Marisol Alarcón

Marisol is always working for others to have the opportunities she has had, hoping that some day it will not matter where you are born to succeed in life. Doing so, she has experienced extreme realities from the slums in Latin America and the Caribbean, to the richest cities of the developed world. From Haiti to Dubai and from Ban Ki Moon to Bon Jovi she has mingled around key social agents of change around the globe with UN Habitat. Before opening Laboratoria in Chile, Marisol led international jobs in public and social sectors like the Government of Santiago, Chile’s International Cooperation Agency and in Un Techo, one of Latin American’s leading NGOs. She holds a BSc in Business Administration from Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez in Chile and a Masters Degree in Public Administration and Development Practice from Columbia University in New York.
