VOX - DECEMBER 2020 5 Dear Vox... Did anything else happen this year? As Vox editors we invited you all - Radboud University students and staff members - to share with us your 2020 highs (or lows). We really enjoyed hearing about your new pets, first jobs, new babies and perfect macarons. The letters we've received have been included in this Vox edition.

R e l ig ie s in N e d e r l a n d HOOFDSTUK 5 HET CHRISTENDOM KATHOLICISME Erik Borgman en Marit Monteiro In Amerikaanse en Engelse films en televisieseries worden belijdende rooms-katho- lieken nogal eens verbeeld als mensen die ook de weerbarstiger kanten van wat geldt als de officiële leer van hun kerk, zeer serieus nemen. Vrouwen die niet willen scheiden van hun overspelige of gewelddadige echtgenoot, echtparen die een kind met een zware erfelijke ziekte welbewust geboren laten worden en levenslang ver­ zorgen als zware, maar heilige plicht. Bij wie nadenkt over de actuele situatie van het Nederlandse katholicisme, zullen dergelijke beelden niet snel opkomen. Ook onder Nederlandse katholieken komen vormen van toewijding voor die tot de ver­ beelding spreken. De in 2008 overleden jezuïet Jan van Kilsdonk gold bijvoorbeeld om zijn levenslange betrokkenheid bij moeilijk bereikbare groepen, sinds de jaren 1980 vooral aids-patiënten en HIV-geïnfecteerden, als 'pastor van Amsterdam'. Vanwege zijn inzet, door velen gewaardeerd als een authentieke pastorale betrok­ kenheid, werd hij in de hoofdstad op handen gedragen. Van Kilsdonk liet zichzelf duidelijk kennen als priester en religieus, maar cultiveerde tegelijkertijd een af­ stand tot tal van onderdelen van de katholieke leer. Precies deze ambivalentie te­ kent de houding die veel van zijn geloofsgenoten ten opzichte van de eigen kerk aannemen.

The expertise this requires is particularly evidenced in our daily work.

Since its establishment, COA has always had to deal with changes and acts on these changes in a flexible and decisive way. In 2007 changes occurred in various areas, both internally and externally. Thus, for example, the political environment in which COA operates changed when the new cabinet took office. But COA also made significant headway in the process of creating a solid organisational form. A form that can withstand any future downsizing and expansion without requiring interventions in the structure. In 2007 shifting between the various issues and developments, on our own or together with our partners, was the central focus of our activities; at a substantive level, expertise was the top priority. The “expertly making it work” in 2007 is conveyed in pictures and words in this annual report. General Director, Nurten Albayrak-Temur and Chairperson of the Supervisory Board in formation, Loek Hermans take you through the topics of 2007 in this annual report.
