Afghanistan
When bombs started falling on Kabul, this 15 year
old f led with her mother and six siblings to India.
Her father stayed behind, and sends money when
he can. Culturally, her mother cannot work, so their
family has no other source of income.
In Afghanistan she was not allowed to go to school,
but in India she has the freedom to learn, although
she fears that if her father found out, he would
stop her. So she has chosen to remain anonymous.
With an education she sees a future where she can
make her own decisions. Her dream is to become
a fashion designer, not a wife in an arranged marriage
where she is forbidden to work.
Her story is one of millions from the bottom of the
world’s rich list. To read more, and see how you can
