Pop diva Shakira is best known for smash hits, but there is another side to her work for which she has been justly lauded.

She is a staunch advocate of education, especially for the underprivileged in Latin America and particularly in her home country, Colombia.

It was with this noble objective in mind that she set up her foundation Pies Descalzos.
