The Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought, named in honour of the Soviet physicist and political dissident Andrei Sakharov, is awarded each year by the European Parliament. It was set up in 1988 to honour individuals and organisations defending human rights and fundamental freedoms.

Each nominee must have the support of at least 40 MEPs, and each individual Member may support only one nominee. Signed nominations accompanied by supporting evidence are then assessed in a joint meeting of the Committee on Foreign Affairs (AFET), the Subcommittee on Human Rights (DROI) and the Committee on Development (DEVE). A shortlist of three candidates is drawn up through a vote by AFET and DEVE committees, and then submitted to the Conference of Presidents for a final vote. The winner is usually announced in October, and the award ceremony takes place in November/December at plenary sitting in Strasbourg.

The European Parliament has awarded the 2024 Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado and President-elect Edmundo González Urrutia.

During the ceremony at December’s plenary session in Strasbourg, European Parliament President Roberta Metsola paid tribute to their fight to restore democracy in Venezuela.

Parliament recognises the opposition as the legitimate winners of Venezuela’s July 2024 presidential election, and condemns the electoral fraud and rights violations carried out by the Maduro regime that stayed in power despite mass protests.

The Sakharov Prize is the EU’s highest award for human rights defenders. The other finalists from 2024 were Azerbaijani anti-corruption activist Dr Gubad Ibadoghlu and the Women of the Sun and Women Wage Peace movements, which promote reconciliation and understanding between Israelis and Palestinians.

Tá Duais Sakharov 2024 um Shaoirse Smaointeoireachta bronnta ag Parlaimint na hEorpa ar cheannaire fhreasúra Veiniséala María Corina Machado agus ar an Uachtarán toghaí Edmundo González Urrutia.

Le linn an tsearmanais ag seisiún iomlánach mhí na Nollag in Strasbourg, thug Uachtarán Pharlaimint na hEorpa Roberta Metsola ómós dá gcomhrac chun an daonlathas a athbhunú i Veiniséala.

Aithníonn an Pharlaimint an freasúra mar bhuaiteoirí dlisteanacha thoghchán uachtaránachta Iúil 2024 i Veiniséala, agus cáineann sí an chalaois toghcháin agus na sáruithe ar chearta a rinne réimeas Maduro a d’fhan i gcumhacht in ainneoin oll-agóidí.

Is í Duais Sakharov an duais is airde ar fad san AE do chosantóirí chearta an duine. Ba iad na hiomaitheoirí eile sa bhabhta ceannais ó 2024 ná an gníomhaí frith-éillithe Asarbaiseáinis an Dr Gubad Ibadoghlu agus na gluaiseachtaí Women of the Sun agus Women Wage Peace, a chothaíonn athmhuintearas agus tuiscint idir Iosraelaigh agus na Palaistínigh.

Labhraíonn Denis Mukwege, buaiteoir Dhuais Nobel na Síochána, in aghaidh éigniú agus foréigean a bheith in úsáid i gcoinne ban mar arm cogaidh. Is é bunaitheoir Ospidéal Panzi in Bukavu, Poblacht Dhaonlathach an Chongó, é. Mar ghínéiceolaí, chabhraigh sé leis na mílte bean a d'fhulaing foréigean gnéis agus inscnebhunaithe ina thír. In 2014, bhronn Parlaimint na hEorpa Duais Sakharov um Shaoirse Smaointeoireachta air as a chuid oibre. Ceithre bliana ina dhiaidh sin, bhuaigh sé Duais Nobel na Síochána. Leanann sé le feasacht an phobail a ardú ar cheist an fhoréigin ghnéasaigh in aghaidh na mban le linn coinbhleachtaí armtha. * Féach ar an óráid iomlán ar Lárionad Ilmheán Pharlaimint na hEorpa: http://epyoutube.eu/SpeechMukwege

D'iarr ceannaire na hAfraice Theas Nelson Mandela deireadh tapa a chur leis an gcóras cinedheighilte agus mhol athmhuintearas. Iúil 1990 a bhí ann. Díreach ceithre mhí roimhe sin scaoileadh saor é, tar éis 27 bliain sa phríosún. Ag an am, bhí an Afraic Theas fós á rialú ag rialtas mionlaigh geal. Ceithre bliana i ndiaidh na hóráide seo, bheadh Mandela ar an gcéad uachtarán ar an Afraic Theas dhaonlathach. * Féach ar an óráid iomlán ar Lárionad Ilmheán Pharlaimint na hEorpa

Dúirt an bhean feachtais um chearta an duine Nadia Murad le Parlaimint na hEorpa in 2016 go dtéann an troid in aghaidh sceimhlitheoireachta agus ciníochais in éineacht le chéile. Thug sí a haitheasc nuair a bronnadh Duais Sakharov 2016 um Shaoirse Smaointeoireachta uirthi in éineacht le Lamiya Aji Bashar. Dhíol grúpa sceimhlitheoireachta an Stáit Ioslamaigh an bheirt acu, ó phobal Iasaídeach san Iaráic, ina sclábhaithe gnéis in 2014. D’éirigh le Murad éalú agus chuaigh sí ar aghaidh ag déanamh abhcóide ar son íospartaigh an fhoréigin ghnéasaigh agus na gáinneála ar dhaoine. In 2018 bhuaigh sí Duais Síochána Nobel. *Féach ar an aitheasc iomlán ar Lárionad Ilmheán Pharlaimint na hEorpa. *Féach ar a thuilleadh físeán ó dhuaiseanna Sakharov san am a chuaigh thart: http://epyoutube.eu/Sakharov_Prize_playlist
