Rahildaris Marchena is a talented Venezuelan animator and digital artist who has transformed her personal journey as a former refugee in Mexico into a powerful advocacy platform. Now based in Spain, she completed her studies in Digital Animation as a DAFI Scholar. Her commitment to social justice has led her to engage in various capacity-building initiatives, including leadership courses with UNHCR and the RSC Pathways program at the University of Oxford.

Rahil’s work focuses on highlighting the challenges faced by refugees and advocating for their equal rights, particularly in education. Through her illustrative projects, she brings refugee stories to life, providing a safe outlet for refugees to share their experiences and express themselves.

In her role within the Global Refugee Youth Network (GRYN), Rahil leads the communications department, empowering young refugees and facilitating community initiatives through funding and capacity-building resources. As a global leader of the Tertiary Refugee Student Network (TRSN), she champions the inclusion of refugee youth in higher education, firmly believing that education is a fundamental right, not a privilege. Her dedication is centered on amplifying the voices of young refugees and ensuring their stories are heard and valued.
