Dressed all in black, the actress was seen crouching down and talking to a mother and several children as she scribbled dutifully on a notepad.

She was also seen comforting some young boys as she was surrounded by several of the refugees at the camp.

Angelina began three months of treatments prior to undergoing a preventative double mastectomy, back in February, and continued her humanitarian work through them.

At the beginning of February she started with a ‘nipple delay, which rules out disease in the breast ducts behind the nipple and draws extra blood flow to the area’.

Then just two weeks later she underwent the major surgery – an eight hour operation which sees the breast tissue removed before temporary fillers are put in place.

Then just over a month later Angelina was back to work with her humanitarian efforts, pictured in the Republic of Congo with British politician William Hague following her initial operation on March 26th.

On April 4th she then attended the Women in the World Summit in New York looking in good spirits, and on April 11th attended the G8 Summit in London, again with Hague.

After those engagements, Angelina had her final operation, her breasts reconstructed with implants on April 20.

Then on April 27th, the mother-of-six completed the medical process and was told that the surgery was a success and her chances of contracting breast cancer have now been reduced from 87% to less than 5%.

While she supported her partner Brad Pitt on the red carpet in Berlin for the premiere of his new movie World War Z earlier this month, this is the first time Angelina was been seen engaging in her humanitarian work since completing the operations.

Earlier this week, Brad told GMA that it was ‘business as usual’ for his partner following her treatment.

Pitt said:’Her focus now is that all people have access to the testing. If you do your research it doesn’t have to be scary, it can be an empowering thing.’

Angelina revealed her decision to have the double mastectomy in a New York Times article last month where she wrote that she had taken the difficult decision so she could tell her children ‘they don’t need to fear they will lose me’.

Brad spoke about his fiancée’s decision to have the invasive treatment as he carried out promotional duties for new movie World War Z in New York this week.

He said: ‘It’s business as usual, she’s doing great. When she wrote that piece, we had already come out the other end.

It was a beautiful thing to watch and her focus now is that all people have access to the testing.

‘If you do your research, it doesn’t have to be scary, it is an empowering thing… I’ve been moved by every stage of this.’

Angelina’s mother Marcheline Bertrand died of ovarian cancer at the age of 56 in 2007 and her maternal grandmother also had the disease.

Angelina said she carries a defective BRCA-1 gene that puts her at high risk of developing breast and ovarian cancers.

Her doctor said that the test that turned up the faulty gene link led her to have both of her healthy breasts removed to try to avoid the same fate.

Writing in an editorial piece entitled ‘My Medical Choice’ in the New York Times, Angelina explained her decision, revealing that she had the initial procedure on February 16 before having the reconstruction operation on April 20.

Meanwhile, Brad also said this week that he owes rock singer Melissa Etheridge ‘a call’ after she appeared to criticise his partner decision to have the double mastectomy.

Singer-songwriter Etheridge, 52, survived a battle with breast cancer in 2005, and has the same BRCA-1 mutation as Angelina.
Etheridge said of her decision ‘I wouldn’t call it the brave choice. I actually think it’s the most fearful choice you can make when confronting anything with cancer.

Etheridge claims it is lifestyle that determines whether the condition will activate, telling the Washington Blade: ‘It’s the stress that will turn that gene on or not’.

Brad claimed he wasn’t aware of Etheridge’s views, and told extratv.com ‘Oh, I didn’t know, I haven’t seen her…Melissa is an old friend of mine, so I’ll have to give her a call.’
