" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it offers a unique opportunity to create a meaningful impact in society. Being part of a global community of change-makers allows me to collaborate, learn from diverse perspectives, and grow as a leader. The fellowship empowers me to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals and develop skills that will help me drive positive change. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Differently Enabled

The Millennium Fellows of the University of Eldoret (UoE) from Eldoret, Kenya, worked on a group project called ‘Differently Enabled’ that focused on mentoring learners living with disabilities, PWDs, to pursue S.T.E.M. related courses and career paths by creating awareness to the community to eradicate the stigma and stereotype towards them. To implement this, the cohort visited the Eldoret School for the hearing-impaired where the cohort mentored the Junior Secondary students and engaged them in co-curricular activities. The mentorship program focused on the branches of S.T.E.M. - Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Each of the fellows focused on one of the topics and gave their motivation, explained why we need S.T.E.M., their inspirations, and how the students themselves can make an impact by pursuing S.T.E.M. courses, so as to eliminate the idea of limitation towards them.
