There are lakhs of college drop outs, fresh graduates & unemployed youth that need to be trained to enhance their employability skills. In addition to this, industry-specific programmes for professionals have to be created and conducted to enhance their skills and make them more productive in areas of Sustainable Development. Through extensive research and due diligence over the last 2 years, the GSA has assessed the technological and human resource capabilities to address green skills training and development.
