Early life

Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo was in Mexico City.[5] Her father's Ashkenazi parents emigrated from Lithuania to Mexico City in the 1920s.[6][5] Both of her parents are scientists: her mother, Annie Pardo Cemo, is a biologist and professor emeritus of the Faculty of Sciences at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, and her father, Carlos Sheinbaum Yoselevitz, is a chemical engineer.[7][8][9]

During her time as a student at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, she was a member of the Consejo Estudiantil Universitario (University Student Council).[10][11] The group would soon help create the Party of the Democratic Revolution.[10]

She completed the work for her doctoral thesis in four years from 1991 to 1994 at the University of California, Berkeley.[12]

In 1995 she joined the faculty at National Autonomous University of Mexico Institute of Engineering.[13] In 1999 she received the prize of best UNAM young researcher in engineering and technological innovation.[14]

Political career

She was the Secretary of the Environment of Mexico City from 2000 to 2006 during Andrés Manuel López Obrador's term as mayor. She was the 7th Delegational Chief of Tlalpan from 2015 to 2017.[15][16]

In 2014, she joined López Obrador's Morena Party, which broke away from the mainstream left-wing party, the Party of the Democratic Revolution.[2][16]

In 2018, Sheinbaum was elected mayor of Mexico City.[17] She is the first woman and Jew to be elected as mayor of Mexico City.[18] During her time as mayor, she focused on policies to make the quality of water in the city better, environmental policies and to upgrade the city's transportation system.[19][20] Sheinbaum was nominated by the City Mayors Foundation for the World Mayor Prize in 2021 in North America for her handling of the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico.[21]

In 2023, she was listed as one of BBC's 100 Women.[22] She resigned as mayor in June 2023.[17]

Sheinbaum has called herself as a feminist.[23] She is a supporter of LGBT rights and created a gender-neutral policy for school uniforms when she was mayor of Mexico City.[24] In 2022, she became the first Head of Government of Mexico City to attend the city's pride march.[25]

2024 presidential campaign

Main page: 2024 Mexican general election

Sheinbaum was seen as a possible candidate for President of Mexico in the 2024 election.[26][27] In June 2023, she resigned as mayor to run for the nomination of the Morena Party for the presidential election.[17]

On September 6, 2023, she was officially chosen for the party's nomination in the 2024 election, beating former foreign secretary Marcelo Ebrard.[28] Sheinbaum has criticized the neoliberal economic policies of past presidents of Mexico, saying that they have caused the inequality in the country.[29]

Personal life

In 1986, Sheinbaum met politician Carlos Ímaz Gispert, to whom she was married from 1987 to 2016.[30] They have one daughter, Mariana.[31] She is also a step-mother to Ímaz Gispert's son from a previous marriage, Rodrigo.[32]

During the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico, Sheinbaum tested positive for COVID-19 in October 2020.[33]
