A petition was launched on January 8 to award the Nobel Peace Prize to Gisèle Pelicot, collecting over 31,000 signatures in just 24 hours. Initiated by British journalist Catherine Mayer on Change.org, the petition highlights Pelicot’s bravery in testifying against her attackers. It emphasizes the severity of sexual violence as a challenge to peace. Pelicot recently gained international attention following her decision to lift the court’s secrecy in the trial involving her husband, Dominique Pelicot, who along with 50 others was sentenced for aggravated sexual assault.
