PMNCH Adolescent and Youth Constituency (AYC) |
Mentorship Programme (MP) Survey
Introduction
The AYC MP was agreed by the constituency and PMNCH Board in 2016 as an opportunity for AYC members to be matched with mentors from other constituencies and Board members to network and learn about key areas, skills and stakeholders/ constituencies in the EWEC ecosystem. This is an initiative within PMNCH’s capacity building efforts for the AY constituency to maximize the AY engagement and contributions to SRMNCAH and the SDGs at large.
Mentoring provides a high impact opportunity for AYC members to be exposed to a broad landscape of SRMNCAH organizations and agendas to add to diversity of thought and encourage collaboration across constituencies (an explicit ask from the 2016 AYC Survey).
The aim of this Survey is to gather the required information from both potential mentees and mentors in order to develop the MP’s content, modalities and ways of working. Subsequently, the MP will be finalized and phase one of implementation will start by matching mentors and mentees within PMNCH constituency members as a pilot project for one year. This will be followed by a roll out to all interested AY networks beyond the constituency. .
