The project aspires to connect the mentees with influential Mentors. These Mentors will counsel and encourage the specially abled youth to learn digital and life skills, which will help them lead a life of honour, dignity, independence and motivate them to become contributors in their community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The initiative has been designed to link 10 urban leaders, all experts in their respective fields, to five differently abled youth each who will be trained in digital literacy and skill building by the mentors. These mentees will become the change agents in their respective areas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While the project is primarily targeted at capacity building for the differently abled youth, the learners as well as the mentees will work closely with the community gatekeepers and other stakeholders to initiate socio-behavioural, cultural and economic changes (within the larger community).<\/span>[\/vc_column_text]
