The 12th Cohort of Candidate Fellows selected from the client institutions in the member countries
will undergo rigorous one-on-one mentoring and coaching by leading experts in their respective areas
of specialty. This will be an ongoing process that will start with the development of technical proposals,
the conduct of research, and the preparation of research papers leading to graduation. The larger part
of this process will be covered in the first 12 months of the 12th Cohort of MEFMI Fellows in the 2024
implementation year. The remaining 6 months will be covered in 2025.
OBJECTIVES
The mentoring component of the Fellows Development Programme is intended to transfer skills to
the Candidate Fellows in their respective areas of speciality by tapping into the knowledge, skills, and
experience of the mentors that will be assigned to each one of them.
TARGET GROUP
The mentoring programme targets the Candidate Fellows selected in 2023.
