Every day physical fitness workout and yoga are a must. I believe in the mantra that WIN IN MIND and WIN IN LIFE. prakash What I came to know about SOS Children’s Villages of India is something I was not aware of till date. The idea of living as a family and SOS CVI supporting the cause limitlessly is a great gesture and a rarity today. I am sure many have benefited from the values learnt here. The youth today have to be groomed in all aspects of life so that they become the best in their chosen path. The SOS CVI is providing that necessary required skill-training and has accomplished it successfully. I wish the entire SOS team all the very best in all the future projects and endeavours.”

Speaking at the occasion, Mr. Sumanta Kar, Secretary General, SOS Children’s Villages, said: “We at SOS CVI ensure that we support our children with relevant employable skills. The aim is to not just to find them jobs but getting the right job to be self-reliant and responsible citizens. We assess the aptitude of each child and support their education and skill development accordingly. We enroll Classes VIII and X students in multiple programs to identify their interests and existing skills. After extensive counselling sessions, we support them to choose the courses that are best suited from them. The Positive Youth Development Curriculum and Resilience Building assist the young people in developing emotional, social, physical and cognitive skills. The focus is on experiential learning and build aspirations among them. This enables the youth to grow holistically.”

At SOS Children Villages of India , enough exposure is given to digital skills to about 7,000 students who are studying in schools, and over 6,500 children who are being raised in 32 children’s SOS villages across India under the ‘Family Like Care’ model. From the skilling perspective, the five basic parameters: 1) ensuring that every child completes at least higher secondary education, 2) he or she is good at English communication, 3) has basic IT skills, 4) is good at social skills, and 5) has acquired a vocational and employable skill, are considered to help children for a better future.

Another key aspect is imparting values. Usually, the discussions on skill development revolve only around employability. Value education does not figure in the equation. But more often than not, it is one’s values that help the person enjoy long-term success in career and personal and social life. In this context, the scope of skill development projects, whenever possible, should ensure that the youth imbibe values of discipline, and inculcate the attitude of continuous learning. In all the structured positive youth development programmes, the focus is on the 4Cs: Collaboration, creativity, compassion and confidence.
