    [1] Najat Belkacem was born on October 4th,


    1977, in a farmhouse in Bni Chiker, a village near
    Nador. Her father, Ahmed, had emigrated to France
    before she was born. She lived with her grandfather
    and she still remembers gathering water and helping
    him with the farm work.
    [2] When Najat was five, her father found a
    permanent job and sent for his wife and daughters to
    join him in 1982. Najat grew up in the suburbs
    of Amiens, France. The little girl felt the shock of
    the new culture. She didn’t speak a word of French.
    “Leaving your country, your roots, can be painful. Najat Belkacem at school

    My father had already found his place, but for us, it


    was really hard,” she says.
    [3] Her father set strict rules: she was forbidden to hang out with friends or to go out to cafés
    before the age of eighteen. As a result, Najat devoted all her time and energy to her studies. By the end of
    her first year, she could read and speak French fluently.

    [4] She received French citizenship shortly before


    joining university as a law student. It was there that she
    discovered the prestigious Paris Institute of Political Studies.
    She took the entrance exam and passed. At the institute library,
    she met Boris Vallaud whom she married later. The couple has
    followed similar paths into government. “It’s very nice to have
    a husband who moves in the same world as I do,” she says.

    [5] In March 2008, she was elected ‘Conseillère


    Générale’ of the Rhône department. On May 16th, 2012, she
    was appointed to French President François Hollande’s cabinet
    as Minister of Women’s Rights and Spokesperson for the
    th
    government. On August 25 , 2014, she became the first woman to be appointed Minister of Education
    and Research in France.
    [6] Najat has proved that there are no boundaries to what you can achieve if you work hard. Her
    story reminds us that immigrants are valuable human capital. If we believe in them and invest in them
    with the right education, there are no limits to what they can achieve.
