Shopian : A Women Entrepreneurship and Self-Help Group (SHG) Mela under Mission YUVA was Tuesday organised by the District Employment and Counselling Centre (DE&CC), Shopian at Government Degree College (GDC), Shopian.
The objective of the Mela was to promote awareness about Mission YUVA among SHGs of the district by sensitising them through awareness sessions, enterprise showcasing, mentoring and on-ground application support.
The programme commenced with a welcome address by the Employment Officer, DE&CC Shopian, who briefed the participants and SHG members about the benefits of the Mission YUVA App and its associated schemes. He highlighted the role of Mission YUVA in providing access to skill development opportunities, financial assistance and employment-related information.
While addressing the gathering, the Employment Officer stated that in Tuesday’s dynamic economic landscape, entrepreneurship is no longer just an option but a necessity. He emphasised that Mission YUVA aims to empower youth especially women by enabling them to become job creators rather than job seekers.
More than 250 SHG members from across District Shopian participated in the event. Faculty members and resource persons from concerned institutions conducted training and mentoring sessions, while YUVA Doots actively facilitated awareness and on-ground application support.
The event concluded with a felicitation ceremony, during which best-performing SHGs were awarded mementos in recognition of their efforts and achievements.
