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.

Nadia Murad and Lamiya Aji Bashar are the 2016 laureates of Parliament's Sakharov Prize.

On 5 October 2018 the Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the Nobel Peace Prize for 2018 to Denis Mukwege and Nadia Murad.

Here is a speech from Nadia Murad delivered in the European Parliament in 2016. Nadia Murad is a survivor of the darkest hours of Islamic State. Sold and exploited as a sex slave, she managed to escape and find refuge in Germany. Together with Lamiya Aji Bashar, she has become a spokesperson for victims of sexual violence and an advocate for Iraq's Yazidi community. Honoured with several international human rights prizes, including the Sakharov Prize awarded by the European Parliament, she takes the floor to speak for her people.
