About Malala Fund
Malala Fund works to secure 12 years of safe, free, quality education for all girls so they can learn and lead without fear. When girls complete secondary school, they have more opportunities to make their own life choices and reach their fullest potential.
What we do
Nearly than 120 million girls are out of school today. Here’s how we’re breaking down the barriers that hold girls back.
We build networks of education advocates.
Through our Education Champion Network, we invest in local educators and activists — the people who best understand girls in their communities — in regions where the most girls are missing out on secondary education. We leverage their collective power to create broader change and make it easier for all girls to learn.
We advocate to hold leaders accountable.
We advocate — at local, national and international levels — for resources and policy changes needed to give every girl a secondary education. We influence governments to invest in girls' education and hold them accountable for their commitments.
We help develop the next generation of young leaders.
Girls should speak for themselves and tell leaders what they need to learn and achieve their potential. Our Girl Programme gives girls the tools and resources they need to advocate for education and equality in their communities and a platform for the world to hear their voices.
About Malala Yousafzai
Malala Yousafzai is co-founder and executive chair of Malala Fund. Malala began her campaign for education at age 11 when she anonymously blogged for the BBC about life under the Taliban in Pakistan’s Swat Valley. Inspired by her father’s activism, Malala soon began advocating publicly for girls’ education — attracting international media attention and awards.
At age 15, she was attacked by the Taliban for speaking out. Malala recovered in the U.K. and continued her fight for girls. In 2013 she co-founded Malala Fund with her father, Ziauddin. A year later, Malala received the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of her efforts to see every girl complete 12 years of free, safe, quality education.
Malala is a graduate of Oxford University with a degree in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics.
