As a Norwegian

Posted by raymond on February 11, 2007

As a Norwegian citizen, I belong to a minority. A minority of people living in the so-called Developed World. A country that is at the top of the U.N. Development Index. A country that makes a fortune on selling oil, and then using some of the profits to invest in foreign countries.

As a Norwegian, I belong to a privileged minority.

As Norwegians, we are a country that has a small, yet noticeable role in the world. We send delegations of commerce and good-will around the world, doing deals and building schools. As Norwegians, we are part of wider networks, doing deals and making change globally - the Paris Club is just one of those wider networks.

As citizens of this world, whether we live in Norway or Nepal, China or Chicago, we have opportunities beyond our wildest imagination. Opportunities to share ideas across boundaries. To share ideas, collaborate, and together move forward.

DLTQ.org - Don’t Lose The Question - is a blog about some of the challenges that lie ahead. About finding new - and old - ways to connect the dots.

In a world where information floats ever faster, we must settle down on the issues that matter.

DLTQ.org hereby starts afresh once again.
