When Nila Ibrahimi was 13 and living in Kabul, the local government banned girls from singing. She sang anyway, and was part of a protest movement that had the ban reversed. Months later Nila and her family fled to Canada when the Taliban took over Afghanistan. Nila has continued to advocate for the rights of girls in her home country, and in 2024 she won the International Children's Peace Prize. This week she's giving the Gandhi Oration at UNSW.
