Amin Marefat was a 16-year-old youth from Oshnavieh who became one of the young victims of the nationwide protests in Iran. On September 21, 2022, during the early days of the "Woman, Life, Freedom" movement, his life was cut short when he was shot in the head by government security forces in his hometown. Beyond the tragedy of his death, Amin is remembered for his vibrant spirit and his passion for music. Archival media and memorial tributes shared after his death often feature him playing a stringed musical instrument, offering a glimpse into the creative life he led before it was abruptly ended. He remains a poignant symbol of the heavy toll paid by the youth of Iran during the 2022 protests.

امین معرفت، نوجوان ۱۶ ساله اهل اشنویه، یکی از قربانیان کم‌سن‌وسال اعتراضات سراسری در ایران بود. در ۳۰ شهریور ۱۴۰۱، در نخستین روزهای جنبش «زن، زندگی، آزادی»، او در جریان اعتراضات در زادگاهش هدف شلیک مستقیم نیروهای حکومتی قرار گرفت و بر اثر اصابت گلوله به ناحیه سر جان باخت. در کنار سوگ فقدانش، از امین به عنوان نوجوانی یاد می‌شود که به هنر و موسیقی علاقه داشت. در تصاویر و ویدیوهای به‌جامانده از او، این نوجوان در حال نواختن یک ساز زهی دیده می‌شود که نشان‌دهنده شور زندگی و علایق هنری اوست. نام او در میان بسیاری از همسالانش به عنوان نمادی از بهای سنگینی که نسل جوان ایران در راه آزادی پرداختند، در یادها ثبت شده است.
