Rafaela is an 18-year-old Portuguese student. Since she was a little girl, she has been unsettled by daily situations in her life that stressed gender roles. The more she grew, the more she became aware of the gender disparities still existing in Europe and around the world and a feeling of injustice and frustration led to an eagerness to be active in the movement for gender equality. Besides that, Rafaela has also been involved in the fight against climate change and discrimination. She joined the #standforsomething campaign because she strongly believes in the importance of youth engagement in the process of decision making.
