International Mentoring Day

International Mentoring Day happens every year on January 17th; honouring the legacy of Muhammad Ali on his birthday. Known not only for his boxing greatness but also for his humanitarianism, Ali’s life embodies the values of mentorship-empowerment, inclusion, and lifting others up. 

It’s no secret that mentors can transform lives. You see, potential is universal, but opportunities aren’t shared equally. The mentorship movement teaches us to advocate ourselves and others; dismantling stereotypes and lifting each other up. Whether it’s a formal program or a friendly chat, mentorships can be a beacon for those on the fringes – amplifying voices and forging connections for a more just and inclusive world.
