Encyclopedic overview

Camila Antonia Amaranta Vallejo Dowling ( Spanish: [kaˈmila anˈtonja amaˈɾanta βaˈʝexo ˈðawlin]; born 28 April 1988) is a Chilean geographer, politician, and former student leader. A prominent member of the Communist Party of Chile, she served as the Minister General Secretariat of Government under President Gabriel Boric, a role held from March 2022 to March 2026. She previously served as a member of the Chamber of Deputies for District 26 (2014–2018) and later District 12 (2018–2022).

Vallejo rose to national prominence as a leading figure in the 2011 student protests, during which she served as president of the University of Chile Student Federation (FECh) and spokesperson for the Confederation of Chilean Students (Confech). Her role in the protests earned her international recognition, with The New York Times Magazine dubbing her "the world's most glamorous revolutionary". She is widely regarded as one of the most influential communist figures in 21st-century Chile and is often seen as the symbolic successor to the late communist leader Gladys Marín.
