【Owl Gets Inspired – Malala】貓頭鷹大人物會客室─馬拉拉
Her name is Malala Yousafzai, and this young education activist from Pakistan is 2014’s Nobel Peace Prize Winner. She is only 17, making her the youngest Nobel prize winner in history. Two years ago, Malala was shot by the Taliban on her way to school. She survived, and continued to campaign relentlessly for the right of girls to be educated. One small person can make a big difference. May we all make a difference in our corner of the world!
