The Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to three women: Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Leymah Gbowee and Tawakkul Karman "for their non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women’s rights to full participation in peace-building work."
The Norwegian Nobel Committee said the world cannot achieve democracy and lasting peace "unless women obtain the same opportunities as men to influence developments at all levels of society."
Chinese activist Liu Xiaobo won the award last year, while U.S. President Barack Obama was the surpise winner in 2009.
The peace prize has been awarded 98 times to individuals and 23 times to organizations since 1901, according to the group.
The youngest peace laureate was Mairead Corrigan, 32, and the oldest 87-year-old Joseph Rotblat.
International Committee of the Red Cross has received the peace prize three times, in 1917,1944, and 1963.
