Angelina Jolie's humanitarian efforts were shaped by significant challenges, including her experiences as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador witnessing the impacts of war and displacement on vulnerable communities. Her early life, marked by her parents’ divorce and her own struggles with mental health, has endowed her with empathy towards others facing hardship. The need to advocate for children and victims of violence became a priority for her, leading to the establishment of the Jolie-Pitt Foundation. Additionally, her personal commitment to global issues such as refugee rights has significantly directed her public persona and philanthropy.
