The Election Agenda and the Man Behind Malala
Ziauddin Yousafzai: Pakistan's Fight for Education
While Ontario students count down the days until summer vacation, children in Pakistan's Swat Valley count down the days until they can safely return to school. In recent years, the region has faced the onslaught of a Taliban enemy determined to prevent girls from receiving an education. In October 2012 they boarded a Pakistani school bus and shot then-15 year-old Malala Yousafzai, a vocal advocate for female education. Malala survived. The next year she was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. What bred such an unwavering spirit? Malala's father Ziauddin Yousafzai, chair of the Malala Fund, sits down with Steve Paikin to discuss his family, his fight for education, and the fame his daughter has received.
