Extractions: S he looks so ordinary that you'd never suspect this middle-aged woman from Vermont is a Nobel Prize in Peace winner. Jody Williams, an activist against landmines in Cambodia, is friendly and down-to-earth. As she greeted the forum of teenagers at Rhodes College Peace Jam, a weekend activity supporting peace and diversity, she listened with genuine interest and concern. After, I talked with her about everything from her background to politics. The most depressing in my view is the government's desire to go to war. They are not listening to American citizens or the other members of the United Nations. Military action could be an alternative, but not the first choice. The United States only says, "We don't care what you think." I don't think anyone wants war.

Extractions: (b. Oct. 9, 1950), American activist who helped found the International Campaign to Ban Landmines and oversaw its worldwide efforts to ban the production, transfer, and deployment of antipersonnel land mines and to effect their removal. In 1997 she and the campaign were named corecipients of the Nobel Prize for Peace In 1984 Williams received a master's degree in international studies at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Md. She was an advocate for influencing U.S. foreign policy in Central America for more than a decade as coordinator of the Nicaragua-Honduras Education Project and as associate director of Medical Aid to El Salvador. By 1991 these interests brought her in contact with the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation, which, along with the German-based group Medico International, launched the International Campaign to Ban Landmines in 1992, naming Williams as the campaign coordinator. In five years under her leadership, the campaign expanded into a coalition of about 1,000 nongovernmental organizations from more than 50 nations. During this time Williams lectured widely on the dangers of land mines, publicizing the presence of about 110 million unexploded land mines in about 68 nations and the minefield casualty rate of some 26,000 people a year, primarily civilians. One of the highlights of her tenure came in September 1997 in Oslo, Nor., when 89 nations adopted a comprehensive treaty banning antipersonnel land mines. The treaty, which was estimated to become effective by the end of the century, called for the banning of the development, trade, and use of the weapons, as well as for the destruction of active land mines and existing stockpiles.

Extractions: Coordinator of International Campaign To Ban Landmines Ottawa, Canada December 3, 1997 It has been my privilege and sometimes my pleasure, not always my pleasure, to coordinate this campaign since its inception at the end of 1991 and early 1992, when we were a handful of organizations. This work came out of the field. These were the the de-miners, the people putting limbs on the victims, who were trying to deal with the problem in the field and recognized pretty quickly that that wasn't enough. If we didn't go to the root of the problem, if we didn't remove the weapon itself, we would never succeed. So we came together and formed the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, which was formally launched in 1992. I have done an awful lot of interviews in the last few weeks, and I am always asked if we expected this. Certainly not! Who would have expected that within such a short time the governments of the world would have responded to a band of NGOs calling for a ban on the weapon in widespread use, a weapon that most military don't think about as different from all the other weapons they use it's just another one in the arsenal. It wasn't until the voice of civil society was raised to such a high degree that governments began to listen, that change began to move the world, with lighting and unexpected speed.

Extractions: Coordinator of International Campaign To Ban Landmines/Nobel Peace Prize 1997 December 10, 1997 at Oslo City Hall, Oslo, Norway Your Majesties, Honorable Members of the Nobel Committee, Excellencies and Honored Guests: It is a privilege to be here today, together with other representatives of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, to receive jointly the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize. Our appreciation goes to those who nominated us and to the Nobel Committee for choosing this year to recognize, from among so man y other nominees who have worked diligently for peace, the work of the International Campaign. I am deeply honored-but whatever personal recognition derives from this award, I believe that this high tribute is the result of the truly historic achievement of this humanitarian effort to rid the world of one indiscriminate weapon. In the words of the Nobel Committee, the International Campaign "started a process which in the space of a few years changed a ban on antipersonnel mines from a vision to a feasible reality." Further, the Committee noted that the Campaign has been able to "express and mediate a broad range of popular commitment in an unprecedented way. With the governments of several small and medium-sized countries taking t he issue up...this work has grown into a convincing example of an effective policy for peace."

http://www.cdi.org/adm/1226/williams.html

Extractions: Rachel Stohl WILLIAMS: where I am. Okay, obviously one of the strengths, the greatest strengths, of the campaign to ban landmines is the fact that we achieved a treaty banning the use, production, trade, and stockpiling of anti-personnel landmines. Another tremendous accomplishment is that we did it in record time. We did it outside of the normal diplomatic channels which made it possible. If it had been negotiated in Geneva in the CD, the Conference on Disarmament, we would not have the treaty we have today. That, all by itself, is a fabulous accomplishment. Another really important accomplishment of the campaign is the fact that we did it, in concert, if you will, with governments. Smaller and middle sized governments, you know, the middle powers, that want to do things differently in the post-Cold War period. We worked in open partnership with them and that's an unusual thing. And, those are both pretty fabulous.
