Karen has joined the ranks of other celebrity goodwill ambassadors such as Emma Watson, Anne Hathaway, Nicole Kidman, and Danai Gurira.
Known for her work in broadcast journalism, Karen Davila is a woman of many hats. She is the first Filipino appointed as UN Women Asia Pacific Goodwill Ambassador for the Philippines.
Karen has joined the ranks of other celebrity goodwill ambassadors such as Emma Watson, Anne Hathaway, Nicole Kidman, and Danai Gurira.
On her Instagram post, Karen took the time to make her announcement and thanked UN Women Asia Pacific Regional Director Alia El-Yassir for giving her a welcome.
"THE UN FAMILY 🇺🇳 Yesterday, I was officially welcomed by UN Women Asia Pacific Regional Director Alia El-Yassir as the first UN Women Philippines Goodwill Ambassador serving the country & the region.
"I honestly didn’t know what to expect but was so surprised with how warm, and welcoming everybody was at the UN Women Asia Pacific office!" Karen wrote.
"In the series of photos she uploaded, Karen is seen having a conversation with some of the UN Women regional office staff in Bangkok.
"She expressed her passion for women empowerment by stating that the international organization covers topics that are important to her, such as climate change, ending violence against women (VAW), women’s economic empowerment, women’s role in governance, peace & security (WPS), and unpaid care.
"Many of the issues felt familiar as in my 30 years as a broadcast journalist, I have done stories, docus, and advocated for women & girls rights. I always say the best investment one can make to lift a family out of poverty is educating a girl and empowering a mother," she added.
Playing her duties as the newly selected UN Women Asia Pacific goodwill ambassador, she promised to work closely "with many UN Women champions and advocates back home to help bring about change in mindsets, behaviour and hopefully, in the everyday lives of women & girls thru projects, we will be involved in."
At the end of her post, Karen embarked on this momentum as her first journey towards to many projects and campaigns in the future as a goodwill ambassador.
"This is the first step of the journey. The final meet is this October at the UN HQ in New York. And siyempre, PROUDLY FILIPINA po tayo 🇵🇭", she wrote.
I have been taught that Saturday in German is "Sonnabend"...

It is not “when”, but rather “where”. E. g. I live in the Northwest (Lower Saxony, near Bremen) and use “Samstag” all the time, albeit — according to studies — “Sonnabend” is prevalently used in Northern and Central Germany. I don’t hear it a lot, though, but I think I remember that our first landlady in Germany (born in the 20ies in Eastern Pomerania, today Polish territory) did use it quite often.
If you read newspapers or watch news on TV, you’ll see that the prevalence of the shorter “Samstag” is 100 % or close to that. In more relaxed contexts, you may hear and read Sonnabend, but I think it is slowly disappearing.
