" Structured format and the skills I will acquire from this fellowship will help me realise my future goal for establishing and contributing in a NGO, and having a social impact towards a sustainable development goal I am passionate about will give me purpose. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Lifeline: Community Well Being Program

As part of our project, we organised a innovative event on our campus called Secret Box, where the students could put in their mental health related queries into a box anonymously, and later these queries were taken up by our on campus psychologist who engaged the students in a discussion on these queries while also giving her professional opinion, later the students were divided into smaller groups and each group further discuused these queries in their groups, this helped students talk about mental health in safe space without judgement or stigma, the event saw participation from over 70 students. Apart from the on campus event we also collaborated with a local NGO who work with underprivilaged children and conducted a workshop on menstrual health, hygiene and different menstrual products, and also cleared student doubts on on the topic.
