Alliyah Lusuegro is the Outreach Coordinator for the National Priorities Project, serving as project manager for growing collaborations with immigrant rights organizations and movements against climate change. A first-generation immigrant, Alliyah has roots in the Philippines and now calls Washington, DC home. Her interest in anti-militarism comes from organizing for justice, healing, and sovereignty for traditionally disenfranchised communities.

Before joining IPS in 2022, Alliyah was a RAY Fellow and Climate-Ready Fisheries Specialist at Ocean Conservancy and worked on policy, advocacy, and storytelling. Alliyah graduated from Swarthmore College as a QuestBridge National Match Scholar with a B.A. in Environmental Studies and a double minor in Biology and Gender and Sexuality Studies. She is an alum of the Rethink Outside Fellowship and the Doris Duke Conservation Scholars Program at the University of Michigan.
