Hyderabad: Valedictory Function for over 300 “Graduates” of the CAP-SARI/Equity Skills Program
The function which was held on 24 March 2006 in the premises of
the Police Academy presented the end of the beginning of a road to
self-confidence and respect from others and the beginning of gainful employment
and an independent life mainly for youths – male and female – who had
participated in the Teen-Channel Program and other market-oriented skills
training for several months and who all had found gainful employment or were
close to do so.
Since many of the “graduates” belonged to “migrant communities” and other highly
vulnerable segments of the population in and outside of Hyderabad, police
cooperation on a number of issues had been much welcome and had been provided
with generosity by many police officials. Their interest was clearly
demonstrated by the presence of the Director General of Police of Andhra
Pradesh and the highest officials of the Hyderabad Police.
SARI/Equity was present at the event and was able to witness the many
manifestations of gratitude and joy.
For the many facets of the event, please refer to the articles that appeared in
the Press.
