA and Jamboree on the Internet, and he was appointed Global JOTA-JOTI Coordinator.[4]

In 1996, Middelkoop was awarded the 252nd Bronze Wolf, the only distinction of the WOSM, awarded by the World Scout Committee for exceptional services to world Scouting.[5]
