The Center for Civil Liberties, Memorial and Ales Bialiatski shared the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize. According to the official motivation, “The Peace Prize laureates represent civil society in their home countries. They have for many years promoted the right to criticise power and protect the fundamental rights of citizens. They have made an outstanding effort to document war crimes, human right abuses and the abuse of power. Together they demonstrate the significance of civil society for peace and democracy”.
