Protecting nature and strengthening team spirit
Whether as a company or with a group of learners, contribute to nature!
Our corporate volunteering assignments are perfect for companies that want to strengthen team spirit and demonstrate sustainability commitment, as well as for learners who want to experience responsibility and ecological connections in a practical environment.

Naturnetz is a reliable partner for us when it comes to corporate volunteering in the environmental sector. Activities on our own company premises are particularly meaningful, as they create a sense of connection, satisfaction and empowerment.

The working groups grow into a team in just one day. The apprentices are well looked after, and even in bad weather there is shelter and a warm fire at lunchtime. I find our work “right on our doorstep” very valuable.

AXA helps the bell frog with bricks and piles of branches
26 employees of AXA Switzerland rolled up their sleeves and got to work: on a traditional orchard meadow at Taggenberg, they collected freshly mown hay by hand to promote biodiversity. At Maienried, they built brick structures as wintering sites for the rare bell frog, expanded wood piles as shelters, and cleared vegetation from ponds.
Together for a greener future: The Sika campaign “Tüffenwies Alive”
Four days, 40 employees, 300 plants: The Sika team ecologically enhanced the site along the Limmat River! With a 100-meter-long hedge and a species-rich gravel area, they created new habitats for animals. Tired but proud – a tremendous effort!
A barrier is brought to life
Despite stormy weather, 10 motivated Econis AG employees got to work at Kloster Fahr: planting 300 plants for a biodiversity-promoting hedge! 🌱💪 After completing the work and gaining fascinating insights into ecological relationships, the day concluded with a cozy get-together in the fondue parlor.
Working together for more resilient forests with SAP
Seven SAP employees planted 110 deciduous trees to strengthen the wind resistance of a forest. With spades and a lot of effort, they dug holes, planted seedlings, and installed grazing barriers. Accompanied by insights into the impact of bark beetles, the project contributed to creating a more resilient mixed forest and greater ecosystem diversity.
Braving the cold for more biodiversity
The sleet is taking its toll on the blackberries. Instead, the forest is getting new residents in the form of native shrubs and trees. With gritted teeth and wet feet, Microsoft employees are braving the weather and creating a natural oasis right next to the runway at Zurich Airport.
More light for biodiversity
Today, it's not the goats🐐 and cattle🐃 that protect our forests from the darkness, but the employees of Schröder Investments. Strengthened after a meal by the cozy fire, the picks are swung once again. Togetherness and joy enable a great result, bringing satisfaction to both people and nature.
