Applications invited for Millennium Fellowship

About the organization:

The United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI) is an initiative that aligns institutions of higher education with the United Nations in supporting and contributing to the realization of United Nations goals and mandates, including the promotion and protection of human rights, access to education, sustainability and conflict resolution.

Millennium Campus Network (MCN), Inc., is a global student network advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. MCN programs convene, challenge, and celebrate student leadership for social impact.  The network, celebrating its 10th anniversary, has worked directly with over 5,500 young leaders from 300 universities through its programs. 

The Millennium Fellowship

The United Nations Academic Impact and MCN proudly present the Millennium Fellowship. The Fellowship is a semester-long leadership development program on your campus to take your social impact to the next level.  Access to world class training, connections, and recognition is just an application away.

In Fellowship sessions (a minimum of 8 convenings between August and November), Millennium Fellows convene on their respective campuses. During these sessions, Campus Directors will lead you through the MCN Action Toolkit - an adaptive curriculum to help you reflect on core values, hone skills, and take informed action for UN goals. The curriculum is experiential - it is meant to be applied to help you grow as a leader in real-time as you manage your Project. As a campus hub, you will get exposed to a variety of elements during the Fellowship sessions as part of the the MCN Action Toolkit:

• cultivating core values (empathy, humility, inclusion).
• honing hard skills (how to write a budget, create SMART goals).
• honing soft skills (team management, pitching your Project).
• peer to peer feedback - sharing best practices to help each other overcome obstacles to your Project and exploring further opportunities for collaboration.
