@MalalaFund student campaigners Zaynab Abdi and Muzoon Almellehan, refugees from Yemen and Syria respectively, are in
#NYC this week campaigning for their rights to education and against the increasing rates of early, child and forced marriage threatening their generation in crisis settings. “Refugees are the same as other people. We all share the same sun and the same sky,” said Zaynab during their panel at the
#SocialGoodSummit2016. "It is not my fault to have lost my rights, my right to education,” added Muzoon. "We must help all children around the world.” Relocated to the US, Zaynab is now in school with a 4.0 grade point average and is captain of her soccer team. She will be sharing her story this week at the United Nations General Assembly.
