Let Us Work Together for Unemployment Programme
Gramin Jan Vikas Samiti (GJVS) is an NGO committed to addressing critical issues in rural India, with unemployment being one of the most pressing concerns. High unemployment rates in rural areas lead to poverty, migration to urban centers, and social instability. To combat this, the Unemployment Programme by GJVS focuses on creating sustainable employment opportunities, empowering individuals with skills, and fostering local economic development.
Key Initiatives of the Unemployment Programme:
1. Skill Development and Vocational Training:
GJVS recognizes the need for skill-based education in rural areas, where formal employment opportunities are limited. The NGO offers vocational training in sectors such as agriculture, tailoring, carpentry, electrical work, and handicrafts. These programs are designed to equip individuals, particularly youth and women, with skills that are in demand, helping them secure stable livelihoods. By offering training in both traditional and modern trades, GJVS ensures participants are well-prepared for local and broader markets.
2. Entrepreneurship and Self-Employment Support:
GJVS encourages rural entrepreneurship by providing training and resources for individuals to start their own businesses. Through microcredit and self-help groups (SHGs), the NGO offers financial support and guidance on starting small businesses in agriculture, animal husbandry, retail, and crafts. This approach empowers individuals to become self-reliant and create job opportunities within their communities.
3. Agricultural and Allied Sector Support:
Given that agriculture is a primary source of livelihood in rural India, GJVS works closely with farmers to increase productivity through modern techniques, sustainable farming practices, and better market access. This not only boosts agricultural income but also creates jobs in allied sectors like food processing, storage, and logistics.
Through its Unemployment Programme, Gramin Jan Vikas Samiti is tackling rural joblessness by creating pathways for sustainable employment. The initiative helps reduce poverty, boosts local economies, and improves the overall quality of life for rural communities.
