Millennium Fellowship Project: Path Finders
"PathFinders is an initiative aimed at mitigating educational inequality for Chilean youth aged 15-24 in underprivileged areas. The project entails creating a website with comprehensive resources and information about the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), offering a pathway for these young individuals to access opportunities and resources critical for their education. By focusing on marginalized communities, PathFinders seeks to bridge the gap and provide equitable access to information, empowering the youth with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and contribute to a sustainable future."
