Leymah Gbowee<\/h5>\n
Leymah Gbowee was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her non-violent efforts to promote peace and her struggle for women\u2019s rights.<\/p>\n
In 1990 civil war broke out in Liberia. Leymah Gbowee underwent training in trauma therapy in order to take care of traumatised child soldiers. In 2002, she organised the grass roots movement, Women of Liberia Mass Action for Peace, which held meetings at which Christian and Muslim women jointly presented a non-violent message of peace. These demonstrations were instrumental in pressuring President Charles Taylor to sign a peace agreement in 2003.<\/p>\n
Leymah Gbowee then spearheaded efforts to mobilise Liberian women to vote for Ellen Johnson Sirleaf in the 2005 presidential elections. This support was a crucial factor in Sirleaf\u2019s election victory. In 2008, Gbowee played a key role in the award-winning documentary film \u201cPray the Devil Back to Hell\u201d on women\u2019s unique struggle during the Liberian civil war.<\/p>\n
