Navi Pillay wins Nobel Peace Prize for promoting international law
Original: ICJ judge Navi Pillay wins Nobel peace prize for promoting international law
Navi Pillay, a South African judge at the International Court of Justice, has won the Nobel Peace Prize for her promotion of international law. The Nobel committee also recognised her role chairing a UN commission that concluded Israel was guilty of genocide in Gaza. Pillay previously served as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and was the first woman of colour on the International Criminal Court bench.
Why now: The announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize winner is major global news, made more contentious by the committee's reference to her Gaza genocide findings.
