Schweitzer Klassifikation
Growing up as an expat child in Asia with migrant domestic workers in the house, Karien never asked herself why these women left their own children behind, and crossed a sea to look after her. That question arose later, and in 2012 Karien joined HOME, a charity that supports migrant workers in Singapore. In the following years she worked closely with domestic workers, and listened to their stories that were the inspiration for A Yellow House.
