Muqadas participated in various training programs and certifications, which helped her grow both personally and professionally. Her journey took a transformative turn when she discovered the Pakistan Youth Leadership Initiative (PYLI) through the Sewa Development Trust. She eagerly joined the four-day Youth Leadership training sessions, which offered young individuals the chance to lead climate action. For Muqadas, this was the perfect opportunity to make a meaningful impact in her community. Motivated by the training, Muqadas and her group members developed a proposal for a solid waste management project. They identified a critical issue in Murad Wahan Muhalla, where poor waste management was causing serious challenges. The area was plagued by accumulating trash due to inadequate infrastructure and limited aware-ness. This led to pollution, health risks like respiratory and waterborne diseases, and an overall decline in the quality of life for residents. <\/p>\n

With a bachelor\u2019s degree in environmental science from the University of Punjab, she is determined to use her knowledge to create a sustainable future. Zomehr noticed that a local area near a school, clinic, and residential houses was suffering from piles of waste. Neglected by authorities despite repeated complaints, the waste created problems for residents, including difficulty in transportation, limited access to schools, bad smells, and health risks from diseases. The unhealthy environment urgently needed attention. Motivated to make a difference, Zomehr and her team organized a cleaning drives through their YLA project. They focused on an area spanning around one kanal, removing six truckloads of waste. The cleanup made the surroundings cleaner and safer for the community, especially for children and families. <\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBushra Waqas Khan (b. 1986) graduated <\/span>summa cum laude<\/span><\/i> from the National College of Arts, Lahore (2008) with a Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Fine Arts, specializing in Printmaking. In her current practice, Khan reimagines the intricate designs of a state document better known as an Affidavit or Oath Paper. These papers, often associated with legal ownership and rights, particularly of men, symbolize systemic exclusion and the perpetuation of patriarchal norms. By manipulating and strategically repeating these patterns, she creates visually elaborate and conceptually charged works.<\/span>\r\n\r\nKhan\u2019s practice is multidisciplinary, encompassing both 2D and 3D forms. Her work ranges from intricate paper-based compositions to sculptural installations and meticulously crafted textile pieces. These creations highlight the interplay between printmaking techniques and the materiality of textiles, merging the traditional and the contemporary. Through this approach, she critiques the lingering impact of colonization in South Asia, exploring themes of identity, power, and societal fragmentation.<\/span>\r\n\r\nBy pushing the boundaries of form and medium, Khan transforms symbols of state control into powerful expressions of resistance, creating a dialogue that challenges historical and cultural hierarchies.<\/span> <\/p>\n
