Learn, then earn
Education & skill development
Classrooms for children kept from school, vocational batches for girls and women, and employment-oriented courses that meet the labour market.
Education in this organisation is rarely only a blackboard. It is a special school with a cook and a vocational instructor. It is a 15-day Chikankari course. It is two batches of retail marketing under NSDC. It is a seminar that explains Padho Pardesh and Nai Udaan to families who have never been told those names. The programmes below are the documented record of that work.
