" The most intriguing aspect of this Fellowship is the networking opportunities provided by webinars and Fellows sessions. I also wanted to be a part of a global community of like-minded people working to achieve long-term development goals.
It will help me to improve my communication and leadership skills, and I am confident that it will provide me with a wealth of knowledge and experiences that will shape me into a better person and enable me to expand my social impact. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: E-cycle from Home
The project is based in the Chittagong University campus area. Here, most of the households dispense disregarded electronic products (E-waste) with municipal solid waste through the dustbins they have at home. This project supplied jute bags to families in the campus area intending to lessen this practice.
