Target Group

Target Group For DEIS Activites

• DEIS's programmes are directed towards such productive groups who have fallen out of the formal HRD system and not found place in the organised sector.

• DEIS activities are especially targeted towards women by trying to place an alternative economic activity before them.

• DEIS believes that one should not condemn a substantial percentage of the new generation as failures -- as is happening in the formal education system-- but should build on their aspirations, motivations, talents and resources, so that instead of clamouring for organised sector jobs they can have alternative economic empowerment within their environment itself.

• DEIS programmes are also targetted towards school going children. These children are being imparted enterprise education so that this will increase option for them on leaving school to start viable economic income generating activities.
