Three Faiths Forum’s mentoring programmes offer undergraduate students of Muslim, Christian and Jewish backgrounds the opportunity to work with leading professionals and gain invaluable experience in the fields they’re hoping to pursue after their graduation. Trios of students, one from each faith, are mentored by professionals (such as MPs, Peers, film-makers and senior business executives). Together, they create projects working towards positive social change while establishing new personal and professional relationships.

Undergraduate ParliaMentors®

Undergraduate ParliaMentors® is our pioneering initiative to nurture the next generation of politicians and community leaders, while bringing about social change today. The programme, founded together with the Pears Foundation and City Bridge Trust, gives trios of politics students the opportunity to be mentored by parliamentarians. Together they create and deliver ‘empowerment projects’ aimed at increasing political participation and social responsibility. Groups also benefit from the expertise of leading NGOs and think tanks that support their projects.

DocuMentors

On the DocuMentors programme trios of undergraduates with a passion for film are mentored for a year by leading film-makers. They are given access to equipment and professional editors to support them in producing short films over the year. Participants learn about all the elements of film-making, from the legal issues to the technical skills. 

Future mentoring programmes

We are preparing the launch of Business ManageMentors – a national programme connecting business students to top business executives, supporting mixed faith trios in developing their own social enterprises.
