Nobel Peace Prize laureate Nadia Murad endured the Yazidi genocide in Iraq, carried out by the group calling itself Islamic State (IS) in 2014. She was captured by IS militants, forced into slavery and subjected to rape and abuse.

After her escape, Murad has bravely recounted her ordeal to the world to raise awareness about conflict-related sexual violence. She partnered with human rights lawyer Amal Clooney to hold IS accountable and launched Nadia's Initiative to advocate for reparations for survivors.
