Unhcr, the Un Refugee Agency, has announced the appointment of British actor Gugu Mbatha-Raw as its newest global Goodwill Ambassador.
Gugu has been working as a High-Profile Supporter for Unhcr since 2018 and is a powerful advocate for the rights of refugees.
“I’m so thankful to have the opportunity to work in support of refugees and help amplify their voices. I am always amazed by their courage and strength in the face of such seemingly insurmountable odds and it’s a real honour to play a part in sharing their stories. The Covid crisis has made us all aware of the fragility of the lives we build and the importance of doing all we can to support those who have had to leave the place they call home,” said Gugu.
“The crisis has also taught us that, in this interconnected world, we are only as strong as the most vulnerable in society.
