• British actress and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn
  is widely recognized as a film and fashion icon.
  But, in her later years, she appeared in fewer
  films and devoted much of her later life to
  UNICEF. Although contributing to the organization
  since 1954, she worked in some of the most
  profoundly disadvantaged communities of Africa,
  South America and Asia between 1988 and 1992.
• On June 13th, 1989, Hepburn gave a speech to the
  members of the United Nations Staff. This speech
  illuminated the necessity for UNICEF as well as
  addressing the assistance needed to eradicate
  poverty.
• Is this message still relevant today? In an
  essay, describe Hepburns ideas about social
  responsibility. Explain whether or not these
  ideas are dated or are these ideals still
  applicable today?
