Kenya: Born in the small Dutch town of Herkenbosch, into a middle class family, Marion van Dijck and her two siblings grew up in an environment with plenty of outdoor activities, such as safely riding bikes in the streets. At the time, there was a lot of youth activism in the town, which made her conscious of social movements and societal needs.
