Over the past 15 years Marie has worked to promote children’s rights through lobbying and advocacy in Scotland, Denmark, Kenya and the Netherlands.

She has been involved in various projects aimed at creating awareness of the UNCRC and children’s rights both on international, national and local level.
Marie holds a degree in Aesthetics and Culture and has used her skills to develop creative toolkits to support children with additional support needs to share their views in child-centred and unique ways that are meaningful to the individual child.
