Camila Antonia Amaranta Vallejo Dowling (Spanish: [kaˈmila anˈtonja amaˈɾanta βaˈʝexo ˈðawlin]; born 28 April 1988) is a Chilean politician and former student leader, currently serving as the Minister General Secretariat of Government since 11 March 2022.

There, she started forming ties with leftist students and became involved in politics, which led her to join the Chilean Communist Youth the following year.

[7] Vallejo was counselor of FECh in 2008, and was chosen as its president in November 2010, becoming only the second woman to hold this post in the 105-year history of the student union.

Despite not being the president of the FECh any longer, Vallejo continued to appear consistently in the media to defend the student movement and the rights of workers.

[11] Although in January 2012 Vallejo had stated that she would "never be willing to campaign" in favor of Michelle Bachelet,[12] she changed her position after the Communist Party decided to offer its support to Socialist presidential pre-candidate.

In 2016 she called Israel "a terrorist State that seeks the displacement and extermination of Palestinians", and that the "Palestinian–Israeli conflict does not constitute a war, but a genocide".

I emphatically condemn ... the impunity of a Zionist project that violates all international law, that seeks to oppress and exterminate a brother nation".

She campaigned in favor of the "apruebo" option in the 2022 referendum to amend the Chilean constitution with a more progressive alternative; these efforts fell short, however, as the proposal was rejected by a margin of 62% to 38%.

[25] Vallejo has been labeled by the media as the most important and influential Communist personality of the 21st century in Chile, and also as the symbolic successor of Gladys Marín.

Historian Gabriel Salazar sparked controversy by stating in an interview with newspaper El Mercurio de Calama that Vallejo should quit the Communist Party if she was "intelligent enough".

[35] In April 2013, Vallejo announced she was expecting her first child with Julio Sarmiento, a leader of the Communist Youth of Chile and her partner since September 2011.
