" Inclusiveness and Versatility drives me for aligning myself in various social development goals . By being a Millennium Fellow i will be able to develop skills working for the global community of building consensus, growing together to fulfill a vision that will belong to everyone not the leader only . This contentment of belongingness and creating change in the attitude through our project Parwaaz will provide us new heights in our social impact initiative and at the same time will teach me lessons of leadership, collective goal achievement and developing global networking. This will help me in future where I aspire to work for the country as a civil servant. I am really hoping that Millennium Fellowship will enhance my experience of social growth and community development . "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Parwaaz

Its aim is to destroy taboos around mental health and well-being and create an open space where students can speak freely and seek help without getting judged or labelled as abnormal people.
