University of Ibadan | Ibadan, Nigeria | Advancing SDG 4, SDG 10, SDG 17 & UNAI 3
" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it will enable me to further my work in combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and contributing to SDG3 and SDG4—good health and quality education for all. This fellowship is an amazing opportunity to learn from fellow change makers, refine effective solutions, and advance community-led initiatives addressing some of the most critical health and education challenges of our times. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Awareness Creation of SDGs
My project focused on educating young students about the SDGs, especially concentrating on SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being.
I visited a secondary school with some other fellows on my campus, where we introduced the students to the 17 SDGs and then I discussed Lupus, an autoimmune disease that seldom finds attention from the general public.
Taking Lupus as a real example helped the students understand better the importance of health awareness, early detection, and community support, thereby connecting global goals with real-life health challenges

Abraham Ogunlowo is a self-motivated and resilient Pharmacy Student at the University of Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria; same state where he was born. He has had interest in the Healthcare Sector from a young age and a rather sad experience about Autoimmune diseases with his Aunt kindled his passion for Good health & Well-being (SDG4). This translates into his participation in volunteering activities, he has volunteered in Health fairs, health walks, movements and outreaches. Abraham envisages becoming a professional in the Pharmacy field where he will be able to Discover, Develop and Formulate drugs that will cure Terminal diseases, contributing to achieving Sustainable Development Goals.
