Launched on 8th August, 2015, this scheme will benefit minority youths who do not have a formal school leaving certificate, i.e., those in the category of school-dropouts or educated in community education institutions like Madarsas, with a view to enabling them to seek better employment in the organized sector and thus to equip them for better lives.
The World Bank has approved funding of US$ 50 million and recommended the scheme to countries in Africa faced with similar developmental challenges.
