Thank you for your interest in being a mentor in the WiMIR mentoring program!
The Women in Music Information Retrieval (WiMIR) group of the International Society for Music Information Retrieval (
www.ismir.net) organizes this program to connect women, trans, non-binary, and other minorities, underrepresented regions and backgrounds, students, postdocs, early-stage researchers and faculty, to more senior women and allies in MIR who are dedicated to promoting the role of, and increasing opportunities for, underrepresented community members. As a woman or ally of the WiMIR community, you are likely aware of the challenges faced by other genders and minorities in predominantly male fields. This program gives you the opportunity to share your insights while helping a member of your community maximize their opportunities for success.
