童年的世界观与早期倡导
小时候，我曾以为改变世界是一件简单的事。我会将所有问题告诉负责人，然后他们就会解决。如今听起来多么天真，但在我九、十岁的时候，这对我来说是合乎逻辑的。我住在巴基斯坦一个偏远的山区，总理远在百里之外的首都，他看不到我们河流被垃圾污染，看不到我们破损的校车，也看不到那些设备陈旧的医院。我确信，只要能引起我们领导人的注意，他们就能解决所有这些问题。

When I was a child, I thought changing the world was simple. I would tell the people in charge all of my problems and they would fix them. I know how naive this sounds now, but at 9 or 10 years old, it made sense to me. I lived in a remote mountainous region of Pakistan. The prime minister was more than 100 miles away from me in the capital city. He couldn't see the trash polluting our rivers or our broken school bus or hospitals with outdated equipment. I was sure that our leaders could solve all of these problems if only I could get their attention.塔利班的崛起与个人觉醒
十一岁时，我面临了人生中最重大、最毁灭性的问题。塔利班控制了我的城镇，并颁布法令，禁止女孩上学。我深知没有教育的未来对我意味着什么：十几岁就结婚，到二十岁时已经有了两三个孩子。这意味着我将别无选择，无法掌控自己的未来。如果我想要引起人们的注意，现在就是时候了。我决定成为一名活动家。我在抗议活动中接受采访，在电视上发声。我为BBC写博客，并出现在《纽约时报》的一部纪录片中。我竭尽所能地联系领导人，寻求他们的帮助。仅仅因为“说出真相”这一罪名，塔利班就试图杀死我。他们近距离向我的脸开枪。那时我十五岁。但感谢许多医生和更多的祈祷，我活了下来。数百万人听到了我的故事。世界各地的总统和总理都想见我。我终于进入了那些做出决策的房间，得以将我和我一样没有机会上学的女孩们的情况引起注意。

At age 11, I faced the biggest, most devastating problem of my life. The Taliban took control of my town and decreed that girls could no longer go to school. I knew what life would be like for me without an education. Marriage in my teens, two or three children by the time I was just 20. It meant I would have no choice, no control of my future. If I was ever going to get people's attention, this was the moment. I decided to become an activist. I gave interviews at protests. I spoke on television. I wrote a blog for the BBC and I appeared in a New York Times documentary. I did everything I could to reach to our leaders and ask for their help. Simply for the crime of speaking out, the Taliban tried to kill me. Shooting me in the face at point-blank range. I was 15 years old. But with the help of many doctors and even more prayers, I survived. Millions of people heard my story. Presidents and prime ministers all over the world wanted to meet me. I was finally in the rooms where decisions were made and I could bring attention to girls like me who did not have the opportunity to be in school.变革的复杂性与信念的动摇
就在那时，我意识到改变世界并非如我最初所想，仅仅是指出问题。你必须为每一次政策变动和预算增加据理力争，可能需要争取尽可能多的人支持，并且可能需要倡导数月甚至数年才能向前迈出一小步。渐渐地，我开始相信改变是缓慢而稳定的。它是渐进的，但值得庆幸的是，它终将到来。我的基石曾是希望与乐观，是相信人们会做正确的事的信念，是相信当领导人说他们关心改善我们的生活时，他们是认真的，即使这比我希望的要慢。然而，有一天，我对进步的信念崩塌了。那是在2021年8月。我当时正在医院，从一次修复我袭击后造成的面部瘫痪的最后一次手术中恢复。我拿起手机，看到塔利班已经控制了阿富汗。我惊呆了，心碎了，恐惧，愤怒。我怎能继续相信事情会好转？当他们将整个国家交给那个用枪指着我头颅并扣动扳机的人时，任何人怎能相信领导人致力于女孩的教育？

And that's when I realized that changing the world wasn't as simple as pointing out the problems. You had to argue for every policy change and budget increase and you might have to get the support of as many people as possible and you might have to advocate for months or even years to take one step forward. Eventually, I came to believe that change was slow but steady. Incremental but thankfully inevitable. My foundation had been hope and optimism. Faith that people would do the right thing. Trust that when leaders said they cared about making our lives better, they meant it even if it took longer than I wished. But then in a single day, my belief in progress shattered. It was August 2021. I was in the hospital recovering from one last surgery to repair the facial paralysis I suffered after the attack. I picked up my phone and saw the Taliban had taken control of Afghanistan. I was stunned, shattered, terrified, angry.性别隔离下的阿富汗现状与行动指南
我如何还能继续相信事情会好转？当他们将整个国家交给那个用枪指着我头颅并扣动扳机的人时，任何人又怎能相信领导人致力于女孩的教育？我从病房里，联系了我认识的几位阿富汗女性活动家，她们当时正在全国各地工作。她们同样感到恐惧。电视上，专家和政客们说塔利班变了，新版本的塔利班不会禁止女孩上学，也不会压迫女性。我与之交谈的阿富汗人并不相信，她们是对的。如今的阿富汗，女孩不能在小学毕业后继续上学，这是犯罪。五年前曾是医生、政治家、工程师和艺术家的女性，现在不允许上大学或从事职业。女性在公共场合发言也是一种罪。但你知道什么不被视为犯罪吗？今年（2026年），塔利班颁布法令，允许男性殴打他们的妻子和女儿。塔利班对数百万妇女和女孩实施了隔离和统治的制度，一种性别隔离。多年来，我以为我人生的意义就是服务于女孩。但在阿富汗事件之后，我童年时作为十一岁活动家的乐观精神消失了。但我不能袖手旁观，因为我太清楚阿富汗女孩正在经历什么。当我看到那些站在学校锁着的校门外的小女孩的照片时，我无法停止思考她们。我知道我们中的许多人今天都感到不知所措和迷失，觉得障碍太大，我们无能为力去解决问题。但在过去的几年里，我学到了很多，我想与你们分享如何在失去希望时继续为改变而战。
Original English
How could I continue to have faith that things would improve? How could anyone believe that leaders were committed to girls' education when they handed over an entire country to the men who pointed a gun at my head and pulled the trigger? From the recovery room, I called Afghan women I knew, activists who were working around the country. They were frightened, too. On TV, experts and politicians were saying that the Taliban had changed, that this new version of the Taliban wouldn't ban girls from school or oppress women. The Afghans I spoke with didn't believe it and they were right. Today in Afghanistan, girls are not allowed to attend school past sixth grade. It is a crime. Women who 5 years ago were doctors, politicians, engineers, and artists are not allowed to go to university or pursue a career. A woman speaking in public is a crime. But do you know what is not considered a crime? This year, in 2026, the Taliban decreed that it is legal for men to beat their wives and daughters. The Taliban have imposed a system of segregation and domination, a gender apartheid on millions of women and girls.韧性与希望：持续行动的三个原则
多年来，我以为我人生的意义就是服务于女孩。在阿富汗事件之后，我童年时作为十一岁活动家的乐观精神消失了。但我不能袖手旁观，因为我太清楚阿富汗女孩正在经历什么。当我看到那些站在学校锁着的校门外的小女孩的照片时，我无法停止思考她们。我知道我们中的许多人今天都感到不知所措和迷失，觉得障碍太大，我们无能为力去解决问题。但在过去的几年里，我学到了很多，我想与你们分享如何在失去希望时继续为改变而战。
首先，你必须从“某事”开始。虽然我无法扭转阿富汗刚刚发生的灾难，但我知道我必须走出病床，找到帮助的方式。我开始支持地下学校，因为阿富汗女孩们并没有放弃学习，即使这意味着冒着生命危险。如今，她们在全国各地收听广播课程，秘密地传递录音带和书籍，并试图在秘密中学习。这远远不是她们应得的教育，但这是一个开始。我学到的第二件事是与他人合作的重要性。这将我带到了一些意想不到的地方，比如电影院和足球场。我制作了两部关于阿富汗的电影：《面包与玫瑰》（Bread and Roses）和《金谷冠军》（Champions of the Golden Valley）。这些影片讲述了阿富汗男女抵抗塔利班压迫的故事。我还加入了阿富汗女子国家足球队的竞选活动，推动国际足联允许她们流亡参赛。塔利班正在抹杀。塔利班正在将女性从公共生活中抹去。但我在这里要做的是与塔利班的意愿背道而驰。因此，我抓住每一个机会，展示阿富汗女性发声、歌唱、踢球，以及为自己的权利站起来。我合作的艺术家和运动员帮助将世界与那些正经历这场危机的女性和女孩联系起来，并连接起“每个生命都具有同等价值”的信念。我的最终课程：保持雄心壮志。我知道，当你处于劣势时，设定高目标听起来可能很傻。但斗争越是艰巨，你就越必须大胆。
Original English
For years, I thought the purpose of my life was to serve girls. After Afghanistan, the optimism I had as an 11-year-old activist was gone. But I couldn't walk away because I knew exactly what Afghan girls were going through. When I saw pictures of little girls standing outside the locked gates of their schools, I could not stop thinking about them. I know many of us feel overwhelmed and lost today. Like the obstacles are too big and there's little we can do to fix the problem. But there's a lot I have learned over the past few years and I want to share with you how to keep fighting for change when you have lost hope. First, you have to start with something. While I couldn't undo the catastrophe that had just happened in Afghanistan, I knew I had to get out of my hospital bed and find a way to help. I started by supporting underground schools because the Afghan girls are not giving up on learning even if it means risking their lives. Across the country today, they are listening to lessons on the radio, discreetly passing cassette tapes and books to each other, and trying to keep studying in secret. It is far from the education that they deserve, but it's a start. The second thing I learned is the importance of working with others. And that has led me to some unexpected places like movie theaters and football fields. I have produced two films about Afghanistan, Bread and Roses and Champions of the Golden Valley. Stories of Afghan men and women who are resisting the Taliban's oppression. And I have joined the campaign of Afghan women's national football team to push FIFA to allow them to compete in exile. The Taliban are erasing. The Taliban are erasing women from public life. But I am here to do the opposite of what the Taliban want. That is why I am taking every opportunity to show Afghan women speaking, singing, kicking a ball, and standing up for their rights.追求正义与不懈奋斗
塔利班正在抹杀。塔利班正在将女性从公共生活中抹去。但我在这里要做的是与塔利班的意愿背道而驰。因此，我抓住每一个机会，展示阿富汗女性发声、歌唱、踢球，以及为自己的权利站起来。我合作的艺术家和运动员帮助将世界与那些正经历这场危机的女性和女孩联系起来，并连接起“每个生命都具有同等价值”的信念。我的最终课程：保持雄心壮志。我知道，当你处于劣势时，设定高目标听起来可能很傻。但斗争越是艰巨，你就越必须大胆。阿富汗发生的事情是对我们所有人的警示，因为塔利班对女性和女孩的残暴并非始于2021年。他们在一 O年前的巴基斯坦就试图让我噤声，在我出生前，他们就在阿富汗部分地区阻止女孩上学。然而，我们没有反对性别隔离的国际法，也没有任何方法追究施暴者及其同情者的责任。这就是为什么阿富汗女性正在倡导，希望将这些虐待行为纳入联合国的“反人类罪”条约。我加入了这场运动，以确保我们能为世界各地的女性和女孩改变现状。我知道这可能需要很多年才能看到塔利班被绳之以法。但我将继续战斗，以免这些罪行发生在下一代女孩身上，无论她们身在何处。当我回想起我曾经的那个十一岁女孩时，我希望她能为今天的我感到骄傲。我希望她知道，虽然改变世界不像她想象的那么简单，但我不会放弃。
Original English
The Taliban are erasing. The Taliban are erasing women from public life. But I am here to do the opposite of what the Taliban want. That is why I am taking every opportunity to show Afghan women speaking, singing, kicking a ball, and standing up for their rights. Because the artists and athletes that I work with help connect the world to the women and girls who are living through this crisis and to the belief that every life carries equal worth. My final lesson. Stay ambitious. I know it might sound foolish to be setting high goals when you are losing a battle. But the bigger the fight, the bolder you have to be. What is happening in Afghanistan is a wake-up call for all of us because the Taliban's cruelty against women and girls did not begin in 2021. They tried to silence me a decade earlier in Pakistan and before I was even born, they were stopping girls from school in parts of Afghanistan. Yet, we have no international laws against gender apartheid, no way to hold the perpetrators and their sympathizers accountable. That is why Afghan women are campaigning to add these abuses to the UN's crime against humanity treaty. And I have joined this movement to ensure that we change things for women and girls everywhere. It is a big goal. I know it may take many years to see the Taliban brought to justice. But I will keep fighting so that these crimes are not committed against another generation of girls anywhere in the world.变革的真相：希望是创造而非等待
当我想到我曾经的那个十一岁女孩时，我希望她能为今天的我感到骄傲。我希望她知道，虽然改变世界不像她想象的那么简单，但我不会放弃。这就是真相。我没有关于如何改变世界的全部答案，也不相信任何人有。如果我学到了任何东西，那就是进步从未被保证。没有一个演讲、一个故事、一个时刻或一个人能够独自弯曲历史的轨迹。但是，如果我们从某事开始，共同努力，并保持雄心壮志，希望就不再是我们等待去感受的东西，而是我们创造出来的东西。谢谢。
