Objective: To equip young women with 21st-century employability skills, enhance their financial and digital literacy, and provide employment/self-employment support, fostering long-term economic empowerment

The Skilling to Employment of Young Women program is designed to empower young women aged 18-29 by making them financially independent through skill development and connecting them to suitable job opportunities. It focuses on providing career training, skill enhancement, and practical support to help women secure employment or start small businesses. It was implemented across 50 villages in 5 blocks of Dholpur district, Rajasthan.

The program approach starts from Team building & orientation, Mobilization/ kobo forms, Registration on P2E Portal, Online skilling, Assessment & Online Certification, Placement/ Self Employment to hand holding support.

We supported beneficiaries in establishing 10 Didi Ki Dukaan outlets, promoting small businesses, self-employment, and jobs. Women trained as “Didi Entrepreneurs” gained skills in business planning, financial literacy, risk management, and customer handling while connecting to supply chains. P2E online training further enhanced their financial and digital skills, leading to certification. Exposure visits were also provided for practical industry insights
