Manuella Mirella
Manuella Mirella is a prominent Brazilian student leader and the first black and northeastern woman to serve as the president of the National Union of Students (UNE). Born to a family of modest means, she rose from her roots in Paulista, near Recife, to become a significant figure in student activism and national politics. At just 28 years old, she has already made her mark by advocating for education reform and social equity, leveraging her experiences as a first-generation university student who witnessed class disparities firsthand. Her leadership at UNE is seen as a promising step towards renewing political representation in Brazil.
