== Biography ==
Van Heijningen attended high school at the Stanislas College in Delft and from 1972 to 1979 studied sociology at the University of Amsterdam. During his military service he was active in the national servicemen’s union, the VVDM, serving for a year as a member of the national executive. From 1984 to 1992 Van Heijningen lived in Nicaragua, where his then girlfriend – she is now his wife – worked as a general practitioner in the mountain village of Comalapa in the Department of Chontales. Initially he was employed as a journalist and consultant, in addition to which he was a volunteer in education, took part in vaccination campaigns in settlements in the mountains and organised support for farmers’ cooperatives, which were being attacked by the Contras. As a result of these activities he was asked by the Nicaraguan authorities to help in establishing contacts with western development organisations. In 1988, on the basis of a contract with the Dutch Volunteers’ Foundation, he became a policy advisor to the Sandinista government as a policy advisor. Following the Sandinistas’ defeat in the 1990 elections Van Heijningen led a research project into the peasantry’s involvement both in the Sandinista revolution and with the US-backed armed Contra rebels. This research project and the political education programme which grew out of it formed part of the successful efforts on the part of the Sandinista Party (FSLN) to put an end to war-related violence and move towards the normalisation of social and political relations.
Following his return to the Netherlands Van Heijningen worked on a dissertation on peasant resistance to the Sandinista government in Nicaragua. On 5 December 1994 he was awarded his doctorate after a successful defence before Professor Gerrit Huizer at the Catholic University of Nijmegen.
From 1998 to October 2005 Van Heijningen was coordinator of the XminY Solidarity Fund. In this capacity he was involved in the action group Keer het Tij (Turn the Tide), in campaigns for peace in Afghanistan and Iraq with the action group Platform tegen de Nieuwe Oorlog (Platform against the New War), and with the foundation Stop de Uitverkoop van de Beschaving (Stop the Sell-off of Civilisation). He was joint initiator of ATTAC Nederland, which was for several years an active participant in the movement against neoliberal globalisation. It was during this period that he joined the SP, standing as the 13th placed candidate on the party’s list for the parliamentary elections of 2003. Following a disappointing result which saw him fail to be elected, Van Heijningen joined the SP’s parliamentary staff as an advisor on foreign policy. In his capacity as founder of the Comité Grondwet Nee (Committee for a No to the Constitution), in the referendum of 2005 he played a significant role in the successful campaign against the European Constitution. In May of the same year Van Heijningen, at the 13th Congress of the SP, was elected party secretary, with responsibility for everything which affects the party’s organisation.
