Millennium Fellowship Project: Education for all
The Education for all project aims to raise awareness about tertiary education opportunities to Congolese students in the Democratic Republic of the Congo by providing necessary information that can allow them to be eligible and grab the opportunities available to them. Batusua had already initiated a project in her high school in August and six students showed up and were interested in the program. She wishes to continue working on the project so she can reach the quota she has set of 20 students fully determined and prepared to embrace tertiary education and excel, during the period of August -November, in order for her to measure success of the project.
