ORIENT8 Team Participated in the European Mentoring Summit 2022

Beyond the Horizon ISSG and KU Leuven HIVA organized a workshop about matching mentors and recent immigrants in social mentoring programmes for newcomers, where we had the opportunity to give information about ORIENT8 as well as some of its major deliverables such as Mentoring Programme, Matching Criteria and Smart Matching Tool.

During the summit, Beyond the Horizon ISSG and Clarusway DE opened a stand and had the opportunity to introduce the project to the participants.


The summit brought together 250+ people from Europe and beyond: mentoring experts, professionals, researchers, government & civic leaders, mentors, mentees, corporate partners, students, and mentoring lovers on how to link formal & informal mentoring in a holistic approach.
