Millennium Fellowship Project: Empowering Women's Education Through Career Counseling
We were working on a project, Empowering Women's Education through career counseling in which we developed a questionnaire and visited the local schools of girls. Over there we introduce career counseling to them and informed them about the different paths they can follow to get access. We had taken a questionnaire from them which were focussing their interest and the way forward. On another visit, we visited them again and get their insight about career counseling which were very impressive and with positive impact.
