Rhodes, Darwin, Stuyvesant and Vespucci were adventurers in the purest sense of the word, roaming the world yearning for discovery and knowledge. Jacob Gelt Dekker is the modern day equivalent with an entrepreneurial spin. Through his adventures he has found his personal paradise, which his knowledge and experience permits him to present to the world through his creation of Project
Kura Hulanda in Curacao.
Welcome to the personal website of present-day adventurer, entrepreneur and philanthropist Jacob Gelt Dekker.
His efforts on all these fronts have been recognized with a knighthood from Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, naming Jacob Gelt Dekker an Officer in the Order of Oranje-Nassau, and presented at Fort Amsterdam, the residence of the Governor of the Netherlands Antilles in Willemstad,
Curacao.
