Sagarmala-DDUGKY Convergence Program (Phase-2) MoU signing ceremony-Kerala<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Enhancing Opportunities: Kudumbashree and Project Implementing Agencies Join Hands in Sagarmala-DDUGKY Convergence Program<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development of a nation hinges not only on economic progress but also on ensuring that its citizens, across regions and demographics, have access to opportunities that can uplift their lives. One such innovative initiative is the Sagarmala-DDUGKY Convergence Program, which brings together the maritime sector’s Sagarmala project and the skill development efforts of the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana (DDUGKY). This unique synergy aims to empower coastal communities by imparting skills that align with the needs of the maritime and allied industries, ultimately fostering economic growth and inclusive development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding Sagarmala and DDU-GKY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sagarmala project, launched by the Government of India, envisions comprehensive port-led development that spans port modernization, logistics improvement, and skill enhancement in coastal regions. It recognizes the untapped potential of India’s coastline and its maritime resources in driving economic growth. On the other hand, the DDUGKY scheme, aims to provide rural youth with market-oriented training, leading to their placement in various sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Convergence: Strengthening Coastal Communities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sagarmala-DDUGKY Convergence Program capitalizes on the symbiotic relationship between these two initiatives. By bridging the gap between the demand for skilled workforce in the maritime and allied sectors and the potential workforce available in coastal areas, the program addresses unemployment, poverty, and skill mismatch simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a significant step, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been signed between Kudumbashree (Kerala SRLM) and 9 Project Implementing Agencies, marks a pivotal moment in the Sagarmala-DDUGKY convergence program. This collaboration holds the promise of leveraging collective strengths to uplift marginalized populations through skill development, employment opportunities, and sustainable growth, ultimately transforming the lives of communities across coastal regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was part of the Phase-2 launch of the Sagarmala-DDUGKY Convergence Program in Kerala. In the initial Phase-1, a target of 85 was sanctioned to JSS Malappuram (PIA) in the state. 77 candidates were trained in Phase-1 and out of those, 30 candidates got placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MoU signing ceremony, held at Thiruvananathapuram on 26 July 2023, marked an important step towards realizing the vision of the Sagarmala-DDUGKY Convergence Program. The event was graced by Shri.Jaffar Malik IAS (ED Kudumbashree), representatives from Kudumbashree, NIRD & PR (CTSA) and Directors\/CEOs from the 9 PIAs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Project Implementing Agencies play a pivotal role in executing the skill development and employment generation aspects of the program. With a focus on skill training that aligns with the demands of industries related to port-led development, these agencies ensure that the workforce developed is job-ready and equipped with the necessary skills to contribute effectively to the growth of the maritime sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The convergence program’s success lies in its ability to merge the strengths of both partners. Kudumbashree’s ground-level connect and understanding of community dynamics dovetail seamlessly with the technical expertise of the PIAs. Together, they create a comprehensive ecosystem that nurtures talent and fosters employment<\/p>\n\n\n\n
