Kotak Unnati

In megacities like Mumbai, a large number of young people drop out of schools and colleges. Many of them come from Below Poverty Line (BPL) families that are usually unemployed or underemployed, earning very low wages. Kotak Unnati is a livelihood programme that imparts employable skills to these youth aged 18 to 25 years.

It includes:

  • A 3-month programme that offers training in hospitality, customer relations or sales (including two weeks of on-the-job training).
  • Training in spoken English, basic IT skills, personality development and other life skills.
  • Help with placements, so they can find upwardly mobile jobs with reputed companies, and earn monthly salaries that’ll enable their families to rise out of poverty.
