In collaboration with Sri City, Tirupati's Sri Padmavati Mahila Visvavidyalayam (SPMVV), and Sri City's IIIT-Sri City, unique skill-development initiatives will be undertaken to prepare rural women for employment and entrepreneurship. Prof. Kannabhiran, Director of the IIIT, Prof. Duvvuru Jamuna, Vice Chancellor of the SPMVV, Dr. Mamatha, Registrar, and Dr. Ravindra Sannareddy, Founding Managing Director of Sri City, met on Thursday in Sri City for preliminary discussions on project implementation and other modalities to be completed for the execution of a highly advantageous project. The American Embassy in New Delhi, which is funding this project, would receive all assistance and support from Sri City. The project would initially include eight villages near Sri City, and more villages will be added later.
University representatives said they are surveying those areas to find out more about the women who need training. Programs for skill development will be organised in the communities in accordance with the preferences of the women. The project will formally launch soon after the survey, which is currently in progress. Ravindra Sannareddy expressed his enthusiasm for the project and vowed his full support, stating that Sri City is known as the "Sthree City" since women make up more than half of the workforce there. He also noted that the creative idea is designed to benefit women.
The varsity reps earned his praise for making the effort. Reddy used the occasion to give a presentation on how Sri City has changed the previously relatively backward region's economic look. He claims that Sri City has a positive impact on the area's socioeconomic development, employment opportunities, and educational opportunities.
"Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme aims to comprehensively develop the neighbourhoods, focusing on improving vital social parameters like access to quality education, better health services, social infrastructure, livelihood options and so on," he added.
Following the discussions, the university delegates went on a tour of a few Sri City businesses, including the Everton Tea factory, where 90% of the workers are rural women. The visiting team questioned the employees about the skill-development training they were receiving.
