Aleksandra Gajewska
Secretary of State
A resident of Warsaw, mother of Alex, local government activist, politician, MP for the 10th term Sejm.
She was born and raised in Warsaw. In the capital, she learnt and shaped the values that guide her. Nearly ten years ago, she became the youngest councillor in the history of the capital. As a councillor, she actively supported the fight for clean air, creating new places in crèches and kindergartens and planning the expansion of road infrastructure and public transport.
Her commitment and close contact with the inhabitants led to her gaining record support nationally in the last local elections, with nearly 33,000 people casting their vote for her. She also co-created the victorious election campaign of the current Mayor of the City of Warsaw, Rafał Trzaskowski, being his spokesperson.
2019 was a special year for me, both personally and professionally. In June, I gave birth to Aleksander, and just a week later, I was elected vice-president of the Warsaw City Council. It was also in autumn 2019, from the last place on the list, that I was elected as an MP for the 9th term Sejm.
She wants to use her many years of local government experience to make Poland modern, green and friendly to its residents and inhabitants. She breaks the stereotype that politics wears a tie; she believes that an influential politician can be a young, courageous person using innovative solutions.
