Ariosto S. Gonzales,
IDP
Class
of 2007 (IMF-JISPA)
Currently, I am working for the Department of Finance, Republic
of the Philippines, as Senior Economist at the Domestic Finance
Group. As a Senior Economist, I have active and continuous
involvement in the conduct of major/in-depth research studies
and position papers in public finance and economic issues and
prop
osals, formulation of recommendations on
appropriate policies in public finance, and evaluation of
legislative and economic policy proposals.
The Japan-International
Monetary Fund (IMF) Scholarship Program for Asia (JISPA)
provided me the opportunity to further enhance my knowledge and
expertise in the fields of public finance, international and
development economics. It also enabled me to improve my
background in the area of health economics, project cycle
management, WTO and FTA, governance structure and economic
development, among others. I firmly believe that the knowledge
and experience I have gained from my post-graduate studies in
IUJ, through the JISPA support, have made me better equipped
with tools necessary for such a demanding profession.
