Upon receiving the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize, Tawakkol Karman became the first female Arab recipient, and the youngest Peace Laureate in history (remaining the second youngest to date). A co-founder of the group ‘Women Journalists Without Chains’, she became the international public face of the 2011 Yemeni uprising that constituted part of the Arab Spring, and has been called ‘Mother of The Revolution’ and ‘Iron Woman’. She has recently vowed with other Laureates and global leaders to end child slavery.
