Oscar-winning actor George Clooney has officially been appointed a United Nations peace envoy in New York.
The film star, who will promote the UN's peacekeeping missions around the world, arrived in the city from a trip to the Darfur region of Sudan.
Mr Clooney told the BBC he hoped to be able to help the people he met there who had suffered in the conflict.
Among the eight other peace messengers are actor Michael Douglas and Israeli classical musician Daniel Barenboim.
