Laura Bush om vikten av Malalas fredspris

Laura Bush skriver här i Time om vikten av Malalas fredspris och varför den unga flickan skänker hopp. Bush skriver bl a:

Malala, who on Friday became the youngest recipient ever of the Nobel Peace Prize, has said what many older, more privileged and far more powerful people haven’t: that education gives power to the powerless.


Och vidare:

It is well documented that when societies educate girls—as well as boys—and value educated women, all citizens are healthier and more prosperous


Och lite längre fram avslutar hon:

Malala reminds us that even a teenager can be a teacher. I hope her message will be embraced and spread across the globe: that no matter who you are, it is possible to change the world.
