" Passion for education and equality drives my work and vision. Through volunteering, NGO engagement, and initiatives like Lab on Wheels, I have seen the transformative power of knowledge in underrepresented communities. Being a Millennium Fellow will help me amplify these efforts, connect with change makers worldwide, and align my projects with the UNAI principles and SDGs. I am excited to gain collaborative skills, deepen my impact, and create innovative solutions that empower individuals and inspire sustainable progress. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Here to Share
the idea of my project is that i want to create a safe space for women, where they can come and share their experiences that they faced on gender inequality, unhealthy or toxic working environments for women, domestic violence, educational problems, etc. I will try to partner with a local media and help in amplifying these voices.. I will also like to publish a book by compiling a variety of these stories to read so that people can be more aware and show the community a women's point of view in these kind of situations which will further empower more women to talk about her problems and help men in realising the kind of impact that these situations can have on a person. this will promote community responsibility, raise awareness and foster empathy leading to cultural shifts.
