Co-production Impact Mentors
Discover the difference the support of a mentor can make!
Step into the realm of collaborative discovery with the Co-production mentoring scheme at the University of Leeds. Designed to foster a culture of mutual learning and support, this initiative pairs researchers with experienced mentors to navigate the intricacies of co-production.
Through this enriching process, mentees gain invaluable insights and guidance while mentors have the opportunity to share their knowledge and skills. Together, they forge interdisciplinary connections, driving forward a transformative culture of collaboration and leadership.
For those eager to embark on this journey, a comprehensive guidance document is available for download here. Whether you're keen to become a mentee, a mentor, or support the Co-production Network, reach out to LSSI at lssi@leeds.ac.uk.
