Back in May 2016, Angelina Jolie announced that she will be teaching a master class at the London School of Economics (LSE), and ahead of the course’s start date, she has given her first lecture at the school.
She spoke to students at the university’s Centre for Women, Peace and Security about how women in refugee camps are at greater risk for sexual violence and other crimes, reported People magazine.
“Angelina Jolie spoke to a class of students taking the postgraduate course Women, Peace and Security, as part of her role as visiting professor in practice in the Centre for Women, Peace and Security,” an LSE spokesperson said.
“Miss Jolie spoke about her experience and what has motivated her work as UNHCR special envoy and as co-founder of the Preventing Sexual Violence Initiative, and took questions from the class.” Angelina helped launch the Preventing Sexual Violence Initiative in 2012.
It seems that Angelina will be keeping plenty busy in the world of academia and beyond in the wake of her divorce from Brad Pitt. Her LSE master class is set to begin in September this year, and meanwhile, she has confirmed her involvement in several new film projects, including her own return to the big screen after two years behind the camera.
