I loan because:
"I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do. " - Edward Everett Hale I want to make a difference, and I think microfinance is a wonderful way to give individuals the opportunity to develop their full potential and take charge of their own destinies.
About me:
Some keywords to describe me and my life: Karoline. Female. 23. Norway. Jesus. Travelling. Concerts. Literature. Global health. Africa. Children. Iced coffee. Music. Movies. Clouds. History. Scarves. Languages. Fulham FC. Nepal. Maternal and Child Health. Volunteering. Animals. Cello. Life. Faith. Hope. Love. Received my BA in Development Studies from University of Oslo in June 2012. I've lived in the US, studied in London (SOAS) and India, volunteered in Ghana and done field work in Botswana. Last year I interned for six months at the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal. It was amazing and also one of the many reasons I founded Nepal Safe Birth Initiative (www.facebook.com/NepalSafeBirthInitiative). Currently interning at UNFPA Geneva, starting a MSc at London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine in September. I just can't see myself doing anything else than help other people unlock the incredible volumes of human capital in this world.
