Storyline

UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, internationally acclaimed actress and humanitarian activist Mia Farrow visited Dadaab refugee complex in Kenya earlier this week.

Mia Farrow’s visit comes as the Dadaab complex expands further to accommodate the growing number of Somali refugees arriving in Kenya due to drought and conflict.

Dadaab, which is now the biggest refugee complex in the world, is home to more than 400,000 registered refugees, nearly all of them Somali, with an estimated 70,000 people having arrived in the past two months as conditions in their homeland rapidly deteriorate.

United Nations (UN) agencies are working with partner organizations to ease the overcrowding within Dadaab and to provide improved health care, schooling, water and sanitation for camp residents.

According to UNICEF, Farrow has worked extensively to raise funds and awareness for children whose lives have been affected by violence in countries such as Angola, Chad, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Haiti and Nigeria.

Along with her son, Ronan, a UNICEF Spokesperson for Youth, she has visited Darfur, Sudan, several times to highlight the devastating impact of continued violence on women and children.
