R Alom Shah is a dedicated Rohingya youth leader, community organizer, and human rights defender who focuses on advancing education and youth empowerment.

As Director General of the Rohingya Student Union, he guides our student-led networks, expands educational access, and ensures our community's voice is clearly heard on regional and global platforms.
