Millennium Fellowship Project: Vita Nova Initiative
Vita Nova initiative is a health initiative founded by health enthusiasts who are passionate, solution driven, well meaning individuals, this initiative is aimed at addressing the lack of knowledge and awareness regarding health related issues among mostly young people. We recognized the negative and detrimental impacts poor health behavior have inflicted on our todays society, not only physical health but mental and emotional health inclusive. It is also evident that lack of knowledge about personal health has lead to individuals contacting diseases or illnesses which supposed to have been averted.
Having seen the dreadful and detrimental effects of this nonchalant behavior or lack of awareness towards health, this initiative is aimed at addressing this lingering concerns and enlightening young people about health issues and promote proper well-being. To have a broad scope we are looking forward to partner with other organisations.
