" "I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it provides a unique platform to collaborate with global change makers who share a passion for driving social impact. Being part of this fellowship allows me to amplify my efforts toward advancing the Sustainable Development Goals while honing my leadership skills and creating meaningful change within my community. I do the work I do because I believe in the power of collective action to create a more equitable, sustainable, and inclusive world for future generations." "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Educating girls in secondary school
The project focuses on gender equality, particularly encouraging young females to pursue courses traditionally seen as male-dominated, such as engineering and mathematics. The target audience was mostly secondary school girls preparing for university. I collaborated with the WAAW Foundation, which was a positive and interactive experience. The students were engaged and quickly adapted to a simple mathematics logic we taught them. Moving forward, the project aims to encourage more students and expand outreach to additional schools.
