Hello,
I just received a mail about a avaaz campaign that may interest some of
you on this list.
From [1] :
The young women were heading home from college in Pakistan when
terrorists firebombed their school bus, burning 14 of them alive. The
survivors were rushed to the hospital, where another bomb went off,
injuring their friends and the nurses who came to help.
Sometimes out of the deepest darkness come our brightest lights. In the
face of this horror, 15-year-old Malala has dared to campaign for girls
education in Pakistan. She was shot in the head for it last year, but
she survived, and with almost 1 million of us behind her, she helped win
a new government policy to put all Pakistani girls in school!
But she's not stopping there. On Friday, Malala will speak at the UN to
propose a new global goal: to put every child on the planet in school.
Her request is shockingly doable -- with experts saying it would cost
the same as just two nuclear power plants! We have just hours left --
let's show world leaders that Malala has millions of us behind her as
she appeals to them to act, and turn Taliban horror into powerful new
hope -- education for all.
