Season 6, Episode 11. Johanna Hill, Deputy Director General at the WTO.
DDG Johanna Hill has been involved with the WTO since its inception and has worked directly with it at various points in her career. Her career in multilateral and bilateral affairs is long, and she has also worked in the private sector.
We had an insightful conversation covering a wide range of topics, from her early years in El Salvador to her commitment to education, which led her to Tufts University and Columbia University.
She then worked for El Salvador’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Economy, where she was appointed as Vice Minister of Economy.
This solid and long experience has brought her to the WTO, where she now serves as DDG.
It was a pleasure talking to her and hearing more about her story and thoughts on the Multilateral Trade System.
I am confident you will enjoy this conversation!
