VIDEO: Didier Drogba Against Armed Violence

For those for whom “Reggie Bush” and “football” have no immediate connection (or who prefer Chelsea to Barcelona AC Milan), check out this video of soccer football star Didier Drogba, who in addition to a star on the pitch is also an important voice in the global fight against poverty.

As a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Development Program (UNDP), Drogba lends his fame to UNDP’s noble work rebuilding societies after conflict, promoting human rights and gender equality, and helping countries achieve the Millennium Development Goals. You’ll notice that one of the specific threats that Drogba calls attention to in this video is that of cluster bombs — the incredibly destructive munitions that over 100 countries have agreed to ban (but not, unfortunately, the United States).
