As a run-up to the upcoming fourth G20 Education Working Group meeting scheduled in Pune from 20th to 21st June 2023, the MSDE announced the launch of Jan Bhagidari initiatives across the country today through a webinar, which will be undertaken between June 1st-15th across all skill development institutions and centers. Aligned with Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s call to make “Jan Bhagidari” a ‘People’s Movement’ a strong element of India’s G20 Presidency.
The summit provides us with the chance to position India as the world’s hub for skills as well as a provider of labor to other nations struggling with skill shortages and unmet demand. The summit will feature career counseling sessions, expert lectures, apprenticeship awareness workshops, skill hackathons, essay and quiz competitions, skill showcase competitions, skill olympiad, webinar series, training of trainers, digital courses, skill masterclasses, and career counseling sessions to raise awareness about the future of work, green economy, and lifelong learning.
While addressing the webinar, Shri Atul Kumar Tiwari, Secretary, Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship, said, “I am certain that through Jan Bhagidari events we will promote the mindset of becoming job-creators, instead of being job seekers among the skill ecosystem.”
