As a part of the ERASMUS+ project Music4Change, an innovative mentoring programme – The Bridge Mentorship Programme, will be implemented from January 2024 to December 2024 by The University of Bergen (Norway) – the lead of the M4C project, and seven other partners – Creative Mentorship (Serbia), The University of Edinburgh (United Kingdom), University of Groningen (Netherlands), the private Gustav Mahler University of Music (Austria), Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (Greece), Norwegian University of Science and Technology (Norway) and the European Music Council of Bonn (Germany).
The concept and structure of this tailor-made mentorship programme is based on the Creative Mentorship methodology and will be delivered by the Creative Mentorship team in cooperation with other M4C project partners.
The Bridge Mentorship Programme is intended for current PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, or recently finished PhD students in the music field, with the aim to provide support through participants’ transition from the academic to the labor market environment.
It will be piloted online in order to provide tailored support for diverse learner profiles and post-study career paths.
