Pakistani actress Hania Aamir has been officially named the National Goodwill Ambassador by UN Women Pakistan, marking a significant move in the organization's ongoing mission to advance gender equality and women's empowerment in the country. Her appointment is intended to bring more youth into the conversation and broaden the impact of programs focused on empowering women socially and economically, as well as addressing gender-based violence. Through her influential presence, particularly among younger audiences, Hania is expected to raise awareness and inspire meaningful action on issues affecting women and girls across Pakistan. UN Women emphasized that her role will be instrumental in amplifying the voices of women and advocating for a future free from violence, discrimination, and inequality.
