Katharina Bosse is doing psychological counselling to experts in Humanitarian Aid and Development Cooperation in the field.
Aid and development workers face specific issues while working in the Global South that employees in other sectors do not face – it is the thrill of the expat life. Some of those issues, she has come across as well – the quest for an intense life abroad, the longing for deep experience, the fascination by diverse environments and the hope to make a difference and generate impact. And she has also been confronted with some challenges that an expat life entails for partnership, family and career plans. Her knowledge, her competencies and her experience lay exactly at the intersection between psychology and development cooperation. She supports experts in the field in private and professional crises and she consults with their employers regarding Duty of Care and Mental Health at the workplace. Her work attitude is based both on the knowledge gained from her formal education and her work experience in Germany and from numerous field studies to the Global South. She has been pursuing continuous Buddhist mind training since 2017, practicing mindfulness and meditation every day.
« To witness how people grow out of times of crisis, to see people transform by dealing with challenges fulfill me – it is the driving force of my job life ».
