Fernando Haddad (Brazilian Portuguese pronunciation: [feʁˈnɐ̃du aˈdadʒi]; born 25 January 1963) is a Brazilian scholar, lawyer and politician who has served as the Brazilian Minister of Finance since 1 January 2023.[1] He was previously the mayor of São Paulo from 2013 to 2017 and the Brazilian minister of education from 2005 to 2012.
Haddad is a professor of political science at the University of São Paulo (USP), from which he graduated with a bachelor's degree in law, a master's degree in economics and a doctorate in philosophy.[2] He also worked as an investment analyst at Unibanco. Between 2001 and 2003, he served as the Undersecretary of Finance and Economic Development for São Paulo, during Marta Suplicy's administration.[3]
He also held a position within the Ministry of Planning during the Lula government, under the administration of Guido Mantega (2003-2004), during which time he authored the bill that established public-private partnerships (PPPs) in Brazil.[4]
He was appointed the Minister of Education in July 2005 by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and held the position until January 2012. During his tenure as minister, significant educational initiatives were introduced, including the Institutional Teaching Initiation Scholarship Programme (PIBID) and the Unified Selection System (SiSU). Additionally, the Open University of Brazil and the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology were established. Notably, he played a key role in implementing the University for All Programme (ProUni) and spearheading the reformulation and expansion of the Higher Education Student Financing Fund (FIES) along with the Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio.
In 2012, he achieved the position of mayor in the municipality of São Paulo through a victory over the candidate from the Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB), José Serra, in the second round of elections.[5]
He was the Workers' Party candidate for President of Brazil in the 2018 election, replacing former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, whose candidacy was barred by the Superior Electoral Court under the Clean Slate law.[6] Haddad faced far-right candidate Jair Bolsonaro in the run-off of the election,[7] and lost the election with 44.87% of the votes against Bolsonaro's 55.13%.[8]
Haddad was minister of education from 2005 to 2012 in the cabinets of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Dilma Rousseff.[9]
