Muhammad Measm, a 15-year-old from Pakistan, is a dedicated advocate for gender equality, child protection, inclusive education, and youth participation. Witnessing the inequalities faced by girls and transgender individuals, he founded StudySphere, a hub providing affordable educational resources to underprivileged students, and serves as Deputy Vice President of Rise and Restore, Pakistan’s first government-registered NGO, championing marginalized communities. Measm organizes workshops, awareness campaigns, and mentorship programs to educate communities on children’s rights and empower young people to actively participate in societal change.

His changemaking journey is supported by his parents, mentors, schools, and NGOs, including BSO-AZAD, Rise and Restore, and collaborations with human rights activists like Bebo Baloch. Through these partnerships, Measm has provided free education to over 100 village students, supported more than 250 transgender individuals, and raised substantial funds for his initiatives. His work combines online platforms and offline engagement, creating inclusive spaces where children can learn, grow, and contribute to building a more just and equitable society.
