George Clooney's human rights lawyer wife visited the United Nations Headquarters in New York City
, Baria Alamuddin - journalist, broadcaster and Amal's mother - told us how proud she was of her daughter's work."I am immensely proud of all Amal and George's charitable work, in too many fields to do justice to here.
"Amal's work alongside Nobel Peacewinner Nadia Murad, in support of Iraqi victims of genocide, atrocities and sexual violence, was also an issue I feel especially passionately about. "The Clooney Foundation for Justice is a hugely important initiative for defending victims of injustice and ensuring that there are genuine consequences for those corrupt and evil individuals who exploit their power to violate the human rights of innocent citizens. The work this Foundation has done in support of Syrian refugees is particularly commendable.
"I passionately believe that all acts of human kindness serve to make this world a less severe and forbidding place; and in the current global climate of intolerance, xenophobia and demonization we are in desperate need of every drop of kindness we can get."
