Vision/ Mission Statement
Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana (DDU-GKY) is a placement linked skill development program for rural poor youth under National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM). It is a market-led, placement linked skill development program for providing wage employment to rural poor youth.
Brief History
Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana (DDU-GKY) scheme has its origin in the wage employment linked “Special Projects” for skilling component of the Swarnajayanti Gram Swarojgar Yojana (SGSY), which was subsequently renamed as Aajeevika Skills when SGSY was converted as NRLM. Taking into account the focus on improving quality and employment outcomes in the National Policy on Skill Development, and the need to increase the coverage of Skill Development programs in remote rural areas, the scheme has been announced as DDU-GKY on 25th September 2014. The skilling program for rural youth has now been refocused and re-prioritized to build the capacity of rural poor youth to address the needs of domestic and global skill requirements.
