" Being part of a global community of Fellows working towards the UN SDGs is both empowering and humbling at the same time. I firmly believe in the power of youth-led change for a more equitable future. As part of the future generation, the Millennium Fellowship is an excellent opportunity to create meaningful social impact. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Article - I
Article - I is a legal literacy project. We believe that for everyone to exercise their rights, they need to be aware of their legal rights and responsibilities. This is especially true of vulnerable communities like refugees and migrants. We aim to bridge this information gap, by collaborating with student communities to make them more aware of the challenges faced by these communities and make information about legal rights and responsibilities accessible to people.
