About UNICEF Ambassadors

UNICEF has appointed ambassadors around the world since 1954. These individuals — artists, athletes, and other public figures — dedicate their talent and recognition to advancing and protecting children's rights.

Ambassadors are selected not only for their popularity but, above all, for their credibility with the public and their demonstrated commitment to children and adolescents, even while maintaining demanding professional schedules.
