" I see this platform as an opportunity to hone new skill sets building professional relations with alumni, interacting with motivated peoples and integrating new work methods. This would definitely enhance my passionate towards engaging youth in understanding and promoting the knowledge of the governance system of the country. I believe that engaging and acquainting with the governance is the only way to build youths a catalyst to the progress of a country. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Panchhi
Project Panchhi helps to enhance the understanding of the local governance among the youth and maintain transparency and accountability on the part of the public bodies. The project aims to fulfil the gap of transparency in public bodies and maintain effective channelling of information in the public domain during and beyond the crisis period.
The goal is to create awareness to about 200 lives about the working pattern of the local governance by December 2020 and to help improving access to public information on the part of the public institutions. The project mission is to help the local institution function effectively and efficiently, thereby, contributing to SDG 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions.
