UNICEF Pakistan appoints Saba Qamar as its first National Ambassador for Child Rights.

UNICEF Pakistan has appointed actress Saba Qamar as its first National Ambassador for Child Rights, coinciding with the International Day of the Girl Child. Qamar will advocate for children's rights and address issues like child marriage, mental health, education, gender equality, and child poverty. With 19 million child brides in Pakistan, urgent action is needed to combat this issue, as UNICEF warns it may take decades to eliminate child marriage without intervention.
