15+ years of open mentorship experience, being turned into a handbook for the future. We’re consolidating our collective experience with open mentorships into the Open Mentorship Handbook, a reference guide for mentees, mentors, organisers, researchers, and communities.

Our goal? Help new mentorship initiatives emerge, existing programs evolve, and communities learn from what has already been tried and observed. The first version is being developed with financial support from the @SloanFoundation. We’re excited to share more soon.

This is more than a book. It’s a foundation of knowledge that can be shared, adapted, adopted, and built upon across the open-source ecosystem. #OpenSource #OpenMentorship #Outreachy #FOSS
