THEME: Develop effective solutions for education and skill development.

India is progressing at an astonishing rate and has carved a niche for itself across the globe in every sphere – be it technology, art, motion pictures, music or literature. However, as is the case with all developing countries, the problem of socio-economic disparity is rampant all over India too. This leads to societal gaps that limit the chances of the underprivileged to live a financially independent and respectable life. Such individuals are often unaware of the available skill development opportunities that could help them to fuel their socio-economic progress. In order to foster growth, every developing nation needs to engage in greater initiation and promotion of skill development programs. As a country with the median age of 28 years, we are a young country with the world’s largest youth population & an immense opportunity lying ahead of us. However, due to the vast rural population and lack of a uniform learning opportunity, we are unable to harness this humongous opportunity.
