imagination of people across the globe but not just self i thought yeah maybe but maybe not i wasn't entirely sure but i think this combination that was announced today really works well i'm very happy for her what do you think nadia has contributed to raising awareness about sexual violence and conflict well if you think about what happened to her you know those three months and i yes captivity starting in two thousand and fourteen i mean if you really look at what happened to her and she's very blunt and open about it she was sold like cattle she was burned with cigarette butts she was raped and gang raped and treated like a piece like a thing not like a human being and then she managed to escape she ended up being smuggled into a refugee camp and then you know gathering that strength to open up and to really go public because rape is special gang rape is also associated with shame especially in the u.c.d. community. which is rather conservative community then you know coming to germany

and making the choice to write a book about it to become a goodwill ambassador of the united nations speaking in front of the european parliament we lift that trauma again and again with each and every single interview that she gives sometimes i wonder isn't that a bit too much for such a young women i mean she's only like in her twenty's but she says you know i'm not a victim i'm a survivor and as a survivor i need to let my voice to others because we're talking about if we only look at the yazidi community of roughly seven thousand people who suffered this fate about how for them are still unaccounted for in captivity and if you look around the globe we're talking tens of thousands of women who have suffered the same being used as a weapon in war and you revisit the yazidi community this year how much has the sexual violence that was perpetrated against them really shaped this community and as it tries to recover it is the communities that experience genocide you know it

was a genius sidle campaign too in the late community and also is the face of that she once together with her lawyer clooney and you know take those ones who perpetrated this chino site to be taken to an international court she's thinking about the united nations special tribunal because as of now no one has been you know accused and then also convicted of genocide and of the faith that the especially the women had to suffer from the time that you've spent in this community how important do you think this prize is for them i mean when we were there we met a women who had stressed return from captivity after four years she was so fresh i just imagine you are held captive for four years and being a victim of rape almost every single day and being sold what does that do to you how can you ever live a normal life again. but those voices must not be silent they must be heard and

nothing not you're more right has taken it upon herself to be the voice of these women who are also by this that is exactly the message that the nobel committee said they wanted to send with a warning this price to not be a mirage or a centerpiece month thank you very much well let's talk now about the other laureate that we have something a lot just with us from the africa desk as she joins us from boston we're talking about dennis mccuaig of the other laureate here something thanks for joining us now dennis mccuaig a has been honored by the u.n. many other organizations in the past for his work he's been called dr americal did this announcement come as a surprise to you it's not a surprise actually i was very happy that finally dennis will quit has been you know named and has been given this prize this time around you know that he has been favorite. i mean like people have been speculating for quite a long time that he should be given this this prize he has been named still

miracle because he is a believer he is he has been fighting against sexual violence for quite a long time and to you know about his. own vision he founded his hospital in one thousand nine hundred nine and that hospital actually was founded because he has seen misery of many women being suffering with lung without being helped and for that reason i think he deserves in this prize put to today it has been noted surprised but it has been a great moment for not only him but khamenei people who are fighting against against sexual violence some to tell us more about his life and how he came to do this work. dennison macwhich actually was born in one thousand nine hundred fifty five he was the third of nine children he studied medicine but

he studied medicine because he wanted to help women who are giving birth and having trouble in giving both but in one thousand nine hundred nine he saw the need of women getting not only trouble in giving birth but their gang raped and they were not having help from anyone so the very first case i remember he has been talking about it was just a few meters away from his hospital where this woman was gang raped and he took her and he operated her and he took this as a mission for him to help as many women who are used as a weapon of war i mean sexual violence as weapon of war so that they can you know they can be living a life full of hope and people have have they have been seeing him as a hope as

a person who is whole can give them back the life that they're supposed to be living and he's also someone who's been a very vocal advocate for this for these women he has repeatedly accused the world of failing to act on sexual violence do you think awarding him this nobel peace prize and not be a mirage will change anything about how about how the world approaches sexual violence against women. i would hope that this would change because i mean this gives also motivation for him to say that the joke that he has been doing for all these years is not in vain and also it will it's a wakeup call to many not only you know authorities in different countries in africa but all over the world that six of our of our own that violence is not something that we should you know like close our eyes to we have to open our eyes we have to listen to the stories and also help the people that we think that

they're victims of sexual violence and we shouldn't use sexual violence. in different ways as you know impunity as a power as as a as a as a as a weapon for anything for that reason i think it's not if it's not going to change the mentality then it will change also the way people see those cases right dennis mckechnie one of the congress one of the two sorry nobel laureates of this year of congress going to college less than a simple lot us from our africa desk in bonn thank you so much for your analysis thank you. now to some other stories making news around the world french police have opened an investigation into the disappearance of men hong way the head of interpol his family and friends hasn't heard from men since he left for china at the end of last month neither chinese authorities nor interpol are commenting publicly on this case. a week after
