Benefits for Individuals and Organizations

Access to a Global Internet Platform for Sharing Expertise and Referrals

To provide a readily available international networking platform, the STN will make use of the LinkedIn platform and network of over 18,000,000 professionals around the world. LinkedIn is contributing access to the LinkedIn network and platform as well as special group features for Social Transformation Network members.

Each founding organization will also create its own identity within the global network. This will enable each separate organization and their networks to have their own integrity and applications, while also making it easier for members of the global network to recognize and authenticate each other through the organizational networks they’re affiliated with.

When you join the STN, you will be able to:

Create a rich profile of experience, skills and interests,
