The International Organization for Migration (IOM) announced her today among the appointments of nine Goodwill Ambassadors – entertainers, artists, sports figures, and other notable people – joining IOM’s inaugural global Ambassador, Olympic champion Sir Mo Farah, announced last November.
“I am thrilled to welcome these remarkable people as IOM’s new Regional and National Goodwill Ambassadors,” said IOM Director-General Amy Pope. “They’re trailblazers and sources of inspiration around the world. Now, they’ll make a difference in another way, joining our efforts to champion well-managed migration and improve the lives of people on the move.”
Abebrese is part of nine Ambassadors – eight individuals and one football.
