Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Evergreen
Project Evergreen:
●Our first activity was a *plantation drive* where we collaborated with the Green Youth Club of NDU to plant trees and promote a greener environment.
●The second activity was an *awareness session* in underprivileged schools. In these sessions we educated students about climate change ,its causes, impacts, and the steps that can be taken to address it.
●The third activity was a *cleanup drive* during which we cleaned the environment and encouraged people to take responsibility for keeping their surroundings clean and avoiding pollution.
●In the fourth activity we focused *donations for flood victims* . While carrying out all our activities, we simultaneously collected donations and later provided to support to those affected.
To maximize impact, we also used social media platforms such as Instagram,Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok. Through these we raised awareness by posting pictures, posters and videos highlighting both our activities and ways people can contribute to combating climate change.
About the Millennium Fellow
I am a driven and ambitious student of International Relations at the National Defense University in Islamabad. Hailing from Azad Kashmir and currently settled in Rawalpindi, I am deeply committed to advocating for fundamental human rights, particularly access to clean water. As an alumnus of the Aspire Leadership Program and a former Sports Secretary at Military College Sui Balochistan, I have demonstrated exceptional leadership skills and a strong passion for public service. With a keen interest in pursuing a career in the government sector through CSS, I aspire to serve in the Foreign Ministry, where I can leverage my knowledge and skills to contribute to Pakistan's diplomatic efforts and promote global cooperation.
