" I am very passionate about the environment. I believe that persistent work by dedicated individuals and institutions could help mitigate the current environmental situation. I am unsure about the solutions and their subsequent execution, but being part of the Millennium Fellowship will help me develop and enhance my skills. The skills I gain from the Millennium Fellowship will make my social impact on the environment more tangible and aligned with the UNAI principles and SDGs. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: The Campus Keepers
Our college consists of a lot of migrant workers who work in a variety of fields like gardening, cleaning, security, food, etc. However, they are not the only migrants on campus, as many faculty members are also migrants. We observe a massive difference between how these people are treated and viewed by both the management and students. This creates a hierarchy of jobs. We would like to interview as many people as possible to understand the issue. It would help us analyze the extent and causes and come up with solutions. We want to make a difference in society by first making a difference in the society we live in.
