Malala Yousafzai Scholarship Act is a scholarship law of the United States that was originally introduced by the 113th United States Congress on November 19, 2014 after the Senate and the United States House of Representatives passed it in 2020. It is primarily established to allow American educational institutions to increase the number of higher education scholarships based on merit-based and needs-based programs reserved for Pakistani women under the student financial aid program.[1]
Passed in March 2020 and partially enacted on January 1, 2021, it is used to determine and address the scholarship programmes aimed at providing educational fundings for Pakistani women receiving higher education anywhere in the country. It is reportedly made available from 2020 and will continue till 2022 under the Higher Education Commission.[2]
