Priyanka Chopra calls for refugee support


25 05 2018

Priyanka Chopra is calling for more support for vulnerable Rohingya refugee children and women, following a four day trip with UNICEF to refugee camps and informal settlements in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh.

The Quantico star, and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, commented 'After seeing the distressing images of the Rohingya crisis unfolding last year, being here and meeting the children and families affected has helped me better understand the enormity of this crisis. Nearly 60% of the more than 700,000 refugees are children, living in desperately difficult conditions – with limited access to permanent shelter, clean and safe water, food and education'.
