Social Mentoring Program
Social Mentoring is a program for experienced students to accompany new volunteers, which helps those who are not familiar with volunteering to immerse themselves in this field, choose interesting areas of help and start volunteering systematically, for the benefit of themselves and others.
Social mentors are student ambassadors of good deeds, experts in the field of social projects at HSE and help other to learn more about it. Mentee are HSE students who want to try volunteering but don't know where to start.
Under the strict guidance of social mentors, mentees undergo training, where they understand the basics of volunteering, as well as prepare for their first volunteering.
