Global star Priyanka Chopra Jonas is trending on social media owing to her motivational speech at an event organized by United Nations General Assembly in the US. The actress, who is UN Goodwill Ambassador, was one of the main speakers at the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Moment. In her empowering speech, Priyanka talked about many global and social-political issues like Covid 19 pandemic, climate crisis, poverty, inequality, rage, girl education, and others.
While stressing the education for a girl child, PeeCee stated, “I grew up in India, where access to education is a challenge for a lot of girls, as it is in many other parts of the world, where children desperately want to learn, but are challenged to do so. I strongly believe that education is just the cornerstone of equality, social justice, social change, and democracy.”
An excerpt from her speech also read, “We meet today at a critical point in our world, at a time when global solidarity is more important than ever. As countries continue to struggle from the devastating effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the climate crisis appends lives and livelihoods, as conflicts rage, and as poverty displacement, hunger and inequalities destroy the very foundation of the more just world that we have fought for such a long time.” ALSO READ: Priyanka Chopra Reveals How Her Nose Surgery Went Wrong: 'Mom And I Were Horrified’; Shares Trolls Called Her 'Plastic Chopra'!
