Use your resources
Mentees are paired with industry leaders who are allied with the mission of QWE and are encouraged to draw upon the wealth of their knowledge to formulate and enact their project. Mentors are encouraged to connect mentees with any relevant connections or resources that are needed to see the project to fruition.

The Queer Women of Esports Capstone Project is designed to showcase our mentor and mentee’s talents, create a more diverse and inclusive community, and stimulate professional and personal growth.

 

Find a spark
Starting from the day they are accepted into the program, mentees are encouraged to think about how they can use their skills and leverage their mentor’s expertise to improve the esports and gaming industry.  

Build upon your idea 
After settling on one or two barriers that resonate with the mentee, they are encouraged to begin thinking about solutions they can enact themselves.
