She will lead a class on "creating change". "With powerful stories from her personal journey of becoming an activist, Malala will share tactics, tools and her four-stage framework for advocacy with members who are looking to forge their own path toward impactful change in society," a statement from MasterClass read. Malala was the youngest ever Nobel Peace Prize winner in 2014 for her work campaigning for girls to have a universal right to education. She was 17 at the time. The Pakistani woman was shot in the head by the Taliban as a teenager for speaking out about the barbaric regime. A campaign to support the young woman spread across the world, using the phrase "I am Malala". "As the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner, Malala has fought for and brought global attention to the issue of girls' rights to education," said David Rogier, founder and CEO of MasterClass. "Her class brings social activism to the ground level and empowers members to work within local systems to push forward changes that benefit communities today and in the future." MasterClass subscribers get access to more than 150 celebrity and famous instructors with an annual membership. "An advocate is someone who sees an injustice and doesn't ignore it, but wants to take action," Malala said. "My goal is to leverage the MasterClass platform as a vehicle to reach and instill courage in those who want to find their voice." Editorial usage.

Nobel Peace prize winner, Malala Yousafzai, 20, started her education comfortably at Oxford University in a pair of fitted jeans, heeled ankle boots, and a jacket, but internet trolls are criticizing her for wearing clothing that is different from her usual Muslim approved attire of a shalwar kameeze . SEE THE PIC OF MALALA IN JEANS AND BOOTS HERE. Although the young Pakistani student still had her duppata on her head, many people were not pleased with her new look and some newspapers in her home country even compared her outfit to an earthquake. See more photos of Malala here.

Some messages targeted to Malala on social media proved to be harsh with one from Pakistani media that even suggested her clothing was the reason she was shot in the head during a murder atempt by the Taliban in 2012. The haters for the young woman, who has been open about her hopes to be Prime Minister for her country someday, were met with an equal amount of supporters who suggested that there was nothing wrong with her clothing of choice.

The inspirational role model was accepted at prestigious Oxford in Aug. 2017 and has been studying Philosophy, Politics and Economics. Her life in the spotlight has been going on for years since she’s served as a true activist for women getting an education. She has been able to put her story out there in the 2015 documentary, He Named Me Malala and her own best-selling memoir, I Am Malala: The Story of the Girl Who Stood Up for Education and was Shot by the Taliban, which was published in 2013.

Malala wearing jeans and a shirt in Oxford has started another debate. Pious pakistanis were expecting burqah from her.
