" Last year, I came to know about the United Nations Millennium Fellowship programme. And I identified this programme as a great opportunity for me to shape my passion to work for quality education effectively. This distinction holds huge significance for me as it provides a platform for collaboration, learning, and worldwide networking opportunities. As a member of the Millennium Fellowship, I will have access to resources, top-notch leadership development training, and mentorship.These abilities will make me a more capable leader who can influence society and make a difference. Through weekly training sessions, the fellowship will assist me in improving my leadership, project management, and sustainable development abilities. My current and upcoming social impact efforts will be more widely known and acknowledged. Acknowledgement will draw in more funding, alliances, and assistance, enabling me to develop and enhance the projects I pursue. I will discover inspiration within myself to effect social change through my interactions with Millennium Fellows and participation in various projects. In addition, I see this distinction as a lifetime dedication to social influence. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Learning Seed
Our project “The Learning Seed” was designed to help the underprivileged children of a marginalized village named Tior Gaon for our initiative where poverty-stricken families live at a subsistence level. Millennium Fellows of Shahjalal University of Science and Technology participate in this initiative directly in the families to facilitate Quality Education (SDG 4). As we are all students, we, unfortunately, couldn’t do much for the children due to financial constraints. However, we purchased pen, writing sheets and some chocolates as a mood-booster and distributed among the children. Later, we met the parents and engaged in an inclusive discussion about the importance of education as well as its private and social benefits to spread awareness among them. By promoting both educational resources and awareness, Learning Seed plants the foundation for sustainable change, stronger communities, and brighter futures aligned with SDG 4.
