" Driven by collaboration and cross cultural engagement, the UN Millennium Fellowship is a great opportunity to participate in global dialogue and foster change. Working alongside other participants in my cohort will enable me to further understand varying perspectives on global issues. The Millennium Fellowship is the first step in driving impactful change on a local level. I am excited to meet students from all over the world driven by their passions for change. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: SustainHer Sip n' Thrift
SustainHer is a project created by Millennium Fellows who care about bringing
sustainability and women’s advocacy together. We’re teaming up across universities in Vienna to host thrift and donation events where students can exchange, buy, or donate clothes — while also creating space for open, honest conversations about women’s experiences on campus. Through these events, we hope to cut down on waste, support local women’s shelters, and build stronger, more supportive communities for women.
