Sara Funaro (born 12 May 1976) is an Italian politician, Mayor of Florence since 26 June 2024 and is both the first woman and first Jewish person to hold this office[1].

Biography

[edit]

Born in 1976, Funaro is the granddaughter of Piero Bargellini, mayor of Florence during the 1966 flood of the Arno.[2]

She obtained a degree in clinical psychology at the University of Florence and a specialization in phenomenological psychotherapy at the University of Urbino and a master's degree in ethnopsychiatry at the Center Devereux in Paris.

A member of the Democratic Party, Funaro has been councilor for health, reception and equal opportunities from 2014 to 2024 under the mayorship of Dario Nardella.[3]

Mayor of Florence

[edit]

In the 2024 local elections, Funaro became the centre-left candidate for the office of Mayor of Florence, supported by the Democratic Party, the Greens and Left Alliance, More Europe and Action. She was elected in the run-off against the former director of the Uffizi Gallery Eike Schmidt, supported by the centre-right coalition, thus becoming the first woman to lead the city of Florence.[4]
