JHEP advances SDG 5 (Gender Equality), Indicator 5.6.6

Pauh, Perlis — The Student Affairs Department (JHEP), Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) is expanding meaningful opportunities for women students through a structured ecosystem of mentoring and leadership development. Centred on Program Pemimpin Mahasiswa and Kem Kepimpinan Mahasiswa UniMAP, these mentoring pathways combine staff–student coaching, peer-support circles, and practical leadership clinics that help women build confidence, competencies, and campus impact.

What the Mentoring Looks Like

• Staff–Student Coaching: Guided mentoring with academic and professional advisors focused on goal-setting, communication, and decision-making.
• Peer Mentoring Circles: Small-group, near-peer spaces that provide encouragement, accountability, and problem-solving for academic and co-curricular challenges.
• Leadership Clinics & Camps: Hands-on practice in public speaking, debate, project management, and stakeholder engagement—translating leadership theory into action.
• Pathways into Roles & Service: Participants are supported to step into student leadership roles, competitions, and community service initiatives across faculties.

How This Supports SDG 5 (Gender Equality), Indicator 5.6.6

How we support it: By operating structured, accessible mentoring programmes—blending advisor guidance, peer mentoring, and skills clinics—JHEP creates sustained, practical pathways for women to participate, persist, and progress into leadership and service.
