culture of getting involved in such political issues also coming up. a huge street exhibition with a fantastical backdrop has opened in western germany. three d. printers and how they can help recycle plastic waste. in monday's washington post newspaper article appeared written by angelina jolie and the german foreign minister. it was a cold to the international community to support survivors of sexual violence perpetrated in war zones and also to pump punish the perpetrators of such crimes is written to come inside with a debate at the u.n. about this very subject to talk about this and the subject of celebrities getting involved in political issues i'm joined by my colleague david leavitt stave it let's start with angelina jolie who we used to know as

a glamorous film star meanwhile for a long time now we know she's been involved in humanitarian issues how did the whole stop what you know believe it or not it actually started with the two thousand and one movie to more rater this action film based on a video game this did to this really changed angeline is life in two ways one that made her an international superstar but also this was the first major film shot in cambodia after the camero rouge regime and the young actress she was in her mid twenty's at the time realized she wanted to help the country recover do whatever she could she returned back there soon after where she adopted her first child maddox you probably remember and basically what she did as she called up the u.n. refugee agency she said how can i help she started pay her way on to their missions by now she's been actually around sixty u.n. refugee missions let's find out more about humanitarian work. just months after

tumor ater angelina jolie was going on missions around the globe with the u.n. refugee agency and was soon named the agency's goodwill ambassador a title that would take her on missions from chad to pakistan sometimes with then husband brad pitt meeting with people displaced by conflict and disaster. from. julie's film work also reflected stories she heard in conflict. her directorial debut in the land of blood and honey deals with rape during the bosnian war the year after in two thousand and thirteen julie addressed the un security council on sexual violence the world has yet to take up war zone rape as a serious priority hundreds of thousands if not millions of women children and men have been raped in conflicts in our lifetime the numbers are so vast and the subjects so painful that we often have to stop to remember that behind each number

is someone with a name a personality a story and dreams no different from ours and those of our children following julie's appeal the security council adopted its broadest resolution on sexual violence in conflict before their bodies are able jolie has continued to advocate for more action on sexual assault wherever she goes demanding that survivors be heard and cared for perpetrators prosecuted and that organizations including nato and the u.n. do more to stop or. the world. joly the seems to take the job pretty seriously what about all the celebrities who fight for good causes all day effective indeed they always necessary what you know it really depends on how credible they are and how much they actually engage with the topic julie is effective because she's believable you really believe that she cares and she's on the ground now let's take a look at some. do good do gooder celebrities who've sort of and don't their own

credibility going back to bob geldof and bondo these were the big guys in the eighty's starting with the live eight concerts bano for instance has been on the scene for decades speaking out about so many topics that there's almost kind of a bano overload he's almost undone his own credibility because people are sick of seeing him and bob geldof for his part or a few years ago it was reported that he wanted one hundred thousand australian dollars dollars to give a speech about poverty so that really doesn't do much for his credibility either so why it all out do you think stars should get involved in supporting good causes well i think they can do a lot of harm and i'll give you one example of someone who may have done harm may have done a good edge here and he was in liberia a few years ago and came out with a video for comic relief this is a u.k. action where he was talking to children whose parents had died of cholera in

liberia and he seemed to have no clue what he was talking about he was accused of being a white savior he said you know let's we should be putting all these kids in hotels that brought in a lot of money but it didn't really do good in some sense now if it's someone like george and i'm all clooney when they talk about human rights you know that they know what they're talking about and they're engaged. and someone like them or angelina jolie i think that they can bring the public that public's attention to these causes and do a lot of good they believe it's as always thank you field knowledge thank you very much. the furnaces of the massive klingon works in the southwest of germany was shut down over thirty years ago meanwhile these rustic ruins have been used for innovative cultural events and in one thousand nine hundred four it was named the first industrial monument to be on the unesco world heritage site list right now it's being used as a fascinating backdrop for over one hundred street artists from around the world.

vision free. and amin. who have been immortalized in the artworks of mentality from. the work in the chimney shows the brain of artists who grew up in south america his mother was hung garion and his father french the location for the piece is linked to family tradition. my great grandfather edmund built chimneys for factories in paris and france one hundred fifty years ago painting this today in a chimney from the same era is very special for me. the world cultural heritage site is a very cool backdrop for the works of one hundred artists from twenty countries and four continents painting. and don't spoil the opening this is parts of morton. but it all began with

a spray can and the graffiti seen illegal street in the late one nine hundred seventy s. and eighty's today collectors queue up to grab the latest artworks coke to is in demand to use suburban trains in the bronx district of new york. he was frequently arrested are going to lecture q-tip. i was hiding a train because the train was coming so i had to run very quick to hide the train if. i touched the track. got electrocuted. safety at work was the inspiration for french artist mark you know our old german railways posters adorn a hut formerly used for breaks with autos so it was interesting to put the pictures back into their original environment i changed them to fit today's tastes it's a journey into the past of work. with. one political theme recurs over

and over constant surveillance facebook is watching you. because my baby this makes mr zuckerberg baby face into something monstrous of yours to somehow fits in with the idea you actually have to have a facebook these days. cameras is an installation by spanish artist spy he also makes most a federal artwork on show here smoke rises from the chimney of the industrial monument once more but just ninety seconds. good press for street out of plastic has been having a bad press for some time now there's too much in our oceans and mountains of it on land that we can't get rid of because it doesn't biodegrade but there are innovative ways being found to recycle plastic and we've been to see one instigated by a dutch research and design studio for. this particular project is being realized in a park in greece. plastic recycled into a new form with

a new function. the seeding elements and the greek port city of saloniki are part of a project called print your city. plastic waste as pop cycled as furniture from a three d. printer. the idea came from the dutch design studio the new role. as from greece as one of the project's founders. plastic is a mis understood material which is it's not the material that's the problem it was about how we use it packaging for. sample yeah but i think my skill as it might only be used for a few seconds but it never degrade so i could not but you know if we use it in some other way later we can change things and improve our lives. this is precisely what kano sockets hopes to achieve with the project. the guy who designed the furniture to allow people to experience public spaces in a new way with different last years. rather than sitting right they can relax

a bit more if the it i as if they were sitting in their own living robes. this is the feeling we'd like to put across these and bring private living space into public spaces and the fate of the muscle. anyone who wishes to participate can suggest designs online or select pieces of furniture from the various templates the ones that are selected most often go into print how did they hear that i was so happy when i was walking through town one day and saw that a bench i had designed had been printed to the assay and then it's there for everyone to get thank you to the others that you know. as soon as a new design template goes online the amount of recycled plastic needed for the three d. printing process miscalculated automatically. at the zero waste or research initiative of the new raw people in fassel uneek you can find out about recycling and because of the plastic trash it's cleaned sorted shredded and melted down.

only i don't like to just throw things out at all but it was sides i think we ought to have a responsible attitude toward our planet. after all we use its resources year by year. takes about seventy kilos of plastic and ten hours to make apart from a three d. printer. i have. colorful seats are given placed around thessaloniki center and more plants eventual the idea is to spread them all around the city. the combination of recycling and design is proving a hit with the locals and visitors alike. it's very impressive to see that you can transform waste into something ascetic in this way i get the canonical everyone can enjoy it and sit here with their friends it's a definite gain. nothing negative about it because the. end of the park benches

never fall apart they'll simply be recycled it's a good idea and a sustainable one. with bush is in the back of the city school that's it for this edition forget to check out our website the w dot com slash facebook page that's. full on all those topics and thanks for watching now i hope you can join us at the same time tomorrow until that.
