The book explores her story as well as the stories of girls she meets during her travel in Refugee Camp in Colombia Guatemala, Syria, and Yemen. The purpose of the present research endevour is to throw light on the violence presented in We are Displaced by her. Hence, here it would be worthwhile to talk about Malala and her philosophy, ideology and thought, which is depicted in her speeches, delivered time to time. People have heard her story already, she says, “I thought it was time for people to listen to other girls, stories as well.” Her new book, We are Displaced is a collection of harrowing, heart breaking and ultimately inspiring first – person accounts of the lives of girls she has met in her travels to refugees. In the newspaper, on TV, and it is just in numbers, and it is usually in a negative way. But we do not hear from them especially when it comes to young women and girls.
