Malala Fund

With the walls of Afghanistan as canvases, ArtLords is spreading hope through art. Malala Fund commissioned them to paint a mural in London, alongside Malala and students. And Afghan girls from the ArtLords team in Afghanistan painted the same mural at a school in Kabul.❤️🎨

"Where do Afghan women go to see justice? Where they do they go when they are harmed, when they are put in prisons? The Taliban are not going to give them justice. That’s why codifying gender apartheid and creating a system of accountability is critical." Malala and Sahar Halaimzai, Director of Malala Fund's Afghanistan Initiative, speak to Rukhshana Media on the fight to codify gender apartheid ➡️ mala.la/3WsLDI0

"It is the right of every Afghan girl to be in a classroom. We need the world to stand up." Malala speaks on the fight against gender apartheid in Afghanistan and urges leaders to stand with Afghan women and girls.

From Afghanistan to Nigeria, Pakistan and around the world — Malala Fund works to see all girls in school and learning. Today on Malala’s birthday, take a moment to learn about the work she's leading: malala.org.

Afghan students Muska, Sana and Somaya may have different favourite classes and plans after graduating from their high school in the U.K., but they share one thing in common — they all wish girls in Afghanistan could go to school, just like they do.    The girls met with Malala for her birthday this year, shared their stories and spoke with their classmates on how young people can be strong advocates for Afghan girls.

Every year on her birthday, Malala meets with young women to hear their stories and amplify their demands. This year, she spent her birthday at a London school (Harrow High School), where she met Afghan students Somaya, Muska and Sana to chat about their hopes for Afghan girls’ future. And together they facilitated a discussion with other students, worked on a mural and wrote letters to girls in Afghanistan.  Read a recap of the day here: mala.la/malaladay24
