This is your first visit to Tanzania. Considering that the Malala Fund began supporting young mothers to return to school in 2022, what inspired your visit this year, and what are your impressions so far?
I started Malala Fund to advocate for every girl’s right to access and complete her education. Tanzania is one of the countries where over 2 million girls are out of secondary school.
