vision

At the heart of Meghalaya’s youth development strategy is the belief that youth engagement, aspiration-building and self-efficacy nurtured through personal development and talent recognition interventions are indispensable to the State’s efforts in significantly improving youth potential and employability.

While the vision of the government is to nurture a skill and talent for all youth and ensure that every youth has access to livelihood opportunities, it is important that we first identify their innate capabilities so we can align their aspirations with skilling opportunities that are relevant. The foundational soft skills and talent recognition modules under Aspire Meghalaya will lay the groundwork for further endeavours by the State Government to support the skilling needs of our youth communities across Districts. The programmes are expected to help them explore career paths for themselves and identify the skills they need to access these careers. The modules are carefully curated to equip young adults across the State with the skillsets they need to build wholesome lives and to transform their innate talents into career-worthy assets.
