The mother-of-one has made two trips to Colombia on behalf of UNHCR in Vogue, the first being in 2015. 

After her returned from her second trip in September, Helena wrote a piece in Vogue about her experiences.

She wrote: ‘Last month, when UNHCR asked me to return to Colombia, I immediately agreed. Since I was on Colombian soil for the first time, more than 2.4 million refugees from Venezuela have arrived.’

Helena finished with a request: ‘I invite you to show support and solidarity…for all the people who have been forcibly displaced in the world.’

On Instagram, she said: In Colombia there are 6.8 million people internally displaced by violence and persecution.

‘UNCHR works in hard-to-reach areas across Colombia which makes a difference for the communities affected by forced displacement.’

When Helena is not working, she is hanging out with long-term friends Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington or fellow European Eva Herzigová.
