The world’s most dangerous place for women
“My daughter will be a role model, a light for other children. I promised that when she was born,” says the father of Nouria, 12, from Afghanistan – the world’s most dangerous country for women. Unlike countless other Afghani girls, Nouria’s father supports her love of learning. And thanks to World’s Children’s Prize Laureate, Dr. Sakena Yacoobi, Nouria can go to school!Sakena Yacoobi has dedicated her life to fight for the rights of girls and women in Afghanistan.
