Millennium Fellowship Project: WISE MEDs, HEALTHIER LIFE
WISE MEDs: Healthier Life is a medication literacy initiative aimed at promoting the safe and responsible use of medicines within local communities. The project focuses on educating people about proper dosage, adherence to prescriptions, and the risks of self-medication. During the Millennium Fellowship, I conducted three community outreach sessions and collaborated with a few student associations to spread awareness. Through simple educational materials and interactive discussions, the project helped community members better understand how to use medications safely and protect their health
