Mentors are called to provide expert and tailored guidance to applicants interested in submitting proposals responding to the dedicated Living Lab and Lighthouses topics under the Mission Soil call for proposals. They play a key role in supporting applicants by offering insights, answering questions, and guiding them through the application process. Mentors specifically assist national applicants or consortia that include applicants from their country. They provide support in the national language and operate under a strict non-disclosure and confidentiality approach.
