Millennium Fellowship Project: Sexual and Reproductive health awareness Campaign
Organized a team of volunteers in Ngoketunja Northwest Region Cameroon, in Bambalang, a Community plagued by the ongoing anglophone crisis with significantly poor knowledge of sexual health evidenced by the high prevalence of sexually transmitted infections.
I trained 4 volunteers on the subject matter and public speaking. We then reached out to 3 secondary schools and churches for appointments which we got and proceeded to educate over 500 young people on sexuality and best practices that ensure academic focus and success
