" I have encountered alumnis of the Millennium Fellowship in my institution and I can see the progress they've made in their creativity and articulation of their different projects. I would love that for myself as it will empower and trained to be better. Being a Millennium Fellow will also enable me to be part of a community that we can share ideas and bring out better outcomes for our society "
Millennium Fellowship Project: GREYWATER ART
The project is on greywater reuse to ensure water management in cities. It is a good project to be adopted in the Affordable Housing programme in Kenya that aims at providing affordable housing facilities for people mostly in cities. The GREYWATER ART project aims at water management and drainage improvement. A decentralized water reuse system is to be constructed in the large storey buildings where the greywater collected will be filtered and disinfected for reuse in toilet flushing and cleaning.
