Pakistani education activist
Born: July 12, 1997

Malala Yousafzai is a renowned Pakistani human rights activist and Nobel laureate, born on July 12, 1997, in Mingora, Swat Valley, Pakistan. She gained international recognition for her courageous advocacy of girls’ education in her native region, where the Taliban had banned girls from attending school.

Malala’s activism began when she was just 11 years old, writing a blog under a pseudonym for BBC Urdu, highlighting the challenges faced by girls seeking education under Taliban rule. Her identity was soon revealed, making her a target for the militants. On October 9, 2012, a Taliban gunman boarded her school bus and shot her in an assassination attempt. Miraculously surviving the attack, Malala was airlifted to a hospital in the United Kingdom for specialized treatment.

The attack only strengthened Malala’s resolve to fight for the rights of girls and education worldwide. She co-authored the memoir “I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban,” which became an international bestseller. In recognition of her courage and advocacy, Malala was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014, becoming the youngest-ever recipient at the age of 17.

Since then, Malala has continued to champion education and women’s rights through the Malala Fund, a nonprofit organization she co-founded. She has spoken at numerous international forums, addressing world leaders and advocating for global access to education. Malala’s unwavering dedication to the cause has inspired millions of people around the world, making her an iconic symbol of courage, resilience, and the power of education.
