D1 Report from the Mentorship Programme 2021-2022

The CESSDA Mentorship Programme offers one-to-one support where CESSDA partners and new member SPs requesting support are matched with experts active in the program. The purpose is to help the mentees define and realise their short-term goals. These can be strategic, policy-related, practical, or technical. The Mentorship Programme is a way to ensure that the mentee sets and works towards realistic goals with active support and encouragement from the mentor. During 2021–2022, six mentorships were carried out and this report describes the activities within the various mentorships.
