Malala Yousafzai has become a global symbol of peaceful protest in her campaign for girls' education. But she is also a teenager, a 16 year old girl who likes music and is teased by her brothers. She joins Jane to talk about the girl behind the headlines. Women have made their mark in 2013. Laura Bates, Caroline Criado-Perez and Reni Eddo-Lodge discuss the issues that unite and divide feminists, and their hopes for the year ahead. This week's drama, Hester, is based on the novel by Mrs Oliphant. Kate Clanchy and Zena Forster discuss her work.

The poet Kate Tempest performs the Teen's Speech. How to be happy after divorce: extracts from our phone-in programme with some of your experiences. We remember Elizabeth Jane Howard, acclaimed author of The Cazalet Chronicles, who died on 2 January. And there's music from Chloe Howl, the 18-year old pop star and BBC Sound Of 2014 nominee.
