Mosta9bali Program Mentors Retour vers les opportunités

Mosta9bali empowers Tunisian youth age 18-23, from Gabes Region, to be active citizens and change-makers in their communities. This year, the program will focus on elements of inclusion of the youth, communities, society, and beyond. Up to 30 young change-makers started the program in October 2017 to:
● Connect with other young change-makers from Gabes
● Gain and exchange knowledge about topics such as inclusion, shaping the community, project management, and active citizenship
● Dream, plan, and implement innovative solutions to local community challenges and realize their first own initiative
● Get support from a network of peers, mentors, trainers, and partners
● Strengthen the quality and impact of work done at the local level
● Co-create an Tunisian network of young, passionate change-makers
Now we are seeking for 06 voluntary mentors who are committed to encouraging and assisting a team of up to 04 participants (02-04 participants) to develop their initiatives. It is a commitment that requires experience, interpersonal skills, and a willingness to spend the time to ensure a successful relationship.
Mosta9bali mentors must make a commitment to attend the mentoring seminar (12-14 December) and insure the mentoring of two teams (equal two initiatives) on a voluntary basis. Please note that the implementation period of the initiatives is about three months (December-February).
