Doughnut Economics About DEAL DEAL Team Careers FAQ Principles & Guidelines Wider Movement Contact UsHi,
I am Walter from Belgium. I am an economist by degree and a CFO by profession.
I have lived and worked almost my entire life abroad: first 10 years in Africa, then 20 years in the Middle East and finally (but unfortunately only) 1 year in Asia. It was a bit of an adaptation when returning to Belgium after 30+ years. I worked primarily in the construction, engineering and energy sectors. Since returning to Belgium I started my own consultancy business (in finance obviously).
Since my younger days in the 70s and 80s, I have always felt aligned with the green movement but that got a bit lost in transition as I lived abroad and my career became my prime focus. Since returning back to Belgium, I took it up in a serious manner and became a Climate Corps Reality Leader. As a result, I equally want to focus my consultancy business on the intersection of sustainability, strategy and finance. In particular, I would like to help companies imptove on their ESG ratings and transition from a linear to a circular business model.
Besides my personal passion about the environment, social justice, good governance etc, I equally feel that my generation has to give something back to the younger generations and I want to make sure that my kids, grandkids and their kids still live on a healthy, bio-diverse blue dot in a just and equal manner.
I look forward engaging with and learning from all of you!
