Indeed, these journeys can present myriad perspectives from which young people can grow and learn. However, it can also lead to fractured or conflicted sense of selfs during the crucial stage of identity formation in their psychosocial development. " Millennium Fellowship Project: Global Citizens Conscious for Change Globalisation and social mobilisation have allowed many young people to live, study, and develop in different countries from an early age. This is a great opportunity to develop and learn from varied perspectives. However, such lifestyle changes during the important time of identity formation can lead to disassociated identities and feelings of insecurity, threatening young global citizen’s subjective well-being and making them feel like outsiders wherever they are. Therefore, To mitigate feelings of isolation and disassociation that may arise from cross-cultural experiences among young adults going through crisis during their psychological identity development process. We have collected data from 200+ participants and are currently in the process of publishing A handbook, combining expert opinions, scientific evidence and stories from individuals that we engaged with. Future global citizens shall be able to obtain insights from this handbook when encountering culture-related identity crisis.

UNITED NATIONS ACADEMIC IMPACT AND MCN PROUDLY PRESENT TABE MICHAEL ARREY, A MILLENNIUM FELLOW FOR THE CLASS OF 2023. University of Buea | Buea, Cameroon | Advancing SDG 4 & UNAI 9 Millennium Fellowship Project: Sustainable Buea: Empowering youths to achieve the SDGs Today, more than half the population on the planet is made of young people under the age of 30. Through their creativity and energy , young people can bring about generational change, which can challenge the status quo and achieve positive outcomes rapidly. As such, the lifestyles (values, behaviours, attitudes, mindset) and capabilities (knowledge and skills) of this generation will come to define the world tomorrow . The SDGs are a universal agenda for “Transforming our world.” To achieve this transformation, there must be a rethink on the approaches of the era that left youths out of the process. Recognizing the need to partner with youths,educating them provides a faster progress rate at achieving the 17 SDG target. Sadly a lot of young people in many communities know nothing about sustainable development , it's importance or the SDGs and so the progress of developing a sustainable world where the future generations needs are not compromised is greatly hindered. As it stands many do not know the importance or see the need to engage in developing a sustainable future simply because they either do not know anything about it, or they have not been educated or informed properly about the world they live in or because, they have not been empowered to do so. The Aim of this project is to "Educate young people about the SDGs and empower them to take active roles in achieving these global objectives within their community. This project focuses mainly on youths in the south west region of Cameroon-Buea Key components of the project Awareness Campaigns: Most schools and universities in our community don't really teach students about the UN SDGs. 1 out of 10 students, young people sampled in my community know about sustainable development and the SDGs. They are only mentioned in some subjects and learners don't pay any attention to them, talk less of being interested in engaging with these goals. Launching awareness campaigns with the use of social media, community events, and school outreaches will raise awareness about the SDGs and the importance of youth involvement in achieving them. These campaigns are aimed at bringing youths together who want to take on active roles in impacting their community and mobilizing other youths to take part. SDG Workshops and Education: Organize workshops, seminars, and educational sessions to introduce local youths to the SDGs, explaining what each goal represents and its relevance to the community (Buea). Emphasize how small actions can contribute to achieving these goals. Community Action Projects: Encourage youth to identify specific SDGs that are most relevant to their community and develop community action projects aligned with these goals. For example, projects could focus on waste management and clean up campaigns,improving access to clean water, promoting sustainable agriculture, or enhancing education opportunities. Youth Leadership and Skills Development:* Provide leadership training and skill-building workshops, symposiums at colleges and universities to equip young people with the tools needed to lead and implement their SDG-related projects effectively. Partnerships and Collaboration: Collaborate with colleges, local schools, NGOs, businesses, and government agencies to leverage resources, knowledge, and support for SDG-related initiatives. Monitoring and Evaluation: Continuously assess the impact of the projects on the community and track progress toward achieving the selected SDGs. Share success stories and lessons learned to inspire and motivate other young people. Expected Outcomes: - Increased awareness and understanding of the SDGs among youths in local communities around in Buea. - Youth-led projects that contribute to local sustainable development and address specific SDGs. - Empowered and confident young leaders who actively participate in community initiatives. - A sense of responsibility and global citizenship among Buea's youth, leading to a sustainable and prosperous future for the city and its inhabitants. By educating and engaging youths in practical, hands-on projects, "Sustainable Buea: Empowering Youth to Achieve the SDGs" has the potential to make a significant positive impact on the community while fostering a generation of responsible and engaged global citizens.

A recent health survey by the ministry of health in Kenya showed that HIV/AIDs has been on the rise in the past two years. 14 to 28 years being the most prevalent age group and more in females. Additionally, it was established to be prevalent in the poor population groups in Nairobi and its outskirts. The aim of the project is to promote health education and promotion of HIV/AIDs spread and prevention, contraception, menstrual health, and stigma on unintended pregnancy outside the school curriculum. HIV/AIDs was inculcated into Kenya's health system more than 15 years ago. Initially, the impact was significant. However, we have realized most Kenyan students view HIV/AIDs theoretically and study to pass exams. Therefore, we found it important to spread awareness about the disease in a setting different from the academic one by using social media brand influencers on tik-tok, Instagram, and Twitter and designing cartoons and skits to create awareness. The project also aims to recruit at least 200 students at the University of Nairobi to carry out outreach programs in home residences.

The dialogue around this topic is not something new but we hope to bring in a new approach.

" Millennium Fellowship Project: Project PonVizhi Project PonVizhi, consisting of eight undergraduate students, is an organisation that aims to raise awareness about sexual assault, domestic abuse, and child sexual harassment in particular. We aim to educate people on the steps that can be taken to report harassment and seek help in terms of their mental well-being. The target audience of the program is school and college students. When we were school students, there were no committees or legal mechanisms that provided redressals to child sexual harassment survivors or conducted events to spread awareness on gender rights and sexual harassment prevention in our schools or in other educational establishments like coaching centers. Cases of child sexual harassment often go unreported. We seek to raise awareness among kids and young adults (both girls and boys this time, as our educational systems often leave boys out of this) on what counts as harassment, because abuse comes in all forms, and goes much deeper than “good touch and bad touch”. We intend to push educational establishments to have POSH centres. Also, if possible, educate parents, teachers, and guardians on how to respond to children when they confide in them. As a survivor of sexual assault, it is difficult to navigate a world that turns a blind eye towards victims. Through this program, we aspire to create a community that will provide a safe space and support for people, particularly, girls and women who have been through abuse and sexual assault.
