Vocational Training in Andhra Pradesh – Creating Jobs and Reducing Migration

ASSIST India addresses unemployment in rural areas through vocational training programs. Many young people in these regions have limited access to skills training and jobs. Without opportunities, they migrate to cities where they can face exploitation, unsafe work and become victims of trafficking.

Abbey Solutions supports vocational training programs that focus on:

• Skills Development & Entrepreneurship – Hands-on vocational training and seed funding for local micro-businesses

• Reducing Urban Migration – Sustainable jobs in rural Andhra Pradesh to keep communities together and strong

Thousands of rural youth have gained employment and created stable futures in their home villages.
