Activity 2: The Right to an Education [4 points]

Malala Yousafzai is a woman who was born and raised in Pakistan. In 2012, she was shot and wounded when traveling home on the bus from school. At the time, girls (and women) living in Pakistan were not encouraged, or even allowed, to go to school. It is widely believed that Malala was attacked because she (and her father) did not agree with this idea and they felt that women had the right to an education.

Once Malala recovered from her injuries she continued to advocate (fight) for the rights of all women to receive an education. For this work, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014 - the youngest person to ever receive this prestigious prize. You can read more of her story here.

As well as giving speeches in front of many very important and influential people, Malala has written books about her own life. She has also written a book for children called Malala’s Magic Pencil.

Our 3rd Christmas was great i got to meat lots of my family that i had never met before at a pool party.We had a massive lunch and also the best thing about it was you could take as much as you wanted to and wouldn't be looked at strangely for being a bit to greedy.There were a lot or different things to do there but the ting i spent the most time doing was flipping my sister (Who can swim just to clarify) off the pool floaty. I got to see My favorite cousins Jack and Jorge there jobs are cool especially jacks he is part of the navy and rights real pirates.He takes us out to get mac Donald's and we can get anything which we never get to happen to us.The last time i went to mac Donald´s with him was in 2017 because he is so busy fighting pirates.But he is kind and the best part is he let me chose my meal it was a big mac combo with a ice cream and a large drink and extra fries because i never get to go to mac Donald´s.Jorge is a electrician but he recently got in an accident a power box blew up in his face and he got burned and was in hospital for a long time.
