At 11 years old, Malala Yousafzai began blogging about her life under the Taliban — and she has been speaking out for girls’ education ever since. Malala Fund created Assembly, a digital publication and newsletter to help more girls tell their stories just like Malala. Assembly is a platform for young women around the world to share their thoughts, challenges and accomplishments — and for all of us to learn about this new generation of leaders.

OUR CONTENT

Assembly publishes interviews, essays, poems, illustrations, photos and videos submitted by girls and young women about their lives and the issues they care about. Readers can also find feature stories highlighting girl activists and inspiring women. Assembly is emailed to subscribers' inboxes on the first and third Thursday of every month. Each issue features new articles and sections like “Around the World,” where four girls respond to the same question, and “This moment in history,” which celebrates the contributions of female trailblazers.

Below is an example of one of our previous newsletter issues:
