" My determination and dedication toward my objectives for society and the process of change-making are expressed in terms of coming together with other individuals of a similar mindset. Millennium Fellowship would allow me to enhance my skills and implement my thoughts into action.
In addition, it would also give me an opportunity to interact, network, and communicate with people from various countries, allowing me to learn so much more. I am looking forward to honing my skills and learning in the whole process. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: The “Not So Big” Project
The “not so big” project is an individual project in which I intended to understand how different factors like quality education and one’s mental and physical well-being has an impact on the way they function and how their happiness is based on some transient factors. The main focus of the project has been working towards gender equlaity in all aspects.
