Alaa Murabit (born October 26, 1989) is a Canadian physician〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=CBC News )〕 who became a women's rights activist in Libya in 2011. She has since become a leading international advocate for women's rights and their inclusion in peace processes and conflict resolution.〔 ==Early life and education== Murabit was born and raised in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, the sixth of eleven children in her family. Her father is a doctor. She has stated that, although she initially had no plans on advocating women's rights, her parents' equal treatment of her and her brothers played an extremely important role in the way she viewed the world.〔 After completing high school at age fifteen, she moved with members of her family to Zawiya, Libya, where she studied medicine at the University of Zawiya. She grew frustrated seeing "that “regardless of how much I studied, or how much smarter I was than my male classmate, his opinion always trumped mine....I felt very much robbed of my own opportunity and my own rights.”〔 She studied at the College of Medicine at the University of Zawiya in Libya from 2006 to 2013, and worked at Zawiya Teaching Hospital and at various makeshift clinics during the 2011 civil war.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Georgetown Journal of International Affairs )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Linkdein )〕 When the war began, her father became involved almost immediately with the rebels, and together they provided medical care for rebel soldiers. “Their work put them on the regime’s radar,” the ''Daily Beast'' later reported. “Her father was hunted and even arrested a few times, and she was put on Libya’s list of wanted women.”〔 Murabit later explained, “My father was already wanted and had been on SkyNews with Alex Crawford in the first week of March 2011, named as Dr. M, she actually writes about the experience in her book...The list was of women they perceived to be supporting the revolutionaries in Zawiya, where I live. Zawiya had been retaken by the Regime, despite being the first city in the West to rise up. The idea behind it was that these women should be, if found, arrested. It seemed more symbolic than anything." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alaa Murabit」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
