The 2011 Nobel Peace Prize has been presented to three women at a ceremony in the Norwegian capital, Oslo.
This year's award was won jointly by Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the president of Liberia, Leymah Gbowee, the Liberian peace activist, and Yemeni pro-democracy campaigner Tawakkol Karman.
They were recognised for their "non-violent struggle" for women's safety and for women's rights to participate in peace-building work.
Emily Buchanan reports.

The Liberian situation, portrayed in the documentary "Pray The Devil Back To Hell,' was a powerful inspiration to me - as a 'western woman.' Taking a stand (or 'sit' as the case may be), using non-violent action, and saying "STOP it" in a motherly manner to the men who were perpetrating the atrocities - this act changed everything for that country, and the world breathed a sigh of relief.
These women have inspired me to take bolder action in my own life, and I am forever grateful.
