"I Am Malala" by Malala Yousafzai with Christina Lamb , detailing the author's life, political activism, and experiences in Pakistan. The book outlines Malala’s upbringing in the Swat Valley, her Pashtun culture with its strict social codes, and her family's dedication to education, particularly her father’s founding of the Khushal School. A major focus is the rise of the Taliban in Swat , including the influence of the "Radio Mullah," which led to the banning of girls' education and the subsequent destruction of schools. The book culminates in the attempted assassination of Malala on a school bus in 2012, her critical medical journey, and her commitment to campaigning for global education.

In 2013, a year after she survived a brutal attack by the Taliban, activist and Nobel Peace Prize Winner Malala Yousafzai founded the Malala Fund with her father to improve access to education for young women around the world. Three years later, Malala and airbnb cofounder Joe Gebbia traveled to Kenya and Rwanda to work on girls' education in refugee camps. That trip began a multiyear partnership between the two. Gebbia just announced a $25 million donation to the Malala Fund -- its largest donation to date. They both join the show to discuss their efforts.

The Pakistani activist and writer Malala Yousafzai won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for her work in favour of the right of children, particularly girls, to education. Aged 17 when she received the award, she became the youngest ever person to receive a Nobel in any category. A BBC blogger since 2009, she has been a persistent critic of the Taliban in her country, which resulted in an attempt on her life when she was on a bus near her home in Pakistan in 2012. She studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Lady Margaret Hall College, Oxford, and has an honorary doctorate from Kings College University, Halifax, Canada. We open this episode with an excerpt from an event at Winter Weekend 2018 from Malala’s father, Ziauddin Yousafzai. For more than 20 years, Ziauddin Yousafzai has been fighting for equality – first for Malala, his daughter – and then for all girls throughout the world living in patriarchal societies. Taught as a young boy in Pakistan to believe that he was inherently better than his sisters, Ziauddin rebelled against inequality at a young age. And when he had a daughter himself he vowed that Malala would have an education, something usually only given to boys, and he founded a school that Malala could attend.
