An interactive, hands-on module covering effective communication, critical thinking, emotional resilience, problem-solving and positive decision-making.
Student Identity Cards Distribution

Key highlights of the initiative
Practical knowledge
Hands-on training in seed sanitisation, low-EC coco-peat preparation, micro-climate control and food-safe harvesting, with technical guidance from ICAR–KVK Ramanagara.
Hub-and-spoke enterprise model
Trainees manage local tray cultivation, while our central aggregation unit handles packaging and cold-chain delivery to Bengaluru’s culinary and organic retail markets.
Sustainable livelihoods
Rural women and youth receive take-home micro-starter kits to build steady household income within 45 km of major consumption hubs.
