Story note
As a teacher at a girls' school in Shangla, KPK, run by Zindagi Trust and funded by Malala Fund, one day I noticed one of my students was absent on a daily basis. Her friends informed me that she had left school and was being forced to marry. I was shocked, barely in class 6, this young girl being taken out of education and pushed into marriage.
I informed our administrative director, and we decided to visit the child's father after school. We spent nearly four hours engaging in a persuasive conversation, urging him to reconsider his decision. Finally, he agreed to let her complete her education, after 4 hours of discussion.
SHE IS BACK !
