The National Democratic Institute (NDI) honored two champions of democracy Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the Womens League of Burma at an awards luncheon Dec. 15 hosted by NDI Chairman Madeleine K. Albright. Archbishop Tutu received the 18th W. Averell Harriman Democracy Award. The 4th annual Madeleine K. Albright grant went to the Womens League of Burma.

The Womens League is an umbrella organization of 12 womens groups from different Burmese ethnic backgrounds. Established in 1999, the league works for womens empowerment and increased participation by women from all spheres of Burmese society in the countrys democracy movement and the peace and national reconciliation process. A documentary, No Women, No Peace, which premiered at the luncheon, profiled the League and the determined efforts of its founding members.
