The pop star Shakira has expressed hope that the world "can act as a team" to educate future generations while at a conference in Jerusalem.
The Colombian musician, who launched an education charity in 1997, was speaking to some of the 1,700 guests at the third annual Presidential Conference. She said the Holy Land was the "perfect place to talk about how urgent it is to invest in education."
She said it would be "wonderful" if the world could work together on solving its many challenges and problems.
"This is the time to behave like a team, to wear the same T-shirts and to win the match of discrimination, to win the match of inequality and segregation."
