Green Mentorship
A virtual mentorship programme for young people building careers in sustainability.
Green Mentorship combines structured coursework with one-on-one sessions led by mentors who have hands-on experience in sustainability. Participants learn at their own pace and leave with strategies they can apply at work or in their communities.
The programme runs in cohorts and is open to all skill levels, from complete beginners to people with some background in the field. What matters most is a commitment to environmental sustainability and to learning.
