Jacob Philip (Jaap) van Praag (born 11 May 1911 in Amsterdam – died 12 April 1981 in Utrecht) was a Dutch humanist who played a prominent role in establishing the Dutch Humanist League. He was its chairman from 1946 to 1969. And, from 1954 to 1974, he was a member of a provincial Executive.
Jaap van Praag
Van Praag was one of the first professors in Humanist studies in University of Leiden (1964–1979). He played a major role in the founding of the International Humanist and Ethical Union and was its chairman from inception in 1952 until 1975.
Name confusionedit
There is another Jaap van Praag, his namesake, a football administrator and former chairman of local football club Ajax Amsterdam with whom he is often confused. Both were around the same age (born 1911 and 1910), both born in Amsterdam and both survived the war hiding in the city. In addition both played a role in broadcasting for the VARA.
