Each day of our week long Women's Leadership Series, The Dominion honours an inspirational female leader. Today we pay homage to...
SHIRIN EBADI!
Why Shirin Ebadi?
Shirin Ebadi is an Iranian lawyer, a former judge and human rights activist and founder of Defenders of Human Rights Center in Iran. On 10 October 2003, Ebadi was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her significant and pioneering efforts for democracy and human rights, especially women's, children's, and refugee rights. She was the first ever Iranian to receive the prize.
“Any person who pursues human rights in Iran must live with fear from birth to death, but I have learned to overcome my fear. ”
