"Girl Reading" - - by Jonathan Yeo

Malala Yousafzai is a well-known activist for education, particularly for girls' education. She became an advocate for education at a young age, when the Taliban began to restrict girls' access to education in her home region of Swat Valley in Pakistan. In 2012, when she was just 15 years old, she was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman while on her way home from school. However, Malala survived the attack and has continued to speak out about the importance of education and advocate for girls' rights around the world. Her bravery and activism have inspired many people around the world. In 2014, she became the youngest person ever to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, at the age of 17.

In addition to her advocacy work, Malala has also founded the Malala Fund, a non-profit organization that works to provide education opportunities for girls around the world. The organization focuses on regions where girls are most likely to miss out on school, such as Nigeria, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Through her work, Malala has become an inspiration to many, and her story has brought global attention to the issue of girls' education.
