The Rodolfo Rivas Project

Season 6, Episode 2. Miguel Antonio Villamizar Parra. Counsellor Legal Affairs at the World Trade Organization. WTO. Continuing with our second season, I had the pleasure of hosting Miguel Villamizar, who is likely among one of the most well-liked individuals in International Trade. When you meet him, you will know what I am talking about, and after listening to this conversation, you will likely agree with me. I didn't know this, but Miguel has been listening to the podcast for some time, so having him as a guest was a pleasure. I have wanted to invite him for a while; I am glad I finally did! I was happy to stroll down memory lane and listen to Miguel's journey. We covered how he got interested in International Economic Law after briefly flirting with Marine Biology! There is also much more he talks about, including the formative experience coaching the wunderkind team at the John Jackson Moot Court and how he got to the World Trade Organization. It was a great episode, but don't take my word for it. Listen for yourself.
