From the very young age of 11, Malala Yousafzai was already fighting for girls' right to education in her rural Pakistan hometown. Inspired greatly by her father, an educator and activist, Malala spoke out against the Taliban demanding her right to attend school after they took control of the Swat Valley region. Her voice gained more awareness and moved the world in October 2012, when a member of the Pakistani Taliban boarded her school bus home and shot her in the head. Miraculously surviving the attack, Malala was globally recognized as a Pakistani activist for female education and became the youngest Nobel Peace Prize laureate.  In 2013,  Malala co-founded the Malala Fund with her father,  Ziauddin Yousafzai.   In this View From The Top, Rustom Birdie, MBA ’22, sits down with Malala to discuss the power of her voice, when to use it, her hopes for Afghanistan, and her dream of giving 130 million girls an education.
