Brad Pitt Concludes Two Day Listening and Learning Trip to Washington, D.C.; Photo Available19 November 2005
Today, Brad Pitt wrapped up a two day listening and learning trip on AIDS, extreme poverty and trade with DATA (debt AIDS trade Africa) in Washington, D.C. As an ambassador for the ONE campaign (http://www.ONE.org) Pitt visited the nation's capital to build upon his experiences during two trips to Africa in the past year.
Pitt met with members of the NGO community, administration officials, members of Congress from both parties and African farmers to discuss life-saving programs that are making a real difference in Africa, what more can be done and the ongoing international debate over reforming trade rules to eliminate decades of oppressive trade subsidies that have negatively impacted small African and American farmers alike.
