PiP Mentorship Program

The PiP Mentorship Program pairs students and young professionals in Palestine (PiP Mentees) to experienced professionals and academics around the world (PiP Mentors). We pair mentors and mentees based on their field of expertise and interest, respectively. Through a series of virtual meetups, PiP Mentors will advise and support PiP Mentees in their field related questions. The program aims at advancing the future of Palestine and its economic and social recovery through external professional expertise and support.

How does it work?

The program will be launching in September 2021, and will run for 4 months, 3 times a year: The Fall cycle begins September through December; the Winter cycle begins January through April; and the Summer cycle begins May through August. We are accepting applications for the Fall 2021 cycle until August 23, 2021.
