Building leaders for the next decade of age-friendly cities and communities.
Do you want to be more skilled at transforming your city or community to be a better place for people of all ages?
The Age-friendly Environments Mentorship Programme, MENTOR-AFE, provides opportunities for:
- emerging and established leaders of age-friendly communities to further develop their skills with the support of a mentor; and
- existing experts to share their knowledge and experience and to develop mentees’ skills to lead, influence and implement age-friendly environments, and in doing so, reinforcing their own leadership and expertise.
Over a 12 month period, a mentor will provide guidance and support to enable a mentee to develop the specific skills they need to advance their work on age-friendly environments. Exactly what’s on offer will be unique to the mentee’s development needs, the mentor’s skills, and the time and energy committed to the relationship. Mentors and mentees will receive certificates at the end of the year, recognising their contributions and achievement.
MENTOR-AFE is a programme of the World Health Organization (WHO) delivered with support from the International Federation on Ageing (IFA).
