Mentoring Platform: Connect and Grow with Expert Guidance
Build connections with certified landowners and farmers who have successfully implemented sustainable practices and earned the Wildlife Estate Label. This platform is designed to support your journey toward certification by facilitating knowledge exchange and personalized guidance.
What is the
mentoring platform?
The WESEM Mentoring Platform is a European knowledge-sharing space where students, professionals, landowners, and farmers committed to ethical and sustainable land management can connect and exchange real-world experiences.
This is not a training course, which you can find on the other WESEM platform, but a peer-to-peer mentoring network that complements formal online training by focusing on practical dialogue, applied learning, and community building.
Here, users interact directly to ask questions, share solutions, and support each other in implementing biodiversity-friendly practices, particularly those aligned with the Wildlife Estates Label (WEL).
