Mumbai, June 12 (IBNS): Bollywood diva Madhuri Dixit Nene, who joined hands with the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), has said she will 'give a voice to those who have none'.

"I am honoured to associate with UNICEF in an effort to bring focus to issues concerning women and children in Indian society.  As an ambassador for children's rights, I will work hard to give a voice to those who have none.  My hope is that through these efforts, we will together change the lives of many in India," Madhuri said.

She has now become UNICEF’s ‘Celebrity Advocate for Child Rights’.

The actress has not only been supporting UNICEF in the area of child rights over the last one year, but also has done some key public service announcements for child protection.

She has also spread messages on prevention of child labour and child trafficking.
