THE NOBEL FOUNDATION Nobel Lecture by Betty Williams Nobel Peace Prize 1976 December 11, 1977 at Oslo City Hall, Oslo, Norway I stand here today with a sense of humility, a sense of history, and a sense of honour. I also stand here in the name of courage to give name to a challenge. I feel humble in officially receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, because so many people have been involved in the campaign that drew such attention to our leadership that an award like this could justifiably be made. Mairead Corrigan and I may take some satisfaction with us all the days of our lives that we did make that initial call, a call which unlocked the massive desire for peace within the hearts of the Northern Irish people, and as we so soon discovered, in the hearts of people around the world not least in Norway, the generosity of whose people to our cause is the main reason for our current ability to expand our campaign. But unlocking the desire for peace would never have been enough. All the energy, all the determination to express an overwhelming demand for an end to the sickening cycle of useless violence would have reverberated briefly and despairingly among the people, as had happened so many times before if we had not organised ourselves to use that energy and that determination positively, once and for all. So in that first week Mairead Corrigan, Ciaran McKeown and I founded the Movement of the Peace People, in order to give real leadership and direction to the desire which we were certain was there, deep within the hearts of the vast majority of the people, and deep even within the hearts of those who felt, perhaps still do, feel obliged, to oppose us in public.

An Irish Republican Army terrorist was shot by British troops while fleeing in a car; the car went out of control and struck several people, killing three children. Williams immediately began circulating petitions In 1978 Williams and Corrigan resigned their positions of leadership in the Community and by 1980 had become estranged.

GREGORY R. SMITH "An Evening of Unity" with Archbishop Tutu and Betty Williams HOME December 6, 1999 Greg and Nobel Peace Laureates Betty Williams and Archbishop Desmond Tutu 2 Nobel Laureates urge racial harmony in South Florida By LEON FOOKSMAN Sun-Sentinel Web-posted: 12:05 a.m. Dec. 6, 1999 DELRAY BEACH The hand-clapping choirs sang and stomped their feet, their voices rising into the night over the city's stadium. Then came the colorful, feather-clad Native Americans who danced across the stage to a pulsating drumbeat. They provided the backdrop Sunday for an "Evening of Unity" that featured two Nobel Peace Prize laureates issuing a call for racial harmony and understanding in South Florida's divided communities. "We have to stand up against injustice and oppression and all kinds of evil that flows from that," retired Anglican Archbishop Desmond Tutu told about 3,500 people gathered at the Delray Tennis Center to hear him and fellow Nobel laureate Betty Williams. "You're going to have to dream, dream, dream and say we want to reach out to the skies," Tutu added, "for the skies are unlimited." Introducing him was Williams, an Irish Catholic now living in Western Delray Beach who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1977 for her work trying to defuse that region's decades-long troubles. Sunday's show was an effort to raise money for her international child advocacy group.

The purpose of the Summit was to adopt the Universal Declaration of the Rights of the World’s Children. The Declaration was unanimously endorsed by the delegates, who included many First Ladies and representatives of children’s organizations worldwide.

Together they founded the Community of Peace People, an organization which is still involved in the betterment of life in Northern Ireland. But, as Mrs. Williams herself has said many times, the Nobel Peace Prize is not awarded for what one has done but for what one will do. She has traveled the globe recording the testimonies of children who have been subjected to horrors beyond belief. It is evident to Mrs. Williams that governmental legislative changes must be implemented in the direction of the protection of children.
