" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow as I strongly believe this to be an excellent platform to express my views. It will help me connect to like minded peers and people working on the same field towards this and many other social causes. It will provide me with an opportunity to share my ideas on an international level and get expert opinions. I will also get to exercise my entrepreneurial skills and grow as a person, grow as a leader. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Team Sustenance
Our project is based on SDG Goal 2: Zero Hunger
We live in a world where basic human rights such as education, water and sanitation are restricted. This includes food rights. World hunger remains a serious problem, with one-third of the world's population suffering from malnutrition. Hunger and malnutrition are two factors that limit sustainable development. This project is run as an initiative to combat hunger.
