"Apr 18, 2025
We’re honoured to welcome back Nobel Peace laureate Tawakkol Karman to the One Young World Summit in Munich! 
Called the “Mother of the Revolution,” Tawakkol is a fearless champion for democracy, human rights, and the freedom of expression. A leading voice of the Arab Spring, her courage has echoed far beyond Yemen, inspiring movements for justice around the world.
She is a journalist, activist, and founder of Women Journalists Without Chains and has been an invaluable part of our Community since her first Summit in Bogota in 2017. Honored by TIME as a Torchbearer of the Arab Spring and one of the most influential women of the century, her voice has ignited movements, challenged regimes, and inspired young leaders around the globe."
