Her journey in education began in her early teens, when she started teaching girls and children in Dasht, Balochistan while still attending school herself. She also managed two local libraries, encouraging young women in her community to read, learn, and pursue education.

Aisha’s activism expanded to the global stage when she joined the COP26 Climate Conference in Glasgow as a delegate representing MAPA (Most Affected People and Areas). She has since participated in multiple international panels, including UN discussions on climate change, women’s health, water, and sanitation, with a focus on how environmental crises impact women in vulnerable regions.

In the UK, Aisha has contributed to English for Action (EFA) in Wembley, helping refugees learn English and supporting them through the university scholarship and application process.
