It was the first visit to Ms. Suu Kyi by another Nobel Peace Laureate since she received the award while under house arrest in 1991. Ms. Williams visited Ms. Suu Kyi at her home near Inya Lake in Rangoon, where they discussed the current state of movements toward peace within the country, efforts to meet humanitarian needs and the increasing numbers of landmines being used in the countries internal wars. “There is no way for the SPDC to escape dialogue if we want to achieve a peaceful transition,” said Ms Suu Kyi, who encouraged solidarity and support for the overall process of democratization in Burma. Ms. Williams noted after the meeting, “Outside of the country there is the usual debate about whether outside pressure helps or hinders the dialogue process. On this point Suu Kyi was very clear that pressure both inside and outside the country are critical to bringing about democracy in Burma, and noted that such pressure has already made a difference.”

    Extractions: PSU Hosts The World Peace Conference Six Nobel Peace Prize winners took part in a World Peace Conference hosted by Portland State University in May 2001 dovetailing with a three-day visit by the Dalai Lama. The conference aimed at exploring how spirituality can pave the path to world peace. "We wanted to take advantage of the Dalai Lama's visit," said Gary Alan Spanovich, executive director of the conference. The Dalai Lama, who won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1989, visited Oregon to take part in lectures, workshops and public events in his honor. He spoke about his approach to world peace at a luncheon at the Hilton Hotel in Portland at the same day of the conference but was not able to join the panel discussion at PSU because he was scheduled to meet at that time with members of the local Tibetan community. Instead the Venerable Lhakdor, a religious assistant to the Dalai Lama joined the Nobel Peace laureates. The laureates that participated in the conference are Adolfo Perez Esquivel, architect, sculptor and Nobel Peace Prize winner in 1980 for championing human rights in Argentina and other Latin American countries; Robert K. Musil, executive director of Physicians for Social Responsibility, which shared the 1985 Nobel Peace Prize with International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War; William F. Shulz, executive director of Amnesty International, winner of the 1977 Nobel Peace Prize; Betty Williams, a 1976 Nobel winner for brokering the peace accord in Northern Ireland and Dr. Helen Caldicott, co-founder of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War.

    Extractions: March 2, 2000 Betty Williams, 1976 Nobel Peace Prize winner and president of the World Centers of Compassion for Children (WCCC) will speak at Butler on Thursday, March 2. Williams's quest for peace all began on August 10, 1976 in Belfast, Northern Irelandwhen her neighbor, Anne Maguire, was taking a walk with her three children. A sky-blue Ford, whose driver had been killed by six gunshots, hit the family. Joanna, 8, and Andrew, 6 weeks were killed instantly. The crash fatally wounded their brother John, 2, and left their mother with a broken pelvis and broken legs. Williams witnessed the accident. Appalled by the deaths of the three children, she immediately began a petition to rid her community of the violence and fear caused by the IRA and the British of civil war-torn Northern Ireland. William's peace movement quickly spread throughout Belfast. Two days after the deaths of the three children, Williams read her petition, containing over 6,000 signatures on local television.

    Extractions: In 1976, along with Mairead Corrigan Maguire, Williams was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. The women founded the Community of Peace People, an organization born from a tragic accident in Belfast in 1976: A family of four was run down by an out-of-control car driven by an Irish Republican Army gunman shot dead while fleeing from British soldiers. Two children were killed, a third child later died from injuries and the mother was critically injured. Williams, a housewife, arrived at the scene after she heard the gunshot; Corrigan Maguire was the aunt of the dead children. The women joined forces to bring together Protestants and Catholics calling for an end to the fighting in Northern Ireland. Williams moved to the United States in 1981, began lecturing worldwide on peace and in 1997 founded World Centers of Compassion for Children (WCCC), which she serves as president. Florida-based WCCC, which has 11 other offices worldwide, unites Nobel laureates such as Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama, world leaders and ordinary citizens to battle war and acts of terrorism, drug abuse, physical abuse, starvation, exploitation and other atrocities against children.

The driver is killed and the car, now out of control, mounts the pavement crushing to death all three Maguire children.

Going from door to door, she soon collected 6,000 signatures, then appeared on television two days after the deaths to present the petition. At the funeral for the Maguire children Betty and Mairead joined forces and agreed to work for peace.

    Extractions: III. Alfred Nobel And The Nobel Prizes Alfred Nobel is the man who invented dynamite. He is better known today, however, as the man who established some of the most prestigious prizes in the world. Born in 1833 in Stockholm, Sweden, Nobel from his youth had a dream of inventing an explosive so devastating it would deter humans from making war. Instead, his invention made war easier. Though he was a Swede by birth, he was very much an international man, being educated in St. Petersburg, Russia, where his family moved when he was a child. In St. Petersburg, he studied with private tutors, particularly showing interest in chemistry and languages. He mastered Swedish, Russian, English, French, and German. At the age of 17 he began two years of educational travel throughout Germany, France, Italy and to the United States. Then at the age of 19 he became a chemist, working with his father in St. Petersburg. The family returned to Sweden and in 1863 he was a chemist in his father's explosives factory at Heleneborg near Stockholm. In 1864 Nobel received a patent covering detonating charges and percussion caps. Called "The Nobel Igniter," it was to be called at a later time "the greatest discovery ever made in both the principle and practice of explosives." His 1866 invention of dynamite revolutionized mining, road building and tunnel blasting. In 1875 a later improvement was patented as blasting gelatine. In 1887 he patented ballistite, the first of the nitroglycerine smokeless powders. This was to serve as the basis for cordite which was eventually to change the use of firearms.

    Extractions: Three children were killed by a Irish (IRA) gunman's car fleeing British soldiers. This senseless tragedy was a part of the ongoing violence in Northern Ireland between Catholic and Protestant extremists. Two women, Betty Williams, who came upon the scene, and Mairead Corrigan, the aunt of the children, led marches in which Protestants and Catholics walked together to demonstrate against violence. Many people in Northern Ireland recognized that violence would not bring social justice, but Williams and Corrigan had the courage to take the first step. At the presentation of their Nobel Peace Prize in 1976, it was said, "In the name of humanity and love of their neighbor; someone had to start forgiving... [and] shine forth when hatred and revenge threaten to dominate." Betty Williams emigrated to the United States, where she taught and lectured. Mairead Corrigan Maguire continued to carry the message of non-violence to other countries. Making Peace in Northern Ireland is a book about them for ages 9-12.
