Andersson is unsure about working in Sweden with UNICEF at the office due to the lack of need for staff in Stockholm. “The real work is done abroad,” he added. “Hopefully one day.” He is currently seeking an internship or work abroad to learn more about international organizations and how they implement projects. He said the best thing about visiting the Gambia was that it was “interesting and exciting to see how the work that I have promoted is actually implemented. But money itself doesn’t solve the problems. There have to be devoted people and functional organisations as well.”
