A former prisoner of the self-proclaimed Islamic State, or I-S, human-rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize nominee Nadia Murad, has brought a very personal cause to Australia.
Just 21 years old, Nadia Murad is on a mission to push for the plight of the Yazidis and other persecuted minorities in Iraq and Syria to be heard.
Just two years ago, in August 2014, the I-S massacre of an estimated 5,000 Yazidi men at Mount Sinjar, Iraq, brought the Yazidis into the spotlight.
