Center For Advocacy And Research

Our office is tucked away in Century Quarters, right in Worli. If you know where the TV Centre is, we are just near that. It’s Room 24 in Building 15 on P B Marg. It's a typical Mumbai setup, a bit tight on space but there's a lot going on. We call ourselves the Center For Advocacy And Research. Most of the time, the desks are piled high with papers and reports. It’s a lot of reading and talking to people, trying to figure out how things are working on the ground. The commute to Worli can be a headache with the traffic, but being centrally located helps when we need to meet folks. We don't have a shiny lobby or anything like that. It’s just a room where we can sit down and do the research work. Some days it’s quiet, other days everyone is talking at once. We've been here for a while, and the building has that old Mumbai character to it. You hear the city outside all the time. We aren't doing this for the fame or anything, we just think the research part is important. There is always something to look into or a new project starting up. It keeps us on our toes. We usually drink way too much chai while we work. It’s just how we get through the long afternoons when the humidity is high. We don't put on any acts here, we just do the research.
