" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it offers a unique opportunity to connect my passion for healthcare and community service with a global network of change makers. It gives me a platform to refine my leadership, collaborate with peers across different fields and turn ideas into impactful projects that advances Sustainable Development Goals. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Healthy Living for All
My project focuses majorly on Health and how people can take control of their health. Good Health is very paramount to the productivity of the individuals, the community and the nation. My project involved an outreach to preach the
news of good health to the members of a rural community.
I did this by partnering with the rural community as the outreach took place in the premises. The outreach focused on educating the people on nutrition and how balanced diet should be incorporated into their nutrition, exercise and how
it impacts health. It involved educating individuals on the measures to prevent the spread of communicable diseases and how to reduce the
prevalence of terminal illnesses as well. It also involved educating them on participating in periodic body check ups like blood pressure tests
and blood sugar tests to ensure that they are knowledgeable of their health status and how to effectively manage their health.
