About
Aisha’s sheer determination to be educated made her the first girl, not just in her family but in her village, to go to school. An extraordinary feat considering that until the age of 10, she had never been allowed to go to school.
Told by her father she could only attend school if she mobilized other girls, Aisha managed to convince 5 other girls to come to school with her. Despite never having been to school before, with hard work and dedication, she did well in academics and also participated in nukkad-nataks and drama, going on to become the President of the Child Cabinet.
While visiting her family, during a break from school, she convinced 20 other girls from her community to enroll in school. All of them have now completed their class 8.
