  • Born July 12, 1997, Mingora, Swat valley, Pakistan

  • She gained global attention when she survived an assassination attempt at age 15.

  • The daughter of an outspoken social activist and educator, Yousafzai was an excellent student.

  • In 2007 the Swat valley, once a vacation destination, was invaded by the TTP who began destroying or shutting down girls’ schools, banning women from any active role in society, and carrying out suicide bombings.

  • When Yousafzai was 11 years old, her father took her to a local press club in Peshawar to protest the school closings, and she gave her first speech—“How Dare the Taliban Take Away My Basic Right to Education?” Her speech was publicized throughout Pakistan.

  • Under the name Gul Makai, Yousafzai began writing regular entries for BBC Urdu about her daily life. She wrote from January through the beginning of March of 2009. Meanwhile, the TTP shut down all girls’ schools in Swat and blew up more than 100 of them.

  • With Yousafzai’s continuing television appearances and coverage in the local and international media, it had become apparent by December 2009 that she was the BBC’s young blogger. Once her identity was known, she began to receive widespread recognition for her activism. In October 2011 she was nominated for the International Children’s Peace Prize. In December of that year she was awarded Pakistan’s first National Youth Peace Prize.

  • October 9th 2012, Malala was shot in the head, neck and shoulder in an assassination attempt ordered by the Taliban.

  • The incident elicited protests, and her cause was taken up around the world, including by the UN special envoy, who introduced a petition that called for all children around the world to be back in school by 2015. That petition led to the ratification of Pakistan’s first Right to Education bill.

  • Among her many awards, in 2013 Yousafzai won the United Nations Human Rights Prize, awarded every five years.

  • Nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2013 but passed over that year, Yousafzai in 2014 won the prize, becoming the youngest Nobel laureate.

  • In July 2015, with support from the Malala Fund, she opened a girls’ school in Lebanon for refugees from the Syrian Civil War.

  • After winning the Nobel Prize, Yousafzai continued to attend school in England—she graduated from the University of Oxford in 2020—while using her enhanced public profile to bring attention to human rights issues around the world.
