" The skills that I think I will be able to develop are coordination with a group and teamwork, with these skills I hope that patience comes with it. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: S.O.School
S.O.School’s aim was to create a community where students could express their feelings and hardships regarding mental health specifically linked to the challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic has brought. Within August-November 2021 we created a weekly podcast where students could talk and learn about this important topic; as well as a downloadable manual that will aim to serve as a diary, planner, and mood-tracker, to help students identify the real causes of their daily stress.
About the Millennium Fellow
María Fernanda Medina is a bright young woman whos passionate about climate change and mental health. With only 20 years old, she decided to make a project regarding mental health in students since she saw a big issue in her community. Although she's studying international relations at the moment, that doesn't mean that she can't help her community.
