About this event
Join us as we continue the YouthLead Mentorship Initiative Event Series with our fourth event. YouthLead is excited to have the Latin American Leadership Academy (LALA) join us for this panel discussion on Listening in Mentorship Relationships.
During this session, attendees will listen to a dynamic panel discussion among LALA mentor-mentee pairs who have personal or professional experiences in mentorship and have identified potential areas to strengthen mentorship knowledge and practices. They will share listening techniques that they leverage to build a strong mentoring relationship. The session will also include an audience Q and A session.
During this webinar attendees will:
- Hear from young leaders who have personal or professional experiences in mentorship,
- Gain key insights into pathways to healthy listening in mentorship, and
- Be encouraged to reflect on their mentorship relationships.
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.

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.
