Susana Rinaldi
Celebrated Argentinean tango singer and actress Susana Rinaldi was designated UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador in 1992. As passionate about promoting a more just and peaceful world as she is about her music, this Latin super star sang at the anniversary of the Oslo peace accords and has given benefit concerts for street children.
A recipient of the most prestigious artistic awards in Argentina and a highly recognized international star, Susana Rinaldi has consistently spoken out against human rights violations and social injustices. An artist with a great political conscience, she advocates these ideals in her music and in her international concert and theatre tours.
Greatly concerned about the rights of artists, Rinaldi, in collaboration with the Spanish National Commission for UNESCO, was instrumental in the establishment of the Casa de Actores, a retirement home for impoverished actors that provides them with a place to live in safety and dignity.
