6 Make in India Make in North EAST Opportunities and Challenges The North East region of India comprises of approximately 8% of our countries land bank, and only 3% of the population. With abundant natural resources, and limited employment opportunities- there lies a vast potential to Make in the North East! When we speak of Make in India, and the opportunity of providing livelihood to the unemployed youth, an opportunity lies in looking at the North East region of India- through the right set of multifocal zoom lens. The lens needs to shows you the boundaries far and wide and yet allows you to zoom into the detail of the culture, tradition, language. The challenges include logistics, tribal influence, missing infrastructure, abundance of natural resources with limited means of converting or value adding, and the unavailability of an organised manufacturing sector. MEL s initiatives in North East recognizes these challenges and are aimed at converting them into opportunities. Our Skill initiatives in this region focuses on local resources and traditional skills along with developing partnerships and infrastructure for market linkages and self employment. Make in India

8 A. OBJECTIVE OF THE SCHEME: Project OverView The objective of the project is to create self sustaining skill training, by creating a pool of trainers who can work to achieve results. Skill selected are based on the availability of the natural resources and basic skills of that region. Training would include aspects like -better organisation of raw materials, product development, technology, and markets/ industry linkages for the existing unemployed youth of their respective districts / villages. Thus, the trainings offer them both, know how on optimizing local resources and employable skills. The objective is also to work at the grass root level and try and enhance capacity of existing self help groups towards better employment opportunity, while also creating new ones.

9 B. PROJECT COVERAGE : Project OverView In the NE we are working with a two prong strategy - one to cover various regions at the grass root level, and secondly to create a Skill Hub - nodal centre for training which will introduce technology and provide support to the trainers. This Skill Hub will also be used for Training of trainers and other activities to standardise the training process. In J&K we are working with regional partners who have existing tie ups with infrastructure that runs courses under the Ministry of Textiles mandate. Modelama proposes to add value by increasing the pool of qualified trainers and standardising the training by providing quality content, thereby making the trainees more employable. During the course of our project we also propose to create more market linkages. This will help achieve scalability in the coming years, in order to meet the requirement of training 15.5 lakh youth, in proportion for the NE and J&K region. Having a strong emphasis on market linkages we would be working to bridge the gap between the existing product skills and the skills needed to make products that are have a clear demand. Overview

25 8.C. Market Linkages for the artisans trained in centers in partnership with World Vision: The Artisans trained in centers of World Vision are being encouraged for opting for self-employment. The main reason for this is that these artisans are mostly women and they are not open to employment outside their locality. They have families and hence are not willing to take up employment outside their locality. Understanding this, MEL along with World Vision has come up with self employment model for these artisans. The artisans are encouraged to form SHG after their training and take microfinance for buying the Looms/Sewing Machine Most of these trained artisans have purchased Sewing Machines and have started their own Business operating from home. They are getting orders from their neighbors and have started getting income. Evidence provided of some trainees in CD. Market Linkages

26 8.D. Market Linkages for the artisans trained in Partnership with Siang Tea & Industries(P) Ltd: The artisans trained in these centers are mostly from the tea gardens of Siang Tea & Industries(P) Ltd. These artisans after their training mostly have bought sewing machines at their homes and have started making products like churidars,salwar kammez etc. They have also started making small bags and pouches for sale to the tea estate. This has resulted in their incomes getting enhanced. 8.E. Market linkages for the artisans trained in partnership with NIK-FER: The artisans trained in Water Hyacinth in partnership with NIK-FER become part of the extended work force of NIK-FER. NIK-FER takes part in many exhibitions and displays the products developed at the training center. The orders or enquires received at this exhibition are given to these trained artisans and are paid for making the products.
