Amid the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Amma’s massive women’s Self-Help Groups (SHG) program, AmritaSREE, in collaboration with Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham and the UNESCO Chair on Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment, launched an ambitious series of large-scale multi-skilling training projects. These projects were designed to uplift and empower women and transgender individuals in rural communities, enhancing their livelihood resilience and boosting SHG performance in the post-pandemic era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To date, these initiatives have successfully trained more than 5,000 women and transgender individuals in various vocational and life skills. Notably, 4,500 of them received training through the prestigious SANKALP-AVSAR program coordinated by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) under the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE). The training covered a wide range of valuable skills, including tailoring, beautician services, seaweed cultivation, beekeeping, general duty assistant roles, mushroom cultivation, embroidery, agriculture, and goatery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
