5 memorable Malala quotes from the World Economic Forum 2018
Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai is the inspiration that we all need in today’s time.
In a world where many women and girls struggle to get an education, she's a 20-year-old who's looked the Taliban in the eye and continued to persevere, advocating for the right to schooling.
The 20-year-old global education campaigner spoke eloquently at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Thursday, not long before Trump's arrival; the annual conference, which unites the world's business and political elite, also takes place this year in the shadow of the feminist #MeToo campaign that rattled Hollywood and spread across the globe in 2017.
Here are 5 important quotes from Yousafzai who is wise beyond her years.
On Trump:
When asked if she had any message for the US president, she said, “I get so disappointed to see that people in these high positions openly talk against women, do not accept women as equals, they harass women. It is just shocking to think that it is happening. I hope that women stand up and speak out against it."
About time people start using their privilege for good.
