Skill Development Centre in Gurgaon Helping Women Build Sustainable Livelihoods|Off-topic Stuff|Forum|SNES HUB

Empowering women through skill-based training is an important step toward building stronger communities. On 9th March 2026, Sakshi, widely regarded as one of the best NGOs in Gurgaon, inaugurated a new Skill Development Centre in Gurgaon at Abehpur Village in partnership with Rio Tinto.

The centre will provide training in stitching and garment production, equipping local women with practical skills required in the apparel industry. By connecting training with employment opportunities in nearby garment manufacturing companies, the initiative aims to create sustainable livelihood pathways for women in the region.

This program builds upon the success of an existing Skill Development Centre in Dundahera, Gurgaon, where Sakshi and Rio Tinto currently train around 30 women each month, many of whom secure placements in local garment factories. Such placement-linked training programs help ensure that learning leads to real employment opportunities.

The inauguration event was attended by representatives from Sakshi, Rio Tinto, and the Sarpanch of Abehpur Village, who welcomed the trainees and highlighted the importance of skill development in improving economic independence for women.

By establishing community-based training centres, the best NGO in Gurgaon continues to support women in gaining skills, employment, and confidence to contribute to their families and communities.
