Sabrina Battilana

Sabrina Battilana is an international relations and partnerships professional with over ten years of experience engaging governments, multilateral institutions, and civil society organizations across Latin America and globally. Based in Buenos Aires, she holds a Master in International Affairs with a specialization in International Development, a postgraduate degree in Public Policy Management, and a Bachelor's in Communication Sciences, complemented by executive training at Georgetown University and Climate Reality Project. Her career has taken her across Accenture Development Partnerships, the World Economic Forum's Centre for Urban Transformation, Transparency International Chapter in Argentina, and the Buenos Aires City Government, where she has built a track record in government relations, and country engagement strategies across frameworks including the Escazú Agreement, G20, and UN-Habitat.

 

She also served as Regional Community Champion for the Global Shapers Community in four countries in the Southern Cone (Argentina, Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay). At YNA, Sabrina leads country relations across the three programme tracks, working to build and sustain the government partnerships that bring young negotiators into the rooms where it matters. She believes that meaningful youth participation in multilateral processes depends not on goodwill alone, but on the institutional trust that makes it possible.
