Damian Hieronymus Johannes Freiherr von Boeselager[1] (born 8 March 1988)[2] is a German business consultant, journalist and politician of Volt Europa.

His grandfather Philipp von Boeselager was a Wehrmacht field officer in Nazi Germany and a member of the 20 July Plot (attempt to assassinate Hitler).

His father is the banker Georg Freiherr von Boeselager and his mother Huberta, née Thiel.

Damian Freiherr von Boeselager is Catholic and the youngest of four children, born in Frankfurt am Main.

From 2008 to 2011, he studied Philosophy and Economics at the University of Bayreuth and Public Administration at the Hertie School of Governance in Berlin from 2016 to 2017.

[3] In 2012, Boeselager initiated a journalistic travel project, Euroskop, with Bernhard Clemm and Jan Stöckmann, which took him to 20 European capitals.

The aim of the project was to discuss the future of the continent with young people in Europe and, alongside this, to interview journalists, academics, politicians and activists.

[6] In 2017, Boeselager together with Andrea Venzon from Italy and Colombe Cahen-Salvador from France founded the political party Volt Europa.

[20] On 16 September 2023, Boeselager was re-elected as the top candidate for the 2024 European Parliament election at the party's convention in Erfurt.

The top quartet for the European election also includes Nela Riehl, Kai Tegethoff and business consultant colleague Rebekka Müller.

[24][25] As representative of the Green Group, Boeselager took part in the negotiations on the EU electoral law reform and in bringing the legislation through the Parliament.

In his opinion, the European Central Bank could have a special function here, in that every citizen would have a "digital euro note that could be transferred".

If the citizens did not act promptly, there could be financial losses and disadvantages in terms of technological progress because up to 50 million skilled workers would be lost over the next 30 years.
