The Ageless Creative Enterprise Mentoring Project
|
|
|
|
Brisbane City Council is trialling a new initiative called the Ageless Creative Enterprise Mentoring Project. It is a senior and youth mentoring project that has been derived from Council’s Seniors' Strategy 2012-2017, Creative Brisbane Creative Economy 2013-22, and the Youth Strategy 2014-2019.
The project seeks to link seniors and young people to mentor each other, peer-to-peer. The aim is to match mentors’ superior skills in their creative disciplines with requests for specific training, intergenerationally with another practitioner who can provide the training and assistance needed.
