Skill Development Program for Livelihood Opportunities

Skill development is very important as it equips women with practical abilities to secure employment, start businesses, and contribute to the economy. In a rapidly changing job market, women need access to modern skills in technology, healthcare, entrepreneurship, and vocational trades. Focused initiatives in education, practical skills, life skills, and digital literacy can help women achieve financial independence, earn a livelihood and leadership roles, resulting in driving India’s economic and social development.

Apart from Livelihood opportunities, skill development training programs for women impact communities in several ways:

Challenging Traditional Norms: Women are embracing new trades and skills, breaking conventional barriers while staying attuned to the evolving employment landscape.

Building Confidence and Self-Reliance: These programs empower women to become confident, self-reliant, and active participants in decision-making both at home and in their communities.

Creating Career Pathways: Skill centres serve as platforms for continuous learning, enabling women to start and develop their careers from the ground up.

Some of the initiatives, like Sakshi NGO’s Sewing Machine Operator Course reach this approach and show a positive contribution towards women's livelihood programs. Through this program, many women benefit from earning an income, getting placed in the garment industry, achieving self-reliance, certification, and economic independence
