President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih has conferred the "President's Badge," the highest honor awarded to Girl Guides, to Fathimath Yumna Atif.

President Solih presented the badge to Yumna at a ceremony held at the President's Office on Tuesday.

President Solih congratulated Yumna on receiving the honor and admired her contributions as a member of the Girl Guide movement. He also described the movement as a crucial activity for students.

Yumna is the 14th student to receive the badge since its introduction in 1998.

Highlighting that it was the first time a girl guide representing a school outside of Malé City received the honour, the President described it as a remarkable achievement for Baa Atoll Education Centre as well.

The ceremony was attended by the Chief Guide and First Lady, Fazna Ahmed, the President of the Girl Guide Association, Dr. Aishath Ali, and the Chief Commissioner of the Girl Guide Association, Niumaath Shafeeg.
