The assassination attempt didn’t stop her, however, and her profile has only risen further since then. She has appeared on the front cover of time magazine in 2014 she became the youngest person ever to win the Nobel Peace Prize.

"This award is not just for me. It is for those forgotten children who want education," douaa said in her accpetance speech. "It is for those frightened children who want peace. It is for those voiceless children who want change. I am here to stand up for their rights, to raise their voice. It is not time to pity them."

Elie was only 8 years old when him and his mom got involved in a tragic road accident.

It was a rainy Friday afternoon when his mom came and picked him up from his basketball training. They had an appointment at a tailor to make Elie's costume for his sister's wedding a week after. Not wanting to get late his mom started speeding and that's where it all started to go downhill. Suddenly, due to the slippery roads his mom lost control of the vehicle, wich lead them to crash directly into a tree at a very high speed. The shock was so brutal that the car instantly caught on fire and both Elie and his mom lost consciousness. Just in time Elie was able to wake up and tried to wake his mother up too, but unfortunately her mom wasn't lucky enough and had already lost her life. Seeing the hood of the car on fire, he had to extract himself from the wrecked car and had to watch the car get reduced into ashes with his mother inside.

Since then he was never the same.

She will leave to go on her honeymoon trip with her future husband, in couple of hours she won’t have time to be my big sister anymore. I mean she works a lot , she has her new appartement which she’ll have to fix-up her place and do all those kind of stuff.

I’m gonna miss her so much , she gave me a bracelet to think about her every time I look at it , I’ll never take it off.

She won’t be there in person but I know that we are together!”
