Parwana Malik
Parwana Malik is a young Afghan girl who became a symbol of the fight against child marriage after her father sold her into marriage at the age of nine to a 55-year-old man for a dowry. Her story, which highlighted the dire consequences of poverty and societal norms in Afghanistan, garnered international attention and sparked outrage, leading to intervention by organizations like 'Too Young to Wed' that ultimately rescued her from the marriage and provided her family with support.
