Education and Skill Development
DLF Foundation supported an Education and Skills Development initiative in rural areas around Tehri Garhwal in Uttarakhand, aimed at empowering economically disadvantaged women through livelihood training and community development. The project focused on promoting economic self-sufficiency, skill enhancement, and improved social status among women in rural communities. As part of the programme, a cowshed, milk processing and training rooms, and livelihood-based production activities were undertaken during the year. Additionally, equipment such as milking machines, bulk milk coolers, fogger systems, packing machines, chaff cutters, deep freezers, milk cans, storage units, and knitting and sewing machines were procured to support activities related to dairy farming, tailoring, knitting, and other income-generating work. Training modules focused on knitting, sewing, and dairy farming, providing participants with practical skills that fostered entrepreneurship and financial independence. The initiative supported vulnerable women, providing structured vocational skills and livelihood opportunities, thereby contributing to the overall economic resilience of rural communities.
