The United Nations Development Programme, along with other UN agencies, has long enlisted the voluntary services and support from prominent figures as Goodwill Ambassadors and Advocates to shine a spotlight on important issues affecting people and planet. 

These well-known individuals are not only at the top of their field—whether it's film, television, music, art or sports—they also share a commitment to making the planet a better place for all of us. Through their far-reaching platforms and influence among audiences that transcend national borders, our celebrity advocates and influencers raise awareness and mobilize support to help us fight climate change and realize the Sustainable Development Goals for a healthy planet and a future without poverty and inequality.
