Young Activist, Malala Yousafzai Gains Admission To Study At Oxford University

Malala Yousafzai has started her studies at Oxford University, five years to the day that she was shot by the Taliban for campaigning for girls' education. Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai, the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize when she was 17,
said on Thursday she was “excited” after winning a place to study at Oxford University.
Yousafzai said she had been accepted at Oxford to study Politics, Philosophy, and Economics. She joined thousands of other students in Britain in discovering where they will go to university after getting their final school results.

Others to have studied the same course at Oxford, one of the world’s top universities, include former British Prime Minister David Cameron and late Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.
Yousafzai, now 20, came to prominence when a Taliban gunman shot her in the head in 2012, after she was targeted for her campaign against efforts by the Taliban to deny women education. She won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014.
..
Congrats to her.
