About myself

My name is Asbjørn Wahl. I am 58 years old, and I am currently working as national co-ordinator of the Campaign for the Welfare State (For velferdsstaten). In addition to that, I work as an adviser at the Norwegian Union of Municipal and General Employees (Fagforbundet). I am a member of the co-ordinating committee of Forum Social Europe, which is an informal network for progressive trade unionists in Europe. I am also active in the World/European/Norway Social Forum as well as in the Labour and Globalisation network.

Over the last 25 years, I have mainly been working in the trade union movement, for the last twelve years at the Norwegian Union of Municipal and General Employees. For 3-4 years in the 1990s, I worked at the head office of the International Transport Workers' Federation (ITF) in London. I am currently Vice President of the ITF Road Transport Workers' Section.
