SHOTLIST:
 
UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Mia Farrow recently travelled to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) visited a center for girls freed from armed groups.

Many of them had been subjected to rape, sexual slavery or other forms of gender-based violence. At the centre, they receive counselling and vocational training as tailors or carpenters, skills that will offer them a means of survival after they leave.
The centre also has a nursery to assist the girls who arrive either pregnant or with children.
