Millennium Fellowship Project: Safe Futures: Education, Dignity and Care
Safe Futures is a campus-led initiative The “Safe Futures” initiative is conducted in partnership with HNLU’s Millennium Fellows. It involved direct interaction with students through thematic workshops, mentorship sessions, and awareness campaigns across selected schools. The program structure is divided into the following components:
• Education and Mentorship: Monthly sessions for students aged 10–16 focusing on academic support, awareness of rights, and moral education. HNLU student volunteers acted as mentors, offering a safe and supportive environment for open learning.
