TIME Women of the Year Gala 2026

Safeena Husain, Founder, Educate Girls, attended the TIME Women of the Year Gala 2026 in Los Angeles alongside leaders recognised for their contributions across sectors.

The event brought together voices working to advance equity, opportunity and social progress. Safeena’s participation reflected the growing global recognition of the movement for girls’ education and the work being led by communities across rural India. It was also an opportunity to spotlight the achievements and aspirations of the millions of girls whose journeys continue to drive this work.
