WHY MENTORING?

Mentoring has revealed to be one of the most effective tools to help women grow within closed business environments. Women do not need « more » training, on average they are already well trained, and often better than men, but in industries where networking and personal links are very strong, women need to learn from more experienced professional how to join the club and neutralise gender bias that frequently occur.

WHO IS INVOLVED IN THE PROGRAMME?

EWA Network disposes of a pool of experienced women producers who have a successful track record and a consolidated practice in European/international co-production and business development at large.
