At the heart of our sustainability work is developing solutions that contribute to a sustainable society. We are a team driven by building things that make sense, that solve important problems.
WebSearch was set up to encourage young talent to stay in their home country (Nepal) to counteract brain drain.
We also run a scholarship programme where we have so far supported 16 young people with exceptional talent who could not afford to study to graduate from university. After their studies, several of them have been employed at WebSearch. We are particularly proud of one of our scholarship students - Dipesh who, after working at WebSearch for a couple of years, left to run his own web agency with 30 employees.
Nepal was hit by a massive earthquake in 2015 that destroyed 800,000 homes and thousands of schools. Since the earthquake, WebSearch has supported the reconstruction of two schools and is one of the main sponsors of the social enterprise Build up Nepal, which has built more than 100 schools and 8,000 homes for poor families in Nepal.
Does that sound interesting?
