Hollywood actress Audrey Hepburn was a tireless advocate for children’s rights.
Soon after becoming a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador in 1988, she went on a mission to Ethiopia, where years of drought and civil strife had caused terrible famine. After visiting UNICEF emergency operations, Audrey talked about the projects to media in the United States, Canada and Europe over several weeks, giving as many as 15 interviews a day.
In 1989, Audrey Hepburn gave this passionate speech as world leaders adopted the 缅北禁地Convention on the Rights of the Child.
