Lakor, who's a partner of Christian children's charity World Vision, presented a Tedx Talk on Friday on her experience of war as a child as part of this year's Whitehall Women event at HMS President in London.
As part of the event, Laker also received the Marsh Award for Peace-making and Peace building from the prestigious Wilton Park.
The infamous LRA militia abducted Lakor when she was 14 in Uganda. She was forced into fighting, and endured sexual violence as part of the LRA's 'forced wives' system for many years.
Then she escaped Lakor was supported at the World Vision Children of War Reintegration Centre in Gulu, Uganda.
As a survivor herself she went on to co-found the Watye Ki Gen charity, which translates to "we have hope".
The charity supports female returnees from the Lord's Resistance Army and their children. It helps them combat the stigma that affects every area of their lives from employment to their children's education.
World Vision Children of War Reintegration Centre has helped rehabilitate and reintegrate nearly 15,000 former child soldiers and children born in captivity in the past decade.
Erica Hall, World Vision UK's Technical Policy Lead on Child Protection said: "Children are vulnerable in the face of conflict.
"Recent UN figures show that there were at least 14,500 grave violations against children in armed conflict last year, including recruitment, sexual violence and abductions."
