" My interest in how technology develops rights and freedoms fuels my practice in the law, committed to developing frameworks to enable safety, equality, and accountability in the digital space. The Millennium Fellowship provides a special platform where this interest is converted into collective action with the UNAI principles and the Sustainable Development Goals. I anticipate working with an international community of Fellows to build inclusive, forward-thinking plans that manage critical challenges in cyberspace and work toward a safer digital tomorrow. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Project CyberSahara
Cyber Sahara is a digital legal awareness initiative aimed at bridging the gap between cyber laws and everyday citizens. We serve individuals who face online risks but lack the knowledge or confidence to seek help—such as victims of cyberbullying, online blackmail, impersonation, financial fraud, identity theft, and privacy violations. Our project empowers the community with practical, accessible information on digital rights, safe online practices, and legal remedies under the IT Act, 2000, and Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.
