This year’s Nobel diploma was revealed at an event arranged by the Nobel Peace Center on October 06. The peace prize laureate will receive an artwork by the famous Norwegian artist Håkon Bleken, showing a man and a woman embracing each other.
in October 6, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2023 to the human rights defender Narges Mohammadi from Iran. She is awarded the prize for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran and her fight to promote human rights and freedom for all, the Norwegian Nobel Committee said.
In addition to the prize money and the gold medal, she will receive a Nobel diploma. The diplomas motif changes every year, and this year’s motif was revealed at an event organized by the Nobel Peace Center on Saturday. The artwork was made before the name of the laureate was known, the chair of the Norwegian Nobel Committee Berit Reiss-Andersen said.
“The artwork we have chosen shows a man and woman embracing each other. Does that make peace? Hopefully”, she said. Narges Mohammadi is imprisoned in Iran, and she will most likely not be able to attend the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony in Oslo in December. But she will never give up, said her brother, Hamidreza Mohammadi, who took part in the event Saturday.
“Every time she gets arrested, she is more decisive. She totally believes in human rights and that every individual has rights that no government can take away from him or her”, he said.
Iranian author Asieh Amini and the journalist Maloud Hajizadeh, who live in Norway, also took part in the event, together with Member of Parliament in Norway Mahmoud Farahmand.
