They are accompanied by Jerry White and Liz Bernstein of the ICBL. On the occasion of the Centennial, they have joined approximately 30 Nobel Peace Prize laureates invited by the Nobel Institute to participate in these events. A Nobel Peace Prize Centennial Symposium was held 6-8 December, in which laureates and academics addressed the themes around "The Conflicts of the 20th century and the Solutions for the 21st century." Papers were presented, updates on efforts by laureates given and there was discussion about addressing pressing issues of the day. Presentations were made by Jody Williams and Steve Goose and fellow laureates Norman Borlaug, Kim Dae- Jung, Adolfo Perez Esquivel, John Hume, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Mairead Maguire, Rigoberta Menchu Tum, Jose Ramos-Horta, Joseph Rottblat, Oscar Arias Sanchez, David Trimble, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Lech Walesa, Elie Wiesel and representatives from AFSC, Amnesty International, Medecins Sans Frontieres, ICRC, IFRC, ILO, International Peace Bureau, IPPNW, Pugwash, UNICEF, UNHCR, and other institutions that have received the prize over the years. Jody Williams, speaking on a panel entitled "Militarism and Arms RacesStrengthen Arms Control and Disarmament," noted "I keep hearing that the events of September 11 have changed the world…I’m not so sure September 11 changed the world. Certainly it changed the psyche of people in the United States. But that is not the same as changing the world." She emphasized that the world reacted in the ‘usual fashion’ of using violence to the horrific crime against humanity. "I wonder when the line will be crossed, when patriotism becomes xenophobia….We are told we are going to war to protect civilization and freedom at the same time draconian laws are being passed [in the US]to take away our freedom." She said that while she had visited Ground Zero in New York, and she kept thinking of "our colleagues, who brought us pictures of Grozny, in Chechnya. The whole city is Ground Zero. All of Afghanistan, before the bombing began, was already a Ground Zero."

   Extractions: Rachel Stohl WILLIAMS: where I am. Okay, obviously one of the strengths, the greatest strengths, of the campaign to ban landmines is the fact that we achieved a treaty banning the use, production, trade, and stockpiling of anti-personnel landmines. Another tremendous accomplishment is that we did it in record time. We did it outside of the normal diplomatic channels which made it possible. If it had been negotiated in Geneva in the CD, the Conference on Disarmament, we would not have the treaty we have today. That, all by itself, is a fabulous accomplishment. Another really important accomplishment of the campaign is the fact that we did it, in concert, if you will, with governments. Smaller and middle sized governments, you know, the middle powers, that want to do things differently in the post-Cold War period. We worked in open partnership with them and that's an unusual thing. And, those are both pretty fabulous.

   Extractions: (b. Oct. 9, 1950), American activist who helped found the International Campaign to Ban Landmines and oversaw its worldwide efforts to ban the production, transfer, and deployment of antipersonnel land mines and to effect their removal. In 1997 she and the campaign were named corecipients of the Nobel Prize for Peace In 1984 Williams received a master's degree in international studies at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Md. She was an advocate for influencing U.S. foreign policy in Central America for more than a decade as coordinator of the Nicaragua-Honduras Education Project and as associate director of Medical Aid to El Salvador. By 1991 these interests brought her in contact with the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation, which, along with the German-based group Medico International, launched the International Campaign to Ban Landmines in 1992, naming Williams as the campaign coordinator. In five years under her leadership, the campaign expanded into a coalition of about 1,000 nongovernmental organizations from more than 50 nations. During this time Williams lectured widely on the dangers of land mines, publicizing the presence of about 110 million unexploded land mines in about 68 nations and the minefield casualty rate of some 26,000 people a year, primarily civilians. One of the highlights of her tenure came in September 1997 in Oslo, Nor., when 89 nations adopted a comprehensive treaty banning antipersonnel land mines. The treaty, which was estimated to become effective by the end of the century, called for the banning of the development, trade, and use of the weapons, as well as for the destruction of active land mines and existing stockpiles.

Our appreciation goes to those who nominated us and to the Nobel Committee for choosing this year to recognize, from among so man y other nominees who have worked diligently for peace, the work of the International Campaign. I am deeply honored-but whatever personal recognition derives from this award, I believe that this high tribute is the result of the truly historic achievement of this humanitarian effort to rid the world of one indiscriminate weapon. In the words of the Nobel Committee, the International Campaign "started a process which in the space of a few years changed a ban on antipersonnel mines from a vision to a feasible reality." Further, the Committee noted that the Campaign has been able to "express and mediate a broad range of popular commitment in an unprecedented way. With the governments of several small and medium-sized countries taking t he issue up...this work has grown into a convincing example of an effective policy for peace."

The Norwegian Nobel committee used the occasion to call for support of an international treaty to ban land mines. Following this morning’s announcement Russian President Yeltsin said his country would now support the ban. A month ago the United States declined to join more than 90 other countries in the new land mines treaty. The group winning today’s award was formed six years ago. Jody Williams is a longtime international activist. I talked to her this afternoon from Vermont. PHIL PONCE: Ms. Williams, first of all, congratulations. And what was your reaction when you heard you’d received the Nobel Peace Prize?

    Extractions: May 17, 1998 by Lee Griffin Celebration of the University of Vermont's 194th Commencement ceremony began with joyous shouts, whistles, bagpipe music and a standing ovation, as alumna and Nobel Peace laureate Jody Williams and the platform party entered the indoor tennis facility at Patrick Gym this morning. The rain which forced the ceremony indoors did not dampen the spirits of the graduates and their families, some of whom watched the ceremony on a large projection screen in the adjoining gym. Graduates, families, friends and faculty were welcomed and congratulated by Frank Bolden, chair of the UVM Board of Trustees and an alumnus; Jody Luster, president of the class of 1998; and Judith Ramaley, UVM president. Bolden told the students they were "part of the UVM family. And family, like learning, is forever." His admission that "yes, we will hit you up" for a contribution brought laughter. But, more important than money, he said, would be UVM's pride in welcoming back some of them one day to honor their contributions to the world community. Ramaley introduced Williams as "a maverick, a risk-taker and a true Vermonter." The Commencement speaker and recipient of an honorary Doctor of Laws degree then bowed to the audience and hugged the sign-language interpreter. She asked her parents to stand, because "it took 26 years for them to see me in robes." Williams did not attend her UVM graduation ceremony in 1972.

Forums (CNN) J ody Williams emerged from her two-story wooden home in the hills of Vermont on the morning of October 10 in a black tank top, jeans and bare feet. Only hours before, she had learned that she and her International Campaign to Ban Landmines would share the Nobel Peace Prize for their efforts to eradicate the deadly devices. Journalists were swarming Williams' home, eager to meet the latest peace prize winner. But, true to form, Williams used the occasion not to bask in the glow of having received the world's most coveted prize, but to blast the president of the United States. "I think it's tragic that President Clinton does not want to be on the side of humanity," Williams said of man she calls a "weenie" for refusing to endorse the land mine ban signed by 121 countries in December. Williams was one of the leading forces behind the treaty.
