I am Manish Mohandas, a development professional currently working with UNDP India. My work spans Disaster Management, Climate Change, Policy Development, and Resource Mobilization. In addition to my professional work, I am also a certified professional coach. I occasionally help people untangle the existential crises of modern working life.
I spend a substantial part of my day reading. History, literature, science, philosophy, psychology, political theory, graphic novels—anything that offers the illusion of understanding is fair game.This blog is my attempt to share the interesting ideas, stories, and curiosities I encounter along the way. I also think of it as my digital garden—a space to cultivate thoughts, collect fragments of knowledge, and nurture them through short, occasional posts.
Welcome, and thank you for stopping by.
