I am a former student of Professor Rodrigo Tavares and, in that condition, I have a conflict of interest with regard to him. But I have no personal or professional relations with him (fgvwiki07). (My COI with Rodrigo Tavares derives only from the fact that Im a former student of his. But I have no personal or professional relations with him and all the information contained in the article derives from reliable and accessible sources. After he became a Young Global Leader I decided to assemble information online to create the article).— Preceding unsigned comment added by Fgvwiki07 ( talk • contribs) December 29, 2017 14:09 (UTC)

Rodrigo Tavares (Lisbon, December 26, 1978) is a businessman and a scholar. He is the founder and president of the Granito Group, a holding company in the field of sustainable capitalism. [1]
Rodrigo Tavares work is focused on studying new forms of political and economic governance. He started his career by assessing the social, economic and security impacts of regional integration and supranational arrangements. [2] He also designed conflict resolution plans for global conflicts. [3] More recently, his research is centered on local governments (cities, states, provinces) and their ability to become global players. [4] He also researched capital markets and their impact on society and the environment. [5] He is one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security and paradiplomacy and has been called “one of those rare diplomatic scholars who combine the scientific rigor of an academic and the earnest experience of a foreign policy practitioner.” [6] Tavares received his Ph.D. in Peace and Development Studies in 2006 from the University of Gothenburg, School of Global Studies. His thesis “Understanding Regional Peace and Security: a New Framework for Analysis” was supervised by Professor Emeritus Björn Hettne and Associate Professor Fredrik Söderbaum. [7] He conducted postdoctoral research at Columbia University's Institute of Latin American Studies. [8] He was invited by the University of California, Berkeley (2003-2004) and Harvard University, Kennedy School of Government (2014-2015) as a senior visiting scholar. [9] He also worked at the United Nations University, the UN think-tank, in Belgium and Ethiopia. As a Research Fellow, he coordinated policy-advising work on regional integration, security, and Africa’s development. [10] He is currently an associate professor at Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV) in Brazil, [11] and an Associate Research Fellow at the United Nations University (UNU-CRIS) in Belgium. [12]
The Granito Group is a global holding company devoted to advancing sustainable capitalism. It owns three subsidiaries: the consulting firm Granito & Partners, the boutique investment bank Granito & Capital, and the Impact Economy Foundation, a non-profit think-tank. [13] The vision to establish Granito came along when Rodrigo Tavares was a Senior Research Fellow at Harvard University and he realized that the bridges between financial markets and society, or between capital and impact, could be stronger and more sophisticated. He first founded Granito & Partners, the consulting firm, in 2015. [14]
From 2011 to 2014, he served as the Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs of the São Paulo state government. In that period, the Brazilian state received 1,595 foreign delegations – including 22 heads of state and government, organized 230 missions abroad, signed 234 international agreements, managed 150 international cooperation programs and projects, organized 104 international events, and maintained relations with 116 countries. [15]. His term was also marked by the initiative to establish "formal, bilateral and direct" relations with countries such as United States, [16] Canada, United Kingdom [17] or France. [18] In 2008-2010 he was invited by the UN Secretariat to write Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s annual reports on Africa’s development, presented to the General Assembly. [19] The reports monitored the implementation of various commitments by the international community, identified challenges, and presented the way forward. [20] They have also proposed the establishment of a new permanent United Nations Monitoring Mechanism (UNMM) [21] to be spearheaded by the UN Office of the Special Advisor on Africa (OSAA).
He is a regular contributor to the World Economic Forum’s Agenda [22] and to Brazilian magazine Época [23].
In 2017 he was nominated Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. [1] In 2011, he was one of seven people selected by the Government of Québec as Young Leader for his work on foreign affairs. [24] In 2018 he was selected as StartUp Portugal Ambassador [25] by the Government of Portugal. He was tasked to represent Portuguese interests, programs, and initiatives on innovation and entrepreneurship on a global scale, with support from the Portuguese diplomatic network.
Tavares was born in Lisbon but grew up in Castelo Branco where he lived until the end of high school. [26] His family is from the Beira Interior Sul region of Portugal. [27] He is married to publisher Mirna Queiroz.

Hi, the 46,8% violation derives almost entirely by similarity in book titles, names of universities, professional positions. Things that you cant change. Two other sentences have been detected but the text in the article cites them between "". In any case, I made changes in the remaining few cases where it was actually possible to write differently. See below. Hope this new version is OK. I have compared sentence by sentence.--— Preceding unsigned comment added by Fgvwiki07 ( talk • contribs) 15:13, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

fgvwiki07: I watched a live feed of a talk he gave recently at MIT and he was introduced as "one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security and "paradiplomacy". I understand that this has not been reproduced in print, but I would suggest to at least keep the sentence: "“one of those rare diplomatic scholars who combine the scientific rigor of an academic and the earnest experience of a foreign policy practitioner". This is not blunt, vain or self-centered. The sentence points to a specific (and "rare") characteristic in his profile. Its informative. There are not a lot of people who have side-by-side and highly accomplished careers as practitioners and scholars. Its a not a stint or moonlighting, its two solid careers in paralel. The quote highlights this.
Fgvwiki07 The new version deletes the sentence "one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security and "paradiplomacy".

Because this publication was peer reviewed, it may use itself as the source.

fgvwiki07: OK, thanks Fgvwiki07 The new version follows your guidelines.
He conducted postdoctoral research at
Columbia University's Institute of Latin American Studies.
[7] He was invited by the
University of California, Berkeley (2003-2004) and
Harvard University,
Kennedy School of Government (2014-2015) as a senior visiting scholar.
[8]
fgvwiki07: his associations to Berkeley and Harvard are mentioned in various reliable bios online. They are also on their book covers. I found the association to Harvard at a Harvard website highlighting a talk he gave at the university: https://www.hks.harvard.edu/centers/taubman/news-events/past-events (just search his name). If you wish I could try to reach out to Rodrigo Tavares and bluntly ask him for a proof that he was a research fellow at Berkeley!
Fgvwiki07 the new version includes the Harvard link.
He also worked at the
United Nations University, the UN think-tank, in Belgium and Ethiopia.
fgvwiki07: this is also mentioned in several reliable bios online. One of the bios is from the United Nations University itself. So the information is legit. http://cris.unu.edu/rodrigo-tavares

Fgvwiki07 I have mantained this. If the United Nations University website says that Tavares works there and even publishes his bio online, I believe that is a good proof. I could in fact not think of anything stronger.
As a Research Fellow, he coordinated policy-advising work on regional integration, security, and Africa’s development. [9] He is currently an associate professor at Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV) in Brazil, [10] and an Associate Research Fellow at the United Nations University (UNU-CRIS) in Belgium. [11]

fgvwiki07: it would look much better, for wikipedia readers, to have publications in a segment of its own! I have actually just added 4 books, but the list of publications is much larger. I dont think it would be interesting to add ALL of them, but I would like to suggest you to main the Publications segment as more people could directly add a few more publications if they see fit.
The Granito Group is a holding company in the field of
sustainable capitalism. It owns three subsidiaries: the consulting firm Granito & Partners, the boutique investment bank Granito & Capital, and the Impact Economy Foundation, a non-profit think-tank.
[12]
fgvwiki07: here is simple. Just go to www.granito.group and you will see the subsidiaries, their names, a bunch of publications on them and some samples of the companies' work.
The vision to establish Granito came along when Rodrigo Tavares was a Senior Research Fellow at
Harvard University and he realized that the bridges between financial markets and society, or between capital and impact, could be stronger and more sophisticated.
fgvwiki07: I find this very informative. Wikipedia readers have the right to know how the Granito Group came about. And the full explanation is here, in a interview he gave to the Portuguese press. https://www.dn.pt/dinheiro/interior/sou-um-raciocinador-gosto-de-conectar-pontas-soltas-5734809.html
Fgvwiki07 OK. the new version doesnt include this information, per your guidelines.
He first founded Granito & Partners, the consulting firm, in 2015.
[13]
fgvwiki07: here you can read explicitly that Rodrigo Tavares founded Granito & Partners in 2015. https://www.consultancy.uk/news/2059/impact-business-advisory-granito-partners-launches

Fgvwiki07 OK, I deleted this part per your guidelines.
From 2011 to 2014, he served as the Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs of the
São Paulo state government.
fgvwiki07: there are endless references to his work as Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs. But here you can find a publication available in the state government official website. www.saopauloglobal.sp.gov.br/relacoes_inter/publica/Portifolio_AEAI-2011-2015_ingles.pdf. Please see page 5.
Fgvwiki07 OK, understood. The new version has a slightly different text. Just "Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs" is the official title and that cannot be changed.
In that period, the Brazilian state received 1,595 foreign delegations – including 22 heads of state and government, organized 230 missions abroad, signed 234 international agreements, managed 150 international cooperation programs and projects, organized 104 international events, and maintained relations with 116 countries.
[14]
fgvwiki07: www.saopauloglobal.sp.gov.br/relacoes_inter/publica/Portifolio_AEAI-2011-2015_ingles.pdf. Please see pages 67, 49, 63.
Fgvwiki07 Im truly sorry, but that is not correct. The publication www.saopauloglobal.sp.gov.br/relacoes_inter/publica/Portifolio_AEAI-2011-2015_ingles.pdf is an official review of the foreign affairs work of the state government of sao paulo between 2011 and 2014. On page 5, you can see Rodrigo as the leader of that work.
His term was also marked by the initiative to establish "formal, bilateral and direct" relations with countries such as
United States,
[15]
Canada,
United Kingdom
[16] or and
France.
[17]
fgvwiki07: This information is contained in his book Paradiplomacy, pages 93, 94, 95. Shall I fotograph the pages and send them to you? Agreements with United States, Canada, UK and France have been signed and executed.
Fgvwiki07 I have added the book in the references to make it clear.
He was selected by the UN Secretariat to write Secretary-General
Ban Ki-moon’s reports on Africa’s development (2008-2010).
[18] Presented to the General Assembly, they (those reports) monitored the implementation of various commitments by the international community, identified challenges, and presented the way forward.
[19]
fgvwiki07: The article says explicity that he wrote UN Secretary General reports
Fgvwiki07 I have deleted this part.
, so the documents are naturally signed by the UNSG, not by him. He would be impeded from signining the documents. But there are a few ways of demonstrating that the information is legit: 1. its stated on a UN website. http://cris.unu.edu/rodrigo-tavares. Its a UN source stating that he wrote the reports. 2. In this interview, the interviewer asked Rodrigo about his role as Ban Ki Moon report writer: http://expresso.sapo.pt/economia/2017-04-22-Rodrigo-Tavares-Tive-a-sorte-de-ter-estado-rodeado-de-pessoas-exemplares. 3- I can bluntly reach out to Rodrigo and ask for a proof of this.
They have also proposed the establishment of a new permanent United Nations Monitoring Mechanism (UNMM) to be spearheaded by the UN Office of the Special Advisor on Africa (OSAA). [20]
He writes regularly to the World Economic Forum’s Agenda [21] and to Brazilian newsmagazine Época. [22]
In 2017 he was nominated
Young Global Leader by the
World Economic Forum.
[23]
In 2011, he was nominated Young Leader by the Government of
Québec for his work on foreign affairs.
[24]
fgvwiki07: the info is in various bios of Rodrigo online. The program is this one: http://www.missionleadership.ca/index.php?sec=40. If you believe the info in the wikipedia article is too close from Rodrigo's bios online, I suggest the following sentence: "In 2011, he was selected as Young Leader (Jeune Leader) by the Ministry of International Relations of Québec"
Fgvwiki07 it was implemented wrongly, Im afraid. The text repeats itself (2 mentions to the same award) and deletes the WEF reference. I have corrected this.
Tavares was born in
Lisbon but grew up in
Castelo Branco where he lived until the end of high school.
[25] His family is from the
Beira Interior Sul region of Portugal.
[26] He is married to publisher
Mirna Queiroz.
fgvwiki07: oh goddess, it was accessible when I first read it. But you can still read the sentence underneath his picture stating that he lived in Castelo Branco until the end of high school. And in this interview he says "Granito é a rocha mais comum na região de onde eu sou oriundo em Portugal, que é a região da Beira Baixa", which can be translated as "Granite is the most common rock in the region where Im from in Portugal, the Beira Baixa region". FYI, Beira Baixa is an old term, the new updated name for the region is Beira Interior Sul. https://www.dn.pt/dinheiro/interior/sou-um-raciocinador-gosto-de-conectar-pontas-soltas-5734809.html
The information on his wife I found in his and her facebook pages. Mirna Queiroz is a public figure in Brazil and has a wikipedia page in Portuguese.
Fgvwiki07 I have deleted the section on this private life
Fgvwiki07 I hope the version I posted on Talk pages covers all your issues. I understand that you are being formidably demanding as Im a former student and I have a COI status. I have read other wiki bios of other Young Global Leaders and the level of demand is much, much lower (you would have vetoed most of the content!!:)_), but Im working very hard to attend all your demands. If you agree with the version on talk pages - which is far from my original version but I believe attends 100% of the issues raised - could you please post it online?
Fgvwiki07 A final word to say that it is still not clear for me why is it possible that an infinite and heavy due diligence is carried out on all I write, if at the end it is simply possible to have someone else coming in and writing false statements with no references, no backing, no sources (such as saying he is a diplomat or a journalist). If you could help the article be protected against false statements, I would appreciate! —Preceding undated comment added 10:52, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

fgvwiki07: I truly appreciate your help in editing the article. Please let me know if we are ready to get it online. I believe your colleague Jytdog' comments have also been addressed in the course of our recent edits.
I have just noticed that the article was edited today by someone else stating that Rodrigo Tavares is a journalist! I have painfully spent many many hours getting the most precise information on Rodrigo Tavares to wikipedia adminitrators. How is it possible that someone just pops in and writes that he is a journalist?! It also gives a lot of importance to a 2008 article that, I believe, doesnt really weight much in his list of publications! How could we be protected against similar false contributions??
fgvwiki07: I believe several points that have been aproved are not yet in the document and a handful of others have been inserted but are utterly incorrect, if I may be frank. This latest version says he is a diplomat and that he has worked in several media outlets. May I ask you where does this information come from? Where are the sources? Ill work on a revised version, including all approved points and addressing your latest issues and submit it to you in the coming hours. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fgvwiki07 ( talk • contribs) 23:13, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
