UNITED NATIONS ACADEMIC IMPACT AND MCN PROUDLY PRESENT MAY LOUISE DITTEL, A MILLENNIUM FELLOW FOR THE CLASS OF 2020.
Columbia University | New York, United States | Advancing SDG 5 & UNAI 7
" I am humbled to have been selected as part of the Millennium Fellowship, because it will provide me with the opportunities to expand my own horizons, skills, and networks regarding the project I hold dear to my heart. Political discourse too often lacks listening to each other - and I hope not only to make an impact on my university community, but to have the chance to listen to others around me, enabling me to advance my goals even more. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: s(H)e
s(H)e is a project founded by four undergraduate students at Sciences Po Paris (Le Havre campus) in February 2019. It is based on the belief that the feminist movement is in dire need of more dialogue on issues that usually are usually not covered by mainstream media and that bring to the fore intersectional perspectives. s(H)e's aim is to give people a platform to voice their opinions and to enable exchange within diverse communities. In order to fulfill this mission, they root their project in four core values: Intersectionality, Inclusivity, Safe Space, Dialogue.
