\u201c<\/strong>Leading women to fight for peace was what I was meant to do with my life.\u201d<\/strong>
\nLeymah Gbowee was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize<\/a> after organizing Liberian women to stand up and protest against the devastating civil wars that had plagued the country for years. She realized that peace was about more than an end to fighting; it was also about building a sustainable peace. And here women played a crucial role, since it was women who kept the society going while men were fighting the wars. Her campaigning helped bring an end to the civil war, and to the replacement of warlord Charles Taylor with the democratically elected Ellen Johnson Sirleaf<\/a> as president.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur main goal as educators is to make sure kids maintain their enthusiasm\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

As a student, Martin Chalfie became convinced that science was not for him because he thought you had to be able to do everything by yourself. Then he learned that science takes teamwork. He also learned that failure should be seen as an opportunity for learning. After receiving the Nobel Prize<\/a> for his work on green fluorescent protein, Chalfie became engaged in the Committee on Human Rights of the United States National Academy of Sciences. From that position, he works on behalf of scientists who \u201cwould be at risk because of expressing their human rights that are embodied in the universal declaration of human rights\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIntolerance has become the reigning ideology of the world today\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wole Soyinka is a novelist, playwright, and poet. His works are often rooted in his native Nigeria and in the Yoruba culture, with its legends, tales and traditions. As a writer, Soyinka would prefer to work in solitude, but he also believes that as a citizen he has a duty to take part in politics and to protest. For this, writers \u201chave one weapon, which is literature, but they also have their responsibilities as a citizen when literature does not seem to suffice\u201d. True to this sentiment, Soyinka has been an outspoken critic of dictatorship and has suffered both imprisonment and exile as a consequence of this. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1986<\/a>.<\/p>\n
