In August 2020, Europlanet launched the Mentorship platform with the aim to support early career researchers. Two years after launch we are using a survey to gather feedback from mentors and mentees, and we are also following up with participants informally through chats and e-mails. The feedback so far has been positive and points to the effectiveness and the need of the programme to support the paths of early career researchers. We will present the Europlanet mentorship programme and the case study of the Romanian/Brazil collaboration that resulted from the mentor's work with two mentees. Europlanet 2024 RI has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 871149.
