UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Shakira has been an advocate for education for quite a while, from traveling to the Israeli Presidential Conference in Jerusalem to talk about “Education for Peace” to donating $400,000 to a school in Haiti. In her most recent endeavor, she traveled to India to meet with adolescent girls and discuss the importance of education. Shakira explains, “My interaction with these adolescent girls was energizing and inspiring. It only reminded me, once again, that girls are a precious resource of intellectual and physical ability- a resource that can help to further society. They need the chance to be educated and empowered.”
