An advisory board supports our work in via:mento and via:mento_ocean. The eight members of the board give strategic advice and feedback and allow for external reflection. They are involved in the selection of our mentees, in case of via:mento_ocean Prof. Dr. Katja Matthes (GEOMAR) is a member of our selection committee.

The members of the advisory board are also actively involved in our running programme cycles: They take part in our networking events, for example.

The board meets twice a year.
