In 1988, internationally known film actor and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Audrey Hepburn travelled to Ethiopia on her first official UNICEF mission, to raise awareness of the impact of the continuing drought on the country’s children and women. During her trip, Ms. Hepburn visited UNICEF-assisted health clinics and supplementary feeding programmes, ‘food-for-work’ projects, an income-generating project and an orphanage for children who have been abandoned or orphaned in this region during the drought.
