She’s always been an avid proponent of helping out the less fortunate, and earlier today (March 2) Angelina Jolie was busy making a difference in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Actress presented education materials to a local teacher and students as part of her UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador duties.

Jolie also spoke out about the tens of thousands of civilians caught up in turmoil in Libya and in West Africa’s Ivory Coast.

“It is critical that all parties respect the fundamental right of people in danger to flee to safety — whether civilians caught in conflict in their own country or refugees and asylum seekers caught in new conflicts. All I’m asking is that civilians be protected and not targeted or harmed.”

“The world needs to address this moment. We have to give people safe passage, evacuation if needed, and ensure they have asylum. We don’t want to look back and find their deaths are on our hands.”
