Malala Yousafzai is from Mingora, the largest city in the Swat Valley, located in what is now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, Pakistan. She was born there on July 12, 1997, and grew up in a family that actively supported education. Her early life in Mingora and the Swat Valley shaped her advocacy for girls’ education, which later propelled her onto the global stage, including receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014. If you want, I can share more details about her hometown’s geography, culture, or how Mingora influenced her work.
