Malala Yousafzai, born on 12 July 1997. Malala Yousafzai has her life and career meticulously and in detail described below. Malala Yousafzai is a Pakistani activist for female education and the youngest Nobel Prize laureate. Malala Yousafzai is known for human rights advocacy, especially the education of women and children in her native Swat Valley in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, northwest Pakistan, where the local Pakistani Taliban had at times banned girls from attending school. Her advocacy has grown into an international movement, and according to former Pakistani Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, Malala Yousafzai has become “the most prominent citizen” of the country.

Malala Yousafzai Facts

The daughter of educational activist Ziauddin, Malala Yousafzai was born to a Pashtun family in Mingora, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Her family came to run a chain of schools in the region. Considering Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Benazir Bhutto as her role models, Malala Yousafzai was particularly inspired by her father’s thoughts and humanitarian work. In early 2009, when she was 11–12, Malala Yousafzai wrote a blog under a pseudonym for the BBC Urdu detailing her life during the Pakistani Taliban occupation of Swat. The following summer, journalist Adam B. Ellick made a New York Times documentary about her life as the Pakistani military intervened in the region. Malala Yousafzai rose in prominence, giving interviews in print and on television, and she was nominated for the International Children’s Peace Prize by activist Desmond Tutu.

Malala Yousafzai Facts

On 9 October 2012, while on a bus in the Swat District, after taking an exam, Malala Yousafzai and two other girls were shot by a Pakistani Taliban gunman in an assassination attempt in retaliation for her activism. The gunman fled the scene. Malala Yousafzai was hit in the head with a bullet and remained unconscious and in critical condition at the Rawalpindi Institute of Cardiology, but her condition later improved enough for her to be transferred to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, UK. The attempt on her life sparked an international outpouring of support for Yousafzai. Deutsche Welle reported in January 2013 that Malala Yousafzai may have become “the most famous teenager in the world”.

Malala Yousafzai Facts

Following her recovery, Yousafzai became a prominent activist for the right to education. Based in Birmingham, Malala Yousafzai co-founded the Malala Fund, a non-profit organisation with Shiza Shahid, and in 2013, Malala Yousafzai co-authored I Am Malala, an international best seller. In 2012, Malala Yousafzai was the recipient of Pakistan’s first National Youth Peace Prize and the 2013 Sakharov Prize. In 2014, Malala Yousafzai was the co-recipient of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize, along with Kailash Satyarthi of India. Aged 17 at the time, Malala Yousafzai was the youngest-ever Nobel Prize laureate. In 2015, Malala Yousafzai was a subject of the Oscar-shortlisted documentary He Named Me Malala. The 2013, 2014 and 2015, issues of Time magazine featured her as one of the most influential people globally. In 2017, Malala Yousafzai was awarded honorary Canadian citizenship and became the youngest person to address the House of Commons of Canada.

Malala Yousafzai is a Pakistani social activist and the world’s youngest recipient of the Nobel Prize. Born in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan, Malala was inspired as a child by her father’s humanitarian deeds and philosophy. When she was in 7th grade, Malala started writing a blog, using a pseudonym, for the global broadcasting giant BBC, describing life under the Talibani militant occupation of her hometown and the surrounding Swat valley. Subsequently, The New York Times picked up on the story and made a documentary about her life. The documentary put her in the spotlight as the media started to cover her as a voice of peace and reason. In October 2012, as she was returning home in a school bus, Malala and 2 other girls were shot at by a Talibani militant. The assassination attempt was, supposedly, retaliation against her activism. Malala was hit in the head and remained in critical condition for a while.

As her condition gradually improved, she was transferred to the UK for further medical care. This dastardly attack on a teenager sparked international outrage against militancy in the region. Malala received an overwhelming outpouring of support from numerous governments, human rights organizations, and feminist groups. After recovering from her critical injuries, Malala became a vocal activist for the right to education, especially for girls. She based herself in the city of Birmingham and founded the Malala Fund, a non-profit organization that aims to help every girl under the age of 12, receive a formal education. Her advocacy has found several backers around the world and her slogan ‘books, not bullets’ has turned the idea of ‘education for all’ into a global movement. In 2017, She became the youngest ever United Nations ‘Messenger of Peace’.
