I am Wiede, an ambitious yet confused young guy excited about starting an impactful career in international cooperation. I am about to complete my first year working as a junior WASH expert in the beautiful country of Burundi, where my colleagues and I work on creating safe school environments with access to clean water and sanitation facilities.
I have another year ahead before I return to my home country of Belgium, but I’m already pondering about what’s next. Which skills should I develop ? Will I have more impact in a small or large organisation ? What is my position as a highly privileged person in this unjust world ?
So I turn to the EA community in the hope to find some answers and guidance on these and the 1000 other questions I ask myself on a daily basis. But most of all, I am excited about getting to know some like-minded people !
