" I seek to achieve sustainability and leadership through my project. I'm confident that the tools provided by the Millennium Fellowship will help me create a greater impact in my community and raise awareness about animal welfare. I'm thrilled to know that I am about to fulfill a dream I’ve had since childhood and hope to inspire more people to join this important cause. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Animabilidad
Animabilidad is a project dedicated to animal welfare and environmental awareness, aligned with several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This initiative aims to promote proper veterinary care, ensure favorable living conditions for animals, and raise awareness about respecting natural habitats, particularly for those who have been victims of illegal trafficking and cannot live alongside humans.
Animabilidad also encompasses marine life, aligning with SDG 14: Life Below Water, and connects animal welfare to human health and well-being (SDG 3), highlighting how caring for animals can have a positive impact on public health and emotional well-being.
