Why Bodhi Soul

We believe that people working in human development are special, and the profession itself is a calling. However, the nature of jobs often involve unsettling and stressful situations that can lead to stressful lives, and burn outs; that can affect professional and personal lives.

Bodhi Soul aims to address this, by empowering the self, building resilience, and to restore the energy to be a passionate and transformative force in your work and  personal lives, and above all, just to make sure you relax!

About The Development CAFE

Bodhi Soul is a program created by The Development CAFE, a Global Network of Development Professionals and Social Scientists.

The Development CAFE operates as a think-tank/forum to exchange ideas; as research initiator and ICT4D support organisation; as a bridge between governments, development agencies and local projects.

At The Development CAFE we connect life-changers, bridge grassroots and policy and give voice to the voiceless.  We believe that we can help others only after we have helped ourselves: this is why we have created the Bodhi Soul program.
