Millennium Fellowship Project: Thrive Together

Many people in our surroundings and slum areas have the skills like stitching, knitting, and crafting, but they don't know how to turn their skills into the income. At the same time, some people are financially unstable, they want to earn to meet the basic necessities of the life, but they don't have any skills. Our project aims to empower the both people in underprivileged areas. We will divide people into two groups. For those who have skills but don't know how to sell them, we will teach them how to showcase and sell their skills through social media. And we will connect them with people in the market who need their skills. On the other hand, we will arrange to teach those who have no skills at all, skills like kitchen gardening and handicrafts, so that they can start earning. This will not only provide them with a source of income, but the plants planted for kitchen gardening will also help to some extent in controlling the negative effects of climate change. This will help make them financially independent as well as promote a green and sustainable environment.
