The Shanghai Mentor Walks
The Shanghai Mentor Walks was started in 2015, after the immense success of it's sister programme in Beijing. Each supporting organization coordinates a different month of the Mentor Walk. Mentors and mentees gather in the park for an informal early morning walk on the 3rd Friday of every month. We meet at 7:45 am at the gates of Jing'an Park and walk in smaller groups for approximately an hour. Each year, the Mentor Walks kick off in March and close in November with a large group mentor and mentee gathering at M on the Bund.
