Gujarat Government announced 'Mission Mangalam' - as an integrated poverty alleviation approach in a demand driven convergence mode.
‘Mission Mangalam’ aims to bring the critical mass of resources to address poverty by creating a single platform for stakeholders like Banks, Industry Partners, Micro Finance Institutes and Skill Imparting Institutions, etc. to deliver desired outcomes.
While building social business enterprises, the concept of ‘Mission Mangalam’ envisages integration of Self Help groups and their federations into the value chain of investors.
on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee Year celebration of Gujarat on 1st May 2010, State government announced Mission Mangalam. Gujarat Livelihood Promotion Company (GLPC) is the executive arm of Mission Mangalam, the implementation agency for NRLM.
Under SKill Development GLPC is the nodal agency for implementation of DDU-GKY Project in the State of Gujarat. The District Livelihoods Manager is the key person who is responsible for quality implementation and monitoring of schemes sponsored by State and Central Government.
We must appreciate the strong network of women self help groups called Sakhi Mandal. They have been instrumental in implementing all livelihoods program in the State. In Skill Development also they have been supporting in Mobilisation, Counselling, Tracking, Motivating for retention etc.
DDU-GKY is one of the major program which is dedicated for skill development of rural poor youths of State. As a Central Technical Support Agency (CTSA) NIRD & PR is monitoring the quality implementation of the projects.
Other Skill Development Projects like NULM, SDI, PMKVY etc are also functional in the State but they are being implemented by different nodal agencies of State.
In India, Gujarat is the State where prosperity is fullest. People are more inclined towards self employment compared to wage employment. In Rural areas where education is poor, people want to learn skills and connect it with employment. Their enthusiasm and zeal shows the passion to learn new skills.
Gujarat has given birth to many skill factory owners like Reliance, Godrej, Adani etc. Skill is natural here. Even youths of Gujarat thinks solution of problems technically and keeping all the fact of future employment generation, it is important to explore new avenues of skilling in State Gujarat. The day is not far when it will be the most technically advanced skilled State of country.
