LIVELIHOOD & SKILL DEVELOPMENT
Livelihood Enhancement through Skill Development:
The youth comprises over one-third of the Indian population which in turn constitutes a major part of the labour force of the country. The number of underprivileged youth in India who lacks education and proper guidance is huge.
It is not their lack of knowledge that is the reason for this. They do not get chance to learn the right skill suitable for earning livelihoods in their local areas. They do not possess the right skills and attitude. It is crucial for the energy of the underprivileged youth to be channelized properly in the right direction and learning to aid in their economic growth and make them contribute to nation building.
Problems that we face in youths for skill development
- Key skill gaps and shortage of quality workers in almost every sector
- Inadequate skill sets available
- Inadequate project management skills
- Inadequate orientation to develop and adhere to safety norms at work site
- Inadequate work ethics
- Inadequate work opportunities in the locality
- Casual in work, absenteeism, unwillingness to work, etc. are observe
