The Southern African Energy Efficiency Confederation (SAEEC) has launched the SAYES mentorship programme designed to bridge the gap between seasoned professionals and emerging leaders in both the Energy and Water sectors. Mentors and mentees are encouraged to sign up now.
“Whether you’re looking for guidance or aiming to give back by becoming a mentor, this program is your opportunity to grow and make a lasting impact,” said SAEEC.
The Southern African Youth in Energy Sector (SAYES) programme was established to become the local representative networking group for the youth to drive change in previously disadvantaged communities. The objective of the SAYES portfolio is to empower young individuals by providing them with opportunities for skill development, job creation, and sustainable livelihoods within the clean energy industry. This includes fostering vocational training, mentorship programs, and creating an enabling environment for youth-led initiatives.
“By actively involving youth, the portfolio aims to contribute to sustainable development and a greener future.”
Mentors:
Share your experience and expertise in the Energy and Water industries to help the next generation thrive. By volunteering just two hours in a month, you can provide invaluable guidance to future leaders in two of the most critical sectors.
Mentees:
Take your career in energy or water management to new heights with insights from industry experts. Navigate your career path, enhance your skill set, and make meaningful contributions to both sectors with valuable advice and mentorship. Gain the knowledge and skills to succeed and make a difference in both industries!
