Diana-Anda Buzoianu was born on 16 May 1994 in Brașov and is a Romanian politician and lawyer. She studied law at the University of Bucharest, graduating in 2017, and was admitted to the Bucharest Bar that same year. A member of the Save Romania Union (USR), she was first elected to the Chamber of Deputies in December 2020, where she served as President of the Environment and Ecological Balance Committee and focused on environmental protection, digitalisation, and institutional reform.

She was appointed Minister of Environment, Waters and Forests on 23 June 2025, becoming one of only two women in the cabinet led by Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan. Among her stated priorities are increasing forested areas, combating desertification, responsible management of the brown bear population, and meeting Romania's environmental targets under the EU's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR). She has also pushed for governance reform at Romsilva, Romania's state forestry agency — a reorganization that was approved by the government in March 2026.
