" Seeing friends and neighbors give up on their dreams to take dangerous paths has shaped who I am. I want to create spaces where curiosity, knowledge, and guidance reach those whose voices often go unheard. Through mentoring, youth programs, and small community projects, I've realized that even small, quiet actions can spark hope and open doors. Every conversation, workshop, and shared skill is a step toward helping others imagine possibilities beyond what seems immediately possible. The Millennium Fellowship matters to me because it’s a chance to scale this impact, connect with change makers, and learn how to turn listening and sharing into real, lasting change. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Roots & Wings
Roots & Wings is a student-led movement at UM6P founded during the Millennium Fellowship to empower youth through dialogue, reflection, and meaningful action.
Each month, the project explores a social or environmental theme through workshops, debates, and podcast episodes, creating a safe space for students to express themselves, engage critically, and initiate change.
By connecting awareness with action, Roots & Wings aims to build a new generation of conscious, collaborative, and impactful change makers.
About the Millennium Fellow
Hamza Koujili grew up in Morocco, where he saw too many dreams drift away through paths he couldn’t accept, like illegal migration. At Mohammed VI Polytechnic University, he studies process engineering, but his curiosity always reaches beyond the classroom. He quietly seeks ways to give light to those whose voices are unheard, creating spaces where knowledge and guidance can reach others. Every project, every conversation with young people, shapes how he understands responsibility and possibility. Driven by reflection, action, and a desire to open doors for others, he moves forward learning, creating, and connecting, quietly shaping change in his community.
