On 9th March 2026, Sakshi, widely regarded as one of the best NGOs in Gurgaon, inaugurated a new Skill Development Centre in Gurgaon at Abehpur Village in partnership with Rio Tinto.
The centre will provide training in stitching and garment production, equipping local women with practical skills required in the apparel industry. By connecting training with employment opportunities in nearby garment manufacturing companies, the initiative aims to create sustainable livelihood pathways for women in the region.
This program builds upon the success of an existing Skill Development Centre in Dundahera, Gurgaon, where Sakshi and Rio Tinto currently train around 30 women each month, many of whom secure placements in local garment factories. Such placement-linked training programs help ensure that learning leads to real employment opportunities.
