In our ICT class we've been doing an exercise about the people who won the Nobel prizes between the years 1996 and 2016 and our teacher told us to choose one of them.I've chosen Malala Youszafai ,she was given the nobel peace prize because she defends women's schooling,she is the youngest -ever Nobel prize laureate.
Malala Yousafzai was born on July 12, 1997, in Mingora, Pakistan. As a child, she became an advocate for girls' education, which resulted in the Taliban issuing a death threat against her. On October 9, 2012, a gunman shot Malala when she was traveling home from school. She survived, and has continued to speak out on the importance of education. She was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize in 2013. In 2014, she was nominated again and won, becoming the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.
Yousafzai attended a school that her father, Ziauddin Yousafzai, had founded. After the Taliban began attacking girls' schools in Swat, Malala gave a speech in Peshawar, Pakistan, in September 2008. The title of her talk was, "How dare the Taliban take away my basic right to education?"
In early 2009, Yousafzai began blogging for the BBC about living under the Taliban's threats to deny her an education. In order to hide her identity, she used the name Gul Makai. However, she was revealed to be the BBC blogger in December of that year.
I have chosen Malala youszafai because I think that she has inspired a lot of people and she has become the role model of a lot of people.Even though she was shot ,she had the encouragement to go trough in life giving importan speeches about how important is education.
