1
00:00:12,036 --> 00:00:13,506
I was named after a god.
2
00:00:15,159 --> 00:00:16,699
An Afghani folk hero
3
00:00:17,171 --> 00:00:18,731
who was killed in a battle.
4
00:00:19,653 --> 00:00:21,121
Just after I was born,
5
00:00:21,121 --> 00:00:23,042
my father got our family tree.
6
00:00:23,370 --> 00:00:25,180
It went back 300 years.
7
00:00:26,319 --> 00:00:29,049
But not a woman's name appeared on it.
8
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,230
He decided to make me the first.
9
00:00:33,227 --> 00:00:34,617
He wrote Malala.
10
00:00:35,934 --> 00:00:37,274
That's me.
11
00:00:38,742 --> 00:00:40,962
When her father's school was closed down
12
00:00:40,962 --> 00:00:42,132
by the Taliban,
13
00:00:42,137 --> 00:00:44,407
Malala Yousafzai began to campaign for
14
00:00:44,407 --> 00:00:46,540
the right of girl's across the country
15
00:00:46,540 --> 00:00:47,890
to go to school.
16
00:00:48,993 --> 00:00:50,153
I have rights.
17
00:00:50,164 --> 00:00:51,764
I have the right of education,
18
00:00:51,764 --> 00:00:53,034
I have the right to play,
19
00:00:53,319 --> 00:00:55,209
I have the right to sing, to talk,
20
00:00:55,217 --> 00:00:57,007
I have the right to go to the market
21
00:00:57,311 --> 00:00:58,791
I have the right to speak up.
22
00:00:58,791 --> 00:01:11,411
(music is playing)
23
00:01:11,411 --> 00:01:12,701
(gunshot noise)
24
00:01:16,426 --> 00:01:17,856
They shot her in the head.
25
00:01:17,856 --> 00:01:19,980
She's still in critical condition.
26
00:01:24,789 --> 00:01:26,869
She was airlifted to a military hospital
27
00:01:26,869 --> 00:01:29,244
in Peshawar where she had surgery.
28
00:01:29,245 --> 00:01:31,305
A surgeon's battle to safe her life.
29
00:01:39,739 --> 00:01:41,730
In this foto released today,
30
00:01:41,730 --> 00:01:43,528
Malala's eyes have opened.
31
00:01:44,275 --> 00:01:46,245
We have some really good news to report.
32
00:01:46,245 --> 00:01:48,102
Malala Yousafzai walked out
33
00:01:48,102 --> 00:01:49,828
of the London hospital today.
34
00:01:53,114 --> 00:01:54,844
Today,
35
00:01:54,844 --> 00:01:58,016
it is an honour for me
36
00:01:58,016 --> 00:01:59,854
to be speaking again
37
00:01:59,854 --> 00:02:01,244
after a long time.
38
00:02:04,084 --> 00:02:06,244
They thought that the bullet
39
00:02:06,245 --> 00:02:07,585
would silent us.
40
00:02:10,391 --> 00:02:11,491
But they failed.
41
00:02:20,558 --> 00:02:24,128
My message right now is to young people.
42
00:02:25,246 --> 00:02:28,276
We are living in a world where
43
00:02:28,276 --> 00:02:30,070
things are not the way we want.
44
00:02:30,070 --> 00:02:34,502
We're getting a system, a world which is
45
00:02:34,502 --> 00:02:37,362
unequal, sexist, racist.
46
00:02:37,362 --> 00:02:41,532
They are discriminating aganist people.
47
00:02:41,548 --> 00:02:43,689
Our climate, our enviroment is at risk.
48
00:02:43,689 --> 00:02:45,729
And there's so much that needs to be done
49
00:02:45,729 --> 00:02:47,079
But, I hope that
50
00:02:47,079 --> 00:02:50,664
young people stand up, raise their voices,
51
00:02:50,664 --> 00:02:52,782
start their activism right now.
52
00:02:52,782 --> 00:02:54,082
Let your age not stop you.
53
00:02:54,082 --> 00:02:55,876
Often times we are told that
54
00:02:55,877 --> 00:02:57,907
you have to be 14, 15 to change the world.
55
00:02:57,907 --> 00:02:59,247
I do not believe in that.
56
00:02:59,247 --> 00:03:01,138
I think you can be a change maker now.
57
00:03:01,146 --> 00:03:05,146
If you are 11, 16; if you are 30, 40.
58
00:03:05,146 --> 00:03:07,326
Change is possible anytime.
59
00:03:07,326 --> 00:03:09,711
And I want you to believe in yourself and
60
00:03:09,711 --> 00:03:12,191
make this world fairer, more equal and
61
00:03:12,191 --> 00:03:14,040
a better place for each and everyone.
62
00:03:16,427 --> 00:03:17,517
And once again,
63
00:03:17,819 --> 00:03:19,472
there are positive solutions
64
00:03:19,472 --> 00:03:21,412
that can turn around things fast.
65
00:03:24,299 --> 00:03:26,839
We need more women in positions of power.
66
00:03:27,603 --> 00:03:29,093
At every level of government.
67
00:03:30,151 --> 00:03:31,421
The time has come for
68
00:03:31,421 --> 00:03:33,721
quoters that make sure that women are
69
00:03:33,721 --> 00:03:35,391
equally represented
70
00:03:35,391 --> 00:03:36,761
in every country.
71
00:03:37,740 --> 00:03:40,088
It's time make our laws equal.
72
00:03:40,088 --> 00:03:42,941
So that every woman is entitled to a job,
73
00:03:42,941 --> 00:03:45,545
and a national identification card
74
00:03:45,547 --> 00:03:47,107
and to own property.
75
00:03:49,135 --> 00:03:52,285
Women must live free from violance
76
00:03:52,285 --> 00:03:54,463
and have the right to make decisions over
77
00:03:54,463 --> 00:03:56,153
their bodies and lives,
78
00:03:56,153 --> 00:03:58,183
especially in choosing if
79
00:03:58,183 --> 00:03:59,613
and when they marry.
80
00:04:00,476 --> 00:04:02,316
We must guarantee full access to
81
00:04:02,316 --> 00:04:04,526
sexual and reproductive health services
82
00:04:04,526 --> 00:04:05,556
and rights.
83
00:04:06,087 --> 00:04:07,897
We must provide the money
84
00:04:07,901 --> 00:04:09,921
to close the gap in girl's education.
85
00:04:10,524 --> 00:04:12,134
And there are important changes
86
00:04:12,134 --> 00:04:14,004
needed to achieve economic empowerment
87
00:04:14,004 --> 00:04:15,054
for women.
88
00:04:15,531 --> 00:04:17,471
From equal access to finance,
89
00:04:17,767 --> 00:04:19,617
to ending the gender pay gap.
