Connect, create & transform
NETSHEILA DELIVERS PROJECTS THAT EXPAND WHAT IS POSSIBLE. OUR FOCUS LIES WITH NETWORKS, GENDER EQUALITY AND DIVERSITY.
Networks are everywhere. At work, people seek each other out, look for and give each other support. Networks can’t be managed, but they can be utilized. The Netsheila colleagues are ready to work with you to build and use work-related networks more creatively.
Netsheila works with city councils, schools, companies, organizations, and individuals to use networks as a resource - to help people find jobs, to support people in doing their job more efficiently, to innovate.
Netsheila works with government and international agencies to research and explore issues of gender equality. We work with companies to make diversity in the workplace a reality.
Our fundamental drive is to contribute to building healthy communities.
ALL HUMAN BEINGS ARE BORN FREE AND EQUAL IN DIGNITY AND RIGHTS
