Democracy Wins...

Oslo: Tunisia's National Dialogue Quartet on Friday won the Nobel Peace Prize 2015 for building democracy in the country.

 

The coalition of civil society organizations was awarded the Prize for the "decisive contribution to the building of a pluralistic democracy in Tunisia in the wake of the Jasmine Revolution of 2011", the Nobel panel said.


The committee said the prize was also intended as an encouragement to other countries to follow in Tunisia's footsteps.



"The Norwegian Nobel Committee hopes that this year's prize will contribute towards safeguarding democracy in Tunisia and be an inspiration to all those who seek to promote peace and democracy in the Middle East, North Africa and the rest of the world," it said.
