She was famous for her defense of human rights, especially education and women's rights, in the Swat Valley region, in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, northwest Pakistan, where her region was suffering from an attempt to ban the Pakistani Taliban from going to schools, and she got the support of parents from going to schools. Yousafzai's family had a chain of schools that she ran in the area. In early 2009, 12-year-old Malala wrote a blog post under a pseudonym for the BBC about the details of her life under the control of the Pakistani Taliban for the region, who were trying to control the valley, and her view of the state of girls' education in Swat and ways to develop it. The following summer, journalist Adam Elek presented in the New York Times a documentary about her life during the Pakistani army's intervention in the region. Malala's reputation has spread throughout the world; That is why she was given many television and written interviews, and was nominated for the International Children's Peace Prize by the South African activist Desmond Tutu.
