Speaking on the initiative, Ms. Debashree Mukherjee, Secretary, Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, said, “Project NAVYA reflects our commitment to moving beyond conventional skilling towards holistic empowerment of young girls. By integrating life skills, financial literacy, workplace safety and workplace productivity into the learning journey, we are equipping adolescent girls with the confidence and capabilities required to succeed. This initiative strengthens the objective of creating dignified employment opportunities for women and their meaningful participation in the economy.”

As part of this partnership, a common module for holistic development has been introduced for Adolescent Girls (AGs) enrolled under Project NAVYA. The modules, developed by the Wadhwani Foundation, are being provided free of cost to all NAVYA beneficiaries and are designed to support personal growth, work readiness, self-employment potential and meaningful community participation.

The holistic curriculum addresses key dimensions such as workplace safety, financial literacy, necessary life and employability skills, recognizing these as essential enablers for long-term employability and resilience. The 10-hour online programme includes structured learning on interpersonal skills, impactful writing skills, financial literacy, workplace safety and the use of productivity tools required in modern work environments.
