" The sense of giving back to the community influenced me , as a young lady who lives in a rural areas I pay attention to what is happening in the community so having to be part of the fellowship will equip me with skills that will help me to implement the ideas that I have and at the same time it will boost my leadership skills which will make the the sense of engaging with the community easier "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Plastic Action Project
Plastic Action Project is a student-led initiative at LUANAR aimed at combating plastic pollution in Mitundu community. From September to December 2025, we will conduct a baseline survey to assess knowledge, attitudes, and practices on plastic management, implement targeted awareness campaigns with hands-on activities, and then carry out a follow-up survey to measure change. Our measurable goal is to reach at least 500 community members, achieve a 40% increase in correct plastic-waste handling practices, and establish at least one active community group championing sustainable plastic management.
