Signed into U.S. law in 2021, the Malala Yousafzai Scholarship Act expands access to higher education scholarships for young women in Pakistan. It supports gender equality and quality education by enabling USAID to provide merit- and needs-based scholarships, helping empower marginalized female students. The Act aligns with global Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 4 and SDG 5), promoting inclusive, equitable education and advancing women’s empowerment as a foundation for sustainable development.
