" I believe true education is not about memorization but mastery. Through the Millennium Fellowship, I am thrilled to work with other change makers, amplify my project on healthcare education, and contribute meaningfully to advancing SDG4: Quality Education "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Model United Nations PTE
This project is an academic simulation where students role-play as diplomats representing different countries in United Nations committees, engaging in debates on global issues. The simulation helps participants develop essential skills such as public speaking, negotiation, research, and teamwork, while also providing a deeper understanding of international relations and global policymaking. By immersing students in realistic diplomatic scenarios, the project promotes critical thinking, collaboration, and awareness of worldwide challenges, preparing them for leadership roles and active citizenship.
