Erik’s mission at BankTrack is to keep our website up to date and in good shape, and identify funding sources for our work.
Erik spent most of his working life as a salesman, and for the large part, this meant advising private and small business clients on insurance and financial products. At the same time, he worked as a volunteer for Amnesty International coordinating regional campaign work. Through an unlikely turn of events, he came across BankTrack whilst researching topics for a local newspaper and typing ‘Nijmegen’ into WikiLeaks. After writing an article about BankTrack, he decided that it would be the perfect organisation for him to work for - a crossroads between his background in finance and his human rights work. And so, he started in February 2016, eventually becoming BankTrack’s Website Content Manager.
Erik was educated at the HEAO Business School in Arnhem, where he studied Logistics, Marketing and Economics. Besides his work at BankTrack he volunteers as an editor for local newspaper De Nijmeegse Stadskrant, and at a local secondhand bookshop called Books4Life. He considers himself a nerdy text-driven book worm and still stubbornly believes he has it in him to write a work of fiction.

Camilla's mission at BankTrack is to bring our Banks and Climate campaign forward.
Camilla joined BankTrack in September 2023 as an intern for the Banks and Climate campaign. Her ambition is to work towards a more sustainable global economy, where businesses make as little impact as possible on the planet and are invested in the welfare and health of their workers and consumers. Growing up in the Italian Alps, she inherently holds nature in high regard and dreams of renovating an old cottage with a large permaculture garden in her native village. When she is not researching and drafting a paper or an article, you can find her advocating for sustainable fashion all over social media, knitting a sweater while drinking a hot cup of tea, or hiking the hills of Southern Limburg. Before arriving at BankTrack, Camilla volunteered as a human rights researcher for Lawyers Without Borders and wrote articles on climate change and human rights for a local NGO. She holds a LLM in International Law and Security from the University of Glasgow and she is finishing her Master's Degree in European, Comparative, and Transnational Law from the University of Trento.
