It was an honour to join the partners' conclave hosted by the Department of Higher Education, Govt of Karnataka. It was a day filled with excellent conversations on strategies to improve youth employability. I'm immensely grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from various organisations working on innovative programmes, and also share global evidence from the J-PAL network related to skills development, apprenticeships, and job matching at the conclave. Thank you very much for the opportunity Srikar Mysore Sridhar sir and Manjushree Narasimhaiah ma'am. Looking forward to more such discussions.

What a satisfying day! Had all our partners engaged in a fascinating discussion on how we can improve the quality of higher education in government colleges in Karnataka. More than 15 partners who are working with us pro-bono in various fields presented their plans. From skilling to employability, intellectual property to mentorship. The H'ble Minister Dr.M.C.Sudhakar stayed through the entire presentations which signalled our resolve. Hope to chalk out more meaningful partnerships in 2025.
