Existing projects and initiatives

Commiting to a defined length of time to guarantee a quality relationship

Creating a trusting relationship takes time. This is why young migrants and their mentors build long-term relationships by spending a few hours together each month. At the end of 9 months, the two of them will decide if they wish to remain in contact with one another, whether formally or informally.
