Malala Yousafzai, the young Muslim woman shot by Taliban militants in 2012, speaks out boldly in defence of women’s rights and girls’ rights (see pp. 4-5)

Aftab Malik reflects on our responsibility toward alienated young Australian Muslims who crave respect for themselves and their religion (pp. 5-6)

Lack of respect for the other fuels violence – we share reports on the crisis in Egypt (p. 7)
