Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj Research Training And Human Development Institute

We are based at the Institute of Education Technology, taking up the ground and first floor of the Balchitravani building on S.B. Road. Being on Senapati Bapat Road means we are right in the middle of everything in Pune. It’s a very busy area, but the building itself has a bit of an academic, quiet feel to it once you step inside. Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj Research Training And Human Development Institute is quite a long name, but we just think of ourselves as a team working on important social and research projects. The space is quite large compared to a standard office, with high ceilings and wide hallways. It’s an older building, so it has that slightly dusty, lived-in atmosphere of a place where a lot of learning has happened over the years. We spend our days going through data, writing reports, and hosting training sessions in the larger rooms. It’s not a shiny new corporate office with modern art on the walls. It feels more like a library or a traditional school. We have a lot of books and old files stored away. Most of us have been here for a while and we know all the little quirks of the building, like which windows are hard to open. It’s a steady, reliable place to work, and we like the history of the location.
