About the Event
Join us as we continue the YouthLead Mentorship Initiative Event Series with our event on September 29th from 9:00 - 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.
In this age of digital innovation and artificial intelligence, mentorship has transformed from its conventional limitations. To explore the dynamics of mentorship in a digital age, we are co-hosting this webinar with our Youth Advisory Group to examine how technology has changed the mentorship landscape with the addition of virtual mentorship options and online resources and platforms. We will also discuss some of the challenges of virtual mentorship and strategies for maintaining meaningful connections in a digital world.
About the YouthLead Mentorship Initiative
Under the YouthLead Mentorship Initiative, young changemakers in the YouthLead Network can learn more about mentorship, explore resources and information for how to find and cultivate healthy mentor relationships, be a peer mentor to others, or identify mentorship programs and networks to help support their personal and career pathways and build their knowledge and skills in mentorship and related topics through live learning events, and more. Visit the YouthLead Mentorship Initiative Page to learn more.
Launched in 2018 under the USAID-funded project YouthPower Learning and continued under YP2LE, YouthLead.org is designed for young changemakers making a positive impact in their community through service, activism, advocacy, education, and entrepreneurship. Our network members are focused on finding solutions by connecting people, ideas, and resources to tackle critical issues affecting young people at home and around the world.
ABOUT YOUTHPOWER2: LEARNING AND EVALUATION (YP2LE)
YP2LE activities will bring USAID’s Youth in Development Policy to life by enabling investments in PYD research and evaluation within and across multiple sectors, including health, education, agriculture/food security, economic opportunity, peace and security, democracy, and human rights and governance. YP2LE will build and disseminate PYD evidence across multiple sectors; offer leadership in promoting PYD best practices; and provide rapid response, technical assistance to USAID staff to design, implement, and evaluate youth activities. The goal of these activities is to give practitioners the information, tools, and resources they need to develop high-quality, impactful, and sustainable youth programs, allowing empowered youth, working with supportive adults, to create the kind of sustainable change in individuals and systems.
