Mentorship
Please note the WESNO mentorship program is permanently closed
but stay tuned for events and guidance!
Here at WESNO, we are continually evolving to provide the best support for women sustainability professionals in Ottawa. From 2020 to 2023, we implemented a formal mentorship program, pairing mentors and mentees based on shared interests and specific needs. While some of these matches thrived, many matches proved short-term, and we recognized areas for growth and adaptation.
Understanding the critical importance of mentorship, we are transitioning to a more dynamic and sustainable model supported by information sessions and guidance documents. This new approach empowers mentees to build and nurture multiple mentorship relationships, ensuring they have access to diverse guidance and support. Simultaneously, we aim to equip mentors to give back effectively, sharing their expertise and offering meaningful insights to help early-career professionals navigate their journey toward success.
