University of Nairobi | Nairobi, Kenya | Advancing SDG 5 & UNAI 3
" I am thrilled at the prospect of having access to a platform to not only table my contributions towards UNAI principles and SDG'S, but also engage with like minded individuals for change. Being a Millennium Fellow for me will be more than a prestigious opportunity: it will offer me a chance to enhance my skills, broaden my knowledge within and outside my professional field, and ultimately give back to the community that shaped who I am today.
