Empowering women as one: MentHer 2023/24
In the world of professional growth, there's a simple yet profound truth: "Behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful women, who have her back." This truth comes alive in the vibrant community of Rotaract Mora, where MentHer 2023/24 shines brightly as one of the standout projects.
MentHer, a leading force in professional development avenue, returns in the RI year 2023/24, refreshed and reinvigorated. True to its name, MentHer is more than a mentoring program—it's a dynamic initiative focused on nurturing young and innovative female undergraduates at the University of Moratuwa.
At its core, MentHer embodies the idea of women supporting women. Through mentoring sessions, enthusiastic undergraduates are paired with experienced female leaders who guide, encourage, and inspire them. It's a community where everyone is invested in each other's success.
MentHer has already begun its journey, hosting mentoring sessions for groups of eager undergraduates. Through a careful selection process, the most passionate students were chosen as mentees and matched with mentors aligned with their fields of study. These sessions, held separately for each group, provide a supportive environment where students receive guidance from industry-leading women.
As the project moves forward, it advances towards its goal of empowerment. Industrial visits are planned, giving participants the chance to apply their knowledge in real-world settings and network with industry professionals.
The impact of MentHer is clear to see. With each session completed, we witness the ripple effect of empowerment spreading across the university. And we're not stopping there—industrial visits are in the pipeline, offering participants practical experience and the chance to connect with industry leaders.
In conclusion, MentHer 2023/24 is more than just a project; it's a movement. It's about women coming together to lift each other and break down barriers. As we celebrate our achievements, we look forward to a future where every woman has the opportunity to thrive and succeed.
