An Evening with Malala Yousafzai

Thrust onto the public stage at fifteen years old after the Taliban’s brutal attack on her life, Malala Yousafzai quickly became an international icon known for bravery and resilience. But away from the cameras and crowds, she spent years struggling to find her place in an unfamiliar world.

Now, for the first time ever, Malala takes us beyond the headlines in her new book, Finding My Way — a vulnerable, surprising memoir that buzzes with authenticity, sharp humour, and tenderness.

Much of the book takes place at the University of Oxford, where Malala found friendship and first love, experienced the challenges of anxiety and PTSD, and the joy of self-discovery. Through candid moments like nearly failing exams, getting ghosted and meeting the love of her life, Malala reminds us that real role models aren’t perfect — they’re human.

On November 3, Malala returns to Oxford. Live from the iconic Sheldonian Theatre, join us to hear her reclaim the story of her own life.
