" While I am deeply passionate about driving social change, I believe that as a Millennium Fellow I can achieve far more working with a team of fellow believers than I ever could alone. This fellowship offers me the opportunity to grow not only as a changemaker, but also as a collaborator. I am eager to develop the leadership and interpersonal skills needed to turn bold ideas into tangible action, and to help break down the fear that often holds people back from pursuing meaningful change. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Garnering Awareness for Sustainability Scientific Research
My project is about providing more insight into the sustainability research sector and highlighting its importance from a young age within the educational system is crucial to inspire the future generation to work in this field to drive change against climate change across all industries. I also worked with University staff to integrate more sustainability in the projects that was being provided to these kids. I will continue to work towards bringing the kids not only to the university campus but within the labs where top scientists are doing cutting edge research in the field.
