Tatyana Doncheva Toteva (Bulgarian: Татяна Дончева Тотева) (born 28 January 1960 in Tryavna) is a Bulgarian politician from the PP "Movement 21" (Bulgarian: ПП "Движение 21"), of which she is the chairperson. She has been a member of three National Parliaments.
Receiving an education in the field of legal studies (graduating from the juridical faculty of Sofia University), Doncheva has worked as a jurist, lawyer and prosecutor in Sofia. She is also a member of the Arbitration Commission of the Bulgarian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation. In 2005, she was a candidate (backed by BSP and a number of other parties) to become mayor of the capital city, losing out to Boyko Borisov in the second decisive electoral round of the municipal elections. After being unable to stake a strong enough claim for the leadership position of BSP at the party congress in October 2009, Doncheva founded the PP "Movement 21" in April 2010, which does not constitute a political party, but represents the activism of citizens. She speaks English and Russian in addition to her native Bulgarian.
