career with purpose in public finance management: Límberg Chero","Blog","_Our colleague Límberg Chero has played an important role in establishing the Basel Institute’s strong presence in Peru. From the early years – even before a formal office existed in Lima – to his current work with the [Subnational Public Finance Management Programme](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fpublic-finance-peru) ([Programa GFP Subnacional](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gfpsubnacional.pe\u002F)), his journey reflects a great passion for fighting corruption. It began far from the capital, in an ancient town in northern Peru, and was strengthened through rigorous academic training and years of public service._\n\n_This article is part of a series on careers in fighting financial crime and opportunities to learn and study with the Basel Institute._\n\n### The take-off in Peru\n\nMy journey at the Basel Institute on Governance began even before the Lima office existed.\n\nIn 2014, together with colleagues from the Basel Institute – including our dearly missed Managing Director of two decades, Gretta Fenner, and my colleague Óscar Solórzano – we launched a public finance management project funded by the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs of Switzerland (SECO).\n\nAlthough centred on macroeconomics and fiscal policy, its essential goal was to make the public budget tangible and meaningful for citizens.\n\nTo do this, we moved beyond traditional approaches and integrated innovative tools, like the use of behavioural science to prevent corruption and foster integrity in the management of public finances. This comprehensive perspective – a novelty in Peru at the time – was key to the project proposal’s success.\n\nSince then, the Subnational Public Finance Management Programme for regional and municipal governments in Peru has retained SECO’s trust for more than 10 years.\n\nThe secret behind this success lies not only in improved processes and fiscal discipline, but in the continuous work with people committed to change. Internally, the Basel Institute’s team is multidisciplinary, open to change and committed to bridging practice and academic insight.\n\n### Bridging differences for sustainability\n\nWorking at the Basel Institute on Governance is truly a privilege. Our Lima office has gained remarkable regional recognition thanks to a distinctive approach: practical, rigorous and focused on building strong relationships with key actors in the fight against corruption, money laundering and terrorist financing.\n\nI currently lead the Subnational PFM Programme’s Interinstitutional Coordination, ensuring the programme’s effectiveness and, above all, the sustainability of reforms at subnational levels, in alignment with national efforts.\n\nThis work requires the continuous reconciliation of the different “languages”, worldviews and objectives of people across Peru’s diverse regions.\n\nOur aim is to craft strategies and messages that resonate equally to ministries, regional governments and municipalities – aligning technical agendas with political ones, and engaging civil society and academia along the way.\n\nThis challenge becomes more manageable because of my background: I come from an ancient town in northern Peru, Monsefú. Being perceived as someone close yet trained in competitive academic and professional environments fosters trust and legitimacy.\n\n### From economics to a global mission\n\nAs a child, leaving my town felt impossible. Universities were located in other regions and the educational options available largely led to local career paths tied to a modest economy with little real opportunities. At that time, the country had not yet experienced the trade openness or business development it has today.\n\nThrough hard work and the trust of people who believed in me, however, I earned scholarships that allowed me to study in highly competitive environments in Peru’s capital, Lima, more than 1,000 kilometres away from my hometown.\n\nMy foundations were solid: I completed my undergraduate studies in economics and later specialised through the Central Bank’s Economics Programme, which admits only 30 candidates out of thousands of applicants, as well as through an internship at the World Bank in Korea.\n\nI worked as an economist at institutions such as the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the Central Reserve Bank of Peru, the Andean Community (CAN) and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).\n\nAt that time, my professional life felt complete: it combined specialised technical work with teaching and active participation in international networks. These included the Andrés Bello Agreement Network, which brought together university researchers from multiple countries to reflect on and advance regional integration in Ibero-America, as well as the Puentes Network, which focused on promoting transparency in investment by Latin American companies.\n\nBut everything changed when I fully grasped the scope of the challenges posed by global corruption. I never imagined my economics degree would only be the starting point of a much bigger journey. From that moment on, my purpose became clear: to dedicate all my experience to strengthening this fight against forces that hinder global prosperity.\n\n### Innovating with little budget\n\nIn Latin America, the Basel Institute is known for results-oriented innovation. I have witnessed firsthand how every new skill quickly finds a practical application and how we can make significant contributions without the need for additional funding.\n\nFor example, I could draw on my Master’s degrees in Process Innovation and Government Control, and in Public Management and Education (Andragogy) to enrich various initiatives we pursued, such as:\n\n*   supporting regional governments in implementing structural reforms in significantly shorter timeframes;\n*   strengthening Peru’s [Public Finance Management Experts Network](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnews\u002Fswiss-support-public-finance-management-experts-network-peru), which was recognised during [Peru’s National Innovation Week](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnews\u002Fperus-innovation-week-showcases-training-concept-our-public-finance-management-team);\n*   and reducing dropout rates and increasing course completion in our Internal Control and Integrity courses through, among other things, the introduction of “virtual coffee breaks”.\n\nDuring the pandemic, we leveraged my background in education to [enhance our online learning and training approach and results](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fblog\u002Fhow-design-virtual-training-course-works-your-context-experiences-peru). For example, we started to deliver courses and training across the country via Facebook, a platform that at the time did not charge for mobile data usage and allowed public officials to participate even using low-end mobile phones. These courses have since been integrated into [Basel LEARN](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002F) – the Basel Institute’s online training and learning hub.\n\nTogether, these efforts enabled us to develop courses that reached more than 6,000 participants in five years – all without additional funding.\n\n### It’s all about people\n\nMy work has focused on ensuring the sustainability of tangible improvements to public finance management that the PFM Programme’s experts helped implement in areas as varied as:\n\n*   distribution of vaccines and educational materials for children;\n*   property tax collection in major cities;\n*   restitution of confiscated funds;\n*   and the fight against “green corruption”.\n\nIn this context, the most valuable asset is our network. I have more than 20,000 contacts on my business phone – all professionals who directly or indirectly contribute to the Programme’s goals, and above all, friends committed to building a better Peru.\n\nThis network generates mutual benefits: it enables the rapid dissemination of good practices, drastically reduces event preparation costs (we secure many venues at zero cost) and ensures massive impact.\n\nColleagues across the Basel Institute are a vital part of this network. Our close collaboration has led me to take part in a wide range of diverse and fascinating projects – from serving as a director and writer for several programme-produced videos, to moderating international events on asset recovery, and exchanging methodologies used in public finance management that can be applied to asset recovery and repatriation.\n\n### The foundation that inspires and sustains hope\n\nThe Peruvian context presents unique challenges. There is high political volatility, evidenced by the fact that there have been eight presidents in the past 10 years despite only two presidential elections in that period. This means that “VUCA” (volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity) and the notion of “chaos” are part of daily life.\n\nYet, beneath this instability lies a “subsoil” of ethically committed public officials and technical professionals who allow progress to continue. They are my daily source of inspiration.\n\nAs I often say: There are more good people than bad – they just make less noise. This reflects a reality: the visible efforts of honest Peruvians provide a stronger foundation than the corruption cases that shake us, even if public perception sometimes suggests otherwise.\n\nIn sum, I am deeply grateful for the privilege of engaging with my country and its challenges through work that strengthens public integrity and the fight against corruption. Thank you, Basel Institute – and its magnificent team around the globe – for allowing me to continue serving the world, and especially my country.\n\n### Inspired?\n\nTake a look at the learning

carrera con propósito en gestión de finanzas públicas: Límberg Chero","_Nuestro colega Límberg Chero ha desempeñado un rol importante en la consolidación de la presencia del Basel Institute en Perú. Desde los años previos a la apertura de la oficina en Lima hasta su trabajo actual en el [Programa GFP Subnacional](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.gfpsubnacional.pe\u002F), su trayectoria refleja un profundo compromiso con la integridad pública y la lucha contra la corrupción. Su camino comenzó lejos de la capital, en un pueblo milenario del norte del país, y se fue forjando a través de una rigurosa formación académica y años de servicio público._\n\n_Este artículo forma parte de una serie sobre carreras vinculadas al crimen financiero y sobre las oportunidades de aprendizaje y formación que ofrece el Basel Institute._\n\n### El despegue en Perú\n\nMi camino en el Basel Institute on Governance comenzó antes de que la sede de Lima existiera.\n\nEn el año 2014, junto a varios colegas del Basel Institute, incluyendo a nuestra recordada Directora General durante 20 años, Gretta Fenner, y mi colega Óscar Solórzano, iniciamos la puesta en marcha de un proyecto de finanzas públicas financiado por la Secretaría de Estado para Asuntos Económicos de la Confederación Suiza (SECO).\n\nAunque el núcleo del proyecto era la macroeconomía y la política fiscal, el objetivo esencial era asegurar que el presupuesto público fuera tangible y significativo para la ciudadanía.\n\nEsto nos obligó a trascender los enfoques tradicionales e integrar herramientas innovadoras, tales como las ciencias del comportamiento, para fomentar la integridad y prevenir la corrupción en la gestión de finanzas públicas. Esta visión integral, una novedad en el país en aquella época, fue vital para el éxito de la propuesta.\n\nDesde entonces, el Programa de fortalecimiento de la Gestión Financiera Pública de gobiernos regionales y locales del Perú ha mantenido la confianza de SECO por más de diez años, una longevidad prácticamente inigualable.\n\nEl secreto de este éxito no radica solo en la mejora de procesos o la disciplina fiscal, sino en el trabajo permanente con las personas que impulsan el cambio. Para ello, el Basel Institute cuenta con un equipo multidisciplinario, abierto al cambio y comprometido con crear puentes entre la práctica y la academia.\n\n### Uniendo lenguajes para la sostenibilidad\n\nTrabajar en el Basel Institute on Governance es un verdadero privilegio. Nuestra oficina en Lima ha logrado una notable aceptación regional gracias a un enfoque de trabajo único: práctico, profundo y enfocado en construir relaciones sólidas con actores clave en la lucha contra la corrupción, el lavado de activos y el financiamiento del terrorismo.\n\nActualmente, lidero la Coordinación Interinstitucional del Programa GFP Subnacional. Mi rol busca asegurar la buena marcha y, sobre todo, la sostenibilidad de reformas en los niveles subnacionales, en coordinación con el nivel nacional.\n\nEsto implica un esfuerzo constante por conjugar los lenguajes, cosmovisiones y objetivos completamente diferentes de personas de las distintas regiones del país.\n\nNuestra meta es crear estrategias y mensajes que sean relevantes tanto para un ministerio, un gobierno regional o una municipalidad por igual, para así alinear las agendas técnicas con las políticas, incluyendo tanto a la sociedad civil como a la academia.\n\nEste desafío se facilita gracias a mi origen: provengo de un pueblo milenario del norte del Perú, Monsefú. El ser percibido como alguien cercano, pero que se pudo formar en ambientes académicos y profesionales competitivos, facilita la confianza y legitimidad.\n\n### De la economía a una misión global\n\nDurante mi niñez, salir de mi pueblo parecía imposible. Las universidades estaban en otra ciudad y solo brindaban la oportunidad de seguir alguna carrera local, enfocada en actividades de una economía poco desarrollada y con escasas oportunidades reales. Por ese entonces, el país no tenía la apertura comercial ni el desarrollo empresarial que tiene hoy.\n\nGracias a mucho esfuerzo y la fe de personas anónimas, pude acceder a becas para formarme en ambientes altamente competitivos en Lima, la capital de Perú, a 1.000 kilómetros de mi ciudad natal.\n\nMi base fue sólida: estudié economía como carrera de pregrado y luego me especialicé con el curso de Economía del Banco Central (donde solo entran 30 de entre miles de postulantes) y haciendo una pasantía en el Banco Mundial en Corea.\n\nLuego trabajé con temas de macroeconomía en instituciones como el Ministerio de Economía y Finanzas, el Banco Central de Reserva del Perú, la Comunidad Andina (CAN) y el Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID).\n\nPor ese entonces, mi vida profesional parecía completa: no solo incluía mis actividades profesionales especializadas, sino que también la docencia y la participación en redes internacionales. Por ejemplo, participaba en el Convenio Andrés Bello, que unía a investigadores de universidades de varios países para reflexionar y actuar en temas de integración en Iberoamérica, y en la Red Puentes, que unía esfuerzos en torno a la transparencia de las inversiones de las empresas translatinas.\n\nPero el giro llegó al entender a fondo los megadesafíos globales de la corrupción. Nunca imaginé que mis estudios en economía serían tan solo el punto de partida de una ruta mucho más importante. Desde entonces, mi propósito ha sido volcar toda mi experiencia para fortalecer la lucha contra los flagelos que impiden la prosperidad global.\n\n### Innovando con presupuesto cero\n\nEl Basel Institute en Latinoamérica se caracteriza por su innovación orientada a resultados. Yo mismo soy testigo de cómo cada nueva habilidad encuentra un espacio de aplicación y permite realizar importantes aportes sin requerir de presupuesto adicional.\n\nPor ejemplo, mis maestrías en Innovación de Procesos y Control Gubernamental y en Gerencia Pública y Educación (Andragogía) han sido canalizadas para enriquecer diversas iniciativas:\n\n*   ayudando a gobiernos regionales a realizar cambios estructurales en plazos mucho menores al promedio;\n*   enriqueciendo la [Red de Expertos GFP](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnews\u002Fswiss-support-public-finance-management-experts-network-peru) del país (iniciativa reconocida en la [Semana Nacional de Innovación de Perú](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnews\u002Fperus-innovation-week-showcases-training-concept-our-public-finance-management-team)),\n*   reduciendo la deserción a la vez que aumentando el número de aprobados en nuestros cursos de Control Interno e Integridad, gracias a la implementación de \"coffee breaks virtuales\".\n\nDurante la pandemia, aprovechamos mi formación en educación para [potenciar una iniciativa de educación y entrenamiento](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fblog\u002Fhow-design-virtual-training-course-works-your-context-experiences-peru) que permitía llevar cursos y capacitaciones a todo el Perú a través de Facebook. En ese entonces, la red social no cobraba por el uso de datos móviles y permitía el acceso a todos los funcionarios públicos, incluso si solo tenían celulares de gama baja. Ahora, esos cursos se han integrado a [Basel LEARN](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002F), la plataforma educativa del Basel Institute.\n\nEn conjunto, logramos implementar cursos que contaron con más de 6.000 alumnos durante cinco años, todo sin usar presupuesto adicional.\n\n### La importancia de las redes de contacto\n\nMi labor ha estado enfocada en asegurar la sostenibilidad de mejoras tangibles desarrolladas por los expertos del Programa GFP en temas tan variados como:\n\n*   la distribución de vacunas y materiales educativos a niños,\n*   la recaudación predial en ciudades principales,\n*   la restitución de fondos decomisados\n*   y la lucha contra la \"corrupción verde\".\n\nEn este contexto, lo más valioso es la red de trabajo. Actualmente, tengo más de 20 mil contactos en mi teléfono, todos profesionales relevantes directa o indirectamente en la actividad del Programa GFP, pero principalmente amigos comprometidos con el ideal de un Perú mejor.\n\nEsta gran red genera beneficios mutuos, ya que permite la difusión de buenas prácticas, reduce drásticamente los costos de preparación de eventos (tenemos muchos locales a costo cero) y asegura un impacto masivo.\n\nLos colegas dentro del mismo Basel Institute son también parte importante de esta red. Nuestra estrecha colaboración me ha llevado a participar en proyectos tan diferentes e interesantes como director y guionista en varios videos producidos por el programa, moderar eventos internacionales de recuperación de activos e intercambiar metodologías usadas en finanzas públicas para la recuperación y repatriación de activos.\n\n### La base que inspira y sostiene la esperanza\n\nEl contexto peruano presenta retos únicos. Hay una alta volatilidad política, evidenciada por el hecho de haber tenido ocho Presidentes en los últimos diez años, cuando en teoría elegimos uno cada cinco años. Esto hace que los entornos “VUCA” (volátiles, inciertos, complejos y ambiguos) y conceptos como “caos” cobren un sentido literal en nuestro día a día.\n\nNo obstante, existe un \"subsuelo\" de funcionarios y técnicos éticamente responsables que permite que el trabajo avance y que me inspira día a día.\n\nComo suelo decir en mis charlas: \"Los buenos somos más, pero hacemos menos bulla.\" Esta frase refleja la realidad: el esfuerzo visible de los peruanos honestos es una buena base que supera en valía a los casos de corrupción que nos golpean, aunque muchas veces la percepción nos diga lo contrario.\n\nEn suma, el privilegio de aproximarme al país y a sus desafíos, implementando temas que sé que aportan al fortalecimiento de la integridad pública y la lucha contra la corrupción, hace que agradezca la oportunidad:\n\nGracias, Basel Institute, gracias a su grandioso equipo en todo el mundo, por la oportunidad de seguir sirviendo al mundo y, especialmente, a mi país.\n\n### ¿Te

than Gantt charts: fighting financial crime as a Programme Manager","_Misozi Samuti Chimbe, Programme Manager for Southern and East Africa at the Basel Institute’s International Centre for Asset Recovery (ICAR), reflects on how her passion for public service has led her to pursue the bigger mission of protecting public resources, and how her work has become a deeply personal endeavour. This article is part of a series on careers in fighting financial crime and opportunities to learn and study with the Basel Institute._\n\n> Financial crime has real, tangible effects on our everyday lives. And those of us with strong management skills can play a role in countering it.\n\nLike many young people, I had various ideas about what a fulfilling and impactful career could look like. My original goal was to follow in my father’s footsteps and become a biomedical practitioner. However, life and my faith have led me to believe that God had other plans. I ended up studying and excelling in accounting, a path that would later open unexpected and rewarding opportunities.\n\n### An accountant with a passion for public service\n\nI began my professional journey as an intern at the Malawi Revenue Authority. From there, I moved on to TotalEnergies, gaining valuable private-sector experience as an accountant.\n\nAlthough a career in the private sector looked promising, my passion for public service continued to grow. This led me to join a Canadian non-profit organisation working to build healthy communities in Africa. Eventually, I transitioned into financial administration when I joined the Basel Institute’s International Centre for Asset Recovery (ICAR) in 2018 in support of the UK-funded Tackling Serious and Organised Corruption (TSOC) programme in Malawi.\n\nIt was through this transition that I discovered the world of countering financial crime and asset recovery. I became Programme Manager for Malawi not long after joining the Institute. As the Basel Institute strengthened its regional hubs and its interactions between different teams and programmes, my role later expanded to that of Programme Manager for Southern and East Africa as a whole.\n\nCombining my background in financial management and compliance with programme management allowed me to connect technical skills to the bigger mission of protecting public resources. This journey has not only shaped my career but also given me a strong sense of direction and purpose.\n\n### Having impact is fulfilling\n\nFinancial crime can seem abstract and distant, but through my work, I have realised it has profound consequences and is deeply personal. It is not merely about money lost in complex systems. It is about hospitals that never get built, children who are denied quality education and communities that are robbed of opportunities to thrive. And I can do something about it.\n\nAs a programme manager, I am naturally drawn to problem solving and to identifying unlikely connections between the work I do and the people I work with to create positive change. Working in countering financial crime takes this to another level. It means that my work contributes to safeguarding critical resources and making sure they benefit society, rather than being siphoned away through corruption and other forms of abuse.\n\nThere’s never a dull moment in managing financial crime programmes – from balancing risks and designing activities that are feasible, sustainable and grounded in local context, to tailoring solutions to ensure partner buy-in and ownership for long-term impact.\n\n### It’s the people\n\nAnother aspect that truly fulfils me is the human side of this work. I have had the privilege of engaging in conversations that stretch from high-level policy rooms and international forums to discussions with young people, women in rural markets and public servants. Each interaction has reinforced for me how financial crime silently steals from our collective future and why our efforts truly matter.\n\nThrough my work, I have come to appreciate the immense efforts of women and men in our law enforcement agencies, civil society and the media who work tirelessly to secure the future of our generation and those to come, often against great odds. Before my exposure to this field, I would not have recognised these efforts. Understanding financial crime and how it affects each and every citizen remains a work in progress in many regions and jurisdictions, including my country Malawi.\n\n### A global community driven by a shared goal\n\nWorking with diverse teams of experts from my country, the region and around the world – all driven by the same goal of fighting financial crime – has been one of the greatest sources of motivation and pride in my career. I have seen a South African expert advising on a European financial crime case, just as I have witnessed a Kenyan colleague leave his home to share his knowledge and experience in another country within our region.\n\nTo me, this is the best demonstration of _ubuntu_ – a deep sense of oneness and shared humanity that transcends all differences. It reminds me that this work is not only about protecting resources but also about standing together to safeguard our collective future.\n\nBeing part of these collective efforts gives me a purpose beyond a paycheque. Every policy we review, every illicit asset we help recover and every case we support is a step towards restoring hope and opportunities for future generations. It is not just about Gantt charts and compliance, it is so much more!\n\n### A formal foundation and learning from the best\n\nWhile I began with a formal foundation in accounting, continuous learning has been critical in helping me evolve and remain effective. My accounting background has enabled me to handle tasks such as leading donor audits and ensuring compliance. But it is the on-the-job training and exposure to experts in financial investigation, asset recovery and policy that have truly shaped my professional growth.\n\nI have been fortunate to learn from some of the best practitioners in the field through the Basel Institute. Beyond technical knowledge, these mentors have taught me to see the bigger picture and understand where I can add value.\n\nI have also deliberately taken advantage of all ICAR-delivered training opportunities, both in-country and online. Today, I can analyse policy, discuss FATF ratings and justify best practices for case support – skills that have made me a valuable member of my team.\n\n### Relationships built on trust and a common vision\n\nEqually important has been the power of networking and relationship building. Connecting with peers across government, civil society and international partners has shown me that success does not rely on technical expertise alone. Trust, collaboration and a shared vision are critical to achieving meaningful change. These relationships have been some of my greatest teachers, helping me grow not just as a professional but also as a person dedicated to service.\n\nIn the end, working in financial crime has given me far more than I ever expected: a chance to contribute to national and global change, to protect future generations and to find deep fulfilment in a career that is about much more than numbers and compliance.\n\n### Learn more\n\n*   [Basel LEARN](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002F) – our online training and learning hub with free eLearning courses and lots more\n*   [Basel STUDY](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fstudy) – our new postgraduate programmes on anti-corruption and asset recovery with the University of Basel","2025-07-23",[28],"more-than-gantt-charts-fighting-financial-crime-as-a-programme-manager-2835",[725],2835,[38],[725],{"id":960,"storage":44,"filename_disk":961,"filename_download":732,"title":950,"type":733,"created_on":948,"modified_on":948,"charset":14,"filesize":962,"width":735,"height":963,"duration":14,"embed":14,"description":14,"location":14,"tags":14,"metadata":964,"focal_point_x":14,"focal_point_y":14,"tus_id":14,"tus_data":14,"uploaded_on":948},"1d00915d-4ab3-469d-9b84-78727fdafb78","1d00915d-4ab3-469d-9b84-78727fdafb78.webp",24436,533,{},[966],{"id":967,"news_id":968,"countries_id":983},7792,{"id":947,"status":13,"user_created":58,"date_created":948,"user_updated":59,"date_updated":949,"title":950,"type":717,"body":951,"image":960,"date":952,"topic":969,"slug":954,"activity":970,"nid":956,"topics":971,"activities":972,"programme":14,"area":14,"websites":14,"translation_of":14,"language":22,"countries":973,"tags":974,"authors":978,"images":980,"translations":981,"content":982},[28],[725],[38],[725],[967],[975,976,977],5557,5558,5640,[979],1350,[],[],[],{"id":984,"name":985,"code":986,"latitude":987,"longitude":988},153,"Malawi","MW",-13.25431,34.30152,[990,1003,1016],{"id":975,"news_id":991,"tags_id":1002},{"id":947,"status":13,"user_created":58,"date_created":948,"user_updated":59,"date_updated":949,"title":950,"type":717,"body":951,"image":960,"date":952,"topic":992,"slug":954,"activity":993,"nid":956,"topics":994,"activities":995,"programme":14,"area":14,"websites":14,"translation_of":14,"language":22,"countries":996,"tags":997,"authors":998,"images":999,"translations":1000,"content":1001},[28],[725],[38],[725],[967],[975,976,977],[979],[],[],[],{"id":296,"name":297},{"id":976,"news_id":1004,"tags_id":1015},{"id":947,"status":13,"user_created":58,"date_created":948,"user_updated":59,"date_updated":949,"title":950,"type":717,"body":951,"image":960,"date":952,"topic":1005,"slug":954,"activity":1006,"nid":956,"topics":1007,"activities":1008,"programme":14,"area":14,"websites":14,"translation_of":14,"language":22,"countries":1009,"tags":1010,"authors":1011,"images":1012,"translations":1013,"content":1014},[28],[725],[38],[725],[967],[975,976,977],[979],[],[],[],{"id":790,"name":791},{"id":977,"news_id":1017,"tags_id":1028},{"id":947,"status":13,"user_created":58,"date_created":948,"user_updated":59,"date_updated":949,"title":950,"type":717,"body":951,"image":960,"date":952,"topic":1018,"slug":954,"activity":1019,"nid":956,"topics":1020,"activities":1021,"programme":14,"area":14,"websites":14,"translation_of":14,"language":22,"countries":1022,"tags":1023,"authors":1024,"images":1025,"translations":1026,"content":1027},[28],[725],[38],[725],[967],[975,976,977],[979],[],[],[],{"id":4,"name":5},[1030],{"id":979,"news_id":1031,"authors_id":1042},{"id":947,"status":13,"user_created":58,"date_created":948,"user_updated":59,"date_updated":949,"title":950,"type":717,"body":951,"image":960,"date":952,"topic":1032,"slug":954,"activity":1033,"nid":956,"topics":1034,"activities":1035,"programme":14,"area":14,"websites":14,"translation_of":14,"language":22,"countries":1036,"tags":1037,"authors":1038,"images":1039,"translations":1040,"content":1041},[28],[725],[38],[725],[967],[975,976,977],[979],[],[],[],{"id":1043,"name":1044,"position":14,"image":14},566,"Misozi Samuti",[],[],[],{"id":1049,"status":13,"date_created":1050,"date_updated":1051,"title":1052,"type":717,"body":1053,"date":1054,"topic":1055,"slug":1057,"activity":1058,"nid":1059,"topics":1060,"activities":1061,"programme":14,"area":14,"websites":14,"language":22,"image":1062,"translation_of":14,"countries":1067,"tags":1094,"authors":1162,"images":1178,"translations":1179,"content":1180},10569,"2025-08-21T23:48:02.000Z","2026-05-08T21:11:15.000Z","A career targeting the finances behind environmental crime – how I got there","_This article is part of a series on careers in fighting financial crime and opportunities to learn and study with the Basel Institute. Our colleague Joseph Mihajason Rakotondramanana shares his professional journey, from the private sector and his early steps as an analyst in Madagascar to his current role as a Specialist in Financial Investigation with the Basel Institute’s Green Corruption Programme._\n\n> The link between financial crime and environmental harm is too often ignored. All the more reason to act.\n\nWhen I look at my colleagues at the Basel Institute, I see people from different backgrounds, each on their individual professional path. But they all share a commitment to confronting illicit finance. Personally, I find this mission profoundly rewarding, and I'm convinced that capacity building plays a key role in forging a career with direction and impact.\n\n### From private sector to supporting law enforcement\n\nSwitching from my work in a start-up company to my first job as an analyst at the Financial Intelligence Unit of Madagascar was not easy. It took two attempts and a lot of patience. Back then, the term \"money laundering\" was still unfamiliar to many. My initial motivation was simple: I wanted to learn and grow through hands-on experience.\n\nOver the past 10 years, I have developed a strong investigative mindset and a deep desire to contribute to justice in concrete ways. That commitment led me to my current position as part of the Green Corruption team at the Basel Institute on Governance where I now use my skills to support a cause I care deeply about: to protect ecosystems that are under threat.\n\nAs a financial investigation advisor, I focus on building strong partnerships with law enforcement agencies and training local partners in financial investigation techniques related to environmental crime. This capacity building approach empowers them to subsequently support analysts, investigators, prosecutors and judges in real cases. The ultimate goal is to enhance the likelihood of securing convictions and potentially recovering illicit assets.\n\n### A shared mission with real impact\n\nFighting financial crime linked to wildlife trafficking and other environmental crimes is at the heart of my professional mission. Protecting our environment is a shared responsibility, one that calls for joint action and long-term dedication.\n\nWorking with a team that shares the same values strengthens my sense of purpose and reminds me of the power of working together. When we move forward as one, driven by a common goal, we do so with strength, confidence and clarity.\n\nThere is no greater reward than receiving a heartfelt thank-you from a partner agency who applied our guidance successfully and as a result managed to make progress in a case. It’s in those moments that you truly feel the impact your work is having, not only professionally, but also personally.\n\n### Learning as a lifelong strategy\n\nLife is a constant learning experience. Like any solid structure, the quality of our foundations determines what we can build. Education is important but it’s just the beginning. I have learned that continuously strengthening these foundations is key to long-term growth and resilience.\n\nThat is also why, after my Bachelor’s in Finance and Business Development and my Master’s in Economics and Management, I’m currently pursuing a PhD in Economics and Policy of Natural Resources at the University of Antananarivo.\n\nProfessional training has also played an important role in my journey. International courses have helped me reach new goals and build valuable networks. I’ve invested significant time in online training, especially through platforms like [Basel LEARN](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002F), the Basel Institute’s online learning hub. With courses on topics such as international cooperation and open-source intelligence, I was able to strengthen my skills and stay up to date in this dynamic field.\n\nTo young professionals: learn from others and also by yourselves. Take every opportunity to grow, especially through study programmes like our [Basel STUDY](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fstudy) postgraduate opportunities with the University of Basel. Do not hesitate to join the fight against corruption and financial crime. We need your passion, your perspective and your skills. You are part of the solution.","2025-07-14",[1056],"Green

just for lawyers: learning your way into anti-corruption","_Our Senior Communications and External Relations Specialist Monica Guy looks back on how a curious mind paired with diverse learning opportunities and the desire to make an impact can pave the way into anti-corruption. This article is part of a series on careers in fighting financial crime and opportunities to learn and study with the Basel Institute._\n\nOne of the many things I’ve learned at the Basel Institute on Governance is that rewarding jobs in the field of countering financial crime are not just for those who woke up aged 10 and said: “Mummy, I want to be an anti-corruption prosecutor”. Or who studied business and law with the dream of becoming a compliance officer.\n\nMy own journey has been rather zig-zaggy, from caring for Stephen Hawking to managing multilingual content projects for Google and big companies in the travel and shipping industries. And a lot in between.\n\nEducation and continuous learning have been crucial in giving me the flexibility to bounce from one thing to another and hopefully make at least a tiny bit of impact on the way.\n\n### From dusty libraries to blended learning\n\nI didn’t learn much of practical use during my first degree in Classics at Cambridge. But it was a good way to learn to think, read, write and argue with clever people about the world with all its wonders and weirdness. That’s something I have to do a lot in my communications role at the Basel Institute, though thankfully not in ancient Greek.\n\nMy first master’s in interactive communications at Quinnipiac University was one of the earliest “blended learning” degree courses. I.e. hybrid classes and the (then) revolutionary idea that it’s better to learn the theory in advance and use precious class time to practise and discuss.\n\nWhat was in 2010 the cutting edge of communications now looks like stone-age cave paintings. But it did give me the basics to start building websites (early web design = animated cave paintings) and think a bit more strategically about things like audience, purpose and how communications and social media tactics can be used for good or ill. That has been of real practical value in our efforts to build the Basel Institute’s visibility and reputation over the last years.\n\n### Digging deeper (but I wish Basel STUDY had existed then)\n\nYou can’t be successful in communicating if you don’t understand what you’re talking about. So during covid times I took another master’s course, this time in sustainable development at SOAS University of London. I wanted that deeper understanding of topics like poverty, globalisation and environment that are fundamental to the work the Basel Institute does.\n\nThis degree was fully online and designed to fit alongside a full-time job. But I’ll be honest: if our [Basel STUDY](https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fstudy) courses had existed then, I’d have gladly taken them instead.\n\nBasel STUDY – that's our postgraduate programmes with the University of Basel: they are six months, hands-on, with live classes and in-person meetings, top-notch instructors and a diverse group of other participants with real-world experience. That’s a lot more fun, useful and digestible than a two-year master's degree, plus easier to combine with other modules and qualifications.\n\n### Free or low-cost learning\n\nI absolutely know that I’ve been privileged to be able to study at good universities, with grants and jobs to pay the way.\n\nBut I’ve also learned a lot through MOOCs (Massive Online Open Courses) and other free or low-cost online learning opportunities from organisations like Coursera and the University of Leiden. And of course the crème de la crème of eLearning: our own free [Basel LEARN courses](https:\u002F\u002Flearn.baselgovernance.org\u002F) on countering financial crime.\n\n### A desire to learn\n\nAll this to say that you don’t need to be a “financial crime professional” to play a part in making the world a better place.\n\nJust as you don’t need to be a “communications professional” to communicate effectively about countering corruption, fostering good governance, catalysing asset recovery and all the other difficult but worthwhile things we do here in Basel and around the world.\n\nWhat you do need is a desire to learn – from courses, peers and colleagues.\n\n### Join in\n\nMy “call to action”?
