Time magazine on Thursday revealed its list of the 100 most influential people of 2023 with Minister for Climate Change Senator Sherry Rehman included in it.

Time’s list of the most influential people is curated by its editors while individuals on the list are nominated by previous honorees, as well as the magazine’s writing staff.


“As Pakistan’s Minister for Climate Change, she gave a voice to those who had lost everything to the floods. Through impassioned speeches and tireless engagement in negotiations, she convinced many of the delegates that the blatant injustice must come to an end. COP27 ended with a historic decision—the world community agreed for the first time to establish new loss and damage funding arrangements to support the most vulnerable countries. This is a big step towards climate justice, but we still have a long way to go. We will need more people like Sherry Rehman along the way,” writes Times about Sherry.


“Omg thank you @peterfrankopan! Just saw this. Honoured to be on this list”, said Sherry on Twitter while reacting to receiving the honour.
