Welcome to the FabConnect MentHer Community
This is your community space as a FabConnectHer mentor.
It is designed to give you a place where you can connect with peers, share experience, learn from others and build confidence in your mentoring practice.
Here you can meet other mentors, exchange ideas, strengthen your mentoring skills and feel supported as you inspire the next generation of female innovators in STEAM. The platform also gives you access to exclusive tools and resources that help you plan activities, explore new approaches and broaden your impact.
As our MentHer community already brings together mentors and role models from Fab Labs, VET and CVET providers, and local learning centres across Europe, it supports collaboration, shared learning, and the use of Fab Lab strengths to lift girls and women in STEAM through creativity, problem-solving, digital making, and hands-on experimentation. Every mentor contributes to the strength of this network and the positive influence it creates.
