Former Peruvian President Francisco Sagasti: Academic Turned Politician

^{Published on 2024-12-02 18:02:19 - Tim Hastings, N@N}

He ran GRADE as Executive Director for seven years while advising the Peruvian government and working across the private sector and international institutions. Sagasti moved on to head the Strategic Planning Division of the World Bank at a pivotal point of internal organizational changes.

Francisco Sagasti, a former Peruvian president, transitioned from academia to politics, becoming a significant figure in Peru's political landscape. Initially an academic with a background in engineering and systems analysis, Sagasti's political journey began with his involvement in the Purple Party, which he co-founded. His unexpected rise to the presidency came in November 2020 following the tumultuous period after President Martín Vizcarra's impeachment. Sagasti, known for his calm demeanor and technocratic approach, took office with the mandate to restore stability and guide Peru towards new elections. His brief tenure was marked by efforts to manage the ongoing political crisis, address the economic impacts of the global health crisis, and push for reforms in governance and transparency. Despite his short time in office, Sagasti aimed to leave a legacy of democratic integrity and institutional strengthening in Peru.
