Through a multi-stakeholder participatory model – corporate stakeholders, government (hyper local, local, and state) bodies and officials, and local NGO partner networks of the two organizations, will jointly conduct workshops, enhance learning, and provide skilling and training facilities.

Additionally, women-led enterprises will be promoted through active engagements with state governments.

Vidya Shah, Executive Chairperson, EdelGive Foundation said, “Through this partnership, both EdelGive and FICCI have come together to boost the upskilling of women entrepreneurs at the grassroot level, create a linkage between them and the larger ecosystem, and enable them to build a business/ entrepreneurial network of their own. As there is an existing and clear synergy between our work via the #UdyamStree campaign and FICCI’s Greater 50 campaign, the purpose of the present MoU is to set up a system of cooperation based on the expertise of both the organizations, to ensure the further strengthening of our initiatives to support and empower women.”

We value this partnership. We will make every effort to give more power to the women of India to be the best form of themselves and contribute to a women-led development of the country as a whole”.
