" I understand that building and sustaining an initiative aimed at achieving SDG 3 will require a range of essential skills. I believe the Millennium Fellowship will equip me with these skills — including strategic thinking, planning, effective communication, collaboration, and teamwork. I'm excited about the opportunity to learn from experts in various fields, connect with like-minded fellows, and ultimately make a meaningful impact. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Flow Without Fear

Flow Without Fear is a project that targets adolescence/secondary school girls at rural communities or public secondary schools. It’s all about educating and helping girls in these underserved communities learn about their periods in a healthy, open way, and making sure they have what they need to manage them safely. Many girls miss school during their periods because they can’t afford pads or feel embarrassed about it. I want to solve this problem by organizing interactive and fun workshops, where we talk honestly about menstrual health, particularly the alarm symptoms that could be indicative of disease processes of female reproductive system; clear up common myths, and teach how to make reusable pads. We’ll also give out reusable pad kits and train some active students to keep the teaching going and provide them a means they could contact us even after the project ends. This project is in-line with SDGs (3 & 5).

About the Millennium Fellow

Morayo Akinbile Qoyumah is an 18-year-old nursing student at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, currently in her third year. Born and raised in Ibadan, she studies in Ogbomosho, Oyo State, Nigeria. Though talented in many areas, she long sought purpose in her abilities. Discovering the Millennium Fellowship was a turning point, it helped her reflect, organize her thoughts, and shape her dreams into a clear vision. Since then, Morayo has been actively pursuing growth: studying, volunteering, and applying for programs that align with her goals. The Fellowship became the guide she didn’t know she needed to start her journey.
