David Mayoral

David Mayoral is the youngest member of Mexico’s National Council for the 2030 Agenda. As Yucatán’s ambassador to the United Nations and a youth delegate to the G20, he has promoted an agenda focused on anti-racism and reducing inequality, building on his experience as a Young Peacebuilder in the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations.

His social entrepreneurship initiative, “AdaLead”, aims to reduce lethal violence against journalists and environmental activists by leveraging crowdsourcing, AI-driven recognition of violent patterns, and peacebuilding strategies. His expertise in human rights and civic engagement has also led him to serve as a State Coordinator of Education in Yucatán within the Global Network of Young Politicians, where he oversees a portfolio of projects aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In his role as Youth and Transformative Education Lead at Ashoka Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean, he enables more people to become changemakers through quality education and community building from an early age. Additionally, he has designed curricula on Educational Community Building and Peace Practices with a Gender Perspective at Universidad Modelo, where he worked as a professor of linguistics, semiotics, and Hispanic American culture.

David is also a BeVisioneers Fellow (Mercedes-Benz & The DO School) for Eco-preneurs, a recipient of the Global Leadership Challenge (Oxford University) second-place award, and has been recognized in the Young Anti-Racist Leadership Project (Racismo MX, The Canada Fund for Local Initiatives, Nike Mexico).

His academic background includes an MA in Educational Entrepreneurship from Tecnológico de Monterrey, an MA in Educational Innovation from Universidad Anáhuac Sur, and various specialized certifications in peace education, social innovation, and sustainable development from institutions such as the University of Cambridge, UNESCO, and the University of Oxford.
