Plenary Session and Public Address
4:30 p.m.-5:30 p.m.
Explore youth service as a force that spans cultural and national boundaries. Don't miss Shirin Ebadi. Ebadi was awarded the 2003 Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts to promote human rights, in particular, the rights of women, children, and political prisoners in Iran. She is the first Muslim woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, and only the fifth Muslim to receive a Nobel Prize in any field. Ebadi was one of the first female judges in Iran.Peace,
