Sign-up as a potential mentor or mentee using this Microsoft form. The scheme commitment is low and in your control at all times - we only ask that you meet up at least once in the first instance!

For all those with an interest in sustainability, ecology and climate. The world needs to increase its action, community and knowledge on sustainability, ecological and climate related topics. We therefore invite the international Wolfson community to meet each other to share knowledge, advice and expertise.
Grown from our Theory of Change (Community Resilience branch) from Wolfson’s Sustainability & Conservation Hub, we provide avenues for sustainability-focused Wolfson alumni, Fellows and friends to mentor the Wolfson student body and staff, creating knowledge transfer and cross-talk across our international community. Being a Mentor is as involved or low maintenance as desired, from a casual chat, to occasional advising on work efforts, to actively supporting students in official projects. The level of commitment is very much up to you and the relationship you want to nurture.
