" My passion for medicine goes hand in hand with my commitment to human rights and social justice. Being part of the Millennium Fellowship excites me because it provides a platform to strengthen my leadership and advocacy for HIV awareness, community health and stigma reduction. I believe the Fellowship will empower me to transform my projects into sustainable impact, aligned with the SDGs, while learning collaboratively with peers equally dedicated to creating healthier, more inclusive societies.

Millennium Fellowship Project: Echoes of Self
The project i thought of doing it was based on SDG3 about health specifically mental health titled ECHOES OF SELF..i thought it as a target to help adolescents and youth because these age groups are faced with a lot of emotional and psychological crises..faced by echoes (repeating voices in their minds) that they are not worthy of living or not good enough..that's why i named it echoes of self..as i was thinking of the project i thought of it being a tool of advocacy to adolescents and youth on matters of mental health( how to face,conquer and deal with the silent echoes) because it all starts in the mind
