Angelina Jolie @ Clinton Global Initiative

Angelina Jolie announces a significant $148 million initiative to help educate children in conflict areas at the Clinton Global Initiative on Wednesday in New York City — the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict.

“Education can transform the lives of children in conflict, giving them the tools to create a better future for their families and their nations,” explained Angie, who co-chairs the Education Partnership with Gene Sperling, Director of the Center for Universal Education at the Council on Foreign Relations. “This Partnership is putting words into action,” Angie explained, “and demonstrating that even in the most difficult circumstances, every child can and should have a chance to learn.”

The Education Partnership for Children of Conflict will include:

– 18 Commitments from 19 World Renowned Organizations and Individuals in 15 Countries
– Commitments to improve educational opportunities for 1+ million conflict-affected children including (1) 350,000 out-of-school children in conflict-affected regions to be given an opportunity to attend school and (2) Improve the learning environment, safety, materials and teacher quality of another 690,0000 children in conflict affected regions
– The commitments will assist 200,000 Iraqi refugee children and aid than 300,000 children affected by the Darfur genocide.

You are so very welcome julia, sorry I did’nt do as great of a job as I’d like, I was really listening to the stories and so touch and moved by them. Thankyou for saying Thankyou. Now I’m off.
See you guys later.

For all the fans who missed the panel discussions, try to find a recording of it somewhere somehow. It was an incredible viewing. You shouldn’t miss it.

i’m so proud of her. she was with a great panel.

LOVE ANGELINA @ 09/26/2007 at 6:59 pm

I don’t know if anyone here say the panel but it was amazing. Angelina did an excellent job. :)

Sorry, I meant that for julia. Bye.

Hey Estelle, You’re no 1.
You must be laughing away!!! Thats so sweet !!!!

I just love hearing Angie talk. She has such a beautiful speaking voice.

I can honestly say I now see for myself what all the fans here have been seeing in her all this time. She is a true activist and humanitarian. Very impressive indeed.

A must see and please let’s support their movies.

ANGELINA FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!

—-
LOL I was thinking the same but I don’t think she will go into politics as she is smart enough to know that she can do much more without any political allegiance to any party.

I can’t open the video.She is an amazing woman. I hope to see the video.

Whatever of course its sad to visit refugee camps. Her crying and tears took up soooo much that the Afghan Education Minister had no time to talk. Bad moderator. I would rather here from Afghan Minister than some celebrity wannabe.

Thank goodness the server problems were fixed. I was able to watch her and the other panelists. She is a beautiful, wonderful, intelligent, compassionate, strong, classy, dilligent, dedicated woman. She received the loudest applause after each of her speeches. She was so gracious. And she really listens when the others were speaking. She and Brad are doing good things. May they continue to be strong. May they be blessed in all of their efforts. May their children grow healthy and strong knowing that they are truly loved. Peace.

The wondeful woman
beautiful

Let us translate our happiness to dollars and send our contributions. I am indeed very proud of Brad and Angie.

What is wrong with the side of her face? Other than that, her acting skills come in handy memorizing what to say.

I remember a time when i wasnt that into angelina, now i want to know everything about her ..she turn out pretty terrific very well-round beautiful human being..maybe there is hope for jennifer anniston and this is no comparing..for there is none with angie

Is there anyway we, fans, could send and e-mail from the fans to
Angie and Brad? You know collect the names of all the fans, or those who want to, and send an e-mail to her and Brad thanking them for their involvment and their caring. I don’t know how we would do it as I am totally computer challenged. But any ideas? Peace

I loved Brad speech and I loved Angie’ speech.
They were both great.
They have real hactic schedules but able to accomplish all these things.

Sorry guys for the double post a while ago i guess i was so excited after watching angie speak.

Dagnabbit, the video won’t run. PUH-LEEEEEEEEEZE, SOMEBODY, PUT IT ON YOUTUBE!!!!

Angelina must have done a fantastic job. Brad can be very, very proud of his lady.
