After four years of devastating war, the people of Yemen demand peace. It is women who are the most-affected by the war and their voices need to be heard in the peace negotiations. We, as the Women for Yemen Network, call for women to be represented in peace talks, starting with the upcoming meeting in Sweden this December. We call on the international community to put pressure on all parties to the conflict in Yemen to ensure that women are present at the peace talks. When women’s voices are included, a more lasting peace is secured.

It is not a luxury or redundant to talk about global governance and its necessity. Rather, it is an imperative need to cope with challenges and threats to our coexistence and destiny on this small planet whose climate and biodiversity are in jeopardy, said the activist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Tawakkol Karman. 

The Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Tawakkol Karman, took part today in the memorial service for Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, who was killed early last month at his country’s consulate in Istanbul.

Istanbul (AFP) - Around 200 people on Sunday gathered in Istanbul to honour the memory of murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

The war on Yemen is being conducted in a systematic way to exterminate the Yemeni people and their homeland, said the Nobel Peace laureate Tawakkol Karman,

Nobel Laureate activist Karman, "Yemen is experiencing pain in the world that is not experienced. Hunger, there affects 14 million people. This constitutes almost half of the people there." said.

An Istanbul conference has supported international calls to stop the war in Yemen and withdraw weapons from various armed militias.

Yemen is facing one of the biggest humanitarian crises in history and the international community made a mistake by giving a freehand to Saudi Arabia and the UAE, stated Tawakkol Karman, renowned Yemeni human rights activist and the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize winner.

The death of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi must now galvanise greater scrutiny of Saudi Arabia’s military intervention in Yemen, where a coalition led by the kingdom is fighting Houthi rebels, said Yemeni Nobel laureate and human rights advocate Tawakkol Karman.

Almost about two weeks after his disappearance in his country’s Istanbul-based consulate, the Nobel Peace Prize laureate and human rights activist Tawakkol Karman revealed her latest contact with the Saudi dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
