Hania Aamir, known best for her strong acting performances and her relatable content on social media, has added another feather in her cap as the new National Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women, the organisation announced on Instagram.

In their post, UN Women’s Pakistan office said Aamir will “use her platform to raise awareness, inspire action, and amplify the voices of women and girls across Pakistan.” Together with the actress, the organisation hopes to work towards a future where “every woman and girl can realise her full potential – free from violence, discrimination, and inequality”.

She joins a prestigious list of goodwill ambassadors, with three others holding the title from South Asia – activist Muniba Mazari, Indian actor Farhan Akhtar and Indian tennis pro Sania Mirza. Internationally, goodwill ambassadors for UN Women include Emma Watson, Nicole Kidman and Anne Hathaway.

Aamir is the second Pakistani to be given the ambassador title by UN Women after Mazari was appointed in 2015. National ambassadors for other United Nations (UN) agencies in Pakistan include Fawad Khan for the UN Development Programme, Mahira Khan for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Shehzad Roy for the UN Office on Drugs and Crime and Saba Qamar for the UN agency for children, Unicef.
