Luncheons with Mentors Activity during the Congress
During the Congress, we hope to arrange for a series of “Luncheons with Mentors” as an extension of the pre-Congress Student Workshop. The goal of these Luncheons is to help make connections between students and more experienced Congress participants who share interests and/or work in the same regions.
Mentoring helps develop the talents and abilities of students by drawing on the skills and experiences of successful individuals (mentors) who are committed to fostering of a new generation of leaders within the discipline of Ethnobiology. Taking the time to meet with students during the Congress will create opportunities to share insights and experiences with this new generation of researchers and to share strategies for translating values into actions.
Matching students and mentors is an important part of making this activity a success. If you are interested in participating in the Luncheons with Mentors activity, please let us know your areas of research and the region(s) in which you work. As the Congress approaches we will circulate this list among ISE student Members and will also provide you with a similar list of Students interested in being mentored. Prior to the Congress, we will put the students and mentors in touch with each other.
Whether your involvement is at the Congress only, or is the beginning of a productive relationship that lasts beyond the Congress, this is sure to be an enlightening and worthwhile experience for everyone involved.
Contact the ISE Coordinator (isecoordinator@gmail.com) for more information and to sign up, or indicate your interest on the Congress registration form and we will get in touch with you.
Please note that this is a student-initiated activity that is not funded by the ISE (i.e., meals are user-pay) but the ISE is pleased to help with coordination to make the opportunity possible.
