Sharing her reaction on the honour, Raveena told Hindustan Times, “I am honoured to be invited and to represent 675 million Indian women in India as part of this delegation. Women in our country contribute to diverse sectors to run the economy and their efforts should be recognized internationally.”

The proposed priority areas to be discussed are very much in line with my expectations.” Raveena is also a single mother to two daughters. She had adopted the two girls at the age of just 21.

The actress’ efforts for protecting the girl child is worth mentioning. She collaborated with likes of UNICEF, Cry, White Ribbon Alliance for safe motherhood. Through the help of Spina Bifida Association and Smile foundation she provided shelter to 30 girls in her own house and built an orphanage in Vasai for them after they were asked to leave by their landlord.
