Management
The Atlantykron summer academy is coordinated by Sorin Repanovici, Vice President of David Lewis Anderson's World Genesis Foundation, which became the key organization coordinating international participation and funding for Atlantykron beginning in 1999. The Academy was originally founded in 1989 by Alexandru Mironov, Aurel Carasel and Sorin Repanovici. In 2009 the Academy celebrated its 20th anniversary in which Sorin Repanovici also received the "Lifetime of Hope" award for his personal and professional contributions in creating new hope and opportunities for youth in the world. The Lifetime of Hope award was established by the Norman Rosner family in honor of Paul Rosner, president of the U.S. Kickboxing Association and Senior Director of the World Genesis Foundation.
