Health Services Academy | Islamabad, Pakistan | Advancing SDG 3, SDG 5 & UNAI 3
" I am passionate about creating lasting change where health, environment, and equity meet. Through my work on Water Quality under a Changing Climate and my roles with WHO and community health organizations, I have seen the transformative power of mentorship, resources, and evidence-driven action. I am where I am today because people believed in my potential. Now, I aim to be that person for others — empowering individuals, especially young girls, to overcome barriers, embrace their potential, and shape healthier, more resilient communities "
Millennium Fellowship Project: The SDGs Force: From Ideas To Impact
The SDG Force: From Ideas to Impact is a multi-phase community initiative designed to transform innovative ideas into meaningful action. The project focused on key Sustainable Development Goals—primarily SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being) and SDG 5 (Gender Equality). In the first phase, we collaborated with the Federal Directorate of Immunization to promote the national HPV vaccination campaign. The second phase addressed maternal and child health by raising awareness about antenatal care, safe delivery, and early childhood well-being. In the third phase, we worked on improving child nutrition through education on healthy feeding practices and growth monitoring. In the final phase, we aim to promote child protection awareness, focusing on safety, rights, and prevention of abuse. Together, these phases reflect our commitment to improving community health, empowering women and children, and contributing to long-term sustainable development.
