Mentor on the Move · Online Training Course
Mentor on the Move (MOTM) is an Erasmus+ Sport–funded European project that builds capacity across clubs, NGOs and community organisations to deliver sport-based mentoring for women with migrant backgrounds. The project recognises barriers such as social isolation, language and cultural differences, and limited access to sport — and uses movement, shared activity and trusted relationships as a bridge to belonging, confidence and community participation. This course turns the MOTM approach into practical modules you can adapt to your local context.
Who is this course for?
- Programme coordinators who are creating or improving inclusive, sport-based mentoring programmes.
- Mentors seeking structured, culturally sensitive practice for working with women with migrant backgrounds.
- Club/NGO partners building accessible participation pathways and community bridges.

- Integrate culturally aware mentoring methods, considering diversity, gender, language and wellbeing.
- Implement light-touch monitoring & evaluation that captures progress, supports learning and values participants’ voices.
- Use practical tools, templates and reflection strategies to strengthen relationships, build community links and show impact.
