" As a young leader who wants to positively impact my community and the world, contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals is the best way to make the world a better place. To address global challenges, I understand that it is necessary to be a lifelong learner, a change-maker who works with others to make the world a better place.
Therefore, I believe the Millennium Fellowship is one of the best platforms where I can be inspired, learn and network with other like-minded young leaders and mentors worldwide. This is crucial to strengthen my leadership and bring positive changes to my community and the world in general. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Eco Elite Initiatives
Eco Elite Initiatives is a social impact project that aims to sensitize communities about the impact of plastic pollution and empower young people on efficient plastic waste recycling into eco-friendly building materials such as bricks and paving blocks.
Through this project, I want to change people's perception of plastic waste to sustainably reduce plastic waste and pollution in my community.
