After Cannes 2019, Priyanka Chopra Jonas heads to Ethiopia for UNICEF event

Priyanka Chopra Jonas who made heads turn at the 72nd Cannes Film Festival in France recently is now all set to visit Ethiopia for UNICEF. The actress is back to business after attending three days of the eleven-day-long film festival along with husband Nick Jonas. 

Priyanka jetted off from Cannes to Ethiopia to fulfil her UNICEF commitment, this time taking further the cause of educating less-privileged children, particularly those of refugees. A source close to the actor said, "Priyanka's visit will focus on UNICEF's effort to provide access to education for children on the move, in particular, the kids of refugees. She aims to help raise global awareness about the situation. After a previous visit to Zimbabwe, where she called for increased awareness and support for child victims of sexual violence, she will now interact with girls from gender clubs to discuss their work, as they empower other girls. Following the four-day trip, she will return to New York." PeeCee's spokesperson confirmed the news.

The actress posted a video on her Instagram story saying goodbye to France while jetting off to Ethiopia.
