This Ted Talk is about women's education in Arabian countries and how education can change a life.
Laura Boushnak is an arab photographer who did a project called 'I read I write' driven by her own experience, as she had to fight hard to become who she is today only because of being a woman.
This project consisted on photographing different women, which she had to convince telling them that their example would help many other women in the same situation and encourage them to change it, with a phrase related with their life histories to expose them later.
Laura explains that she travelled to Egypt, Tunez and Yemen where she met four women and got four cases to her project and she remembers and highlights phrases as: "I sought education in order to be independent and to not count on men with everything” and "Question your convictions. Be who you to want to be, not who they want you to be. Don't accept their enslavement, for your mother birthed you free".
