Where: Online

Description

Join the AIA International Global Mentorship Program’s first group session!

The theme of the 2026 AIA International Mentorship Program is Design by Discovery. 

To design is to experiment. By questioning norms and continuously testing ideas, we unlock new forms, materials, and spatial experiences. This series highlights the power of experimentation—from re-use to radical rethinking—to expand the limits of what architecture and design can be. Participants are invited to share and discover processes that challenge, refine, and ultimately elevate our practice.

The mentorship program includes regular digital group events which are open to all, as well as digital one-to-one mentoring.

To participate in the 2026 program, please fill out the form and REGISTER HERE >>>.

You can register to participate as a mentor / mentee, or affiliate and receive regular email updates. To participate as a mentor / mentee, please complete the registration by June 1st.

This program is open to all to participate.
