Following his humanitarian mission in Sudan and India, George Clooney visits the United Nations in New York City on Thursday to receive his Messenger Of Peace designation.
Joined by his mom and dad, the actor-cum-dogooder was named the U.N.’s 9th Messenger Of Peace by Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in honour of his campaign to end the war in Darfur and increase the region’s humanitarian aid.
Next up for George the Great? A series of meetings with country dignitaries who contribute troops to the U.N.’s 17 peacekeeping missions worldwide.
