Economic Empowerment
In the tribal and Naxal-affected regions of Gadchiroli district, economic backwardness is one of the biggest challenges faced by communities. The lack of job opportunities, poor access to education, and low skill levels have kept many families trapped in poverty for generations. Women, in particular, suffer the most, often confined to household responsibilities with little chance for financial independence.
At The Josh Foundation, we believe that economic empowerment is the key to lasting change. When individuals, especially women and youth, are equipped with skills and opportunities, they can uplift their families and entire communities
Career Guidance
Many tribal students and youths do not get proper direction after completing basic schooling. Some drop out early due to financial issues, while others remain unemployed due to a lack of awareness.
We conduct career counselling sessions in rural villages and tribal schools to:
Guide students about further education and training.
Help them understand different career options available.
Provide information on government schemes, scholarships, and competitive exams.
Connect them to vocational training institutes and employment cells.
These efforts have helped many tribal youths make informed decisions and move toward a brighter future.
Skill Training Programmes
We regularly organize skill development workshops for tribal women and unemployed youth. The aim is to provide hands-on skills that can help them start small businesses or find employment locally. Some of the popular training areas include:
Tailoring and stitching
Mushroom cultivation
Beauty parlour and grooming
Handicrafts and local art
Basic computer and digital literacy
We ensure that trainers speak the local language and training material is easy to understand. Women are encouraged to participate in a safe and friendly environment.
