Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai has said that she intends to return to Pakistan next year.
While remarking that winning the Nobel peace prize was a great honour for her and her country, Yousafzai said that the prize money will be spent on children's education in Pakistan, reported the Dawn.
She said that she wanted to start by helping her hometown Swat and Shangla as they need secondary schools.
Yousafzai received the Nobel prize along with Indian child rights activist, Kailash Satyarthi.
She survived a Taliban attack when she was 15 after she was shot by gunmen in the head while travelling on a school bus.
