This is a Project on Angelina Jolie showing why she is a great world leader. The reasons why I did my project on Angelina Jolie was because of her talent and humanitarian work. In my knowledge I knew she was an amazing actress and that she appeared in many films. But me as a person who is completely inspired by films and acting, I find it quite interesting to do her. Although many people know her for her fame, I felt that people should know her early I life and commitment to charity because many people don’t know her background , e early life and dreadful teenage years. I believe that she is a good role model to look up to as she faces her hard times and moves on to make her life more livable, and to live a life that she herself can be proud of one day in the future. So sit back and please enjoy my project on Angelina Jolie's Life and good works!!!

Leader Profile Name:         Angelina Jolie Voight DOB:         4 June 1975 (37 years old) Born:          Los Angeles, California, US Occupation:    Actress, Producer & Humanitarian Parents:        Jon Voight, Marcheline Bertrand Siblings:       James Haven Partner:        Brad Pitt Children:       6

Background Angelina born in Los Angeles, California, is the daughter of actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand. She is the sister of actor James Haven and niece of singer-songwriter Chip Taylor. On her father's side, Angelina is of German and Slovak descent and on her mother's side, she is of French Canadian, Dutch, and German ancestry. In her earliest years, Angelina began absorbing the acting craft from her parents. Her dad is the Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight and her mother is Marcheline Bertrand, who had studied with Lee Strasberg. At age 11, Angelina began studying at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute, where she was seen in several stage productions.

Early Life After her parents separated in 1976, Angelina and her brother lived with their mom, who abandoned her acting to focus on raising her children. As a child, Angelina saw movies with her mother and later explained that this had inspired her interest in acting but not influenced by her dad. When she was six years old, her mom and stepdad, filmmaker Bill Day, moved to  Palisades, New York. They returned to LA five years later. At the age of 14, Jolie dropped out of her acting classes and wanted to become a funeral director. She began working as a fashion model and modelled mainly in LA, New York, and London.

During her teenage years, she wore black clothing and experimented with knives . She graduated from high school and returned to theatre studies. Angelina suffered episodes of suicidal depression throughout her teens and early twenties. She felt lonely at Beverly Hills High School among other kids. As her mother survived on a more modest income she was teased by other students, who targeted her for being extremely thin and for wearing glasses and braces. She found it difficult to emotionally connect with other people, and as a result she started to harm herself. She said "I collected knives and always had certain things around. For some reason, the ritual of having cut myself and feeling the pain, maybe feeling alive, feeling some kind of release, it was somehow therapeutic to me." She also began experimenting with drugs. By the age of 20, she had tried just about every drug possible including heroin. Angelina has had a difficult relationship with her father. Due her parents breakup she was estranged from her father for many years. They reconciled and he appeared with her in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, but their relationship again got worse.  In July 2002, Angelina who had used her middle name as a stage name to make her own identity as an actress filed a request to legally drop Voight as her surname, which was granted on September 12, 2002.

Career In the mid-1990s, Jolie appeared in various small films where she got good notices, including Hackers and Foxfire. Her critical acclaim increased when she played strong roles in True Women and in George Wallace which won her a Golden Globe Award and an Emmy nomination. Jolie's acclaim increased even further when she played the lead role in the HBO production Gia. This was the true life story of supermodel Gia Carangi. Angelina's performance in Gia again got her a Golden Globe Award Angelina got a major break in 1999 when she won a leading role in the successful feature The Bone Collector. In that same year she gave performance in Girl, Interrupted playing opposite Winona Ryder. The movie was a true story of women who spent time in a psychiatric hospital. In 2000, Jolie was asked to star in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider At first, she was uninterested, but then decided that the required training for the athletic role was intriguing. The public paid $275 million for theatre tickets. Afterwards she became powerful and appeared in many films. Jolie then starred with Brad Pitt in  Mr. & Mrs. Smith. The movie earned $478 million worldwide, making it the seventh-highest grossing film of 2005. Jolie next starred in the 2010 thriller The film was an international success with revenue of $294 million She also starred opposite Johnny Deppin The Tourist which was a major critical failure.

Although her relationship with her Dad was rocky, Angelina infact had always wanted a big family. She first adopted Maddox in Cambodia while filming Lara croft and she adopted him as a single parent. Angelina adopted Zahara from Ethiopia .  On May 27, 2006, Jolie gave birth to a daughter, Shiloh in Swakopmund. On March 15, 2007, Angelina adopted a son called Pax from an orphanage in Vietnam    In May 2008, Angelina said that she was expecting twins. She gave birth to a son, Knox, and a daughter, Vivienne, on July 12, 2008.

Charity When one of the Croft movie's filming locations was Cambodia. While there, Angelina saw the poverty of the country. She considered this an eye opening experience, and so began the humanitarian chapter of her life. Angelina began visiting refugee camps around the world and was soon appointed as a Goodwill Ambassador for the UNHCR. Some of her experiences were written and published in her popular book "Notes from My Travels" whose profits go to UNHCR. Jolie has stated that she now plans to spend most of her time in humanitarian efforts, to be financed by her actress salary. She devotes one third of her income to savings, one third to living expenses and one third to charity. 

unchr After years of dedicated service to the UNHCR and the cause of refugees, Angelina Jolie in April 2012 was appointed as Special Envoy of UN High Commissioner for Refugees António Guterres. In her new role, she focused on major crises’ resulting in population displacements and representing UNHCR and Guterres at the diplomatic level and also with decision making on global issues. Angelina Lolie has done many countless things for the UNHCR and she aims to visit what she terms "forgotten emergencies," crises that media attention has got away from. She visited the Darfur region of Sudan during the Darfur conflict in 2004,  Chad during its civil war in 2007, Iraq during the Second Gulf War in 2007 and 2009, Afghanistan during the ongoing war in 2008 and 2011 and Libya during the Libyan revolution in 2011. After more than a decade of service as Goodwill Ambassador, She was promoted to the rank of Special Envoy of High Commissioner António Guterres on April 17, 2012. As Special Envoy, she represents the UNHCR and High Commissioner António Guterres at the diplomatic level and works to facilitate long-term solutions for people displaced by large-scale crises, such as Afghanistan and Somalia.

In 2003 Angelina Jolie created the Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation for the conservation of Cambodia’s endangered Cardamom Mountains. The focus of its conservation work was on the protection of Samlout National Park. Samlout contains most of the region’s forests, freshwater ecosystems, and endangered species. As more resources became available, MJP’s operations expanded into other areas such as reforestation, community protected area and park. In 2007, the organization changed its name to Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation, retaining the MJP initials, to better reflect the scope of its field projects. Achieving food security and nutritional wellbeing has been central to MJP’s poverty programme in Samlout. Achieving the educational targets in Samlout is a complex undertaking requiring multiple, interventions. To make sure that interventions are educationally sound, practical and sustainable the MJP education team continues to access the expertise and experience of educational partners both within Cambodia and internationally. Over 700 villagers live in Samlout. Since the end of the civil war in 1979, Samlout commune lacked the health facilities and medical practitioners needed to ensure basic quality health services for a growing population. Inadequate private clinics operate in the area with poorly trained and non-licensed medical assistants.

Achievements Angelina Jolie has accomplished many things in life since she was a young girl. Without the help of her Dad she managed to make it to be an award winning star. Even though she has suffered through depression and suicide she managed to achieve a happy and stable life. She achieved in stopping to take drugs as well. For a woman she has appeared in many action films proving that she can do what men can do. Through her good works to charity she managed to improve many 3rd world communities. She has achieved the honour of becoming a UN Goodwill Ambassador. Lastly she has managed to win many awards through her talent of acting such as Golden Globe Awards, Oscar & Academy Awards etc...

Conclusion While most Hollywood stars do everything they can to appear cool and fabulous. But not many has dedicated the last eleven years of their life promoting the refugees and displaced children as Angelina Jolie. Someone who is known to always doing something for charity. She has adopted children from third world countries, supports the rights of women, kids and the right for everyone to be at peace. Despite Being the daughter of Academy Award winner Jon Vought, Angelina was no stranger to the film industry but she worked hard independently without the help of her Dad. During the mid-90s, Jolie appeared in many small films that gained her attention from audiences worldwide. She won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 1999 and was ranked one of the top paid actress in Hollywood. In 2000, Jolie first became aware of worldwide humanitarian crises while filming Tomb Raider in Cambodia. Witnessing the natural beauty, culture and poverty of the country was an eye opening experience. This is where the chapter of her humanitarian work began. In order for her to learn more about the UNHCR, Jolie began visiting refugee camps around the world. She donated millions of her own money to Afghan refugees, as well covering all costs related to her missions. She also shares the same living and working conditions as all UNHCR staff on her visits. In 2001, she was named a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador. So in conclusion, these are the reasons why that Angelina Jolie is a respected world leader.
