Early life and education

Political career
Pop has been a member of the Green party since 1997. In the 2001 state elections, she was elected into the Abgeordnetenhaus of Berlin.[4] In parliament, she first served as the Green Party’s parliamentary group on youth policies. From 2009, she led the parliamentary group alongside Volker Ratzmann.
