WHAT IS "MENTORING"?
Mentoring is an essential approach to provide students an inclusive environment to orient them towards learning positive habits in the long-term educational process, based on the principle that quality education should fit the learner rather than requiring them to fit into an existing system.
This project is a follow up of previously implemented initiatives under Erasmus+ and other European funding initiatives, intends to continue the successful implementation of training opportunities that foster Roma inclusion and integration both in education and employment market. In this line, mentoring represents a comprehensive support package for youngsters since it can provide them with a positive role model, support them with their learning, offer opportunities to discuss and find solutions to challenges they may be facing.
