This publication presents diverse mentoring programs aimed at promoting gender equality in academia across Europe. Preparing the international conference „Mentoring – Potentials for the Advancement of Female Careers in European Academia and Research, and for Gender Equality Plans,“ which took place in September 2024 at Constanta Maritime University in Romania, the editors engaged with practitioners who are actively involved in mentoring programs and gender equality initiatives in academia. The outcomes of these efforts have been compiled in this publication to provide the reader with an overview of various mentoring programs. In addition, the various abstracts submitted to the conference program highlight the topics that mentoring managers are currently addressing. Eument-net is proud to support and bring to the forefront mentoring initiatives that play a crucial role in empowering women scientists and promoting gender equality in academia and research across Europe.

They show how academic mentoring programmes conceive a mentor’s role and how the understanding of this role can be increased and developed. Contributions also discuss experiences with different kinds of training for mentors.

The guideline manual is a major tool for the transfer of knowledge and experience using mentoring as a measure to promote women in academia and research. It is based upon a comparison between four existing mentoring programmes at universities in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland.

The manual also provides a basis for transferring expert knowledge on mentoring to countries where there is as yet no mentoring scheme, as demonstrated in the example of Bulgaria.

It provides examples of best practice in how to design, implement, and prepare the ground for mentoring programmes under specific conditions at local, regional, and national levels.
