Motto: “A mentor doesn’t have all the answers — but they have the courage to listen, walk alongside, and learn together.”

Module Overview

This module explores what mentoring looks like in intercultural and sporting contexts — and how to do it sustainably. You will clarify your role and responsibilities, build strong mentor–mentee relationships, set healthy boundaries, support your own well-being, and use practical tools to make mentoring more focused and effective.

  • Develop trust-based, culturally sensitive mentor–mentee relationships.
