First Move with Julia Chatterley

In 2013, a year after she survived a brutal attack by the Taliban, activist and Nobel Peace Prize Winner Malala Yousafzai founded the Malala Fund with her father to improve access to education for young women around the world. Three years later, Malala and airbnb cofounder Joe Gebbia traveled to Kenya and Rwanda to work on girls' education in refugee camps. That trip began a multiyear partnership between the two. Gebbia just announced a $25 million donation to the Malala Fund -- its largest donation to date. They both join the show to discuss their efforts.
