" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because it allows me to connect my personal experiences with collective action. I do this work driven by the belief that promoting gender equality and social justice can transform communities and create a more inclusive world. "
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.
About the Millennium Fellow
Javiera Arriagada grew up in El Bosque, a neighborhood in Santiago, Chile, alongside her parents, two brothers, and several beloved pets who continue to be part of her daily life. Her education in Catholic schools shaped both her curiosity and her critical perspective on how institutions influence people’s lives. Inspired by the values of solidarity and commitment learned from her family, Javiera decided to study sociology at the University of Chile, focusing on gender, memory, and public policy as ways to build more just and inclusive communities.
