The UN-NYG Mentoring Programme provides an unparalleled opportunity for young nuclear professionals to interact with the senior professionals at IAEA outside their own division and/or broadening their vision for future nuclear career pathways. The objectives are:
- Strengthen staff resources through mutual learning experiences for mentors and mentees, to nurture high performance leaders with the capacity to “give back” at the workplace
- Develop self-sustaining, moderately informal professional relationships between mentors and mentees that narrow the gap between different departments and age groups at the IAEA

Structure of the Programme
The UN-NYG Mentoring Programme (Season 4) is designed to run for four months’ time (February – May 2021) and includes several events either in mentor-mentees pairs (1-on-1 meeting) or in group setups (topical discussion). Each selected mentee will be assigned to a dedicated mentor from another division. Meanwhile, the Mentoring Coordinating Team will provide options of several professional topics during the kick-off event. The mentor-mentee pairs can decide, during their 1-on-1 meetings, which topical discussion(s) to attend. The Mentoring Coordinating Team will organize paralleled sessions in small groups focusing on the topics of interest. A social event and/or a concluding event is planned toward the end of the mentorship season. A preliminary programme timeline is given below. Please keep in mind that the event form and time may subject to change due to COVID uncertainties.
