" If you do not inspire, you'll expire. This quote is very self-explanatory, but it is the quote that pushed me to design a solution to a problem I identified and faced myself, as well as apply for the Millennium Fellowship. I'm excited about my admission as a Millennium Fellow and the change I will make. I'm excited about the skills I will acquire from the fellowship and the like-minded individuals I will meet along this journey. I am working on the problem of inadequate mental, moral, and sex education in basic and high schools, and the lack of financial education, tech, and leadership training in high schools and colleges. I do this because I faced some of these problems and realised many people lack this knowledge in these fields. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: EduGo

My community is made up of around 400 people. One of the biggest challenges we face is the lack of access to quality education. This gap has left many young people with few options for their future. In recent years, many youths, some as young as 12, have dropped out of school to work as motorbike riders for wealthier outsiders who own the bikes. While this provides short-term income, it has led to serious issues like rising school dropout rates, increased accidents, and even theft. This situation has troubled me deeply. For the past two years, I’i've been thinking about how to create a lasting solution using the knowledge and skills I’i've gained so far. That’s how EduGo was born. EduGo is an education-centered initiative designed to help young people in my community stay in school and prepare for a better future. The goal is to provide mentorship, basic literacy and numeracy support, and practical skills training that connects education to real-life opportunities. By building a system that promotes continuous learning, personal growth, and access to better alternatives, EduGo aims to give young people the tools they need to thrive without having to abandon their education for unsafe, short-term jobs.
