Guest Author

Miguel Moctezuma is the Coordinator of the Global Security Programme at the University of Oxford and is a project co-lead for the FOUND project, which explores technologies for locating clandestine graves in Jalisco, Mexico. Within the FOUND project, Miguel collects testimonies from mothers’ search groups, which are subsequently analysed and tested at the project’s two experimental sites. The insights derived from these testimonies have been integrated into the Jalisco Search Protocol.

He has recently contributed to the book ‘Interpreting Nature to Locate Those We Are Missing’ (Interpretar la Naturaleza para Encontrar a Quienes nos Faltan), which presents the findings of FOUND on the application of biological, physical, and earth sciences in the detection of clandestine graves.

Miguel received a Master of Public Policy form the University of Oxford, a Master in Government and Public Affairs from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), and a BA in Economics from the Autonomous University of Zacatecas. He is on LinkedIn.
