About

My name is Martijn de Koning, born in 1972 a dull but nice small town called Eerde in the south of the Netherlands.In 1997 I graduated from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam as an anthropologist. After several small jobs I began in 1999 my work at the project Schoolcareersupport of the Nour mosque in Gouda and the social work organization Woonhuis. In that year I began my Ph.D project The religious identity of young Moroccan-Dutch muslim boys and girls in Gouda. I am still working on this project. In 2002 I joined the researchgroup Between secularization and religionization of prof. Droogers at the Vrije Universiteit and at this moment I am working in Leiden at the ISIM.

I am a member of the board of the Dutch Association for the Study of Middle East and Islam (MOI). One of the projects of this association is the magazine ZemZem.

In my researchpages you can find more information about my research and other activities.
