Shri Prasana Prabhu, Chairman of the Art of Living’s Sri Sri Rural Development Programme Trust, met Shri Sampad Chandra Swain, Hon’ble Skill Minister of Odisha, for a comprehensive discussion on expanding skilling and placement opportunities for youth across the state.
The interaction also focused on strengthening skill training programmes for prison inmates, with the aim of supporting their rehabilitation and integration into the mainstream workforce through dignified and employable skills.
Such dialogues reflect a shared commitment to inclusive skilling, social reintegration and nation building. AOL-SSRDP continues to collaborate with government partners to create scalable skill development models that transform lives and open pathways to opportunity.
