Call for Mentors: Map the System Competition at Humber College

Map the System is a global competition that challenges us to think differently about social and environmental change. Rather than jumping straight into a solution or a quick fix, Map the System invites students from all academic disciplines to use systems thinking to understand complex social and environmental challenges. 

This is Humber’s fifth year participating in the competition and we are looking for staff and faculty to mentor student teams. 

What does mentoring involve? 

As a mentor, you will support a student team to conduct systems research on a social or environmental issue. Support may include (but is not limited to) systems thinking research and mapping, directing teams to resources on the selected social/environmental topic, research process, and review of submission materials.

When will this happen? 

Mentorship of student teams will take place from early March to late April 2024. The weekly time commitment will vary from group-to-group depending on their needs, but expect one to two hours per week. 

What does this mean for you? 

Your assistance and support of students' systems-change research is greatly appreciated. In return for your time, you will receive our heartfelt thanks and a gift card.

How can you apply? 

If you are interested in becoming a mentor, please fill in this short form.

The deadline to apply is Thursday, February 29, 2024.
