Terre Des Hommes Germany

Our India programme office is located at Pudamjee Park in Pune, specifically near the Police Lines on Pandita Ramabai Road. It’s an old part of the city with a lot of trees and some very quiet streets. The building, Regie Hoop, has been our base for quite some time now. We are a small team here, and we handle a lot of the coordination for the different projects we are involved in. It’s not a very modern office; it has that old Pune charm with wooden doors and high ceilings. We spend a lot of our time looking over reports and talking to our partners on the phone. It can get a bit overwhelming with all the paperwork, but we just take it one day at a time. Sometimes the traffic outside gets loud, but mostly it’s peaceful. We don't go in for big, flashy presentations or anything like that. We just sit at our desks and get the work done. People who visit often comment on how lived-in the office feels. We’ve got stacks of files and maps on the walls. It’s a practical space for people who are serious about what they do. We don't really have a hierarchy or anything corporate like that. We just work together to make sure everything is running the way it should be. It’s a steady, quiet kind of work that we do here every day from this old building.
