Keynote by Malala Yousafzai Education activist & Nobel Peace Prize winner at WOBI NY

Born and raised in the Swat Valley in Pakistan, Malala has been campaigning for the rights of girls to receive an education since she was 10 years old. In October 2012, this passion for education led to the then 15-year-old Malala being shot by the Taliban while traveling home from school. After being flown to the UK for treatment, she made a miraculous recovery from the attack, and has since continued her fight for the right of everyone to receive an education. Her bravery and dedication to her cause has seen her honored throughout the world, including as the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014.

Following the outpouring of support that Malala received throughout her ordeal, she set up an international fund – the Malala Fund – which is dedicated to help promote education for girls throughout the world. In addition to the Nobel Peace Prize, Malala was also named one of ‘The 100 Most Influential People in the World’ in 2013 by TIME magazine and honored with Amnesty International’s Ambassador of Conscience award. She is the winner of Pakistan’s first National Youth Peace Prize, the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought and Conscience, the International Children’s Peace Prize, and the Simone de Beauvoir Prize. She is also the author of the international bestseller I Am Malala, which has been published in over 27 territories.

Anthony Bourdain, he turned out to be universally popular with the release of his initial book, “Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly” in 2000. In 2001, he published the book “A Cook’s Tour” and furthermore hosted a network show by a similar name.

In 2005, he started hosting the Travel Channel’s culinary and social experience programs “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” and “The Layover”. As opposed to filling in as a gourmet expert at a specific foundation, he voyages, cooks, and recounts stories in prevalent books and TV shows.

In 2007, Bourdain and his wife, Ottavia, became parents to their daughter, Ariane. The couple and their daughter trained in jiu-jitsu fighting and Bourdain gave up his longstanding smoking habit. They separated amicably in 2016.

You never know what you’re going to get with Bourdain except that it will be real. His dream project is to open the Bourdain Market at Pier 57 in New York City, a giant food hall with dozens of vendors celebrating street food from cultures around the world.
