Our Co-founder's Story
Nila Ibrahimi is a 17-year-old Afghan activist dedicated to advocating for women's rights. At just 13, she challenged a local ban preventing schoolgirls over the age of 12 from singing in public, as part of the impactful "IAmMySong" campaign. This initiative successfully led to the reversal of the ban by Kabul’s education directorate. Nila has since brought her message to global audiences, speaking at significant events like the Geneva Summit for Human Rights and Democracy in 2023 and the TED Conference in Vancouver in 2024. Her efforts have been recognized internationally, including a feature in CNN’s ‘As Equal’ series in 2024.
