Priyanka Chopra has been in the limelight for all the good reasons in recent days. Dressed in a white classic Balmain number, she was a head turner on the red carpet at the 69th edition of the Emmy Awards. Post the ceremony, the actor was off to New York to attend the UN Global Goals Awards where she spoke about empowering girls. There she also met the youngest goodwill ambassador of UNICEF Muzoon Almelleha, also known as The Syrian Malala.
Chopra took to social media to share her sentiments after the event. “It was an honor to speak at the UN Global Goals Awards on the importance of empowering girls; addressing global leaders and influencers from the United Nations, philanthropy, media, non-profits and business. We all need to come together and work to empower, educate, create opportunities and impart skill sets so that we can be their catalysts for change and to help them build their brave new world. If possible, a safe one, where they can live their dreams and laugh together as one.” UN Global Goals Awards highlight the roles girls play in changing their lives and in striving to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The actor also presented the Leadership Award to Ria Sharma, founder of Make Love Not Scars (MLNS) – an organization that supports acid attacks survivors physically and mentally and offers free treatment to them.
