WHO IS MALALA YOUSAFZAI?Malala Yousafzai is a young Pakistani Human Rights Activist

who fights for the rights of girls and women to receive an education. She became a household name by surviving an

assassination attempt by the Taliban. She risked her life for the cause and has changed history.

Malala Yousafzai

20

Early LifeMalala was born on 12 July 1997, in Mingora, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Her father, Ziauddin, was a teacher who ran several schools in the local district. Her mother, Toor Pekai, had little education and worked in the home, raising Malala and her two younger brothers. The family practise the religion of Islam, following many traditional practices such as Salat (the five daily prayers).

EducationMany Pakistani girls did not attend school. However, Malala’s father ran a school for girls, which she attended. Malala loved school and had big dreams of becoming a teacher, a doctor or a politician. When the Taliban (a fundamentalist religious movement from Pashtun) began to take control of the area where Malala lived, they demanded that all girls’ schools be shut down. Women were no longer allowed to vote or to have jobs. All women and girls were to stay home. If they went out, they had to wear a burqa (a garment that covers the head, face and body) and be accompanied by a man. In January 2008, Malala was forced to farewell her classmates, not knowing if she would ever have the opportunity to see them again.

Social Activism In 2009, Malala began to write a blog about the destruction and closure of more than 100 girls’ schools in Pakistan. She used the penname ‘Gul Makai’ – a brave female character from a Pakastani folktale. She

became famous for her blog, which was called Diary of a Pakistani Schoolgirl. During this time, Malala also began speaking publicly against the Taliban. Despite the Taliban threatening to kill her, she bravely continued fighting for the rights of girls and women to receive an education in Pakistan. Schools eventually reopened, but the Taliban remained in force throughout Pakistani cities.

Assassination AttemptIn 2012, Malala was on her school bus when a masked gunman boarded and asked, “Who is Malala?” He said he would shoot everyone on the bus if they did not tell. When Malala’s scared friends looked her way, the gunman shot Malala. The bullet passed through her head, missing her left eye and her brain. Malala was given emergency treatment in Pakistan, and then relocated to Great Britain for further medical support. During her treatment, people worldwide began supporting her cause.

The Fight ContinuesAmazingly, Malala survived this horrendous ordeal. On her sixteenth birthday, she presented a speech to the United Nations, imploring that all children around the world receive an education. In 2014, at the age of seventeen, Malala was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize – the youngest ever winner of this award. She continues to fight for peace and equality through her charity, the Malala Fund. Malala is determined to help build a world where “all girls can learn and lead”.
