Jody Williams was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her work with the International Campaign to Ban Landmines in 1997. She is the chairwoman of the Nobel Women’s Initiative, which was established by the sister Nobel Peace Laureates in 2006. Williams is also the first Nobel Laureate since Jane Addams to teach social work. As a longtime grassroots activist, she urges individuals to take action for a better world. This article includes excerpts from an interview in which Williams shares her insights with social workers, students, and educators about activism, social work, and justice and equality for women
