Malala Yousafzai: In Pakistan terrorists are afraid of education

A year ago this week, the Pakistani teenager Malala Yousafzai was on a bus coming home from school when she was shot in the head by the Taliban.

It was a moment that sparked shock and anger in Pakistan and around the world - the targeting of a schoolgirl because she had spoken out for girls' rights to education.

Malala is now living in Birmingham and spoke to the Today programme's Mishal Husain in her first interview since the shooting.

"It was difficult to adjust to this new culture and new society" she said, when asked about her new life in the UK, after moving from Pakistan.

"I'm still following my own culture... this Western society accepts other culture, so it's a good thing," she said.

She defined her role by adding: "I'm a campaigner of education, I am a children's rights activist and I'm a women's rights activist."

But she added that in Pakistan it was very precious and prestigious for a girl to go to school - "we know that terrorists are afraid of the power of education."

More can be seen on Malala's story on Panorama on Monday 7 October on BBC1.

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4's Today programme on Monday 7 October 2013.

"The Daily Show" Malala argumentiert US-Moderator sprachlos
10. Oktober 2013, 11:38 Uhr

Es muss aufregend sein, Malala zu treffen, die jüngste Person, die jemals für den Friedensnobelpreis nominiert wurde. US-Moderator John Stewart war so beeindruckt, dass er sie sogar adoptieren wollte.
[...]

Nun wird die Kinderrechtsaktivistin auch mit dem diesjährigen Sacharow-Preis des Europaparlaments für Meinungsfreiheit ausgezeichnet. Neben der 16-Jährigen waren noch drei in Weißrussland inhaftierte Menschenrechtsaktivisten und der US-Geheimdienstenthüller Edward Snowden nominiert.

The Nobel Peace Prize 2014

Kailash Satyarthi, Malala Yousafzay

The Nobel Peace Prize for 2014

The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided that the Nobel Peace Prize for 2014 is to be awarded to Kailash Satyarthi and Malala Yousafzay for their struggle against the suppression of children and young people and for the right of all children to education.  Children must go to school and not be financially exploited.  In the poor countries of the world, 60% of the present population is under 25 years of age.  It is a prerequisite for peaceful global development that the rights of children and young people be respected.  In conflict-ridden areas in particular, the violation of children leads to the continuation of violence from generation to generation.

Showing great personal courage, Kailash Satyarthi, maintaining Gandhi’s tradition, has headed various forms of protests and demonstrations, all peaceful, focusing on the grave exploitation of children for financial gain.  He has also contributed to the development of important international conventions on children’s rights.

Despite her youth, Malala Yousafzay has already fought for several years for the right of girls to education, and has shown by example that children and young people, too, can contribute to improving their own situations.  This she has done under the most dangerous circumstances.  Through her heroic struggle she has become a leading spokesperson for girls’ rights to education.

The Nobel Committee regards it as an important point for a Hindu and a Muslim, an Indian and a Pakistani, to join in a common struggle for education and against extremism.  Many other individuals and institutions in the international community have also contributed.  It has been calculated that there are 168 million child labourers around the world today.  In 2000 the figure was 78 million higher.  The world has come closer to the goal of eliminating child labour.

The struggle against suppression and for the rights of children and adolescents contributes to the realization of the “fraternity between nations” that Alfred Nobel mentions in his will as one of the criteria for the Nobel Peace Prize.
