The bravery and courage of Malala Yousafzai is not something that needs an introduction. The world knows her for being a lion-heart, who fought for her own rights and is still striving to make sure that every girl has a chance to a fair life and education.
Yesterday was Malala’s last day at school and the 19-year-old Nobel laureate decided to join Twitter.
She shared her experience of leaving school and also wrote about her plans to help young women around the world in a Twitter thread –
