We have made progress in the last couple of decades. We have reduced the number of out-of-
school children by half. We have reduced the number of child labourers by a third. We have reduced
child mortality and malnutrition, and we have prevented millions of child deaths.
But, let us make no mistake, great challenges still remain.
Friends! The biggest challenge or biggest crisis knocking on the doors of humankind is fear and
intolerance.
We have utterly failed our children in imparting an education. An education that gives the
meaning and objective of life. An education that gives a sense of global citizenship among the
youth.
I am afraid that the day is not very far away when the cumulative result of this failure,
will culminate in an unprecedented violence, and that will be suicidal for humankind.
Rights, security, hope can only be restored through education.
Young people like Malala ... I’ve started calling her my daughter Malala not just Malala ... So my
daughter Malala and other daughters including Kayanat.. in fact.. two Kayanats, and Shazia, and
the daughters from Africa, and from all over the world. They are rising up and choosing peace
over violence, tolerance over extremism, and courage over fear.
The solutions are emerging. But these solutions cannot be found in the deliberations in conferences
alone, and cannot be found in prescriptions from a distance.
They lie in small groups and local organisations and individuals, who are confronting with
the problem every day. Even if they remain unacknowledged, unrecognised and unknown to the world the
solution are with them.
