The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly. Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value. - Hits: 1436 ## Schema ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=article&id=4330:members-council-jan-vinkenborg&catid=208","url":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=article&id=4330:members-council-jan-vinkenborg&catid=208","name":"Jan Vinkenborg — IVU International Council","description":"Member of the IVU Executive Committee (1960-1967), representing the Netherlands.","inLanguage":"en","isPartOf":[{"@id":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html#archive"},{"@id":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html#international-council"}],"about":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#/schema/person/jan-vinkenborg"},"mainEntity":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#/schema/person/jan-vinkenborg"},"publisher":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#organization"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https://ivu.org/#/schema/person/jan-vinkenborg","name":"Jan Vinkenborg","description":"Member of the IVU Executive Committee (1960-1967), representing the Netherlands.","url":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=article&id=4330:members-council-jan-vinkenborg&catid=208","memberOf":[{"@type":"OrganizationRole","roleName":"Member of the IVU Executive Committee","memberOf":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#organization"},"startDate":"1960","endDate":"1967","description":"Represented: Netherlands"}]}]} ``` ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://ivu.org" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "History of IVU", "item": "https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "History of the Vegetarian Societies", "item": "https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=category&id=46" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "members", "item": "https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=category&id=207" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 5, "name": "council", "item": "https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=category&id=208" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 6, "name": "Jan Vinkenborg", "item": "https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html" } ] } ``` ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Article", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html" }, "headline": "Jan Vinkenborg", "description": "Jan Vinkenborg: IVU Executive Committee 1960-67 The Vegetarian World Forum , No. IX - Autumn 1955: photos from the IVU World Vegetarian Congress, Paris, 1955 In the picture at the bottom are Mr.", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "International Vegetarian Union", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://ivu.org/images/logos/logo-ivu-tranparent-background.png" } }, "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Alex Fernandes", "url": "https://ivu.org/international-council.html" }, "datePublished": "2026-06-30T23:45:26+00:00", "dateCreated": "2026-06-25T00:17:47+00:00", "dateModified": "2026-10-08T00:54:39+00:00" } ```
