2026 Fellow
Victoria Rodríguez Villarreal is a graduate student in the BS/MPH program with a concentration in Environmental and Occupational Health at Drexel University’s Dornsife School of Public Health. Originally from Monterrey, Mexico, she is an intersectional ecofeminist activist and public health advocate committed to advancing climate justice through research, public policy advocacy, and community-centered action.
Victoria has worked with organizations such as the Academy of Natural Sciences and World Vision Eswatini, contributing to initiatives at the intersection of environmental health, climate resilience, and social equity. She currently serves as the Advocacy and Mexican Delegation Coordinator for Latinas por el Clima, where she supports projects that center frontline communities, promote gender equity, and uplift local knowledge systems, such as the National Ecofeminist Camps. She is also a member of the Young People’s Action Team (YPAT), third cohort, of Generation Unlimited.
Her work focuses on the interconnections between climate change, gender equity, and environmental justice, and is grounded in a decolonial epistemology that seeks to reimagine pathways toward a just transition. Her interests include climate and health equity, community science, and reparative policy design.
