ISLAMABAD: In a groundbreaking collaboration between Pathfinder International, 120 Under 40, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and the PINK center, a new superhero named Maha emerges. Maha is an animated transgender superhero SRHR character that represents inclusivity, diversity, and empowerment.
In her inaugural video installment, Maha fearlessly champions the cause of SRHR within the transgender community, focusing particularly on the plight of transgender sex workers. Through riveting narratives, It addresses critical issues such as access to contraceptives, promoting safe sex practices, and combating gender-based violence (GBV) with a flair that is both awe-inspiring and thought-provoking.
The creators behind Maha’s saga invite strategic partnerships to amplify her impact and propel her message to every corner of the globe. Maha’s mission extends beyond entertainment – it’s a call to action, a catalyst for meaningful change in the fight for SRHR and justice.
“The world is ready for Maha,” declares the visionary minds behind her creation. “Her story transcends fiction, igniting conversations and paving the way for a future where SRHR is not just a dream but a reality for all.”
“Maha’s story isn’t just about superheroes; it’s about rewriting the script of SRHR advocacy for generations to come”, said Sarim a transgender rights activist while talking to The Dayspring.
