Malala’s life has changed dramatically since the shooting. The bullet
severely damaged her hearing and fractured her skull, causing her brain to swell dangerously. Fortunately, the physicians in Birmingham were able to control the swelling. Over many months she had several operations to repair her skull and improve her hearing. Malala’s father has been given a job that enable the family to remain in the U. K., where, hopefully, they will be safe from the Taliban, who have vowed to come after Malala again.

Today, Malala has become a powerful symbol of the struggle so many
kids face. Some 132 million children and teens around the world do not attend school, often because they must work to help support their families or because they have no school to go to. Malala hopes to change that. She envisions a world in which all children, and especially girls, can get the education they need to become whatever they want-from doctors and scientists to politicians and journalists.

In one of her first public statements after the shooting, Malala stated
that she felt her life was to serve humanity.” In fall of 2013, she published a memoir called “I Am Malala.” The Malala Fund created in her name, is helping to send girls to school. Time magazine named her one of the most influential people in the world in 2013. In 2014 Time magazine named Malala one of the 25 most influential teenagers in the
world. She became the youngest person ever to win the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014. She was awarded $1.1 million dollars, which will be
used to help educate children around the world. “This award is for all those children who are voiceless,” she told reporters. “I speak for them. I stand up with them.”
