We are delighted to launch the new website and digital home for Network of Sisters in Academia (NeSA).
NeSA is the first international professional network for Muslim women academics. Since our founding in 2017, we have been active in building a scholarly community to serve as a supportive network of sisterhood in a profession where Muslim women are underrepresented and frequently experience professional isolation. NeSA has sought to build a connected space to enable academic sisters to thrive and advance as professionals and individuals.
To date, NeSA has been operating over various social media outlets, including Twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp and Signal. With a growing global community, it became clear that the network needed a formal digital home. In Ramadan 2021 we therefore undertook a campaign to raise the funds necessary to create this digital home. With the generosity of the incredible individuals that believed in our project and supported our cause, the funds needed were raised. This new website is the outcome. We are very grateful to every sponsor who supported our campaign to make this dream a reality, alhamdulillah. May they be rewarded abundantly.
This new website will be the space from which to learn about NeSA activities and stay in touch with us. And, most importantly, it will serve as a means for academic sisters seeking community to become a part of our welcoming sisterhood.
We look forward to connecting with you.
