" "I believe real change starts with care and understanding. Through the Millennium Fellowship, I hope to turn my passion for health and education into meaningful action, working alongside others to create a community where support, knowledge, and empowerment make a lasting difference." "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Anondo Dhara
Anondo Dhara focuses on establishing enjoyment, resilience, and unity amongst the students of the Asian University for Women (AUW). We believe mental well-being to be as essential as physical health, and conversely much neglected, especially in the turmoil of academic life. Students silently support stress, anxiety, isolation, and self-doubt. With Anondo Dhara, we aim to create a space whereby the student might feel free to express his/her feelings, learn healthy stress management skills, and support each other.
We work to organize smaller workshops on mental health, awareness sessions, and group meet sessions where students can talk and practice self-care and build resilience together. We intend to develop a more resilient and empathetic AUW community whereby students do not have to withstand the trying times alone.
With this initiative, we want to create small waves of change so that mental health becomes important enough to be mentioned, just like physical health.
