希尔琳·艾芭迪出生于1947年，她是伊朗律师和人权活动者。最为人们所知的是在2003年获得诺贝尔和平奖。评委会赞赏她对民主和人权所做出的卓越贡献，特别是儿童和妇女的权益。并成为第一位获得该奖的伊朗人和穆斯林女性。

Ebadi grew up in Teheran and graduated in law in 1965. Four years later, she qualified to become a judge. In 1975, she became the first woman in her country to be in charge of a court. Following the Iranian Revolution in 1979, the new government decided it was against Islam for women to be judges, so Ebadi was demoted to a secretarial position.

Ebadi was allowed to practice as a lawyer in 1993. She famously defended high-profile cases, especially those who challenged Iran’s leadership. She started campaigning for greater legal protection for women and children, gender equality, and democracy. She drafted a text against the physical abuse of children, which passed into law in 2002.

In 2008 she spoke about the dangers she faces in pursuing human rights. "Threats against my life and security and those of my family, which began some time ago, have intensified,"she said.
