Masooma Makes Pakistan and UAE Proud at UN Bangkok

News Desk 

Bangkok: Masooma Ajaz, a Pakistan-born career mentor and humanitarian based in the United Arab Emirates, has added a remarkable new chapter to her journey of service.

In a moving ceremony at the United Nations Conference Centre in Bangkok, she was awarded the Global Peace Award—an international recognition of her relentless efforts to empower job seekers and foster community development across borders.

The award was conferred during the International Diplomat Conference, organized by the Voice for Rights International Organization, which honours individuals working to promote peace, human rights, and development globally. For Masooma, it was more than just a personal honour—it was a validation of a life spent uplifting others.

“I’m deeply honoured and humbled,” she said during her acceptance speech. “This award is not just for me; it belongs to every individual I’ve supported on their career path, and to the countries—especially the UAE—that gave me the platform to serve.”

From helping fresh graduates break into competitive job markets to mentoring seasoned professionals through career transitions, Masooma has quietly built a legacy of service.

Based in the UAE for over a decade, she has become a beacon of hope for thousands of expatriates navigating employment challenges in a foreign land. Her free career mentoring sessions—offered online and in person—blend practical guidance with emotional support, empowering people to believe in their own potential.

Her work resonates deeply with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly those related to decent work, reduced inequalities, and inclusive economic growth.

But for Masooma, the work has always been personal. “I know what it means to feel lost and unsupported in your professional journey,” she says. “That’s why I made it my mission to ensure others don’t walk alone.”

The Voice for Rights International Organization praised her commitment to peacebuilding and grassroots change, calling her “a model of service and leadership.” The Global Peace Award is the latest in a string of accolades Masooma has received, but she calls it her most meaningful recognition yet.

Back home in Pakistan and across the UAE, news of her achievement has been met with pride and celebration. For many, Masooma Ajaz is more than a mentor—she’s a symbol of resilience, empathy, and cross-cultural impact.

As she continues to inspire others through her voice, values, and voluntary service, Masooma Ajaz stands as a powerful reminder that change begins with compassion—and that one person can indeed make a world of difference.
