interested in pursuing agriculture. More than 2000 youth from the pilot geographies availed of the services
through these hubs.

Through this initiative, the physical hubs where rural youth had access to skilling, employment and
entrepreneurship, partnerships has instituted framework for place-based system shifts to create
economic opportunities for rural youth at a large scale. Local resource has been mobilized and district
administration has committed to converge all efforts for employment and enterprise.
