" "I want to provide opportunities for those women who believe that they have no one on their side and cannot fend for themselve. Being a Millennim Fellow will not only allow me to make connections with those with similar interests to mine, it will also allow me to give these women an opportunity for change." "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Education for all Women
My project falls under the 4th Sustainable Development Goal of the United Nations. It will specifically focus on providing learning materials to women of all ages in different South American countries. This project aims to accomplish issues relating inequality for girls and women and starting with South America which is a small spectrum for what I would like to accomplish in the future. My main goal is to provide these women with resources and materials that would allow them to learn those things that men in their country do not have any limitations on. The goal with this project is to fight gender inequality and provide educational resources in and around South America.
