The new appointment builds on her current role as the UNICEF Kid Power national spokesperson and follows in the footsteps of the late Hollywood icon Audrey Hepburn and Sex And The City's Sarah Jessica Parker.
'One in four kids, globally, are malnourished. So UNICEF has found a way, with Kid Power, to combat both problems at the same time.
'You're getting kids super motivated to move their feet and you're also creating global citizens, where they care, and they're able to help other kids around the world.'
The Just Give Me A Reason singer, whose real name is Alicia Moore, joined UNICEF on a trip to Haiti in July where she visited a health centre for women and infants.

The expedition reminded Pink of just how inspirational children can be.
She told People magazine: 'They're so ready to fix their world. They just keep going. Kids are so resilient. I sat with this little four or five year old. And she just held her hands on my face and sang to me.
'She's living in a one-room shack with her entire family and hardly any food, and she's taking the time to sit with me and sing with me.
'The kids give me the most hope.'
