Abstract
Young individuals benefit from consistent relationships with experienced adults who
care for them. Researches are showing that quality-mentoring programs have positive
outcomes for young people in their social, emotional and academic development.
While there is a broad consensus on the overall benefits of positive and supportive
mentoring relationships, we known less about the effects of ethnicity and diversity in
mentoring relationships with young people.
In a multicultural society, such as the Republic of Northern Macedonia, it can be noted
that a good part of the formal mentoring connections often cross the ethnic and cultural
communities.
The paper examines the challenges and opportunities of mentoring relationships
established between a mentor and a mentee from different ethnic backgrounds and
emphasizes the importance of establishing a structure and opportunities that support
successful outcomes.
