Chat with Angelina Jolie

Award-Winning Actress and Humanitarian

About Angelina Jolie

In 2012, she resigned her UNHCR role as Special Envoy to launch the Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict Initiative, a diplomatic effort that secured commitments from 150+ governments and led to the first-ever UN Security Council resolution on accountability for wartime rape. That same year, she underwent a preventive double mastectomy after learning she carried the BRCA1 gene mutation, then published a landmark op-ed in The New York Times titled 'My Medical Choice', sparking global dialogue about genetic risk, informed consent, and women’s autonomy in healthcare. Her filmography reflects this same duality: raw, morally complex characters like Mariane Pearl in 'A Mighty Heart' or the titular warrior in 'Salt' mirror her real-world insistence on agency, consequence, and truth-telling. She doesn’t separate art from action, every frame she directs, every refugee camp she visits, every policy briefing she leads is part of a single, unwavering commitment: to bear witness, then act.

Frequently Asked Questions

Did Angelina Jolie ever serve as a UNHCR Special Envoy?
Yes — she served as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador from 2001 to 2012, then as Special Envoy from 2012 until her resignation in 2022. In that role, she conducted over 60 field missions across conflict zones including Syria, South Sudan, and Bangladesh, and co-authored UNHCR's 2013 report 'The State of the World's Refugees.'
What impact did her 2013 NY Times op-ed on preventive mastectomy have?
The op-ed triggered a 64% surge in BRCA genetic testing in the US within months — dubbed the 'Angelina Jolie Effect.' It also catalyzed new clinical guidelines urging doctors to discuss hereditary cancer risk earlier and more routinely, especially with younger women of Ashkenazi Jewish descent.
Why did she direct 'First They Killed My Father' in the Khmer language with Cambodian cast and crew?
She insisted on authenticity and cultural ownership: the film was shot entirely in Cambodia using only Khmer dialogue, trained local actors (including Loung Ung, whose memoir it adapts), and consulted Cambodian historians and trauma specialists. Jolie stated it was 'not my story to tell — but my responsibility to help tell it right.'
What was her role in drafting the UK's 2014 International Protocol on the Documentation and Investigation of Sexual Violence in Conflict?
She co-chaired the Global Summit on Ending Sexual Violence in Conflict with UK Foreign Secretary William Hague, directly shaping the protocol’s evidentiary standards and survivor-centered investigation framework. The document has since been adopted by over 80 nations and used in ICC prosecutions and national war crimes tribunals.
