About

Peer mentorship is a structured or informal developmental relationship established between individuals of similar status, experience, or age, typically within an educational or professional setting. As an academic concept and methodological approach, it investigates the dynamics, processes, and outcomes of these relationships, characterized by shared context and mutual understanding, for facilitating knowledge transfer, skill development, psychosocial support, and identity formation. Its significance lies in its capacity to promote academic achievement, professional growth, social integration, and retention within specific communities or institutions.
