1) Company at a glance
Lisha B.V. is a Dutch social business developing TOPlisha, a WhatsApp-first and Web based platform that helps TOP Centers, cooperatives and community groups build digital profiles, track projects, improve visibility, and access practical dashboards. In practice, TOP provides the methodology and training logic, while Lisha B.V. provides the digital tools, onboarding workflows, and institutional reporting layer. TOPlisha is currently active in Kenya, Burkina Faso, DRC and Israel.
2) What we do — TOPlisha (Doing)
TOPlisha creates Dignity-Digital profiles (individual and group) capturing skills, resources, aspirations, and challenges. Groups with the help of local coaches can then initiate practical projects with their own resources, grow their activities. A structured follow-up loop module —tasks, progress updates, obstacles, and reporting—allows action becomes visible and measurable over time. Data is collected from the field through WhatsApp (text, voice, photos) and through a Progressive Web App (PWA) that supports online/offline entry. TOPlisha mini posters allow users to market and sell their products over the social networks.
3) What we do — Extrability.co (Being)
In Israel, Lisha B.V. supports Extrability work at David Yellin College with disabled students. Extrability is a capability-first approach that focuses on “who a person can be and contribute,” not on deficits. Using reflective practice (daily/weekly journals) and a simple triangle model—student/user, teacher/coach, and an Intelligent Agent (TOPlisha)—educators can follow each learner’s development in a consistent way. The system produces structured summaries and dashboards that help teachers fine-tune the curriculum, identify strengths, progress patterns, and support needs while keeping privacy safeguards at the center.
4) Who we serve
Lisha B.V. serves community groups and cooperatives (farmers’ societies, women’s groups, youth groups), local coaches and trainers supporting those groups, NGOs and programs managing multiple groups (dashboards, monitoring, learning), financial institutions seeking better customer knowledge and reduced risk, and educational/inclusion programs (students with disabilities, educators, and support teams).
5) Value for institutions (why TOPlisha + Extrability)
Lisha B.V. helps institutions scale human support through a WhatsApp-first interface and structured workflows, producing comparable information for monitoring, learning, and decision-making. It supports a shift from “waiting for aid” to acting with local resources, and it creates traceable progress evidence that strengthens financing readiness. In education and inclusion contexts, it improves one-to-one visibility for teachers and supports capability-focused inclusion at scale, without losing the human relationship at the core.
6) Where we operate and how we implement
Deployments and pilots are running in Kenya, DRC, Burkina Faso, and Israel, supported by local implementation partners/coaches who assist onboarding, follow-up routines, and adoption inside groups and institutions.
7) Data & confidentiality
Access is subscription-based and role-based, limited to authorized individuals and organizations. Groups can decide which elements, if any, are made public on their profile pages. In education and inclusion contexts, processing is consent-based and designed according to privacy-by-design principles.
