WHEN AND WHERE?

On a case-by-case basis, as agreed between a client (foreigner), a volunteer (mentor) and a CIC coordinator; depends on the type of mentoring as well.

Generally, these are one or two-hour long weekly meetings. The project participants meet on the CIC premises, in public spaces (libraries, parks, cafes), at client’s place, or online (Zoom, Skype, etc.)
