International superstar, Rihanna, recently visited a school in Lilongwe, Malawi, to display her Global Ambassador for Education duties.
The 28-year-old pop star who toured the classrooms met with educators, government officials, and school children during her charity trip on behalf of her Clara Lionel Foundation to promote access to education for children.
She was spotted with Global Citizen CEO, Hugh Evans as well as Julia Gillard, GPE’s board of directors chair during a meeting in a Malawian village.
Rihanna founded CLF in 2012 in honor of her grandparents, Clara and Lionel Braithwaite, and according to her, ‘working together, I know we can amplify our efforts and ensure that millions of children gain access to education globally’.
Through a multi-year partnership, Rihanna’s Clara Lionel Foundation (CLF), international advocacy group, Global Citizen, and GPE campaign work together to make sure the world’s poorest children have a chance to better themselves.
She became an ambassador for the Global Partnership for Education back in September.
