Vichaar Nirmaan Foundation

We are located at 12 Royal Crescent Bunglow, which is tucked away in the lane by the Jalsa Party Plot. It’s in the Thaltej area of Ahmedabad. If you know Sandipani Society, we are right behind there. This neighborhood has changed a lot over the last few years with more houses and shops popping up. Our office is basically a house that we’ve turned into a workspace. It feels more like a home than a business, which I think people appreciate when they come to see us. We have a small garden out front that needs a bit more watering than it gets, but the plants are holding on. Inside, it’s mostly desks and piles of books and papers. We do a lot of thinking and planning here. Since we are in a residential lane, it’s usually pretty quiet, except when there is a wedding or a party at the plot nearby. Then the music gets quite loud, but we don’t mind the noise much. Ahmedabad is a busy city, so having this little corner in Thaltej is nice. We don't have a big staff, just a few of us who live nearby and walk or bike over. We try to keep things straightforward and honest. People come here when they want to talk about new ideas or how to get things started in the community. It's just a regular place for regular work, and we stay busy with it.
