❤️ Inclusive Employment
Everyone deserves the opportunity to contribute.
Shanti Nivas is more than a holiday home.
It is our vision of a place where nature, hospitality and social responsibility grow together.
As Shanti Nivas grows, we hope to create meaningful employment for people who are often overlooked in the job market.
Not because they need sympathy.
Because they deserve opportunity.
🌱 Every Journey Begins with One Person
Every meaningful project begins with a first step.
So does ours.
The first member of our team is a member of our own family. He lives with a physical disability that affects his mobility.
But that is not what defines him.
We see his motivation.
His reliability.
His willingness to contribute.
Working together has reminded us of something simple:
Everyone has something valuable to offer when given the opportunity.
That belief has become one of the foundations of Shanti Nivas.
🤝 Inclusion Begins with Trust
We believe that every person has unique strengths.
Sometimes all it takes is a workplace that recognises those strengths instead of focusing on limitations.
No one can do everything.
But everyone can do something.
Our goal is to create meaningful roles that provide responsibility, purpose and the opportunity to take pride in one’s work.
Success is not measured by how many people we employ.
It is measured by whether people feel valued, respected and able to grow.
❤️ Who Do We Hope to Support?
As Shanti Nivas grows, we hope to create opportunities for people who often face barriers when looking for meaningful employment.
These may include:
- ❤️ People with mild physical disabilities
- 🤟 People who are deaf or hard of hearing
- 👩👧 Single parents
- 🌾 People from low-income families
- 🎓 Young adults who left school or vocational training early but demonstrate motivation, reliability and a willingness to learn
- 👨👩👧 Family members – provided they meet exactly the same standards and expectations as every other member of our team
For us, the past is not the most important part of someone’s story.
What matters most is the future we can build together.
🌿 Growing Together
As Shanti Nivas continues to grow, new opportunities will emerge step by step.
Every new project creates the chance for someone to learn, contribute and become part of our journey.
Depending on the needs of the project, future roles may include:
- 🌳 Caring for our forest restoration project
- 🌺 Gardening and landscape maintenance
- 🏡 Supporting the day-to-day operation of our holiday home
- 🧹 Housekeeping and property maintenance
- 😊 Welcoming and assisting our guests
- 📸 Documenting the growth of Shanti Nivas and its projects
- 🎨 Creative, practical and craft-based work
Every position should be matched to the individual’s strengths, abilities and interests.
Our goal is not simply to create jobs.
Our goal is to create work that gives people confidence, purpose and a long-term perspective.
🌏 Growing Together with Our Community
For us, sustainability means more than protecting nature.
It also means investing in people.
Wherever possible, we want to work with local residents, local businesses and local craftspeople.
Strong communities are built through long-term relationships, mutual respect and shared responsibility.
We believe that Shanti Nivas can only grow if the surrounding community grows with it.
⭐ Our Commitment
We are not aiming to create the largest number of jobs.
We want to create meaningful jobs.
Jobs that people can be proud of.
Jobs that build confidence.
Jobs that demonstrate how diversity, respect and opportunity can strengthen a community.
💚 Fairness Comes First
Being part of our family does not automatically mean being part of our team.
Family members are welcome to apply, but they must meet exactly the same standards, responsibilities and expectations as every other employee.
We believe that trust can only grow where fairness comes first.
🌿 Our Journey Is Only Beginning
Today, we cannot say how many people will become part of Shanti Nivas in the years ahead.
But we do know the path we want to follow.
Step by step.
With respect.
With patience.
And with the sincere desire to create genuine opportunities for people.
Because lasting change is built one person at a time.
❤️ Together, We Can Make a Difference
Every meaningful change begins with a single opportunity.
Perhaps one day, someone will look back and say:
“Shanti Nivas gave me the opportunity to believe in myself.”
If that happens, we will know that this project has achieved something truly meaningful.
And if you believe in this vision, we’d be honoured to have you become part of our journey.
