Gabriela Bucher
System changer
Executive Director of Oxfam International
“There’s no substitute for the structural shift needed to tackle inequality and the climate crisis.”
Gabriela Bucher grew up in Colombia and dedicated her career to fostering the power of collaboration to achieve equality. A champion for social justice, feminist leadership and human rights, she worked alongside children and communities affected by Colombia’s decades-long armed conflict and contributed to peacebuilding and youth active citizenship, influencing the country’s approach to restorative justice for children. Before being appointed Executive Director of Oxfam International, Gabriela worked as Chief Operating Officer of Plan International and led Fundación Plan Colombia.
Gabriela Bucher will join us live as a remote guest and will interact with the festival audience.
