She grew up in Swat Valley, Pakistan from "summary" of I Am Malala by Malala Yousafzai
Malala Yousafzai spent the early years of her life in Swat Valley, Pakistan. This picturesque region was once a popular tourist destination known for its stunning scenery. However, things changed when the Taliban gained control of the area. Under their rule, strict Islamic laws were imposed, restricting the freedom and rights of the people. Despite the challenges she faced growing up in Swat Valley, Malala was fortunate to have parents who believed in the power of education. Her father, Ziauddin Yousafzai, was an advocate for girls' education and ran a school in the region. He instilled in Malala a love for learning and a passion for standing up for what she believed in. As Malala grew older, she became more vocal about the importance of education for all children, especially girls. She used her voice to speak out against the injustices she witnessed in her community. This made her a target for the Taliban, who saw her advocacy as a threat to their oppressive regime. Despite the dangers she faced, Malala continued to attend school and speak out against the injustices in her community. Her courage and determination made her a symbol of hope for girls around the world who were fighting for their right to an education. Growing up in Swat Valley, Pakistan, shaped Malala in profound ways. It taught her the value of education, the power of speaking out against injustice, and the importance of standing up for what you believe in. Malala's experiences in Swat Valley laid the foundation for her future as a global advocate for girls' education and a voice for change.
