Johnson Sirleaf, Africa’s first democratically elected female president, shared the award with fellow Liberian Leymah Gbowee, who has confronted her country’s armed forces over the use of rape as a weapon, and Tawakkul Karman, who began pushing for change in Yemen long before the Arab Spring. They share a 10-million kronor ($1.5-million) prize.
