My survival case comes with a purpose and obligation, which is why I have launched Nadia's Initiative, an organisation dedicated to helping women and children who have been victimised... My initiative is trying to get support needed to get Sinjar rebuilt.

Nadia Murad

The world has only one border. It is called humanity. The differences between us are small compared to our shared humanity. Put humans first.

Nadia Murad

It never gets easier to tell your story. Each time you speak it, you relive it.

Nadia Murad

I will go back to my life when women in captivity go back to their lives, when my community has a place, when I see people accountable for their crimes.

Nadia Murad

We must not only imagine a better future for women, children, and persecuted minorities; we must work consistently to make it happen - prioritizing humanity, not war.

Nadia Murad

I have the responsibility to translate peace and stability for future generations.

Nadia Murad

It is unacceptable for a woman to be rescued from captivity from ISIS to come and not have a place to live, to be put in refugee camps.

Nadia Murad

Every time I tell my story, I feel that I am taking some power away from the terrorists.

Nadia Murad

I was only one of hundreds of thousands of Yazidi victims.

Nadia Murad

World leaders and, particularly, Muslim religious leaders need to stand up and protect the oppressed.

Nadia Murad

The hope of ISIS was to break the Yazidi community. But for survivors especially, going back to their lives and getting married and making a life and working, it's basically making sure ISIS did not succeed.

Nadia Murad

I lived my childhood as a village girl in Kojo, south of Sinjar region. I did not know anything about the Nobel Peace Prize.

Nadia Murad

Justice is the only way to achieve peace and co-existence among the various components of Iraq.

Nadia Murad

We have to work together in order to prove that genocidal campaigns will fail and lead to accountability of the perpetrators and bring justice for survivors.

Nadia Murad

I want to be the last girl in the world with a story like mine.

Nadia Murad

Everyone was poor. We were satisfied with a life that was simple and humble. We were a peaceful, open people.

Nadia Murad

Every day, I feel like it's the day I was freed from Daesh. Every time I speak about my story, I feel like it's the day I was liberated.

Nadia Murad

I want to create a family with my fiance and be able to live a simple life and just be safe.

Nadia Murad

My survival case comes with a purpose and obligation, which is why I have launched Nadia's Initiative, an organisation dedicated to helping women and children who have been victimised... My initiative is trying to get support needed to get Sinjar rebuilt.

Nadia Murad

Whenever Daesh loses territory, of course this brings me happiness.

Nadia Murad

There should be no place for terrorism and extremist ideas in post-ISIS Iraq. We must join forces in building our country; we must contribute together to achieve security, stability, and prosperity for the benefit of all Iraqis.
