" I am passionate about women empowerment and education for all. Working in these two fields does not only require leadership skills but time management too. Millennium Fellowship would provide me a platform to sharpen my creative and management skills, so I can enhance the impact of the social work I am doing and thus reaching out to more and more women and girls.
