" Creativity and sustainability, fueled by volunteering spirit, drive my art and work. Being part of the Millennium Fellowship will enhance these skills. The skills I gain from the Millennium Fellowship will make a social impact on schools and my local community more tangible and aligned with the UNAI principles and SDGs. I am more than excited to increase my anticipatory competence by envisioning new ways of learning and creativity. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Her Voice Matters
Her Voice Matters initiatives is based on creating equitable and sustainable future where every girl in Nigeria has full autonomy over her future, life and health and eventually design a future that no longer tolerates gender discrimination/stereotypes through awareness, education, health and policy reform advocacy especially at the local level, to address the challenges faced by women and enact legal protections to secure their rights. Including the male gender was very important as they can also help in advocating for and supporting their female counterparts. Girls experiencing abuse or other issues can seek counselling, mentorship and peer support in a supportive environment.
