" The Millennium Fellowship is important to me because it provides visibility to the work we have carried out through different projects, something often difficult to achieve. This platform helps amplify ideas that emerge from communities outside major cities, proving that meaningful change can also be driven from the margins. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Escuela de Invierno: Nuevas Voces Globales
The 'Escuela MONUCH: Nuevas Voces Globales' project's objective is to strengthen development education and global citizenship education through Model UN (MUN) as an educational tool.
During the fellowship we could achieve our goals throughout the execution of the project by incorporating the values, good practices and criteria provided by the programme. We could reach a massive attendance during the deployment of our workshops and activities (more than a 100 students from different parts of Santiago) and we could work with a group of public high school students that met us in the first and second edition of the 'Escuela MONUCH:Nuevas Voces Globales' to expand our vision of this project.
