" I wanted to be part of the Millennium Fellowship because I see it as a platform to address the inequalities and societal issues I've observed throughout my life. As a teenager, I often wondered how these challenges could be solved, and the fellowship gives me an opportunity to explore meaningful solutions. Additionally, I am eager to learn how people from other parts of the world tackle their problems, with the hope that their approaches could offer valuable insights to help my community. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: SPARK

Spark is a social responsibility platform designed to foster collaboration and teamwork in addressing environmental, social, and economic challenges, aligned with SDG 17: Partnership for the Goals. The app empowers individuals, groups, and communities to engage in initiatives such as educational programs for underprivileged children, women empowerment events, and other social causes. Through partnerships with government organizations, NGOs, and corporate social responsibility funds, users earn credits for their participation, which can be redeemed for rewards or recognition certificates. Spark also includes a community section to promote discussion and collaboration, while partnerships with companies and public figures enhance post-event engagement. The platform will feature global news on climate change, offer volunteering opportunities, and host tech-related events that encourage girls to pursue careers in technology. By connecting users to social networks and providing real-time impact tracking, Spark ensures that every action contributes to a broader global impact.
