Description of the intervention

"Toor-Toor is an innovative mentoring platform that aims to connect experienced mentors with early career or unemployed mentees, as well as other target groups seeking to develop their professional and personal skills.
The platform aims to provide valuable support and learning opportunities for individuals seeking to progress in their careers and achieve their personal goals.
Through our mentoring platform, we create a virtual space where mentors and mentees can make meaningful connections and benefit from a mutual exchange of knowledge, experience and advice. Our approach is based on the idea that every individual has the potential to succeed, and that mentoring can play a vital role in their development.
By offering easy access to qualified mentors, our platform enables mentees to receive personalized guidance on their career path. Mentors, in turn, have the opportunity to share their knowledge and experience, while contributing to the growth and development of emerging talent.
Our project focuses on inclusion and equal opportunities.
In short, our project aims to facilitate exchanges, the sharing of experiences and the monitoring of career paths, in order to help mentees achieve their professional and personal goals, while benefiting from the expertise and support of their mentors.

We have a system for processing information and try to attribute data to named sources, but we do not audit, cross-check, or verify all information provided to us. It takes time and resources to share data, which may not have been included in a project’s budget. Many of the projects are ongoing and timely updates may not be available.
