Advisory Mentorship Programme | Public Institutions

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

The Advisory Mentorship Programme is an online initiative that matches students aged 16-25 with industry mentors from their field of interest one-to-one on a three-month basis from May to July. Through this, it is hoped that students can learn how to make informed career choices, and be provided with sufficient support and advice during these uncertain times.
