The Nobel laureate emphasized that the talks should be more focused on the security of the citizens and giving political rights to women.
Further, she has launched Assembly, a digital publication and newsletter from Malala Fund, that will amplify the stories of women and girls from around the world.
So far, the platform has received stories from around 100 countries in 22 languages which are available on Instagram.
The advocate of women’s education, Malala, covers a vast range of topics like recycling, social norms, structural racism, mental health, and climate change.
Before gaining popularity, Malala had served as a prominent activist against the ban on girl’s education by the Taliban in the Swat district of Pakistan since 2013.
Later, she utilized the BBC Urdu platform as a blogger to raise her voice and thoughts on education of young girls.
Besides speaking for women’s education, Malala strongly believes that the interest of Afghans holds great significance and progressive measures should be taken to shield the nation and its people.
