The 2025–2026 year has already been full of energy and meaningful moments for Bridges by Mentors at Université Savoie Mont Blanc. From mentoring with local associations, libraries and school groups to connecting with the wider community during an intercultural fair in Chambéry, participants have been actively building connections.
It has also been a time for growth for our international student mentors, as they took part in the Transnational Student Meeting in Bulgaria, learned more about the local territory and found creative ways to engage with local residents.
These experiences in the final year of the project highlight the diversity and impact of the Bridges by Mentors project on both international students and the local community in which they are thriving.
