Pakistani actress and UN goodwill ambassador, Mahira Khan has once again showed her support for displaced Afghan refugees.

The Superstar actress took to her Instagram and raised awareness regarding the rights of Afghan refugees. She shared a few pictures in which she can be seen spending some time and talking with Afghan refugee children.

She expressed the importance of displaced Afghans having their basic rights and wrote,

“The dreams of displaced Afghans are no different than anyone else’s dreams. To have a home. To send their children to school. To provide for their families. They need peace to fulfill their dreams.”

“I truly believe education is the key to success for every society. The GlobalGoals set a target of quality education for ALL. Refugees included. At the #Afghanistan2020, discussions on the quality of education will help secure the future of refugee children,” she added.

Mahira Khan was appointed as National Goodwill Ambassador for UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) in November 2019.

The UNHCR is a global organization dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights and building a better future for refugees, forcibly displaced communities and stateless people.
