Ziauddin Yousafzai Keynote Speech at Pegasus Conference
- May 3, 2014
I had the honour to introduce Ziauddin Yousafzai at Pegasus Conference -
an international on Peace, Global Health and Sustainability in Toronto, Canada
to the audience. The conference was aimed at to find the way forward on issues
such as: peace through health, eco-health, advocacy and turning marginalized
communities into healthy ones. The conference was attended by physicians,
doctors, medical students, academics, policy makers and peace- builders.
Ziauddin was keynote speaker at the conference. He spoke on
wide ranging issues such as: militancy, geo-political interventions, systemic atrocities,
social issues, poverty, and our peoples resilience, contributions to peace, longing
for education, society reform and building healthy society along side vulnerabilities.
Ziauddin received a standing ovation and prolonged applause.
Zaiuddin finished his speech with Faiz's poem " ...Raj Karay Gee KhalQ -e
- Khuda" and people will be the owner of their destiny.
Many people commented that Ziauddin educated them about AfPak
and Pashtuns in a simple and clear way
Video will be shared in few days.
