The world is becoming more complex – and with it the challenges facing non-profit organizations and foundations. At the same time, new topics, debates and fields of action are constantly emerging. Stay up to date with 16 StiftungSchweiz trend networks.
The networks help to maintain an overview and identify relevant developments at an early stage. They pool in-depth knowledge, analyze current content with the help of artificial intelligence and create space for exchange with committed players from the field. This supports orientation and collaboration – focused, impact-oriented and sorted by topic.
Think thematically, act networked
The trend networks currently cover 16 key topics – from environment & climate, education and health to digitalization, governance and artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to stay informed can join the networks that are relevant to them and receive the latest articles, studies, media content and impulses on an ongoing basis – presented in a structured and comprehensible way. The networks are freely accessible from Starter level.
A special feature is the AI-supported media monitoring from level Pro: with the help of semantic analysis, countless pieces of content from the media, science and civil society are automatically recorded, filtered and thematically assigned on a daily basis. This not only provides users with a collection of information, but also precise insights into relevant developments – without the need for lengthy searches. Editorial curation by experts also ensures that quality, relevance and classification are guaranteed.
Impulses and exchange from practice
The trend networks are more than just sources of information – they thrive on exchange. Each network is managed by dedicated moderators who classify developments, initiate debates and contribute relevant practical knowledge. Users have the opportunity to actively participate, contribute their own perspectives in comments and thus network with like-minded people. This creates new connections – between organizations, experts and people interested in the topic. The exchange not only promotes the transfer of knowledge, but also opens up concrete opportunities for cooperation and joint impact.
