" Currently, the preservation of the environment is a global priority. Therefore, joining institutional efforts, calling young people to action by enabling green jobs and, above all, involving agricultural communities for sustainable development is necessary and is also an incentive to carry out my work. Being part of the Millennium Fellowship will be an experience that supports my knowledge and improves my leadership and cooperation skills. I'm excited because I will share this enriching experience with other young leaders within the framework of the promotion of the SDGs and the principles of UNAI. "
