Opportunities across India

Development work happens everywhere.

From metropolitan cities to rural and tribal communities, Development Wala aims to make opportunities more accessible across every state and region of India — helping candidates discover opportunities based on location, sector, skills, experience and career interests.

From rural development jobs in India to remote jobs, government jobs, NGO jobs, CSR opportunities, UN jobs in India and international development careers, our goal is to make impact opportunities easier to find.

Built for India’s development sector

India has one of the world’s largest and most diverse social sectors, with thousands of NGOs, foundations, social enterprises, CSR programmes, development institutions and public-sector initiatives working across critical issues.

Yet opportunities are often scattered across different websites, social media pages, organisation websites and networks.

Development Wala brings these opportunities together in one searchable ecosystem.

Our mission

To make meaningful work and impact opportunities more discoverable, accessible and connected.

Our vision

We envision a future where every person who wants to contribute to social and economic development can easily discover the right opportunity — and every organisation working for positive change can find the right people, resources and connections.

Development Wala is building a stronger bridge between talent and impact.
