Jolie was announced as one of four lecturers in the new program, aimed at promoting gender equality and improving women's social, economic and political participation and security.

"I am very encouraged by the creation of this master's program," Jolie said in a statement last year. "I hope other academic institutions will follow this example, as it is vital that we broaden the discussion on how to advance women's rights and end impunity for crimes that disproportionately affect women, such as sexual violence in conflict."
