From Congestion to Conservation: Rediscovering the Peths of Pune

In our documentary, "From Congestion to Conservation: Peths of Pune," Parisar explores the heart of our city, the historic Peth areas. While these neighbourhoods represent the cultural soul of Pune, they are increasingly grappling with modern urban challenges, including heavy traffic, rising pollution, and a decline in overall liveability.

The film goes beyond documenting these issues; it serves as a call to action. We advocate for a shift toward sustainable development that honours Pune’s heritage while reimagining these spaces for the people who live and work there today. By integrating sustainable transport solutions and fostering active community participation, we believe we can transform the Peth areas back into the vibrant, walkable, and people-centric spaces they were meant to be.

Preserving the historic heart of our city is essential to ensuring Pune remains a thriving home for future generations. We invite you to watch the video, join the conversation, and work with us to protect the spirit of our city.
