Carey Mulligan Meets with Lord Ahmad In Support of Children Affected by Armed Conflict

Carey Mulligan happily poses with Minister of State for the UN Lord Ahmad at The Foreign Office on Tuesday (December 18) in London, England.

The 33-year-old Wildlife actress, who is a War Child Global Ambassador, discussed galvanising the international community to support children affected by armed conflict around the world.

The meeting follows the launch of the Global Coalition for Reintegration, which aims to ensure children affected by war have access to high quality, long-term programmes addressing psychosocial, education and vocational needs. The UK is a strong supporter of the initiative.

“On behalf of War Child I’m really pleased to see Lord Ahmad’s commitment to addressing the challenges faced by children in conflict – and we look forward to working with him and the FCO to ensure that the rights of children in war are at the heart of the UK’s foreign policy agenda,” Carey said in a statement. “War Child is committed to listening to the experiences of children affected by conflict and providing long-term solutions and supporting them to overcome their experiences and look forward to a meaningful future.”
