" My passion for advancing public health, particularly in rural communities, is driven by a desire to bridge knowledge gaps and inspire healthier lifestyles. The Millennium Fellowship offers a unique platform to amplify my voice, sharpen my skills, and align my work with the SDGs to create lasting community impact. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Youth Health
Youth Health is a Health Awareness and Advocacy project targeted towards the youth demographic. The project aims to educate young people on their mental health, and their reproductive and sexual health. For a wider reach, I plan on partnering with other youth-centered NGOs like BetterHer Africa and Action Group on Adolescent Health (AGAH) to embark on outreaches into schools, the market, and other high-density regions. Within August-December 2025, I plan to sensitize 200 youths on their mental and Reproductive/Sexual Health. I also plan to conduct review sessions with open-ended questions so as to get feedback from the people reached out to. Importantly, I plan to assess how well they understood the sensitization sessions through active recall.
