Millennium Fellowship Project: पुनरुत्थान: Enhancing Youth's Mental and Reproductive well being
Recognizing the often-overlooked significance of mental and reproductive health in the overall well-being, especially in a developing third-world country like ours, we aim to bridge the gap in access to comprehensive well-being. Our topic is aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Good Health & Well Being) and UNAI principle 6 (Human Rights).
In our group, someone silently grappled with mental health struggles, navigating the isolation of unspoken pain. Recognizing that many peers faced similar battles, we've come together, making mental health the heartbeat of our project.
In our region, there is a taboo surrounding discussions on teenage pregnancy, unsafe abortion, sexual abuse, and other aspects of sexual health. This is why our project, 'पुनरुत्थान' (Revitalize), was born. It is a deliberate choice fueled by our shared commitment to addressing the crucial challenges that impact young people. Young generation have the ability to adapt, learn and innovate solutions to overcome challenges in society. Thus, our project is targeted for young people.
Our mission is straightforward: reach out to those silently suffering, cultivating a space where understanding and assistance can thrive.
