" My passion for storytelling, advocacy, and cultural exploration drives my work in broadcasting and journalism. Being a Millennium Fellow will allow me to amplify my efforts in promoting gender equality, women’s empowerment, and the fight against gender-based violence. Through this fellowship, I hope to collaborate with like-minded change makers, strengthen my leadership skills, and create impactful media projects that inspire awareness and action. The experience will help me align my work more closely with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, while expanding my capacity to use media as a tool for social change and global connection "
