" Through the Millennium Fellowship, I will be able to meet a variety of people from various backgrounds and with various viewpoints. We will all be working toward the same objective, which is to make a positive impact on the world. By learning from my peers and alumni, I'm hoping to acquire the necessary skills and gain fresh perspectives on my project in order to take my social impact to the next level. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Youth for Trees
I am a millennium fellow working on the project ‘Youth for Trees’ to provide education on tree planting and its benefits. This is to prevent environmental collapse through planning tree planting initiatives and drives. By educating and engaging students in primary and high school , we aim to cultivate environmental stewards and most importantly increase forest cover in order to curb global warming.
