" We are all citizens of our shared planet; taking care of our environment is thus our most imperative priority. I'm excited to be a Millennium Fellow to do my part in both directly helping the ecosystem my campus resides upon and educating other local students on how they may continue these efforts in their own home communities. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: The COAST initiative (Coastal Outreach, Action, Stewardship & Training)
The COAST initiative (Coastal Outreach, Action, Stewardship & Training) is a comprehensive education program led by Millennium Fellow Tyler Jaewon Kim. The project aims to create targeted curriculum and other interactive educational materials for youth residing in coastal communities. Inspired by his hometown in Southern California and his campus located on the Normandy seafront, the program is truly global in its scope. Through online content ranging from basic environmental science to advice on navigating and influencing local legislation, this program will help equip the next generation with the tools necessary to combat the growing threat of climate change and environmental degradation.
About the Millennium Fellow
Tyler Jaewon Kim is a rising second-year student studying in the dual Bachelor of Arts degree program between Columbia University and Institut d'études Politiques de Paris (Sciences Po Paris). He was born in Seoul, South Korea and completed his primary and secondary studies in Southern California. Currently studying social sciences and political humanities in Le Havre, France, Tyler is excited to expand his perspectives and build upon his life-long interest in public policy. This has translated itself into Tyler's completion of two professional internship experiences this previous summer: first at the state level with the California State Assembly, and secondly at the federal level with the U.S. House of Representatives. Tyler aspires to explore future professional opportunities with the skills he'll acquire through the UN Millennium Fellowship with the eventual goal of applying to law school following the completion of his undergraduate studies.
