Singer David Bisbal, today appointed ambassador of UNICEF Spanish Committee, said there is to say "enough" to the war in Syria, after six years of conflict. Speaking to EFE, Bisbal, who works with UNICEF Spanish Committee since 2004, he recalled that wrote the song "It hurts too much" to "denounce what unfortunately live in this country." The composition was born during a "break" when he saw on the news terrible news about the war in Syria and decided to assign the copyright to Unicef Spanish Committee. The singer expressed his desire to continue working with this organization to continue spreading "this kind of atrocities that people have to be aware of the harshness of reality that exists in these countries." "In this world so it divided in which we live, I'm sure we all agree on one thing and we can not allow the suffering of children," he said.
President of Unicef Committee Spanish, Carmelo Angulo, was pleased to share this moment in which "the protagonists are children" and stressed the conflict in Syria that resurfaces in "our conscience" increasingly produced "a new atrocity". Bisbal received his appointment as an ambassador for Unicef with "joy" but also with "responsibility and seriousness" to publicize the "difficult" situation that many children live in many countries around the world. The singer said he has had the opportunity to learn "firsthand" the work of the United Nations agency for children in countries like Venezuela and Nepal. In 2011, he visited Venezuela to children and adolescents from troubled neighborhoods participating in programs of art and entertainment, while in 2015 he traveled to Nepal, where he visited a temporary school for children affected by the earthquake would not have to stop studying. In Venezuela, where he was appointed a friend of Unicef, he could see how children and adolescents in situations of social exclusion through music could succeed and that "music makes the neediest people can smile in times of difficulty," he said.
While in Nepal, in the middle of a country "completely devastated by two earthquakes," I saw the smile of children in temporary UNICEF can build schools with donations from people. Winner of two Latin Grammys and two Billboard awards, Bisbal is prepared "in the best way possible," making healthy lifestyle, taking care of feeding and playing sports, for the tour starting next June 2 in his hometown, Almería, to present his latest album "children of the sea". "I am excited and looking forward to June 2," said the singer, who will be touring all summer in Spain and Latin America will reach in November, trips leverage to collaborate with Unicef.
