Chopra is visiting the Rohingya refugee camps on a field visit.
Priyanka
on Monday tweeted a photograph of herself from an aircraft looking out of the
window.
"Follow my Instagram to share my experiences as I visit the
Rohingya refugee camps on this Unicef field visit. Children uprooted, the world
needs to care. We need to care," she captioned the image.
Priyanka, 35,
has worked with Unicef for a decade and was appointed as the national and global
Unicef goodwill ambassador for Child Rights in 2010 and 2016 respectively. She
promotes causes such as environment, health and education and women's rights

Almost 700,000 refugees have fled violence in
neighbouring Myanmar and arrived in Cox's Bazar since August 2017, according to
the UN.
Last year, Priyanka had met Syrian refugee children in Jordan.
The actress has flown to Dhaka from London, where she attended her friend
