Daniela Onyewuenyi MSYP

MSYP for Paisley

she/her

Hello, I am Dani! I am 18 years old and I currently study Scots Law with Spanish at the University of Dundee. During my free time I love to play rugby and listening to music.

I wanted to become an MSYP due to my passion about youth participation in politics. Being part of Renfrewshire Youth Voice exposed me to the divide between young people and decision makers so I sought to bridge that gap at a national level, putting at the fore front the voices of seldom heard groups.

Outside of being a trustee for SYP, I am also a trustee for my local youth charity, Renfrewshire Youth Voice.

Three important issues I’m passionate about: Anti-racism, intersectionality and political literacy.

Fun fact: I have been a Twenty One Pilots fan for a decade now!
