The committee, which is named after the first Netherlands international of Surinamese descent Humphrey Mijnals, wants to bring about a sustainable change in the football landscape.
Ruud Gullit will be part of the committee chaired by Humberto Tan, along Daphne Koster.
The anti-racism project manager at the KNVB, Houssin Bezzai said, “It has been a long-cherished wish at the KNVB. We are happy with the Mijnals committee as a valuable addition to the initiatives that are already underway. Because collectively, if we bundle all knowledge and effort, we will continue to fight racism and discrimination.”
