Communique Green Foundation

Our spot is at 83 Udyog Vihar Phase IV, which is one of those parts of Gurgaon that never really sleeps. If you've ever tried to drive through Phase IV around five in the evening, you know exactly what I’m talking about. It’s all warehouses and offices and a lot of people rushing around. We occupy a small part of the building at number 83. It’s a functional space, mostly just computers and some basic furniture. We spend most of our time here at Communique Green Foundation just keeping up with the daily tasks. It’s not the kind of place you’d come for a tour, it’s just where the work happens. The air conditioning works most of the time, which is a blessing in the Haryana heat. We see a lot of delivery trucks and people from the nearby factories passing by our windows. Sometimes the noise from the street is a bit much, but you get used to it after a week or two. We’ve got a small kettle for making chai and that’s about the extent of our kitchen. We don’t bother with much decoration because we’re usually too busy with the files. It’s a practical setup for the kind of stuff we do. Most of the people working here live nearby, so we’re all locals in a way. It’s just how we operate, out of a simple office in a busy industrial area.
