Founder
Founded from lived experience and community work.
Muska was founded by Heela Yoon, an Afghan activist and communications professional with experience across peacebuilding, humanitarian response and community-led mental health work.
Before Muska, Heela founded Afghan Youth Ambassadors for Peace in Afghanistan. Through AYAPO, Heela and her team supported around 43,000 families through humanitarian aid, mental health workshops and leadership training.
“Crisis response must include emotional support, not only survival.”
